Cleanliness In the Kitchen as Impor
tant as in the Sickroom.
Back of the pantry door hang a
long, white apron, white oversleeves
and a white cap; not the pretty,
coquettish cap worn, at cooking
school, bat a cap of large propor
tions, fitted with an elastic tape,
which holds it close round the face,
says the Housekeeper. Under this
cap not a hair can escape, which
precludes any possibility of hairs in
the food when one is cooking. The
apron and sleeves cover the gown
perfectly, so that it is unnecessary
to change one's dress when it i?
time to prepare dinner. If one in
careful, it is possible to cook with
out allowing a drop to fall and, hav
ing on a good gown, teaches one to
be careful. The apron and sleeves,
as well as the cap, are of white lin
en, a cheap quality of table linen.
They wear for years an! are easily
washed, besides looking clean at all
times. At least when they are soiled
one can see it at a glance, and thi>
does away with any chance of cook
ing with a soiled apron. We insist
on our trained nurses wearing white
aprons in order to have everything
1 clean about the sickroom. Thert
will come a time when we will re
i alize that it is as important to be
surgically clean in the kitchen when
people are well in order to keep
them so as it is to be thus clean ir.
the sickroom in order to cure them
: when they are ill.
, PEAT MAY SUPPLANT COAL.
Peat briquettes, all bent except a
i pinch of ashes, can now be made by
improved processes for $1.21 a ton.
The peat supply increases propor
tionately with the distance from the
equator. I .nvold and wet countries
the climate does not well do the (fry
ing, and methods have consequently
i to be resorted to. So prepared,
! there is peat enough distributed
! here and there in the world to con
! duct a substantial civilization on for
| an indefinite succession of centuries.
| Alaska has plenty of it, and so ha*
I Siberia, with ample depo-its in oth
i er far northern countries. Sweden
| already uses 2,000,000 tons of the
I briquettes yearly, and within fifty
' miles of Chicago are deposits of the
j material suflicient to supply the city
with fuel for a period to come per
haps as long as it may have any use
for fires or domestic hearths to light
them on. One-seventh of the area
of Ireland consists of peat bogs
heretofore not to be profitably work
ed, but by the new process made as
; valuable as coal mines.
SOME MISTAKES. ?
To give a wife an exaggerated idea
of your income.
To refuse to receive an apology for
an ordinary affront.
To toss aside a suggestion without
giving it some consideration.
To expect generosity when you ex
hibit only selfishness to others.
To think the world is big enough in
which to bury entirely a bad record.
To speak, of the misfortunes of oth
ers until the cause therefor is known.
To cry down the man who succeeded
to that which brought failure to you.
To speak slightingly of a woman be
cause she turned her eyes the other
way.
To carry the head so high as to pre
vent an occasional glance at the com
monplaces.
To go about fretting as though the
hand of mankind had been raised
igainst you.
A Scotch Story.
The following example of a quaint,
philosophic Scotch character Is related
in the Scottish American: The season
had been an exceptionally bad one for
farming, but In a country church not
far from Arbroath the officials had re
solved. according to custom, to hold the
annual harvest thanksgiving service.
It was noticed that on that particular
occasion Mr. Johnstone, a tveular at
tendant and pillar of the church, whose
crops had miserably failed, was not in
attendance. The minister in the course
of the following week met Mr. John
stone and inquired of him the reason
of his absence from church on such an
important occasion. "Well, sir." replied
.Mr. Johnstone, "1 diuna care aboot ap
proa chin' my Maker in a speerit of sar
^asm."

The Washington Tost credits a whit
haired matron of that city with a clev

company with a young man from the
state department, to the music of :?
pianist.
The selections were all new to tiv!
young man till the "Wedding March
of Mendelssohn began.
"That's familiar," said he. "I'm noi
strong on music, but I know I've hean
that before. What is It?"
The matron's eyes twinkled wit:
mischief. "That." said she. "Is th>
'Maiden's Prayer.' "

' a" LITTLE NONSENSE.
How Tommy Was Rewarded For Tak
ing the Quinine.
The three-year-old was peevi?]
and fretful. His cheeks were flush
ed, his pulse irregular and his slee};
broken. The family physician hai.
prescribed quinine, ai^d it had beei:
administered with mamma's stern
and unrelentiug hand for a week or
longer. Papa had grown weary of
the nightly fracas and finally offer
ed the young hopeful a big, round
silver dollar if he would take the
quinine without crying. Much to
his surprise the offer was accepted,
five minutes later the small boy put
on his hat and started for the door.
"Where are you going, Tommy ?*'
asked papa.
"Goin' to de dwug store."
"Why, what for, Tommy ?"
"To buy a pound of quinine."
"But why do you want so much
quinine?"
"To take. If you give a dollar
for every time I tan buy a bicycle."
There is a bicycle in that family
and a good healthy boy astride it. ?

She Had Never Caught Any.
"Why is it," she asked, "that sr
manv of the men have shaved ofT
their mustaches?"
"1 think," he answered, "it must
be because the doctors claim mus
taches are likely to have microbes
in them."
"Oh," she exclaimed, "I never
caught any ? that is ? dear me ? 1
didn't mean" ?
But he assured her she needn't
j mind, as he was engaged to an
' other girl anyway.- ? Chicago Record

IiU Study of the Henrt.
j In his memoirs Adolf Kussmaui re
lates a curious story of a Heidelberg
i banker. This banker was known for
(lis haughty, forbidding manners; con
sequently Dr. Xuhn, the professor of
1 anatomy, was much surprised one day J
' when the banker came and sat with I
him in n railway ear and, after a pleas |
j ant chat, r.skt'd him all sorts of que* j
, tions, espeoii.liy about the anatomy oi j
| the heart. The next day he even called |
? by permission in the medical depart- j
j tnent and watched the professor dis j
j secting one of those organs. Then he ;
j drove home, and a few hours later it j
I became known that he bnd committed
| suicide by skillfully plunging a dagger j
i into his heart.

A Tough Chicken.
The Oilier day a gentleman enter
j ed a certain restaurant and orderei
a chicken. The chicken was evident
lj tough, for when the waiter cam<
in he beheld the gentleman in j- |
great state of wrath.
"Waiter/' he said, "this chicken 1? I
very tough;
"YerV sorry, sir. That chicken
was always a peculiar bird. Why.
when we wanted to kill it we could
not catch it, so ai last wc had to
shoot it. It flew on the house tops,
and" ?
? "Ah,? by Jove, that accounts for
j it! You must have shot the weath
! ercock by mistake." ? London An
