 Blood Stains-Soak in cold salt wa ter: then wash in warm water with plenty of soap; afterwards boil
 Grass stains-Saturate the spot thoroughly with kerosene, then put them in the wash tub. Fine ginghams and percales dipped in sweet milk in stead of starch, gives them that dainty glossy dressing they have when new Things You Should know-One quart of sifted flour equals a pound.

HINTS FOR AMATEUR GARDEN.

Dear Editor Social Corner: Most of the annual flowers are started in boxes covered with glass. A small box viii take care of many seedlings of any kind
 Nasturtiums and poppies and four oclocks and pansies can be planted now in the open ground. also African and French marigolds
 II IS more economical to start small seeds Tn box of specially prepared sanay soil. because a very much larger per cent. of them will germinate. Gar den soil hereabouts is so clayey that II. bakes OVer and it is impossible for weak seedlings to break through it. The boX is warmer and retains moist ufe and the seeds will germinate quicker there
 1t IS not too early to set out glad lol or dahlias. It is well to set them With four inches of earth over the crown
 The 8ladiol should be set inches apart and in circles or clusters rather than in straight lines Where they are set as II on the points of a triangle. or in circle they may be held up in groups by a stout cord and do not have to be stalled. They are really house flower and should be cut the moment the first flower is in bloom and be allowed to open in vases. They VIII keep ten days or more thus treat ed
 Dahlias must have room to do well. Pompone dahlias are set 1-2 feet apart and the single feet, while the fancy and cactus dahlias should be given full four feet to do their best.

 Frozen of Maine: Your last letter A Visit to An Insane Asylum, was very nice. I was visiting once in your state and while there I visited 8, Gen. eral hospital and was very much inn pressed by my visit. The whole in terior was finished in white, and ev- erything was spotless.
 MT. Wallace took great pains in showing me the X-ray and explained every detail. I enjoyed that visit i'm mensely.
 Theoda: Many thanks for your nice card. Now I am wondering who you are and if I know you. Will you give me a c1ew? Should dearly love to know who you and Lucy Acorn are. Am going to try to find out.
 I think when any of the Sisters send cards to one another they ought to sign their pen names at least. For I know, if l received cards I should like well to know the name of the sender I shall add Theoda's to my large collection.
 Think it would be nice for us to have some way to recognize each other when me meet.
 Nat: Are you too busy to write, or are you laid up in any way for re- pairs I keep looking for your letters, but don't seem to see any

 To make a straw mating look like new and keep it always fresh in ap- pearance, wipe it over once a week with a cloth wrung out of weak salt water
 1 have found the Waxed papers off laundry soap are as good as beeswax, or better, to rub hatirons over.
 Use white olcloth instead of table cloths for everyday use, especially if you have little ones or hired help.

 If you mix a teaspoon of cornstarch with the table salt before putting the salt into the shaker it will not become damp and cake.
 To brighten the colors in a carpet, use cornmeal. Sprinkle the carpet lightly with it and sweep off You will find the carpet greatly improved by this means.
 Nothing is better for restoring the brightness of polished tables than rub ping them with linen rag dipped in cold drawn Nnseed oil.
 Marks made on the table by hot dishes should be rubbed with paraff1ne This will also remove white marks from furniture.

A HAIR TONIC.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: 1 have given you quite 6, rest. Some one wish ed to know what would help a dry scalp and falling hair.
 Vaseline is recommended as being extra good. and adding a, little of the old-fashioned bitter sweet ointment improves it.
 Now is a good time to dig the roots. The bark can be removed by pounding lightly. Cut in pieces and cook slowly in mutton tallow. l have been using half vaseline and the bitter sweet ointment melted together, once a month this winter, and my hair does not come out nearly ts much as be- fore
 When the scalp is dry I think it needs a tonic to nourish the roots something in the line of an oily na- ture.
 Thanks to some one who sent me q birthday card. The initials were M. M. K

HOW THE GARDEN WORKS FOR
 US

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: The first flower in the garden came the 18th of February-a tiny snowflake that dared to peep up at the sun in mid winter.
 In March came the crocuses and the suuiis and then the narcissus and tulips. followed by the pansies and Hiolers troopiug after in April and the roses and phIoX and pinks and deutzjas and WeigeliaS and day lilies and iris and holly pushing for ward to early development.
 tjov the well established garden produces flowers for Us. We make it ready in the fall for the early spring flowers. and in the spring we prepare the way for the pretty annuals
 The other day I walked over the lot to see what I could find in straYs or self-sown flowers for early Towering, and by knowing the seedlings l picked up five coreopsis plants and fifteen pansies almost ready to bloom, and q dozen and a half of catchf1y and saw bachellor's buttons and silene-white and pink-enOugh to plant half acre
 How flowers do multiply. Twenty years ago I bought three plants Of go1den-glow and now l have to dig out and throw away hundreds of plants every spring.
 Not so many years ago purchased three rugosa rose bushes. and now have over sixty in a border. and have given many away.
 I forgot to mention the sunhower seedlings I saw in the garden. They were too numerous 10 mention.
 Where one knows hosT to manage garden, flowers begin to bloom before the snow is off and continue until aft or the November snoWS come again
 Thanks to all who have remembered me with cards or in their stories.
