PROPER WAY TO HANG SKIRT
Care Necessary If One Would Have II
Retain lite Original shspe-The
White Dress.

Every woman knows how hard Il Is
to hang up a skirt so that II retains its
original shape. Here Is one way in
which It can be done:
Take an ordinary wooden c~oat-hang.
er and screw underneath the hanger
two small brass hooks about one inch
long. Place them at either side Of the
center hook. at equal distances from
It. Hang the loops Of the skirt on the
hooks. A Jacket can be slipped on the
hanger without wrinkling the skirt.
To improve the shiny serge or cloth
lay It fiat on the table and pass a
piece Of fine sandpaper very gently
over the shiny part. The sandpaper
will roughen up the nap again. but be
careful not to rub too hard, as it may
wear q hole In your material.
When putting away white dresses
wrap them in dark blue cambria to
prevent them from turning yellow. Pa
per can also be used and can be blued
by dipping in strong bluing water and
dried. Fine centerpieces and doilies
not in use should be kept wrapped in
dark blue tissue paDer.-Farm and

Aged Woman Gives Up Twenty

st. PauL-After a twenty years
struggle to remain independent. Mrs.
Della Maxwell. eighty.eight years old.

out the remainder of her life. officials
of the Wilder charities found her i'll
in a desolate basement at State and

Three Angora cats, which. with their
~progenitors. have been Mrs. Maxwell's
lifelong companions were left with
neighbors, and she was told that she
might have them neal her in her new

For four years charity workers have
tried to get Mrs. Maxwell to go to
some institution where she might live
comfortably. but she persistently re-
fused to listen to such proposals for

At intervals she would be lost sight

OF Interest to Women
BIRDS TO EAT.

| No doubt 1t was because the meat OF
the bird which we commonly refer 70
simply as chicken was actually more de-
licious than that Of any other fowls OF
the air that they are vastly more useful
than any of their feathered kin. Still,
for variety's sake, and for the sake OF
appearing a little more discriminating
than the everyday run of folk who dine
upon chicken. we really do enjoy eating
other kinds Of birds. and we even like TO
insist that their flesh is vastly superior
If it were not superior, pray. why
should our millionaire friends be willing
to spend what with most of us would be
months rent for the sake OF having
fresh pheasant from Russia or DUCKS
from Damascus? And why should we
lesser lights order guinea fowl for dinner
when we invite our best beloved neigh
BILE to cook the few wisps of meat that
are contained on the bones of the quails
some hunting friend has sent us?
In this country, at least, there is no
mired by high and low alike as the tur-
key. Perhaps because they are charac-
teristically American birds, and were fed
upon by our Puritan ancestors on that
first Thanksgiving day, we take partlcu-
lar delight in eating them. Our breeders
have been very clever, too, in keeping up
the flavor of turkeys, and the best of
them are never allowed to become en-
tre1y tame. 1t is a fact that few folk
realize that the best turkeys usually con-
tain about a quarter strain of wild blood.
and in any well equipped turkey farm
there are few wild gobblers to impart
this highly desirable flavor.
OF late years. especially. guinea fowls
have received much favor and any one
who has partaken much of southern hos
pitality knows how highly these natives
of darkest Africa are priced south Of the
Mason and Dixon line.
One of the most eccentric tastes in birds
Is that cultivated by a few persons with
a craving for the unusual. This is for
swan flesh, and because Of this taste
there are quite a good many cygnets, or
young swans, sold every season in the
markets of the bigAeties. For you and
for me-that is. if you are not used to
these ,dainties-swans are much too highly
favored to be acceptable But to GER
tain persons their flesh seems delicious.
Both pheasants and quail are more
widely liked than swans or other highly
favored birds In fact, 1t requires almost
no cultivation to become epicurean enough
to appreciate their flavor. At present.
though they are still very high priced,
they are not entirely game birds. There
are several thriving farms where these
one-time wild birds are now as tame as
barnyard chanticleer, and mayhap before
another generation pass public demand
will have made them much more plenti-
full and, at the same time. much less ex-
pensive.

Dust and busters.

When we are told that there is dust
in midocean what chance have we to
escape the ever-present plague Of it on
land?
Dust we must until dust we do be-
come so the only thing to do is to or
ganize the daily combat on lines Of sci
entific ease so far as is possible.
Cloth busters may be of three classes
-cheesecloth, outing flannel and silk.
Cheesecloth wrung out OF water ana
then out of kerosene and allowed to dry
slowly (not on a radiator or in strong
breeze) makes a good dustless duster.
II there is polished furniture to keep
bright and shining outing flannel is
satisfactory: it may also be used for
polishing silver and gives almost as
perfect a luster as the very much more
expensive chamois skin. For floor bags
to tie over the broom and keep the
hardwood floors in perfect condition get
heavy canton flannel: this cleans and
polishes at the same time.
Silk is the best material to use on
highly polished surfaces like the piano
or rosewood cabinets and tables. Its
smooth surface sheds the dust and it
never becomes scratchy and gritty, as
do ordinary busters. which are liable
to inf1ict tiny scratches and eventually
disfigure the priced possession.
Now we come to the first, last and all
the time ready. willing cleaner. the
newspaper. Here is list of a few of
the things a newspaper helper can
clean:
Windows mirrors and lamp Chin
neys.
Surplus grease wiped from the dishes
before putting them into the water,
thus saving the scrubbing of the dish
pan and sink, and protecting the drain
pipe of the sink from clogged grease.
The stove; wiping Off the grease
which has spattered after broiiing or
roasting; the oven, IL juices have run
over from baking pies, puddings or ap-
pies.
Flatirons: all the burned starch and
iron rust may be easily removed with a
damp newspaper.
To save the labor of scrubbing table
tops after the preparation of a meal, or
after cleaning silver, spread several
thicknesses of newspaper over the
table.
Lining the garbage can will keep It
fresh without daily cleaning, for the
newspaper lining will be thrown out
with the rest of the refuse.
