 A sure way of keeping your teapot from being musty is the following: After drying, place in the bottom a piece of sugar and put on the lid. This absorbs all excess moisture, and the teapot can be left for several months without fear of it becoming musty.
 If carpets are swept once a week with a broom that has been dipped into solution of hot water and tur- pentine (just a little of the latter) they will not only keep their color but will also be moth proof When your oven gets too hot, don't open the door, instead, place inside a basin of cold water. This cools the oven and the steam rising from it prevents the contents of the oven from burning.
 Water in which rice has been boil ed is splendid for mixing cakes, and, what is more, helps keep them moist. 1 To test good flour, squeeze a por- | ton of it in your hand.

Guarantees Restored
To Residents of Cuba

The Department of State has just
been notified that the President of
Cuba has signed the law passed by
the Cuban congress re-establishing
the constitutional guarantees.
The Cuban government had sus-
pended the constitutional guaran-
tees and had appointed supervisors
in each province. The effect of such
suspension of guarantees was that
the government could put a citizen
in Jail for ten days without re-
course and without the necessity of
the charge on which he
was arrested.
The government also had the
power to send to a distance of $50
kilometers any citizen whom 1t
might decide to be a menace to the
locality in which we was living.
The reason advanced for the pass
ing of such a law was the danger
to the harvesting of the sugar crop
threatened by the strike Of railroad
employees. II the sugar crop had
been allowed to stand without being
gathered, tremendous sums would
have been lost to Cuba.
