UNISON WEED USED
TO BLEACH CLOTHING

The chemist who will extract the
bleaching principle from the common
Unison weed and place 1t within the
reach OF family and laundry use has
fortune in store. It is a well known
fact that there is no better way of
bleaching the family linen dur
ing washing than by putting a few
leaves OF iimsOn into the boiler; but
there IS an objection TO this practice.
as very unpleasant OdOr IS the re-
suit This can be removed, however.
by placing the clothes in cold water
and then boiling them. or by repea ted
rinsing. but al this is trCs-Hl esorne.
and therefore many who know the
value of the leaves do not use them.

Mrs. Josephine Kniffin, formerly Of
this city, who Is In Washington this year
was at wellington at the time Of the re-
cent snow slide which killed over hun
dred people, and for several days was in
imminent danger Of losing her life. 1t
was time OF terror. Friends In Dodge
City received letter from Mrs. Kniffin
this week. She was staying at the hotel
In Wellington and when the danger came
removed to cottage a short distance
away In . more protected spot. The
snow slides at the start were small. One
would come, and perhaps one or two per.
sons would be caught by 1t. The night
Of the terrible slide which took two Great
Northern trains from the track into the
canyon below, Mrs. Kniff1n and friends
had planned to 20 to the traiB, which
was blockaded there, to stay over night,
thinking that 1t was safer place than
the hotel or cottages. Fortunately they
changed their minds. The trains were
swept from sight that night and the hotel
and cottages were left. The big power
house and depot nearby the hotel were
taken below. Mrs. Kniffiu is cousin of
the Martin boys Of this place and lived
