 When Colonel George Washing ton first met Martha Custis she was l dashing widow, yet in her twen. ties. beautiful, charming and wealthy. The Father of his Country promptly fell in love with the lady, and as promptly laid siege to her heart, His woo ing was speedy. The gallant Colonel was not exactly an amateur n the art of love making. He at least had the experience of great mistakes to profit by. For history records the fact that there were four ladies who declined the golden opportunity to share the heart and the home and the glory of the afterwards greatest Amer can gentlemen.

J. Some one asked for a remedy for
chiIhlains. Here is simple cure: Cut
an oaion in two. put table salt on the
cut side. and rub it upon the afflicted
part Do this a few times and the cure
win be effected.
2 Many constituents" ask how TO
clean draperies. / use sawdust and am
monia. Put the sawdust into a tub and
pour in enough household ammonia TO
soak it TO the bottom. Beat the dra-
peries or rugs free of dust, put them into
the sawdust. and with a small whisk
broom rub the mixture well into the
articles TO be cleaned. The dirt viii dis
appear at once. Hang out OF doors to
dry and air.
3. To clean lace, get a large paper bag
and put the laces into it, Pour in a
quart or more Of Indian meal and shake
the bag up and dOwn-not hard, but
steadily-for some minutes. DO this sew
eral days, and four or five times a day.
I cleaned a handmade hat in that way
and IL came out as white as snow.
4. Get rid of water bugs and ants
weevils, and reaches by washing shelves
and floors with borax. / live in an
apartment where there are twenty-six
families and I have not had a bug Of
any kind for years. I also clean my car
pets every Friday with bOrax. and never
find a moth. I sprinkle bOraX in my
packing boxes when I put away woolens
and feather pillows, using it literally,
and the moths never toucn them. Tur-
pentine is good for washing woodwork
and floors in closets and wardrobes
Moths will not live ~ a place that has
