A Dainty Hint

The odor of soap that often clings
to clothes is not at all desirable. A
lump OF orris root put in the rinsing
water for fine pieces such as handker-
CHIEFS, lingerie and blouses will give
a delicate violet perfume more per-
manent than that of the ordinary
sachet.

While there little Nancy Carr hap

accident. While her father was shut
ting up one of the seats of the auto

caught, and the end of the middle finger
of her right hand was nearly torn of.
Her parents fastened with the child
to hospital, where she was put under
the influence of an anaesthetic and sew

sewed her finger thought that owing to
the little girls being SO young the finger
will be all right in a very short time.

GERMANS MANUFACTURES
FINE SOAP FROM SUGAR

Hamburg, July 28.-The discovery is
announced of a method of manufacture
of soap from sugar, of which Germany
has plenty, instead of from oil, which
is scarce. In the past it has been pos
sible to use sugar only in soaps that
had little value. By the new method,
it is claimed, the soap produced is not
only fine and delicate, but it acts as
efficiently in salt water as m fresh-a
fact that may make the soap valuable
for the navy.
Articles that formerly had to be sent
to chemical laundries can now be washed
with the new kind of soap. The finest
kinds of silks, it is alleged, not only are
not harmed by it, but their colors are
brought ont brilliantly and as new. In
addition. the suga-soap seems to be re-
sponsible for a minimum of the wear
and tear occasioned by oldfashioned
cleansing soaps.
