Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
err strength than other makes.

Hard TO Explain.


Uncle George was an old colored
man who tried awfully hard to be-
good, but 1t was very difficult for him
to keep from stealing. AS he ex-
planned it, II just nachally want to

Uncle Georges latest theft was a
pig. The more he thought about what
he had done the worse he felt. About
the middle of the night his wife awoke
and saw uncle still kneeling by the
bedside in earnest prayer.
why don't you get in bed?" she
asked.
"Oh, let me alone,' replied Uncle
George; Use tryin' to 'splain to

Francis G. Blair, state superinten.
dent Of public instruction of Illinois,
has an original idea. He thinks that
courtship should be taught in the pub.
lie schools. in the interest of a knowl-
edge Of the practical affairs of life.
He thinks great progress could be
made by having children take the
parts or Priscilla, Miles Standish and
John Alden. or by investigating the
loverlike qualities of Enoch Arden. 1t
may be doubted, however, whether
there is any practical need of this.
Most people manage to get through
the difficulties Of courtship without
much instruction. The Illinois schools
would probably get more benefit II
the boys we're given instruction in the
great problem Of how to be grand
father gracefully.

y Birmingham, Ala, Dec. 17.-An ex.
plosion, probably Of dust, took place
in No. / mine of the Yolande Coal &
Coke company, at Yolande, IS miles
from Birmingham, in Tuscaloosa coun'
ty, Monday morning. Ninety men
were checked in Monday for work
Within an hour after the explosion IA
men had crawled out Of the mine, all

Of men In the mines, and whether
they will be found dead. The number
Is placed at between 60 and rs. Two
dead bodies had been recovered be-
fore l o'clock
While officials of the company were
hoping against the worst, the rescue
party was forcing its way into the
mine. But little hope is expressed
that many will get out alive. Little
houses just outside of the mine were
destroyed by the immense amount Of
dust, and timber blown out of mines
A relief Grain went to the scene Mon
day after loon.
Mine inspectors are enroute to the
scene. At the local Office of the 70
lande company the statement Is out
that there will not be many found
dead. The first work Of the rescue
party is giving encouragement.
At o'clock 40 collins are being
prepared to be sent to Yolande. The
rescue party was getting out dead and
injured men right Along.
A message from Yolande at
o'clock was to the effect that out of 90
men who went into the mine Monday
morning, II had been taken out alive
Four were dead and all hope has beer
given up for the others.

The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great i'm
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as a stiffen-
er makes half the usual quantity of
Starch necessary, with the result of
perfect finish, equal to that when the
goods were new.

Rural Spirit of Portland, and a men,
Der of the Oregon commission of the
on-Alaskan-P Pacific exposition to
be held in Seattle in 1909, is in the
city today and tomorrow, attending
the district fair and making ar
rangements for some special wheat
exhibits for the Seattle exposition.
Umatilla county being the leading
wheat county in Oregon, it is the
hope of the commission to secure
the cooperation of farmers of this
county in making a display of wheat
which will place Oregon at the head
of the list of wheat-growing states
at that exposition.
I'VE want an exhibit from Umatilla
county which simply cannot be sur
passed at the exposition. This coun-
ty produces the article in enormous
quantities and We want to make 2
display which will be justly repre-
sentative of the industry here; an
exhibit which will place Umatilla
county prominently before visitors to
the exposition as the banner wheat
district of the northwest" said Mr..
Wisdom to the East Oregonian to-
day.
With this aim in view Mr.. Wisdom
will attempt to have some Special
seeding done by Umatilla county far
mers this fall, for harvesting in 1908
as the wheat crop of that year must
be used in the exhibit in 1909, since
the exposition will open early in the
spring of the latter year.

posed of the following: w. H, Web
