CONDENSED THOUGHTS.

If mans friends stick to him when
his money is gone the price was well
paid.
The lazy man wants things leveled
down. The ambitious one tries to
have them evened up.
The wall which separates genius
from insanity is as likely as not to
stand away over ON the other side of
the line.
God has given the poet an imagina.
ton so that he can have the pleasure
of thinking of things no would do II
he had money.
When people begin to talk of a
lady's ability to get around lively for
one of her years" she may as well
give up the frills.
One nice thing about being a GER
tain kind of a preacher is that he can
go to such wicked places after ma
terial for sermons.

IRONING A SHIRT WAIST.

Not infrequently young woman
finds 1t necessary to launder a shirt
waist at home for some emergency
when the laundryman or the home SER
want cannot do it. Hence these direc-
tions for ironing the waist: To iron
summer shirt waists 80 that they will
look like new It is needful to have
them starched evenly with Defiance
starch, then made perfectly smooth
and rolled tight in a damp cloth. to be
laid away two or three hours. When
ironing have a bowl of water and a
clean piece of muslin beside the iron
Ing board. Have your iron hot, but
not sufficiently so to scorch, and abso-
lutely clean. Begin by ironing the
back, then the front, sides and the
sleeves. followed by the neckband and
the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap-
ply the damp cloth and remove them.
Always iron from the top OF the waist
to the bottom. If there are plaits in
the front iron them downward, after
nrst raising each one with a blunt
knife, and with the edge of the iron
follow every line of stitching to give it
distinctness. After the shirt waist is
ironed 1t should be well aired by the
fire or in the sun before 1t is folded
and put away, says the Philadelphia
Inquirer.
