The Proper Way to Wash Handsome

The Proper Way to Wash Handsome
Lace Curtains.
Great care should be taken to re-
move all iron rust or mold stains WITH
oxaIic acid before the curtains are wet.
The curtains should be placed in cold
water to soak about twelve hours and
should then be squeezed out and placed
in q fresh lot Of water for some hours,
repeating this until no more dirt comes
out They should then be thoroughly
washed in warm water with plenty of
uoap. After washing it improves the
looks of the curtains to boil them.
They should then be passed through
blued water to avoid the yellow ap-
pearance and afterward dried out OF
doors in the bright sun.
After the curtains are dried they
should be starched. using raw starch
if they are to be ironed and boiled
starch if they are TO be dried in
frame or pinned to the floor.
If the curtains are to be ironed, they
must be rolled in q clean cloth for
some hours, and ifsthey are TO be dried
nv mining out fat they should be
pinned to a sheet and pulled out even
". so that the pattern and shape ap-
pear all right. Ironing should always
be done on board of such length that
the full width of the curtain can be
ironed at once. Moderately hot irons
only should be used, and the curtains
should be kept square as the werk pro-
ceeds. After they have been ironed
the frills. if there are any, should then
be attended TO.

KISSING NOT
AGAINST The LAW
WHERE THE GIRL WHO rs KISSED
RAISES NO OBJECTIONS
JUDGE IN NEW YORK
COURT HAS DEcID-
Ed THE MATTER.
Policeman Arrested Young Man
Caught in the Act, But Was
Obliged to Admit That Girl
Did Not object.

( What a ponderous thing is the law
says the Boston Journal. when il
passes heavy judgment on a thing SO
airy and poetic as kiss! To be sure
in this case the megaphone of human
justice-it was Police Magistrate
Whitman of New York-reverently ap-
proved the pledge and privilege of
affection which had hailed a we'll
dressed young clerk before him. Even
so, the courts and the statues did not
thereby lessen their ponderosity or
dim the shining light of the kiss as a
thing far, far out of their domain.
A policeman it was who sought to
fetter loves salutation, and he did so
thus clumsily:
This here young man was standing
on Second avenue, near Twenty
eighth street, last night, talking to
three girls. Just as l came up he
kissed one of the girls. So with that
/ tells him to move on, and he tells me
he amt doing nothing against the law,
and runs him in"
Did the young man deny it? Did
he try to prove an alibi? Not on
your life, He had tasted of that kiss
and he knew how far it was above the
awkward reach of police court. So
he traverses the cops poor testimony
with this:
your honor, wasn't drinking and
wasn't disorderly; the officer will
tell you that. / was standing there
with my lady friend, when he told me
to move on, and ! wouldn't do it. I
did kiss her, but there's no law that
know of against kissing girl IL she
doesn't object"
OF course, the whole case fell to the
ground right there. But the earth
trodden Judge made one feeble effort
more to bring this ethereal greeting
within his ken by asking: Did the
girl object?" The policeman was
bound to admit that "she kind O. liked
it." Then the judge, to prove how
poetic thread still runs through the
bloodloss statutes Of the state, de- |
clared: The young man is right |
ut is easy to imagine his Eliza-cross-
lng-the-ice look as he spoke, It's no
crime to kiss girl in a New York
street If she doesn't object"
Well. the Judge did his best. He
put the law on the right side, anyway.
But here in Boston we may be par
