Use Hydrogen Peroxide to Remove
Blood Stalns-cream Of Tartar
When Ink Is spIIIed-Proper
Way to Clean Ivory

Hydrogen peroxide is good for re-
moving stains caused by blood, but
mast be used with care. II gravy is
spilled on your table linen or gown,
it may be taken out quickly by the
use Of little peroxide. To avoid
weakening the material this should
be Immediately followed by the use
Of an alkali. II Just removing a spot,
sponge the fabric FIRST with peroxide
until the stain has vanished, then fol-
low with solution of weak ammonia.
IL you have been unfortunate in STAIN
ing a handsome gown or blouse that
cannot be laundered, dampen starch
and place Il thickly upon the stain.
When dry brush on the starch. This
may have to be repeated several
times. Mildew is stubborn stain.
Try immersing the spots first In but
in the usual manner.
1t is difficult to remove ink stains
nowadays, because modern chemical
inks are quite distinct In character
from the old compounds. However,
many suggestions are offered for re-
moving ink. One way is to cover the
stain thickly with cream of tartar,
then hold the fabric over a bowl, and
pour boiling water through It II the
stain is taken In hand at once It will
disappear quickly; II dry and old, It
may need several fresh applications Of
cream Of tartar and boiling water. II
still obstinate, lay the article in the
sun, moistening from time to time
with the same mixture. Lemon Juice
and salt is also often an effective mix
ture. The fabric should be placed in
the sun. Another remedy for ink
stains on white goods is hot tallow.
Dip the spots In the melted talIow, let
it cool on the goods, then brush of
and launder.

back of the bowl is the mark of the

This spoon is the most ancient
known piece of silver in existence
that bears the indisputably authentic
hallmark of the English "Goldsmiths'
Company"
All the earliest spoons have pear
shaped bowls. 1t was not until the

fury that they began to elongate to-
ward the egg-shaped spoon of the

Probably none of the old spoons
equals in interest the Apostle spoons,
which came into fashion in the six
teenth century. 1t was an English
custom at that time for the sponsors
to give these spoons to the children
for whom they made themselves re-
sponsible as baptismal gifts.
The value of these old sets of Apos-
tie spoons will be understood when
some of the prices paid for them are
known. One set sold in 1903 for
$24,500, while another, of less an
Gent date, brought $4,000. A single
Apostle spoon, bearing on its handle

stem the inscription, est. Nicholas,

years ago for the unheard-of sum of
$3450, the most exaggerated price
ever paid for single spoon so far
as can be ascertained
The Apostle spoon shown in the
cut is an Elizabethan spoon of st.
Matthew, the nimbus chased with st.
Esprit. The date of the hallmark is
1860, and the spoon realized $3.50

Bayonet For Thin Red Line.

Several new patterns of bayonets
have been sent to Aldershot for ex-
perimental purposes, with the object
of selecting one that will be the best
adapted for use with the new short
rifles 1t has been recognized that
our troops are greatly handicapped
in this direction, owing to the very
small sword bayonet they have at
present in use, and the new patterns
are in consequence very much longer.
Efforts have been made to keep the
weight of these new weapons down
to the lowest, while increasing their
length to compensate for the reduc-
ton of three inches in the length of
the new short rifle. Among the pat
terms under trial are those in use in
the United States and Japanese arm
les and three cornered weapon very
similar to the old fashioned bayonet
but very much lighter and straighter.
