In kitchens without running water it is sometimes a problem to dispose of dishwater after every meal, with- out having to carry several heavy [dishpanfuls out to some outdoor drain. A woman who was anxious to make her kitchen more convenient, solved the question by getting her hus- band to make her a movable drain- board with a hinged support at the lower end. This drainboard had a band about two inches high running ’around three sides to prevent water 1from being spilled about the kitchen. It hung by a large hook on the kit- chen wall when not in use. When it was time to do the dishes this house- keeper set up the drainboard with one end on the table, the other end resting on the hinged leg, the whole sloping toward a tall tin coffee drum' which received the water. When the dishwashing was over, the water was removed in, one trip out of the kitchen, instead of the numerous journeys for- merly required, and the drainboard was hung on the wall again. |thin flannel apron thL same size. Then lay in the centre, after the two form- ‘er materials are gathered, a large- -sized Chamois. The latter is fastened to a tape belt of its own, then tacked to the apron belt, from which it is [easily detached when it must be wash. ,ed and dried. In holding the silver [pieces on. the lap the flannel is soft and does not scratch, and any mois- -ture is not likely to go through, and Ithe Chamois polisher is right at hand. r___v- Fudge and tea aprons are made of linen embroidered in any way liked, but if giving a tea the hostess will wear little silk or crepe de chine aprons or little butterfly things of lace and cambric.

What to Do When Nuralng a Case of Pneumonia. 1 The patient should have a separate: room; if possible see that it has a sunny aspect. Remove unnecessary; In Canada, January, February and March are active months for the dis- ease known to doctors as “pneu- monia.” As far as the layman, that is, one who Is not scientifically trained to understand the disease in all its as‘ pects, is concerned, the first duty should be to acquire sufficient know- ledge to enable him to do all he can to prevent himself from catching thel disease. In this one only needs to re- member the epigmmmatic saying of the great Pasteur, “Disease springs from disease." For those whose posi-‘ tion and duty require them to come in contact with people suffering from disease the greatest precaution should be taken. But if, after all precautions have been taken and some member all“ the family has been so unfortunate as to contract pneumonia. then a know. ledge of how to care for the patient will be found of great value. The fol- towing n‘otee upon this subject are re- commended to our readers: Pneumonia is an infectious disease â€"It is caught from another person who has the disease. Next to money the hardest thing to keep is a secret. You can get Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills through any dealer in medcne, or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine 00., Brockville, Ontario. rr'llWH-lhk| Chores. or as it is more generally known. St. Vitus dance, is a trouble that usually attacks Young children, though older people may be afflicted with it. Its most common symptoms are a twitching of the muscles of the face and limbs. As the disease pro- gresses the twitching takes the form of spasms in which the jerking mo- tion may be confined to the head, or all the limbs may be affected. Fre- : quently the patient is unable to hold anything in the hands or to walk steadily. ln_severe cases the speech is often affected. The disease is due: to debility of the nerves and relief; comes through an enriched blood sup-l ply, which feeds and strengthens the; nerves. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have; been most successful in reaching this; trouble through their specific action on the blood, which it enriches andl purifies. The following instance will show what Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills can do in this trouble. Mrs. S. Makins, Parry Harbor, Ont., says:-â€"} “As a young girl I was badly stricken! with St. Vitus dance. My parents tried i several medicines but without avail. I was steadily growing worse and could scarcely walk without falling. i] had to quit school and had no control of my nerves or actions. Finally a neighbor advised the use of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and the use of these for a couple of months restored me, and I have had no attack of the tron- ble since. i have, however, taken the pills at different times since, when I felt out of sorts, and find them all you claim for them if given a fair trial."

Ast .~¢-v u u “A marble tablet was discovered in- scribed in Sumerian which records that this was the temple of the God- dess Ninkhurag, built in her honor by the King of Ur, Aanipad'da, son of King Mesonnipadda. The latter is known to us, from king lists drawn up about 2,000 years before Christ, as a ruler of the first dynasty of Ur. “Such finds would have been, In- deed, noteworthy to whatever period they belonged, but these are the more surprising, In that they are the oldest works of art In metal yet known.
