The sociaIist Law al Berlin

BERLIN, March 16th.--When the news of
the assassination reached Berlin it was imme-

to an official report lately presented to Par
lament, it seems that the anarchic element,
though unseen, is more vital and vigorous

HINTS on SEARCHED LINEN. Much has
been said and written about poorly "done
up T" linen. One will tell us to use boiled
starch, another will say use it cold, and
another says she cannot get the linen stiff
enough to suit her men folks without first
using the starch when boiled and then cold.
/ think the fault in most cases is not in the
;starching, but in the ironing Linen will
not look nice ironed with rough, dirty
iron, no matter in what way it is starched.
It is the soiled look caused by dirty irons,
and not lack of stiffness that most men
complain of. do pity the man whose
linen comes from the ironing board looking
only fit for the wash. To prevent this
soiled appearance it is not necessary to
have nickel plated or any other improved
fatirons the old fashioned irons will do
well enough if kept smooth and clean.
They should be kept in dry place to pre-
vent rust, and should never remain on the
stove unless in use. l have noticed those
who keep them on the stove from one iron
ing day to another always have rough irons,
and consequently soiled linen. When they
are set to cool, always set On the end as
they gather moisture if set on the face. In
using cold starch, do not have the water
very thick with starch, wet the linen, then
place it on the ironing board and rub with
dry cloth. This will remove the parti-
eles of starch that would stick to the iron,
and does not take the starch from the linen
as rinsing it would. l find no trouble in
doing up starched clothes in nice manner
since | have tried this way.-[Corr.

CoPYRIGHT. international copy
right discussion is opening the eyes of
English readers to the exorbitant prices
demanded for English books in comparison
with the prices charged in America for the
works, not of pirated English authors but
of American authors. An English
Reader" says in the Pal Mall Gazette :.
s'The real interest which is opposed to the
change is that of the reading American
public. If that interest could be concil.
lated there would be little to fear from the
publishers. Of that interest and of their
behavior to English authors we are accus.
toned to hear very hard things, from the
DAYS of Dickens downward. But have
they nothing to say for themselves? Is it
the case that they simply refuse to pay fair
wages for fair work or is the state of the
English book market such as to inspire
them with just fear that if they admit
unqualified copyright they will have to
suffer not only from excessive price, but,
what is of far more Importance, from the
diminished demand and supply which ex-
cessive price would create? If l were an
American l should feel justified, morally
and politically, in declining to place the
supply of good literature within the un-
limited control of any publisher, whether
English or American. The moral of my
letter is that the Americans have great
deal to say for themselves that it be-
hooves our authors, whose real interest
lies in the widest possible market, to look
to their own interests and that the pre-
liminary condition to market for them in
America is reasonable price at home"
