HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Sunburn will be less severe IL you
do not wash your face before going
out: rub it with cold cream instead,
wipe of with a soft rag and use
powder; there will be none Of that
heated, burning feeling that would
have resulted had you used water.
II turpentine is put on a burn inn
mediately, IL will stop the burning and
there Will be no pain. Saturate a
piece of bandage with turpentine,
saturate again and again, keeping the
bandage wet for some time.
The work of polishing windows and
mirrors can be made much lighter If
instead Of using wet cloths or whit
ening you sprinkle a little liquid
brass polish in a rag and apply to the
glass, allow it to dry and then clean
off with a soft dry duster. The re-
suit will be most satisfactory,
Wooden garments that cannot be put
away in summer in the regular pack
ing way, should not be hung in a
dark corner, but keep them near the
closet door and have them hung out
in the sunshine every week This
will keep the moths from breeding
and eating holes in the garments.
In cooking meat, the idea Is to
retain the norishment and flavor. The
flavor and juices depend as much on
the method Of cooking as upon the
quality of the meat Boiling water
or strong, dry heat will retain flavor
enclosing the meat in a crust which
will not permit the juices to flow
out

hearing the evidence that the officers
had used any unnecessary force in
bringing the woman to the police
station.
Both policemen testified that Mrs.
Bursler refused to come with them
when they called at her home with
the warrant. AT first Reese went
to the house himself and said he at

Mrs. Bursler's husband was pres.
ent and he informed the Police Com
inissioners that he and his wife die
not interfere with any one in the
ne. ghborhood and he thought, he as ;
citizen. should have proper protection
He did not think the police acted
right In dragging his wife from hel
home as they had. Bursler said tina
IL the officers had notified his wife I,

been there. He said he had recent,
spent considerable money for medica

NEW Cement RATE
TO HELP MICHIGAN
MICHIGAN COMPANIES SAY EAST
ERN TRAFFIC is WORTH
$4,000 A YEAR.
THE CONTEST HAS BEEN IN THE
COURTS FOR THREE YEARS.
Anti-Saloon Men Throughout the State
Report Encouraging Conditions
for the Movement.

The nine cement manufacturing
companies Of Michigan whose annual
output is about 100000 barrels, are
very much pleased over new tarin
rate on eastern-made cement, which
becomes operative March %. The
new rate will be worth about 3 cents
a, barrel TO tie Michigan manufacture
ers, or approximately 100000 year.
The interstate commerce commission
approves the new rate. and the Mich
igan state railroad commission VIII
also officially sanction it.
The new rate will remove the dis
elimination in favor of Lehigh Valley
and other eastern made cements
which, ii is asserted, has existed for
some years. This discrimination,
cement men say, was the main cause
of putting four Michigan cement COM
panies out of business in the past
three years. For little more than
three years a contest has been on in
the courts, the interstate commerce
commission and the state railroad
commission, between the cement
manufacturers and the railroads over
freight rates. This contest now ends.
