stove in constant cleanliness besides making the oven easier to heat and also keeps the heat channel clear Then replace the covers and close the dampers and -when the sitove lias been closed as tightly as possible turn over the gnate letting the contents fall into the ashpan below Clean the grate of any clinging substance then turn it back into its place Brush out the oven after the dust Jias ceased to rise ami then it will be clean for lire and free from dust when you are ready to bake in it Remove the ashes and cinders Into the lire box you put first of all loose pieces of newspaper that have been torn into strips that is unless you happen to live where you can gt plenty of fine pine shavings and most people cant got them so they use pa per these stripsgo on the very bottom resting on the grate use plenty of pa per so that the kindling may have a chance to light before the paper is burned out Next lay small pieces of light -wood across the box leaving small spaces betwen the pieces on these put a layer of kindling a little larger than the first layer putting the sticks at right angles with the lower ones on these again place fine hard wood kindling then larger hardwood and finally a thin layer of small coal In this way you Avill have little trouble in making the fire burn Each layer as it burns heats the one above it Washing the Pace The method of washing the face daily is of great importance as even if one only washes it twice a day the opera tion has to be gone through 700 times in the course of a year and this would naturally affect it for good or evil Highly scented or highly colored soaps should be avoided and one which gives jk soft lather and does not cause any feeling of irritation is the best The soap should be well rubbed into the face with a clean piece of flannel and then bathed off in a basinful of abso lutely clean Avater so that every par ticle of soap may be removed After thoroughly bathing the face should be dried with a Turkish towel and then if the7km ue coarse and thick it may be n feed with a rough towel out il the slin is at all sensitive a very soft towel should be used and the face final ly well rubbed over with a piece of chamois leather Gentle friction of the face with soft leather or better still with the finger tips when clean tends to remove lines and to prevent the for mation of wriukles Philadelphia Times Danger in Tin Can Open a can of perches apricots cher ries or other fruit for all fruit is acidulous let it stand for some time and the fruit acids and the tin are ready to do their work of poisoning A chemical knowledge that tells just how the dangerous compound is cre ated is unnecessary to an avoidance of the peril The rule to follow is never to make lemonade or other acidulated drinks in a tin bucket nor allow them to stand in a vessel of tin and in the case of canned fruits or fish immedi ately upon opening the can turn the contents out upon an earthen ware plate or into a dish that is made of earthenware or glass Fruits in her metically sealed cans if properly pre pared generate no poison As soon as opened the action of the acid in the tin with the aid of the atmosphere begins and in a short time the result is a deadly poison Popular Science News When the Con Pones Hot Dey is times in life when nature Seems to slip a cog an go Jes a rattlin down creation

condition They contain in a condensed form all the elements neces sary to give new life and richness to the blood Birds as Insecticides Birds arc natures great check on the excess of insects and keep the balance between plants and insect life Ten thousand caterpillars it has been esti mated could destroy every blade of grass on an acre of cultivated ground In thirty days from the time it is hatched an ordinary caterpillar in creases 10000 times in bulk and the food it lives and grows on is vegetable The insect population of a single cherry tree infested with aphides was calculated by a prominent entomologist at no less than 12000000 The bird population of cultivated country dis tricts has been estimated from 700 to 1000 per square mile This is small compared with the number of insects yet as each bird consumes hundreds of insects every day the latter are pre cented from becoming the scourge they would be but for their featherod enemies Peculiarity of Stoves on Vessels Stoves and ranges used at sea have two peculiarities One is that the doors are made to turn down and not to swiug and have fastenings to hold them securely when they are shut so that they cant possibly fly open The other peculiarity is in the rack on top It is elevated four or five inches and runs around the edge of the stove to keep the pots and kettles from sliding off Some stoves and ranges used afloat are also provided with cross rods which run from the fixed rod at the back of the stove to the rod in front across the top of the pots and kettles and hold them dowu and keep them from shift itg They are used in very heavy Avqnther or when the ship is rolling For some reason these cross rods are more Usd on British than they are on American ships When a vtfsselsisin port the front railfthe fack is usually taken out and then the cook has as easy access to the top of the stove as he would have with a stove ashore New York Sun SlOO Reward 100 The readers or this paper will
