Paint Spots.

A common and troublesome spot is
made by paint. Now, we must first
consider the composition of paints
They consist of lead or zinc, oxide,
pigments and oil. To remove paint
from any fabric you must first extract
the oil and then the solid coloring matter
can be brushed Off Old dried paint
spots must first be softened by the ap-
plication of coal oil an then may be re-
moved in the same manner as fresh
spots. To remove these, imn1erse the
spot for a short time in either naptha or
chloroform and then rub the spot dry,
rubbing on the back or wrong side Of
the fabric Varnish and tar may be re-
moved in the same manner as old
paints. That is, first use the coal oil to
soften the spot and the solvent to re-
move the spots.
Spots made by the accidental dropping
of foods are OF three kinds. They are
either acid, greasy or sticky from sirup
or sugar or a combination of these.
The above directions for removing
grease will apply to any spot containing
grease as one of its constituents, and
the other constituents will disappear at
the same time. For example, greasy
meat stains containing blood stains. In
case of stains from acids contained in
fresh fruits diluted alcohol can be used
as a solvent and little ammonia water
will restore the color.
In cases that are stubborn, where the
fabric is white, peroxide of hydrogen
will remove the spots Wagon grease
or car grease can be removed by using
benzine as a solvent and thick pad of
absorbent cotton to absorb the color
Turn the spot face down, and with a
small piece of the same fabric wet the
spot thoroughly with benzine. Rub with
circular motion, then turn the fabric
over. If the spot is not entirely re-
i moved, get new piece of cotton and
repeat the operation, When all the
stains have disappeared hang in the open
air for an hour and press on the wrong
side with a warm iron.

THE ENCORE HABIT.
New Sims Reeves Turned the Tables

Now Sims Reeves Turned the Tables
on One Of His Admirers.
Sims Reeves, who in his day was &C
cepted as the most celebrat ted tenor on
the concert stage, was so much Of
favOrfte that whenever he sang he was
usually greeted with a hearty encore
accompanied with enthusiastic cheers.
Reeves was very good natured about
the matter, but he made it q rule never
b sing more than one selection when
he felt that his voice was not in first
class shape. He happened to notice
that an elderly man, who turned out
30 be a dealer In hats along the Strand,
London, attended nearly every concert
within convenient distance II Sims
Reeves happened to be on the bill and
generally led the encore brigade. This
halter was a persistent person and Of
ten applauded until he had forced
Reeves to respond to double and triple
encores.
Determined to teach the little halter
q lesson, one afternoon just as dark
was approaching Reeves entered his
admirers store and said, "One hat,
please" naming the particular shape
which he desired. The little halter
didn't recognize the great tenor and
handed out one hat
Good" said Reeves How much

prietor.
Encore" said Reeves.
A second hat was Forthcoming, aAd
Reeves ultimately obtained three "en-
CORE hats. When the little halter de-
handed fl sterling for the purchases
Reeves pretended to be furious.
"Send these four hats to this ad
Dress" ordered the tenor in terrible
tone, but l only pay for one hat Do
you understand? The three other hats
are encore hats. II you make me sing
songs for nothing you must send me
hats for nothing"
The little halter was speechless.-

Psychologists have discovered that
among the ancient Egyptians the invi-
olate preservation of the body was
deemed absolutely essential to the cor
DOreal resurrection of the dead. Ac-
cording to the teaching Of the Egyptian
priests, the living man consisted Of q
body, soul, an intelligence and an APP
pearance called "Ka." Death separat.
ed these four parts, which must uld-
mately be reunited for all eternity.
Between death on earth and life ever
lasting there interviewed q period Of
several thousand years, during which
season the soul performed q painful
probationary pilgrimage through the
underworld. The body in order that q
should await intact the return Of the
soul must meanwhile be guarded from
all corruption; hence the custom Of
smbalming.

MONTENEGRO DANCES.
Tho kOlo 10 a Feature of All Great
National Festivals.


National Festivals.
The national dance of Montenegro u
the "kolo," somewhat similar to the
"horo' of Bulgaria. Both sexes take
part, crossing hands and forming an
unJoined circle. The music they sup
ply themselves, each end Of the horn
alternately singing a verse In honor of
the prince and his warlike deeds. The
"kolo" is always danced at any great
national festival, and the effect Of the
sOnorous voices and swaying ring Is
very fine. Then there is another dance
performed by four or FIVE, usually
youths, to the accompaniment of a
fiddle. the leader setting lot of intri-
cate quick steps which the rest imi-
tate at once. 1t is really sort of Jig
and makes the spectators head swim
If he watches it for long.
l never saw any dances in northern
Albania, though certain Sav artists
love to depict wonderful sword dances,
with beauteous maidens swaying grace
fully after the style of nautch girls.
A casual observer who has seen the
Albanians come into Montenegrin mar
kets or to their great weekly gather
ing in the bazaar of Scutari could
never picture these stern. lean men
dancing or at play. They never smile.
and they look the life they lead, each
clan ever ready for war with its neigh
Dor and absolutely pitiless in the ven
delta. The red Indian is not more
stoical in his bearing than the north
ern Albanian clansman.-Wide World
