To Bang Skirt*.â€" Tack a piece of double ticking six inches wide along under the cloKot shelf and pin the •kirts to this with hatpioK. The •kirt band doubled twice pins cns- Uy with a meditmi hatpin. These â- hould be bought by the dozen and kept handy. To Thread Needleâ€" To thread a needlo easily, cut the thread on the bias with a, scissurs. This does away with the aggravating small fuzzy strand which you havo to contend with when the threads is broken or bitten off. This also holds good with darning cotton and tape. Silk Hint.â€" When grease is cpill- en on eilk, while fresh sprinkle or- dinarj- talcum powder on the spots and rub gently with a soft piece of linen. The powder will absorb the grea<e and leave abr-olutely no mark. Underwear Help. â€" If when under- wear is bought, a piece of narrow cotton tape is utilched up the shoul- der seam, across tlie back of the neck and down the other shoulder seain, the sletTes are held in their proper place and kept the right length. This also naakcs the gar- ment wear much longer, as worn places comes first where there is the most strain. Hetnruiopf Gored Skirt. â€" When turning a hem of a gored skirt, turn the iirbt- hcui and run by hand with a Eingle thread. Then turn the Jicm up the desired depth and draw the thread to make it fit. Instead of having iilaits laid in the hem, which leaves points at the lower edge of the skirt, you will have the small gathers which insure a bmooth lying hem and a perfectly even skirt at the bottom. Kitchen Aprons. â€" Make a five inch square of several thicknesses of cheesecloth or unbleached mus- lin, as both launder well. Stitch t,n edge and several times across center. Take a long piece of tape one.^ffd of which is sewed to a cor- 'ncr of squaro. Make a buttonhole or loop in the other end of tape. At- tach to button on apron at waist line. The advantage of this lifter is that it always is ready for use and protects the handi. Mendiog Kn'.t Underwear. â€" An easy way to mend holes in knit un- derwear and stockings is to cut away thp weak part from edge and insert |U.eces size of hole, using (JTrrstitch in sewing.

Stir the ingredients together and set the dish into a kettle of beiliag water and let it re:;iain until coiiBistency of custard, stirring all the time. Cranberry Pie.â€" Line a pie plate with plain paste and fill with stem- med sweetened cranberries; scatter sugar over the cranberries and cover with strips of paste placed across in two directions to form dia- monds. Pumpkin Picâ€" To one and one- half cupfuls of sifted pumpkin add two cupfuls of hot milk, two eggs, and even tablcsi>conful of ginger, a teaspoonful of cinnamon, a table- spoonful of brandy, and a little salt ; sv.-(cten to taste. Line a deep plate with plain paste and fill with the stirred mi.xture. Bake one hour. Mince Pi('.â€" Two cupfuls of pre- pared minco moat, a tablespoonful of brandy or cider, one peeled and Hliccd appld. Line a plate with plain paste, cover bottom with tablespoonful of flour and half eup- fii'; of sugar; fill in the mince meat and cover with strips of pie crust placed across in two directions to form diamonds. or two minutes. Take up with per- forated spoon, drain, and serve at ODce. ICINGS. Cocoanut Icing. â€" Make the plain icing, spread on cake, then sprinkle with grated cocoanut. Chocolate Icing. â€" Mix two large spoonfuls of grated chocolate with two cupfuls of powdered sugar, then proceed as for plain icing. Nut Icing.- Make the plain icing, then add as much ground cloves as will lie on the j>oint of a penknife ; mix well ; then stir in one cupful of nuts, chopped fine. Plain Icing. â€" In a shallow dish put two cupfuls of powdered sugar; with a fork form a hollow in the center of the sugar ; then pour in one teaspoonful of sweet milk. With thi fork mix the sugar with the milk, adding more milk as it is needed, until the icing is stiff enough to spread over the cake with a knife wet with milk.

Salt P'islt. â€" Soak salt fish in salt water instead of fresh and the ran- cid, strong taste usually so diflicult to remove, will be entirely gone, and the fish will be more palatable than when soaked in fresh water. Shelling Nuts.â€" To remove pecan meats whole, pour boiling water CTcr the nuts and let them stand until cold. Then stand the nut on end a-,id crack with a hammer, strinking the small end of the nut. Two Kinds of Flour. - - Always keep two kinds of flour, using hard wheat for bread and spring wheat for all kinds of pastry.

Prune Pie. Make an ordinary pie crust, line tin, and bake. Then make a filling as follows: One cup- ful of bugar, yolks of two eggs, two tsblespoonfuls of flour, one tca- siioonfiil vanilla, one tcacupful uf i<i)ki'd, mahhcd prunes, one tea- cupful ol water, and butter about thi- xi/.e of a walnut.

Frying Doughnuts.â€" When fry- ing daiighnuts have a pan of boil- ing hot water standing upon the range and as cath doughnut is taken out of the fat dip it ijito thn hot water very quickly, and obscrvo the quantity of fat washed off from them in this way. The grease does not allow the water to penetrate in- to the doughnut and the heat of the cake evaporates the water almost instantly. After the frying is done allow the water to become cold and take from it the lard which has be- come hard. This is a great econo- my of lard, and in taking the su- perfluous fat from the doughnuts you render them easier of diges- tion. EGGS.

Frj'ing Eggs.â€"EgKS fried in a small quantity p{ lard or butter are difStniH to digest; the whites gen- erally tough or unpleasantly crisp- ed. When cooked in the following manner are tender and delicious. For five eggs take three rounded tablespoonfuls of lard and place in skillet. An iron one is best. When very hot slide in the eggs and cover with a dose fitting plate and re- move from fire for five minutes. This cooks them without burning. Then uncover, and if not set enough fur your taste place over fire for one his youngest son and to good little boys." A chimney-sweep for the last 5S years, the alderman was a young man of < ightt en when "The Water Eversley home of Charles Kingsley, is only si.t miles from Wckiiighani, and Mr. Sea- ward alwavs swept the rectory chimneys. He met "the canon" only once, and ho states that the I story of his early sufferings was told I to Kingsley by a lady who had taken I an interest in the boy sweep. "I was only six years old when I , went up my first chimney," said Mr. Seaward. "I was an orj)han and I fell into the hands of a chira- noy-Ewecp, nud a cruel master he was. I have known what it was to have straw lighted under me and pins stuck into the soles of my feet t) force me up the chimney, and I have known, too, what it was to come down covered with blood and boot after climbing with my knees and elbows. "No one knows the terrible cruelty inflicted on boys in those days. They used to bo steeped in strong brine to harden their flesh. 1m my own case soda was used. Sometimes I used to have to st.iy up a difficult chimney five or six hours at a stretch." SNOWING PAUPERS. Weeded From Dormitories at Step- ney Workhouse.

Golden Text. Matt. 4. 16. Verse 12. John was delivered up â€" ^The arrest af John was due to the hatred of Berodias, because he had rebuked Herod Antipas for making her his wife, contrary to Jewish law. Galilee â€" A part of the Eoraan em- pire, and reflecting the Iloman in- fluences everywhere. Mcrod Anti- pas was the ruler, having his ca- pital in Tiberias. But Jewish ideas prevailed in the government of the land. The population was very large, and the people were broadly intelligent. For an account of the history, extent, etc., of Galilee, consult Basting's Dictionary, "Ch ist and Gospels." 13. Nazareth â€" It is apparent, from John's account, that Jesus did not immediately detach himself from the home life at Nazareth. He attended the marriage at Cana in company with hia mother, an J must have lived in privacy long enough after his return from Judca for the first disciples to return to their occup.itions. Nazareth was a city of cunsidcrable importance, about five miles from Cana. Capernaum- His reason for leav- ing Nazareth was the hostility of his old neighbors (Luke 4). On his way to Capernaum he stopped at Cana, and there received the re- quest of the nobleman to heal his ^^^ WORN-OUT FARM dying child (John 4. 46). Cana lay in the hrlls, and Jesus descended A long abandoned farm is not so twenty miles to the shores of the difficult to restore to fertility as sea of Galilee, and took up an {one that has been worn out by suc- abode in Capernaum.

It was, at any rate, lovely for situ- ation, and most prosperous. This was due to its thriving fishing in- dustry, the rare fertility of its soil, and its close proximity to the great highway which connected Damas- cus with the Levant. Nowhere else could Jesus have found such an op- portunity to exercise a command- ing influence. "Speaking in Ca- pernaum, he spoke to the world." The sea itself was of great beauty and was surrounded with busy towns. It was thirteen miles long and eight miles in width. It lay within the tribe of Naphtali, but the borders of Zebulun were near.

A general sketch of the Galilean ministry, exhibiting Jesus in the threefold work of teaching, preaching, and healing. After this brief review Matthew gives at length the Sermon on the Mount, and then returns to events at Ca- pernaum. 23. Their synagoguesâ€" At this period there were synagogues in every town and in every village containing ten men. They were used not only for wrorship but also s^ centers of local government, and on week-days, as schools for chil- dren. The elders of the synagogues were tho rulers of the community. 24.

Unless a man is specially adapter by nature to handle horses, hr should rai.se only the draft breeda and sell them unhandled. When corn alone is fed to a horsa it often produces stomach indiges-i tion and bloating, which in the' horse is a very serious form of indi- gestion or colic. Good, strong wool fiber is only, grown on well-nurtured, thriftyi sheep. If allowed to run down in' condition at any time there will be a corresponding check in the growth of wool and a weaknesspro- ducod in the fibsr. In a test at the Utah station they found that it required 147 days to make 100 pounds of live weight on hogs fed skim milk alone, 116 day* fo' those fed grain alone and 79 days for those that had both milk and grain. It required 3.19 pounds of digestible m.atter to make a' pound of gain on milk alone. 2.85 pounds on grain alone and 2.53 pounds on the two mixed The milk in this case took the piece of 23.2' pounds 1:1 grain for 100 pounds of- Bkiin milk.

It is not such a difiScult matter to restore a run down or worn-out farm as some people imagine. It simply requires a little practical and scientific knowledge put into operation by a man v;ho is not easily discouraged. Many a poor man has made his mark in farming on just such worn-out farms. It is possibly to-day for a farmer to take a worn-out farm and build it Israel, which had suffered greatly j uo to a paying basis, supporting from the inroads of Assyrians andjhimsely meanwhile.

Owing tj the comjilaints of certain inmates made to the Ladies' Visiting Com- mittee that some of their fellows snored in such a way as to disturb the wh jle dormitories, it has been decided that the sneirers shall be weeded out and made to sleep with deaf paupers. An official of the institution explained recently how the snorers are traced : "If," he said, "an inmate com- plains that he cannot get his proper rest because of tho snores of anoth- er, questions are asked of other in- mates in that particular ward, and the night attendants may be asked to keep an ear open. Should it be found that tho snorer is no mere hard breather, but a stalwart per- former, he is moved to a ward where wc have one or two deaf people. "The men are the worst snorers; we have no complaint about the women. Certainly some of the old men are very noisy in their sleep, but we should not think of moving a snorer on the uneonfirmed com- plaint of a single individual." But the really remarkable part about the new schcrao is tbii: though detailed evidence has been gathered about tho nocturnal noises made by some inmates, each eon- ^•icted snorer declares that tlirro is some terrible mistake- since he was a baby in the cradle he has nev- er been known to snore. « lites sat in the darkness of despair, some green stuff.

It cannot be shown that any of tho apostles were poor men.

As David was taken from the shcepcote to bo t shepherd to Israel, and Paul from his tent- making to be a maker of heavenly tabernacles, so they were taken from their boats to be fishers of men." 20-22. This account by Matthew must be taken together with the passage in Luke 5. 1-11. What oc- curred, apparently, is this : while they were still wondering at the wonderful catch of fishes Jesus ad- dressed the words to Peter, "From henceforth thou shalt catch men." Upon their reaching shore Jesus said to Simon and Andrew, "Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of meu." Tliey obey eel straightway.

Too little attention is given to this on most old farms, especial- ly where the .soil is a tough elay. Plowing is one of the best meth- ods of restoring the lost fertility of the soil. It works well whether the soil has too little plant foeitl in it, or when it is over crowded with humus. It enables the soil to di- gest tho food, releases much that is imprisoned in it and stores up nitrogen from tho air. Not only fall and sprin.i; plowing, but sum- mer plowing too, is required on some farms that have been allowed to run down. Such work will often take the place of fertilizers and barnyard manure, although all of the latter that one possibly can se- cure should be mixed up with the soil at every plowing. -~ ♦• 'The girl I left behind me.
