Canning has not only become the
favorite occupation but the favorite
recreation. when the Tired Bus ness
Man gets home at night to the bosom
Of his family and asks. said bosom
what she has been doing all day. not
that he cares or even listens to her
answer, he Is due these days for tho
surprise Of his tired business life.
In the olCen times OF course he was
safe TO count on one OF three answers,
bridge, dancing or movies. Now when
little Bright Eyes comes back at him
with the startling announcement that
she has been canning the strange
sound OF the word penetrates even a
brain all imersed IN war and baseball
news and he gets all muddled up as to
whether the Russians revOhed this
afternoon or the Germans are going to
win the World Series. Then when she
leads him proudly to the rows Of
gooseberries and a sextet OF glasses
Of currant and raspberry iell he's so
pleased and happy that he kisses her
right by the Jelly and ten to one takes
her out TO the theatre as a reward
of merit
So you see Il certainly pays to can.

PRESERVE YOUR SHOES.

err Care and Attention.

Il Will Repay You TO Give Then Prop
err Care and Attention.
We all wear shoes If we manage
them rightly they will last longer, we
will not need so many new ones and
there win be more left for others. The
following suggestions from the leath-
er and paper laboratory OF the United
States department OF agriculture can
be utilized by every one who walks:
Shoes should be oiled or creased
whenever the leather begins to get
hard or dry They should be brushed
thoroughly and then all the dirt and
mud that remains washed Off with
warm water, the excess water being
taken off with dry cloth While the
shoes are still wet and warm apply
the oil or grease with a swab Of wool
or flannel 1t is best to have the oil or
grease about as warm US lire hand can
bear, and ii should be 4ubbed wen
into tlie leather preferably with the
palm. If necessary the OIL can be APP
piled to dry leather, but 1t peDetrates
better when the latter is wet. After
treatment the shoes should be left to
dry ia a place that is warm, not hot.
Castor oil is satisfactory for shoes
that are to be polished for palmer
footgear neatsfoot dsh Oil or oleine
may be substituted. fit IS desired to
make the shoes and boots more water

Hair and Cold Matan

To make your hair grow use cold
water as 4 runs from rae byirant.
Apply the water to your har with
your wet hands aud run your fingers
through what hair ycu have or rub
your scalp with your yet cold hands.
This exercise VIII bring the blood to
the scalp, and Only from the blood can
you get new hair or make the hair you
already have more iuxurtant. You can
not get hair from grease. Nothing La
the world is SO good for the hair as
cold water applied With tho wet hands
until the water has reached the scalp.
But do not immerse your head In cold
water This Is all too much Of Il

edge of the sole and the welt should Be
creased thoroughly. Too much grease
cannot be applied TO these parts.
A simple method OF making the soles
more durable, pliable and water re-
sistant is to swab them occasionally
with nnseed OIL setting them aside to
dry overnight.
Many OF the common shoe polishsx
are harmful TO leather. All those
which contain sulphurte. hydrochloric
or oxalic acids, turtent.ne, hengine or
other volatile solvents ,tave tendency
to harden the leather ana make it more
liable 10 crack
1t is poor economy, too. to wear
shoe with the heel ba1ly worr on cne
side. This throws the shoe out OF
shape and may soon result In its ruin.
1t Is also likely to cause temporary
injury to the foot.

Commander Sims. He quickly won
Sims support.
Poundstone was a good craftsman,
and he and Sims in 1903 and 1904 made
sketches and drew plans for a big gun
ship. The navy heads vetoed the plan
Of the two officers as often as they
brought it up for consideration, but
Sims never abandoned the idea. The
ship became a great joke around the
navy department. 1t Is a striking CO.

Ouch iifii This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here In town If
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that few drops
OF drug called freezone when applied
TO tender, aching corn or hardened cal
lus stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn oc callus dries up and lifts right
Of without pain.
He says freezone dries Immediately
and never infames or even irritates the
surrounding skin. A small bottle of
treezone win cost very little at any
drug store, but win positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
ones feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the Inauguration of the high heels. If
your druggist doesn't have freezone tell
him 70 order q small bottle for you.
