Narrowing eretna Green.

Gradually the door is being closed
against runaway and hasty marriages.
Since New Jersey few years ago
enacted laws which made Camden I'M
desirable for clippers from this city,
Wilmington has been the Gretna
Green. But there have been some
scandals. as there always will be in
such cases, and Delaware could not be
. expected to enjoy scandals not Of her
own creating. A bill is now going
through the legislature of that state
to require lapse of four days between
the application for the issuance of a
marriage license in the case of non
resident, If that act becomes a law
it win be impossible for Philadelphia
couples to rush down to Wilmington
after breakfast, get married and be
home again by lunch time. 1t will be
a good thing in some ways.-Philadel

good handful of oatmeal should at

To remove a stain caused by the

try a weak solution Of hydrothloric
acid.
To wash varnish, steep some tea
leaves In water for an hour, then
strain them out and use the liquid
for washing the vanished wood.
This decoction gives the woodwork
cleaner, fresher look than when
washed with only soap and water.
Down and feather pillows may be
easily and successfully cleaned with
rice root, horse brush and a tub of
hot suds. Dampen the pillow and rub
any good washing soap over the soiled
places. Dip the brush into the suds
and rub vigorously for several min
utes. Now rinse and hang out in the
sun.
To clean glass, put little pow
dered pumice Stone between the
layers of folded piece of soft mus
lin, and stitch around the edges to
prevent the powder from falling out.
Rub lamp glasses and window panes
with this dry cloth and they will be
clean and sparkling Immediately.
Enough powder should remain in the
cloth for use many times.

REASON THE DOUGH SoURS
Uncleanliness In the Making or the
Utensils Is One Of Prln-
clpaI Causes.

There are two reasons why bread
sours. One is because the process OF
making or the utensils have been un-
clean, or else the dough has been al
lowed to stand too long before being
made into loaves. II milk is used 1t
. should be scalded and allowed to cool.
Raw milk should not be used In
breadmaking.
Supposing it is inconvenient to mold
the loaves just at the time 1t is be-
lieved the dough is ready, it is good
plan TO knead 1t in the pan again for
few minutes.
This prevents souring. and the
dough, If only lightly kneaded, will
soon rise again. 1t should then be
put into the baking pans as quickly
as possible.

The women stenographers and typ
lists of Melbourne have formed an as
ISOLATION with the object of getting
Alter pay. The rate fixed recently
u a wages board determination" be-
gan with a minimum Of $3.50 week
for girls of sixteen. and ran up to a
minimum of $12 at one-and-twenty
But Australian women expect much
higher payment than English women
and the association demands 1925 as
a beginning wage, with an annual ad-
vance of $125 weekly. At the end of
four years this would produce a sal
airy OF $13.25, at which figure they de-
sire to have the minimum fixed. The
action of these young women seems
to contradict the theory OF some
economists that minimum wage
tends TO be accepted as maximum

Compared with our human eyesight.

Gated fact that vultures do not find
their food by the sense Of smell.
Many years ago Charles Darwin ex-

was detailed for service with
some troops that we're moving along
the Mexican border One evening we
camped near small stream on the
western slope Of the hills east from
San Diego, During the night one Of the
wagon mules died We took the body

summit Of the highest hill, some three
miles from our camping ground and
swept the country through a pair Of
powerful binoculars.
AS the glasses moved along the no
rizon a vulture, a mere speck In the
distance, came into their field He
was sailing In great circles In the blue
heavens, miles away, far beyond the
ken of the unaided eye, Suddenly he
paused in his fight, turned sharply,
and headed directly for our abandonaf
camp grounds. watched him until
4. l was convinced that he had discov-
cred the dead mule.
Then / recollected that years ago
had read in one of Capt. Mayne Reds
books something of the habits Of vul-
lures, and began to look for others,
relates a writer In the Youths Com
panion. In few minutes another APP
peared, black speck in the sky,
speeding in the wake of the first;
then another and another came, from
different points Of the compass; then
more and more, all hurrying toward
their loathsome feast.
While l watched the gathering vul-
lures made a little calculation. When
the first vulture discovered the car
cass he was not visible to the naked
eye, and was but speck through the
binoculars. That is, adding the three
miles | had ridden from camp to
eighteen, the range Of the binoculars.
the bird must have been nearly TWEEN
ty-one miles from the carcass.
The carcass itself was partly con-
cealed and invisible from my posi-
ton. except through the glasses.
That the yulture depended upon his
vision alone is evident. as enough time
had not passed for any putrefactive
changes to faint the air.
Another interesting thing was the
promptness with which the other vul-
lures took the hint when the first
made the discovery. There was only
H}R in sight to begin with In ten min
W. there were fifty.
