THE FAMILY
By SEN0RA SARA
Do you know how to boil potatoes
Should they be put over the fire In hot
or cold water and does it make any
difference which you use It certainly
does if you want nice white potatoes
for mashing or to serve just plain boiled
with their jackets on First always
soak old potatoes before you cook them
at all Put them in cold water to soak
for an hour before you peel them or
cook with jackets an or bake Wash
them very clean use a small brush
Then have water boiling hot into which
plunge them all over have an Inch of
water above them while they boil Po
tatoes cooked in water that has to boll
after the potatoes are put In will be
soggy As soan as potatoes are tender
pour off the water If to be served with
jackets on two minutes in a hot oven
in a piepan makes them nice and mealy
If to rice or just plain mash sprinkle
salt over them after the water is poured
off shake them around and then mash
They should be right mealy and fine if
the potatoes wore good to start with
It does not pay to cook a poor Irish
potato
Heres a thought for you to turn over
in your minds To help yourself help
others Does that sound paradoxical
Well Just work at it awhile and see if
it is not all right
This from Margaret Sangster one of
the worlds sweetest women is well
worth considering
The seamy side of home making
strangely enough is most often seen
where a wife is too domestic A wo
man who lives only for her house and
for her family seldom keeps pace with
her husband and children intellectually
and sympathetically She is so anxious
to have her table as it should be her
dining room in spotless order and her
periodical cleaning and nollshlng done
that she has no time for anything else
Outside interests of some sort are nec
essary if ones mental powers are to
grow These interests should iot be
when it can be helped In the line of
wage earning Longing to help their
husbands women sometimes attempt
tasks beyond their strength The ordi
nary care of a home and the manage
ment of children are enough to tax the
energies of a wife and mother and she
should not undertake beyond these du
ties any other work unless there is re il
need Our children receive the Impres
sion of our breadth or narrowness and
they are the better for having in the
home some one who is not always hur
ried and worried but who has leisure
to listen to them when they have little
trials and plenty of time to share their
joys
A nice woman cannot bring herself
to sprinkle clothes as a Chinaman does
even though he gets the water on even
ly that is by filling Ids mouth with
water and squirting it over the clothes
But I know one who bought hercelf a
long rather whisk
broom This she keeps very clean when
not in use To use she has a pan of
water and dips the broom In that and
then shakes it over her clothes It
sprinkles them nicely
If you want a scraper for pots ket
tles and pans try on oyster or clam
shell Get a nice clean one with smooth
edges It will not break easily does
not rust and you can easily keep it
washed clean
Busy housemother In buying your
new furniture be careful to get as se
verely plain woodwork as possible You
will find it a perfect joy to keep it pol
ished up Carved wood If machine
turned Is an inartistic dirt gatherer
and It Is almost Impossible to keep it
clean If you are wise you will also
avoid brass bedsteads They are
simply the limit for making work It
is very hard to keep them bright and
shining and they are a sight If you
do not keep them bright If you want
a bedstead that is easy to keop clean
get an iron one that is painted You
can clean It with coal oil gasoline or
turpentine by simply rubbing down and
you can paint it over again if it gets
scarred
A pound of pluck is worth a ton of
luck
There is another uss for coal oil that
is quite as valuable as any that has
been mentioned If the children get
vermin in the hair at school just take
a Fmall cloth saturate it with coal oil
and with that youngster between your
knees rub his hair and scalp till the
hair is well saturated You will prob
ably only have to do this once Next
day brush and comb the kldlet well
and his head will be free from vermin
Down in Georgia they are rejoicing
because they have a law which forbids
the putting of children under well
possibly it is 12 years of age in the
cotton mills or at any other work that
will keep them out of school and a
current magazine has pictures of little
girls of live who have thus been kept
out of the mills and who can now go
to school Oh the pity of It A five-year-old
child In school It is positively
criminal Almost as bad as putting the
wean in a factory for eight and 10 hours
a day Surely surely It Isnt necessary
to put a little child like that at work
Why not let it have a chance to cat and
sleep and grow It seems such a pity
that children should be made wise
so early In life these days It used not
to be so and I may be old fashioned
but it seems to me as I look back that
the men and women who got little
schoolln and lots if play who had to
walk two miles to school sweep dust
and make the fires after they got there
to help the teacher who boarded round
and got 10 a month made the strong
est and the brightest men and women
after all No child should be cooped
up In the house eight and 10 hours a
day It should be outdoors racing In
the fresh air studying blrdu and bees
and flowers learning natures great les
sons learning to be kind and gentle
with dumb brutes which helps It to be
kinder to Its own It should fly kites
and play mumbly peg marbles
any old thing that will
work Its legs and stir its blood and keep
its muscles stretched to a tension that
induces growth School is all right In
the proper time At 10 say with some
judgment and a thinker that has been
working overtime the child will learn
more in one year than in four if set
to work systematically on books at the
immature age of five That Is the way
I think about it anyhow
Heres something of William Wads
worths written between 1770 and 1850
some time which I picked up the other
day and I am wondering if he didnt
feel somehow that his childhood had
been Molcn from him It fits in right
here
The world Is too much with us late
and soon
Getting and spending we lay waste
our powers
Little we see In Natuto that Is ours
We have given our hearts away a sor
did boon
This sea that bares her bosom to the
moon
The wind that will be howling at all
hours
And are up gathered now like sleep
ing flowers
For this for everything we are out of
tune
It moves us not Great God Id
rather bo
A pagan suckled in a creed outworn
So might I standing on this pleasant
lea
Have glimpses that would make me
less forlorn
Have sight of Froteus rising from the
f
Or hear old Trltflnpjw his wreathed
J B
Did you know tht kerosene is a good
disinfectant After xqu have washed
up your hardwoodj or painted floors
saturate a rag witj cqal oil and go all
over them again 9n9u caa fasten the
rag on the broomlf yju like Coal oil
is a splendid wash jfor any kind of
furniture that youiwant to get grease
spots off of andiia coal oil rag will
clean window glass beautifully You
should of course polish the panes with
a clean soft clotho Goal oil a table
spoonful to a gallon of hot water is an
excellent whltencrw for clothes boll
them In the water having first soaked
them as usual Bo- careful how you
handle the coal oil over a brisk fire
however In fact it is foolish to bo
careless in the handling of any such
substances It is always better to be
qn the safe side Coal oil is excellent
for chilblains Soak the feet in It It
Is also good to kill chiggers Rub your
self down with it and do not put on
the same clothes again In fact coal
oil is a very efficient cleaner despite its
horrid odor which soon passes off how
over
If ants the miserable little red
ones are troubling you get a dimes
worth of tartar emetic and mix it with
sugar Put this on half a dozen saucers
and put them in the places most favored
by the ants and they will disappear

OLD EXKllEiMBET
The Survivor or the FhllaiIelphIn nrl
ende and Picketts Division Fraternize
at GetfysliUTC
After 43 years survivors of Gen Geo
E Picketts Division and the Philadel
phia Brigade met at Gettysburg Sept
15 on the spot where the world famous
charge was made on the third day of
the decisive battle of the civil war The
brigade was composed of four regi
ments of the Pennsylvania volunteers
who assisted In fighting oft tho charge
and one feature of the day was the
return by veteran Union men to their
former enemies of the sword of Brlg
Gen Lewis Addison Armistead which
fell from his hands when ho was killed
Just as he reached the cannon of
Ing
Although the survivors of the fam
ous charge on both sides are aged and
bent they went over the ground of the
battle with the enthusiasm of youth
and the return of the sword started
many a train of reminiscence of tho
man who had waved It
Gen Armistead was the son of Maj
Gen Armistead of the United State3
Army and went to West Point until ho
smashed a plate over the head of Gen
Jubal A Early He was appointed a
Second Lieutenant In the Army in 1839
and served throughout the Mexican
War where at the battle of Chapulte
pec he was brevetted for gallantry In
action He was a Captain when the
war began but Immediately resigned to
become Colonel of a Confederate regi
ment Ho was promoted to Brigadier
General In 1862 and added to Picketts
Division
In the famous charge the four regi
ments commanded by Gen Armistead
occupied the center and when the fate
ful orders were given they went for
ward Armistead leading his hat held
aloft on the point of hl3 sword Al
though 100 guns cut down more than
ttto thlrds of them while the musketry
of the infantry protected Cemetery Hill
with a screen of death Armistead went
up He was the first to leap the stone
wall on tho top of tho hill with Come
on boys and had one hand on tho
muzzle of one of Cushings cannon when
he received his death wound It was at
the same moment that Cushlng himself
was killed The sword after the war
went to Phlaldelphla whero it remain
ed all these years until In the era of
good feeling It was resolved to return it

Division of Pension llciuarrlnse Moral
Character
The mere fact that the claimant mar
ried her second and third husbands
during the lifetime of her first husband
under tho belief that she was legally
competent to contract the second and
thiri marriages does not justify tno
rejection of her claim for one half her
husband s nenslon upon tne grouna
that she was not a woman of good
moral character 128 7-10-06
