WHAT WIFE SAYS “GOES.”
gut It Sometimes Is Bad for the
Painting.
When a property-owner knows 110th
iug about paint it is bail for the
property-owner, and bad for the paint
er. It would not be so if the property
owner would always hire a skilled
paiuter, and then really leave every
thing to him. But the house-owner so
often fools himself on one or the other
of these things.
The skilled painter in every eommu
uity has some of the most incompetent
competitors that ever vexed a consci
entious workman or contractor, and
the incompetents get jobs generally by
working cheap. In the next place,
when the skilled painter is hired, they
do not leave everything to him, as so
many property-owners boast they do.
They interfere most ignorantly and
most fatally. They insist sometimes
on using paint materials without in
vestigating whether they are good or
hot. Or perhaps they Insist on the
painter's hurrying the work.
I'm not going to have that painter's
mess around my house a month,” the
wife says, and what wife says goes—
at the cost of a lot of wasted painting
money.
If the painter stays away a few
days to allow the paint to thoroughly
dry the owner says: •'That, painter's
neglecting this work—guess he’s side
tracking me for Jones’ work. I won’t
stand it.”
What chance does a painterhavetodo
good work for a man who is continually
nagging at him and otherwise handi
capping him (without meaning it, of
course)? A poor job is the inevitable
result of such interference.
Poor painting costs the houseowner
money—don't forget that. It might
pay you (o get the practical paint
book, painting specifications and in

Proving His Caution.
Elder W. H. Underwood, chaplain
of the stale senate, was walking down
a street at his heme at Clay Center re
cently with a friend. Another friend,
with whom Underwood joked a good
deal, met them and said: “Elder, I
thought you were careful of the com
pany you keep.”
"I am," replied the chaplain, walking
right on. “I'm not going to stop.”—
Kansas City Journal.
What He Lacked.
It is related of a South American
general, who was extremely well
pleased with himself, that once, when
about to sally forth to a grand dance,
he surveyed himself contentedly in the
mirror, and then soliloquized thus:
‘All! Thou hast all—bravery,
wealth, position, good looks. Ah, what
dost thou lack?”
Whereupon his orderly, who. un
known to the general, wras close at
hand, remarked:
"Sense, general, sense!” ,
The Trouble.
A maidservant in the employ of a
Brooklyn woman was left the other
day in charge of the children while
her mistress went for a long drive.
"Well. Mary,” asked the lady, on her
return, "how did the children behave
during my absence? Nicely, i hope.”
“Nicely, ma’am,” Mary answered,
“but at the end they fought terribly
together.”
"Fight! Mercy me! why did they
fight ?"
"To decide,” said Mary, “which wras
behaving the best."—Harper’s Weekly.
DIDN’T REALIZE
How Injurious Coffee Really Was.
-Many persons go on drinking coffee
.'ear after year without realizing that
•t is the cause of many obscure but
persistent ailments.
I he drug—caffeine—in coffee and
tea> is very like uric acid and is often
>he cause of rheumatic attacks which,
when coffee is used habitually, become
chronic.
A Washington lady said, recently:
I am sixty-five and have had a good
deal of experience with coffee. I con
sider it very injurious and the cause
°t many diseases. I am sure it causes
decay of teeth in children.
'When 1 drank coffee I had sick
Sl’clls and still did not realize that
coffee could be so harihful, till about
a year ago 1 had rheumatism in my
ai ms and lingers, got so nervous I
could not sleep, and was all run down.
At last, after finding that medicines
d‘d me no good, 1 decided to quit cof
■ entirely and try Posturn. After

THESE RECIPES.
Oyster Griil Is a New Way to Serve
the Delicious Bivalve—Shredded
Ham With Currant
Jelly Sauce.
Oyster Grill—One pint oysters, but
ter, salt, pepper to taste. Wash, pick
over ana dram
oysters. Put in
chafing dish and
cook until plump,
removing the lin
uor as it iiows fro mthe oysters.. Sea
son with butter, salt and pepper and
serve at once with small crackers.
Plain Rabbit—One-half pound cheese
cut fine, 2 tablespoons butter, !4 tea
spoon salt, few grains cayenne, V2 cup
thin cream, 2. egg yolks. 12 crackers.
Melt the butter, add the cheese, salt
and cayenne. When ihe cheese is
nearly melted add gradually the cream
and the egg yolks slightly beaten.
Pour over the crackers.
Shredded Ham with Currant .Jelly
Sauce — One-half tablespoon butter,
one-third cup currant jelly, few grains
cayenne, % cup sherry, 1 cup cooked
ham. cut in small strips. Put butter
and currant jelly into chafing dish. As
soon as melted, add cayenne, sherry
and ham. Simmer five minutes.
Hggs a la Caracas—Two ounces
smoked dried beef, 1 cup tomatoes, !i
cup grated cheese, few drops onion
juice, few grains cinnamon, few grains
cayenne, 2 tablespoons butter. ;; eggs
well beaten. Pick over beef and chop
fine, add tomatoes, cheese, onion juice,
cinnamon and cayenne. Melt butter,
add mixture and when heated add
eggs. Cook until eggs are of creamy
consistency, stirring and scraping
from bottom of pan.
Eggs in the Chafing Dish—Savory
Eggs—This is one of the dishes a be
ginner can learn to make easily, says
Harper's Bazar. Boil hard six eggs;
peel them and chop the whites; put
the yolks through the ricer. Put a
tablespoonful of butter in the hot chaf
ing dish and add a cup of cream sauce,
made in advance (for this, rub smooth
a tablespoonful of melted butter with
as much flour and add a cup of thin
cream and half a teaspoonful of salt I.
When the two are nearly boiling put
in half the egg whites, the yolks, three
tablespoonfuls cooked ham minced fine,
a half teaspoonful of minced onion or
four drops of juice, and a dozen olives,
cut up into large pieces. Have ready
six pieces of hot buttered toast, and
when the whole is hot and smooth
pour it on the toast; sprinkle with the
rest of the whites; shake a little pap
rika from a pepper shaker here and
there over the dish. This goes well
with cold meats.
Bean Croquettes.
Mash one pint of baked beans, sea
son with salt and pepper to taste and
work into the beans a well beaten
egg and two tablespoons of cream;
form into croquettes; roll in beaten
egg, then in crumbs and fry in deep
fat to a golden brown; serve with a
tomato sauce made by boiling one
half can of tomatoe^ and two slices of
onion.four cloves and one tablespoon of
table sauce for one-half hour; pass
through a sieve and add one level
tablespoon of flour creamed with one
rounding tablespoon of butter; let it
boil up, pour over croquettes, and
serve hot.
Sweet Pickled Citron.
Seven pounds of fruit, two pounds
of sugar, one quart of vinegar, one
tablespoon of whole cloves, the same
of allspice and a stick of cinnamon.
Boil the fruit in two quarts of water
and a small piece of alum until soft.
Pour off the water, boil the vinegar,
sugar and spices together for 20 min
utes, drop the fruit in and let it heat.
Scald one quart of pickled limes and
pour off the first water, then cook
them till soft. Cut them in small
pieces and add to the vinegar with the
citron.
Reserve Pie Crust.
Instead of mixing pie crust each
time a pie is baked, it will be found
much easier, and quite as satisfactory,
to prepare a quantity of flour, salt and
lard in the usual way and set aside
in a covered dish to be mixed with
water and rolled out as required. Two
pounds of flour and one pound of lard,
with salt to taste, is an excellent rule.
Moisten only the quantity required
for each baking. It will keep sweet
for weeks if kept in a cold place. A
freezing temperature will not hurt it.
Orange Cream Pie.
Beat thoroughly the* yolks of two
eggs with one-half cup of sugar; add
two heaping tablespoons cornstarch or
flour dissolved in a little milk. Pour
into one pint boiling milk and cook
three minutes. Cool and flavor with
one teaspoon of orange extract and
pour into a baked crust. Beat the
whites, put on the top and brown in
oven. This is nice when oranges are
out of season.
Simple Cream Whip.
Whip one pint of very thick cream
to a solid froth. Cut into it very
carefully three tablespoonfuls of apri
cot or other marmalade; spread it in
layers in a glass dish with macaroons
dipped in fruit juice or sirup between
each layer. Garnish wth a few bits of
candied or preserved fruit and serve
at once.
Wash Brushes.
Household brushes last much longer
if washed regularly. Remember that
they should never be allowed to rest
or the bristles.

CUTICURA CURED HIM.
Eczema Came on Legs and Ankles—
Could Not Wear Shoes Because
Of Bad Scaling and Itching.
‘‘I have been successfully cured of
dry eczema. T was inspecting the re
moval of noxious weeds from the edge
of a river and was constantly in the
dust from the weeds. At night I
cleansed my limbs but felt a prickly
sensation. I paid no attention to it
for two years but I noticed a scum
on my legs like fish scales. I did not
attend to it until it came to be too
itchy and sore and began getting two
running sores. My ankles were all
sore and scabby and I could not wear
shoes. I had to use carpet and felt
slippers for weeks. I got a cake of
the Cuticura Soap and some Cutieura
Ointment. In less than ten days I
could put on my hoots and in less than
three weeks 1 was free from the con
founded itching. Capt. George P. Bliss,
