HOW TO WASH WITH EASE.
Any Woman, With Little Experience,
Can Wash Garments satisfactorily.


Can Wash Garments Satisfactorily.
That the family washing cannot be salts
factorily done with a scant supply of hard
water and inferior soap is a fact not al
ways understood by hOusekeepers, yet
these inconvenience are the cause of vel
low clothes, and faded garments. Strong
I've soap made in the home kitchens, may
have answered for the use of our grand
mothers, and the cheap laundry soap found
in the village stores half century ago was
thought good enough for women who had
learned to make hard rubbing do the work
which good soap should have done. But in
this age of progress labor-saving appli-
ances are used by intelligent women, and
in no place do they count for more than in
the laundry. After asserting the clothes,
put the linens in tub nearly full of hot
water, and rub them with Ivory Soap,
each piece is washed, it should be wrung
out, and placed in a clean tub. When all
are washed pour boiling water over, and
let stand until cool, then rinse, and starch
the clothes After the linens are washed,
the white wearing clothes should be washed
in the same way, then the colored garments
taken through fresh suds, rinsed, starched,
and hung on the line. When dry each
piece should be taken from the line, shaken
out, sprinkled, folded and laid in a basket
until morning, when they should be care
fully ironed. ELIZA r. PARKER.

YOU CAN'T STOP 'EM.

The Fury OF an Unfettered Element Fails
to Crush Them-The Fire Fiend Defied.
The news comes from Attica, Ind,
of the destruction, by fire, of the big
laboratory and office building Of the
Sterling Remedy company, makers of
Cascarets Candy Cathartic and No-To-
Bac, the original guaranteed tobacco
habit cure. The preparations made by
this big corporation are known
throughout the world.
The fire broke out in one of the
packing rooms on the third floor during
the noon hour, and had made consider
able Roadway before it was discovered.
The Sterling Remedy company is the
principal industry of the beautiful 1T
tie city of Attica, employing several
hundred people, besides being affiliated
with the interests at the Indiana Min
eral Springs, the famous Magno-Mud
Cure. The entire population was
worked up to frenzy Of excitement.
Meanwhile the almost proverbial
energy and presence of mind of "Hust-
ling" Harry Kramer, the general man
ager of The Sterling Remedy company,
was displayed. He was the coolest
man at the scene. He quietly walked
away and secured a big carriage show
room near by, and had all ONCE Iurnl-
ture, charred and delapidated as 1T
was, taken there. Several shipments
were made the same evauing from
goods saved, and on Friday morning,
all departments were at work in var
ious rooms about town, while gang
of men were cleaning away the wreck
age preliminary to rebuilding.
The actual damage amounts to many
thousands Of dollars; the loss due to
interruption of business and confusion
Of detail is inestimatable, but pluck
and energy of one man will turn de-
feat into victory and move the wheels
of business to eYer-increasing speed.
Nothing can stop the success of Cas-
carets and No-To-Bac with such char
acteristic force behind them.

and was not easily conquered. as she
showed ON the occasion Of her husbands
death.
She settled Immediately that there
was but single course TO follow and
that was to checkmate Mrs. GRANGER.
All one afternoon she walked back and
forth in her little garden beneath the
trees. Her pucke-ed mouth and the
wrinkles above her eyes showed how
earnestly she was considering the sub

ears OF Mrs. Macarthur. How dare you

man Of this establishment bearing the
undignified appellation Of .Hobson' is
both a gentleman and scholar with a
first double. Though at present trife

And forthwith, as il to leave no doubt
az to his statement, he began to pour
forth scraps OF immortal Homer and OF
profound Shakespeare with equal ease;and
having lost and regained his breath be
addressed the appreciative audience in
all the Ian gusges from Scandinavia to
the Bosphorus. with little interlocutory
remarks scattered through the whole.
All this greatly to the establishment Of
Mrs. Macarthur.
Suddenly. she heard a word which
made her go quickly around the bushes,
in time to see the natives melting away
with remarkable swiftness Hobson was
rocking on his feet in an effort to remain
stiff and straight.

the reason for it.
She is what one would call brilliant
woman, clever and accompl' shed above
average, with admirable tact. At that
time she appeared perfect woman-ex-
cept in one thing; and it is Of this ore
little thing that l am going 10 talk.
There was also among us a quiet little
woman named Mrs. Macarthur. whose
husband had beer killed several hun
dred miles up country while leading his
company against one Of the native up
risings. When the news was brought to
her she did not faint and swoon, but
only turred white. and in twenty min.

considering that his head and trunk
had been hacked to pieces by the
natives
At first these two women had not had
much to do with one another for their
interests were not in common. Later,
however, they had nothing whatever
that is II say, great deal. This was
the manner OF the change: One day
Mrs. Crarcer called on Mrs. Macarthur
and begged Of her to dismiss her coach
man, whom, she said, had insulted her
the day before on the street. Mrs. Nc
Arthur was astonished and said that
certainly it must be a mistake probably
it was some one else's coachman.

thing she said, 'some other perhaps.
but not HObson. He has been with me
for five years and never heard Of him
doing such thing. nor ever a word
against him. He has fault OF drinking

and never obnoxious. certliniy could
not think OF dismissing him. detsst
native. and an English coachman is go
difficult to secure here" So Mrs. Gran
Ger went home and enmity existed he
tween them.
As time went on Mrs. GRANGER often
made little remarks concerning Mrs Nc
Arthur which were clever and witty
she could say very clever and witty
things All however was said IN hum
orous laughing way and her gentlemen
friends laughed with her and thought
very little ABOUT it.
But it did not stop with this. These
remarks became very noticeable. even to
such a degree that the men talked of it
among themselves and wondered what
such quiet unobtrasive little woman
as Mrs. Macarthur could have done.
And yet while wondering, determined to
follow Mrs. GRANGER.
Certainly something must BE- wrong"
they said. and thus they settled it with
out further thought. Besides no one de-
sired TO gain the ill-wilI OF Mrs. GRANGER
who made such a charming hostess.
Now, such a ,ndition OF affairs could
not exist long without Mrs. Macarthur
discovering it. She saw just the least
perceptible GOODNESS on the part Of some
of her acquaintance. Then also most
