E OUT STAINS
SO STUBBORN THAT THEY
CAN’T BE REMOVED.

[Stops Coughs-Cures Colds]
Grain Alcohol One of the Best Reme-
dies to Employ, or In Some Cases
Javelle Water Will Do the
Work Better.
Alcohol will usually remove tht,
stains made by grass and fruit juice,
although It will not discourage In
the least the stains of some kinds of
fruit Only grain alcohol should be
used. It acts better If used w'arm, and
can be heated by holding the bottle
containing It In hot water. If
patches of the stain remain pour boil-
ing water on them. If they still per-
sist, dilute muriatic acid. In a one
per cent, solution, can be applied. Care
should be taken to rinse the fabric
thoroughly afterward In several wa-
ters, with a very little ammonia In the
last one, to counteract the effect of the
acid and prevent It from Injuring the
cloth. Javelle water, which can be
made at home, Is a trustworthy means
for removing almost any fruit stain.
It Is especially good for peach and
pear stains, which are usually the
most obstinate of all spots. Soak the
spots In it for three or four minutes,
and then rinse In cold, clean water.
Afterward launder the article as usual.
Alcohol Is usually a perfect solvent
for the stain of green vegetable mat-
ter, whether or not the material be
washable. Some housewives find or-
dinary kitchen molasses sufficient
remedy for such, stains upon any sort
of fabric. It Is rubbed thoroughly
Into the stain, allowed to stand ten
minutes, and then washed out with
warm water and soap. If the article
cannot be washed, the molasses is left
on, with the stain thickly covered,
for two or three days. Then It is wiped
and sponged off with clear water. If
traces remain they will probably yield
to a sponging with alcohol, or a mix-
ture of equal parts of ether and alco-
hol with a dash of ammonia.
Steak and Olives.
Take about two pounds of rump
steak, brown well In frying pan with
a little butter, then put in casserole
with a little water and bake slowly
three hours. Then put in enough wa-
ter to make sufficient gravy, one pint
of carrots cut In cubes. About half
an hour before serving put In a small
bottle of stuffed olives, cut In halves.
Serve In the casserole. The meat will
not need much salt, on account of the
olives being salty.
Wire Griddles.
Buy a piece of ordinary wire screen
ing and have it cut up into squares
to serve as griddles on the gas stove
when using saucepans too small to
rest on the racks over the burners,
says a contributor to the Woman’s
Home Companion. You do not have
to wait for them to heat through and
they are very light to handle. Brass
wire netting is more durable than
ordinary screen, If obtainable.

CANADA’S OFFERING
TO THE SETTLER
HE KNEW WHAT TO AVOID
OJLJ5EHOID
UESTIONS
Use very little bluing in washing
laces, for the lace absorbs a great deal
of blue.
To smooth an iron, plunge it while
hot Into cold water with a little soap
In It
Never try to clean yokes, collars or
cuffs while sewed on the gown. Such
thlngB should always be made detach-
able.
To remove the leather stains from
light colored stockings, put a couple
of tablespoonfuls of borax In the wa-
ter In which they are washed.
To make baked potatoes dry and
mealy, just when potatoes are tender,
put a fork at least twice into each
potato to let the steam escape.
To clean ribbons sponge with alco-
hol and over the spot with some clean,
clean, white soap. During the process
the ribbon must be kept straight
When clean rinse in alcohol and plqce
between two towels. Press out with
a hot Iron.
In the directions for washing white
silk sugar is recommended also. The
silk should be washed Iff warm, not
hot, water, with pure castile soap, then
rinsed thoroughly in water to which
has been added a teaspoonful of granu-
lated sugar. The silk garment should
be washed by itself.
Chocolate Sauce.
Melt two squares of unsweetened
chocolate in a bowl placed over boil-
ing water. Cream together one-quar
ter cup butter, one cup of sugar. Stir
the mixture thoroughly into the melt-
ed chocolate, add one-half cup of hot
milk and stir until well dissolved and
smooth, then add one-half teaspoon ol
vanilla

If Knowing Human Nature Would Do
It, This Man Would Have Made
Good Preacher.
"Dr. John Haynes Holmes, who
preached a Bull Moose sermon to
President Taft the Sunday before elec-
tion day, Isn’t like Washington
White,” said a member of Dr. Holmes’
Church of the Messiah In New York.
Washington White was an aged
hod carrier. Laying down his paper
one evening he said to his wife over
his spectacles:
“ ‘Martha, I believe I’d make a
preacher. Listen, now, and I’ll give
you a sermon.’
"The old man then stood up to the
table and bellowed out a vigorous dis-
table and bellowed out a vigorous dis-
course on the wickedness of the idola-
ters of the Orient.
“His wife said at the end:
“ ‘A good enough sermon, Washing-
ton, but you’ve told us all about the
sins of the foreigners, and never a
word about the sins of the folks at
home here.’
" ’Ha, ha, ha, I understand preachin'
too well for that,’ laughed the wily old
man.”

Somewhat Lazy.
A lawsuit was recently in full swing
and during its progress a witness was
cross-examined as to the habits and
character of the defendant.
“Has Mr. M- a reputation for
being abnormally lazy?' asked coun-
sel briskly.
"Well, sir, it’s this way-
"Will you kindly answer the ques-
tion asked?” struck in the irascible
lawyer.
“Well, sir, I was going to say It’s
this way. I don’t want to do the
gentleman In question any Injustice.
And I won’t go so far as to say, sir,
that he’s lazy exactly; but, If It re-
quired any voluntary work on his
part to digest his food—why, he’d
die from lack of nourishment, sir.”—

nor none of them signs. They'll all

times I’ll get throwed down, and I
won’t bounce back. Then I’ll know
it's all over. When a man gets that
way, he's old. Old, see? It don’t make
any difference how much longer he
lives after that, he don’t ever get any
older.—“Billy Fortune.

Equivocal Reply.
A nonconformist clergyman in Man-
chester is chuckling over a letter he
recently received from the vicar of
a certain parish. He had written to
the vicar asking for permission to con-
duct a funeral in the churchyard.
“He immediately sent me a most
courteous note,” the noncomformlst
clergyman says; “but I could not help
noticing that it would be possible to
give to his word a sinister meaning.
The note ran: “You will, both to-
morrow and at any other time, be
most welcome in our churchyard.'"—

Where Autos Are Barred.
Prince Edward island bars automo-
biles, not because the islanders can-
not afford the machines, but because
of accidents caused by the reckless-
ness of drivers who brought in the
first cars. They caused many run-
aways, and a few had tragic endings.
The legislature at once passed a law
barring autos from the island. Some
of the leading cities have since en-
deavored to have the enactment re-
peated, but the country influence has
always been strong enough to over-
come all such efforts.
HEAD A MASS OF PIMPLES
Hyattsville, Md.—“My little boy was
taken with an itching on the scalp.
There was an ashy place on his head
about the size of a ten-cent piece, and
the hair was falling from this place
by the roots. In about ten days all
over his head were these ashy spots
which looked like ringworm, but were
porous-like. The itching and burning
made him scratch a great deal. His
head had gotten so that it was just a
mass of mattery little pimples all
heaped on each other, and when I took
off his night-cap, the hair and flesh
came off at the same time. I really
thought he would lose his whole scalp.
He couldn’t sleep for five weeks, It
would itch and burn until I thought
he would go into convulsions.
“I used different soaps and salves
to no satisfaction. Then I decided to
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
Finally I noticed he began to sleep all
night. I used one cake of Cuticura
Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint-
ment and he was entirely cured. He
has a better growth of hair now than
he had at first.’’ (Signed) Mrs. Ida
S. Johnson, Mar. 26, 1912.

remarkable story. I think we ought
to raise Pennington’s salary. He
didn’t wind up by saying: “The

“I’m sorry to have to tell you that
