A Disappointed Man.
Mr. Halloran surveyed the insur
jmce agent with a dark and hostile
countenance. The fact that one ey«
was concealed by a Somewhat grimj
bandage did not add to the attrao
tlveness of his expression.
“Haven’t you made up your mind
yet to insure with us?” inquired the
agent “You told me I might cal!
again in a few days.”
’ “There was two of you at me tc
get an accident insurance policy,”
said Mr. Halloran, breathing heavily.
*1 told you and him both you mighl
call in again, and be come flrrst, day
befoor yistherday, atfd I insured wid
his company.
“That very night I met up wid
Barney Oasey on the way home,
which waa what I was expecting wud
happen," continned Mr. Halloran.
raising himself by grasping the armi
of his chair with two capable al
though scarred hands, “and whin
we’d finished wid one another, I wag
like this!
“Yistherday morning 1 sent for the
Insurance chap and says I to him.
'Look at me,’ I says, ‘and istimate
the damages and pay them.’
“He squirmed right out o’ the door,
saying 'twae no accident I’d had.
“Now if meeting wid Barney Casey

I
To Restore the Color In Carpet.
Rub well with a cloth wrung out
in water to which a handful of salt
has been added. This must be done
after all the dust has been swept or
beaten out. The room must not be
used until the carpet is quite dry.-*
Woman's Life.
Taking Dust from Silk.
Use a piece of velveteen for brush
ing silk. Try it on a black silk petti
coat and see how perfectly it wipes
away all traces of dust from frills
and ruffles.
Any brush, however soft, acts as
an irritant to silk, but the velveteen
removes all dust without any injury
to the silk of sunshades, etc.—Indi
anapolis News.
Flower Screens.
One of the most effective bits of
landscape gardening I know is a
screen of vines. Set three or five
posts in a zig zag line, tack hog or
poultry netting to them, and you have
a fine support for the vines which
will prove a thing of beauty and a
joy for all summer, besides hiding
an old well, or some unsightly cor
ner.—Alta in Indiana Farmer.
Wall Paper Hints.
Owners of new homes make many
mistakes in the selection of wall pa
per, and while it is largely a matter
of personal opinion, there are certain
rules which must not be overlooked.
Especially is this so of the new home
where bare walls must be covered
with their first coat of paper. A wall
paper expert gives the following valu
able hints:
Never use large figured papers on
low-ceilinged rooms.
Plain color and self-toned stripes
increase the apparent height of a
room.
Do not use red or dark green paper
in a dark room. These colors are in
clined to absorb the light. Yellow,
white or creamy tints are much more
cheerful.
Light blue and pink paper look well
in rooms that are flooded with sun
light, but they soon fade. This makes
papering very expensive if we would
have our walls look fresh at all times. |
When the paper cannot be renewed of
ten, use more substantial colors Ie
sunny rooms.
Where pictures are to be hung, se
lect a plain background and never put
a garish paper in a room that must
be occupied by an invalid.
Many home makers fall into the er
ror of purchasing expensive styles of
paper far beyond their means. Fine
grades of delicately tinted papers will
keep one poor, because they must be
renewed at regular intervals. One can
often save money on wall paper by
purchasing rolls of year-old patterns
at a great reduction. If these are of
conventional designs they always look
well. Wall paper patterns change ev
ery year, and it frequently happens
that old patterns are brought back in
to favor after the lapse of a season
or two.
Deep borders and ornate friezes
should be avoided in small rooms.
The average home does not offer con
ditions which will do them justice.
A common error is to purchase
wall paper of a gaudy and novel type
which will often spoil the appearance
of the furniture.
There is a tendency at the present
time to have some of the finest homes
papered in one color for an entire
floor.
‘ This plan in many respects Is a
good Idea.—Lyne S. Metcalfe in the
Boston Post, ^
Recipes.
Pineapple Sandwich—Cut youi
bread thin. Spread with finely grat
ed cream cheese, on top of which
place chopped pineapple from which
the juice has been drained.
Corn Fritters—To 1 pint scraped
sweet corn, add 1-2 cup milk, 1 ta
blespoonful butter (melted), beaten
egg, 1 teaspoonful salt, 1-3 teaspoon
pepper, 1 teaspoon of baking powder
sifted with 1-2 cup of flour; beat well,
and fry in small spoonfuls as for
griddles.
Cheese Odds and Ends—Odds and
ends of cheese usually thrown away
may be saved, and when of a suffi
cient quantity run through the grind
er. Season well with paprika, salt and
a pinch of curry. Mix with thick
cream and set aside to blend. It may
be used then as a soft cheese.
Apple Sauce Cake—One cupful of
sweetened apple sauce, one-half cup
of butter, one cup of chopped raisins,
one teaspoonful of soda, one cup of
brown sugar and half a teaspoonful
of salt. Allspice and cinnamon, tea
sf>oonful of each, two cups of flour
sifted with two teaspoonfuls of bak
ing powder. The raisins may be
omitted if desired. Stir well and bake
In a deep pan.
Macaroni Soup—Three pounds of a
joint of veal, well broken up; put in
fours quarts of water and set it to
boil; prepare one-quarter of a pound
of macaroni by boiling it by itself,
with sufficient water to cover it; add i
a little butter to the macaroni when j
it is tender; strain the soup and sea-1
son to taste with salt and pepper,j
then add the macaroni in the water i
in which it is boiled. The addition of
one pint of rich milk or cream and
celery flavor is relished by many;
Summer is here, and with it, what
every woman hates: Freckles, Sun
Burn, and other blemishes. Of course,
you wish to drive off such enemies
to good looks. Then use La Valliere
Peroxide Vanishing Cream. A harm
less, non-greasy, effective face bleach.

Baby Wasted to a Skeleton.
“My little son, when about a year
and a half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. I had a physi
cian treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then I
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and a half of suffering he grew
so bad that I had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.
“My aunt advised me to try Cuti
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. 1
sent to a drug store and got a cake of
Cuticura Soap and a box of the Oint
ment and followed directions. At the
end >of two months the sores were all
well. He has never had any sores of
any kind since. I can sincerely say
that only for Cuticura my child would
have died. I used only one cake of
Cuticura Soap and about three boxes
of Ointment.
“I am a nurse and my profession
brings me into many different fam
ilies and it is always a pleasure for
me to tell my story and recommend

Man Sells His Throat and Lungs.
A gruesome sort of bargain was
transacted in Detroit recently when
Bert (Morphy, a noted vocalist, agreed
to sell his throat and lungs to the
Medical college of Chicago, for ex
perimental purposes after death. The
reason the organs are wanted is be
cause Morphy once was in the last
stages of consumption and was cured
b>y outdoor singing. The price offered
was good, and Morphy after consulta
tion, closed the bargain on the assur
ance that his body, mftms the larynx
and the lungs, could be returned tf
his family unmutilated.
National Bank Reserves.
The law requires every national
tank located In the three central cit
ies, New York, Chfoago and 9L Louis,
to maintain a reserve In bank of 25
per cent.; the same rate is required
for other reserve city banka, but one
half of the amount may be depositd
to their credit with correspondents in
central reserve cttlee. Country banks
are required to maintain a 15 per
cent, reserve, two-fifths of which must
be in bank and three-filths may bs
with correspondents.

Love Versus Passion.
Love and passion are too often mis
taken, for they are in reality distinct.
Love elevates, passion degrades; love
enlarges the heart, passion narrows
It. Pure love is entirely free from
the taint of passion and is as rare as
pure charity.—Home Notes.
RESTORED TO HEALTH.
Another Remarkable Cure of Serious
Kidney Trouble.
H. W. Solomon, 228 Market St.,
Harrisburg, Pa., says: “Kidney dis
ease afflicted me for years and dizzi
ness was so se
vere that I stag
gered as if drunk.
My back was so
lame that often
I couldn’t stir.
Three or four
* doctors had ex
amined my urine
and all had found
albumen. My
family doctor said I had Bright’s dis
ease and could not live three weeks.
1 had run down from 195 to 135
pounds. I began using Doan’s Kid
ney Pills as a last resort and was
cured. I have had no kidney trouble
in over two years.”

The Suspect's Declaration.
Parson White’s precautionary
measure of pirotecting his chicken
coop with ehtlled steel bars was'
futile, for that very night four more
of his choice leghorns disappeared,
leaving the severed and twisted bars
as the only visible evidence of the
theft. However, his suspicions
pointed toward hie next door neigh
bor, whom he had seen prowling
around his yard that day, and, accord
ingly, he had this suspect up in po
lice court the next morning.
“If the prisoner can file an alibi
I’ll let him off with a suspended sen
tence," announced the Judge at the
end of the evidence. “Can yon file
an alibi, Ham?"
“Ah guess Ah kin,” eagerly en
joined the suspect, “if it ain’t any
habder den Panson White’s chicken
coop bars!"--St. Paul Dispatch.

Gives no outside heat, no smell, no smoke. It will cook the biggest dinner
without heating the kitchen or the cook. It is immediately lighted and immedi

handle. There’s no drudgery connected with it, no coal to carry, no wood to chop.
You don’t have to wait fifteen or twenty minutes till its fire gets going. Apply a
light and it’s ready. By simply turning the wick up or down you get a slow or an
intense heat on the bottom of the pot, pan, kettle or oven, and nowhere else. It
has a Cabinet Top with shelf for keeping plates and food hot, drop shelves for
coffee, teapot or saucepan, and even a rack for towels. It saves time, worry,
