That is, Louise and Virgil cooking—the 'lever will be spoiled. .If a soft piece of homemade bread is rubbed en a scorch on woolen goods it will remove it entirely, Lacquered brass can be cleaned by washing m hot water, and a little soap may be added if nenesoary. An old piano stool will be found useful in the kitchen, as it can be adjusted to different heights. Acid a few minced elates to fudge as it comes from the stove, It will gives it a novel and delicious flavox. When it is difficult to turn ice cream out of its can allow cold wa- ter to run over the outside of the can. Water can be softened by boil- ing. A little borax or baking soda added to the water will also soften it, When the head feels congested, try holding the hands and wrists in hot water as long as you can stand it. Cotton crepe waists are much more wearable if they are starched in very thin starch and hong on a hanger to dry. To dampen clothes quickly sprinkle them with boiling water instead of cold. They can also be ironed more quickly. When a cake or pudding runs over on the stove. sprinkle salt on it at once, and the unpleasant odor will disappear. On children's every day garments, such as rompers, it is a good idea to use soutache braid instead of making buttonholes. When cleaning the mop boards, the wall can be protected with a piece of cardboard held at the up- per edge of the mop board. When polishing the stove, first rub the hands thoroughly with soap and 'allow it to dry, The polish will then wash off easily. The brine in which salt beef has been boiled can be poured on the garden walks. In this way weeds can be kept down.

Rag rugs are the very best to buy, as these wash well and last for years. If a pair of shoes has become stiffened with walking in the wet, they should first be washed with warm water and then have oil rub- bed into them. A common brass cup hook, such as is used in china cabinets and en cup racks, can easily be screwed into the end of a broomhandle, making an inexpensive and handy broom banger. In a large family where there are many children, much loss of time and annoyance is saved if, before putting stockings into the wash each week, each person will tack the two stockings of each pair at the hems.

We bad pressed tlrls lake in our little power -canoe, the Papoose. About four o'clock we cane buck to the shore. Onee out of the heavy woods, the beat Was intense, and it was so stili that not so much as an aspen leaf quivered. Louise sank down in the shade of a willow and fanned her- self with her sun hat, Virgil walked down the shore to find the nest of a sandpiper that we had flushed that morning, while I busied myself get- ting the motor ready. The town lay, across the lake five miles away, but plainly visible in the clear moun- tain air, We could even hear the whine of the great •eaves in the mills, and the labored breathing or the switch engine as it wrestled with the heavy loads •uf lumber. When all woe, ready I called to Virgil, and he and Louise took their places in the boat. "I feel as if something unusual' were going 'to happen," Louise said, as she seated herself. "I feel that way, too," I replied. "I feel that this motor is going to behave properly and start the first time I give the fly -wheel a turn." ''No, really," Louise insisted. "Have you never experienced a feeling as if something dark were hanging over you 7" "I wish I could experience some- thing dark, a cloud, for instance, that would shut out some of this heat," said Virgil. "'Have then thy wish,' " Louise quoted, and she pointed to the range of hills south of the lake. A huge 'black mass was rolling above the hilltops. "That isn't cloud," Virgil said. "It must be smoke, There is prob- ably a forest fire beyond the hills." "It is neither," I broke in; "it's dust. We are about to experience on 'the lake a danger that menaces travellers on the desert." We were now well out on the lake, and I hesitated whether to return or keep on. I watched the coming atorm, and decided that it would meet tis before we could make shore, and that the Papoose could not make head against it. So ,1 reached down and increased the speed of the motor. The little craft tore through the water. The cloud of dust had by this time dark- ened the sun. Already we could hear the howling cf the' gale and the crashing of the great trees up- rooted by the fury of. the blast. The lake was still calm and unruffled, but there was a milieu coppery tinge to the water. We saw the storm strike the lake three miles below. Instantly the calm water was lashed into foam, and a broad white band came tearing up the lake, preceded by a smother of blinding, choking .dust, It filled our eyes until we could not seer and, our nostrils until we could hardly breathe. In a few moments the white wall of water rolled upon us. The Papoose came near capsizing. "Pont,'' I called to Virgil, "and run before the gale!" He swung the boat, and the next wave struck her squarely astern, and drove her like an arrow into the one ahead. Louise sat perfectly still, holding to the thwarts, and watched the boiling sea. I blessed her ,courage, for if she had become frightened -and made a movement, the tiny boat would have foundered. The last sight I had of the shore, it was more than a mile distant. Now the dins(was so demo that it was invisible,. I took off my coat, knelt in the bottom, and held it over the motor to protect it from the flying spray, for. our lives de- pended upon it. Virgil held the steering -wheel. Louise -faced the situation with Admirable courage, although every time we struck a wave she was deluged with spray. The storm increased in fury, and aa we neared the shure we could heare the hoarse roar cf the break - erns on the beach. I peeredthrough tho.gloom, and ni'acle out dimly the fringe, of cotton -woods, then the Shore ]rue itself, Our boat could not live in that sea much longer ; she was half-filled with water al- ready., We were approaching the shore near the outlet el the city sewer. The outfall, held in pleee by up- right piling, stood fat' out in the- water, hewater, while nearer shore rose the long concrete tanks, over which the waves dashed; .Virgil saw that the wrater on the north side of the tanks was less turbulent, and turned the boat in that direction, 'Two men on shore had seen our danger, and hurried out upon the flat taps of the tanks to give u,ssistance. They stood in water to the want, and the waves alnost washed thctn.:off their feet. Louise roue, turned and crouched, ready to spring. Virgil drove.the boat within a few inches of the eonerete;.

According to a statement made in the Reiehstag by the German Min- isterof War, and corroborated in part by the.-1Viinietee of the Inter- ior, the birth rate in Germany is steadily falling, and if the present rate continues it will in a few years be as low as that of France, In 1876 the birth-rate in Germany was 30% per 1,000 inhabitants; in 1912 it had fallen to 29, indicating that in the period named; the decrease in births amounted to'' about three- quarters of a million per, year. Since the beginning of the cern tury the falling off in the birth-rate has assumed alarming proportions. In the 24 years from 1876 to 7900 .the decline in the rate per 1,000 was 3%, while from 1900 to 1919 it was 7, or more than double in 12 yeara what it was in the preceding quarter of: a century. Should this decrease eontinue,'.11 is estimated by Professor Wolff, the distinguish- ed mathematician and economist, that by 1920 Germany will be con- fronted by the painful fact and problem that her birth-rate will be the lowest in Europe. . But if the birth-rate in Germany has declined, ,5o also has the death - rate, and to this alone is doe the fact that in the 12 years since 1900 the population of the empire lyse increased by eight and a half mil- lions. The death -rate in 1876 was 96 per 1,000 inhabitants. In 1900 this was reduced 'to 20X, while last year the rate had fallen to 16%, .If the death -rate had not fallen, the Minister of the Interior estimates that there would be a reduction of the population to -day. Throughout the period' indicated ---from 1900 to 1919—the marriage -rate. remained the mime—about eight per 1,000 of the+ipopulation—so that, as the Minister of the Interior says, "the cause which (night explain the sur- prising lowering of the natality of German»' is not to be sought rn that direction" Went _Poo Far. A rich old woman had one hobby. It was the lavishing of-monec an interior decorations.- "Every roost in her mansion was clone' over time and again to suit her changing whims. One day she belt faint, and thinking a taste of claret would brace her rip, drank of a red liquid she thought was wine, but which afterwards 'turned out to be red The doctor, hurriedly sum- moned, impatiently shook his head, "Mrs, B---.-," he said, "there is such a thing es carrying this mania for interior decoration too far."

Since Dr, Alexis Carrel invented his me - thud of transfusing bloocl from one person to another merely by in- serting au Y-shaped tube into the arteries of one and connecting them (lith the veins in the arms of the one who is to receive the blood, it has been a comparatively simple matter to save many lives where formerly almost sure death occur- red. Dr. Bertram Bernheim, who has improved on many of Dr. Car- rell's devices, can now insert one of these glass tubes, shaped like a bow, in the arm, of any one -go that the patient's own blood will ;gave the upper part of the, arm and enter his crescent -like canal, through which it flows, to finally return to the individual's own blood stream in the lower arm. This is the first time that any one has ever sug- gested handling a man's blood while it w'aa alive and flowing through his veins. .This invention places all of the blood in your body at the disposal of the surgeon, who clan examine it, dilute it, weaken tt, filter it; analyse it, .atld• finally allow it to flow en like the sweet, gentle Avon, after it has been purified and strengthened. The stopcocks in- serted in tw.o places in the tube allow the doctor to flag the flowing blood as ho long as he pleases. Thus every ounce of blood in your body can be brought to cu pause for a longer or shorter period, and any kind of harmless manipulation can be carried on, Meanwhile, the rest of the blood is switched off in another channel, and the circulation is in no way in- terfered with. At the same time a solution of a pertain salt keepe the stationary parts of the blood from clotting, and at 'the same time this is transpiring the surgeon can ab- stract every last vestige of such poison as bichloride of mercury. Moreover, this is all Clone in less than the seven minutes necessary for all of the blood to complete a full circuit of the body. If, how- ever, there is any reason for the patient fie rest, eat or attend to his business, or for the doctor to go about his affairs, a bandage is put around the arm, and at some other time the filtering is continued. The boon that such a, contrivance could have worked for Mr. Walker is evident. Ile lived more than a week and the seven grains of the poison must have circulated over THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON 1N'1'EItN 1'1'TON.%14 L,ESrSON, AUGUST 10, Lesson V1. '1'lte i'aetiuver.
