CLARIFYING BEESWAX.
W the Work Is Doit Properly a PraeV
ct ( Kim, Em Appraraac
Will II Obtained.
As it is generally clarified some
ketwa.T present a ry clear
yellow, while other wax wlien com
pared with it has a dirty look. Thii
it owing to the proper method em
ployed in one ease and lack of thor
ougnets in another, albeit not always,
for there is suvli a iiitTerenre even in
Dee wax that it is qucMionahle if some
could ever he made clear. If clarified
as it should lie, however, the chances
are nine out of ten i f its all presenting
the same tine, even apenrance, says
'.'ountry (ientleniun.
The way to do it is to take the comb
one has to clarify and put it in a large
iron kettle, such as is used on the
farm outdoors, tilling it with water.
In this t lie couth should he allowed to
boil for several hours. Meanwhile, a
tub hnv'ui! bei'n tilled half full of wa
ter, on which is floated an old board
of koine sort, the mixture ut the end of
that period should he dipped tut with
an old pan or dipper from the kettle,
and poured through a hemp sack or
other thin material that is allowed to
rest on the board tlonting in the tub.
The result is the wax runs through the
sack into the tub, leaviiigconfiderable
residue in the sack, which can readily
be separated by squeezing or rolling
the mass with a round stick or similar
means of pressure.
The w;ix will float on the surface of
the water in the tub and soon cool,
td while this is taking pla;e the ket
tf should be cleansed and filled with
clean water; then the wax should be
put back in it and boiled tip a second
time. It should next be strained care
fully through a line meshed cloth sev
eral times, and as the sack or cloth
used for t!ii purpose is of no special
value afterwards it should be thrown
away.
Beeswax clarified in this mannerean
he melted without water and put in
moulds ready for the market, which
otherw ise in iirtit have been considered
worthless and never used at all. In
deed, it pays to save all the scraps and
pieces of old comb, and at the end i f the
season treat them as described, for
thus will first-class beeswax be ob
tained, and that always finds a good
market.

Mrs. Kate K. Johnson, McClellandsville,

There are many reasons why you should
take Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills, but the best
reason is that they will give you almost instant
relief from headache or other pain. In cases
of chronic headache, when the sufferer knows
an attack is coming on, a Pain Pill will usu
ally prevent it entirely, tn cases of estreme
nervous exhaustion, when the brain is too
tired and the body too nervous to rest, an
Anti-Pain Pill will sooth the nerves so that
sleep may come. They never fail, yet con
tain no opiates and are non-laxative.
All druggists sell and guarantee Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills. They are non-laxative: con
tain no opiates, never sold in bulk, 25 doses,
