WHEN WASHING FLtNNELS
For Proper Cleanliness, and to Pro
vent ShrInkage, This Method Is
Recommended.

To wash flannel garments, prepare
good lather of soap in hot water;
when just nicely warm, plunge in
your fiannels and work the garments
up and down. backward and forward
with the hands, paying special atten-
ton to any soiled edges or ether
places. Scrubbing must be avoided,
and no soap must actually be rubbed
on, as this will induce shrinkage
Soap lather will cleanse without this.
Rinse in two warm waters softened
with a little ammonia. Never wash
or rinse in really hot or really cold
water, as they both cause the flannel
to shrink suddenly. Wate 1T on the
same mild temperature should lie
used throughout. For the same rca-
son f1annels should not be hung out
side to freeze during frosty we ther.
as this win tend to ruin them Hang
on a clothes-rack in warm room, If
possible, but do not place Near great
heat. .-.r5.

HEAVY Coal PR dUcers,

The concentration OF the anthracite
industry Of Pennsylvania, into strong
and relatively few r.i'3 is shown by
the fact that In 19t yearly rs per
cent. Of the mines were producers of
more than 100000 tons each and that
all but per cent. of the total produc-
ton was from this gdoup of mines.
According to the geological survey
the anthracite mines exclusively in the
first class-those producing over 200,-
900 tons each--yielded 87.2 per cent.
OF the total output, and the 1853 mines
included in this class had an average
production of 444,697 tons each. In
1910 there were 1877 anthracite mines
in the 200,000-ton class and their av-
erage production was 419,035 tons
each; in 1909 ITO mines had an aver.
age production of 3S6,68S tons each.

MAY MEND BROKEN
LEG IN -FOUR DAYS

Possibility that the year 1918
will see the marvel of broken
bones repaired for use within four
days and wounds healed within one
day, is forecasted by DR.. Alexis
Carrel of the Rockefeller institute
for medical research, whose success
last year won him the Nobel prize
for medicine. DR.. Carrel is now in
Europe, about to return to his
work after having been toStockholm
to receive the Nobel prize. The
announcement of his marvellous
predictions appear in the current
issue Of the Official organ of the
Rockefeller institute.
While it now requires some
times months for the repair of a
broken arm or leg, and often
weeks for the healing of q
cutaneous wound. DR.. Carrel be.
lieves that these healing processes
can be accelerated wonderfully by
he growth of connective tissue by
artificial means. He discloses that
he had been conducting experiments
to this end since 1907.
Aided by knowledge that growth
of the body is dependent in many
respects on the more or less
mysterious activities of some of
the ductless glands the thyroid or
instance he applied a mixture of
thyroid extract and macerated por.
tiuns of other organs. He found
the experiments to bear out his be-
lief that if the rate of the re.
para on of issues we're accelerated
ten times only cutaneous wound
would heal in less than "a hours,
and fracture of the leg would be
cured in four or five days.
Continuing with more radical
experiments on live animals with
the use of an extract from the
embryonal tissue, he found this in.
creased the growth 40 times. In
other words. if this were the
practical application of his dis
covery to human wounds that hea
normally in 40 days, they would
heal in one day. Experiments with

healing powers ranging from three

wad of dust and bakes it in fancy
crust and asks her folks to eat it;
and often when they come to smell

THE ARTFUL OOOGER

The United States is playing a
game of hide and seek with
William Rockefeller. The rules
of the game oil subpoenaing art
that the one sought must be tagged
by someone carrying the legal
paper, and though score IF
officers are on Rockefeller's trail,
he has so far been skillful enough
to eVade them.
There is no doubt but that Rookie
faler knows that he is wanted to
appear before the money trust in
vestigaton, but he also knows
that as long as he can keep out of
the way of a subpoena he is immune.
1t would be right if he should be
caught and thrown in Jail for a
few days for evading the law; he
could not make prcttxt that he did
not know he was wanted, because
the elaborate means taken TO con-
ceal his whereabouts show painly
that he is trying to thwart the
congressional committee: he is
avoiding the committee because he
does not want to talk because he
fears that he will be compelled to
tell things that he does not Want

TO RECOMMEND
WOMEN POLICE
THE WAGNER COMMITTEE Is
FAVORABLE TO INNovA-

NEW YORK, Mar. S-Women as
members of the police force, a COM
mittee on morals and home rule for
New York City will, it is reported, be
recommended by the Wagner COM
mittee on remedial legislation in its
report which is to be submitted to
the legislature on March 20.
The report will also recommend, it
is said, an open Sunday during re-
stricted hours, increasing pay for pa
trolmen and long tenure of police
commissioners.
It has become known that the COM
mittee was not alone influenced by
the testimony of women such as Mrs.
0. H. P. Belmont, Miss Lillian Valid,
Miss Inez Milholland and Mrs. ". X.
Vanderbilt, but that the hundreds Of
letters received daily helped to shape
the recommendations.
These letters, it is said, were from
women whose lives have been spent
in the underworld and who express
ed remorse over the past and desired
to help better conditions.
Many of these women, it is said
have volunteered to appear as wit
nesses, but the committee has .dcem-
ed it best to not let this class make
charges against the police and pl;blic
men, although recognition will be CIV
en- to all the letters.
