could boast of her first records. was
again visited by confiagration Mon
day night when the store house and its
contents. belonging TO G.. w. Clay, was
burned to the ground.
Mr. Clay and family who lived over
the store had very narrow escape
with their lives as they had not been
rescued longer than five minutes when
the building fell with a crash. They
were rescued by means of rope
clothes line suspended from the upper
front porch, the stairway in the rear be
ing entirely cut off before the fire was
discovered. The three small children
were rescued by being thrown from
the front porch above and caught by
those on the ground.
So intense was the smoke that they
could not be seen until they had almost
reached the ground. Not even their
wearing apparel was saved.

WINTER WASHING.

! Now that cold weather Is really In sight,
the ways Of the laundress must be
changed form those she follows in sum
mer. Her summer ways are pleasant
but those she must follow in winter
are beset with discomfort. The change
from steamlng laundry to the crisp out
door air. the drying of heavy woOIen
clothes on duh days. and the washing Of
heavy wooIen ciothes-all these DIM
cultIes that she must overcome.
So much for the winter tale Of woe
of the laundress. II one is q good laun-
dress, she Ii as much interested in. her
winter work as in her summer work.
She follows many devices that make her
work more easier and more efficient
To begin with. she guards her health
by having a pair OF loose white wooien
or cotton gloves that she pulls on her
hands when she hangs the clothes out to
dry.
She has a. loose wooden scarf to wind
about her head and throat
She has pair Of ruhbers when the
ground Is damp.
She has a loose wooden sweater or
coat to put on. Il takes only a few mo-
ments to don ard take on these things
each washing day. but they protect her
from the chiils and colds that might
otherwise result from flle sudden change
from heat to cold.
Next, she remembers that clothes hung
In the wind may be shredded to pieces.
She hangs all dainty lingerie and fine
blouses in the house on cold and windy
days. Frozen clothes blown by the wind
are most easily torn, 30 II the weaIner
Is freezing, she hangs everything but the
heaviest clothes In the house.
She puts handkerchlefs and small pieces
of neckwear in a big cheesecloths bag on
the line in cold weather to keep them
from being torn and hurt with frost
and wind.
She knows that freezing makes linen
crack, so she always dries linen in the
house when the temperature is low.
She adds a couple of tablespoonfuls OF
salt to the blueing water to keep the
clothes from freezing.
She puts the clothesplns In the oven and
heats them thoroughly so that they will
be warm and easy to handle. instead Of
chilling her hands with their icy touch
She soaks all new flannel by the yard
for the night In cold water to shrink
It thoroughly before IL is made up.
Flannel garments that have not been
shrunk, she washes in lukewarm water.
and she dries them as rapidly as possible
neither In the shade nor the sun.

Economy of Souus.

The cost of living can be reduced with
little effort II only American women will
realize the economy of soups. It is said
that The French women can live on
what the American woman throws
away" and as American women do not
throw away their meats and desserts,
they can economic in making of soups.
II the cooking is watched and properly
managed the results will be amazing
says an exchange.
I can tell you how to do II only In a
general way. Never threw food away
no matter how small the amount. Save
IT for soup. Save also all drippings and
bones. all water In which vegetables have
been boiled and put aside for the soup
Add a little barley or tapioca balls
soaked over night to the clear stock, a
little celery seed. a dash OF paprila, salt
and pepper. and simmer. Never boil soup.
Sometimes you viii want a clear soup.
Take broth from the pot roast, and for
soup for the next day add noodles. There
are many ways to cook these soups at
little or no expense, but the best way Is
10 use your leftOvers and experiment IN
combining Ingredients. and you will soon
be an expert at soup making.

KINGS ENGLISH IN ERROR.
Form of Royal Proclamation Has
to BE Changed.

London. Nov 1.-The change in form
of a royal proclamation Issued by King
George and published iR The London
Gazette today was explained by an Of
fetal Of the British government 1t con-
Germs the designation Of the parties now
at war with Great Britain, and before
September II read:
Whereas. a state Of oRar has now
existed between Us and the German EN-
pire and between Us and the
Dual Monarchy of Austria-Hungary.
etc"
In The Gazette Of September n and in
subsequent issues the proclamation has
read:
Whereas, during the war between Us
and the German Emperor and
the war between Us and the Emperor OF
Austria, King Of Hungary, etc.
According to the official interviewed.
who took the matter under considera-
tton for some hours, the first form was
merely carelessly Inaccurate. The Us
clearly referred to King George, ami
hence should be followed by the title OF
the sovereign with whom King George
was at war. In view Of the wording of
some Of the speeches and statements of
the more responsible English statesmen,
certain people thought the explanation
above given that this change In form
OF the Kings proclamation was but
further indication that England consld-
eFs herself at war with only the two
Enperors.

GREETNGSl

Good morning! lil1e,your city and
IKE to think that hereafter it is to be
my city. too. i feel actually at home in
Washington, although have lived here
Is a bona fide resident of the National
Capital only for a few hours. and that
All BY artificial light am eager to see
the sunlight shiHing through the streets
OF my new home. 1 am eager to see your
faces in the daylight and 10 learn from
you how to be real Washington woman.
First impressions count You know my
first impression of Washington is. of a
hospitable hosiery to which / snail have
retired many hours before We FIRST meet
in the columns of today's Herald.
And why did / come to Washington?
Just desire-a desire to be part in the
rebuilding Of a woman's page, edited by
women, for women, about. women and
their many interests and activities.
The usual, old-fashioned woman's page?
I hope not and am sure you do, too.
That sort Of page is all very well for
the usual, out-of-date type Of woman.
But Washington women, am told. are
not in that-class. So let's get together
you and me and the men and women
on the stan of The Herald and do our
best to make this page of the same i'm
portance to women as the sporting or
commerce and finance pages have so
eonclusively proved to be to the mascu-
line members Of this community.
Let's go about 1t candidly and squarely
and make the page a page that has to
do with the serious as well as the lighter
and happier things Of life-a page that
will be a place not only to express the
views Of the men and women on the
staf Of The Herald, but an open
forum where you may express YOUR
views frankly and freely and where you
can come for advice and information
when you need it, place, too, where We
can talk frivoIously sometimes and
where we can indulge in harmless gossip,
and place, last Of all where we may get
better acquainted every day.
am glad to have met. you this morn
ing. shall be waiting for you tomor-
row morning and, I trust, many, many
mornings to come.
