pire a special course of instruction has
been started for children SO afflicted.
In Berlin six specialists engaged by the

A prime requisite is to keep the poul-

this direction, it goes without saying
that plenty Of fresh air should be cir

not apt to get a foothold. The houses

To Remove Spots from Tab1ec1oths.

To Remove Spots from TableC1oths~
Where there are children in the house
it is almost inevitable that there will be
stains upon the tablecloth, but these
may be removed if taken in hand at
once, though it requires two people to
work the remedy. The portion of the
tablecloth that is spotted should be
placed over a slop basin or jug and
stretched tightly across it, and held
down at the sides. While one person
is doing this second must take a jug
of boiling water and pour it into the
basin or jug through the tablecloth.
The force of the water will as a rule
be effectual in entirely removing the
stain

which the air in the can may be ex-
