Easy TO RESTORE HAT
HOW WORK OF FREsHENING MAY
BE ACCOMPLISHED.
Washing In Denatured Alcohol VIII
Do Wonders With the Frame
Faded Flowers the Hardest to
Bring Back to Color.

The girl who does not want to spend
another dollar on her hats can do a
surprising amount of freshening. Let
her remove the trimming and freshen
the hat itself. A black hat is easy.
1t can be made to look like new by
washing In denatured alcohol after
busting. The entire hat may be soaked
in the alcohol and while still damp it
ts Strengthened where bent.
The woman who once a week wipes
off black hats with alcohol and also
uses 1t on ribbons Will find her hats
wear much longer.
Colored hats that have faded ere
seemingly hopeless, but a box of wa
ter-color paint, or some Of the p
cial dyes for straw hats. soon restores
their beauty. Soiled white hats can
be ~freshened by bread crumbs-a IA
vorite method of cleaning with many
getting tbickly with magnesia, which
Is kept on over night, One woman
uses the whitener that she put on her
shoes.
Sunburnt hats are hard to freshen.
If good. they should be sent to q
b%leacher; If not worth that, try bleach
ing them at home with oxalic acid, a
t%eespoonful to a pint of water.
Scrub the straw well, then rinse at
once with hot water, followed by cold.
Wipe dry and hang in the sun. While
still damp, press with a hot iron on
the wrong side, with a thin cloth
over the straw.
White feathers and the numerous
aigrettes Of the season may be made
snowy by cleaning in a paste made of
gasoline and white cornmeal, and rims
ing with gasoline alone. or with more
of the paste until 1t shows no soil. II
the curl has come out, hold it over the
kitchen range or curl the fues, a few
at q time, with the back of a heated
silver knife.
Ribbons may be washed In alcohol
and pressed under heavy paper or a
thick cloth while still slightly damp.
Faded flowers are almost hopeless,
but may be freshened by coloring
with powdered rouge. rubbing off the
edges for shaded effects.
Steel buckles can be soaked in coal
oil for six or eight hours. hen pol
ished with fine emery. Jet Is bright
ened by rubbing in alcohol and polish
ing with tissue PAPER. Dulled bronze
and gilt trimmings are difficult, but
may be somewhat freshened by good
silver polish thinned with alcohol In

Lace that will wash should be FIRST
soaked in cold water, then put in a
glass Jar with lukewarm water and q
tiny pinch OF borax and well shaken.
Rinse well In several hot waters,
squeeze out most of the moisture and

BONUSES FOR
THIRD CHILD
PAUL LERoY-BEAULIEu HAS Is
eUED STRIKING APPEAL TO
FRENCH WOMEN IN REGARD TO
REDUCED BIRTH RATE.
speoIal 10 20 journal.

Paris. July 6.-PauI Leroy Beaulieu,
the eminent French economist, has is
sued a striking appeal to Frenchnen
and French women, in which he points
out the grave danger Of the depopula-
ton and the denattonalization Of
France as a result of the reduced birth
rate.
Last year the deaths exceeded the
births In France by almost $4,000, and
the total number of births in 1911 was
263, 900 less than the annual birth rate
during the second period Of the second
empire
M. Leroy Beaulieu declares that the
drop In the French birth rate is i'm
moral. due to the universal wish to
limit the family to the minimum. It
is not alone due to the fear Of the
expense of bringing up children, but
also, he claims, to the pure egotism Of
married couples, who do not wish TO
be bothered by the rearing Of the In
fants.
Three Children the Normal.
The economist has several remedies
for what he considers the threatening
situation for the future Of France.
First, he thinks it is absolutely neces-
sary to teach the Frenchman that the
normal family should include not few
er than three children. This teaching
should begin in the schools, both pub
be propagated as a truth essential TO
the maintenance Of the nation.
Furthermore, he favors the adoption
Of a law, to be applied without ex-
ception, providing that no persn shall
hold public positions or be eligible for
government employment of any kind
unless they have three children.
The need of the third child-that IS
what must be insisted upon through
out France, NJ Leroy Beaulieu de-
clares. He estimates that Of the aver
age ten marriages, usually one or two
bring forth no children, while the re-
naming couples content themselves
with either one or two children.
State Bounties for Children.
As an additional announcement, the
economist recommends the establish
ment of a system Of state premiums.
The sum Of $780, in his opinion, should
be given for each third infant, as well
as for each additional infant. This
premium should be distributed Tres-
pective Of the fortune of the parents.
and millionaires should receive 1t as
well as the poor.
He estimates that $30,000,000 per
year would be the cost to the state of
carrying out this plan. He believes
that these premiums, if they did not
increase the birth rate, would certainly
hinder it from falling, and considers
it very much better to spend the ma
tional money in this way than to dis
tribute it in old age pensions.
Z is better, he says, to suppress the
obi ory pensions and have $4,000 tG
