sINIpIIEIED SPELLING.

Both in America and England but
not so slowly in America as In Eng
land-changes have been and are GO
ing on In the forms OF spelling. These
changes come about almost impercep-
tibly, and consist In dropping letters
which appear to be superfluOus. We
say appear To be-" for not all letters
which seem useless orally are really
useless as TO their presence IN a word.
for Instance, write" right" and
rite are sounded alike. but the dif-
ference In spelling tells the difference
in meaning. Spelled In the so-called
simplified style. an three would be

pnfying. would cause confusion. This

autocrnts of spelling reform. but u

The materials needed are very
simple, only fuiler's earth. block mag

and borax and "a few cleaning cloths

soiled places. After Il has been hor
oughly gone over the meal should be
thrown out and the gown put back

meal. Then ! shall leave II there for
two days. with a cloth over the tub
to keep out the dust. Then shake Il
thoroughly In the air. and brush Il
with a clean. soft. bristled brr-h. II
will iced a good pressing and will
then be as white as II Il were new"
Marjoris was much impressed with
this Information. and decided to clean
her pale blue evening cape In he
same way.
How can YOU remove those rease
spots from that lavender gown over
there?" asked Marjorie. pointing TO a
lovely gown lying on the bed.
Grease spots ON silk or wool can
be removed by the application OF
French chalk. Place plentw Of the
powder on the wrong side OF the
goods and let II stand for n few hours.
Then brush the powder on and put on
fresh. Lay blotters under me over
the stained place and gently press
with a hot iron. Replenish the blot
tiers until no grease II visible upon
them and then brush the spot free
from powder"
Well. these things are mighty use
