Dry Dyeing.

For laces put a tube Of paint into
gasoline and stir until dissolved, then
test the shade by dipping in a SAM
pie. If too dark, add more gasoline,
but if the shade Is too light, put in
more paint, Dip the lace up and down
until the tint is obtained, then shake
the lace out and let it dry. Press on
the wrong side with a warm flatiron.
Pull gently. but do not wash first. o.
trich feathers. quilts, wings and faded

treatment. Goods not touching water

Can Any Man Of Thrty-Five Be
Heart Whole and Fancy Free?
By LAURA JEAN LIBBEY
Copyright. 1861

had gone gayly through the world to
that age told me calmly, unblushingly
that his heart had never yet thrilled
under a woman's smile, I would do
my best to keep from doubling him.
There are some things men never
will tell the exact truth about, and
their experience in romance is one
Of them.
Unfortunate is the man who belongs
to nobody and has nobody who loves
him and belongs to him only. A man
may enjoy being a rover-at home
wherever he may happen to hang up
his hat-yet he has the feeling Of
always being a stranger, that there
is no one to miss him when he goes,
no one who would be happy were he
to stay. If he is Ill or weighed down
by grief or care there is no loving
companion, no second self, to whisper
his hopes or fears to-; no one who
cares whether he succeeds in life or
staggers along under his heavy load
and fails; no n who cares whether
he has a warm bed or sleeps OUT under
the cold, white light Of the stars.
Parents must go from a mar in the
course of time. Brothers and sisters
drift the whole wide world apart,
finding other heart ties, friendships
run their lengths and lapse, but the
wife of his bosom keeps close by his
side tc the very end. The older he
grows the more Indispensable she be-
comes to him.
The man Of middle age pays him
self a. doubtful compliment in declar-
ing himself heart-whole and fancy
free. Should this actually be the ase
he should hasten to repair the dam
age at the earliest possible day. He
should not be wiser than he who has
said: 1T is not well for man to live
alone"
