Household Uses For Sale Moths can be driven out of rugs or carpets with greater •speed and more certainly if salt is sprinkled over Ohe surface before sweeping, making certain, however, that all salt is removed in the cleaning. Shiimpoo the scalp weekly with dry salt, sprinkling it liberally on the hair and massaging thoroughly for 5 to 10 minutes. All salt should then be removed. This stimulates circulation, removeJs dandruff and gives the hair a natural lustre. Baths may be cleaned in â- half the usual time If dry isalt is used as a rub before washing. This also ap- plies to washstands, lavatories and polished stone or slate surfaces. If the iron seems rough and dirty, just when the clothes are all ready for ironing, sprinkle so>xne salt on a newspaper and rub the iiot iron over it- It will be like new.

Even the most casual observer as he travels along the highways may see plenty of evidence of the errors in judgment and hasty decisions on the part of drivers which are the fundamental causes of the majority of accidents. The actions and behavior of such motorists seem to indicate that the safety of themselves and others is of small consequence in comparison with the possibility of saving a few iiiinutes, or even a few seconds. The statistics of accidents also point to this lack of a proper judg- ment of values. . â-  . As an example of this, we find t.hat December â€" about the least favorable month for pedestrian travelâ€" is the second worst month from the standpoint of pedestrian accidents. Also, the non-collision type, which includes mishaps in which vehicles run off the roadway or overturn, might be expected to be most frequent during the Winter when road surface conditions and poor visibility make proper control difficult. Yet. actually, the peak in July during the past four years was 142 per cent, greater than the total for December. lug, too. if you discover clothes or sheets with iron rust or ink stains, ihc-g may be easily removed by a mixture of salt and lemon juice. There'will be no smoke nor odor when making pancakes if the griddle is rubbed with a little bag of salt instead of grease. Sometimes a broom will wear shor. ter on one side than the other. It this is the case, dip it in hot water and trim evenly. The broom will be as '.-erviceable as a new one. When flakes of soot blow onto a light felt bat, do not try to rub them off. nor wet lihe spots. Merely cov- er the spots with some dry .salt, then remove with a stiff brush. When the oveu seems to be too hot and one fears the conteulis of the casserole may cook too quickly, place a sheet of wax paper under tihe casserole cover and it will slow the process of cooking. 39 The explanation would seem to be that drivers generally will reduce their speed on roads that are obvi- ously unsafe, but cannot resist the temptation to travel at speeds be- yond reasonable control when road conditions are good. In other words, allowance is usual- ly made for obvious dangers but a clear road breeds a false sense of security which too often leads to accidents. This is especially true when chil- dren are at play. Apparently many drivers assume that tne child on the sidewalk will stay there until the car has passed. Thus, all through the Spring and Summer months ac- cidents are reported in which the driver states, "The child darted from the sidewalk into my path. I didn't have a chance to stop". In almost every case this is the truth, but what such drivers fail to realize is that the child on the sidewalk is a danger signal which must be passed with caution and reduced speed if safety is to be assured. The great increase in accidents in- volving children during tlio late Spring and Summer months, an in- crease which is to be observed in accident statistics year after year. is conclusive evidence that drivers still place too much reliance on the judgment of the child in such cir- cumstances. "Trust your own good judgment, not the ,him of a child," is an ex- cellent rule at all times and especial- ly during the sunny days of Spring and Summer when the number of children on the street is much larger than at other times. Show Slight Decline Ottawa. â€" There were 874,556 persons at work on .\pril 1, accord- ing to reports rceived from 9,066 employers by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. On March 1 the num- ber employed was 902,138. The slight curtailment as compared with last montli, the report states, 'was due to a between seasons' contrac- tion, the logging program being completed before any considerable number of workers were absorbed in the outdoor industries. Despite the fall-ng off in employ- ment on .A,pril 1, the index sliowed a gain of more than two points com- pared with April 1, 1334, when it stood at 96.4 again-st 91.3. WHEN MARK TWAIN SPOKE IN QUEBEC "In 1S81 Mark Twain visited Mon- treal and Quebec. In the former city he was given a dinner by leading citizens" writes the Winnipeg Tri- bune. Prof. Stephen Leacock, who has recently written a book, analyzing tlie huitwrists characteristics, â- who is interesting in the centenary do. ings connected with Clemens' natal celebration, now in progress, has unearilied the speech Mark made in Montreal from the fllea of a local newspaper. In dealing with 'his Quebec visit he injected a quizzical touch un- mistakably his own to the accom- paniment of irresistible laughter and loud applause. And despite the lapse of time tae picture he drew in 1S81 still holds good of the Ancient Capital, wild :;ome non-essential modifications. He said (in part): "I have seen the calaahe •which Champ lain employed when he ar. rived overland at Quebec. I have seen the horse which Jacques Car- tier rode when he discovered Mon- treal. I have used them both; I will never do it again. "Yes, I have seen all the historical places; the localities have been pointed out to me where the scen- ery Is warehoused for the season, "My sojourn has been to my moral and intellectual profit: I have behav. ed with propriety and discretion. "I have meddled nowhere except in the election. But I am used to voting, for I live in a town where, if you may judge by the local prints, tiliere :ire only two conspicuous in- dustries; committing burglaries and holding elections â€" and I like to keep my hand in, so I voted a good deal here in Quebec. "Where so many of the guests present are French, the propriety will be recognized to my making a poriion of my speech in that beautiful If. igu.ace. in order that I may be i/urtiy understood. I speak French winh timidity, and not flow- ingly â€" except when excited. When using that language I have often no- ticed that I have hardly ever been mi.staken for a Fi-enchman. except perhaps, by iinrses; never, I believe, by people. "1 had hoped that mere Blench construction â€" with English •words â€" would answer but this is not the case. I tried it at the door of a gentleman's house in Quebec, and it would not work. The maid-ser- vant asked, 'what would Mocsieur?' I said, 'Monsieur So-and-So, is he with himself?' She did not under- stand. I said, 'is it that he is still not returned of his house of merolian- dise?' She did not understand that either. I said, 'he will desolate him- s,.>lf •when he learns that his friend .\mericun was arrived, and he not with lilmspif to shake him at the hand.' •'ijihe did not oveu understand I Mat; 1 don't know why, but she didn't, and she lost her temper be- sides. Somebody in the rear called out, 'Qui est done la?' or words to that effect. She said, 'c'est un fou,' and shut ihe door on me. Perhaps •he was right; but how did she ever find that .lut? For she had never seen ni-^ l),>roro till that morment." Hearts Courageou* There's a little old lady who Uvea down the way Who has never a word of her sor- rows say. She haii buried her husband, hat children and friends. Still bravely her gay little garden she tends, .And bravely she smiles as if never a care Or the anguish of sorrows had sil- vered her hair. One morning as dov?ncast I wonder- ed along. Because some little plan of my own had gone wrong, She noticed my frown as I came to her gats And asked me my burden of trouble to state. "Oh I know how you feel," she said with a smile, "But don't bear a grudge, for it ian* worth while!" I thought of her sorrows and stood there, ashamed To think tliat my own petty troublei I'd named. She passed me a rose bud to pin ot my coat, And I couldn't say thanks for tha big lump in my throat. She patted my arm and she said to me tliere ; "Remember we all have some bur- dens to bear." Dear, brave little lady, thought I, aa 1 left. Of all who had loved you so swift- bereft. Yet smiling and cheerful and hiding your woe 'N'eath a manner so gentle that no one may know, Should I bo the last of my circle to, stay, God grant me such faith as I'v* seen yon display.
