Things Learned by Expert
enCe.

To Open Fruit Jars The best
way to open glass fruit jars with
out using knife to loosen the top
is to take hot stove lid and place
it on top of cover for two or three
minutes. This will allow of the
tops being easily unscrewed and
will not injure the cover in the
least. The metal tops in this way
can be used again and again with
no fear of fruit spelling, while if
knife is used for the purpose, it
ID likely to make the metal cover
uneven, 30 that it will not fit
smoothly upon the grooves of
the jar.
Household Uses For Kerosene

kerosene and then dipped in boil
ing water can be easily removed
without injury to the goods. Wind
ows cleaned with kerosene have a
beautiful gloss. Sewing machines
will be like new if plentIfully sat.
urated with kerosene and left over
night, then run rapidly for few
minutes, wiped clean and oiled
with a good machine oil. Kerosene
oil is also the least expensive and
best cleanser of the tubs aud Law
atory, while dust mops and cloths
dipped in kerosene aud hung in
the air for awhile will take up the
dust and shake out far better than
when the different recommended
oils are used.
When asbestos table mats are
soiled and unfit for table use, try
laying them for a few minutes on
a glowing fire in the furnace,
handling them carefully with a
garden fork; they will come out
with the dirt burned off and

Sundays Tribute to Moth

er Love.

L once read the story Of an an.
gel who stole out from Heaven aud
came to this world one bright,
sunshiDy day; roamed through
field, Forest city and hamlet, and
as the sup went down, plumed bis
wings for the return flight. The
angel said, "Now, that my visit
is over, before go | must gather
some mementoes of my trip" He
looked at the beautiful flowers IN
he garden and said: GLOW lovely
and fragrant" and plucked the
rarest roses, made a bouquet aud
said, 81 zee nothing more fragrant
than these flowers The angel
looked further and saw a bright
eyed, rosy checked child, and said
THAT baby Is prettier than the
flowers; | will take that too" and
looking beyond the cradle he saw
d mothers love, pouring out over
her babe like a gushing spring,
and the angel said: The mothers
love Is the prettiest thing | have
seen, | will take that too" and
with these three treasures the
heaven v messenger winged his
flight to the pearly gates, say ing (:
Before | 60 in | must examine
the mementoes of my trip to the
EARTH" He looked at the flowers;
they had withered. He looked at
the baby's smile; it had faJed.
he looked at the mothers love,
and it shone in all it's pristine
beauty. Then he threw away the
withered flowers, cast aside the
faded smile, and with the moth.
er's love pressed to his breast,
swept through the gates of the
city, shouting come aud see
the only thing L found on earth
that would retain it's fragrance
from there to here.
