Like most brave and good men,
Geo. Washington had many name
(sakes. This story is about a little
black boy whose mother, cook for
southern family, had named him
Geo. Washington Persimmon s
Jackson. While S'phira Jane
Jackson did the cooking for the
white folks, it was Geo. Washing

mistress baby. Sometimes he
would take the baby out for a ride
on the river banks as their home

III the spring when the ice and
snow melt and the rains come,
the river gets so very full that it
overflows its banks, flooding all
the country roundabout. One
night this little black boy was
awakened by the sound of the wa
ter rushing outside, and he knew
the river had broken over its
banks and might even wash the
house away. While all the family
were looking out for their own
safety this brave little boy thought
of the baby. He ran from the lit
tie cabin where he and his moth
er lived to the big house, and TAX
ing the baby in his arms he ran
out and climbed upon a shed roof.
In a little while the water came
roaring down and lifted the shed,
and SO the little black boy and
the little white baby floated down
the river on their queer raft.
The baby's parents and the
boys mother had been saved byl

and rescued them and brought
them ashore. All day the boy
wandered the streets carrying the
baby in his arms. Late in the
afternoon as ne was going past
a big hotel he heard a voice call,
Geo. Washington Persimmons
Jackson, what yo' been a dom
with dat baby?' And there in the
hotel door stood his mother, and
by her side was the mother of the
baby.
What a joyful reunion they
had! And everybody praised Geo.

so brave and taking such good
care of his little master.

"Never you mind" replied
Algy. Jump into the house
there. I'm tired of this monkey
business. There's no reason I'M
der heaven why you two shouldn't
be one!"
Under the influence of Algy's
overpowering character the two
young people meekly entered the
preachers residence. In a few
minutes Algy had secured a Ii
cense.
MARRY these two," said Algy
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-03-08

to Rev. Cushman Jones, and
marry them Rev. Mr.. Jones did.
On the way back Algy occupied
the front seat in the auto alone.
In the rear seat sat Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry, quite close together, bea-
tific smiles upon their faces.
Huh" muttered Algy to him
self, "I'm glad 1 had my own way.
I've saved those youngsters a lot
of unnecessary heartaches and
sorrow. HUH"
And he threw the clutch of the
car into the third speed.

A.: Use cold coffee. Test
the strength with a small piece of

wish.
2.-You cannot get ink stains
out Of linen except with a fluid
which will eat into the goods If
used too strong. Boil five pounds
washing soda with one gallon cold
water. Add one pound chloride
of lime and stir we'll. Strain
through muslin cloth into a jug
and keep corked. To 10 quarts
water and two cups clipped soap
add one pint of the fluid and boil
the stained clothes. If spots do
not disappear add a very little
more fluid. This will also take
out rust and mildew, but use care
fully.
