She’s just gone on telling the truthâ€"if she tells anythingâ€"and using a fellow square, and not tattling everything she knows. And so when she talks to me once in a while about such things I know she means it. a thing is so doesn't mean much. '1' suppose I’ve had a bushel of humane gush preached at me and I don't re- member any of it. But I’ll tell you what I do remember: Miss Bates, the dressmaker, works awful hard, but she never lets Tige sit on the door- step begging to come in; she goes right away and opens the door ‘You do a lot of waiting on that cat, don't you?’ I said one day. ‘Oh, I don’t know,’ she answeredf ‘You see, I’ve led Tige to believe this is where he belongs. And he can’t open the door for himself.’ “And lots of times I’ve noticed old Uncle John Tyler walking up the big hill. ’What'd you do that for?’ I asked him one day when I caught up with him. ‘Doesn’t it make you tired and lame?’ ‘Well, Fred,’ said he, ‘I’vegot a pretty heavy load toâ€"day, and old Dan’s legs are getting old as well as mine. When we get to the top of the hill I can get on and rat, but he has to keep going clear to the Corners.’ “See what I mean?

I’d like to tell ’em it’s no use spieling to kids. They don’t listen. You’ve got to show 'em.” “Why, Fred, wha do you mean?” “Why, I mean,” explained Fred painstakingly, “that just telling a kid a thing is so doesn't mean much. '1' had just attended. “It was fine!

Lamp chimneys will not crack near- ly so soon when exposed to sudden changes of temperature if they have been toughened by the following proâ€" cess: Put a handful of salt into a kettle of cold water and immerse the new lamp globeâ€"or any other glass- wareL-in it. Bring to a boil slowly and then boil rapidly for a quarter of an hour. Remove the kettle from the fire and let the lamp globe remain in the water till cold. If the new wick is given a bath in vinegar and allowed to dry thoroughly before its long bath in oil it will reâ€" pay the favor by burning more bright- ly and refusing to smoke. To avoid greasy lamps always be sure that the wick is turned below the edge of the tube so that oil is not drawn up to make the outside of the lamp greasy. Lamps will be disagree- able to handle if they are filled too full, since the oil expands in a warm room and is liable to ooze out at the top. When lamp tops get loose melt a small piece of alum and pour it into the top, holding it firmly in place for a few minutes. A hot vinegar bath is also highly beneficial to old wicks and lamp burners. Keep an old pan for the purpose and boil both wicks and burn- ers at least once a month. Lamp wicks do not submit kindly to any cutting operation. In most cases they will retaliate by giving an un- eVen flame. Turn the wick just a bit above the tube and remove the charred portion by pinching between the thumb and first finger or shave it off with a match stick. 50/0 by over 14,000 General Stores and 16,000 Grocers MATCHES “Quite an uninteresting little man, but he was my fate, and I might have got something worse." riage and had detested him from the first. “There was nothing the matter with him," she admitted, “except that I didn’t like him.” Ultimately she managed -to escape, married a man of her own choice and was much more unhappy with him than she had been with the first. Another bride told me that as a great favor she was allowed to see her future husband, and that she has re- gretted it ever since! “The dreadful imprudence seems to have robbed life of all its romance!” she said. Yet one more confession! “I peeped through the lattice window to look at him as he walked past," said another. The Point of View of the Harem.
