SOME HELPS FOR WASHDAY
Several Simple Ways by Which Busy
Housewife Can Save Time
and Strength.

When taking clothes off the line
fold smoothly the wash cloths, bath
towels and hose and lay them away
without ironing. They are just as
good for use as though they were
ironed, and the busy wife needs to
save her time and strength whenever
possible.
Always iron embroidery on the
wrong side so as to bring out the
pattern.
A tablespoon of kerosene in starch
will keep it from sticking.
If you scorch an article badly when
ironing. moisten it with lemon juice,
rub in sore salt and lay it in the sun
shine If it is only a slight scorch the
sunshine will remove it.
If possible, sprinkle the clothes the
night before ironing day. The damp
ness will be evenly distributed and
they VIII iron easily next day.
Black goods will not look shiny and
the white starch will not show on II
II it is ironed on the wrong side.

Making Fun for Eechtsr.

had a keen sense of the ridiculous,

in which the late Charles Fechter was
appearing. In one scene Fechter had
to hand over some money to the vii.
lain, which he did in very deliberate
manner, counting one, two, three
four. five, six and so on. The interest
centered on Mr.. Fechter having
enough coin to satisfy the rapacious
demands of Mr. Bad Man, and the
audience was becoming restless and
impatient to know If he (Fechter)
could make the right change. Finally

POLITENEss OF VALUE
rs CONSTANT HELP AND BENEFIT
TO OTHERS.
No Greater Good In This World Than
Love, Kindness and the consIdera-
tion Of Others In
the Home.

Politeness that is bred in the bone
and is in constant use creates in the
character a resemblance to a flower
whose beauty and perfume pervades
the atmosphere in which II develops,
and is a constant help and benefit to
others.
suppose there is no greater good
in this world than love, kindness,
and the consideration Of others in the
home.
Boys in a family where thereeare
no girls, owe it to their mother to
help her with the heavy homework.
There is nothing degrading in pushing
a washing machine or turning a
wringer, but on the contrary II is hon
orable service. Any boy who will let
his mother do any heavy work that
can be done by him is making a
wrong start in life and is laying up
trouble for somebody's daughter when
he marries her.
Most of us take life too seriously
and fail to. see the bright and beauti-
full side of things as we plod along
with our daily work. Cheerfulness
and the ability to be happy and make
those around us happy are not Divine
gifts, but simple heart growths that
can be cultivated at the same time we
cultivate corn and the flowers. They
are crops that pay 1000 per cent.
The most beautiful thing in the
world is a wholesome, sweet-tempered
girl, whose cardinal points are unself-
fshness. cleanliness, neatness and poll
t-ness-whose natural lovableness is
so irresistible that people swarm
around her like bees around a honey
suckle. She is tonic to the i'll and
unfortunate. She is the embodiment
of joy, and her friends are legion.
This girl is the one who helps her
mother-who sings at her work-whc
caresses and cheers her father, look
ing after his comfort-who works in
stinctively and quietly without osten
tation.
She thinks her people are the finest
people in the world and they adore
her as she deserves.-Julie Gordon.
