For instance, with one of the best
up-to-date cleansing fluids come di-
rections to place the fabric to be
cleaned on blotting paper or many
folds of soft old cloth. The woman
who does this will find that the Fat
tern of the article cleaned will be re-
produced in discolored lines on the
bloting pattern, the fluid eating the
grease and dust right out. If the
blotting paper is not used, the fluid
will form a ring in the fabric almost
as unsightly as the original dirt.
Again, if you are using a patent
varnish or stain, and instructions bid
you first sandpaper the woodwork, use
sandpaper vigorously. The patented
article cannot perform miracles.
Here are some simple remedies for
removing spots of various kinds:
Paint-If the paint is fresh, turpen-
tine, alcohol or naptha will probably
take out the stain. If the stain is
old and dry, try chloroform. Put the
portion of fabric to be cleaned over
several thicknesses of clean cloth be-
fore trying to clean it.
Grease-Use French chalk for grease
spots. Apply it thickly and let it
stand for several days. If this is not
effective, sponge the material first on
one side, then on the other, with spir-
it's Of wine. Then press over piece
of thick linen.
Candle WaX-Put a sheet of blotting
paper under the spot and another over
it. Heat with flatiron and the wax
will be removed by the blotting paper.
Milk-White soap and warm water
should be used to take out milk stains
1t should be used Immediately.
Ink-There are several good ink Grad
icators on the market, and it is well
to have a bottle of one of these on
hand Another method is to dip the
ink-stained article into milk. The
milk should not be allowed to dry on
but if it does not remove the ink with
in a short time it should be washed
out and a fresh application of milk
made
Tea Stains-Clear warm water
should be used to remove tea stains
Coffee-Pour boiling water through
the coffee stains as quickly after the
coffee is spilled as possible. This is
never-failing remedy if the spots are
to repeat it several times.
Rain Spots-When cloth that has not
been sponged is spotted from the rain
spread a damp cloth over the wrong
side of the material and iron it dry.
Ice Cream-Anything on which ice
cream has been spilled should be
sponged with chloroform. Use severa
thicknesses of clean white blotting pa
per under the spotted article.
Gasoline Spots-Sometimes gasoline
leaves ring on cloth in which it has
been used to remove a stain. This
ring can be removed by holding the
ringed cloth over steam. Sometimes
this method does not remove the ring
The only thing to do in that case is
to dip the whole of the garment or
which the ring appears into gasoline

< 1t is true that nature and woman's
work has produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has

herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womanklnd
a remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pnkham S

remedy for woman's ills.

She joined the United Brethren church
