PROPER STORAGE OF FLOUR
Easily Taken Precautions VIII insure
the Absence Of tho Pestllent
White Worm.

When -four is stored In quantity, or
even when bought in small supplies,
care is needed to guard against the
presence Of that pest, the little white
-four worm.
p Before putting away new flour, thor
oughly clean the receptacle, being
sure that not ss particle of the old
-four remains. It Is the old flour that
is left, even though 1t may be very
small amount, that causes these
marauders. ....
II the -four is kept In tin the tik
must be washed with absolutely clean
water and q good soap, and great care
must be taken that the tin Is entirely
dry before putting in the flour. If o
wooden holder, or bin is used 1t must
be cleaned by brushing and airing.
When flour is bought in paper bags,
it Ia we'll to look carefully in the
creases of the paper at top of bag be-
fore untying, for here are found the
white -four worms, II there are any at
all, and these can be removed without
their getting into the -four. But, when
a bag is simply opened and turned
into a bin, they are In this way In the
bottom, and In short time will work
their way all through the flour.

VALUE OF CARD CATALOGUE
'system Makes for Effioleney In House

to Economy.

Few women outside Of business and
academic circles realize the conven-
tence or the card catalogue system
One energetic woman who had
! been very successful secretary,
made an efficient housekeeper and
ihomemsker because she remembered
In her married Life the devices that
had helped her in business. She had
! a number Of catalogues to indicate
the state Of her household supplies
linen, etc.-but the most interesting
OF all was her card catalogue cook
book and menu index. 1t was just
like a library catalogue, being com
posed Of a couple of little drawers
In little cabinet filed with cards
on which we're typed recipes. These
cards were grouped under appropriate
heads and made readily accessible
headed, Dinner, Soups, Entrees.
Salads, Meats and Desserts. When
faced with the awful problem What
shall we have to eat today7" she sim
ply ran through her cards for the
meal In question and often found the
recipe for a dish she had quite for
gotten about. For use as a cook book,
this arrangement is much more con-
venient than the old book form. The
collection of recipes grows rapidly too.
as 1t is 30 easy to paste on a card q
newspaper suggestion or a recipe
from household magazine, and slip
the card into its proper place where
it does not get lost, as loose papers
have habit Of doing. The catalogue
outfit is quite inexpensive and the
utility Of the scheme will certainly
repay the original trouble of making

spLENDoRs OF SPACE.
Matchless Beauty of the Milky Way as
Seen In a Telescope.

The MILKY way, or galaxy. is an ap-
parent ring extending entirely around
the universe of stars visible in the
suns in literal millions. They are so
remote that. as seen from the earth.
they appear to be close TO each other.
while really they are separated by
millions and billions of miles. To the
eye the belt OF soft light looks like
continuous band of cloth of pearl but
telescopes have the effect of bringing
objects nearer. This separates the
flmy cloud into many millions of gilt
tering but minute points on the black
background of space. At distance
forest trees seem to be close together,
but as they are approached they sep
arate and stand alone.
1t is next TO impossible to describe
the matchess beauty of the Milky
way as seen in Il telescope of great
power Carpet a large room with
black velvet Hang many electric
lights In the ceiling Throw down and
scatter all over the black floor busheI
of minute diamonds. rubies. pearls.
saphires. opals. amethysts and other
gems. Then turn on the light.
You would have a faint imitation of
the supernal glories OF the galactic
hosts. For the appalling depths of
space look black in our great tele-
scopes In places these suns look by
perspective as though they were ar
ranged in piles. heaps and banks or
built up into colossal windows. or
twisted into spirals. or dashed into
wisps and cosmic spray. In some
places the concentration Is so great
and dense that only the most power
full telescopes on earth can magnify
enough to bring out details. A few
clusters exist that have not 30 far
been resolved into these needle points
And the height Of human happiness
is to watch these vast congeries Of
distant suns in hinge telescope

of wood. pieces of bark and small
twigs are the more common. but in

these are so well petri6ed as to show

In Arizona whole trees are petrified.
and. in fact. whole forests have been
turned into stone. and some wonderful
specimens are to be found there. The
petritied trees are sometimes cut up
and converted into various articles OF
