secret For Ironing shirts.

A great secret in ironing shirts is to
let them be perfectly dry before they
are starched. When they are quite dry,
rub them we'll into stiff cold water starch,
being particular as to its getting well
into every fold of the linen; then wiring
them tightly by hand Uhe machine
wrlnger would get out too much of the
starch); then either iron them at once or
wrapped up in a damp cloth. Do not
dry them after the starch is put in be-
fore you iron them. If you wish an ex-
ira gloss, after they have been irOned
once rub the front, collars and cuffs
lightly over with just moistened white
CASTLE soap and iron them all over again
with the CLOSING iron, if You have one,
or with an ordinary rather heavy iron,
pressing it we'll on the material. 1t is
this that gives the chinalike polish OBJ
servable on perfectly got up shirts.
For the cold water starch mix table
spoonful of white starch with a little
cold water, working it with the fingers
to get it perfectly smooth and being
very careful to remove any-even the
slightest-grit When this is quite
smooth, stir into it enough cold water to
make up altogether a teacupful of wa
ter and t drops Of turpentine. Then dis
solve small half teaspoonful of borax
in very little boiling water and stir it
all into the starch, stirring it also well
before using it. If larger quantity of
starch is required, all the ingredients are
increased i'll proportion excepting the
turpentine, of which only drops are
added to each cupful of water after the
first. But remember that the borax
must in any case be thoroughly dissolv-
ed before the starch is used, or there is
chance of its discoloring the linen.

How Animals Talk,

The language of the lower animals is
not all articulate-it is largely sign Ian
guage The horse does a deal of talking
by motions Of the head and by his Won
derfully expressive looks. He also, upon
occasion, talks with the peculiar switches
Of his tail, and threat to kick is surely
an equine form Of speech. The darby
was not far y rong who said of the kick
ing mule, Its just his way of talking"
The intelligent dog is able not only to
look volumes, but can express whole SEN
fences by wags of the tail more readily
than can the waving flags of the signal
corps. All that is necessary is to learn
his code. We expect our domestic animals
to learn our language and obey our COM
mands. Yet with our higher intelligence
we fail to learn their language, by means
of which we might better understand their
wants and dispositions, so as to control
them by kindness instead of harsh and
arbitrary treatment. Horses in the street
say by every look and motion that they
are suffering acute torture because of Il
tight checkrein. Their drivers are often
people who would be shocked if they could
comprehend their own cruelty. animal

Rule 13-Only three games in succession are
allowed If another match is made.
Rule 14-All claims shall be decided by the
referee, whose decisions in all cases shall be
final.
The ace line mentioned runs across the
center of the court parallel with the front
wall, and the ball used is much like base
ball, although very much smaller, and is
leather covered. The constant aim of
player is to put the ball against the front
wall in such a manner that when it strikes
the court floor his opponent is unable to
reach it. After a time player becomes so
proficient that he can strike the ball with
either hand and cause it to rebound into
the court in such a manner that his oppo-
nent is often unable to successfully return
it. A man to play the game we'll should
use both hands with equal effect, and until
he can use his left hand as we'll as his right
he cannot lay claim to being an expert.

."GRANNY'S POCKET"
That L. the Name of the Novelty Workbng
So PoDular inst Now,

So Popular just Now.
"Granny's pocket" as it is called, is
being carried by all workers in needle
craft, whether their vocation is the darn
ing of socks or the weaving of silken
spider webs upon lustrous bits of satin
or bloomy velvets. The idea of this clev-
'srly devised workbag is borrowed from
a Partisan bonbon bag which was pre-
sented, with cargo of toothsome dain-
ties, to some fair one, who, after she had
rified the pretty trifie of its sugary con-
tents, was supposed to wear it at her side
as a receptacle for sewing materials.
Since the granny pocket has made its
debut upon this side of the water, how
ever, its duties have been slightly alter
ed, according to Golden Days, which
says: In selecting this novelty as gift
the donor fits it out with needles, gem
of thimble, the finest as well as the
tiniest of scissors, along with many more
sewing necessaries, and SO the granny
pocket, minus chocolates and conserves,
becomes altogether a sewing pocket.
1t is sometimes decided piece of lux
ury, made of blossom strewn satin, with
silky lining, lacey cascades and f1utter-
ing ribbons, but for those who are seek
ing prettiness and practically at a low
plaided ginghams is selected, as it makes
up very effectively.
The cut of the granny pocket is very
similar to that of bib apron. The low
or part of the bag is given a slight stitfen

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Salt fish are quickened and best fresh
ened by soaking in sour milk.
Clothes when brought in should be sep
arated and folded at once. If allowed to
lie together, many wrinkles accumulate.
Lemon will remove stains from the hands
Manicures use acids in the shop, but the
lemon is quite as good and isn't poisonous,
while the acids are.
One of the simplest ways of disinfecting
a room is to pour a dram or two of sui
phuric acid on saucer of salt and set it in
the middle of the room. The fumes do the
disinfecting.
The chimney of a lamp should never be
touched with water. A few drops of alec
hol or even paraftin oil will remove the
dimmed, smoky effect and make the chin
ney as bright as possible when it is polished
with a soft flannel or chamois skin.

used, and the heavy paving of the
horses in their efforts to draw their
loads assists in destroying the surface.
All these combined VIII necessitate ire
quent attention to that roadbed, an ex-
pense that will be permanent.
On the other hand level stretches are
equally difficult to maintain in good
condition, from the fact that, as they
are not washed by rains, dust and mud
accumulate en- them. The mud forms
channels. from which the water cannot
escape laterally, and through lack of
fall neither can it flow longitudinally.
The result is that it remains on the
roadbed, sottens it, ruts follow, and a
permanent expense is again incurred
for the maintenance of the section.
1t will therefore be realized that econ
omy in grading can be false economy
of the worst kind.
Really good maCadamiZed roads will
never be realized here until they, like
all other things that we own and care
to keep in good condition, receive prop
er treatment at the hands of those using
them. just so long as drivers continue
to drive in one continuous track with
heavily laden wagons, so that the
calked hOofs of team after team are
picking the road loose in one narrow
lane while the wheels are pounding
and rutting it at each side as Il suitable
frame for a picture of destruction, just
so long you need not look for ecunom-
ical roads, because the heaviest and best
of construction will under those condi-
tions give but very ordinary results.
There is no reason why country or,
more properly speaking, farm wagons
and carts--springless ones, as rule,
and consequently the most injurious to
a road-should not be provided with
wide tires and have the rear axle several
inches longer than the front one. These
vehicles in passing over the roads will,
to a certain extent, mend the damage
done by the others. brooklyn Eagle.
