When the dirt is re- moved rinse fin two waters and lay on cloth folded several times. Cover out with the hands and iron on the wrong side. dry cloth coming between the lace and the iron. Remove the cloth and iron dry. The face should look like new.
 Narrow lace frills Aiat require wash ing are best. treated without ironing Any Of the average laces, such as val cluny, etc, may be washed in the usual way and then dipped into weak. raw starch.
 After being rolled in cloth until nearly dry they should have the edges or points, as they case may be, picked out by the fingers and dried while in shape. If knife pleating is preferred this should be done while the lace is slightly damp. .either with knife or by pinching into shape with the fin gers.
 Black lace may be restored by dip. ping in weak tea and ironing while damp between two pieces of black crinoline.
 
 A prominent woman, who has to do yearly with hundreds of young women. gives this suggestion as>to one of less conveniences of life.
 "A habit which, like bathing, is not concerned with expense, and yet which constitutes "a great social difference, Is the habit of washing ones face and changing owns gown for dinner. This one is expected to do in the best so- ciety out in the world, so why not in the home, the boarding house, the col lege, everywhere? A large body of ex- perience proves to us that people are not agreeable to each other or to themselvces in the evening unless they have gone through this necessary form. Everybody can make some kfnd of a change, and especially those who are fortunate enough to own two gowns owe it to themselves to form the habit of putting on different gown for din- ner.
 "One should not separate one's self from weil-bred people by personal carelessness in little things. I would not encourage womankind to buy moro than they can afford or encourage ri- valry in dress. But there need be none. Just simply wear the best you have, and be immediately neat. We stimu- late one another by wearing and look ing and acting our best"

ing the largest in that part of the
country.
Mr.. Webber, who will assume the

Secretary Wilson Drops Into Town
and Out Again Unseen-Gone
Up the River.

Quietly and without previous an
nouncement James Wilson, secretary
|of agriculture, was in Wenatchee
yesterday and spent several hours
here before his presence became
known. Arriving on the evening
train from Spokane he made his way
to the Great Northern hotel. 1t was
not known about town that Wenat-
chez had such q. distinguished guest
until later in the evening when he
had gone driving. He returned to
the hotel .about o'clock and went
direct to the boat. He left this morn
ing for trip up the river.
Secretary Wilson is plain unas-
suming man and well along in years.
He seemed somewhat fatigued when
here and this is probably the reason
that he did not make his presence
known.
The object of Mr. Wilson's visit
was to look over the forest reserves
of the state The problem of the
forests is one which the administra-
ton is now seeking to solve. Zone
of the perplexing questions" the
quoted in Spokane to say, sis to get
of the perplexing questions the Sec
retary is quoted as saying, sis to get
the forester to cut down the entire
tree, instead of leaving from two to
four feet ON the stump. Another is
to get him to pile up the limbs after
the tree has been felled, so that they
may be burned to reduce the danger
Of forest fires.
II find that the greatest problem
now to be settled is the reforesting
of the bare places. The foresters
throughout the country have been
very careless in cutting away, with
out reseeding, vast amounts of tim
Der, and the timber of the United
States is greatly threatened. What
We must do Is to reforest."
The chamber of commerce realizes
that they passed up a bet when they
missed the secretary and expect to
eaten him on his return from the
Okanogan.

We Just had to do it-honest!
Yon sae II was this way.

We Just had to DO lt-nOneSt.
You see it was this way.
Rufus, Woods, the proprietor, the
editor, the city editor and the tele-
graph editor of the World, left for
Everett today to attend the meeting
of the State Editorial association.
Before going Mr.. Woods turned to
the associate editor and the advertis-
ing man and said: ''The paper will
have to get along the balance OF the
week without the proprietor and the
editor, but it will have to have city
editor and a telegraph editor, SO you
fellows must double up and one OF
you do the telegraph and the other
hold down the city editors desk.
You'll have to work like the deuce,
but / guess you're equal to it. Get
all the news that is going and don
fail to use all the telegraph that
comes in, every line Of it.
Then he was gone-didn' wait Tor
any comment, or protest or anything.
The two men looked at each other
with questioning eyes.
Who's who?" said one.
Dunno said the other.
-'Tell you what We'll do" said the
first, well draw strawS to see who II

Good enough, lot it go at that,
was the reply.
Then that electrical word, "copy!

phone voice of the foreman, and the
newly appointed editors fell over
themselves getting busy.
The city editor started to pound

replied the city editor.

stenographer. And she knows.
