THE CLAYTON TRIBUNE, CLAYTON, GEORGIA
NEED FOR CARE IN SWEEPING
Effective Removal of Duet Without
Unpleaaant Results Requires Care
In Operation.
Sweeping should be a process of
complete and careful removal of dirt,
its purpose being to geatber the coarse
dirt with the attached dust, and Its
aim to scatter aB little of this dust as
possible Into the air, In order to pre
vent a transfer of dirt from one place
to another. In order to sweep carpets
and rugs effectively a somewhat In
flexible, stiff broom Is best, because
tt reaches Into the depressions and
among the fibers to dislodge the dirt,
Bays Mother's Magazine. If the broom
Is too dry it will snap and throw-off
a great deal of dust, consequently It Is
always best to have the broom a little
damp so that It will hold the dirt
down and keep it all together.
The raising of duBt Is always more
or less of a problem. But with short,
light, wiping, overlapping movemeats,
and then by the stopping of the broom
on the floor instead of In the air, most
of the Inertia of the rising dust cur
rent may be overcome. In removing
the gathered dirt from the floor to the
dustpan, which Is another occasion for
dust to find Its way back to the car
pet, If a newspaper dampened can be
fitted over the dustpan and made to
stand up as far as possible at the back
and sides a surprising amount of fly
ing dust will be collected In this way.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS OF VALUE
Best Method of 8weetenlng Jars or
Tins—How to Ascertain If
Coffee Is Pure.
To sweeten Jars and tins which have
contained tobacco, onions or anything
else of strong odor, wash the article
clean, then fill It with fresh earth,
cover It and let it stand Tor 21 hours.
Then wash it and dry It and it will
be quite sweet and fit for use.
-If you wish to know whether your
cofTee Is pure sprinkle a small quan
tity on the surface of a tumbler of
water. Pure coffee floats; the adulter
ated article sinks to the bottom and
discolors the water. This is a sim
ple but effective test.
To remove fruit stains from table
cloths, cover with powdered starch
and leave this in the stain for a few
hours. All the discoloration will then
bo absorbed by the starch.
In cases of Illness where ice Is not
procurable for cooling the head of
feverish patients, cut a strip of cucum
ber, peel rather thick and lay the In
ner part on the forehead. It Is deli
ciously cool and remains so for a long
time.
Grape Jam.
Wash Concord grapes and press the
pulp from the skins into a saucepan.
Put the skins Into another saucepan.
Boll the pulps until the seeds come
out. Strain out the seeds, rubbing
the pulp through the strainer. To each
cupful of combined skins and strained
pulp add one cupful of sugar. Put it
on a moderate fire and let it come to
a boil. Keep it barely simmering for
fifteen minutes, then put it into Jelly
glasses or jam pots. When cold seal
it with melted paraffin.
Quick Graham Bread.
Two cupfuls of graham flour, one
cupful of white flour, one-half tea
spoonful salt, sift together. Add two
large tablesponfuls of molasses and
about two cupfuls of sour milk In
which one teaspoon ful of soda has
been dissolved. Mix to .rather stlfT
batter, turn Into greased bread pan
and bake at once for one hour In slow
oven.
Beet and Bermuda Onion Salad.
Cut into slices and then Into strips
two boots, slice a medium-sized onion,
quarter and separate the sections. Add
as much celery as you have onion, one-
half teaspoon of capers or chopped
pickles, Balt and white pepper. Mix
and serve with your favorite dressing.
French Dressing.
Pour Into a Bmall bowl one tea-
spoonful Balt, one-eighth teaspoonful
pepper, one tea'spoonful Worcester
shire sauce, if desired; one-third cup
ful oil and two tablespoonfuls of vine
gar. Beat well with an eggbeater and
pour immediately over the salad.
Thoughtful.
"Whenever I finish reading one of
my poems,” said the poet, "I always
leave the platform,on tiptoe.” "How
thoughtful!" remarked his friend. “To
avoid waking the audience, I suppose."
Grapefruit Salad.
Peel separately the sections of
grape fruit, remove the seeds and
skin, blanch Malaga grapes by throw
ing into hot water for two minutes, cut
in two. remove seeds, mix with grape
fruit and serve with mayonnaise dress
ing. Garnish with lettuce and celery
Keeping Pickles In Glass.
Pickles should always be kept in
glass—never in glazed ware, as the
action of the vinegnr on the glazing
is liable to form a poisonous com
pound.
WOULD ALMOST
FALLASLEEP
During Ordinary Conversation,
and Became Breathless After
First Few Words.
WesthoiT, Texas.—Mrs. Evle L.
Powell, of this town, authorizes the
following for publication; "I had ter
ribly nervous, trembling, and smoth
ering spells, and became so weak, I
could hardly get around. Would al
most fall asleep during a common con
versation, and became breathless after
the first dozen words.
I thought I had lung trouble, but
found It was all caused from womanly
weakness.
I then commenced using Cardul, the
woman’s tonic, and the first bottle
gave me relief. Am now feeling fine,
and Just as wide awake, and as lively
as anyone.
I know I would have been a wreck
had It not been for Cardul, and I do
not think enough can be said In favor
of this great woman’s medicine. I
gained more strength from one bottle
than anything else I ever tried. I rec
ommend it to all women or girls who
are without the glow of health on
their cheeks.”
These nervous, trembly, smothering
spells, which Mrs. Powell describes,
are very common symptoms of wom
anly trouble, and should be given the
proper treatment to prevent a general
breakdown.
For over fifty years, Cardul, the
woman’s tonic, has been building up
weak, nervous women to strength and’
health. It will do the same for you, if
given a fair trial.
Get a bottle of Cardul today.

A darky named Dick was known as
a notorious thief, so much so, In fact
that all the thefts in the nighbor-
hood were charged to him. Finally
one man had all his turkeys stolen
and he had Dick arrested.
"You stole Mr. King's turkeys?"
asked the judge.
"Well," said Dick slowly, "I’ll tell
you, sir, I didn’t steal dem turkeys,
but last night I went 'cross Mr. King’s
pasturo nnd saw one of my rails on
de fence, so I jes’ brought It home,

JUDGE COULDN’T SEE JOKE
Prison Sentence Followed Atrocious
Pun Perpetrated by Prisoner
In Dock.
“You are charged,” said the Justice,
'as a suspected person carrying fire
arms.” s
‘Well, your honor—I mean, your
worship—that Is, your lord,” stuttered
the defendant, “It’s a mistake. It
wasn’t an offense; It was all a Joke—
and a good one.”
"Explain yourself!” said the justice,
gazing at him solemnly.
“Well, sir, It’s all a rather elaborate
preparation for an excellent pun I am
in the habit of perpetrating on occa
sion. It takes a long time to explain,
but It’s very funny.”
“Go on I” said the J. P., sternly.
“Well, sir; first you get a pair of
old pistols and put them In your pock
et. You see? Then you get the com
pany to speak about balloonB. It’s
rather difficult sometlmee; but you can
lead up to It by calling the last speak

“Get onl” roared the juetice.
“Then you say your life was once
saved by parachutes.”
"Well?”
The corners of the J. P.’s mouth
Were now twitching with anger.
"Thon, when they say ‘Nonsense!’
you draw out the pistols.”
"What!”
“Pair-o-shoots! See?” screamed the
defendant, In convulsions.

And the Basis of Her Health and
Vigor Lies in the Careful Reg
ulation of the Botvels.
If woman’s beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a
picture of loveliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. It lies in health. In
the majority of cases the basis of
health, and the cause of sickness, can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they eat Indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
