FOR USE IN THE LAUNDRY
Best Soap Is That Made of Fat and
an AIkaIi-ExceIent for Disin.
fecting Clothing.

The best laundry soap (made of
fat and an alkalD is, during the proc.
ess of making, kneaded like dough.
This admits air into the soap and
causes it to float when hardened. A
soap that floats dissolves easily in wa
ter and is excellent for disinfecting
purposes. The alkali and the salts Of
the fat acids combine with the water
and this solution readily penetrates
porous substances and adheres to solid
surfaces, killing any fully developed
bacteria that it touches.
Such soap solution combined with
boiling water Is invaluable for disin-
fecting clothing from the sick room,
where there has been an infectious
disease. Pour the boiling water and
soap solution down the pipes of the
kitchen sink and the bathroom con-
nections. Use 1t once a week at least
for cleansing the garbage receptacle.
The solution may be used for disin-
fecting floors. Have one pail of the
soap and water and another of clean
hot water. Scrub the floor and base
board with stiff brush dipped in the
soap and water, rinsing the brush
carefully in the hot water after each
application.-Today's Magazine.

NAMES LUMBER EXPORTS.
Amounted to s2ss,17o Dursns FIrs,
Five Months Of Year.

Bangor-Exports of lumber and it's
manufactures from the district OF
Portland which, now that the Bangor
and other lesser customs districts
have been abolished, comprises all
Maine ports as well as those of New
Hampshire, amounted in the first five
months of this year to S23917O. of
which $157.073 worth went to Eng
land. Exports would have been much
greater but for the lack of vessels
for transatlantic carrying. Recently.
and since these figures were COM
piled, considerable quantity of three
inch spruce planks has been sent from
Maine ports, including Bangor and
Stockton, to Great Britain via steam
er from Boston, and two vessels, the
Russian bark Robertsfors and the
Norwegian bark Gerd, now are a.
Stockton with deals for ports in Eng
land or Ireland, the two having ca
pacity for total of about 100000
feet.

,MAY0NNAIsE EASY TO idAKE
Popular Dressing Has Wrongly Been
Considered Too Difficult for tho
Busy Cook. shG >ie~'f

The making OF mayonnaise dressing
was formerly regarded as a very trou-
blesome affair. Exceptional cooks or
housewives, It is true, would assert
that 1t was no trouble, once the knack
was acquired; but as rule it was not
popular dressing with busy cooks.
The reason was not far to seek. In
the first place, tradition held that IL
mayonnaise dressing curdled it must
be thrown out and new mixture
started; and, as it often curdles, this
was not cheerful prospect to face
when time was short. In the second
place, tradition asserted that good
mayonnaise could be made only by
adding the oil drop by drop lengthy
and troublesome process.
Tradition in both instances was
wrong. If the mayonnaise curdles, an
egg yolk should be broken into a clean
bowl and beaten thoroughly and the
curdled mixture added to this drop.
In this way the mayonnaise will be
recovered.
The three-minute mixture that saves
the tedious drop-by-drop process is
made as follows:
Measure out the salt and mustard
into bowl and add whole egg, both
yolk and white. Beat this mixture
thoroughly and then add one-third of a
cupful of oil, all at once. Beat this
until it begins to thicken, then add an
other third Of cupful Of Oil. This
makes fairly thin mayonnaise. If
a thicker one is desired more oil must
be added, making cupful of oil in
all; beat until very stiff, then set the
bowl on ice until the dressing is
wanted.
Mayonnaise made by this process is
less likely to curdle than that made
in the old way, and the mixture is
quite as good.
A bowl or jar of mayonnaise will
keep for some time If put in the re-
frigerator, and it is very useful to
have on hand. 1t is we'll to remember,
too, that mayonnaise can be trans
formed into tartare sauce by the adj
dition Of chopped gherkins and capers.
Therefore 1t is economy in time SO to
plan your menus that a fish dish
served with a tartare sauce is fol-
lowed the next day by a salad requir-
Ing a mayonnaise dressing, or vice
versa.

Lumber Drives DELAYED.

Skowhegan-Pulp and lumber
companies report that the drives on
the Kennebec River have been great
ly handicapped by the heavy rains
and though no great damage has been
done considerable extra work will be
necessary to repair the booms and
clear the island of logs. Many of the
big booms were broken and consid-
cradle number Of logs ran astray to
the shores and island
The total drive amounts to 1O9,-
1S9,194 feet, though the total cut for
the season was 12O,247,191 feet.
About 100000 feet is left back to
be used at Jackman and at Long
pond in the mill Of the Newcastle
Lumber Company and other com
panies.

For Protection of Maine People from
Rabies.

Augusta-At a meeting of the state
board of health which was held at the
state house, in view of the prevalence
of rabies (hydrophobia) in some
places outside, and of the danger of
the bringing of dogs into Maine which
have been bitten by rabid animals,
the board made rules and regulations
for the purpose of safeguarding the
human and the animal population of
this state which in comparison has
been fortunate in its exemption.

tirely new means of attacking the
enemy by the use Of gases, the method
is not brand new to those who have
been familiar with the suggestions
which have come from all sorts OF
sources regarding the devices for con-
Quoting war and which have been re-
ferred regularly to the board of
ordnance and fertilization under the
War Department.
That board has. in the course of
its existence, accumulated vast
quantity of recommendations. most of
them impracticable. Among them will
be found many suggestions in favor
of the asphyXiating process, mostly
by the employment of gases contained
in bombs to be thrown within the
lines of the foe. with varying effects
from a peaceful slumber to instant
death,
1t is recalled that one ingenious
person suggested a bomb laden to it's
full capacity with snuff, which should
be SO evenly and thoroughly distrib
uted that the enemy would be con-
vulsed with sneezing. and in the per-
iod of this paroxysm it would be pos
sible to creep upon him and capture
him in the throes of the convulsion.
OF course, the Germans appear to
have utilized asphyxiating gas with
a skill which is recognized as char
acteristic of their high military science.
but the same idea crudely presented
and sometimes absurdly described, has
been for a long time in the minds
of the earlier American inventors. who
have never been taken seriously and
who were not entitled to be so regard
ed without the present foreign devel-
opment along practical lines of their
theories.
The deliberate way in which the
Germans have used asphyxiating gases
is dealt with in a special dispatch
from Sir John French, who states that
the gases have been elected from
pipes laid in the trenches and also
produced by the explosion of shells
manufactured for the purpose. The
German troops who attacked under
cover of these gases were provided
with specially designed respirators
which were issued in sealed patent
covers.
The effect of this poison is not
merely disabling or even painlessly
fatal, as suggested in the German
press. Those of it's victims who do not
succumb on the field and who can
be brought into hospitals suffer acute
ly and in a large proportion of cases
die a painful and lingering death.
Those who survive are in little better
case. as the injury to their lungs ap-
pears to be of a permanent character
and reduces them to a condition which
points to their being invalids for life.
