THE CHEERFUL CRICKET.
(GreyIlus domesticus.)

(GreyIlus domesticus.)
THE cricket often forsakes the
open to live indoors. His favorite
place is loose brick behind the
l. stove in the kitchen or wide
crack in the snug fireplace.
All day long he enjoys the heat, and
at night he comes out of his hiding
place to seek refreshment
Like the grasshopper and the locust,
he has long hind legs with strong thighs
for jumping great distances, and, like
them, he is unable to guide himself
when once he jumps.
His head and back are fiat. The ears,
pair OF them, are on each hind leg.
The antennae are long and slender and
used for sensing objects.
He Is a clever ventriloquiSt by open
ing and closing the edges of the wing
covers he can send his voice where he
will, and you search for him where he
is not. The wing covers are crossed
one half their breadth with a file which
looks like tiny ridges, but rs a matter
of fact these ridges are $50 perfect little
teeth. 1t is drawing his bow Of an
other $50 teeth across these that makes
the noise to us, but the music to him.
1t is his telephone message to his
sweetheart as well.
From May to June he fiddles in great
glee. In June the mating occurs. His
bride often removes his fiddle; whether
in jealous rage or to keep him at
home I do not know. She goes about
searching for soft earth wherein to lay
her eggs. Making shallow tunnel, she
deposits them in several holes, covering
them with earth before digging an
other. Five hundred straw-colored
cylindrical eggs are laid. In three
weeks tiny flea-like insects, almost
white, have dug their way through the
covering earth and reached the sun
shine. My how they grow! The first
skin is shed, then another becomes too
small, until five coats have been dom
ned. At this time the wing buds APP
pear, and the little white girdle which
has appeared like belt about his mid
die also disappears. He becomes darker
and darker in the sunshine.
The field cricket, poorly fitted to dig,

to find out all he could about the
little people who lived in this dry land
At first it hadn't, seemed possible to
him that there could be any living
creature, but he soon found that he
was greatly mistaken
How they live without water IS
more than 1 can understand" he said
to Cousin Tom.
Cousin Tom, who had been there be-
fore, smiled. 1T is one of the won
ders of Old Mother Nature that she
has adapted these little people of hers
to live without water" said he.
Don't they drink at alp" asked
Farmer Browns Boy
Some of them have seldom if ever
been seen to drink" replied Cousin
Tom. "Of course. there is rain cnce

My Neighbor Says:

Always allow mud spots to dry
and then they can be quickly
brushed or rubbed of without
leaving any stain.
If too much salt has been
added to soup, slice a raw potato
and boil it in the soup for few
minutes. The potato viii absorb
much Of the salt.
Whitewashed walls may be
easily papered IL they are first
washed with strong vinegar. The
acid In the vinegar will attack
the lime, making rough sur
face, to which the paper will
adhere.
Candied cranberries are very
effective when added to fruit
salads.
When washing or ironing put
a thick rug under your feet and
you viii find you do not tire so
easily.

Remedy for Stains on Gowns
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

the changed color has not "set." The
water from some hot-water' faucets is
hot enough to act as a removing agent.
Hold the stain under the faucet and
let the water flow through the spot.
Or stretch the stain over an empty
bowl and pour a steady stream OF boil
ing water through it. The mark dis
appears as if by magic. Seldom does
it entirely resist the treatment.
Coming now to preventive measures,
there is no surer one than well ad-
iusted dress shields. 1t is true that
they hold the heat of the body and do
not lessen the persipiring. What they
do is to absorb the moisture and pre-
vent its touching the frock. Dress
shields come in every size to suit every
requirement, from tiny ones to those
of generous proportions.
There are lotions which stop per-
spiration and these are liked by many
people.

To Freshen Bread.

To freshen stale bread dip it in cold
water and leave in a hot oven until
thoroughly heated through. To freshen
rolls place them in a paper bag in the
oven and leave for a few minutes. To
steam stale bread take a section of a
loaf or single slices, or rolls, place in
a steamer over rapidly boiling water and
cover closely, OF put in colander above
boiling water and leave for a few
minutes

Potato Cakes.

Peel and CRATE enough white pota-
toes to make one cupful. which will take
about four medium-siZed potatoes.
Combine with one egg, one and one
half tesspoonfuls of salt and six table
spoonfuls Of -four Mix thoroughly. Fry
In lard or drippings. using one table
spoonful to each cake; fiatten out and
turn with pancake turner. Drain for
minute on glazed paper. Serve very
hot. These cakes are delicious.

Dress Hangers.

When travelling. or for any other
reason. you find yourself without dress
hangers, you need not worry. A good
substitute can be made by rolling a
newspaper the width of the shoulders of
the dress or blouse, tie both ends to
keep it in place, then tie string around
the center long enough to allow for a
loop to hang it up en- hook.

Business Notes

NEW YORK. October e.-Despita
several adverse factors which have COM
bined to hold down the volume of busi-
ness this week, the general price situa.
ton In the women's apparel trade has
undergone no radical weakness, accord
ing to trade comments in New York.
The comparatively stable situation was
attributed to the absence of substantial
stocks in hands of dress and coat
producers and also to the growing
practice of not sacrificing regular lines
for sales purposes.
Novelty jewelry of aluminium has come
to the fore strongly in recent business
and promises to be one of the most
active items of the season, it was re-
ported in New York. A wide range Of
separate types is now being made of the
lightweight metal, including necklaces,
bracelets and dress clips One line fea-
lures application of chromium plate to
the merchandise.
While the apparel credit situation
continues highly spotty. an indirect i'm
provement in the situation was foreseen
as likely to result from President
Hoover's recent action aimed at banking
Sterilization. Many retailers. particularly
speciality shops, in a number of towns
have been affected by banking diff
culties and also inability to make
business loans.

HELP FOR RAILROADS.

NEW YORK. October 9 (SpeciaD -
While there was no specific recommend
alton in the Hoover plan of aid for the
railroads. it is believed in Wall Street
that some use may be made of the bank
ers' pool to assist those carriers that
have embarrassing maturitios in 1882:
Unless the bond market has decided
improvement, it will be difficult on the
basis of earnings to refund a number
of bond issues coming due within the
next IL months. This situation may be
aggravated If the Interstate Commerce
Commission refuses to increase freight
rates, as a majority now seem to feel
it will. One. of the great troubles of
the banks is the shrinkage in the mar
ket value of their second-grade railroad
bonds. An improvement in these bonds
would be direct gain in restoring bank
credit. Consequently. it is believed that
by one means or another a portion of
the bankers pool will be employed in
correcting the present unfavorable con-
dition in the railroad bond market.

BOARDING OF FUNDS.

NEW YORK, october 9 OFF con-
fdence can be so restored that it will
break the back of the movement toward
boarding of funds in this country a
big stride will have been taken in
turning the tide toward real improve
ment. 1t is this ten6ensy toward TAX
ing currency out of circulation which
is chiefly responsible fer the plight Of
banks in the interior which has made
necessary the steps which are being
taken to alleviate their condition. Dis
cussing the money outlook. authorities
pointed out that much has been made
CT the earmarking of gold here for for
eign account, while the tightening eff
fects of boarding have been ignored.
1t is calculated that something over
$700, 200. 900 has become tied up unpro-
ductively for the holder and to the
oetriment not only of the holder but
the country at large.

Checking Liquidation.

NEW YORK, october Especially -
1t is generally remarked in financial
circles that the primary value of the
Hoover plan is to re-establish conf
dence on the part of holders of secur-
tiles and depositors in banks and tc
check liquidation. What Wall Street
most wants to see is the end of the
decline in the markets. 1t is not sc
much interested at present in sus-
tanned rise in stocks until after the
bond market haa been stabilized.
