Grant, who was elected Presi

doctor-in' the people, and .lack

and fell dead," "Lincoln, who
was shot and killed standing in
a booth, and died saying, '.Jef

the Mississippi iij> lo his elbows,
and there lound his grave."
"Old (General Putnam, who left

went and beal the British."
"The redoubtfnl ".lohn Paul

Kerosene For Gleaning.
American Press.
The cleaning properties of ker
osene are not generally recogni
zed.
Nothing makes a kitchen cub
board more attractive than gleam
ing tinware.
A few drops of kerosene will
accomplish this. Soap and wat
er will remove the oil, and the
odor will soon disappear. There
is nothing like kerosene to make
the wash basin shine.
It is effective as a furniture pol
iah. Muhogany eau he freed
from that blue, smoky film b)
the use of a few drops ct oil mix
ed with a little water. Carved
furniture, which defies the dual
cloth, lo made as attractive af
new by brushing it with a soil
hairbrush dipped in kero8ene.
For removing stains and spoti
from lavatory basin and bathtul
kerosene cannot he equalled.
Table oilcloths or the linoleum
on the kitchen floor can be kep
fresher and cleaner with oil thai
with soap and water.
A few drops of oil will do mud
towards starting particles of dus
from machinery. If a clock is t<
he cleaned it can he done effec
ti vc ly by placeing in the lowe:
part a cloth saturated with kero
sene. The bits of dirt and parti
oles of dust will be loosened by tht
vapor and will drop down ant
can ho removed.
Worth Knowing,
Purify jars by soaking them it
strong soda water.
