TIE ORIGINAL INsURGENT

Representative Henry Allen Cooper
or Racine, Wis, is declared entitled
TO the distinction of being the first in
surgent in congress. Mr.. Cooper was
an insurgent before the word ''insur-
gent" came into use. He has been in
congress is years, and he has been
an insurgent 16 years.
Before the "stalwarts" in Wiscon-
sin had Robert Marion La Toilette to
trouble them, Henry A. Cooper of the
First Wisconsin district was inclined

lars. He was elected first to the
F1fty-third congress. Once or twice
en- effort was made to defeat him for
the nomination, and after that they
tried to defeat him at the election,
but he has been returned to each sue

When Cooper went to congress for

THE HOUSEHOLD

than the washing, for unless thorough
~ dry the dust will settle into the
crevices, so after rinsing and drying
thoroughly with soft towel it is a
good plan to place the articles i'm a
cool oven, leaving the door ajar. If only
as a reminder that the dishes are in
side and must be removed before the
fire gets hot.
One of the best home remedies for
removing stains on china is wood ash
es. These ashes are safe TO use, and
any ordinary stains will disappear I'M
der the treatment consisting of soft
ashes shaken on a damp cloth and APP
piled.
When a stain is obstinate a little
dry salt will usually remove it and will
not injure the china. There are how
ever, some kinds of stains that do
not disappear by ordinary means, not
ably the dark color that has settled
into small cracks and the yellow tinge
often assumed by unusued china; also
stains caused by medicine.
When such is the case there is moth
ing that will remove the obstinate
spots but muriatic acid. At the outset
it is best to say this must be used with
caution. At the same time there is no
better agent. If china has been well
fired no harm will result to the ware
or its colored decoration, but if home
fired the china must not be treated with
this acid.
In applying muriatic acid 1t is best
to use a camers hair brush, because
while the acid will not burn the fin
gers. it is apt to injure the cuticle
around the nails. The muratic acid
should be used full strength. and If the
article to be whitened is a dish or
plate the liquid should be poured into
ii. fitting and rolling the acid until the
stains disappear.
Stains caused by running water in
bowls will disappear as if by magic nv
using a little muriatic acid. 1t must
not. however, he poured on marble. on
" porcelain, for It will eat away the
polish on the marble. In purchasing
the acid the commercial muriatic acid
should be secured.

The High Cost Of Living Reduced

Much has been said about the high cost of liv
ing it's causes and the possibilities of its reduction
But little has been said about the most costly leak:
the false economy existing today in nearly every
household.
Much toodstuffs are bought with but ore
point IN view: "How cheap can get it, without
thought of quality Or latter cost. One of the
most serious is baking powder.
Bv the use of perfect baking powder the
housewife can derive as much economy as from
any other article used in baking and cooking. In
selecting the baking powder, therefore, care should
be exercised purchase one that retains ITS orig
nal strength and always remains the same, thus
making the food sweet and wholesome and produc-
ing sufficient leavening gas to make the baking
light.
Very little of this leavenng gas is produced
by the cheap baking powders, making it necessary
to use double the quantity ordinarily required to
secure good results
You cannot experiment everytme you make
cake or biscuits. or test the strength of your bak
ing powder TO find out how much of il you should
use; vet with most baking powders you should do
this for they are put together SO carelessly they
are never uniform, the quality and strength vary
ing with each purchased.

CLEANING OF cHINAWARE.
How to Do II BY Means of Simple
Home Process.

TO keep chinaware bright and spot
less is the desire of every housekeeper
and so the task of washing the best
dishes she rarely intrusts to a servant.
for should the cleansing be done in a
careless way the result will be an ac-
emulation of small stains which will
require treatment bordering on the
heroic to remove.
Hot water should be avoided when
washing fine china, because the heat
is apt to make cracks, just as II will
break glass. To cleanse such china
cupful of soapsuds or thin soap jelly
should be added to a pan of hot wa
ter, and as a precaution against chip
ping or breaking it is a good plan to
fold a dish towel and lay on the bot
tom of the dishpan. For this purpose
there are rubber mats, but thick
fold of toweling will be just as much
protection.
In washing only a few cups and
plates Just ordinary care is sufficient

the china closet and its contents de-
mand special attention, for even
though the pretty ware has been kept
behind closed doors dust will | sift
through and often stains appear on
china when it is unused for months at
a time. OF course it goes without say
ing that only a few pieces should be
put in the bath at time If the work
of cleansing is to be thorough. In

placed carefully i'm the bath a num-

pared, into which a few pieces should
be washed at time. A small old,
soft toothbrush is the best article with
which to clean handles of cups, pitch

China dishes displaying raised pat
terms are veritable dust traps and need
much soaking and scrubbing to release
the CRIME. One cannot be too care
full however. with this kind of ware,

to have been one of the most success
full ever held in the state The attend
ance was large and the comforting of
degrees under the direction of George
T.. Monaghan Of Detroit, past state
deputy and a national director of the

features. The afairs Of the order were
discussed, but the convention proper
was of short Duration, requiring but
half day. Various social features
were arranged 10y the Lansing council
including a big banquet Monday even
ing, followed by dancing.
The Calumet Council Of the knights
of Columbus is one of the strongest in
the state and a large class of candi-
dates were initiated at recent meet
ing. 1t is expected other activities viii
be arranged in the near future. Plans
are being considered for the organiza
ton of a trained choir among the
members of the local lodge, and it is
believed this choir will contribute
much to the pleasure Of the meetings
and social sessions held under the X
of c. auspices.
