A WOman's WaY

Men folk tell us that we cannot drive
a nail, but here is suggestion for set
ting screw in some out-of-the-way
place or starting a nut on a bolt which
is beyond the reach Of wrench or fingers.
If this comes to the attention of any
men readers. they will find that they
too can use it to good advantage Stick
piece of gum on the end of the driver,
and then set the screw in position on the
driver You can then move the driver
about and the screw will not fall of.
And you can start it in the most out-of-
the-way place imaginable. To start a
nut on bolt use the anne ider stick
the gum on the end OF a screwdriver,
bolt or piece of wood, press the nut down
into the gum and start the nut wherever
you please.-Good Housekeeping.

Khaki or olive drab is the first prefer

Government has prescribed gray to be a

INTERESTED,
Javelle water rots silk and wool II
can be successfully employed TO take
stains out of cotton and linen If it is
used carefully, and an ac.d, such as

minute. The stain should then be

We would do our country u personal

greatest inconvenience to be caused
would be a little exertion on the part

little act of economy would be the
