lime to EIaht Mice.

The time to fight mice Is when your
house is still rid of them. First mike
n hard and fnst rule that not crumb
of food is left exposed in kitchen,
pantry or cupboard. See also that in
the bedrooms of your home no waters
or other tasty bits are left where
mouse might get them and thus find
encouragement to take up his perma-
nent abode there
The next thing to do is to cut Off the
means of entrance to your home. and
this is done by seeing that there are
no loose passageways into the cellar
or open cavities In the wall or loose
woodwork. AS n final resource you
will perhaps have to choose between
mouse trap and cat. 1t all de-
pends on your affinity for the feline
pet which you will do. But remember
that, whereas permitting mice to lodge
In your house was formcly only an
act Of slothful neglect, 1t Is now one
of the crimes of wastefulness,. Of
which no patriotic woman should be
guilty.-Exchange
