USING THE SEWING MACHINE
One Who Does Much Sewing Should
See That Il 10 Always In
Perfect Condition.

When much machine work has to
be done. filling the shuttle Is a con-
slant annoyance. This can be part
ly obviated by threading the shuttle
with finer cotton than that used on
the needle. The sewing win be quite
as strong. and the shuttle will not
need refilling half 30 often as It
would If threaded with the same num-
Der of cotton as the needle, because
the spool will hold q great deal more
Of the finer cotton.
II you want your sewing machine
to do satisfactory work, remember
that It needs to be kept clean. After
every ten hours work 1t needs oil.
but all surplus oil must be carefully
wiped of af forwards. Always work
It steadily. and never start or stop
with q jerk.
One dressmaker, whose machines
are noted amongst her sewing girls
for their smooth and easy running,
oils them once in every three times
with parafan instead of the usual oil.
OF course she is careful that the ma
chimes are kept scrupulously clean. A
dirty machine can't be expected to do
good work.
When your machine IL not In use,
see that the wheels are left 90 that
the oil holes are at the top Of the.
hub. This will save clearing away
the superhuous oil. which trickles out
and causes the hub to catch the dust.
Before you begin to sew take an
odd piece Of material and stitch back
wards and forwards before commence
ing ordinary work. If any oil works
up with the needle. as 30 frequently
happens after oiling or cleaning, Il
will not spoil your material
Treat q machine as q delicate In
strument, and keep it away from
draughts and damp.

SERIOUS CATARRH
YIELDS TO HYOME|
YOU BREATHE 1T.

BE wise in time and use Hyomei at
the first symptom of catarrh, such as
frequent head colds, constant snuffling,
raising of mucous, or droppings in the
throat. Do not let the disease become
deep-seated and you are in danger Of
a serious if not fatal ailment.
There is no other treatment for
catarrh, head colds, etc, like the Hyo-
mel method. none just as good, so easy
and pleasant TO use, or that gives
such quick. sure, and lasting relief
You breathe it--no stomach dosing.
Wortley & French will refund your
money if you are not benefited.
Try Hyomei at once and see how
quickly it clears the head, stops the
shifting, and banishes catarrh. Hyo-
mel helps you to enjoy good health.

REV. Bliss SON HAD
NARROW ESCAPE IN
FIRE At WINNIPEG
DESCENDED FROM SIXTH STORY
OVER HOT PIPES AND FIRE
ESCAPES.

Rev. w. a. Bliss received a letter
from his son Charles II. at Winnipeg,
Manitoba, last week telling of a fire
that occurred in the building where he
has his office Charles is manager Of
a teachers bureau or agency in that
city and had his office on the sixth
floor of the building. When the fire
broke out he directed the stenographer
to leave her books and hurry out Of
the building. He remained TO look up
some Of the records and arrange to
carry others with him. When he ar
rived at the elevator he found the
flames coming up the shaft making
escape from that quarter impossible.
Going back to the Office he decided
that there would be no other way for
him to get out except to break his
way through the rooms of other ten
ants until he could reach the fire es-
cape.
The first door was broken through
and then he hurried on to the window.
1t would not yield to his strength and
he plunged through 1t leaving part Of
his trousers hanging TO the ragged
edges of the broken glass. Young
Bliss then descended the fire escape
for two stories when the flames eros
sed the ladder so thickly that he was
compelled to enter the building again.
From a window he found that the on
/ ly means of escape would be to jump
for an iron pipe several feet away.
The firemen had difficulty in running
up the ladder and when the hose
Kicked" one of them dropped the
nozzle at critical time. Only one or
two minutes efficient work with the
hose at that time would have exiting
uished the flames in that part of the
uilding.
Going to the window Bliss jumped
for the pipe and was successful in
grasping it, AS he began to slide
down the pipe a window broke and
the glass from il filed his hands. The
sliding on the glass left his hands bad
~ cut and slashed. Finally he reach
ed the ground and went to a drug store
where the wounded hands were dres-
sed. lie breathed so heavily of the
smoke and flames that fear was felt
by the physician that pneumonia
might set in If he was not very care
full for a few days.
Everyone got out of the building
alive but there were some very mar
row escapes. One man jumped from
the sixth story onto a network of tele-
phone wires. He then worked his way
along the wires until he reached the
pole when he climbed down 1t to safe
~. Another man jumped from the
fourth story window and was caught
in net. He is expected to live.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bliss are very anxious
about their son, but as he is under
the care of an expert physician they
are very hopeful that he will get along
all right. The wounded hands will be
well within a few days. In the acct
dent Mr.. Bliss lost his overcoat and
six dollars in money.

\ Dcadenin0 Habit.

A fault-finding, criticising habit is
fatal to all excellence. Nothing will
strangle growth quicker than a ten
dency to hunt for flaws, to rejoice in
the unlovely, like a hog which always
has his nose in the mud and rarely
looks up. The direction in which we
look indicates the life aim, and people
who are always looking for something
to criticise, for the crooked and the
ugly, who are always suspicious, who
invariably look at the worst side Of
others, are but giving the world pic
ture of themselves.
This disposition to see the worst in
