How to Wash Ribbons.

The washing of ribbons is not al
ways attended by the best results. The
following is a milliner's method and
most successful: Put the ribbon into
a basin of warm water, rub on some
good white soap and wash as you
would anything else. While still wet
iron on the right side with hot iron
and when dry rub between the hands
as if washing it until all the stiffness
is out, then iron again to remove the
wrinkles. When ribbons are washed
in this way it is difficult to,tell them
from new.
Nearly every woman knows from
experience how difficult it is to wash
successfully a crocheted shawl and
have it look fluffy and in prime condi-
tion when dry. One woman made
triumphantly successful experiment.
She put the shawl into pillow case,
tied a string around the top, and then
washed it in plenty of soap and hot
water.

Beautifuf BIouses.

Surplice-cut blouses. leaving the
throat bare or worn with transpar-
ent guimpe and collar of lace. are liked
for summer frocks, but though charm
ing they are not SO youthful as the
blouse frilled to some sort of yoke and
fastening in the back, and they should
be reserved for the older girls. Here
again we often find very heavy en-
broidery, applique or band insertion
bordering the surplice, while the rest
of the frock is trimmed lightly and
fluffy in valenciennes insertion and
edging. Heavy embroidery insertion
scalloped on both edges and with val
enciennes frills bordering the scallops
is liked for the surpiice borders and
may be used, too, upon the sleeve and
as heading for skirt flounces.

For Lovers of Luxury,

An example of luxury is dress OF

deeply square collar traced closely

with pale blue bows. Over this should

pink roses and tied with black velvet

resting place.
1t was a had homecoming to those
who regarded Dom Paul as the leader
of their race-rendered even more sad
by the present aspect of South Africa.
The brave old man had struggled hard
to make the land white mans land
and his success was undeniable until
the English coveted his republic. And
then came the dreadful war, with its
price that staggered humanity. That
war England proclaimed to the world,
was fought in the interests of ad-
vanced civilization. Yet today the
labor of South Africa is not white,
nor is 1t free. 1t Is not even black.
Coolies have been imported from
China to work the mines and serve
the capitalistic class. which has no in
terest in South Africa beyond the
wealth of Its mines. They have dis
placed the blacks. Indigenous to the
soil. and the whites. who hoped to
build up Caucasian civilization in
South Africa. and they themselves,
mere prisoners in compounds, with
every shred of liberty gone except the
right OF quitting work when their con-
tracts expire, are slaves in everything
but name.
But Dom Paul is at rest. He heeds
not now. The iron entered his soul
when his beloved republic collapsed in
ruin. BY the side OF his wife he sleeps

from Europe. 1t has also been dem
onstrated of late years, especially, that
despite the higher wages manufac-
tured articles could be produced here
more cheaply than elsewhere and put
In successful competition on the mar
kets of the world. The reason lies, Of
course. in the greater productive abil-
ity of American workmen.
A number of American manufacture
ers are now demonstrating to the sur
prise and Indignation of English en-
ployers, that it is largely from the
very fact that American workmen re-
ceive better wages that they derive
their greater productive ability. The
American Electrical Works Mt Man
chester, England, have tried the ex.
pertinent Of better wages with benefi-
cial results. The rate of wages in
Manchester for the class of labor thew
employ is nine cents per hour. TIE
American company paid - cents and
asked their men to earn it. The result
is that the higher-paid employees do
double the work Of their poorly paid
fellows.
One result of the experiment is that
the other Manchester workmen are
now demanding that. the American
system be put in operation generally.
They want better pay and are willing
to give better service. They saw the
American plan encourages n man to do
his best, while the English plan, with
domineerlng foremen and blacklist.
discourages them and renders them
unambitious to excel.

that the average horse is shod with too
heavy shoes, and If lighter ones were
substituted the animals could do more
work with less WEAKNESS. Heavy
shoes have no particular advantage ex-
cept for large truck horses ON stone
roads, where shoes wear out quickly.
Even In such cases it is doubtful If too
heavy shoes prove of any value. Ger
tainly for farm horses light shoes are
much more satisfactory. The effects
OF such change are quite noticeable
shortly after they are put on, and in
years time the extra amount of work
that is obtained from horse will more
than pay for the shorter time that
light shoes NAV wear.
