THINGS ONE SHOULD KNOW
It isn’t necessary to wait until
swisschard is very large before you
begin to use it. When the outside
leaves are a foot high begin to cut
it.
* * * *
On sweeping day make a good
6uds in a pail of warm water and
soap, add three tablespoonfuls of
kerosene oil, dip your broom in this
and shake the water off, then siweep
in the usual way. Dip the broom
frequently, for it will take up lots
of dirt. You will find that it will
brighten your carpet, and there will
be no dust to settle back on the
furniture.
* * * *
To prevent small mats from coil
ing up or slipping from their proper
places, line them carefully with car
pet, either new or old.
* * * *
If a drawer runs unevenly and
causes trouble in opening and shut
ting, it is not always necessary to
have recourse to the carpenter, for
frequently the very simple method
of rubbing a little soap on the in
ner edges of the drawer will over
come this difficulty.
* * * *
When you buy new clothespins
soak them in cold water for half an
hour before using. They will not
then split.
The psychologists tell us that the
cast and color of the mind is deter
mined in first youth. A child badly
frightened before three years of age
never gets from under the shadow
of that fear. A child permitted to
indulge fits of temper in tender
years never gets over the effects of
that indulgence. A child taught to
make amends for some wrong that
he has done goes through life anx
ious to make amends. A child taught
to be happy in spite of adverse con
2ditions for happiness, retains that
blessed ability throughout life. Some
teachers go so far as to say that the
individual is the determining event
of his whole thought life. Sensitive
plants, they are, these little ones,
that quiver at a touch that fold or
unfold as that touch is congenial or
uncongenial.

H. I. MOBLEY’S WAREHOUSE.
MARY’S VERSION OF IT
Little Mary was asked by her
teacher whether she resembled her
mother or father. “I don’t know,”
replied Mary, “but I’ll find out.”
That afternoon she told her moth
er what the teacher had asked. Said
the mother: “Tell your teacher that
you have your father’s hair and your
mother’s features.”
When the teacher asked Mary the
next day if she had found out whom
she resembled, Mary replied: “Yes,
ma’am. Mother says I have my
father’s hair and her fixtures.”
Good times are not coming. The
man who finds good times goes af
ter them. Neither will any act of a
legislative sort change radically the
nature of things. Nor is it likely
that any improvement in our meth
ods will bring about those hoped
for better days. But we will take
up a little slack here, make our plan
smaller there, plant a little more
and oftener of some neglected
things, do a little more of our own
work and see that our families help;
take fewer trips to town without
something to sell, and things will
begin looking up—ten per cent, say,
maybe twenty per cent.—The Butler
Herald.
