TO GET SERVICE FROM LAMP
Certain Rules for Its Care Must Be
Observation-Disclosures Fill in
Daytime.

A housewife who has to use lamps
will keep the >wicks from smoking.
If the wick Is soaked in vinegar be-
fore it is put in the lamp, and thor
oughly dried, it will not smoke. The
bowl of the lamp should be kept full
of oil; but when the lamp Is not in
use, the wick should be turned down
low, to keep the oil from oozing out
upon the burner.
The common kerosene lamp which
is used in almost every household
will give bright, clear light, and 1T
will be q source of comfort to the
family if properly kept. Never use
inferior burners. They are cheaper
at first, but they soon get out of fix.
so the wicks cannot be turned up
or down, and do not give good
light. A clean lamp gives no disa-
greeable odor when burning.
Lamp chimneys are not liable to
break upon exposure to changes of
temperature If they are put in pan
of cold water and allowed to heat
gradually until the water is boiling
hot. When you wish to clean the
f1ues, wash them in suds made by dis
solving cleansing powder in hot water,
rinse in clean, warm water, and wipe
dry with old newspaper. See that the
tiues all fit closely. Lamps should
always be filled by daylight; and al
ways put in new wick before the
old one is burned out.

QUEER QUALITY or MODESTY
Little Dissertation on One of the
Strangest Attributes Known to the
Human Race.

Modesty is a quality mainly notice
able in folks who would lose by hay'
ing attention called to themselves.
The most modest man we know has
two or three other names on his wait
ing list, and there are, oh! SO many
places he can't go Mt all.
Greatness is characterized by a ten
dency to efface oneself. This is true OF
great modesty also. The man we know
who claims the most mOdesty has one
of the sorts of modesty that has Ell,
faced itself so utterly it must be very
great modesty. One wouldn't notice
that mans modesty at all unless ones
attention were called to it, as it is sure
to be by the owner thereof.
The girl with ankles too thick or toe
thin is modest about them. She doesn't
care much what color of hose she
wears, and she keeps her skirts low
Also, if her neck and shoulders are
scrawny she thinks these one-more-
struggle-and-I-am-fr gowns are i'm
modest. In fact, she is sure of it. We
have it on good authority that the
homeliest of the Turkish women are
the ones who manage to maintain the
custom of going about yelled to the
eyes.
Animals are not expected to be mod
est, and think nothing about those
things, so they are comparatively
happy. They escape modesty while
they live and hell when they die.
Some people are not modest about
telling of their ability, but are extreme
ly modest about displaying it after
they get the job. Their modesty van
ishes again. temporarily, at each pay
day.
synonyms for modesty are self-de-
Tense. timidity. laziness, hope-of-at-
cting-attention-to oneself by pre-
tending-to-be-so, etc.
We know absolutely nothing of mod
esty, except by hearsay.-Judge.

Repairing Steel Rods.

A broken steel rod may frequently
be repaired by very simple process.
Usually the ends Of the tube where
broken have become somewhat
pinched or distorted. If this is the
case insert the tang of file or any
other convenient tool in the opening
and by trimming around and around
the circular croSs-Section can be re-
stored. A pair of pliers judiciously
used may help in this operation. Then
with the file smooth the face of the
break square across. Take a piece
of wire slightly larger than the in
terror of the tube and file it to tight
fit. Heat the broken end of the tube
so as to expand it slightly. 1t need
not be heated so much as to destroy
the temper. A very moderate heat will
expand it considerably. Warm one
end of the prepared wire. Cover it
with a bit of solder and while the lat
ter is still soft push the wire down
into the tube for half it's length. Re-
peat with the other side of the break.
A drop of the solder run around where
the two ends of the break come to-
gether will make all smooth and COM
plete the repairs.-Outer's Book.

From the Top Of a Hill.

Never shall l forget the panorama
that spread before us! The four thin
ranks of the second company seemed
to stagger drunkenly through a sea
of green fire and smoke. One moment
gaps showed in the lines, only to be
closed again as the rear files spurted.
Undoubtedly they ran at top speed,
but to us watchers they seemed to
crawl, and at times almost to stop.
Mixed in with the dark green of the
grass covering the valley were rows
of lighter color, telling of the men who
fell in that mad sprint. The contin-
uous bombardment sounded like a
giant drum beating an incredibly swift
rata-plan. Along the whole length of
our hill this curtain of shells was
dropping, leveling the forest, and
seemingly beating off the very face of
the hill itself, clear down to the bot
tom of the valley. Owing to the prox-
unity of our troops to the enemy's bat
teries, we received hardly any support
from our own big guns, and the role
of the combatants was entirely re-
versed. The Germans had their in
nings then, and full well they worked.

Feathered Refugees.

Never has Paris seen so many swal-
lows as have appeared since the war
began. Everywhere one sees them
among trees on the boulevards, in the
public gardens, flying about the gar
goyles of Notre Dame. 1t is strange
to see these birds, whom one associ-
ates with fields and the plain country,
darling in and out among the traffic
of city's streets; they do not seem
to belong, as an American said to me.
They are refugees of the air, chased
from their ancient haunts by the roar
of cannon and the noise of battle in
Belgium and the north of France.
When the cry of the northern spring
brought them back from their pilgrim
age in sunny lands, it was to find
their old nests destroyed, their old
landmarks lost, and in the air a hor-
rid clamor of terrifying sounds. So
they emigrated en- masse, and many
thousands of them have found a new
home in green Paris of the trees.

MADE TROUBLE FOR WRITER
Publishers Advice Caused Suspicion
to Settle on Author Who Had
Nothing on His Conscience.

A man whose country place was near
a small town recently became con-
scious of most suspicious glances upon
him by his friends and acuqaintances.
Then he became aware that his foot
steps were logged.
A constable was occasionally seen
around his house, and subsequently a
stranger. who afterward turned out
to be detective, appeared. Tortured
and troubled, the gentleman at last
asked friend the meaning of it all.
Don't you know" said he, they
suspect you of murder|
"Of murder!" said the Mortified man.
"What do you mean"
"You received post card last
week."
Every likely 1 received Dozen"
But on this post card was written
these words: "Be sure and save the
child. but kill the mother and the
postmaster read"
But at this smile, ending In a guf-
faw, broke in upon the dialogue. The
post card had come from magazine
editor, for whom the gentleman had
written a story, which the editor
wanted amended according to these di-
rectiOnS.

HOW TO FREEZE DESSERTS
With Proper Supply of Ice and Coarse
Rock Salt the Process Is Com
paratively Simple.

With ice-cream freezer, burlap bag,
wooden mallet or AK, small saucepan,
sufficient ice and coarse rock salt, the
process neither takes much time nor
patience. Crush the Ice finely by plac-
ing in bag and giving a few blows
with mallet or broadside Of Ak. If
there are coarse pieces, remove them.
Place can containing mixture to be
frozen in wooden tub, cover and ad-
Just top. Turn crank to make sure can
fits in socket. Allow three level meas
ures of Ice to one of salt, and re-
peat until ice and salt come to top of
can, packing solidly, using handle Of
mallet to force it down. If only small
quantity is frozen the ice and salt
need come only little higher in the
tub than mixture to be frozen. These
are found the best proportions of ice
and salt to insure fne-grained cream.
sherbet, or water ice, while equal parts
of salt and ice are used for freezing
frappe.
The mixture increases in bulk dur
ing freezing. so the can should never
be more than three-fourths filled; by
Overcrowding the can cream will be
made coarse grained. Turn the crank
slowly and steadily to expose as large
Il surface Of mixture as possible to ice
and salt. After frozen to a mush, the
crank may be turned more rapidly,
adding more ice and salt If needed.
Never draw off salt water until mix
ture is frozen. Unless there is posi-
bility of it's getting into the can, for
salt water is what effects the freezing
until ice melts, no change will take
place. After freezing is accomplished,
draw off water, remove dasher, and
with spoon pack solidly. Put cork in
opening Of cover, then put on cover.
Repack freezer, using four measures
of ice to one of salt. Place over top
newspapers or piece Of carpet; when
serving time comes remove can, wipe
carefully and place in vessel Of cool
water; let stand one minute, remove
cover, and run q knife around edge
Of cream, invert can on serving dish,
and frozen mixture will slip out.
Should there be any difficulty, cloth
wrung out in hot water, passed over
can, will aid in removing mixture.

The Difference,

Bishop Naphtali Luccock was talk
ing in Helena about golfers.
"a Sunday golfer" he said, rang
the bell at a manse Sunday morning
and asked to leave her golf sticks
there during the service.
"I can't hardly let you do that,
said the minister.
"'Rut,' the Sunday golfer objected,
you've got sign on the church porch
to the effect that bicyclists can leave
their machines at the manse during
service, haven't you?
ayes, ma'am, / have the minister
answered. You can ride to church on
a bicycle, you know but you can't on
a golf stick-unless you happen to be
a WITCH"

TO COOK SPINACH
VEGETABLE DESERVES SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS.
One of the Best and Most Healthfui
That Is Grown-Various Ways
Of Preparing II for the
Table.

Spinach is a standby at all times
of the year. 1t can be prepared In
many ways, but the basis of them all
is the first careful looking over, wash
ing and boiling.
AS rule, the spinach, after wash.
ing, contains enough water to start
the boiling, after which it will boil in
its own liquid.
Special care should be exercised in
the drainage, because nothing is more
of spinach. 1t should always be
drained in colander and after that
can either be cut with a knife or
rubbed through coarse sieve.
The simplest way to serve spinach
is to drain well, season with pepper,
salt and little butter. Boil two eggs
hard and slice over the top and serve
hot.
Spinach and cream.-One quart
spinach, one tablespoonful butter,
three tablespoonfuls of cream. pepper
and salt After the spinach has been
boiled, and passed through wire sieve,
make the butter hot in a saucepan, add
the spinach, pepper and salt to taste.
Stir it over the fire and add the cream.
If cream Is not available, white sauce
may be used instead.
Spinach and Poached Eggs.-Pre-
pare and cream the spinach as in the
preceding recipe, put into q fiat dish
and lay three poached and well drained
eggs on the top and garnish with crou-
tons of fried bread.
Spinach and Gravy.-One quart spin
ach, one tablespoonful butter, one ia
blespoonful flour, four tablespoonful
good gravy, pepper and salt. Prepare
the spinach as usual. Stir the flour
with the butter in a saucepan for two
minutes. Add the spinach, pepper and
salt to taste. and as much gravy as
possible, without making it soft. Stir
over the fire until very hot. Dish and
garnish with croutons.

Had Reason for Labor.

One day Chinese philosopher was
meditating in the fields outside the
city Of Tientsin. He noticed q woman
weeping bitterly beside fresh grave,
which she was tanning vigorously. He
was touched by her evident grief, and
said:
ooh. sorrowful one. what is your
trouble?"
''Your Honorable Excellency. my
husband is dead"
"No doubt he was good husband,
and you are to be pitied, but why are
you tanning his graves"
Exalted one" replied the woman
and her voice choked with sobs-'my
husband made me promise not to mar
ry again until his grave was dry"

character. The question is not what

patience, harshness, falsehood, and

the tree of life. our whole being will
grow toward spirituality and heaven

Tuberculosis.

Doctors are now Of opinion that
consumption is not inherited, but that
some families have tendency to con-
tract it. They are also of opinion that
q child catches the disease from its
father or mother, just in the same way
as tuberculous person may infect q
healthy person if they live together
In other words, the child is infected
after birth. 1t is now established that
consumption is most infectious, and
that the greatest care should be exer-
ciscd by persons who come into con-
tact with consumptives. so as to avoid
infection.

Substitute for whipped Cream,

When 1t is impossible to have
whipped cream, a delicious substitute
may be made as follows: Beat the
whites of two eggs very stiff, slice
evenly one banana, add to the eggs and
beat until thoroughly dissolved. Sweet
en- to taste with powdered sugar. The
richness of taste and the creamy color
make this the equal of whipped cream.
With some leftover slices of cake, 1t
makes good emergency dessert.
