waist at home for some emergency
when the laundryman or the home SER
want cannot do it. Hence these direc-
tons for ironing the waist: To iron
summer shirt waists so 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 q damp cloth, to be
laid away two or three hours. When
ironing have q 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. II there are plaita in
the front iron them downward, after
FIRST raising each one with blunt
knife. and with the edge of the iron
follow every line OF stitching to give II
distinctness. After the shirt waist Is
ironed II should be well aired by the

DR.. Edward w. Emerson, the son of

the victim of his own generosity. says
the New York Tribune. In Concord.

fund of amusement Among the oddi-
ties of the old codger who is locally
known as Charlie is a fondness for
reading. No one has ever discovered
how much pf his re. ding is for pleas
ure, but "Ct arlie" is never seen with
out at least one book under his arm.
The other day Charlie came to DR..
Emerson. and said sorrowfully: Doc
tor. they wort let me take books out
of the library any more"
DR.. Emerson has a fine private IL
brary, and, moved by the sadness. in
Charles tone, said kindly: Never
mind, Charlie You may take any
book of mine you wish"

lie departed, and did not return for
several days. Then he came back, and

GREATNESS ARusr UPON HIM


How Poor Frdnqh Poet was Made Great
stI(teiFunctionary.
A poor PariS,ln poet named Dubois.
during the reiJ of Napoleon |. ad-
dressed an ode to Princess Pauline.
Napoleon's fayA lite sister. A relative
to the poet bel waiting maid to the
princess. presded the ode with the
result that PAIN asked for post
for M. Dubois, oman of superior gifts.
Minister FouchN delighted to please
the princess, called at the poets hum
BILE attic. The, poet put his head out
of the window of his garnet and espy-
ing a carriage escorted by gendarmes,
concluded that the holiness of his re-
marks with regard to universal
peace had been badly received by the
emperor and that they had come to
arrest him. Prompted by his fear
Dubois considered it most prudent to
hide under his bed. The poet was got
out and was sent to Elba as commits
sary general of police. 1t was some
time ere Fouche and Pauline met. and
the princess had difficulty in remem-
bering the request that she had made
for Dubois. Does not your highness
recollect a letter sent to me about
three months ago, most pressingly
recommending a NJ. Dubois. man of
letters. in whom your highness took
the greatest INTEREST,"" "One mo-
ment," said the princess. and then a
smile overspread her beautiful fea-
lures. My protege, NJ. lie Due, was a
poor poet "a relative of one of my
maids, who sent me an ode. What
have you done with him? Have you
given him stool in one of your de-
partments?" The minister nettled
at having been duped in that way,
took particular care to suppress the
fact of his having made grand func-
tionary of Dubois. Unfortunately
Pouches friends at court got wind of
the thing and there was an a1d of the
secret. Napoleon himself was vastly
amused at II and baltered his minis
ter. Dubois was recalled but already
800, 600 francs had been paid to him.
