Best for Biscuits

"A prominent teacher in one of the Do.
mestic Science schools in Mississippi
writes that she is using Cottolcne with
excellent results. She says:
For biscuits Cotto1ene In all thai
could be desired. The biscuits are light
and faky, with none of that disagree
able odor often found in foods short
ened with lard. Cottolene is also an
excellent medium for frying croquettes
and doughnuts. Tt gives them clean,
crisp, brown crust"
Other noted experts, such as Mrs.
Rorer and Marion Harland, have given
similar testimony to the merits of Cot
to1ene. 1t not only gives better results
than lard but is much more wholesome
and economical as well.

istence have you observed that when a
Ewing example of dignity is called upon
he is never hard of hearing!
Dignity is not an art, in the sense of
an accomplishment, but rather an ar
tifice underlying the science of decep-
ton. it is badge of fraud and should
be indictable under the law with other
false pretenses.
It isn't any more natural for man
to. be dignified than it is for him to be
born with a wooden leg. The much
dignfisS man always has some cnara c.
teristies weakness that he is SO afraid
will crop out that he can't be natural
anyhow.
Then, again., dignity and friendship
don't mix. If you want to see the
good qualities of fellow you must
get close to him. You can't warm an

BEST THIN BILE.

There are some things not of COM
mon knowledge that the embroiderer
in silk will be glad to learn. one is
the use of an aluminium thimble i'm
place of the silver or gold one. The
steel or the silver OF gold thimbles are
worked into shape, and this causes
the silk to catch on them, to the an
noyance of the worker. The aluminium
thimble is pressed into shape and
therefore has no metal projections
Use a large needle and the silk will
pass through the cloth easier.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
REMOVING STAINS.


Removing stains is one Of the prn-
cipal occupations when one goes on
the round of renovating. Stains of
all styles and varieties will meet the
eye on housefurnishings as well as
clothes, and it is well to have in mind
a few suggestions that have been tried
and found practical.
In case of mildew give the discolored
spots an application of common soap,
followed by one of starch rubbed in
thoroughly. Lay the article i'm the sun
for several hours and then carefully
wash. 1t is said that rubbing glycerne
over peach stains on the table linen
two or three days before washing, will
cause the stains entirely to disappear.
Pour boiling water through fruit
stains, with the material stretched
across the top of pan or other yes
sci. Wash out tea and coffee stains
in cold water. Blood stains may be re-
moved if the stained article is put tc
soak at once in cold or tepid water
Ink stains may be removed by an APP
plication of equal parts of citric acid
and cream of tartar, melted on plate
Mix and rub over the stains and then
wash oln-carefuHys In almostali cas-
es the ink win disappear at once with
out injury to the color.
If garments stained by tar or wagon
grease are first washed in cold soap
suds the stains will be eradicated
White dresses can be freed of grass
stains by touching the spot with al
cohol before washing. For pitcf
stains, first grease with lard and ther
use soap and cold water. TurpentnC
will remove these stains.
Iron rust stains are sometimes caus-
ed by n chemical action Of soap ant
hluing when the clothes are not prop
erly rinsed but whatever the cause they
may be removed by applying salt ant
lemon juice to the dampened spots and
