HINTS ABOUT SEWING.

Alcohol is fine thing to take old oil
and dust out Of q sewing machine. Hold
a small piece Of absorbent cotton in q
small pair Of pinehers and dip It in the
alcohol and with It one can easily reach
in around the cogs and wheels.
When drawn work wears out. sew q
piece Of insertion over II and cut the
goods away from under IL.
A good way to find where to Join q
waist and skirt is to put the waist on,
tie down with tape then arrange as you
want II, then mark with a piece of
chalk at the top Of the string. Nov trim
OF one-half inch below mark and Join
to skirt. For a high waistline trim of
one or two inches above chalk line, or a.
high as you want skirt TA
When working buttonholes in dark ma
terial rub over with white chalk after
cutting: one can easily see where to put
the next stitch on the white background.
Use colored ohalk for white goods
When IL J.; necessary to patch any.
thing that Is double. such as q trousers
leg, turn the garment inside out and put
a piece of cardboard between the goods
under the hole. Spread It out smooth
on table and haste patch on; the card
board will prevent the other side Of gar
ment from being stitched fast to hole
and the patch will be in proper place to
60 on and sew down.

WAR AGAINST FLIES.

Do not wait until the flies are firmly
established in the house before putting
up screens and providing fly paper. There
should be fly brush in every room and
1t should be ruthlessly used upon every
single fly which dares to appear.
Do you know that IL the seasons
progeny Of a single pair of flies could
all live and be massed together they
would fill a space as large as the great
est sky scraper? In length this number
OF flies originating from the same par
ents would make road loo miles lon,,
and three miles deep. running about
100000 miles from the earth to the
sun.
The two diseases most apt to be car
NED by flies are typhoid and diarrhoea
OF Infants. and as q determined cam
paign against living files and thorough
cleaning away of refuse heaps would
eliminate the evil 1t seems worth while
to make the attempt.

Teach Children Their Names

Perhaps once In every decade. fortu.
nately not much oftener. the kidnapping
Of an innocent little child makes ever,
mother shudder and draw her little onel
closely to her side, wondering how she
could stand the misery of having one OF
them snatched from her to an unknown
fate.
i About the first words q child should be
taught when he begins to speak words
at all. are his name and address These
/ should be told over and over again and
asked many times until they are so firm-
Iy inculcated in the child's mind thai
1t would take more than ordinary rea-
sons to cause them to be forgotten.
The second important item to teach q
| child is not to be afraid Of a police
| man. 1t must oe remembered that more
ara forcibly abducted and II they should
do this and get lost they ought to know
that Mr.. Policeman viii take care OF
them until mother comes.
Little children, who have been sur
rounded with loving care at home. do
not realize that such kindness is not to
be met everywhere. It is a hard thing
| to have to tell a child that human be-
ings are not always to be trusted and
that they must not confide in nor listen
to strangers whom they meet.
1t is a necessary precaution. however,
to make a child clearly understand this,
especially II 1t Is OF q friendly disposi-
ton.
One often hears q foolish nurse or
mother say pettishly: IF you don't
mind the policeman will take you away
and lock you up." 1t Is all very well to
induce proper respect for the law in
a child for the sake of its future behav-
ior. but IL 10 possible to teach a child
that SO long as he commits no nuisance
the policeman is his best friend
do not say that child's knowledge
Of his own residence nor his friendli-
ness with the man on his beat will pre-
vent his being kidnapped. but it will GER
tainly lessen the chances Of his gettins
lost, and perhaps cause his return by a
possible thief You will remember that
when Charlie Ross was stolen his broth
er was taken too and would probably
have been as completely lost as the
young child. had ne not been old enough
to know his name and describe his ab-
ductors-
OF course a child may forget his own
name or that of his parents under fright
or nl-treatment, but in q moment of
quiet such Information may return to
mind and lead to a recovery.
The sense of direction can be taught
very young by simply pointing out land
IIdEhb III Tic Nftluils- n Cufiu enouiu
ways be taught. guardedly 1t Is true, such
familiar surroundings as a big tree near
by or q store at the corner or q bridge
not far away. Such powers of observa-
ton from training will prove valuable
in after life not only in case of getting
lost. but also in business or professional
lines. It is q great gift to remember
places and directions, to recognize~faces
to recall scenery, to be able to paint or
draw or write from memory. While
many people can, by nature. remember
the smallest details. in other cases it
comes from early training. which must.
in most cases. be fostered by the mother
of the child from the time 1t leaves its
cradle.

FORESIGHT HELPS IN MARKETING

Where shopping In concerned one might
divide people into two ciasses-those who
shop to live and those who live to shop.
The latter have no greater delight than
to 20 shopping from morning to night.
while the former class regard shopping
as troublesome duty that must be en-
dured.
However. there fs a real art in shop
ping. and 1t is one Of those arts which.
for the most part, must be learned from
personal experience, though the wise
woman can save herself a good many
pitfalls by the exercise Of q little fore
thought
The question of cash and credit scarce
ly enters into this precise matter, though
In passing II may be said that the
woman who pays for things usually gets
better value for her money than IL she
had things charged-while the cash sys-
tenn gives one q much better understand
Ing OF the financial position.
When q woman is going out shopping
1t IL well to decide beforehand exactly
what things are to be bought-and to
buy Just those things.
1t Is great advantage to have a
shopping slate or tablet in the house
upon which can be written down various
things that need to be bought II salt In
getting low. or II one goes to use the
black cotton and finds there is not any.
the fact should be noted Immediately on
the slate.
Before going out shopping, consult the
HIST OF things on the slate, take a final
mental survey Of the house. and prepare
fun and complete list of the things to
be bought.
1t 10 well for this list to be drawn I'D
IN . systematic way. with a view to
economizins labor when the actual shop
ping Ii in progress. For example. IL two
shops are almost next door to each other,
do not put one at the beginning and the
other at the end Of the list, or a lot of
time and enersy-and temper-will be
lost.

teach q child to talk over the telephone;
not only to talk. but to call up. This
should not be allowed At any and all sea-

ator, but in case of an emergency IL In

Otherwise 1t is as well for a child to be
able to call up as in case of fire or
accident IL Is an added protection.
1t Is all very well not to allow q
child to become fearful and distrustful,
but alas, it is obligatory to teach self
preservation and independence for the
sake of all concerned

When crocheting wear a piece Of court

To break in a new pen point quickly,
dip it in ink and hold 1t in the flame of

western end of the Tener circuit.
Good weather can be looked for
from now on, and~t long home stay
means there will be plenty of oppor-
tunity for morning practice. O'Day
will be able to weld the infield to-
gether, and the batters will be en-
abled to swing against the pitching of
the good local second string men. If
the team does not profit from this
schooling, then there is no hope.
There is enough mechanical ability
present to make a good showing. 1t
needs polishing and practice.
An evidence of the weak batting
came in the very first inning at st.
Louis yesterday. Leach and Good
opened with singles and Sweeney
sacrificed. That put men on second
and third with one out, and two fam
ed clouters, Zimmerman and Schultz,
coming to bat.
And see what happened. 1t took
only three pitched balls for Doak to
fan Zim. Heinie swung at all of them,
and they were good pitches. That
0hO"o Ihc1C LID eye ID hOI u uC yet.
Then came Schultz, and he repeated
the Zim performance. Two of the best
Cub batters whitfield with budding
runs on second and third. A single
meant two and long fly from Zim
one
Other chances were presented lat
er, but the timely hit was not forth
coming. .-z
HUMPHREYS pitched as good brand
of stuff as he ever did in his life. He
allowed seven hits and granted one
pass. Both of the Card runs were the
direct results of errors.
In one session Bresnahan threw a
man out at second. The umpire voted
him dead, but Zim dropped the ball
and the decision was reversed. Then
came a single that scored run which
should not have been in position to
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-04-21

to sail for home. He recovered and
made a peg which should have extin-
guished Cruise. But Bresnahan, who
has had little practice, and was reliev-
ing Archer because of a stone bruise,
let the ball get away, and a run
counted.
These unfortunate happenings will
not be so frequent when the team has
had a chance to get in shape. Ten
Cubs famed
Bob Groom, formerly of Washing
ton, was too much for Tinker's Feds,
and Mordecai Browns crew won the
first game. Claude Hendrix was al
most as good as Groom. He couldn't
win when his mates weren't batting,
though plenty of openings were pre-
sented through which they should
have oozed victory.
At one time the Chifeds filled the
bases with none out, but Wickland,
Farrell and Hendrix were breezed by
Groom's wide bending floater. In be-
tween these unfortunate happenings
a pass was handed to Wilson, result
ing in the lone Tinker run.
At present Brown has one of the
best teams in the Federal circuit. The
club is a clouting aggregation, and
the fielding is acceptable to the most
exacting. Getting licked by the Bird
well Ward Miller Boucher Drake
Hartley combination is no disgrace,
particularly when Groom, who was
puzzle to every team in the American
League is on the mound.>
RoIIie Zeider has not yet begun to
do the brand of batting he is capable
of. When Rollie joins the clouting
ranks headed by Wickland, Zwilling
and Tinker there will be another
story. Then it will be possible for
the former Sox favorite to show his
