When Cleaning Lace

Very fine lace, when slightly soiled,
can be beautifully cleaned in a prepa-
ration Of block magnesia in which a.
small quantity of dry blueing has
been sifted. Scrape the magnesia
from the block, use dry blueing, il OBJ
tainable, then coat the lace on both
sides with the substance.
Wrap 1t in several thiclnesses of a
folded towel and beat the towel light
ly from end to end, side to side, and
repeat until the lace Is free from all
dust.
This is an exceptionally successful
method of cleaning Irish crochet
and silk laces.
When too badly soiled make a,
preparation of equal parts of gaso.
line and chloroform, containing a few
drops of ammonia, and mix in this
sufficient cornstarch to make a soft
paste.
Apply this to the lace, allow the
eornstarch to dry thoroughly, then
shake the lace free from dust.
Very delicate lace yokes containing
silver and gold threads, tinsel or jew
els, can be cleaned without injury In
this manner.-Philadelphi Press.

To Stop Rafting Windows

Never use paper to paste up win
dow that rattles or admits too much
air in the winter.
Tear strips of muslin or old calico
and dip the pieces into starch made
with flour and cold water, not warm.
Run the strips through this smooth
paste and adjust them to the cracks
of the window.
The muslin becomes like soft putty
and will adjust itself wherever placed
and will hold like cement
When you desire to remove 1t catch
one end of the strip, give it a pull and
it comes off without the least resist
ance or injury to paint, which Is not
true of paper strips used for the
same purpose.-Philadelph Press.

The Tragedy of the Dolls

Floss and Wilsey each had a doll.
Floss named hers Emeline. Wjlsey
called his Peter. Peter wore a fierce
cooked hat and a flaming soldier suit.
Wilsey always said that Peter was
preacher and Emeline was the
congregation. And Floss said Eme-
line was a fine lady.
One day he leaned Peter on a chair
as usual and a book in front for a
desk. Floss felt, very naughty. She
felt very tired of hearing the
preacher say, "Be good" She sprang
up and seized the preacher by one
leg and sent him spinning to the
ceiling. Fight, soldier, she cried.
Poor Peter came down on the hot
stove and had his face scorched
black. Then was little Wilsey en-
ragged. He grabbed Emeline and hit
her against the stove as hard as he
could Poor Emeline flew into a
thousand pieces. And then they
screamed and mama came in. She
undressed them and sent them to
bed They had to stay In bed all
that long sunny day thinking of their
naughty quarrel.
