TO RENovATE OLD GOWNS.
Steaming and Ironing viii Be Found
to Work Wonders.

Dressing, sponging and putting on
new finishings will really do wonders
for last years gown. Just as the best
cloth dress in the world would not
look well We're it not pressed, so
steaming and ironing will spruce up
the old. Try 1t on one and see.
Take an old skirt, begin to rip at
the waistband, and unpick enough to
allow 1t to lie perfectly fiat; then ar
range an ironer's dress board OF two
chair backs. get basin of hot water
and little liquid ammonia set in the
seat of the chair where 1t will be
handy.
Next get piece of cloth-any sort
will do--such as tweed or covert
coating. Cut It absolutely yard
square or less and have three or four
very hot irons at the fire. These are
the most important, as they must just
be under scorching point, and stiff
clothes brush will be needed.
Having collected all the requisites
and spread the dress over the board,
dip the piece OF cloth in the water and
wiring 1t like a patch over the dress
smooth 1t down and iron quickly with
the hottest iron.
As soon as the iron has passed over
the whole surface of the patch tear 1t
quickly off and, while the cloth below
is steaming, brush up the nap with the
clothes brush and leave 1t while you
proceed to do the next square of the
skirt. repeating the same process un.
til the entire garment has been ironed
in this way.

with its management has been how to

The company's payments TO policy

interesting to note that this amount
was almost equally divided between
payments under policies maturing by
death and payments made to living
policy holders. Thus, while death
claims were $11,1S0,626. the amount
paid for matured endowments, annu-
tiles, trust fund installments, for pur-
chased policies and for dividends was
$l0,4S0,l35. Modern life insurance, as

braces a wide field, and covers many
