, ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Gleanlineee In the' Kitchen as Impor
tant as In the Sickroom.
- Back of the pantry door hang a
long, white apron, white oversleeves
and a white cap; not the pretty,
coquettish cap worn at cooking
school, but a can of large propor
f ions,- fitted with an elastic tape.
which holds it close round the face,
says the Housekeeper. Under this
cap not a hair can escape, which
precludes any possibility of hairs in
the food when one is cooking. The
apron and sleeves cover the gown
perfectly, so that it is unnecessary
to change, one's dress when it is
time to prepare dinner. If one is
careful, it is possible to cook with'
out allowing a drop to fall and, hav
ing on a good gown, teaches one to
be careful. The apron and sleeves.
as well as the cap, are of white lin
en, a cheap quality of table linen.
They wear for years and are easily
washed, besides looking clean at all
times. At least when they are soiled
one can see it at a glance, and this
does away with any chance of cook
ing with a soiled apron. e insist
on our trained nurses wearing white
aprons in order to have everything
clean About the. Sickroom. There
will come a time when we will re
alize that it is as important to be
surgically clean m the kitchen when
people are well in order to keep
them so as it is to be thus clean in
the sickroom in order to cure them
when they are ill.
8ugarad Mint Leaves.
The sugared leaves of mint are
said to be a powerful aid to diges
tion. Select fresh, hrm leaves and
thoroughly wash m cold water, "pat
ting them dry between the folds of
a towel. Have ready a thick sirup
made by boiling a half poundof
granulated sugar witn a gin ot wa
ter without stirring. When a little
dropped in cold water is brittle, add
a tablespoonful of lemon juice. Boil
a moment longer, or until the sirup
begins to turn yellow, then set the
vessel containing it in an outer ves
sel of very hot water. Dip the leaves
quickly into the sirup, then lay on
oiled paper to dry. The leaves must
be held with slender tongs, and if
on the stem the whole spray may
be dipped at once.
The Mattar of Dusting.
Soft cloths make the best dusters.
In dusting any piece of furniture
begin at the top and dust down,
wiping carefully with' the cloth,
which can be frequently shake?.
Many people have no idea of what
dusting is to accomplish, and in
stead of wiping off and removing
the dust it is simply flirted off into
the aif and soon settles back again
on the dusted articles. If carefully
taken up on a cloth, it can be shaken
out of a window into tne open air.
It is much less work to cover up
furniture while sweeping than to be
obliged to clean the dust out after
ward.
To Mend Broken Glass.
If you happen to break a glass or
valuable glass ornament, it can be
effectually and easily mended in the
following way: Melt a little ism
glass in spirits of wine, add a small
quantity of water, and warm the
mixture gently over a moderate are,
When mixed thoroughly, melting it
will form a perfectly .transparent
glue, which will unite the' glass so
nicely and firmly that the joint will
scarcely be noticed by the most crit
ical eye. : . -' : -
Oatmeal Water.
This ia ' Sometimes ordered for
dyspeptic patients, but is most valu
able for the workman on the road
or the farmer in the field. It can be

; ; . 20 Killed in a Wreck. ,1
St Louis, July 3.- A special to the
Globe-Democrat from Litchfield, 111.,
says the Chicago limited on the Wa
bash Railroad, due in St. Louis at 7
p. m., and half an hour late, was
wrecked tonight inside the city limits.
The train struck an open swith and
was overturned and seven of the nine
cars were burned. It is believed that
20 persons perished in the second and
third coaches and that 40 were injured
The injured are being cared for in the
St. Francis Hospital in this city.
A partial list of the killed follows
St. Pierre V. Bald, Montreal, Canada;
L. O. Eschsradt, Chicago; Mrs. C.
F Luther, Milwaukee; Dan H. Davis,
Decatur; Joseph Bardock, North D
kota. James Sanford, engineer, Deca
tur, 111.; Samuel Smith, fireman, De
catur; Mrs. Perkins, Chicago; I. R,
Mills, Decatur, 111.
Startling Evidence,
Fresh testimony in great quantity is
constantly coming in, declaring Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consump
ion Coughs and Colds to be un-
equaled. A recent expression from
T. J. McFarland
serves as example.
Bentoryille, Va
He writes: "I
three years and
had Bronchitis for
doctored all the
time without being
benefited. Then I began taking Dr
King s New Discovery, and a few
bottles wholly cured me." Equally
effective in curing all Lung and
Throat troubles, Consumption, Pneu
monia and Grip. Guaranteed by
Fetzer's Drug Store. Trial bottles
free, regular sizes 50c, and $1.00.
The "man with the open counte
nance" would be more popular if he
shut it occasionally.
A Strong Heart.
Is assured by perfect ' digestion.
Indigestion swells the stomach and
puffs it up against the heart. This
causes shortness of breath, palpitation
of the heart and general weakness.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure cures indiges
tion, relieves the stomach, takes the
strain off the heart and restores it to a
full peformance of its function
naturally. Kodol increases the strength
by enabling the stomach and digestive
organs to digest, assimilate and appro-
to the blood and tissues all of the food
nutriment. Tones the stomach and
digestive organs. Sold by the Gibson
Drug Store

Such was the experince of Mrs. S. H.
Newson, Decatur, Ala. "For three

years, she writes, 1 endured insutter
erable paid from indigestion, stomach
and bowel, trouble. Death seemed
inevitable when doctors and all
remedies failed. At length I was
induced to try Electric Bitters and the
result was miraculous. I improved at
once and now I'm completely re
covered." For Liver, Kidney, Stomach

For a hundred years or more
Witch Hazel has recognized as a
superior remedy, but it remained for
E. C DeWitt & Co. of Chicago, to
discover how to combine the virtues of
Witch Hazel with' other, antiseptics,
in Tttie form of. a salve ., DeWitt's
Witch Hazel Salve is the best salve in
the world for sores cuts, burns, bruises
and piles.. The high standing of this
