Never leave medicines, drink or
food uncovered in the sick roan.
A drop of kerosene on the hinge
of a door will stop its squiealcing.
To cover the pan in which fish is
cooking will make the fish soft,
Never let a comb soak iii order to
clean it. Use a stiff nail brush.
Ovalle acid and javelfe water are
excellent for removing ink stains,
A clam shell placed inside the
kettle will prevent the formation of
lime.
Green window shades should pro-
vide darkness for baby's daytime
nape.
Embroideries and colored ger-
merits should be ironed on the,
wrong side.
Clean tins with soap and whiting,
rulblbed on with a piece oif flannel,
One of the very best health
guards is the drinking of a great
deal of water.
If a carpeted floor is sprinkled
quickly witch a fine sprinkler, the
sweeping process will raise less
dust.
Odd bits of :soap, when gathered
up and boiled, make a splendid
shaanpoo jelly.
Don't forget that even through
drawn blinds, shafts of strong sun-
light find their way. Notice where

When the fire is running low and
a quick oven is wantee, open the

When velvet is spotted or stain-
ed, it sometimes as helpful to dip a

The rapid evaporation of the ink

saturating the cotton with water.
White' straws are Ibest cleaned

WORLD IS NOT CB.OWDLD.
Nearly Entire Population Could
Stand in County of London.
We are constantly hearing that
the population of the world is in-
creasing en rapidly that it is impos-
sible foe the food supply to keep up
with it, says London Answers. But
as regards crowding, the population
of the world will have to increase a
lot more before we begin serio:ualy
to sufferfrom lack -of elbow -room.
Working on the fact–supplied by
Scotland Yard that in an average
crowd there are four .persons stand-

OUR .LONDON LETTER
Earl Granville's New Poet.
An interesting appointment is that of
Earl Granville to be Councillor of Em-
bassy at Paris, in view of the connection
of hie family with the French capital.
The Mut Earl, brother of the second Mar-
quis of Stafford, began the diplomatic
traditions of his branch of the Leveson -
Gower family when he was sent as Am.
bnesador Extraordinary to St. Peternbnrg
in 1804. After a period at Brussels he was
appointed Ambassador in Pirie in 1824.
In those days it was the English Am-
taseador in Paris rather than the Preneh
Ambassador in London who transacted
all the business between the two aeon,
trice, and Granville's friendship with De
Broglie and with the Icing made his posi-
tion ay commanding one, while his exilotte
at play earned rum the title of Ls Wel-
lington dos Joueurs. ills son, the second
Earl, began his diplomatic career as an
Attache in Paris in 1840 and became
Foreign Minister eleven years later. He
also wee a favorite in Pranoe, and the
growth of the entente cordiale in the
60s was largely due to his personal in.
fluence.
Lord sesebery's .Public Gift.
Lord Rose'bery, as a mark of affection
for Epsom, has presented to the local
council as a public pleasure ground about
twelve acres of land known as the Com-
mon Fields• whieh lie between the High.
street of the town and the downs. - His
gift was announced in the following letter'
to J. H. Smith, the chairman of the ur-
ban council:
'I have just acquired what are milled,
I think, the Conner» Fields, oomprrsing
eleven or twelve soros at Woodoote, and
in Cho hope that the town of Epsom will
accept them and the urban council take
44herga of them as a free and open space
'i have of late .rather lost my old inti-
mate 000001ion with Epsom, I am sorry
to say, partly from longer absence and
partly from loss of face memories, so that
I am all .the more .anxious togive this
proof of my deep and abiding affection
for the platy and people; • Resebery.
"P.S.—when the council has decided on
the use that it proposes to make of the
ground -I should like to be allowed to con-
tribute toward laying it out."

The Passing of the Penny.
The penny, where supremacy is now
threatened, has had a good long innings.
For over six centuries it was practically
the only English coin, for nvhile the flor-
in did not appear until 1343, the penny
was introduced by Ora, Ding of Marcia,
who took as a model a coin struck by the
father of Charlemagne.

and it wos .not until the time of George

SUNSIiINE iS MEDICINE.
Paris Areilteot Suggests More
'Light for 'Tenements.
Paris, the "city of light," is wor-
ried by the growth of tuberculosis,
in its midst. One of its leading
architects, Augustin Rey, comes
forth with a remedy. The remedy,
ho says, is more light. There ie no
mors effective microbe killer than
sunshine.
Architect Rey urges, therefore,
that tuberoulosia be attacked at its
roots–that is, that cities should be
so planned and. )aid out as to get
the maximum. of sunshine, and
thus naturally exclude the cbisease.
Cities of the future, he says, must
be constructed's° that the direction,
of all etreets should correspond
with the daily course of the sun.

'In compliance with the explicit
command of Jehovah, "Get thee up

The plains, or steppes, of Moab

plain lying between the mountains
of Moab and the Jordan. 1t is the
eastern counterpart of the plain of
Jericho which lies opposite on the

just north of the northern end of

for the some spot, of which the one
may be taken as fixing the place
a little more .precisely than the
other. The name "Neha" is pre-
served in the modern "Neba,)' the
present name of a mountain nine
and a hall miles due west of the
northeastern end of the Dead Sea.
This mountain may be the ancient
Nebo. The name "Piagah," how-
ever, does not occur among the
modern designations of places in
this vicinity, and seems not to have
been preserved.
