BABY'S LITTLE ILLS.
Baby's little ills are many and
need close attention. Worms are
among the most common of these
ailments—there being scarcely a
child who is not afflicted by them
some time or other. These though
can be readily banished by the
frequent use of Baby's Own Tab-
lets— the only remedy sold under
the guarantee of a government
analyst to contain no opiate or
fe other harmful drug. Concerning
C them Mrs Jos. 'Nagle, Ste.Perpet-
! ue, Que., writes:•—"My baby was
c troubled with worms; he was ner-
[ vous and had no appetite. I gave
[ him Baby's Own Tablets and he
c was soon well again." The Tab -
t lets are sold by medicine dealers
[ or by mail at25 cents a box from

To Make Hard Soap.
Take 5;.; pounds of clean fat, tallow
or lard, and melt it in a large iron
kettle, then add the contents of one
can of high-test powdered lye; stir un-
til wet mixed. Then. add 31-i gallons of
soft water, boil for half an hour or un-
til the soap is as thick as jelly or thick
molasses. If the grease was free from
salt, add a rounding tablespoonful of
salt and boil ten minutes longer. You
may put in half a pound of powdered
borax if you wish. Sometimes I put it
in but not always. It softens the water
and whitens the clothes. The lye must
be powdered and the grease and lye
thoroughly melted together before any
water goes in it. Allow it to cool and
then cut into bars. It is economy to
save all the scraps of fat, for good soap
may be easily made in this way.—Far-
mers's wife.
