Obeyiiig Orders Literally.

Who’s dak?’ The answer was, ‘Offi
cer of the day.’ Again the sentry
sung out: ‘Halt, dar! Who’s dat?’
The officer then asked him what in

1 A Household Necessity.
A family medicine chest is one of
the necessities in the household, and
every housewife should understand
how to use its contents. There
should be a place for keeping all the
bottles and packages together, al
though it he nothing better than
HE HASTILY DODGED BEHIND A TREE.
Pe sargint done tole me to halt you
three times and den shoot yoW
And, with that he cocked his rifle*
Thereupon the. officer hastily dodg
ed behind a tree, from which retreat
he succeeded with difficulty in per
suading the recruit not to shoot."
Any Cord Would Do.
General B&llington Booth of the
Volunteers of America told a story
at the meeting of his organization
of a prayer meeting held on the
east side during a mayoralty cam
paign, says the New York Commer
cial Advertiser, in the midst of a
prayer, he related, one pious brother
though it he nothing better than an
upper shelf in the closet or pantry.
Then they can be found without
loss of time, which is not the case
where the bottles are left scattered
about on the windows and mantels>
The home medicine chest should
contain a bottle of camphor, some
-good liniment, a few doses of qui
nine in capsules,.; sweet oil, castor
oil, paregoric, flaxseed, mustard, sul
phur, vaseline, limewater and vari
ous other things that have been tried
and found good.
Should any member of the family
be severely burned cover the burned
portion with linseed oil and lime-
water; then wrap it with cotton
wool. Allow it to remain twenty-
four hours.
Curtains and Draperies*
Few things give so great an air of
comfort to a home as pretty cur-*
tains and draperies, and they are
useful for many purposes. Besides
their decorative aspect, they shut
out draft and exclude dust. The
curtains, for instance, used in lieu*
of a door to the homemade ward-
Tobe protect the dresses within from
soil, while giving charm to the ap
pearance of the bedroom.
There are many women whose first
task when house moving is to ar
range the window draperies, because,
as they say, when once those are
completed the house will begin to
look like home, whereas the finished
room devoid of blinds and curtains
looks bare and cold. \
The fashionable m&teriU3£ f?r
heavy curtains are plushes and
plushettes, serges, tapestries and
brocades for the sitting room, while
for the bedroom art linen is prefer
red or fancy cretonne.
Front Door Mirrors.
Recently in passing through, pos
sibly the prettiest village, in the
Gots wolds I saw an excellent idea
that might with advantage be intro
duced elsewhere. Withm the knock
er on the front door, which in this
instance was about on a level with
the face of the visitor, was placed a
.small convex mirror. Supposing
Hie visitor is paying a call of either
congratulation or condolence, how
advantageous must it be to put the
right expression on his countenance,
-either festive or doleful, before he
