HOUSEKEEPING A BROAD FIELD.
A Good HoUMkHptr Know* Somethin
" of Bovergt Kinds of Effort.
Housekeeping implies the knowl
«dce of several kinds of eEort, A good
'housekeeper must have personal ac-
quaintance with marketing, catering,
cooking, laundry work, scrubbing,
scouring, bedmaking, managing, serv-
ing and home making. She need not
do everything-herself but this being
her time-honored vocation, Bhe must
at least have a sufficient preparation
for it to enable her to set others at
work as well aB to work herself, says
the Woman's Home Companion. Con-
sidering that a multitude of American
women not only keep house welll, but
nurse their families in illness, assist
their children in homework, supervise
the piano practice of their daughters,
take an Interest in the athletic sports
of their sons, and economize in order
that, their husbandB may enlarge their
business or buy more acres, we can-
not look upon housekeeping as an easy
trade.
On the day of the San Francisco
earthquake a lady was awakened in
the early morning by the rocking to
and fro of her home, the falling of
pictures and the crash of breaking
glass. It was not until the later after-
noon that she decided with her hus-
band that they must fly for their lives
and leave the dear home behind them,
probably to be seen no more. In the
Interval, as Bhe later wrote to her
mother in the east, she did not lose
her composure. “I cookfed a good
dinner as best I could,” she said, “not
knowing when we would next get a
regular meal, and I had the sweeping
done as usual.” Here was the poise
of a perfect housekeeper whose head
did not fall her, although there was
no little heartache in the flight from
home, a flight from a whirlwind of de-
vouring flame.

Mrs. Anthony
Cadrette, 77 Mechanic street, Leomin-
ster, Mass., says: “My sight failed,
.1 had sharp pain in my back and
bearing-down pains through the hips.
I was nervous, fretful and miserable.
The urine was greatly disordered and
I began to have the swellings of
dropsy. I was running down fast,
when I started using Doan’s Kidney
Pills. A wonderful change came and
after using them faithfully for a short
time I was well.”

Rest and Sleep.
Few escape those miseries of win-
ter—a bad cold, a distressing cough.
Many remedies are recommended, but
the one quickest and best of all is
Simmons Cough Syrup. Soothing and
healing to the lungs and bronchial
passages, it stops the cough at once
and gives you welcome rest and
peaceful sleep.
Ho Was On# of Thom.
There is a congressman from a
northwestern state who not long ago
expressed his sense of great vexa-
tion when a certain private pension
bill came before the house, for, while
his personal convictions were directly
opposed to its passage, yet his po-
litical interests were strong enough to
whip him into line. On the afternoon
when the bill came up for final dispo-
sition a colleague met the northwest-
ern representative nervously pacing
up and down the cloakroom, mutter-
ing to himself and gesticulating with
much emphasis. „
“Whst’s up?” ssked the fellow mem-
■njsspmnssx,
body,” exclaimed the wrought-up mem-
ber. “That pension bill is up, and
every cowardly nincompoop In the
bouse Is going to vote for It. It’s
sure to pass, man; it’s sure to pass!”
“If you feel that way about It,”
suggested the colleague, “why don’t
you go on the floor and speak against
it?”
“Speak against it!” scornfully re-
peated the excited statesman. “Speak
against it! Why, I'm one of the cow-
ardly nincompoops myself!”—N. Y.

Immigrants for Ecuador.
The government of Ecuador has
signed a contract with an agency in
Guayaquil for the purpose of import-
ing immigrants into the lower and
eastern portion of the republic. The.
company binds itself to import 5,000
families. It is specified in the con-
tract that the immigrants shall be
white and preferably of the German
or Dutch races.

Over Body—A Thoueand Thanks
to Cuticura Remedies.
For Freckles.
Here is a remedy for freckles which
has been satisfactory, but it is im-
possible to predict how soon the cure
will be effected: Thirty grains of pul-
verised borax, dissolved in two and
one-half ounces of lemon juice. This
makes a lotion that is very effective
in keeping freckles in abeyance where
It agrees with the skin. It should be
applied at night, after the face has
been thoroughly washed and rinsed.
Some Great Canals.
The Erie canal is the longest canal
in the United States, having a length
of 387 miles. It was completed in
1826, and cost $52,540,800. The Ohio
canal is 317 miles long, and cost $4,-
685,204. The longest foreign ship
canal is the Suez, between the Medi-
terranean and Red seas, which is 95
miles In length, and cost $100,000,000.
—The Sunday Magazine.
“For over thirty-five years I was a
severe sufferer from eczema. The
eruption was not confined to any one
place. It was all over my body, limbs,
and even on my head. I am sixty
years old and an old soldier, and have
been examined by the Government
Board over fifteen times, and they
said there was no cure for me. I have
taken all kinds of medicine and have
spent large sums of money for doc
tora, without avail. A short time ago
I decided to try the Cuticura Reme-
dies. and after using two ca’ es of
Cutlcttra Soap, two boxes of Cuticura
Ointment, and two bottles of Cuti-
cura Resolvent, two treatments in all,
am now well and completely cured.
A thousand thanks to Cuticura.

Edible Menu Card.
In London the latest thing is a “bill
of eat” that you mdy finish your meal
on. The sheet on which it is printed
is the sugar paper usmUn the bottom
of maccaroons, while the lettering is
cake frosting. The London caterer
who “invented” the edible menu card
has been honored by the patronage of
the king. The king “commanded”
the caterer to teach his chef to make
the edible novelty, and the king’s chef
produced it for a dinner at Windsor
castle. There was much laughter as
the king’s guests discovered that the
menu “cards” were good to eat. They
promptly ate them. It Is said that
the only bad thing about the cards Is
the bad French, and that is quite di-
gestible.
Beware of Cold Feet.
Never go to bed with cold feet.
For nothing in the world Is the hot
water bottle a greater boon. The old
fashioned soapstone or a flatiron, a
small, stone jug—though the latter
never seems quite safe—anything is
better than cold feet.

Piano Hints.
A piano should be tuned at regular
intervals, preferably after the begin-
ning of each season.
It become out of tune as much by
change of temperature as by use.
Too much stress can not be placed
upon the selection of a tuner, as an In-
competent tuner can do great damage
and will usually magnify a slight trou-

“Not all people,” said the jeweler,
“like the ticking of a clock; it is a
pleasant sound to most people, but
not to all.
“Some people, clock lovers these,
couldn’t sleep without a clock in the
same room. Its ticking is company
and it scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up if the clock
should atop in the middle of the
night.
“But there are other people who
can’t sleep with a clock in the same
room and who, if they found them-
selves in a straage place anywhere
with a clock in their sleeping apart-
ment, would stop the clock before
they-went to', bed,.
