1 Helps for the Heueewife

Leaving the dishes to dry in wire drainers Instead of wiping them, lessens the time and labor of dish washing one-half for me. Three drainers are often need. All the smaller tin dishes tn one may be placed on the back of the range to dry thoroughly after surplus water has drained into the sink. The glasses are washed first with Ivory soap, in water as hot as hands can bear, dipped in cold water and placed on a cloth to drain. The silver is washed and wiped quickly, morn hot water added in dishpan and the rest of the dishes washed and placed loosely in drainers, cups and bowls bottom side up, and plates, etc., edgewise. Hot water is then poured over them and they are left to dry; or it is a nice plan to dip each dish in hot water before placing tn drainer. It is excellent plan to have meals always ready five minutes before they are to bo served, the hot food kept warm over the kitchen stove, of course. This gives time to wash kettles and cooking dishes and helps greatly. A broadbladed putty knife is an extremely use ful utensils In my kitchen, for scouring the bottoms of kettles, taking up cookies, but biscuits, etc., from the tin, turning griddle cakes and many other things. A bread mixer should be in every kitchen. Well cared for one will last a very long time and helps Immensely. Directions which come with It should be followed closely. Placing all liquids, salt, sugar and shortening in the mixer before adding the flour, and using one quart of liquid, including that in which yeast is dissolved, to three quarts of bread flour, invariably forms a dough of proper consistency and makes three large loaves and one-half loaf or plate of rolls. White bread kept on hand al ways is a great help and should be supplemented dally with biscuits or muffins of graham or whole wheat flour, also corn cake.

The Economy of Good Looks

All women are not born beautiful but nearly all can acquire good looks by attention to their person and the selection of their apparel. To be good looking one need not be extravagant A becoming hat good shoes and good gloves constitute the essentials to make an ordinary girl attractive. A moderately good suit kept well brush ed and pressed, can, if a little too much worn, be redeemed by these accessories. Neatness, above all else, is the keynote to good dressing. The best shoes will look shabby if they are not polished and the heels kept level Likewise the gloves should be kept neatly mended, and it is well to re member that clean colored gloves are tp be preferred to soiled white ones. Keep the hair neat, wash it often and brush it daily. Brushing lends lustre to the dullest locks and makes the hair easier to manage. Don’t neglect the care of the teeth and hands, exercise moderately, sleep eight hours, and more if possible, keep the system regular and bathe daily. Too much emphasis must not be laid on the matter of dress alone The men tai attitude adds largely to one’s good looks. Cultivate a liking for good reading, instead of Indulging the weakness to read trashy novels; unremittingly endeavor to go good, to be kind and to maintain a clear conscience. It will all be reflected in the sparkle of the eye and the spirit of content and satis faction that envelopes one. Let the plainest girl follow these little hints and she can be good looking. And what woman doesn’t covet good looks? —Kathleen Hills, in Leslie’s.

Papering Hints

To remove grease from papered walls dip a piece of flannel in spirits of wine and rub the grease spot once or twice gently. To clean wall paper tie a soft cloth over broom and sweep down the walls carefully. Kitchen walls painted are even better than kalsomine, whitewash or paper; paint does not absorb odors or peel off, and it can be easily cleaned. Wash the wall rapidly with soapsuds, then with a coat of glue and then paint.

Fancy Needlework

When making up nice dress goods or any fancy material do not throw away even the smallest scraps, but have a box or bag near your work basket to save them in; you will find them convenient for many small art! des. The same is true of wash goods, such as gingham, percale and so on; very tiny pieces may be utilised in making quilts by selecting suitable patterns.

About Feather Beds

Fer a short cut In emptying feather beds sew the opening in feather bed or sack containing feathers to the opening in the new bed tick or pillow to be filled and shake the feathers from the old tick into the new. Use good strong thread in sewing the openings together and you don’t have to scatter a feather if you are careful.

Scratched Paint

If you are distressed to find that some careless person has scratched the new white point' with a match, try rubbing the darkened surface with port of a cut lemon. Unless the wood ban been burned the discoloration is removed.

To Clean Gilt Frames

Beat the white of an egg so it will mix with water, then add one quart of warm soft water. Wash frames with this, then dry with a soft cloth Mid have them look like new. top. Keep one or two bouquets In the room at a time. Change every two or three hours if you have a great many. . _ ; Don’t fill the room with fresh flow*

Two of a Kind.

In a certain Cincinnati theater the house physician receive'* a seat for each performance, since he fa supposed to be on hand each evening. Naturally, the plays sometimes pail on the doctor, and he longs for a change—hence this story. One evening a stare hand hastily ran to the front and down the aisle to the doctor’s seat. He whispered in the ear of the occupant. "Hurry back nt once. Doc. The leading lady has had an attack." The man in the seat followed the stage man somewhat reluctantly. "In the dressingroom of the leading lady, Doctor!’’ wai’ed one of the actresses, wringing her hands. "Have you poured water on her head?” solemnly asked the doctor. "Yes: a whole bucketful—but in our excitement we got hold of the one marked 'Not to be used except In case of Are.’" “I fear you have made a fatal error," said the doctor. Then he scribbled something on a bit of paper. “Take this to the drugstore and get it filled.” When the leading lady found herself alone with the doctor, she opened her eyes. "Doctor,” she gasped, "you’re « good fellow, aren’t you? I know you are aware that there’s nothing the matter with me. I want a day off, and I don’t want to go on in this act. Can you fix It?” "You bet I can ” said the doctor, wringing her hand, sympathetically. "I ain’t no doctor. I came in on his ticket.”

Wanted a Receipt.

Blackstone is a lawyer of the old school and has a well-deserved reputation for good heartedness that keeps him poor. He was recently imposed upon by the town’s most successful miser, one Scroggins, who placed troublesome legal work in his hands. As the time came for settlement Scroggins hemmed and hawed and manifested all the symptoms of being in acute pain over having to pay a Just debt. The lawyer’s sunny good nature again asserted Itself. "I won’t charge you anything for my services," he said. Scroggins peered sharply through his bushy eyebrows. “Well, I’d like to have a receipt, anyhow," he snarled.

Obituary.

Curtis Bautigan was born in New Albany, Ind., Jan. 25, 1892. Died in Youngstown, Ohio, Nov. 3, 1915, at the age of 23 years, 9 months and 9 days. Curtis was the fourth child of August and Olive Bautigan and a good son. About two years ago the family moved to their present home near Newland. Failure of crops and a large family made it necessary for them to find some way to tide over until another harvest. Curtis arose to meet the need and about two months ago went to Ohio to procure work as a machinist. A little over a week ago he was taken suddenly ill, was placed in the hospital suffering from a severe attack of rheumatism. The disease went to his heart, causing death. The remains were shipped to the family home, where the last ministry of loving hands was performed. He leaves to grieve over their loss his father, mother, one sister and six brothers, besides numerous other relatives and friends. The funeral services were held in the home Sunday at 1 p. m. conducted by Rev. J. P. Green. The burial took place in Barkley cemetery.
