Thrifty Ways: Please give direc-
tions for making a rug out of small
pieces of Brussels carpet.
Cut the carpet into strips three
inches in width, then ravel, rejecting
the linen foundation threads and •sav-
ing those of crimped woolen yarn.
The woolen threads should be of uni-
form length. With a pair of the
largest size steel knitting -needles (or
a ecmilar size in wood or celluloid)
and at ball of Catton carpet yarn, cast
on ten stitches and knit two rows for
the beginning, In the next row, lay
a thread of the w001 across the
needles, with every other stitch. After
knotting the st:iteh, take the end of
wool which shows upon the wrong
side, and turn it toward the right
side, knitting a stitch to secure It.
Then put in enother thread of wool
and repeat the process. The back of
the strips will have an appearance
somewhat like that of body Brussels
carpet, bile the front will resomble
thick, long -napped plush. Make strips
the desired length and when all are
finished they must be sewed together
on the wrong side. It is only for
convenience that they are knitted in
strips—the rug, as a whole, would be
very cumbersome and unwieldy to
!handle.

During the dance a red glow from the

The "Harvest Home Dance" was the
supper dance. Paper costume caps
suggesting fruit and vegetables were
given out, and worn so that the whole
room seemed to be filled with a har-
vest medley. Tomato, carrot, corn,
apple, wheat, squash, grapes, popcorn,
watermelon, and blackberry were all
represented.

INTERNATIONAL LESSON
OCTOBER 19.
Jesus In Peter's Ilome—Mark 1: 29-
39. Golden Text, Luke 19: 9.
"Simon's wife'.: another." There is
another reference to Peter's wife in
1 Cor. 9: 5. Flee mother was evidently
a beloved and kindly member of the,
family. Her first act when she •was,
healed of the fever, was to minister to 1
her daughter's guests. Luke (4: 88)
calls her sickness "a great fever."
There was much marshy land in 'that
region, especially' where the river
Jordan enters the lake, and malarial
fever was common. No doubt the
healing ministry of Jesus entered
many another home besides that of
Peter. He is still the great Physician,
teaching by His spirit, tare and
thought for all who suffer, and
prompting the gentle ministry of doc-
tor and nurse in the homes and hospi-
tals of our land.
"At even." When the sun set, ac-
cording to their way of reckoning
time, the Sabbath day was over. It
was then lawful for them to carry
their sick through the streets and
bring them to the door of the house
in which Jesus was staying. "He
healed many." Such was the scene at
the close of this busy day. The people
lingered until darkness drove them to
their homes.

of the Rosman Empire, and far to the
East, ever seeking to bring the gospel

beyond.
"0, with what divers pains they met
0, with what joy they went away!'
Many forms of sickness in the East
to tho present day, are regarded as
caused by the presence of evil spirits,
and especially insanity and epilepsy
Jesus was profoundly interested in
these poor sufferers, and restored
many of then( to sanity and health
both 01 body and mind. Our mission-
aries in the East follow the example
of Jesus, and they'find through atten-
tion to the sick and through the
agency of hospitals and dispensaries
an open door to the hearts of the peo-
ple. Their ministry, liko Hie, is in
preaching, teaching, and healing.

The big fur ]rouses are always ad-
vertising that they want good coon
pelts and drill pay good prices for
them. Every year- boys make good
pocket money trapping for this mem-
ber of the animal kingdom, and if
you are a novice at the game, here are
a few suggestions about coons and
coot trapping:
Coons live either in hollow trees or
in holes, when no trees can be found.
They are frequently found in corn-
fields, too. They are possessed of groat
curiosity that often leads them into
traps; for instance, a shiny piece of
tin, a bright piece of glass, or a piece
of white crockery frequently acts as a
fascinating lure. Many trappers use
these to bait traps set in shallow
water of streams that the coons fol-
low.
When you find a coon in a tree you
may either shoot him or trap !nim.
The way to trap him is to place your
trap on a study sapling, cover it with
moss or leaves, thele place the sapling
against the tree. If there are a num-
ber of coon's in a hollow tree a good
smoker will get them out where they
can be shot.
Along streams, any hollow log,
Mellow stump, old boulder with a hole
in it makes a good place to set your
coon trap.
Coons like to eat fish, clams, craw-
fish, birds, eggs, poultry, fruits and
vegetables. They axe particularly
fond of grapes and corn and are some-
times caught in great numbers in
cornfields and vineyards. If you plan
to make your sets its either of these
places, gdo along the forces until you
find coon tracks that show where the
coots go through the fence. There
set your traps. Cover them over with
dirt. Sprinkle fish scent .around.
Along stream beds•that have high
banks arc} 'shallow water it is a good
plan to dig a number of -holes ,into
the banks at the water edge. They
should be from six to eight inches
deep. In the back of the holes fasten
a piece o1 bait. In front of them,
under water, set your trap.

"Ellen," Ralph observed ironically,
ignoring the question of Tom's man-

Fall Dairy Ob..ervations.
Before allowing the cows to begin
on the accumulation of the season's
crops, why not know if they are the
kind of cows that can pay their board.
Many farmers lose money in the dairy
business by spending most of the year
in growing feed to bo used for a herd
that is not producing a paying amount
of milk,
But be sure that there is nothing
wrong with the method of housing and
feeding the cows before they are dis-
carded as boarders that do not pay
noir bills. Much depends on the
owner of the cows and sometimes
good cows produce much less than
they should because they are given
poor care.
Cows are often considered machines
which can be stuffed with- raw ma-
terials without limit and then produce
a finished produet to which there ds
also no limit. This is not exactly
right. A machine is without life and
feeling but a cote is an animal with
a highly developed nervous tempera-
ment that responds or fails to respond
according to the treatment received.
That is why some farmers these much
better with cows than other farmers.
The successful breeders study thole
sows as individuals and try to keep
them contented and satisfied and free
from abuse. They know that there is
more to dairy management than
"stuffing the machine."
Shouting around around the stables will dis-
turb cows and reduce the flow of milk.
A clog that is not 'well trained will
bring the cattle to the ,barn on- the
run or worry them all the way from
the field. Tltis is not good for milk
production. •During the fly season
cows will kick oven though thclr dis-
"Here's my idea of

one that sharpens its own blaoesr°
"Why, X remember
when 'I used to have to
throw away a blade
after a couple of shaves.
Now, I simply take it
and give a few turns on
the strop and it's as
good as ever.
"I can shave in three minutes,
and .ny face is OS smooth and
slick and comfortable as when
the head barber used to go
over it. To clean, 1 simply
put the blade under the top
and wipe it off. There's no
taking the razor to pieces and
messing around with parts.
In fact, the whole thing le so
simple end easy, I wish i had
had one 10114 gun."
