Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it 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.

SUFFERED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
With Eczema-Her Limb Peeled and

Life Saved by Cuticura.

Il have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for bad case OF
eczema on my leg They did their best
but failed to cure it. My doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off. AT
this time my leg was peeled from the
knee, my foot was like a piece of raw
flesh, and l had to walk on crutches
! bought q set of Cuticura Remedies
After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg was cured and the new
skin came on. The doctor was sur
prised and said that he would use
Cuticura for his own patients. Ihave
now been cured over seven years, and
but for the Cuticura Remedies
might have lost my life. Mrs. ]. B.

Afraid of Results.

Louise spends a great deal of time
in the room of a favorite aunt who
lives with her parents, but the child
is not yet up in the mysteries OF the
toilet. Her aunt recently purchased
some of those hair ornaments popular
ly known as rats"
These Louise did not behold until
one day she saw her aunt remove sew
eral. The child flew out of the room,
screaming at the top of her voice to
her mother:
Mother, mother, Aunt Nell is I'M

The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch 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.

Tho judges InkweII.

Judge Boyd, of the Irish bench, kept
a supply of his favorite "pizen" on
the desk before him in an inkstand of
peculiar make. When he wanted a
sip he took it through a quill pen,
while counsel professed entire ig-
norance of the little maneuver. Tell

witness, "were you drunk or sober?'
Quite sober, my lord" replied the
man. And his counsel added, with a
look at the inkpot: "As sober as a

The Most susnicious Ever.

Henry Clews, the banker and au-
thor, was talking at the Union club in
New York about a certain financier.
"No wonder the man is SO success
full" said Mr.. Clews. HE is the most
careful, the most suspicious fellow
ever heard of. In fact, he reminds me
of Staffordshre farmer my father
used to tell of.
1T was said of this farmer that,
whenever he bought herd of sheep
he examined each sheep closely to
make sure that it had no cotton in it. u

Senator Tillman was taken seriously

at Washington. and after two days at
Clemson College he went to his home
at Trenton, complaining of the heat.
That night ne had an attack evidently
due to hard work and the unusual heat
which produced nervous trouble similar
to that from which he suffered three
years ago, when he consulted with spe-
cialists in Philadelphia who found no
signs of organic disease. After short

panic is still matter Of dispute But
this much is certain, those scenes or law
lessness, recklessness, frenzy, theft, re-
pentance and suicide were not OF the
peoples making. This much more IS
certain, it was the deposits of the people,
the small earnings of those of moderate
means which were used to stay the
frishtful disaster inaugurated by the dar-
ing and recklessness of those leading
business men. 1t was the revelry of the
chosen few. While the great mass OF

attention to this disturbance on the roof

have been a holocaust of indescribable
ruin from ocean to ocean.

of artless demagogue which inveighs

which arraigns corporate wealth honestly

western world has ever known. involving
questions which reach down to the very
foundation of government and upon the
proper solution of which depends the wea,
or woe of 90.O00.OO0 of people-a struggle
calling for courage as rare and patriotism
as exceptional as any since this old ship
started on her voyage. the Industrious
disciples Of that old school, true to their
traditions. cursed with the same want
of faith, are telling In the same old tones
of the fearful consequences which never
happen.
But when the test and trial are passed
and only the large outlines of today's
history are given again, 1t will be rewrit-
ten upon another heroic page that In

ROCK CREEK PARK
BILL FOR ADDITION PASSED BY
SENATE YESTERDAY.

Senator Scott of West Virginia, chair
man of the committee on public buildings
and grounds, stole a march on Senator
Kean of New Jersey yesterday afternoon
just before the Senate adjourned by
bringing up in Mr.. Kean's absence the
Gallinser bill to acquire land in Hall and
Eivans subdivision Of Meridian Hill in
the District for public park and getting
II passed without dissenting voice. The
other day when this bill was reached
on the calendar. Mr. Kean prevented it
from being considered on the ground that
it carried too big an appropriation.
The proposed park is to include the land
between Euclid street. Columbia road or
10th street. w street or Florida avenue
and 10th street extended. containing in the
aggregate $4,000 square. feet approxi-
mately. To pay for the land and the
improvements thereon $3.50, 900 is appro-
priated.
Another bill from the public buildings
and grounds committee got through easily
yesterday afternoon when nobody was
looking. This was the GaIlinger hill
for one-hundred-acre addition to Rock
Creek Park, to extend the park to the
naval observatory grounds. The exact
boundaries of the proposed addition have
been published in The Star. An annro-
priation of $4,000 is carried in the bill.
Both of these park bills passed the
Senate last year and were held I'D in tho
House.
A third Gallinger bill got through at
the same time. This is the bill amand-
ing an act to provide for the extension Of
Ne" Hampshire avenue. The amend
ment strikes out the provision for
straight extension and provides instead
for an extension in accordance with the
highway plans for the CITY
