Add a few sprigs of mint to fresh i peas and new potatoes when they are boiling, It greatly improves their fla- vor. The hand can be protected against steam and hot pans if panholders are made in the form of thick pockets. In boiling meats the seasoning should be put into the water, that it may pen- etrate the meat. Silver should be washed in a bowl or basin by itself. It should always be well rinsed in order to retain the pol- ish. | ‘When {rying fish, if the pieces are put in the hot fat with the skin side uppermost and 2allowed to brown be- fore turning, the fish will not break when cooking. 1t is claimed that woody house plants that grow bark can be strengtnened and made to flourish e the proverb- ial bay tree if given iron water, soak- ed from rusted iron and poured into the soil. ° ‘ CLEANING UPHOLSTERY To remove marks made on leather upholstery by leaning the head or resting the arms on it use the foilow- ing: Boil half a pint of linseed oil, let it stand until nearly cold and then stir in half a pint of gar until it is well mixed. It may then be bottled. Pour a few drops on a piece of flannel and apply to the leather, then polish with a soft dust cloth. 1f you have stains of ink on the carpet or rug do not.despair. Do not use oxalic acid or the color will come out. Soak up what ink you gan with blotters and then bring forth a can of condensed milk., Dilute with water and pour it over the spot while it is still wet. FOR WOODEN TABLES. Unfinished wooden tables require much scrubbing, and under constant e become stained and unsightly. Sheet > is often used on table tops. It should be.brought well over the edges ed carefully so that no water can get underneath. and so that no sharp edges are expos- ed. Zinc has the advantage of being proof against hot utensils, but it is ffected by both acids and alkalies and |is, therefore, rather hard to keep in condition, - It is not a suitable material to come in contact with many foods. [ Oilwloth is also widely used for cov- | ering tables, but linoleum, although more expensive, is far more durable, especially when. fastened to the table with waterproof cement. - HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

S > The present tendency is to allow the hairs to grow as long and glossy as nature will permit, occasionally re- moving a few straggling hairs if ne- cessary. The tender hairs in the eye- brows and lashes are in general most abused. The constant use of face powder has a drying effect, and like hair on the head they have roots that wmust be kept well nourished and stim- ulated. An excellent daily exercise is to take the hairs ‘between the first finger and thumb, which first have been anoited with vaseline, and to pull the hairs in the direction of their growth, never hard enough, however, to remove them.! This will stimulate the roots just as brushing the hair in thc head wiil help 2 healthy growth. In a short time the brows and lashes Wwill not only become long and glossy but will materially enhance the charm of the face. A good rule is never to consider the toilet completedd until the lips, brows and lashes have had their attention. TO WASH 'WINDOWS. Use a piece of chamois skin about fifteen to eighteen inches square. Use warm water, wring out the chamois lightly and wash over the window. Then wring the chamois out of water ; This will take off all the moisture and there will be not lint left. The windows will shine, and once tried you will never wash your windows any other way.

There was some grumbling at the time by a few congressmen over “adding a | refrigerator to the United States.” But the refrigerator has been found to - be well stocked with, gold, coal, forests and ! fisheries, so that Alaska has proven a { profitable investment. As a territory, its j officials are appointed by the pres®lent, }and it is represented in the federal house of representatives by one delegate, elect- led by the people, who may debate but not vote.

TERRITORIES Hawaii, like Alaska, is @ regular ter-| were ceded to the United States in 1899 as a result of the Spanish-AméTican war. Porto Rico and the Philippines are de- pendencies and not territories. Their cal affairs are administered by a legi: ture of two houses and they are repre- sented in the United States by resident commissioners elected by the legislatures. Guam is under the control of naval offi- cers in command of the naval stations. Under similar naval control are the Tu- tuila Group and Samona, which Wwere ceded in 1899 by Great Britain and Ger- many. Then there is the Panama Canal Zone, which was purchased from Panama in 1904 for $10,000,000. This is governed by the isthmian canal commission un- der the supervision of the war depart- ment and of course has no presidential vote. 1917 saw the purchase from Denmark of the Virgin Islands for $25,000,000. These aggregate only 150 square miles and are temporarily governed by a naval officer. Finally, there is the district of Co- lumbia, which was organized in 1791, as the seal of our federal government. The Tesidents have no vote for either local or national officials, nor aré they represent- ed in congress. Congress acts as the 'lo- cal legislature for the district and three commissioners appointed by the presi- dent as the administrative body. Quaer 17 Million Jars Used Yada - The Plaut-Cadden Co.
