WAYS OF WASHING DISHES
TO MAKE THEM SHINE

Washing dishes 30 they shine requires
intelligence as we'll as care, and it is as
tonfshing how much better a table looks
II the china and glassware are properly
cleansed. The veriest tyro knows that
water must be hot to remove grease from
china and glass, but only experienced
hOusekeepers are aware Of the fact that
cold water must be used first when uten-
sfs have contained food that hardens by
the application of heat For example, to
clean dishes that have held either eggs
or milk. preliminary cool bath is re-
CURED Tor their removal, or cleaning be-

A heavy strip will cling more to jar

true of anything in which granu.ated
sugar adheres.
A housekeeper who has beautiful silver
and glass and a maid who takes pride
in keeping It shining were puzzled re-
Gently because every article came to the
table streaked. Inquiry brought the in
formation that the method OF washing
had not been changed, and that the
streaks came in the wiping Dish towels

the search for unspotted surfaces. Dish
cloths were changed. but all to no pur-

FASHIONS FROM PARIS.

The obviousness of feet. This is a
point which daily grows in Importance.
In England it is ignored, whereas on the
continent 1t Is a we'll recognized detail OF
the latter day toilet, Among women
who make fetish of every trif1e there is
growing pose whereby the long. mar
row foot is brought into >.istinct prom-
nence 1t stands out with particular as-
gressiyeness from beneath the short.
tight trottoir, and indeed. forms con-
spicuous part Of that particular ensemble.
Never since the directOire period mas
there been such attention to the garbing
of the feet as at the present moment. AS
suredly it is the hour of the cordonnier,
who has a scope today for his inventive
genius that has not been enjoyed for at
least two generations. 1t is the exception
at present to see an i'll clad foot; one is
more or less bewildered, i'll fact, by the
plethora of choice. Shoes, boots and
hosiery form a strong triple alliance to
lure the money out of our pockets ana
everything points to continuance OF the
Indulgence.
In the realms of millinery the primary
item Of interest is the swathed VelVet
toaue There is nothing tentative or hesl-
tating about that. Its wear is imperative;
we are not permitted to question It's possi-
blities. 1T Is fact accomplished BOAST

TO plates, etc, after they were removed
from the water. In W.ping. the specks
spread, comet fashion, leaving trails sug-
gestive of grease
This incident is tod to show the i'm
portance of having soap thoroughly alb
sorbed. otherwise the effect will be that
OF dirt. Some hOusekeepers, fearing this
trouble. put ammonia only into the water
but the grave objection to it is that in
order to be strong enough to cut the
grease. without the aid of soap, the water
must be made SO strong that 1t hurts the
skin Of the hands. There will, however.
be no need for disseminating the use of
soap if ii is properly converted into suds
To do this cake is put into a pam
and boiling water or that which is hot is
poured In This process makes suds i'm
mediately. Then fork or other sharp
instrument may be thrust into the soap
and the latter pushed around the water
tablet is then removed and the water
cooled sufficiently so the hands may be
put in.
Dishes cannot be made to look so well
II washed with mop as when rubbed

The order of washing begins with the
glasses, because they contain no grease
Tea cups or non greasy plates come next
and then the silver. If possible, that wat
CT should then be turned out and a fresh
supply prepared for plates and other
china. Wiping must be done as soon as
convenient after the articles leave the
water. and If one person is doing the
work it is better to take out only two or
three pieces at a time, drying those before
removing others from the suds bath.

GORDON SENTENCED FOR LIFE
AND WIFE OF HIS VICTIM IS
EXILED FROM GEORGIA.
..Should Be Grateful It Is No
Worse" Said Judge, Sentencing
Faulling's Murderer.

HUNTSVILLE. Ga. October 1.-FoI
the murder of William n. Faulling, jr..
at INalthourville, this county, Charles A.
Gordon today was found guilty and SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment. Mrs. Helen
F'aulling wife of the slain man, and
confessed cause of the murder, was tried
as a result of her confession of intimacy
with Gordon, and was given her choice
of six months in jail or exile from
Georgia. She chose exile, and before
the Gordon jury returned its verdict was
on the way to Florida.
Rumor that relatives of Gordon would
attempt a rescue should the verdict be
adverse were apparently unfounded, as
there was no demonstration.
Judge Paul E. Seabrook. in sentencing
Gordon. told him he should feel grateful
the sentence was no worse. Gordon
killed Faullng, the widow said, as a re-
suit of her husbands knowledge of her
Illicit relations with Gordon, the slayer
fearing that he and the woman would
be punished.

The Martinsburg Board of Educa-
tion at a meeting last week awarded
the contract for plumb ing and heatir &
appliances for the proposed new school
building to be erected in the third
ward to the Columbus Heating and
Ventilating Company, of Columbus
Ohio, and there had been no little crit
icism passed upon the action of the
board in not advertising for bids and
letting the contract TO the lowest re-
sponsible bidder and thus give the To-
cal contractors chance at least to bid
on the work. We have not heard what
reason the board had for their action
but inasmuch as they.are all good bus
iness men we take it for granted that
they bad some we light reason. The
centrsct amounts to $500 and our lc-
cal mechanics would doubtless have
been glad to make bid on the work
Ifthe contract was let at the instance
of the architect the board would do
well to turn that gentlemen down
good and hard once and for all, for it
may be accepted readily that when
An architect is so active in behalf of
any special contractor or materiel
taat there is something IN it for him.
We dc not say this is the case here but
the Martinsburg contractors, Justly
claim at least an equal chance with
those from distance or give them and
the people their reasons for not doing
SO.
