As to food, don't eat rich, highly

thing to wash it every night at bed

Preserving Butterflies

Dear Margery Doom:
Can you tell me how to preserve
butterflies? AGNES Med.
After chloroforming and being sure
that the butterfly is dead lay the
butterfly on its back, then thrust a
needle through the body near the
head. pinning 1t to board. With
another needle commence with the
right hand upper wing, placing 1t al
proper angle to suit your taste
then follow the same course WITH
lower right wing. Pin down left sid.
In same manner Take narrow strip,
of tough paper and lay over the ex-
tended wings, fasten upper end of
the paper with needle, pull taut,
fastening this end with another
needle; then remove the two needles
from the two wings which have been
fastened down before the paper was
placed on them. Go through the same
procedure with left wing. After the
butterfly is thoroughly pinned down
take n very narrow strip of paper,
laying this across the body of the
butterfly just under the needle, pin
ming both ends snugly. Then care
fully remove the needle from the body
which held the butterfly to the board; !;
let II remain about a week or more.
No preservatives are needed.

Ninety-one large municipalities in
the United States have established
public swimming pools to meet the
demand for knowledge of swimming.
Swimming pools are on the increase.
The United States Public Health Ser
vice publishes an article by Wallace
A. Manheimer, Phi. d., of Columbia
University, on the results obtained
from a careful examination of six
swimming pools.
1t is pointed out in the report that
in swimming in polluted water. ty-
phoid fever, conJunctivities and other
diseases may be acquired. The report
gives in detail the results of the bac-
terial analyses made Of the various
pools and of the effects OF refiltration
and chemical disinfection. It is point
ed out that when the water lis un-
filtered 1t is apt to be cloudy, thereby
making the danger of accidental
drowning very great. When refiltra-
tion is practiced the water becomes
clear and this danger is obviated.
The report concludes that tho cubic
capacity Of a pool affects its sanitary
condition: that the process OF adding
dilution water is an efficient means Of

, reducing the number of bacteria in
tho water, and that the supervision
of the plant and the ella ss of atten-
dants are also important factors in
pool sanitation. The combination Of
refiltration and disinfection by the
use of calcium hypo-chlorite renders
the sanitary condition of the water
excellent Many of the colleges and
secondary schools of the United
States have as graduation require

important field of athletics should be

Inconsistency rising within me. When
he had found that Katie, whom I had
engaged as cook, was the girl who had
formerly done the housework In the
bachelor apartment which he had
shared with three other artists, he had
been delighted.
Now I'll have the chance to finish
that painting of Poland, for which she
was posing when she disappeared, he
had said to me, and added, For
heavens sake, Madge, keep her. Put
up with anything from her until after

l remembered the words as II he
had just spoken them. The memory
of them tinged my speech as | replied: ::
You surely do not suppose I Ike
her manner any better than you do.
But you told me to put up with any
thing from her. SO that she would stay
until after you had finished that
painting for which she was posing.
There Is no surer way OF making her
angry than to try to tone her down,
as you express 1t. She is positively
irrepressible, and, to do the girl JUS
tice, / believe II is not freshness, but
ignorance and high spirits"

Old Isaac was very much pleased
when he found that John really
wished to help him, so they put out
the lights and waited.
They did not have long to wait, for
soon they saw the boys creeping
along the road and up to the barn,
ana then n tiny flame sprang up.
John was out of the house In O
second, but the boys did not recog-
nize him because he wore one of Old
lsaac's caps and coat.
When the boys came to the house
old Isaac opened the door before they
could start the fire there, and when
they found he had someone to help
him the boys ran and did not come
back.
John stayed while and talked
with old Isaac, who showed him his
collection of birds and animals
which he had found either dead or
dying.
The next day John met the boys
who had set the fire by old Isaac's
barn, and they told John he should
have been along to share the fun.
There wasn't much fun, though" ;"
said one. "Old Isaac had someone
there to help him, so we ran off,"
II think we ought to be ashamed to
plague the old man." said John. "fIe
never has done anything to us, and
just suppose the barn had caught fire
and burned to the ground. 1 guess
You fellows would have been sorry
Or II the old mans clothes had caught
fire and he had been burned, know
none of you would have wanted that
to happen"
I'VE never thought of that" said
one of the boys. I'VE wanted some
fun and to see old Isaac scamper
back and forth"
So the boys agreed never to call
old Isaac names or bother him
again.
One day old Isaac met John on the
street. Don't you go to school2"
asked old Isaac, "or are you out just
for the day?"
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1915-09-28

mo, sir; I had to leave school. I
hated to do 1t, but mother cannot do
enough work to support us, and !

her. so l went to work yesterday In
Mr.. Browns store. I am to drive the
order wagon, and II / can do as well
as the man who left I am to have a
mans pay after a month, which l
think is pretty fair"
Old Isaac did not answer for a
minute. He stood thinking, and then
he said: us your mother at home
now7"
John told him she was, and old
Isaac walked home with him.
II have come to see IL we can make
some arrangement so this boy can go
to school and finish his education"
old Isaac said to Johns mother.
"I am getting old and need some
one to help about the house. Besides
that am tired of doing my cooking
If you can rent your house 1 will
build an addition to mine and you
can move your furniture In the new
part and / can live In the old part.
John can help about the place before
and after school and that will pay
for his board. l will pay you for
keeping my house and that will be
enough for you and John to dress on.
What do you say2"
John and his mother were too as
tonished to reply for a minute, and
then John said: II am sure mother
thinks your offer as generous and
splendid as l do"
Johns mother said she would be
only too glad to keep old Isaac's
house and let John go to school, and
so it was arranged that John was to
go back to school at once, and as
soon as the house was ready they
were to move into old Isaac's home.
Old Isaac did not live to see John
finish his education, but he left all
his money to John, which made quite
large sum, so John went to college
as old Isaac had wished him to do

Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
Again l want advice, and this time
1t is q serious matter. My little
daughter has been attending school
for three weeks and last week she
came home with nits in her hair.
WORRIED MOTHER.
Wash the head, of course, once every
four weeks, and through the inter-
vening four weeks comb and lightly
brush the hair, arranging 1t twice a
day. Sometimes when sitting close to
fellow passengers on trolleys you may
get one of these unmentionables in
your head, as they travel quickly. If
you are careful to groom your hair
there Is little danger. If you find
anything in your comb that gives
evidence of such a condition of the
head, buy cents worth of oil of
sassafras and dip your fingers in the
oil, rub 1t over your hair and on your
scalp. The vermin will die, also the
eggs. and the cure Is not in the least
unpleasant, for 1t has a refreshing,
cleanly odor.
Be careful to give full maine and
address In writing this department or
your questions are not likely to be

Use one teaspoonful of this recipe to
each quart of water, bathing the
