CLEAN UP NECESSARY
ANNUAL TURNOVER AN IMPOR
TANT OCCASION.
If Only to Get Rid of Useless Odds
and Ends the Time Devoted
to Furbishing is Well.
Spent.
There is nothing in connection with
household economies that is of more
importance than sanitation and venti
laUoa.
Housekeepers in the city scorn the
country woman's custom of a general
uphearai every spring and fall, but a
little thought convinces that the coun-
try woman has the right of it. The
housemaid's daily efforts, even where
tbey are supplemented by the service/
of a charwoman, are not really suf-
ficient, because at best they are never
altogether thorough. Then, too, we
ail know how rapidly useless things
"clutter up" a place. Nothing short of
the regulation semi-annual cleaning
seems to give the impetus necessary
to get at them.
It is a mistake to hoard half-worn
things. Convenience is so often sacri-
ficed to sentiment. Mother hates to
part with Willie's first pair of trousers,
or the cunning little pinafore that be-
longed to Mary Jane's baby; but these
tilings take up space—often where
space is at a premium.
Where a house or an apartment has
been closed In the summer time, gen-
eral renovation is a necessity. When
house-cleaning is pursued systematic-
ally—if the term may be applied to
anything in itself so disrupting—half
the labor of it is eliminated, llut it is
unwise to leave the work entirely in
(toe hands of a servant. If the careful
housewife does not, as many of them
do, put on cap and apron, she at
least, supervises the process.
This is the way in which one wom-
an achieves sanitation. Hers is a
large house, with several servants, but
she always takes an active interest in
domestic affairs. Never by any chance
does she permit spring and fall to
pass without the house-cleaning the
country woman believes in. Incident-
ally, M is interesting to note—al-
though it is not wholly relevant—that
there has not been a case of illness in
the house for several years.
In the beginning, boxes and trunks
are looked after. Everything not of
recognizable value is disposed of. Each
room is subjected to a thorough fumi-
gation. The following morning win-
dows are thrown open, and the house
is aired. By this method not only are
Wes, mosquitoes and roaches destroy-
ed, but possibilities of disease from
other sources are materially lessened.
It is a precaution that is well worth
the trouble.
Now begins the real process of
cleaning—the drudgery. The place is
swept first with a broom, and then
with a dry mop slightly dampened in
ammonia water. When the little dust
that remains has settled all wood sur-
faces are gone over with a soft, damp
oloth.
Paraffine has other uses than for
covering jams and jellies. A thin
ooating of paraffine over cheese will
keep it in perfect condition through
any number of hot days, and will also
prevent its shrinkage.
If farmers were to coat the inside of
the wooden tubs for butter with par-
affine, it would prevent the contents
from absorbing the wood-taste that is
so often noticed even in the best of
butter.
For all purposes paraffine should be
melted and applied to a cold surface.
Eggs, coated with it are preserved
longer than by any othor method. Par-
affine is acid proof, so that if the cork
of bottles containing acids or other
strong chemicals are soaked in hot
paraffine the contents will not affect
them. A small piece of it will be
found quite as useful as beeswax tu
cleaning flatirons or waxing thread.
Feather Cake.
Feather cake approaches a sponge
cake. It is not so light, but proper
sifting of flour and proper beating of
eggs will help in its success. One-
/half cupful of butter, two of sugar,
three cupfuls of flour and three eggs,
(me cupful of milk, three teaspoonfuls
of baking powder, one pound of Ens
lish walnuts. Save 35 half meats
whole and the rest chop fine. Bake
Yn a dripping pan; frost and cut into
squares and put one of the nut meats
on each cake.
German Meat Sauce.
Four quarts of ripe tomatoes chopped
fine, one cup of red peppers cut in
pieces, one cup of chopped onions, 1
cups sugar, one-half cup salt, 1 V& pints
of vinegar, 1% teaspoons of cloves, the
same of cinnamon, one teaspoon of
nutmeg, the same of celery seed, one
tablespoon of mustard seed. Boil for
three hours, then bottle and seal.
Good for all kinds of meats.
I
French Rolls.
One quart of light dougb, three
fonrths cup sugar, one-fourth cup of
lard, one egg; work in flour to stiffen,
but not as stiff as bread. When light
roll out. Cut with round cutter,
spread butter on one-half, turn the
other half over; let rise again, and

PERFECT HEALTH.
After Years of Backache, Dizziness
and Kidney Disorders.
Mrs. R. C. Richmond, of Northwood,
Iowa, says: "For years I was a
martyr to kidney
trouble, backache,
dizzy spells, head-
aches and a ter-
rible bearing-cown
rain. I used oue
remedy aft Or an-
other without bene-
fit. Finally I used
a hox of Doan's
Kidney Pills and the backache ceased.
Encouraged, I kept on, and by tho
time I had used three boxes not a
sign of the trouble remained. My
health is perfect."

A correspondent writes the Winni-

out failure, dry seasons and wet, for
about 25 years, is excelling itself this

phenomenal, as has been the weather
for its harvesting. Forty bushels is a
common yield, and many fields go up
to 50, Gd and over, and most of it No.

less favorable, similar yields were in
some cases obtained, but owing to the

Willie is a little boy who is noted in
his neighborhood for his cruelty to
animals. The latest story is that just
for fun he took a pair of scissors and
cold-hloodedly c«l eff a kitten's tail.
One of the older girls was reproaching
him for his cruelty and telling him
what a wicked thing he had done.
He flatly denied doing anything of
the sort.
"Why, Willie, how can you tell such
a story?" the girl asked. ' Everybody
knows you did it."
"I did not! T did not," he reiterated
when pressed further. "I didn't do
any such a thing. It wath a dog.''
