Laundry Notes.

To make any clothing extra stiff
when laundering. it is best to dry the
garments first, then run through
starch and dry the second time. Flour
starch should not be used for dainty
waists, since it gives yellow tinge
to them. A mixture Of lump and
gloss starch will be best and such ar
ticles should be wrapped in damp
towels instead Of being sprinkled be-
fore ironing. First iron the sleeves,
then the front, lastly the back and
collar and place the waist to dry on a
hanger made from a rolled newspaper
tied in the middle with a string. This
keeps the waist from creasing by be-
ing hung with other clothes on the
rack. Small starched articles like
cuffs and collars should be dried be-
fore the kitchen fire or they absorb
any dampness in the room and be-
come limp.

extended to Princess Patricia of Con-

as a bridesmaid to a daughter of a
commoner However this may be, it
is asserted that Princess Patricia is
much delighted at the possibility, and
unless royal etiquette intervenes and
says she must not she will be charm
ed to act in the capacity for her very
dear friend. Princess Pat" has a
great capacity for holding her own.

she is doing something which other

In Russia pits for cock fighting are
unknown, but "goosepits" some 60
years ago were common throughout
that mighty kingdom. The effect of
this can be seen today In the geese
which are indigenous to the country,
the Arsamas and the lula varieties
particularly showing to a marked de.

ancestors. The Arsamas gander has a
bill which is entirely different in form
from that of the geese known in any

Violin as a Hair Restorer.

1t is now a scientifically proved fact
that music exercises a great influence
on the growth Of the hair. 1t is with
good reason that great musicians.
such as PagaRini, Listz and Padsrew-
ski, are represented with growth OF
hair which Absalem might have en-
We'd. Science has proved that strinEed
instruments have a favorable influence
on the growth Of the hair. while brass
instruments act in the opposite dirsc-
ton. Every one has probably OBJ
served that bald violinist is as rare
as a bald horn player il common.
Wood instruments, such as the flute,
