Removing Stains from Linen.

Ink stains may be removed from linen
by putting melted tallow on the mark
before washing. Both ink and grease
will come out at the same time.
Should lingerie be marked with yell
low stains where the machine has stitch
ed, this is doubtless due to oil, and may
be taken out by using Misunderstanding
the seams or spots with ammonia before
washing in the usual way.
Mildew may be removed by soaking
the article in buttermilk.
Laces should never be rubbed, but
we'll rinsed in water in which a good
soap jelly has been dissolved.
Kerosene will remove fruit stains on
linen. First wash the article in kero-
some, then wash in the usual way.
Should linen be inadvertently scorched
the following method will restore it,:
Peel four onions and extract the juice.
Mix this with four ounces of fuller's
earth, / ounce of soap and pint of
vinegar. Boil we'll together. When
nearly cold, put on the scorched places
aud let 1t dry in the air. Wash after 10
cold water, and, if necessary, repeat the
process. If very slight scorch mark,
the linen may be restored to its original
Wilderness by placing it out of doors in
strong sunlight.
Stains caused by acids may be remov-
ed by salts of wormwood. The part
should be first wetted and the salts
rubbed In, then rinsed before washing.
Black and white fabrics should be
washed in water in which salt has been
dissolved, teaspoonful to every gallon
being the right proportions.

LABOR TURNS TO TAFT.
ToiIers Scent Danger In the Fallaeies
of Mr. Bryan.

Convincing evidence was furnished
by the conference ut Cincinnati last
week by Judge Taft with Oscar
Straus, secretary Of commerce an! Ia
Dor. and r. V. Powderly, formerly
general master workman OF the
knights Of Labor, that the att!t:;de OF

Secretary Straus announces his ill.,

specific purpose Of exposing some OF
the Bryan fallacies IN regard to labor.
Said Mr.. Straus: The most dangerous
Of these rallacies Is presented in

Of his leading doctrines is II denial OF

Bouts Rhymes.

A game In which each player writes
on q slip Of paper four or more words
that rhyme alternately, as "boy, long,
toy, strong"
The slips are then mixed. Each play
er draws one and must then write a
verse whose lines end In order with
the words he has drawn.
The number of words and the order
in which they rhyme may be agreed
upon before beginning the game, and
the subject Of the verses may also be
given out, thus adding to the difficulty.
The game is French. as the name,
meaning rhymed ends, shows. 1t Is
called "endrelmspiel' in German. The
following verse is, said to have been
written by Horace Walpole on drawing
