Various Item of Information Which
May Come ta Handy at
Any Time.
Chamois makes as durable and satis-
factory a duster us can be used. To
keep it clean it must be washed in soap
Huds dried in the shade oud rubbed dry.
It will hold a little dumpness aud is
satisfactory in this way for dusting.
Imitation chamois is also very good
uud less expensive. Dusters should be
keDt for the purposes' for which they
tire intended and should never be used
for anything else. " ' i
Don't throw away the trimmings
from your new tablecloths. Those long
linen threads you will need when your
tablecloth begins to break a little.
With them you can prolong its span of
life many days. Also try in ironing
your tablecloths to have them folded in
different ways to vary the creases so
that the wear will not come always in
the same place.
Doilies and carving cloths should be
rolled on a stick or roll of paper after
they have been ironed without being
folded. The centerpieces should never
be rolled tightly if they fire embroid-
ered. A piece of soft paper and flannel
should be placed under them. Your
heavy linen will not need starch but
the old Knen will be better for a little
starch and bluing. See that your
laundress uses the heavy irons for the
linen.
The prettiest gift at a wedding the
other day was a book of doilies made
like an old-fashioned needle book. It
was of white linen marked in white on
the outside: "Doilies" while inside
were flannel leaves with sheets of blue
tissue-paper and alternately between
them thirteen beautiful embroidered
doilies the work of one of the bride's
friends.
Linen will last much longer If soaked
and then steamed or boiled without
rubbing. Let it boil about five min-
utes liinse very thoroughly. Did
you ever notice iron rust spots in your
linen for which you could not account?
Those were caused by the laundress
who was careless about rinsing and
left the soap in.
Of course every good housekeeper
sees that the stains are removed from
the linen before it goes into the wash.
If it is not convenient for you to use
lemon juice and salt to take out Iron
rust spots it may be easier to buy lem-
on salts to keep on hand for such an
emergency. The salts are somewhat
stronger than the lemon. Grass stains
will always yield to cream of tartar if
the spot is wet and well rubbed. N.

BOUND TO DO BUSINESS.
The Peatlferoni Tactics of Wily Ar-
menian Rug Merchant! Seeking-
Trade.
Two extremely . oriental-appearing
Armenians clad in the dirtiest of Amer-
ican clothes and each with a brilliant
red fez perched rakishly upon his head
have for many weeks besieged the of-
fice of downtown business men offer-
ing for sale gaudy rugs of yellow red
and gold. These fakir generally an-
nounce themselves by a guttural "Good
morning mister" and then proceed to
dump their ware upon th floor and
Jnaist that "the irood gentleman' wife
would bo Diea&ed witi thi. beautiful
weaving so cheap only eight dol-
lars." These fellow will not be turned
away without making a sale so persist
ent are they in their palaver.
The other dav one of the fakir snd
denly appeared in the office of a cer
tain manager in the city. "Oood morn-
ing" began the Armenian. "See the
beautiful rues. Mister would like one?"
"No; get out!" replied the gentle
man firmly.
"This one is only five dollars mister
You must want it."
"I tell you no!" reiterated the nerv-
ous business man.
"HI let you have it for three dollars.
I rob mvself " persisted the fakir.
"Will you go out if I give you one dol-
lar for it?" asked the almost frantio
man in final desperation.
The peddler agreed and the collar
was paid over. Just then a friend of
the manaxrer came in. The Armenian
held up to Mia another rug of identical
ly the same pattern.
"Only five dollars?" asked the un-
abashed fakir in an inquiring' tone.
"Not no!" replied the new arrival.
"I couldn't give you a dollar for it"
"Take it for one dollar" asserted the
Armenian holding the rug out
"No I didn't offer you a dollar. I
said I couldn't give you a dollar for it
"What you got?" inquired the son of
"sunny climes. '.
: The friend let fall a deep sigh. "Fif-
teen cents and two car tickets."
"Take the rug" rejoined the wily
foreigner. And the exchange was made
while the manager swore awful corses
upon the head of the downtrodden Ar-
menians. Chicago Chronicle. '
The Fntnro Im Doubt.
' A clergyman says: "I once married a
handsome young couple and as I took
the bride by the hand at the dose of the
ceremony and gave her my warmest
congratulations she tossed her pj-etty
head and pointing to the bridegroom
replied: 'I think he's the one to be
congratulated.' "Tit-Kits.
