How TO Care For the Linen Preos and
"a afn Confcnts


its Contents. .s
No good housekeeper neglects the
linen press, and the care Of it is one Of
the most Important Of housewifelE
duties. The best form OF linen press
is narrow cue from front to back, so
tnat when opened all the contents are
exposed to view, with no second row
3 pf things hidden away behind. It is a
serious mistake to keep linen con-
stantly In hot air cupboard, for.
though it is thus always aired and
ready for use. yet it will become dis
c6lored and the edges turn brown If
So kept.
Many people nowadays discard linen
sheets altogether, preferring cotton
zones, while Others, keep them only for
the summer months, using cotton in
winter, as being warmer.
In mending household linen the most
satisfactory way to do is to mend it
/before 1t is sent to the laundry. not
when it returns starched and ready
j for use once more, says the Philadel-
phia Press.
II a thin piece or hole is observed
while the article is in use it should be
put aside and either darned or patched
st the first opportunity.
Tabiecloths invariably begin to wear
Mt the middle and in the side creases
an which they are folded. When this
is the case the edges Of one side Of
the cloth should be turned in and neat
ly stitched to form hem about an
Inch in width. BY this means the
folds in the closh will come in fresh
lines and the place Of the old crease
will have anew lease Of life.
When a cloth iss removed from the
table it should be put into press
and tightly screwed down until want
ed.
If a sheet is hemstitched it should
be done at both ends. If only one end
Is so worked the wear and tear will
come always in the same place, as the
sheet can only be used one way, with
the hemstitching at the top.
Once year it is very good plan to
devote whole day to going over the
linen stock and to make renewals
where necessary.
1t is mistake to allow the supply
of any one article to rurt too low, for
/ The replenishing Of the entire stock at
one time means somewhat heavy
item of expense. 1t is much better to
make periodical additions.
When new piilowslips with buttons
are bought, the buttons should be eX-
amined. If these are Of metal covered
With linen, remove them at pnce. Use
those made by folds of linen only.
Stores which are not in current use
may be wrapped in cloth and placed
on the upper shelves of the press. The
German "hausfrau" keeps broad en-
broidered bands, which she slips
around her spare sets Of linen.

Democratic Congressman Meet in q
Personal Encounter ON the Floor

Of the House.
The spirit of rivalry that for five
years has alternately smoldered and
blazed beween John Sharp Williams,
of Mississippi, leader of the minor
ity, and David D. DeArmond, of Mis-
souri,, leader of the minority oppos-
ition, eliminated in a fist fight Fri
day on the floor Of the House.
The blows Of Representative De-
Almond caused blood to flow down
the face of Representative Williams,
and only the -forcible interference Of
friends cut the combat short. Mr.
'DeArmond bore away scuffed nose.
The immediate cause Of the fight
was the passing Of the lie by De-
Almond to Mr.. Williams, resulting
of a complaint by the former that
the minority leader had broken
faith in ''burying" Representative
Booher, Of Missouri, by recommend
ing his assignment by Speaker Can
non to the committee on coinage,
weights and measures.
According to the statements Of the
participants Mr. Williams defended
his action by declaring that he had
been told by Mr.. .Booker's colleague,
Representative Lloyd, Of Missouri.
that the committee assigned would
be satisfactory to Mr.. Booher.
Mr.. DeArmond bluntly questioned

He didn't put the memorandum In his

AS DANGEROUS AS WHISKY.
The DEVILS kindIins Wood Is the
Deadly Cigarette.

We say, Boys, don't smoke cigar
ettes." Do you ask why?
First-Because cigarettes injure the
mind. The poisonous drugs put In the
cigarette tobacco and the cigarette
wrappers, and especially the poisonous
gas produced by the smoking Of pa
per, and the tobacco together in the
form Of cigarettes make boy dull,
stupid sleepy. and dopey. The boy who
uses cigarettes cannot keep up with
his class in school, and while other
boys are being promoted he makes no
progress, but before long is likely to
drop out Of school because his mind Is
so affected that he cannot study or he
tries to study. Hence he loses his inter-
est in school and sooner or later he
drops down and out.
Second-Cigarettes injure the body.
Cigarettes weaken the action OF the
heart and make it's beat feeble and
irregular. A healthy heart is like
strong pump which pumps the blood
to every part of the body, and bears
with the regularity Of perfect CLOCK.
But when boy begins to smoke cigar
cites the strength and regularity of the
hearts action is injured. Anything
that injuries the heart Injuries the
whole body, hence ought to be avoid
ed. Cigarettes also injure the lungs and
other organs of the body.
Third-Cigarettes injure success In
life. Business men everywhere are
more and more refusing to employ
boy or young man who smokes cigar
cites, as cigarettes make a boy incap-
able of performing the best service.
Hence a boys chances Of getting good
position when he gets through school
are generally reduced If he smokes
cigarettes. The boy who does not
smoke cigarettes will get better po-
sition than the boy who does smoke
