A Rude Republican.

A western congressman who goes
abroad each year tells of the militant
republicanism of an American he met
in Brussels last summer. This man,
1t appears, was a merchant in a small
town of Indiana. One morning they
were out for a ride, and as they passed
through the gates of a public park
their equipage passed that of King
Leopold, which was leaving the park.
Following the custom, the congress-
man, as did every n else near by,
except the merchant from Indiana,
lifted his hat, whereupon the demo-
cratic Leopold also lifted his hat and
bowed and smiled. The merchant sat
bolt upright looking straight ahead.
Know who that is?" asked the con-
gresham of the merchant. Yes; I
recognized him from his pictures. It's
King Leopold" Then why didn't
you bow to him al l did," The mer-
chant from Indiana stiffened in his
seat and squared his shoulders. II
don't bow to no kings" he said

CARE IN LAUNDRY
PROPER WASHING OF SUMMER
GOWNS IMPORTANT.
Material Will Not Suffer if These
Directions Are Observed-Deli-
cate Fabrics Are Destroyed
by Much Rubbing.

The thin white dress seems always
associated with the idea of summer
and it always. looks we'll, whether
worn by young or old, and moreover
goes with any coloring. Save for very
dressy occasions, these garments may
seem an unwise investment to the
ultra practical woman, as they become
easily soiled: Something of the first
bloom disappears after the visit to
the cleaners and the process of wash
ing is supposed to be impossible,
However, if the washing is properly
done the material need not suffer in
the least. Then the short skirts.
which are worn now, remove one
potent cause of soil, and even the
heavy lace gowns, which have such a
rich effect in ecru and deep cream,
will wash beautifully in borax water
with some good white soap. Women
who expect to have their gowns last
over into the next season will find it
an excellent idea to have the lace
ripped off and washed at the end of
the season before putting it away or
having itVemodeled in the fall fashion,
as the case may be.
This heavy lace should be washed
in boiling water that contains four
tablespoonfuls of borax to a tub of
water. Soap should not be rubbed
upon it directly but should be made
into suds first, and should be good
white soap. The first. rinsing water
should contain one tablespoonful of
borax to tub Of water The water
should be warm and ought not to be
wrung out from the thin materials or
lace; they should be squeezed and
shaken. The heavy lace can either be
pressed on the wrong side with a hot
iron, taking care not to pull or stretch
it out of shape, or it may be pinned
