Dishwashing Advice.

Among all the monotony OF household
drudyery dishwashing takes the palm. III
the three times day. everlasting conflict
with the family crockery. Most house
keepers think that there is nothing to
learn about dishwashing, but the writer
offers few timely hints that will be very
helpful.
II is the best plan TO begin the prepare
ton of dinner early enough to allow time
70 wash the cooking utensils as they are
emptied Pile in large pan and pour on
some warm water TO which has been
added little ammonia, and they Will
not be unpleasant to wash.
1t Is time saved to have all DISTINGUISHING
accessories within arms reach as one

a dishpan. soap. borax or ammonia. fine
and coarse towels, a dish drainer and a

Put away all food. then prepare the
dishes. Scrape the bits Of food or grease
from the dishes and pile them up, put
ting the dishes Of one kind together,
plates by themselves, with the largest at
the bottom; cups by themselves, and the
glassware and silver in separate piles.
1t is a great mistake to strew dishes all
over the table and sink IL pull them out
as they are washed. To pile them in
order is not simply 10 be neat, but to save
time.

made in the same way. A few spoonfuls

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Nov. 22.-
In the face of death am trying to
do something to put an end to traf-
fic that is sending girls to hell.
This is why Ruth Steele, 10 year old
mountain GIRL said she had come TWEEN
ty miles on cot from her home in
Paint Creek to testify against George
Jordan, Charleston business man, on
trial charged with white slavery in
bringing Miss Steel from Ironton,
Ohio, to this city, where it is alleged
he placed her in resort run by Re-
becca Robinson also under Indictment
Federal authorities allege the Steel
girl was forcibly held in the resort
and under constant threats of Jordan
attempted suicide by taking bichloride
of mercury. Physicians say the CIR
is slowly dying and hold out no hope
for her recovery. She was carried In
to court propped up in an inyalid's
chair and resumed her testimony
where 1t was broken off when she
