Treating Your
 Clothes With
 Consideration

Frocks and suits of today are a trifie too expensive to be considered lightly, and it is surprising how A little care will prolong the life of ones clothes and help them retain that weu-groomed appearance.
 In the first place, keep your clothes clean. Brush or shake them ire quently, see that they receive regular pressings and above all, hang them up carefully. Plenty of rods and hang CTS save space, prevent wrinkles and keep the garments in shape. Remove spots as soon as they appear and don't wait until the rip or tear be- comes a regular full-sized hole mend tears when they first start and you won't need to spend half as much time in the end. If a run starts when you are some place where you cannot sew it up immediately, rub a piece of soap across the end of the run until such time as you can mend it. But bear in mind that the soap will not stop up the run forever.
 Keep covers over garments of deli cate material or others that are worn only occasionally; it protects. them against dust and rubbing.
 Give your clothes plenty of fresh air when you take them off. It isn't a bad idea at all to leave the clothes closet open at night. Partly soiled clothes should never be kept in an unaired place, because they are likely to become discolored.
 Wash out silk stockings, socks and underwear frequently; it prolongs their service and in the case Of stockings it prevents continued strain on the same part and rotting and change of color from precipitation.
 At all times choose well-Shaped, well-fitted garments-they may cost niore at first, but they wear better in the long run and always look we'll:

SOME HEAT-SAEING HELPS.

With the cold days of winter near at hand and the problem of coal as big as ever, every one wants to get the most out of the heater with the smallest expenditure of fuel. Here are a few hints, some of which may be old ideas to you and new to some one else, but all of which are sure to be helpful
 In the first place, keep the heater clean. Soot and ashes reduce effect i've heating. Scrape them from the firepot and the section above it. Then occasionally take down the smoke pipe and brush out the soot Soot in the chimney interferes with the draft and may cause chimney fires. Leaks are often the cause of cross-dr and interfere with the burning of the fire and the circulation of heated air Fill all cracks in the heater with ce- ment and mend or replace leaky pipes
 Take regular care Of the fire. It
 Taker egular care of the fire. It should be attended to from two to four times a day, according to the weather. If the fire is low, put only a small amount of coal on, and when ever adding a large amount of coal leave part of the glowing fire expos- ed. In severe weather fill the irepot with coal the last thing at night. The first thing in the morning open the dampers and add a sprinkling of coal, then, when the fire Is burning well, shake it and add more coal.
 Clean the ash pits daily. Ashes cut off the air supply and also cause the grate to burn and warp. Spray the ashes, if possible, before removing them.
 In mild weather have a bed of ashes on top of the grate. In severe weather shake until a glow appears in the ash pit. A short, quick stroke of the shaker sits ashes through the, grate. Always leave the grate set level.

curSory examination disclosed that it
struck at the bottom. OF course, If the
swelling had been at the top, 1t would
have been so easy just to plane off
the surplus. But, at the bottom! He
tried tightening the screws in the
upper hinge, which were quite loose,
but found the wood so soft that even
longer screws would not hold. There
seemed to be nothing to do but re-
move the upper hinge, dig out the
soft wood and insert in its place
piece of new wood, which held tn"
hinge screws firmly and prevented
the door from sagging.
