Cheap Substitute for linoieum.

An Inexpensive and sanitary sub
stitute for linoleum can easily be
made by pasting together three sheets
of brown paper used for wrapping up
goods. After thoroughly cleaning the
floor sheet of the paper should be
pasted down and allowed to dry. Then
second sheet is laid down and al
lowed to dry before laying a third
sheet. If pattern floor covering is
desired, ordinary wallpaper serves the
purpose admirably. II is pasted to
the top sheet of brown paper already
laid. The whole, being thoroughly dry.
a coat of sizing is applied and left to
set, after which n coat of good war;
nish completes the process. This floor
covering has all the advantages of real
linoleum and may be washed and pol
ished in the usual way.

FOR HEALTH IN HOUSEHOLD
Observances That Seem Simple in
Themselves, but Really Are of
the Highest Importance.

Is there "A thermometer in your liv-
ing and sleeping rooms?
Are the living rooms kept at a
temperature not exceeding 70 de
gress?
Have you any method of ventiat-
ing the top OF the rooms where foul
air is apt to collect? .HN.
Are your windows arranged so
that they can be lowered from the
top? --..-
Are your sleeping rooms kept cooler
than your living rooms?
Do you open your chamber window
and turn back your bed covers as soon
as you are dressed?
Do you open your closet door at the
same time?
Are all living rooms and sleeping
rooms aired each day? .at as..
Does the member of the family who
is the last to retire thoroughly air the
living room where the family has been
sitting during the evening, In order
that the foul air may not have q chance
to circulate through the house during
the night? I ,.t 11.
Time and money spent In attaining
these ends will be well invested, and
the householder will be rightly repaid
by increasing vigor, comfort and hap
piness of every member Of the family

EAGLES AND RAVENS.

"Some White Tailed Eagles were
boasting one day Of their bravery"
commenced Daddy. "They were also
saying how fine they were in every
way and that their very name meant
strong.
"Now, you know the White Tailed
Eagles are only cousins Of the other
Eagles you Children see so many pic
lures of. There are good many fam
lies Of Eagles just as there are many
different Families Of Wolves and of
Foxes.
"As a matter of fact, though the
White Tailed Eagles won't admit it,
they are less brave than any of the
Eagles.
'They will pretend that they are per-
fectly able to look after themselves at
all times and that they love battles and
eXcitement-andt that they always, al
ways win.
"And this day that they We're boast
ing even more than usual Brother
Black Raven happened to be flying
near by. The Eagles did not even see
him, for they We're so Interested in
talking about themselves.
"NOw, Brother Black Raven is one of
the Raven Generals. He is very brave
and all the other Ravens look up to
him and do just as he says. When he
makes n very curious sound that we
would never understand, the Ravens
know that it means:
"'Forward! Fly! FollOwp
"And along fly all the Ravens after
Brother Black Raven. Where the 9TH
er Birds and Animals live they do not
know that his name is Brother Black
Raven, for there they always call him
General Black Raven.
1.-The Ravens are not kindly at all
and they love to fight They had often
thought it would be great sport to
have those silly White Tailed Eagles,
as they called them, admit that they
were not brave and have their leader
beg for mercy from Brother Black
Raven.
'"And, as you can imagine, when
Brother Black Raven heard the Eagles
boasting he knew it was high time to
begin and frighten them.

gether. Some of them were having
their maps, but as soon as Brother
Black Raven called them, up they got
in a great hurry, spread their wings

to eight inches deep. The gutter
should slope to one edge and also to
one end as in Fig. 1, which shows
a cross-section.
The front gate should be adjusta-
BILE, SO as to close to the rear edge Of
the platform. The manger may be
made of wood or cement, but in all
cases should be partitioned off SO as
to keep each cows food separate.
Some stockmen object to cement floors
on the ground that they give the
COWS rheumatism and produce sore
feet. If proper bedding is given,
there should be no trouble. Many
think such floor construction extrav-
agant and impractical for the average
dairyman, but it is not. While the
original cost may be little more, it
will be cheaper in the end and far
more serviceable. Such floor will
outwear many made of wood and will
be far more sanitary in every way.
They are easier to clean and do not
give off odors like a board floor,
which soaks up filth and causes an
ever-present odor in the stable.
The stalls should be separate so
that each animal will be by herself,
and she will soon learn to take her
own place when entering the stable.
This is not saying that good stables
cannot be built of wood, but 1t is to
remind the man who contemplates
building or wishes to remodel his barn
that 1t pays to build well.

MANY WAYS Of GARNISHING
Hostess viii Find It Easy to selec.
Method Of Improving Appearance
of Dishes Served.

For garnishing meats, fritters Of
vegetables are delectable and potato
cakes and croquettes fried golden
brown in deep fat are also used In the
same way.
If you want color on the fish plat
ter to go with the vegetables, bright
red pimentos furnish it. A can of
these will last all winter, as only a
little is needed. When you have
opened the can use what you need and
then remove the remainder to glass
jar and cover with cold olive Oil and
they will not spoil.
Tomato is also bright garnish and
is liked nodded in aspic, but the olives
that you buy ready stuffed with plmo-
las lend themselves to decoration
readily. Slice them across the
stutfing and you have little green rings
with red centers that improve a salad
in jiffy.
Mashed potatoes can be formed into
baskets and baked so they hold their
shape, and rice may be mixed with but
ter and chilled to form a holder for va
riouS foods, but these fancies are Ill
