The firit ru!u to observe u not to
overhang the sky line. By that is
meant un imaginary line which
should mark the top of the picture '
frame.
This sky line must take a height
commensurate with the size of the
room. What that is must be left for
the individual to decide. Once de-
termined upon by the placing of one
picture, no other frame must rise
above it.
Another rule which some authori-
ties abide by inviolably is that topa
of all frames grouped close together
must be on a level, without regard to
the sixes.
Indiscriminate lianging of pic-
tures—that is to say, hanging them
in irregular ^roupe—-is condemned

of the amendment lies in the fact

as bad taste. If amall pictures are to
lie hung in a room where there are
larger frames, the former should be
grouped into panels corresponding
in outline with the size of the latter.
For instance, two frames 6 by 10
inches in size should fill the same
amount of contiguous space as one
frame 18 by 10 inches. The smaller
frames should be hun? one over the
other. This is in much better form
than hanging the large frame be-
tween the two smaller pictures.
CiMMamg Shetland Shawl*.
The floss shawls that are now so
largely worn in winter as well as
summer need to have their freshness
restored occasionally, though that
operation is put off aa long as pos-
sible. If not too badly soiled, dry
cleaning with flour or starch ia fre-
quently effective, but for real soil
a thorough washing is required.
Make a good suds in a large pan,
using white soap and a little am-
monia. Put the shawl in this and
sop and squeeze, but do not pull,
tod or lift the mass of wool from the
pan. When the water looks soiled,
pour off. Then add fresh rinsing
water of the same temperature. Re-
peat this twice. After the second
rinsing squeeze out every bit of
moisture possible, still leaving the
shawl in the pan. Now set in the
warming oven of the range, turning
over ana over until the shawl is per-
fectly dry. _____
The Baby's Bath.
Cleanliness is one of the most im-
portant factors in a child's well be-
ing. A baby's bath is en interesting
part of the young mother's many
duties, and all mothers agree in
thinking that they should be bathed
every day. A child that is bathed
every day is less likely to take a
contagious disease than one who is
bathed leas frequently.
The best time for the bath is mid-
way between the meals—never when
he is hungry or immediately after a
meal—and may be in the forenoon
or afternoon, to suit the convenience
of the mother.
Removing Mildew.
Mildew may sometimes be re- '
moved from white fabrics by cover- I
ing the spots with lemon juice and
laying in the sun. Lemon juice will |
not serve for colored fabrics, how-
ever, and lard makea a substitute, j
Bab the spots well with lard and lay I
in the sunshine day after day for a
week. Wash in the usual manner.
MUST BELIEVE IT.
When Well-Known Cor
alcana People Tell it
So Plainly.
When public endorsement is made
by a prominent citixen of Corsieana,
the proof is positive, You must be-
lieve it. Read this testimony. Every
backache sufferer, every man, wo-
man or child with any kidney trouble
will find prolit in the reading.
Rev. S. J. Franks, Methodist minis-
ter. residence 1325 W.Tth Ave., says:
"If a dull aching pain in the back
which occnred at irregular intervals,
is any indication of kidney complaint
then I Lad it off and on for an indefi-
nite period. Almost by accident I
happened to read one evening in my
Corsieana paper that Doan's Kidney
Pills were guaranteed to eure any dis-
turbed action <<f the kidneys and I
went to J. E. Dutlei's drag store the
next dav for a box. I knew after a
dose or two that they were acting di-
rectly upon the organs affected. Fi-
nally a complete removal of the an-
noyance positively proved to me that
Doan's Kidney Pills fulfilled every
promise they made. It is worth a
good deal to residents of Corsieana
to know this fact, the remedy can be
depended upon to do exactly as ad-
vertised."

To replenish a coal fire in a sick-
room or in any place where it is de-
sired to avoid tne noisy rattling of
the coal place in a newspaper or pa-
per bag and lay the budget carefully
on the fire. The magsslne of a coal
stove can be filled m this manner
with little or no noise.
T« Kwp an Umbrella.
An umbrella should not be opened
ont to dry, as the stretchers are apt
to warp in the bent form, giving an
unsightly appearance when the um-
brella is closed." The silk should be
left to drain with the handle down-
ward and gently wiped with an old
silk handkerchief.
Cur* For Frostbit*.
Bathe the parts affected in alum
water, pretty strong, for five to ten
minutes. This treatment may be
used and depended on for relief as
long as the part affected is not
"open." After bathing is alum wa-
ter, apply linseed oil.
A Pillow Wrlnklo.
Every one knows how apt pillow
ticks are to grow yellow or discoloT-
ed lust where the head rests. A
good way to avoid this is to keep
old pillowcases for tick covers un-
der the outside pillow slips.
For Burn*.
Keep a bottle of linseed oil and
lime water, together with a roll of
absorbent cotton and pieces and
strips of old linen for bandages, in a
convenient place to use in case of
bum?.

When you have a cough do
not try to suprees it.but remo ve
the cause. The cough is only a
sympton of some disease, and
the disease is what yon ahonld
cure (then the cough will stop of
itself. Tbe most common cense
of cougbing is a cold. Anodynee
will promptly suppress the
cough and preparations contain-
iog chloroform, opulm, etc., are
used for that purpoese,bct they
do not enre the cold. Chamber-

other band does not suppress
the cough,but relieves it by
removing from the throatlungs
the mucus which obstructed the

cures the cold aa well as the
