• WHEN KIDDIES GET HURT
Every parent should be able to give
first aid to injured kiddies. This, of
course applies only to minor injuries.
In case of major injuries immediately
send for the doctor and don't attempt
to area injuries you know nothing a-
bout, except to quieten anal, soothe the
child with the doctor arrives.
The commonest of childberas accid-
ents is probably burning. • If it is
merely a painful scorch, a piece of
soap smeared over the surface of the
barn will take out the smart immad-
iately. Should the burn be deeper
and look angry, wrap it in a soft rag
soaked in olive or , other oil, On no
• account try to rem6ve pieces of burnt
clothing front a wound, as this shotdd

of a doctor.

Sprains are also very commoi and

Merely bandage the spreined part
firmly. If it is the ankle don't waste
time removing the shoe but bandage
right over it. If the sprain is not
bad apply cold water to prevent con-
tusion and then bandage firmly.
Then there are little troubles caus-
ed by over -excitement such as nose-
bleeding. Do not stop this too quick-
ly as it relieves the overcharged brain.
Make the child lie clown and if the
bleeding doesn't stop after Its minut-

HINTS FOR THE HOME
Vegetables absorb each other's flav-
or, therefore the various kinds should
be kept apart.
Clean dirty brass by rubbing it with
a cut lemon ,and polish with a soft
cloth.
Cheese will keep soft and fresh if
covered with a piece of muslin wrung
out in vinegar.
To remove'fat from hot soup pour
the soup through a cloth that has bsen
saturat,ed in cold water.
A cracked egg will boil without loss
and poached eggs will cook much
quick -el; if vinegar is added to the
water. •
If the blue bag is squeezed hi water
in which glass,es are to be washed,
they will sparkle when dried and pol-
ished.
1 There is no better way of cleaning
, fumed oak furniture than by washing
it with hot water in which a little
'borax has been dissolved. Dry thor-

with linseed,oil.
To save coal dissolve one pound of
washing soda in a pail of water and
sprinkle it over the coal in the cellar.

LUCKNOW,. an. 6.—John Brown,
aged 26, son of Mr. and Mrs., M.
Brown, of Flint,, Mich., and fort -tier
residents of Ashfield, near Amberley
was muredred in a mysterious man-
ner on the night of December 14. He
was a valued employee in the experi-
mental 'department of the Buick Mo-
tor Company in Flint and it times of
rush would often work overtime and
not come lictine for tea.
He had not come home that eve-
ning and at ir o'clock the phone
rang. His mother answered and $0131C -
one asked if he had arrived, home yet
Mrs. Brown answered in the nega-
tive, but the person at the other end
of the wire insisted that he had, hav-
ing seen Mr. Brown's car in front of
the house.
ars. Brown went to the door and
on opening' it she found the body of
her son lying face downward ort the
step. She at once secured help, but a
doctor staled that the young man had,
been dead at least 'two hours, A gap
ing 'wound was found in the neck,
which showed signs of strangulation
and on each temple was the mark of
a blow. Without a doubt, the young
man was murdered.
The telephone call was traced. 'and
the movements of the murdered man
were traced up to the time he went
for his supper ata place he often fre-
quented. Two Men were placed under
arrest, but the results of the inquest
and investigation are not yet known.

they walked', out together. e
"The peace of God. be with you,

echoed.

The Pasha collies up to Paris every
summer to buy her silks and per-

AMBUSHED.
Larva of Dragon -Fly Devours Tiny
Tadpoles.
In a shallow tank lies an ugly,
dingy ,ereature with broad, segmented
abdomen terminating in thick but
sharp spines, and with a big unkain-
ly head bearing a couple of short
antennae and prominent eyes at the
sides, writes A. E. Hodge, F.Z.S., in
Tit -Bits. In dolor it so resembles
the sedifnent around that it is scarce-
ly discernible, It is hard to believe
that this repulsive -looking creature
will in a few ;loathe' becopie a glor-
iously-htied dragon -fly.
To lessen the chances of detection
it remains quite motionless, though
the bulging eyes are for ever on the
look -out for passing prey. To test
Ite watchfulness, I throw into the
tank a tiny tadpole. That the larva
has seen the lively black morsel can-
not be doubtedbut, as motionless ae
ever, it shows no sign.
Once or twice 'the tadpole ,passes
dangerously near the anabusher, but
the larva knows its range and with-
holds action. The, with such sud-
denness that the eye fails to follow
how it is cloae, a pair of nippers are
shot forth to almost half the length
of the owner and the tadpole is grip-
ped between the blades. One had
hitherto seen nothing of this deadly
weapon, for the device—really the
lower lip of the insect—ii hinged so
that when not in use it can be folded
away under the head. Using the nip-
pers ass hand, the larva holds the
victim aaaainst its mouth as it 'pro -
'coeds with its meal
