to some legal business. They started for home
about noon. and after proceeding some distance

reason that he wanted a drink of beer, His
wife told him there was no need of going back
as there was a saloon close at hand, and if he
wanted glass of beer to so in and get one
However. he did not do so, but drove straight
home and after putting out his team started for
the house, when he fell to the ground and in a
! short time expired. Investigation revealed the
| fact that he had purchased a large quantity OF
strychnine while in town. and failing of ndin &
an opportunity of taking it on the way home
did SO Immediately after taking care of his

THE HOUSEHOLD,
Ironing Collars and Shirts.

We suppose that clothes have been
properly washed and starched-which is
not always true, we are sorry to note.
Take one article at time and lay it on
clean white ironing board. See that
your hands are immaculate and your
irons clean rub the latter on brown pa
per and a bit of beeswax, then on clean
rag. If your polisher is at the right
heat it will only take few firm rubs up
and down on eacn side TO make you feel
proud of your collars and cuffs.
The shirt-hosoms are drawn out
smoothly on bosom board, after ironing
the sleeves and tail, also the neck and
wristbands. Now grasp the neck with
your left hand and slide, as it were, your
iron up the middle sending all the wrin-
kles to the sides instead of to the top or
bottom. Press firmly, curve around the
neckband so that it will stand, put pin
in to preserve it's shape, fold and your
work is done. Don't be discouraged by
your first failure; the results are worth
the trials, and you will soon find yourself
able to accomplish satisfactory success.
You will find that your husband, father
or brother will soon stop taking part of
each weeks wash to John Chinaman or
the steam laundry and will take pride in
their linen, as white rs snow and as stiff
