If you have cloth gown,
which has been spotted with
) grease in any way. thesc- spots
can be removed by working at
them from the back-in other
. words. from the wrong side Of
the dress material. Rub into
each spot all the French chalk
that it will retain and let it stay
; all night. Then lay blotting or
tissue paper over the chalk and
. press with a warm iron. The
grease will begin to draw out
. on to the blotter or tissue paper.
This must be changed as the
grease appears. The minute the
grease is visible on the blotter
or tissue paper the spotted Sec
. ton must be torn off and fresh.
clean sections substituted.
. When all of the grease has
been drawn up. so that the blot

iron is passed over the spots.
. then brush out all the chalk.

disappeared. There may remain.

VENTILATION IN COAL MINES
Many Points to Be Observed in the
Installation of indispensable
Machinery.
our foresigl

The supreme Importance of good
ventilation in coal mines is now gen.
orally recognized, and what consti-
tutes good ventilation is the subject
Of a bulletin issued by the q. s. bu-
reau of mines. An efficient ventilat-
ing system must supply fresh air in
sufficient quantities for all the men
and must dilute and render harmless,
and quickly remove, all dangerous
gases in the workings. Large airways
and slow-moving but ample currents
are better than narrow airways and
air currents moving so fast that they
stir up and carry the coal dust, and
the ventilating fan should be kept
running "a hours a day whether there
are men in the mine or not The fan
should not be placed over the shaft or
in front Of a drift or slope opening
into the mine, but at one side, so that
it will not be disabled in case Of an
explosion. Generally 1t is a serious
mistake to reverse the fan. If there
is a fire in the mine this is likely to
drive infammable gases over the fire
and cause an explosion, and at any
time there is danger that reversing
the fan will push the inf1ammable
gases out on naked nghts.-Modern
Mechanics.

HAD NO SYMPATHY COMING
For His owr. Good, Farmer Was
Given Altogether Too Much
to Inference.

One day, as a good citizen of Posey
county was out in the woods looking
for 'tater. bugs he observed a small
animal of some sort dodge into hole
in a bank.
AS the hole is none too large for
cat, 1 must infer that the creature is
not a bear" unused the farmer as he
drew nearer.
Standing of a few feet he examined
the hole with interest and continued:
yes, must also infer that the ami
nal is not stray wolf. No large ami
NAL can conceal itself in a small
hole"
This was philosophy not to be dis
puted, and after patting himself on
the back the old man continued:
Il infer that it is not a coon as I
saw no rings around his tail. Had it
been fox it would have moved with
greater CELEBRITY a woodchuck would
have left hairs behind him, and as
there are no tracks l must infer that
I have not holed up a 'possum. Yes,
my inference does me credit, but
shall thrust in a pole and bring the
animal out just to see what species he
really does belong to-"
Half an hour later as he-approached
his house, his wife stood in the door
way and called out:
Mercy on me, Samuel! What have
you been doing?"
81 got critter in hole and pokeo
| him out" he replied.
But don't you know better?"
L inferred that it was neither Z
| bear nor a fox"
"Of course it wasn't. Phewi"
And I inferred that it was neither
q 'possum coon or woodchuck"
| Keep away, Samuel, keep away!'
And so L poked with a stick tt
see what it was"
| Yes; that's like an old fool Whel
you was inferring all them infers, VIII!
didn't you infer that it was a pole
cat and let the thing alone? We won
get rid Of the smell all summeri"
