Household Remedies. Sufferers lrom sleeplessness should try a hot salt bath before retiring. It refreshes and often induces sleep. A linseed poultice should always be applied next to tho skin. The oil from the meal has many heal ing properties. To" clean children's teeth vze a little precipitated chalk once a day. Camphorated chalk should bo avoided, as it makes the tooth brittle. II mgtiails arc usually the re sult ot a dry condition of the skin. Soak the lingers in warm water at night and then rub in an emol lient. Soft corns are exceedingly painful. Apply a small piece of cotton wool saturated in castor oil between the toes, where the corns mostly come, and it will give speedy relief. Bruises should be bathed im mediately in hot water. This will not only ease the pain, but often save discoloration of tbe skin. In severe cases a compress- of hot oil is found to give relief. Church Services.

Birthday Surprise Party. A birthday surprise party was held at llw home of Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Hann, near Sal u via, on the evening of April 20th, in honor of the lflth birthday of the daughter Miss Edna. The routine of work progressed throughout the day without any mdication-of a sur prise being in store for any one and Edna had received presents from the immediate family . as usual. When the evening mail was received it contained a card from Rev. McGarvey and wife bearing their regrets that they could not be present to spend the evening. This wa3 the first inti mat ion of any thing unusual. In a short time some neighbors call ed to spend the evening, and about 8 o'clock there were other neighbors and friends arrived bringing plenty of good cheer which always means a pleasant time. Supper was served at 9:30. after which the company was fivored with music by Mrs. Mel ven E. Bobb and Miss Mary Mum ma. The time was spent very pleasantly until about 1 o'clock, a. m., when all left for their re spective homes, leaving MissEdna many presents as tokens of re spect and good will. Those pres ent were: Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Sipe and daughter Goldie; Mrs. Fannie Mumma and daughters Mary and Julia; Mrs. May Bair and daughter Nella, Mrs. Melvin Bobb and. daughter Scottanna, Edgar Hann, wife and daughter Viola; Ada and Lois Decker, Louie and Gertrude Kegerise, Grace 1 lann, Blanche Schooley, Eleanor Betz, Pauline Hann; Goldie, Rus sell, George and Lee Decker; Harry Kline, Charley Schooley, Thomas and Percy Deshong, Carl Hann and Clem Sipes.

In Pittsburg a savage lion fond led the hand that a child thrust into his cage. Danger to a child is sometimes great when least regarded. Often it comes through Colds, Croup, and Whooping Congh.

The one person in the secret announc es that he will first give each member of the company the name of some wild animal and that aft erward, when one of the names given is called, tbe player having it must do whatever he is told. 1 hen the names are given to each in a whisper, with the strict injunction not to reveal them un til the proper time. Instead of giving different names, however, everybody has been given the same "wildcat." " hen the leader, taking his stand at the door, says: "Now, all ready. The first animal whose name I call must get to the op posite side of the next room be fore I do or pay a forfeit." . Then, calling "Wildcat!" he rushes through tbe door, with, of course, tne wuoie company in hot pur suit, all realizing when too late that they have' been sold.
