CLOGGING THE PIPES
ASEtiSlBLE SERMON OK HOUSEHOLD
SANITATION.
Borne Suggestions Aboat tbe Plnmb
infir and tbe Care That Should Be
^ Exercised In tbe Avoidance Both of
Expense and Disease.
Nowadays the plumber and his bill
are your true household specters. Like
other specters, careful common sense
"Will pat them to rout and confusion
nine times In ten. Wise men have been
studying this subject ever so long to
devise plumbing that would take care
of itself, but they have not yet suc?
ceeded. Neither are they likely to
without a revolution in mechanics
'Whereby the tendency of fluids always
to seek their own level may be elimi?
nated and other things as wonderful
brought to pass. 60 long as knowledge
remains nearly static so long will it
behoove every housemistress to look
.well to the usage of her pipes and her
jtraps.
A bit of rag or even string, a burnt
match, a wisp of hair, seems a very lit?
tle thing, one that the pipes can carry
off with no possible hurt but the rag,
by hanging over the bend of the trap,
may serve as a siphon to take away the
water seal, which is all that stands be?
tween the household and unlimited
sewer gas. And the rag .may keep on
doing lt for weeks and weeks until
deadly disease is rampant
A string snarled aid twisted may
work the same UL The match end. of
course, ought to float away harmless,
but is very mach likelier to be caught
in some eddy of the flush water, jam?
med into a crevice and there to take to
itself other solid particles until they
?onn a clot both offensive and danger?
ous.
As for hair, there is no end to the
harm it harbors. A wisp quickly forms
itself into a sort of strainer, catching
and holding all that passes. Aside
from that, it has a trick of lodging in
the most inconvenient places, catching
upon the least roughness inside the"
pipe and staying there until by accre?
tion It has clogged the whole space.
Hair has special affinity for bits of
soap. Solid soap, by the way. should
never be sent down the pipes. Very
strong soapsuds even is objectionable
unless you follow it with a flood of
^clean water, preferably hot water.
* Coffee grounds and tea leaves either
dog a pipe very soon or else, if the
Hush water prevents that wear it
through quickly, partly by mechanical
action, partly by chemical. Neither
. should ever be permitted in a sink.
Even if you are wise enough to keep
ont all grease, and thus make sure that
the grounds shall get safe away from
your own pipes, in the sewer they may
come in contact with grease from pipes
less carefully kept and cake and clog
your whole pipe system, making neces?
sary costly and inconvenient unclog?
ging.
Every kitchen ought to have its grease
can, emptied once a week in winter
and in summer every three days. All
sorts of refuse fat should go into it
even the scrapings from plates and
?shes. Greasy water, as from boiling
hams or corned beef, should: be allowed
to cool thoroughly, then have the
grease carefully taken off before it goes
down the pipes. Skillets and frying
pans ought to be filled with very hot
soda water and let stand half an hour
before washing. This gives time for
the soda to partly saponify the grease
and keep it from sticking to the pipe
or caking on top of the trap.
In scouring faucets be careful to keep
the scouring grit out of the joints.
Sven the finest particles cut away
screw threads turning macy times a
day. After scouring also t?-ke care to
let the water run at least a minute be?
fore catching any for use. In wash
ing sandy vegetables, as spinach, tur?
nips, potatoes, use a big pan and drain
off the dirty water, so the sand may be
caught Even a spoonful of sand go?
ing down a pipe will cut and wear it
?more than a hogshead of water.
Milky water is one of the hardest
things to manage. Even a small quan?
tity daily fouls pipes unless, the milky
?water ts followed by a flushing of soda
?water moderately strong, with a lime
water flush about every three days,
The ll me water is made more effective
tij adding salt to it. Sea salt is best.
Pot a lump as big as the fist in an
earthen or wooden vessel along with
twice the bulk of quicklime and cover
with four gallons of hot water. Stir
well and let settle. Pour the clear
liquid down the pipes and follow it in
half an hour with a flush of clear wa?
ter boiling hot Thus every kind of a
sink may be kept sweet and fresh.

How He Saved Hin Dinner.
In the little town of Arundel there is a
taxidermist who is gifted with won?
derful presence cf mind. Here is an
Instance:
Some time ago a gentleman called at j
his shop with a cock pheasant which j
he desired to have skinned, stating at !
the same time that he did not require ;
the body. This quite suited the taxi- .
dermist who thought the pheasant j
would do for his dinner on the morrow.
However, later in the day the gentle?
man called again and said that he
would take the body away. The tax?
idermist replied that it was unusual
for customers to take the bodies away,
but that he had no objection, and he
fetched the bird, which his wife bad
put on a plate and covered with flour. ?
"Ahf exclaimed the gentleman. "It I
looks very nice. But what is this white j
powder with which it Is covered?'
"Ob, that" replied the taxidermist j
quietly, "is arsenic. I always cover
tbe bodies with that until I can dis?
pose of them."
""Ar-arsenJcr* stammered the gentle?
man. "Why. I thought that the bird
.would be good to eat Thank you, I
sron't trouble to take lt away with me.

Pretty
Children
" We have three children. Before the
birth of the last one my wife used four bot?
tles of MOTHER'S FRIEND. If you had the
pictures of cur children, yon could see at
a glance that the Issi one
is healthiest, prettiest and
finest-looking: of them all.
My wife thinks Mother's
Friend is the greatest
and grandest
remedy in the
world for expect?
ant mothers."
Written by a Ken?
tucky Attorney-at
-Law.
prevents nine-tenths of the
suffering: incident to child?
birth. The coming: mother's
disposition and temper remain unruffled
throughout the ordeal, because this relax?
ing:, penetrating: liniment relieves the
usual distress. A. ^ood-natured mother
is pretty sure to have a good-natured child.
The patient Is kept in a strong:, healthy
condition, which the child also inherits.
Mother's Friend takes a wife through the
crisis quickly and almost painlessly. It
assists in her rapid recovery, and wards
off the dangars that so often follow de?
livery.
