Take what God gives, O neart of mine.
And build your house of happlnesn;
Perchance some have been given more,
But many have been given less.
The treasure lying at your feet.
Whose value you but faintly guess;
Another builder, looking on,
Would barter heaven to possess.

It Is Mercury, Quicksilver. Shocks
Liver and Attacks Your
Bones.
Be Sure Your Rubber Rings Are Good.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Many n family that is fond of straw-
berry preserves or raspberry short-
cake during the winter months finds
Itself in the fall without any of these
delicious small fruits on its canned
fruit shelves. The fruit ripens so rap-
idly that the housewife, oftentimes, is
faught unprepared—without jars, tops,
rubbers or some other canning neces-
sity—and the crop Is gone before she
can procure them.
Season Is Short.
The season of any of the small
fruits is very short, and full prepara-
tion for the canning should be made
before even the first of the fruits be-
gins to ripen.
If you are going to get a new can-
tier this year—and one certainly sim-
plifies the work—the time to get it ia
now. If a lard can or a wash boiler
is to be used for processing the cans,
see that the false bottom used last
year is In perfect condition or make I
u new one.
Wash Cans Thoroughly.
All cans and their tops should be
washed carefully as t,hey are emptied
and before they are stored. If they
we.;e not, now Is the time to put ♦hern
into Immaculate condition. Kvery par-
ticle of foreign matter inside or out-
side should he removed and the Hanged
around the top scrubbed with a brush.
Then the whole can and Its top should
he boiled In soda water. If pickles
have been in the jar, extra cure must
be taken. After bulling, the open Jar
should he placed in the sunshine out
of doors for several days. A large
part of the losses in canning Is caused
by the jars not being absolutely clean.

Many Pantry Supplies May Be Re-
plenished Before Stock Is Ex-
hausted—Making Estimates
With Other Foods.
(Prepared by the United States L>ep±rtmen:
of Agriculture.)
H&king ponder often runs short at
a crucial moment when one has a cake
half-mixed, thinking there is plenty of
it on hand. Of course, the far-sighted
housekeeper plans to replenish each
of hoi- pantry supplies before the stock
is exhausted hut she e'cnerally buys
halting powder ill small quantity so
lis to have it fresh.
A pound can of halting powder can
he bought at regular intervals if one
knows approximated bow many t' a-
spoooiifuls ii contains and liow many
ti aspoonfuls are needed for the cook-
ing during s.ny given period. The ex-
perimental kitchen of the United States
Department of Agriculture has deter-
mined, by scientific weighing and
meusuriiig, that there will he a vari-
ation between !-"> and l"iO teaspoons
in a one-pound can of baking powder.
This iy assuming an average weight
of grains for a 5 c. or standard
teaspoon.
In a home where hot biscuits are
made every morning, possibly lour
teaspoonfuls of baking powder would
lie the average amount dully tu leaven
h pint of flour; if a cake uus made
on Saturday calling for three teaspoon-
fuls of baking powder and perhaps
cookies earlier in the week, requiring
two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, a
minimum of about li.'t teaspoonfuls a
week would be required. The pov"d
can therefore should last frcrn three
to tive weeks, but if extra baking,
not counted in this estimate, is nec-
essary, it would he well to replenish
the baking powder once a month.
Similar estimates with other foods
cari he made by the Individual house-
wife. The rule that three teaspoon-
fuls make one tabJespoonful is suffi-
ciently accurate for practical pur-
poses, say specialists in home econom-
ics in the United States Department
of Agriculture. It may be Interesting
to the housewife to measure for her-
self th* number of cups of coffee she
Is likely to obtain from a pound, reck-
oning one tablespoonful per cup.
Knowing how many *cups are made
every day :-he can easily compute
the amount of coffee needed during
the week or month.
LEVER PRESS VERY HELPFUL
Pressure Needed in Making Cheese
Can Be Regulated by Use of
Pole and Pail.
For those who make their own
cheese following is described a simple
method of pressing the curd.
The lever stick should be about
twelve feet long, while the weight may
consist of a pail containing rocks of
earth. The box upon which the mold
is placed is set about three feet from
a wall, poet, or tree, on which the slat
hbw i'uu)u-miLnjiu,iraca
Pressure Is Variable at Will.
Is nailed. One end of the stick Is
piaceii under the slat, llave a board
block about half a foot square to place
or. the mold and rest the stick on this.
Do not apply full pressure at tirst.
The pressure can he regulated by
hanging the pall about halfway be-
tween the mold and the end ol* the
stick. When more pressure should
be applied ijrnw the pail to the end
of the stick.—Mrs. C. N. T. in Power
Farming.
THE HOUSEWIFE
Chocolate Almonds.
Blanch Jordan almonds, dry them
between towels, then strew over a
baking sheet and place in a medium
hot oven until delicately browned.
Whpn cold dip one at a time Into
melted chocolate. Drop them on a
eleiui baking sheet to harden.
Cleaning Hint.
TTsa one-bull cupful of kerosene oil
In a pailful of water to wash your
window sashes and sills. Waafc glaafl
Mth ammonia apd water.
Never allow sliver to stand m-
washed over night.

The best polish for brass Is a so'o-
tlon of salt and vinegar.
• • •
Salad oil added to putty prevents
it from hardening and cracking.

When cooking very sour fruits add a
very litle salt, and less sugar will be
necessary.
* • *
If you buy oranges in quantity, store
them (In their own papers, u they do
not touch.

A delicious flavor is given a roasting
ham by hasting it with a few table-
spoonfuls of grapejulce.

In dark cellarways paint the lowest
cellar step white and it Is easy to know
when the bottom Is reached.
•
When putting curtains on brass win-
dow rods put a thimble over the end of
the rod and the curtain will slip on
smoothly.
• • •
To keep small rugs lying smooth,
sew a small brass ring on each corner
of the rug and slip the ring over a tuck
in the floor.

A tablespoonful of sugar added to
the water for basting roast beef will
give a rich brown color and Improva
tiie flavor.
Those who possess an old-fashioned
Scotch kettle may count themselves
fortunate, for
there is no utensil
which cooks meat
to such perfec-
tion as a tightly
covered Iron ket-
tle with an iron
crver. Meat
cooked long and
at a slow heat, tightly covered to con-
fine all tiie flavor and juices, will taste
so delicious and different that one will
think lie is eating some rare choice
morsel.
Oxtail Kettle Roast.—Take two or
three oxtails, wash and parboil for
five minutes, wipe and roll in seasoned
flour. I'ut one-half of a can of to-
matoes in the iron kettle, lay the
floured oxtail joints In and cover the
top with finely chopped onion, turnip
and carrot. Cover tightly and put in
a slow oven and cook about four
hours. Thicken the rich juice that is
left and serve with mashed potatoes.
Lamb Haricot.—Take th"ee pounds
of the breast of lamb or mutton, cut
In squares, wipe and roll in seasoned
flour, in tiie bottom of the kettle put
a pint of dried Lima beans which
have been soaked overnight. On top
of the beans slice two small onions*
then lay the meat on top of all. Bake
three hours.
Veal Savory.—Cut the meat from a ,
veal soupbone In pieces twice the size ,
of the finger. I lace this meat on the
bottom of a well-greased Iron kettle.
Into one-half cupful of boiling water
grate one onion and one carrot. Sea-
son highly with pepper and salt and
pour over the meat. On top of this
place a bay leaf. Lay the bone over
this, sprinkle with flour and cover
tightly. Set in a slow oven for three
hours. When done remove the hone
out of which the marrow has dripped
over tiie meat. Serve with rice or
mashed potatoes.
Cut up a chicken as for frying, roll
in flour and brown and then cook in
an iron kettle until well done, ifiiding
a very little water from time to time.
Chicken cooked in this way is tender
ami delicious.
Cornish Pastry.—Take a pound of
round steak, cut in half-Inch dice, slice
two to three onions and four to six
potatoes. The amount of meat and
vegetables will depend upon the
family.

THINGS THAT HELP
Clean paint brushes which have be-
come stiff and dry by soaking them Ir
hot vinegar.
0 ... If shoes have a worn
r&L i L sole or are too thin slip
' a piece of wrapping pa-
per cut to fit the sole
into the shoe. This will
keep the feet from burn-
, | ing and blistering.
< A paste which will
stick is made by boiling
together one pint of flotir, two table-
spoonfuls of sugar and enough water
to mix smoothly. Cook three minutes.
A piece of sandpaper in tiie kitchen
is a great help. Wrap it around a
fruit jar and It can he grasped and
held much easier when opening it.
The belt of tlie sewing machine may
be tightened by dropping on It a few
drops of castor oil. Run the machine
and the belt will tighten.
Millinery wire covered with white
Is a good substitute for a small cur-
tain rod. The looped end may be run
In as a bodkin and then slipped over
a hook. The other end is twisted and
made taut over the other hook.
Cane-seated chairs which have be-
gun to sag may lie tightened by sat-
urating the cane with boiling water In
which a tablespoonful of washing
soda lias been dissolved. Use one
quart of water.
When jelly becomes sirupy nnd re-
fuses to jelly because too much sugar
has been added, add a little cider vine-
gar.
A rusty screw may be removed If
heated very hot before turning It
with the screw driver.
Patterns found In oilcloth make fine
models for patchwork quilts.
When moths get Into carpets: Use
a dump cloth all around the edges,
Ironing with a hot iron. The steam
will kill all moths and eggs.
If one lias to take disagreeable
medicine It helps to hold a piece of
Ice In the mouth a minute or two be-
fore taking. The cold dulls the sense
of taste.
If one carries a small noodle hook,
thimble nnd thread with scissors la
the apron pocket many stitches mny
be tnken In time which will save much
mending.
Calomel salivation is horrible. It
dwells the tongue, loosens tiie teeth
and starts rheumatism. There's no rea-
son why a person should take sicken-
ing, salivating calomel when a few
cents buys u large bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone—u perfect substitute for
calomel. It is a pleasant vegetable
liquid which will start your liver just
as surely us calomel, hut It doesn't
make you sick and can not salivate.
Calomel is a dangerous drug; he-
sides, it may make you feel weak, sick
and nauseated tomorrow. Don't lose a
day's work. Take a spotmful of Dod-
son's Liver Tone Instead and you will
wake up feeling great. No salts neces-
sary. Your druggist says if you don't
find Dodson's Liver Tone acts better
than treacherous calomel your money
lt> waiting for you.—Advertisement.
