HOW to Make IndeIible Ink.

Indeiible ink for marking linen may
be easily prepared at home by putting
two inches of lunar caustic in an ounce
bottle and filing the bottle up with
good vinegar. Be careful that the bot
tie is perfectly clean or the result will
not be satisfactory. Cork tightly and
leave in a sunny place for two days
before using. In using indelible ink it
will be found more satisfactory to
write on the goods if the following
preparation is first used: Put in clean
bottle a scant dessertspoonfu Of salts
of tartar and a lump of gum arabic the
size of hickory nut Fill the bottle
with rain water and stand in sunny
place for a couple Of days before using.
TO use, dip cameTs hair brush in the
gum liquid and paint over space on
the linen large enough to contain the
initials or name desired, then allow it
to dry for at least twenty-four hours
and iron before using the indelible ink,
Always use new pen and dry in the
sun; if possible.

The Foe Of Good Roads.

The village Of Crawford, N. J., plans 30
prevent automobile ''scorching" through
its streets, to the daily menace of it's inhab-
liant, by erecting at every crossing bumpers
which can be passed safely at modern
pace, but which will practically prevent
record breaking.
A grange in Hohokus, n. j., has taken
strong ground against the improvement Of
the Franklin turnpike, which is highway
much used BY automobiles going to Tux
edo.
The end of the cycle of the good-roads
agitation is in sight. All the elaborate
arguments about the value of macadam
10 the farmer and the Yillager fail before
the greater need OF representation. The
country resident of ten years ago wished to
live on a good road. The country resident
to-day in region infested by automobiles
may wish to live near good roads, but he
prefers the road that passes his own door to
be bad enough to prevent overspeeding.
He will even pay taxes to make it bad by
erecting distractions.
The automobile as it is used to-day is
killing the benefcens good roads move
ment IN. Z. World.

How to Reach a Publisher.

The road to publication lies all the
way uphill to every new author who
has not powerful friend at court in
the publisher himself or in an infuen-
tial professional reader" says the
Omaha World Herald. The statistics
dealing with the number of new manu-
scripts, cast annually like so much
grjst into the hopper of every publish
ing house, is startling to the general
reader. The percentage of accepted
manuscripts is so small that the tyro
In authorship unless exceptionally
stout hearted is discouraged to despair.
Descending to details, if you have
something really worth writing, some
thing that puts the strong necessity of
utterance upon you, set it down in
nervous pure English. revise and re-
write until you can make it no better,
have the manuscript typewriter, lay it
between two stiff pasteboards (rolled
manuscripts are never read and send
by express to a publisher who has the
reputation of bringing out good novels.

So many are annoyed with trouble
some calloused spots on the bottoms Of
the feet. This can be very easily
helped, if not entirely cured, by using
q piece Of rough pumice stone, saving
