HOW TO REMOVE
OIL STAINS FROM
THE CARPET

The other day woman was horri-
fed to discover that her maid had
left hand prints all around the edge
of a new carpet after rubbing the
floor with oil.
The maid had evidently been there
before, for she knew what to do.
She bought q bottle Of gasoline and
q clean cloth and rubbed each stain
several times with the gasoline, us
ing a clean corner of the cloth and
repeating the application each time
the former one dried, until finally the
stain, too. had dried out and no sign
of the mischief remained. Here is
a hint for some other woman who
may have similar experience. The
windows should be opened and the
heater closed while using the gaso-
line and only enough poured from the

PIANO BOX POULTRY HOUSES
Excellent Shelter Provided for Twelve

parativeIy Small Expense.

From two piano boxes remove the
backs, then place the boxes back to
back and fasten in that position. A
door should be cut in one end and
window in the other, the roof could
be covered with tarred paper or
piece of old canvas, painted. With a
roost and couple of soap boxes ad-
ded for nests, you have a good house
roost and couple of soap boxes added
for nests, you have a good house for
a dozen hens. A small yard for exer-
cising and busting should be wired off
and a small opening cut in the house
to allow the hens to have access to
the yard.
In the winter when the hens are
confined to the house 1t would Of
course be close quarters for them II
a scratching shed was not provided.
This can be easily done, however, by
placing large packing box against
one side of the house and fastening
1t there; all the boards in the box
should be removed except the ends
and one side which is tc serve as a
top. A wide board should be nailed
along the ground from end to end of
the box, this will keep the snow out
and also will act as brace to keep
the box together. -

1T BOBS UP AGAIN.

Another Objectionable measure that
ia to be pushed through the present
session of Congress. besides the ship
purchasing bin. is the immigration
bill. which imposes the literacy test
upon aliens landing on our shores for
the purpose OF seeking a new home.
IL is anything but an effective test Of
the desirability Of the immigrant. as
those informed of the conditions OF
this class abroad will readily agree
IL Is practically the same sort of bill
that President Taft vetoed on account
OF the objectionable literacy provi-
sion. President Wilson has expressed
himself as being opposed to this test.
given out some months ago.s but
that is no assurance that he is in the
same state of mind now. He is a very
changeable man.
There can be no question but what
more definite restrictions should be
put upon immigration. to prevent the
refuse of Europe from being dumped
on our shores. as has been the case.
but IL is doubted IL the literacy of the
immigrant will be any guarantee of
his worthiness. Education, unfortu-
rately. is not always a passport for
character or usefulness. The most ac-
complished are of the criminal class
is the rule. Many persons. through
lack of opportunity for education, are
iiliterate, but not vicious. These peo-
pie are Of the most industrious kind,
are strong and robust and not calcu-
lated to become public charges. They
are the Drawn that is in demand in
this country. and always has been. for
they will do work that the American
citizen affects to scorn.
II is not difficult to see what injury
the hteracy test may work TO this
country. and where IL may deprive
many honest persons of an opportunity
for lettering their condition. This
feature of the bill is wrong in princi-
pie. and would undoubtedly be in
equitable in practice.

HOME RELIEF COMES FIRST

That We are a strongly emotional
and imDulsive nation has been proved
by our liberal response to the frantic
appeals for help from the starving
thousands OF Belgium. II was the I'M
usual condition of affairs in that
stricken country that appealed to US
most. while the obvious all around us
was neglected. Il is a characteristic
OF human nature the world over. but
there Is such a thing OF going beyond
the limit While recognizing the pitt.
able plight OF the people. who have
been reduced to penury and woeful
want through no fault of their own
making. IL still seems to The Intelli.
gencer that the unfortunate at home.
In equal distress. are entitled to the
first consideration of our charity. and
IL Is not remarkable that movement
has heen started In New York to d.
vert the food OF food and money that
Is flowing unstintedly to foreign
shores to the clothing and feeding OF
the naked and hungry in our own
country.
This idea has been vitalized by a
phiianthropic woman who has found
cd the BLACK Cross Society" whose
purpose is TO head on the shipments
OF American wealth abroad and at

practical and commendable object. II

PROPOSED new CHARTER

The proposed new city charter con.
tains some admirable features. some
very desirable changes in the form of
city government. but there are others
which will be subject to serious diff.
ferences OF opinion. II has been des-
ignated the model charter by its en-.
thusiastic promoters. though IL has
been subjected to no practical test to
prove the Projections claimed for H..
Whatever its merits. the friends and
advocates OF the charter will find some
strong opposition to its adoption. and
they must expect to meet with it. The
very definite character OF such opposi-
ton will come from those il will legis-
late out of Office. the dependent con-
tingent and prospective occupants Of
ONCE.
The adjustment of the bicameral
council and the provision for a single
body of nine members is one of the
most commendable reforms the char
ter seeks TO accomplish. but The In
teiligencer believes II fails to secure
an Improvement in personnel by the
meager compensation provided for

In attributing TO the advocates OF

even looking to that end, but merely
10 find out what must be done TO
