COTTON MARKET
New York June 13 — The cotton
market opened steady at an advance
of 23 points and during the early
session sold 4 to 8 points net higher

vance was probably encouraged by
reports of a break iu the Red river

Shreveport but otherwise new crop
conditions were favortfble and the
market failed to attract anything like
aggressive bull support Liverpool
was closed for the day and week and
figures were about as expected

ALUM TO KILL INSECTS
Guaranteed to Drive Away Enemies of
Domestic Peace
Dissolve two pounds of alum In
three quarts of water Let it remain
over night until all alum la dissolved
Then with a brush apply boiling hot
to joints or crevices In the closet or
shelves where croton bugs ants cocks
roaches etc Intrude also Joints and
crevices of bedsteads as bedbugs can-
not live where this solution la ap-
plied To keep woolens and furs from
moths be sure that none are In the
article when put away then take a
piece of strong brown paper with not
a hole through which even a pin can
enter Put the article in it with sev-
eral lumps of gum camphor between the
folds place this In a closed box Cover
every joint with paper A piece of
cotton cloth if thick and firm will an-
swer Russian leather tobacco leaves
whole cloves also are used to pre-
serve furs or woolens from moths
Mice never get into trunks or draw-
ers where gum camphor is placed
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
If pecan nuts are soaked over night
In water when cracked the kernels
will come out whole
Sun blinds and shades should be un-
rolled and examined to see If they re-
lulre mending or cleaning The best
way to mend a tear Is to coaguline a
piece of the same material on at the
back
A garment made of almost any ma-
terial may be creamed with tea ' Make
the tea strong and soak the garment
will in It Iron the garment before
it dries and the color will be a pretty
cream The tea does not streak the
goods as coffee does and Is a prettier
color and less expensive than the
creaming substance that Is bought
After cooky dough has been pre-
pared Instead of using a cutter in the
old way turn out part of the dough at
a time on bread board and with the
hand roll a long round roll about five
inches thick Then with a sharp knife
cut off in small pieces about one-half
Inch thick place in baking pan and
give plenty of room to swell or spread
Will bake in perfect shape and is
much quicker
IN THE HOME
An open fire la certainly a happy
feature In it
Chairs that can be sat upon are a
more necessary essential than some
housewives think
In the living room there must be a
softly shaded light placed low for read-
lng and sewing
Readable books and magazines lying
around loose are one of the Important
things
A carpet that can be walked on by
the family Is much better than one
preserved for the sacred feet of stran-
gers Stilted “suits” of furniture are
good thing to avoid also loud papers
and highly colored pictures
As to tobacco smoke and dust — well
there have been homes with them and
places without them that utterly failed
to be homes
Cheerfulness and love and mutual
accommodation as to tastes go further
to make a real home than over-zealoun
spotlessness and everlasting over
sight

HOT ONIONS FOR PNEUMONIA
Dread Disease Robbed of tta Terrors
by 8lmple Remedy
Owing to the prevalence of pneu-
monia and the great mortality which
attendB Its ravages during the winter
and spring several boards of health
In northern New Jersey have been tak-
ing measures to protect tbe citizens of
I heir towns from the disease Tbe
health board of Washington N J has
published a remedy which Is said to
be a sure cure for pneumonia and
other health boards are looking into
the matter with a view of having the
same thing published for tbe good of
the general public This Is tbe pub-
lication as it traa appeared tn the pa-
pers of Washington:
“Take six or ten onions according
to size and chop fine put In a large
spider over a hot fire then add the
same quantity of rye meal and vine-
gar enough to form a thick paste In
the meanwhile stir It thoroughly let-
ting it simmer five or ten minutes
Then put In a cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to chest
as hot as patient can bear In about
ten minutes apply another and thus
continue by reheating tbe poultices
and in a few hours the patient will he
out of danger This Blmple remedy
has never failed to cure this too-often
fatal malady Usually three or four
applications will be sufficient but con-
tinue always until the perspiration
starts freely from the chest This rem-
edy was formulated many years ago
by one of the best physicians New
England has ever known who never
lost a patient by the disease and won
his renown by simple remedies"
"Internal Revenue” Collections
The term “Internal revenue” baa
Jeen restricted In its meaning to auch
revenues only as are collected under
the internal revenue bureau con-
nected with the treasury department
and does not include all revenues that
are properly speaking from Internal
sources that Is from sources other
than duties levied at the frontiers
upon foreign commodities Thus
moneys arising from the sale of public
lands from patent fees or tbe reve-
nues of the postal service are not gen-
erally known as “Internal revenues”
