Iron lace on the right sides first,

The pattern.
When ironing laces, cover them with
clean, whlte tissue paper. This pre-
vents the shiny look seen on wasghed
lace.
When putting lace away fold ais lit
Me ais possible. A good plan is to
wind it round "a card, AIS they do In
the shops.
Use corn -four instead of ordinary
starch for stitfening laces. This
makes them firm and does not de-
tract from the "lacy" appearance.
Laces and other delicate trlfes
should be placed IN a muslin bag be-
fore being boiled. This prevents their
getting lost and torn in the wash.
After getting up" laces. do NOT
leave them ITO air in "a damp place
round the fire when the kettle is boil
ling, for instance. This robs them Of
their freshness and makes them look
limp.
All laces before being ironed, should
b. carefully pulled out, each point re.
cedvtng attention. You will be REPEALED
for your trouble, as the Lace will look
twice as nice and lIast clean a much
longer time.

CABINET MEETING.


Washington, Nov. 10.-Two of the
three hours that the session lasted at
the cabinet meeting yesterday were
occupied in a discussion of foreign
affairs, necessitated in part by the
fact that the president intends to ex-
haustively treat this subject in his
forthcoming message to congress.
Reference was made to the express
sions in portions of the European
press that the United States policy
regarding China would undergo
marked change. After a most ex-
haustive review of every step of the
Chinese difficulty, from its inception
up to the present moment, delivered
by Secretary Hay, the cabinet rat
fled every detail and moreover unan-
imously expressed its judgment that
the policy so far pursued should be
continued without change to its logi-
cal conclusion. Accordingly, the
present legation guard at Pekin will
be maintained and such troops as yet
remain to be withdrawn, according
to the original programme will be
shipped to Manila. With this addi-
ton to his force, Gen. Macarthur is
expected to renew the campaign
against the rebellious Filipinos with
the greatest energy. Administration
officials here think that as soon as
the result of the election becomes
known throughout the Philippines
the resistance to the authority of
the United States will be over.
