Apparently too little regard is given to the sale of dynamite and high ex- plostves to irresponsible persons, and in the case of transactions known to be perfectly safe, a lack of proper and use-by those who intepd it for other than legitimate purposes exists. The trial of the dynamiters now under way-indicates plainly enough that this gang would have been robbed of its terror had they been unable to get hold of the dynamite and nitro-glycerine with which they caused so much de- struction. Many cities have figured in the plots of the dynamiters, and Los Angeles | feared a repetition when a crank | showed up with an infernal machine | capable of blowing up an entire| block.

It is questionabie, however, whetler such is a proper course to be taken, but, if it is, whether it should come from a private source from the | government, is still due for much con- | sideration. Theugh there is plenty of means for ing care of the ex-presidents, and | h a gratuity in any other direction 1id meet with most cordial approv- it is hardly the proper thing for a private benefactor to take care of ex-| nresidents just because they have been hosen to be at the head of the na- m's affairs. It is putting an added fum upon the office of president, means a salary for life.

It would be a Tuch wiser course, however, in event f pensioning ex-presidents that it come through the government, that any obligation incurred better be to the country than to an individual.

When making “thickening” - for sauces, gravies, etc., use half flour and half cornstarch. When chopping mint for sauce, If the sugar that is to sweeten it 15_ added it will be found to chop in half the time. A tablespoonful of washing soda and a cup of vinegar poured down the sink will clean out the most stubborn of clogged pipes. It is said that a small piece of sugar added to the water in which cut flow- s are placed will keep the water h and sweet. A cheap and durable toaster for a gas stove is a piece of sheet irom. Over this a 5-cent wire toaster can be used without danger of burning or blackening the bread. A white plume can be cleaned suc- cessfully by dipping it in raw, cold starch, slightly blued, then let dry and shake off the powdered starch. If not clean, repeat. For removing old paint make a lye with one can of potash and half e gal- lon of water, apply with an ol paint brush and do not touch with the hands, as it will burn. Wash off and dry well. When nails_are knocked into hard wood they often bend. To prevent this, dip each nail in a little sweet ofl or any kind of oil before driving into | the wood, and they will not bend. Those who have a lot of washing find clothes pegs often split. If, n new ones are bought, they are put into water and brought to the boil, then pegged on to a stretch of clothes line until dry, they will be st a great deal longer than when used s ght away. To prevent the ravelings interfering | with the making of buttonholes on any | mate ial, stitch around the edge of the nhole on the sewing machine be- fore cutting it, and you will have no difficulty in making a strong, neat buttonhole. NOVEL SHOE CASE. A woman who is hard on her silk stockings has learned to utilize the tops for bags for her shoes and slip- pers. When the runs and holes get undarnable the tops of the stockings are midway of the leg and the lower sewed across in a French seam. A shoe is kept in each of these stock- ing bags, which take up no room, cost hing and act as an absorber of dust. Sometimes the kind of shoes is outlined -on the hem to make them more eas!ly distinguishable. PICKLED PEPPERS. Choose rather large peppers; wash clean, cut off the tops and scrape out Fill with a mixture made To two quarts of finely hopped cabbage add four large on- ions, about two tablespoons of the pepper seed, two tablespoons of salt, and either two cups of chopped celery or one-half teaspoon of celery seed. Pack the peppers as solidly as possi- ble, taking care not to burst them, and pr the tops back on. Lay in jars or crocks and cover with hot vinegar. { To one gallon of vinegar use about half water if the vinegar is very strong; add four cups of sugar and a teaspoon of mixed spices; any spice liked extra well can be used. Cover the peppers and set away where cool. They do not need sealing. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. A calm mind invariably shows itself in the youthful face of its owner, and there is no surer preventive of wrin- kles. There should never be any undue pressure on the throat, especially for full blooded persons. Anything that retards the circulation in the large artery that carries the blood to the head should be avoided. Dress rthe throat loose enough to allow free { movement of the head. A New York skin specialist says: “Had 1 to choose between the cook and the apothecary as colaborer, I think I would not hesitate for a mo- ment to yoke myself with the former.” He goes on to say that “the board kills more than the sword.” Many people eat not only the wrong foods, but too much of them. - Regular bathing with hot water be- fore bedtime is said by ome of the S C was placed where he will do no harm to anyone. Lisbon is again being heard from on the road question. That always was a first-class town for a division of opinions on highways, but improve- ments most anywhere ought to be wel- comed by them. Hillsville, Va., and New York can exchange congratulations. They bid fair to get rid of gangs who have dominated their sections long enough. In each instance the departure will be along the same route. If it isn’t ome thing it is another. Last year the water supply was fast diminishing, and now there’s only ten days’ supply of coal in the market. It's a Jucky thing the ash sieves haven't been cornered. Norwich can appreciate Hartford's hesitancy in the use of river water for drinking purposes. It is an unwel- come outlook at the best, but means an increase business for the spring water bottlers thereabouts. ‘When the mayor of Hot Springs wrote Sam Schepps that he would not be permitted in that city again, he took a step that will do more than anything else in the way of law to suppress such characters. . Mr. Wilson was much excited over being photographed in Bermuda. He should remember that he has four long years of that ahead of him, and the quicker he gets used to it, the better for his peace of mind. But little sympathy will be wasted on the New Yerk coal dealer, who was sent to jail for selling short- weight coal. The consumer is getting trimmed badly enough without this kind of a get-rich-quick scheme, Widespread purchase of autos by the farmers is reported. This may account to a certain extent for the mortgages which have been placed on farms, and recalls the statement of a wise business man that a mertgage is a luxury.

He also recom- mends for tired eyes that have been strained by close application to work to look out the window at a view that is distant; in other words, look at some distant point for ten minutes, so as to entirely change the focus of the eyes. When the hair begins to thin around the back of the neck and on the tem- ples it is a danger signal. Use a hair tonic and massage the scalp every day. Don’t rub the fingers over the sc like mad and rub off what hair is in clined to stay, or the new that is t; ing to grow—that is not massage. Place the fingers firmly on the scalp and with a rotary motion work all over the head, moving the secalp with every rotation of the fingers. It is necessary t6 keep the scalp fairly loose if you want the hair to grow. CARE OF GLASSWARE. The pressed glass articles nowadays are such good imitations of the real many women prefer to use them for every day rather than the most costly kind. In the case of breakage there is much less to regret. But the cheaper glass must be kept in good condition if it is to keep its brilliancy. In fact, it requires the same given to cut glass. Few women need to be told g Wware which has contained milk must be rinsed in cold water before being put into the h Hot water only makes the milk stick more closely, and unless it is rinsed off in cold water | the glass will be cloudy even with careful washing in hot water. The safer plan is to wash one piece of glass at a time, and in the case of expensive cut glass a cloth should be laid at the bottom of the dishpan as a precaution.

You can bring back the natural color of your hair in a few days and and foreer rid yourself of any dand- ruff and loose hairs, and make your hair grow strong and beautiful by Remedy.
