FOOD PROBLEMS
BY SALLIE MONROE.
Spend Money on It.

If you want a woman to take an
interest in housework the best thing to
do is to give her an attractive little
house to keep house in. If you want
her to wash dishes without grumbling
about it see that she has dishes that
she likes, that her dishwashing facili-
ties are of the best.
You can try this out on yourself
If you like. If there is some one
branch of your work in which you
never can feel any interest, some part
of your work at which you can never
work with winning heart, spend q
little money on 1t. If you dislike
cleaning save and get a vacuum cleaner
If you do not possess one; or get q
new carpet sweeper, a new floor mop
spend eXtravagantly on equipment. You
will be interested in these new tools as
child is interested in a new toy
And before long you will find yourself
impatient to be about this branch OF
your houseWork.
If you cannot make good coffee-or
do not--the best thing to do Is to get
some elaborate sort of coffee pot, an
electric percolator or something of that
sort. To be sure, you could propably
learn to make good coffee in the old
coffee pot, but your heart will not be
in the work because there is nc
treasure there.

BIZ DONALD A. CRAIG.

July /, 186I.--William Brent of South
Carolina and Hentry T.. Scott of Mary
land have been arrested here by order
of Gen. Mansfield and both charged
with being Confederate spies. They are
| in jail today, awaiting examination.
The Ice Boat, which has long lain
at the Washington Navy Yard wharves,
went down the Potomac River today.
She will relieve the sloop-of-war Poca-
hontas, which has been ordered to go
farther down the river and take the
place Of the Freeborn OF the mouth Of
Aqua Creek, Va.
Before being assigned to this active
war duty the armament of the Ice
Boat was made much heavier. She now
has two 32-pounderS aft and q 9-inch
shell gun and q 6-inch rifle cannon for.
ward-the latter having a range OF 4
miles.
Several other vessels are rapidly be-
ing put in condition at the navy yard
here for active duty in the Potomac or
other rivers Of the South, or for sea
Confederacy. Among those that will
soon be ready for sea here is the Pensa-
cola. Riggers today were busily en-
gagged in putting the finishing touches
to her yards and sails. The Pawnee Is
taking aboard today q large amount of
provisions and expects to leave tomor-
row.. The slight damage she received
in the recent affair with the Confed-
crates at Aqua Greek has not been re-
paired, as 1t was not considered Sc
rious enough.
The Mount Vernon has just arrived
here from Old Point Comfort, Va. She
reports everything quiet at Fortress
Monroe, but her officers say great
preparations for war are going on
there" They say also that the Anacos-
tia lies in Hampton Roads with the
Cumberland, Minnesota and several
smaller vessels, and the propeller steam
er Resolute lies at the mouth of the
Potomac River of Point Lookout, Md.
The Mount Vernon brought up to
the Navy Yard from Old Point Comfort
twenty 24-pound boat howitzers for use
on vessels in the Potomac River. The
Federal Government is planning to keep
sufficient vessels, properly armed, in
the river to make this waterway safe
from molestation by the Confederates
and open at all times to navigation
freely all the way from Chesapeake Bay
to the City Of Washington.

FNO REPLIED SHE. WHAT DID
SAY?"

Hawk should come along? Or Reddy
Fox should be lying low up there?"
Mrs, Muskrat didn't stop to make
reply. She hurried after the wander
ing youngster and sent him back in
hurry. In fact, she sent him rolling
down the bank so that he splashed
into the water. He was whimpering
but she paid no attention to him. You
see, another one was boldly swimming
out into the middle of the Smiling
Pool. Mrs. Muskrat hurried after this
one and SEM him back in a hurry.
You might at least help to try to
keep these children out of danger" she
said Grossly to Jerry.
Jerry said nothing, but started after
another of the youngsters, who was too
boldly exploring the shore. BY the
time he had sent this one back an
other demanded his attention Plenty
was right" muttereed Jerry under his
breath. Plenty certainly was right!
don't know how we're ever going to
keep all these little scamps out of
danger. The first thing they need to
learn is the danger signal. I must
take 1t up With Mrs. Muskrat. I GER
tainly must take it up right away.
So Jerry swan over to where Mrs.
Muskrat was. Just as soon as he got
q chance he said: MY dear, it seems
to me very important that these
Scamps of ours should learn the danger
signal right away and what to do when
they hear it. We can't go running
after them every time they stray away,
because while we are chasing one,
another goes. But we can teach them
the hit-and-dive signal"
presume you mean tail-slapping, ="
said Mrs. Muskrat. II was thinking
about that myself. You know, we
sometimes know things for so long
that We forget that other people don't
know them. Now, can't remember
when I didn't know enough to dive
the instant 1 heard tail slap the
water. Of course, these little folks
of ours are not such good divers as yet,
but they are learning. They are learn
know, they'll be grown up and leave
us. I'll round them up now and We'll
teach them what tail-slapping means"
After some trouble Mrs. Muskrat got
the nine children around her. Now
said she, "it is time you children
learned one of the most important
lessons in all the Great World
What is that?" squeaked one of the
little Muskrats.
Obedience to the danger signal"
replied Mother Muskrat. I'VE, Musk
rats have one signal that we all know
and all heed. 1t is used when one of
us discovers possible danger. 1t is a
slap of a tail on the water. Now, your
father is going to swim across the
Smiling Pool. When he gets over there,
he will pretend that he has discovered
danger. You will hear his signal. When
sou hear it, you do just what 1 do
So Jerry swan across the Smiling
Pool. When he got across he sudden

If you are one of those happy people
whose privilege it has been to dig
around in the garden and plant flowers
to say nothing of watching them
grow and finally blossom, you will ap-
preciate these little accessories.
It's shame-after going through all
this interesting (although sometimes
hard) work not to give the posses
the very best treatment possible, and
then they will stay brighter much
longer for you. They really are ap-
preciative!
