congressman from South Carolina,
namely, Lever, Finley, Ragsdale,
Byrnes, and others, who have met
with, conferred with, and advised with
the committee, as has Senator Smith,
one OF the best friends the farmers
ever had in Washington.
The. congressional Record shows,
as does the Congressional Directory,
that Congressman Aiken has not
sought and obtained membership on
any committee OF direct interest to
tie farmers and the people of South
Carolina, as has Finley, who, on
Post Roads and Post Offices, helped
put through parcel post.-on which,
by the way Congressman Aiken voted
wrong, May y, 1912 incur opinion

like, Ragsdale, who, on Banking and
Currency, aelped partially include

and the like.
With reference to the Congress
mans rural credits bill H. R. 1602S,
and MS rural carriers salary bill,
H. R. 1882, he would not contend
tat either will ever be reported to
the house for consideration. His rural
credits proposition is impractical and
impossible. President Wilson indicat-
ed unqualified opposition to any such
plan in his annual message of Decem-
Der End and Congressman Aiken
must have known about the admins
tration's attitude and what the joint
subcommittee of the house and SEN
ate were formulating at the time he
introduced the bill in April. AS a
matter of fact and to be quite frank,
these bills and his speech on the
subject were intended exclusively and
solely for Home consumption" and

Dear Sir:

about the legislative record of Con-
gressman Wyatt Aiken and wanting to

Union has been urging on behalf of

This Plan Saves Cur
tains.

Every housewife knows the
disappointment of seeing her nice
curtains come back from the
laundry pulled out of shape,
frayed at the edges. and perhaps
torn. Both high cost and dam
age may be eliminated if the
following plan be adopted: Wash
out the curtain in lukewarm wa
ter in which a small quantity of
good soap has been dissolved,
rinse carefully, then run rod
through top and put up the wet
curtain at the most convenient
window for drying Gas though it
were up to stay). Put another
rod, preferably a metal one. thro'
bottom hem. This will bring the
curtain perfectly straight, in
which position it will dry. When
dry take it down, iron hens at
top and bottom, press all over if
desired, and the curtain is ready
to go into position. This method
is very simple and efficacioas,
and one has the. satisfaction of
knowing that the curtain has not
been injured by any deleterious
compound. Curtains so treated
will be found to hang perfectly
straight and even, without hav-
ing to be stretched or pulled.

of black satin, that reaches the
hips and fastens in the back with
a line of jet buttons.
The high round neck is finished
with a band of jet embl oidery
ard above it a frill of tulle flares
out. Long tulle sleeves full be-
low the elbow finish with a band
of velvet at the wrist aid frills
of lulle over the hands. A sash

three bands of velvet ribbon
