WASHING
EN- RROIDERY.

Mercerized cottons. especially the
white, wash better than embroidery
silks. No matter how good a silk you
buy it will not stand having soap
rubbed upon it. Hot water is equally
injurious. So is ironing with a too
hot iron.
Make a thick suds of warm water
and pure soap and rinse the pieces to
be washed. Squeeze through the hands
and do not rub on a board.
Rinse in clear water Of the same
temperature as the first. Squeeze out
as much as possible of the moisture
with the hands and do not rub on a
board. Pull into shape and roll in a
thick towel to absorb the excess wa
ter. Then take a smooth piece of
damp muslin and place it over the
back of the embroidery and do the
ironing through that.

METHODS.

My Dear Sir: Please allow me to
compliment your magnificent article
in last issue of your magazine re-
speeding the modern methods of For
eign Missions. Would to God more
OF our prominent and gifted writer's
would denOunce, as you have been
doing, this curse to the deluded and
prlest-ridden common people of
America. The poorer class are the
ones that suffer under this unchris-
tlan, ungOdly and fanatical board sys-
tenn of Foreign Missions so prevalent
nowadays.
Of the denominations that practice
this modern method of Foreign Mis-
sions, [ have noticed that the poor
pTeacher-say, country pastors, or
circuit riders are the principal vic
tins of this ungodly practice. They
are nothing more than beggars for
the pie hunters of their denomina-
ton.
l insist that you keep pumping
them until the people begin to "sit
up and take notice. Your untiring
effort in exposing such rottenness will
ere long, think, bear fruit latter it's
kind" Wishing you and yours much
prosperity, l am,
Sincerely yours,

Dear Sir: AS an exponant of polit-

must say that | like your methods
exceedingly we'll | used to think
that you were too hasty and harsh in
your excavations of our leading pol
ltlclans, but have come to the con-
cluslOn that much, if not all, of our
natures nave been caused by that of
holding the hounds and running with
the hare. That idea of fooling 'em
to reach the goal Of political aspira-
lions has about run it's course Not
toollng all the people all the time
IN the opinion of the writer is verify
ing itself these latter days Old Mr..
Peepul is waking up to a better
sense of duty and obligation, and it
appears that the season of revolu-
ton and reformation is fragrant for
good harvest in the next National
campaign. SO l feel that your
sledge-hammer ticks are suspicious
for such an event. Nothing like
judgement and doing at the right
time, for good results there is moth
ing better than tapping that fellow
you catch holding the hounds. Show
him, Comrade Tom, that there is one
sentinel that discerns milk from
cider, that knows loyalty from by
pOcrisy, that understands the read
ing, writing and ciphering of the
most astute demagogue or politician
The whole armOred soldiery is the
need now for consumating a great
victory in our long-fought political
warfare. The outlook seems that
this kind is coming from all creeds
of political affinity. So keep the clar-
ion notes of The Jeffs high up in the

OF INTEREST TO ALL VETS.

Dear Mr. Watson: | am with you
heart and soul in your demand that
the "Old Vets" in the Soldiers Home
be given better treatment, but the in
humanities practiced upon the few
old poor and helpless men in that in
stitution pales into utter insignific-
ance in comparison with the way the
Hoke Smith administration has
treated the old soldiers of this state
in the matter of service pensions
When was the amendment to the
Constitution to grant these old men a
service pension adopted by the people
Of this state?
Why and in what way was it side
tracked and lost sight of in the next
session Of the legislature? Have you
analysed the bill passed at the last
session Of the legislature and COM
pared it with the INDECENT pension
act? If you have not, please do so
and note the difference in the list of
