TO CLEANSE WHITE LACE.
II Slightly Soiled Let Lie in Magnssia
Over Night and Use CASTLE
Soap When Necessary.

White lace II soiled but slightly may
be cleaned by rubbing in corn meal,
magnesia or corn starch and then, after
allowing the lace to remain In the meal
over night, by brushing carefully with
clean brush
II the lace has become discolorsd BY
perspiration it can be whitened thus:
Soak N solution Of CASTLE soap ten min
utes, then place in the sun, stiN sat
urated with the soap solution, and re-
peat the process until the original color
Is restored. 1t is absolutely necessary
to have the effect Of the sunlight; soap
and water alone with not suffice. II the
lace be soiled evenly In all parts with
out any special stains, make solution
of tepid water, using white CASTLE or
some other simple, reliable white soap.
Put the lace into this and shake 1t up
and down, changing the water as sooR
as it IL the least discolored; do this until
the lace assumes It's original color and
the water remains clean. Then gently
press it between the palms Of the hands
never wiring it-and rinse In several
clean tepid waters; never use either hot
or cold water.
II 1t be necessary to stiffen the lace,
into the water put a small amount Of
sugar; just enough to make the water
feel sticky. Or If more stiffness be de-
sired, dissolve two or three kernels OF
gum arabic In a pint Of lukewarm wa
ter. Let the lace soak in this five or
ten minutes, then press between the
hands again and pat until partially dry.
Now It is ready for pinning; this is
the part that requires patience and is
the important element Of the whole
process. Secure board the length Of
the lace If possible; cover smoothly and
tightly with at least two thicknesses of
flannel. Pull the lace into shape most
carefully and place right side down on
the flannel Pin evenly on each point
or scallop on both sides, being careful
not to pull the lace too tightly, but just
tight enough. After 1t is done go over
1t again and you may ind places for
20 more pins.
Let the lace remain pinned about IL
hours; then remove pins; with fine
needle pick out each little bead. and you
will have a piece of lace that looks like
new.--Washington Star.

Great Growth In Exports.
Philadelphia Press.

ASoos
America not only helps feed and
clothe a large part of the outside
world, but supplies various articles OF
manufacture in rapidly increasing guam
titles. In the fiscal year which ended
with June this country exported S543,
900, 900 worth of manufactured goods.
That was $91, 900, 900 more than was ex-
ported during the previous year. In
ten years the value of this class of ex-
ports has been multiplied by three.
The growth in exports far outruns the
increase in population. In thirty years
the number of people has grown from
As, 900, 900 to about S9, OOO,OOO but dur
ing the same period the value of manu-
featured exports has risen nearly $50
per cent.
The United States embraces the pre-
mier agricultural belt of the entire
earth Numberless rivers, coal beds
that seem unlimited, whole mountain
ranges of iron ore and great deposits of
the richer metals are some of the nat
ural resources which the American has
at his elbow. Added to these he has
the brains and industry necessary to
convert steel and timber into merchan-
disc which other peoples of the world
require. Best of all, this lucky citizen
lives under a Government where the
national keynote is Square deal" for

GETTING A GOOD SOD.
The First Year Do Not Bother Much
About Pulling Weeds and Do
Not Cut Grass Too Soon.

After the sod Is we'll started there
b NO time to sit down with folded
hands, for weeds by the thousand will
spring up as II by magic. Do not be
discouraged II the FIRST year the fer
tilizer brings up more weeds than
grass. In time the grass will conquer.
Some people object 70 sowing clover
and timothy for this reason, but II
you cannot afford to buy selected lawn
grass seed, by all means use what you
have, no matter II 1t is weedy. The
manure will have weed seeds In 1t,
no matter how well rotted 1t may
seem; so let the pests enjoy their brief
triumph. Two yards in town, side by
side, from one Of which the weeds
were hand pulled the first season and
the other let alone, the latter did the
best decidedly The soil and condi-
lions of planting were the same, but
the tramping about necessary to pull
the weeds after every shower de-
stroyed a great deal of the grass, and
lnO LOllOmin6 lnC a. VI n9u "
be rolled and reseeded.
And don't be too jealous to cut your
grass often till 1t gets a start. The
old-established sod may be trimmed
as often as you like, but the thin spots
must be avoided the first season at
least. While such pests as ground Ivy
need to be uprooted ruthlessly, the
dandelions and docks will be crowded
out in a few seasons If cut closely
after the grass gets a start. BY all
means, clear out the scrubby, ragged
looking patches Of roses, the shrubs
that will not stay within proper
bounds and all the other things that
interfere with beautiful lawn. Open
spaces are more beautiful than untidy
expenses of shrubbery, and the best
yard of all has sunlight and shadow
In judicious quantities. Board or stone
edge to flower beds and walks, too
much shrubbery, broken-down trees
and vines, allowed to wander at will,
never improve the looks OF any home
and 1t Is well to plant no more flow
ers and trees than can be taken care
Of properly. A thick velvsty turf is
the first requisite for beauty, and only
patience and care can accomplish the
desired result.
1t is never too late to mend and no
matter what anyone says about the
folly Of renovating poor sod, it can be
done The more you work toward that
end the more you will notice the lawns
of your neighbors and friends, and in
that way can gain much valuable in
formation. Farmer.

The Soaring Stock Market.
Philadelphia Press.

Philadelphia Press.
The average price of the share mar
ket has now passed all previous records.
1t has risen in value, on the average, to
point one-half higher than the low point
of two years ago; it is double the aver
age of ten years ago and treble earlier
dates.
This rapid advance..this year has come
under two separate impulses. One is
due to the very large issue Of securities
used for railroad expansion, manufsct-
uring and building. In two years a
round 81, OOO, 900, 600 of new securities
have been expended on new material,
increasing freights and employing
labor.
The cereal crops this year are also
the largest on record. Large as they
are, the price of food does not fall be-
cause consumption has increased. For
the same reason commodities are high
err. The average of prices of food and
commodities is third higher than nine
years ago. The amount spent in gross
on wages has increased even more; but
the rate of wages to the individual has
not increased as yet. More men re-
ceive wages, but wages are not higher.
Whether the advance in stocks has
more than discounted these two factors,
new issues ard big crops, no one can
tell until some cause comes putting on
the market large blocks of stocks which
must be sold. The only event likely to
apply this test is the panic which will
come in Berlin and Paris if peace is not
made. This will force heavy sales of
American securities. Peace now seems
likely.
Greaterprofts for capital, far easier
times for those unemployed or scantily
occupied in hard times and high prices
for those steadily employed at regular
wages are the net result of the present
condition.

IN CLEARING TABLE.
Have Shelf-Room for Soiled Dishes
Which Should Be Carefully
Scraped and Sorted.

The pantry should be supplied with
enough shelves for the safe disposal
of the soiled dishes as they are
brought from the dining-room.
AS soon as time can be spared from
the dining-room the waitress should
scrape the dishes quietly and thor
oughly, and pile all of the same size
and kind together. Use bit of bread
for scraping the glassware, delicate
dishes, soup ladle, fish knife, etc. Pour
all liquid waste from the dishes
through the strainer into the sink.
Empty and wash the strainer before
beginning TO wash the dishes. Put
the silver In a pitcher filled with
warm, not hot, soapy water and allow
it to soak while scraping the dishes.
Do not soak knives with pearl, bone
or ivory handles, but put them aside
and wash and wipe them, few at
time, so that the handles do not go
in the water. Fill the milk and cream
pitchers, whipped cream bowl, ice
cream dish and egg dishes with cold
water.
Arrange the glassware where the
dish pan is to stand, then the cups and
saucers, pitchers, silver, etc. The
plan is this: To place the cleanest
dishes nearest the dish pan and
grade them from the pan, until those
most soiled are farthest away.
AS the food is brought from the
dlning-room send it Immediately to
the kitchen that it may be cared for
there, and may not be in the way in
the pantry. There should be a spe-
cial receptacle for all solid table
refuse. The liquid waste should be
poured through the tin strainer in
the sink. At the end Of each meal the
garbage must be emptied into the
garbage bucket out Of doors. In sum-
mer, to prevent foul odors and insure
perfect cleanliness, the bucket should
be frequently rinsed with solution
of chloride Of lime or other good dis
fnfeetant.

The Presidents Cheap Suit.

London Chronicle.
The World interviewer found this
weeks celebrity, Hon. Robert ).
Wynne, quiet at his home in the Amerl-
can consulate general in the city. The
business manager of the American in
London had carried the freedom OF
the great republic into the region OF
black coats and silk hats, and on
sweltering summer day frankly wore
a light suit of Holland, reminiscent OF
the Dutch Republic that gave the ear

Mr.. Wynne dresses in good company.
He looked down at his cool suit with a

SEASONS FASHIONS.
A Lovely Gray Chiffon Wolfe and
Vogue Of suplioe Waist and
Short Sleeve.

One of the prettiest dressy gowns OBJ
served this season was built Of silver
gray chiffon voile, deliberately embroid-
cred in broderie Anglaise. The waist
was open in the front, showing sur
plice vest entirely composed of narrow
Valenciennes edging invisibly Joined.
There was q collar and guimpe of all
over Valenciennes. A narrow silver
braid edged with narrower black velvet
outlined the voile waist and trimmed
the top of the collar. The high girdle
Of gray satin was trimmed with little
bows Of the silver and velvet braid, and
the same braid decorated the edges OF
the lace sleeves. The skirt was un-
trimmed, save for the broderie Anglaise.
The surpnce waist is the waist Of the
season, and next to this in popularity
comes the draped bodice. The draped
sleeve, shirred In the inner seam and
sometimes In both seams Is a great
favorite. The soft and clinging fabrics
which every one is wearing lend them
selves we'll to draped effects. A Powered
foulard In mauve tones was made with
q draped waist, plain In the back and
showing a bolsro effect in front. The
fronts Of the waist were fulled in the
under-arm seam and brought together
In the center, where they were gathered
into a jeweled buckle, dull silver and
amethyst. There was an underwaist Of
white lace.
Practically all sleeves are short, eth
or elbow length or terminating several
inches above the wrist. Many varieties
of lawn and lace undarslseves are sold
to wear with these short sleeves, and
one may be as extravagant as she
chooses In the matter Of these dainty
accessories. Some of the imported
guimpe and undsrsleeve sets are in
credibly expensive. On the other hand
many pretty sets are to be had for very
small sums. Clever women will not find
the sets hard to get up at home. Bits
of real lace may be utilized to good eff
feet. The finest Of tucked lawns are
to be had by the yard, and so little ma
terial is required that quite handsome
materials may be afforded.
