f . CHURCH KINDERGARTEN; A 1'Mtor'K l*la? to lOnnble Mother* 1 ^ Attend Services. m Rev. Finis Idlcinan, pastor of tht ) Christian church in Paris, 111., and on? of the most progressive ministers In the city, recently put Into practice a plan whereby mothers may come to church on Sunday aivl bring all the children and not be caused any worry 4 through fear that during the service * the conduct of the little ones may annoy the pastor or the congregation, ays a Paris correspondent of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. He has secured tho services of Miss k Rachel E. Bremmeuan of Bloomington, 111., one of the best kindergarten teachers in the state, who, with the assist anco of a few of the women of the church, has fitted up a room in tiie rear of tho edifice, where the children are k taken during the progress of tho servf Ices and taught as they would be in a kindergarten. Miss Bremmenan ways she will make |l tier end of the work so attractive and profitable that tho children will beg to be allowed to attend the kindergarten sessions. Thus the parents of the little ones will not only have no excuse ^ for not going to church and their chilv dren's pleadings will supply an additional incentive for their attendance. The kindergarten is only for the children who are accompanied to church by their parents. I A New Plan to Stop Spit tin sr. n Chief of Police Paul Miillken of Cincinnati has adopted new tactics in the war against spltters in street cars and public places, says a Cincinnati dispatch. He directed patrolmen to hand to any one seen expectorating in A !' public place a card on which is printed; "Spitting menaces public health. "Spitting on sidewalks, in public conveyances or In public plsces is liable to communicate disease. Do not spit." The other side of the card bears * | copy of the city -ordinance.

( House Cleaning. J The good housekeeper uever tears the whole house inside out at once. Ou the contrary, she takes one lloor at a time, beginning at tho attic and descending, last of all, to the cellar. In the attic, first, the waste paper, old shoes, old garments and dilapidated household utensils must be cleared out. Everything for which no good use can be found should l>e destroyed. It is foolish to let old things that one never uses accumulate around a house. Having got everything out of the attic that can be removed sweep the cell lng thoroughly, sweep and wipe the walls, clean tho woodwork find wash the windows. The easiest and quickest way to clean window glass is as follows: Take a pall of cluan, warm water and pour into It about a tablespoon ful of kerosene, stirring the oil into the water. Have plenty of clean, soft cloths and a good sized soft chamois leather. First wash the window wltli the kerosene mixture, then dry it wltl: a cloth, polishing finally with the lenth er. This removes all lint. Wash th< floor of your attic last, then let it sur and dry, and It will he ready to have its belongings put bnclc In. Next dny tackle the bedroom. Tak< rugs, carpets, curtains, draperies anc mattresses Into the open air and beni and brush all dust out of them anc give them a good sunning. While thej are out clean the rooms as you did tlx attic. To cleanse varnished and ollec woodwork and furniture pour som< kerosene upon a soft clean rag and rul thoroughly. Tho work will be wel done, and tho odor will soon pass away This is the time to examine all bed steads and the walls to see that no vor mln are lodged therein. Here, too, th< good housekoepor will find kerosene In valuable. It will destroy vermin ant thoir eggs if libernlly applied. Carpets may be washed after thej are tacked down. Uso warm water in to which some liquid ammonia ha: been poured, a scrubbing brush an< plenty of clean dry cloths. For the third day of cleaning do tin parlor, front hall and stairs, after tha the dining room antf kitchen and iMtli the cellar. I 1L>- ? Dividing the Horses o 1 A certain merchant of Bagdad U In his last will and testament seve teen horses to bo divided among i: three sous, according to the followli proportions?namely: The flrst was receive one-half, the second one-thi and the youngest one-ninth part of tJ whole, but when they came to arran, about the division It was found that comply with the terms of the will wit out sacrificing one or more of the ai mals was impossible. Puzzled in the extreme, they repair to the cadi, who, having read the wl said that such a dillicult question i quired time for deliberation and rt ommended them to return In two da3 When they again made their appet ance the judge said: "I have considered your case and fii that I can make such a division of t seventeen horses among you as w give each more than his strict shai and yet not one of the animals f?'*\il lujured. Are you content ?" '* "Wo are, O cadi!" was the reply. "Bring forth the seventeen iiors and let them be placed In the com yord," said the cadi. The animals were brought In, ai the cadi ordered the groom to place 1 own horse with them. Ho then ba the eldest brother to count the horses "There are eighteen In number, cadi," he said. I "I will now make the division," 1 Bponded Ihooadi. "You. the eldest, a entitled to half: then take nine horsi \ou, the second son, are to receive 01 third; take, therefore, six, while to y< the youngest, belongs the ninth pari namely, two. Thus the sevente horses are divided among you; y have each more than your share, ami may now take my own steed ba ugain." "O cadi," said the brothers, "yo wisdom equals that of our Lord So man!"
