WAYS TO UTILIZE
THE OLD LINEN

There was time when the logical
thing to do with old linen was to make
lint and bandages of 1t. But now that
cheap antiseptic sickroom supplies are
available nobody thinks of scraping lint
and rolling bandages whenever a table
cloth gives out. There are a good many
things to do with old linen however, and
good many ways of keeping it from
growing old. too
Old tablecloths can be neatly darned
wherever worn places are apparent. If
they are darned before the threads are
actually worn through they will last a
long time after they are mended Dim
ner cloths that are worn past darning
can be cut down for breakfast and lunch
con cloths or else made into cloths for
the kitchen table. They should be neatly
cut and carefully hemmed. as their life
in this second form will sometimes be as
long as their life as dinner cloths was
Sometimes partly worn cloths are in
good enough condition to make ii worth
while to cut them up and hem them. TO:
breakfast and luncheon napkins They
can also be made into tray cloths and
carving cloths. The making over OF table
linen should always be done with care
and neatness. as untidy table linen, even
If it is old. is inexcusable.
Pillow slips that are worn at the edges
slips to use on smaller pillows. If there
are no smaller pillows the old slips can
be rehemmed and then heightened with
band of insertion, the width of the
hem cut of set in. When hemstitched
hens on pillow cases AMI sheets wear
they can be cut off and hens can be
stitched on by machine. Drawnworked
linen that has become worn can be made
to do longer service IL the worn drawn
work is covered with strips of insertion
opd tho worn part Is then cut away be-
meath the Insertions
Old sheets worn in the center-where
they do generally wear ffrst-can be made
useful in this way: Cut out a strip
down the center wide enough to include
the worn spots. overland the two selvage
edges together to make the center of
sheet and hem the two raw edges. The
seam down the middle. II 1t is neatly
made. will be hardly noticeable and
sheet made over in this way will wear
for a long time. because the strain will
be brought on a part hardly worn before.

A DAILY HINT TO
WORKING GIRLS
Can Live Alone :?

l have a letter from a girl who Is
cashier in a New York store and who
wants my hint as to the practicability
of living alone in the city. This is what
she has to say:
"Dear Jessie Roberts, wish you could
give me a hint as to whether it would
be wrong Of me to leave my present home
and live by myself I'm living with my
uncle and aunt and two cousins, and l
nav a good rate for board. They mean
to be kind. but they cannot leave me
alone and cannot seem to understand
that I have any sense at all. am away
at my work all day. and my life is very
different from theirs, for my cousins DO
not work They are fond of society and
have lots of engagements But because
/ work, they think must have no amuse-
ments, that l should get to bed early
every night SO as to be fresh next morn
ing. and they make fuss IL l have an
engagement with any friend or mine es-
pecially If it is some one from the once.
Now. would be much better rested II
I had a good time every now and then.
and / want the privilege of entertaining
INV own friends without constant criti-
cism. Yet if l speak of going to board
in some place where l VIII De ihdepend-
ent. they are awfully shocked and seem
to think l would disgrace the family.
PM / am quite old enough to know how
TO take care of myself. and since my
life Is so different from theirs ! think
it would be better to separate. for they
will never try to see my point of view.
Yours. D. IA.
think B. NJ. will be doing the best
thing in the world to go and live in
place of her own. She is evidently
sensible girl. and can support herself
without difficulty. and there is no use
suffering constantly from the fault-fnd-
ing and restrictions of a family who are
not close enough to really understand
and sympathize. There is no dimcuity
in finding a pleasant place TOT hersei
that will not be expensive, and any girl
who Is capable of making her own living
deserves a chance to choose her own sur
roundings After the first shock the rela-
tiyes will soon accustom themselves TO
the change. and will probably be far
more agreeable when B. NJ goes to see
them JESSIE ROBERTS.

Something had to be DONE. Jerry Musk
rat said so. Grandfather Frog said so.
Billy Mink said So Little Joe Otter said
SO. Even Spotty the Turtle said so. The
Laughing Brook couldn't laugh and the
Smiling Pool couldn't smile. You see.
there wasn't water enough in either OF
them to either laugh or smile, and no.
body knew IL there ever would be again.
Nobody. had ever known anything like 1t
before. and SO nobody knew what to
think or do. And yet they all felt that
something must be done.
What do you think, Billy Mink" ask
ed Grandfather Frog.
Billy Mink looked down from the top
of the Big Rock into the little pool OF
water that was all that was left Of the
Smiling Pool. He could see a dozen fat
trout in 1t, and he knew that he could
catch them just as easily as not. because
there was no place for them to swim
away from him. But, somehow, he didn't
want to catch them He knew that they
were frightened almost to death already
by the running away of nearly all the
water from the Laughing Brook and the
Smiling Pool. and somehow he felt sorry
for them.
Il think that the best thing we can do
is to move down to the Big River. I've
been down there, and that's all right,
! said Billy Mink.
That's what I think" said Little Joe
Otter. There's no danger that that will
go dry
How do you know asked Jerry
Muskrat. THE Laughing Brook and the
Smiling Pool never went dry before"
It's a long way down to the Big
River broke in Spotty the Turtle, who
travels very, very slowly and. carries his
house with him.
"Chugarum. 1 for one don't want to
leave the Smiling Pool without finding
out what the trouble Is.
:. There's nothing happens. you know.
But has cause to make II So.
Now there must be some cause, some
reason, for this terrible trouble with
the Smiling Pool and IL we can find out
perhaps we shall know better what to
do" said Grandfather Frog.
Jerry Muskrat nodded his head Grand
father Frog is right said he. ''Of
course there must be a cause. but where
the Smiling Pool. and I'm sure 1t isn't
here"
Grandfather Frog actually smiled.
"Chugarum.'' said he. "Of course the
cause of all the trouble isn't in the Smil-
ing Pool. Any one would know that"
where it is. them snapped Jerry Musk
rat
I'm the Laughing Brook, Of course"
replied Grandfather Frog.
mo such thing said Billy Mink. I've
been all the day down the Laughing
Brook to the Big River and l didn't find
a thing
Have you been all the way up the
Laughing Brook to the place it starts
from?' asked Grandfather Frog.
Moo, replied Billy Mink.
We'll. that's where the cause of all
the trouble is" said Grandfather Frog
just as il he knew all about 1t. It's the

Purchasing Canned Goods.

fla can Of food is bulged at the sides
or bottom of the can the chances are
that air has caused fermentation and the
goods have spoiled. though il the sides
of the can are pressed I'm one may be
certain that it is good. Ptomaine poison

in the cans from one meal until another.

To Clean a Black Straw Hat.

First sponge with alcohol, and then
brush over with a thin solution of
gum arabic. which gives a vanished
finish as well as a slight stiffness. If the
straw is very dingy. use a good black ink
or a liquid shoe dressing before applying
the gum arabic preparation.

To Keep White Hair Clean.

To dry clean white hair, take strip OF
absorbent cotton and lay 1t over the
bristles Of a wire brush, pushing 1t down
until the bristles penetrate the cotton and
1t lies close to the back Of the brush. A
few strokes Of this over the hair will
leave 1t bright, soft and clean.

ton. Ware also of oily tonics or "bril-
liantines.'' They make the hair sticky
and more unmanageable than 1t may be
naturally.
The hair net Is useful II ones hair
shows profusion of loose ends, but ad-
justing it go the effect Is not artificial Is
an art not commonly understood. Use
only nets composed of the finest hair
and perfectly matching the color of your
own hair. Choose one also that has a
draw string. then slip the net over the
Golf, pull the hair up into a graceful out
line and secure the net with fine hair
pins. With hairpin poke q struggling
curl here and there through the mesh.
and. 10! you may run a race and come
back without your hair disarranged.
Properly fixed, the net is a boon to
those whose hair is easily disheveled. II,
however, the hair losses about in the
breezes picturesquely. by all means avoid
the net.

water that comes down from the Laugh

That's so. l had never thought of
that" cried Little Joe Otter. Il tell you
what. Billy Mink and l will go way up
the Laughing Brook and see what we
can find"
..Chugarum, Let us all co. said
Grandfather Frog.
Then the five put their heads together
and decided that they would go up the

ACCUSES DR.. FRIEDMAN
Physician Says German Misrep-
resents American Experiences.

Dr. Friedrich Franz Friedman In his
efforts TO hold up his own end in the con-
troversy now going on In Germany over
his turtle germ cure is trying TO give
the impression. according TO Or. Harry
Benjamin, that there was nothing unfa-
vorable as 10 his course while in this
country. Or. Benjamin has just received
a copy Of the "Zeit in Bid, in which
DR.. friedman says that II is not true
that most OF the medical profession IN
America were against him.
ON the contrary" says Friedmann'
the foremost and most scientifically edu-
Gated American physicians studied under
my direction and convinced themselves
that the remedy has eminent curative
powers
DR.. Friedman says in his article that
the United States Public Health Service
regarded his tests favorably, and also
makes IL appear that President Taft in
dorsed the turtle germ. because Of his
order 10 the Treasury Department which
resulted in the government tests. The
turtle germ discoverer seems 70 have for
gotten the action Of the Board Of Health
which made 1t a misdemeanor in New
York City TO use his remedy. for he
makes no mention OF the incident
Or. friedman again denies 10 his Ber-
lin readers that he received the Finlay
offer which he refers 70 as the mys-
ferrous million dollars Dr. Benjamin said
yesterday, that he had seen the cable
mesa ges that passed between Or. Fried
man and his brother in which the Fin
lay offer was discussed.

Many Admit Going to Houses
for Quiet Game"

The attempt by Deputy Police Commits
sioner Newburger 10 obtain convictions
against proprietors OF gambling houses
under the Downing law is said TO have
been a failure so far. Twenty persons
subpcenaed as they left houses suspected
Of being gambling resorts were examined
yesterday by tbs grand jury.
Each testified. 1t is said. that he had
gone TO the place to play pinochle They
agreed that they had never seen any
signs OF gambling. nor did they have any
idea who the proprietor Of the house
might be.
Two Of the four places which the police
visited are said TO have closed. and there
seems TO be a possibility OF getting case
against one of the remaining two. The
possibility, II is admitted, Is shSot inc
owner Of the house has told the District
Attorney that he had leased 1t 70 law
yer. II evidence Of gambling is produced
the lawyer may be indicted.
1t is prophesied. however that pinocnie
will be found 10 have been the popular
game in that house also
