Exit DishteweIs.

No more sticky plates and no more dishes dried on dishtowels.
 These are two of the things for which the r. NJ. c. A. training schools for home assistants Is standing. The school was started in answer to the demand for home assistants on the new domestic service plan which have come into the central branch employ ment bureau. Within the last six months 500 calls for home assistants have come in, and ITO have been sue fully filled.
 sThere should never be sticky plate after the home assistant has fin- ished the course," Miss Grace H. White, placement secretary, says. 'sThe girls are taught how to make their own soda preparation for cleansing the ice box, the kitchen closets, etc.. and how to clean sink and a kitchen range so that 1t shines.
 Dishes are never dried with a disb- towel, hut always scalded and allowed to dry without a streak

HAS GEYsERs OF ALL KINDS
No Display Like That in the Yellow stone Can Be Found in All
 the World.

Perhaps there have been greater geyser basins somewhere in the pre- historic past There may be greater still to come; one or two promising possibilities are in Alaska, writes Robert Sterling Yard, in ''The Book of the National Parks" But for the lapse of geologic time in which man has so far lived, Yellowstone has cor nered the worlds geyser market. There are only two other places where one may enjoy the spectacle of large geysers. One of these is New Zea- land and the other Iceland; but both displays combined cannot equal Yel- lowstone's either in the number or the size of the geysers.
 Yellowstone has dozens of geySers of many kinds. They range in size from the little spring that spurts few inches every minute to the mon- ster that hurls hundreds of feet in the air every six or eight weeks. Many spout at fairly regular intervals of minutes or hours or days. Others are notably irregular, and those in- clude most of the largest. Old Faith full won it's name and reputation by it's regularity; it is the only one of the group of monsters which lives up to it's timetable. Its period ranges from intervals of about 55 minutes, in sea- sons following winters of heavy snow, to 30 or S5 minutes in seasons follow ing winters of light snow.

LEAF SPOT HARMS LEeuMEs
Fungus Which Causes Disease Lives Over Winter on Dead Leaves
 Two Characteristics.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agrfculture.)
 Common alfalfa leaf-spot and red clover leaf-spot are similar in appear ance but are caused by two distinct fungi, says specialist Of the United States department of agriculture vhe has published the results of studies of alfalfa and clover leaf-spots in Bulle- tin 750
 The fungus which causes alfalfa leaf-spot lives over winter on dead leaves which escape decay. There are two characteristics of leaf-spot caused by this particular fungus which usual ly serve to distinguish 1t from spots caused by other fungi. One Is the cir cular shape and small size of the spots. and the other is small raised disk iE the center of the fully developed spot.
 The disease is one of the most se- rious and widely known of those which attack the foliage of alfalfa It causes greatest loss during wet weather. and cases have been reported where 1t has destroyed half of the alfalfa crop
 Little is known of the method by which fields become infested. Efforts to exclude the disease from alfalfa fields in localities remote from other alfalfa by the surface sterilization of the seed have given no success Eyf- dently, in these experiments at least. the department pathologist says the fungus was not carried on the surface of the seed-probably not with the seed at all. The source of infestation in such fields still furnishes an inter. eSting problem.

The. funniest wedding I ever saw was when camping last summer, writes a correspondent of the Chicago Trib- une. A girl friend and her father were there and she met a young man whom she grew fond of in a short hme. One night he asked her father for her hand, but father objected be- cause of the short acquaintance. The next morning the couple met and planned to elope, but somehow father "got wise," so this was spoiled. When swimming that afternoon they met again and the girl happened to men, ton that her father had gone to the village and would not return until eve ming. The boy said: sThis is our tfme." A minister was on the shore and they went to him and asked to be married at once. The ceremony was performed on the beach, the couple attired in their bathing suits.

It Has Happened Before.

As his relatives and friends are aware, George Wharton Pepper is a nonsmoker.
 Not long ago MT. Pepper was about to entertain some distinguished guests whom he delighted to honor.
 His first move in the direction of their entertainment was to procure and send to the house some particu- larly choice Havana cigars, which ''set him back" to the tune of 50 cents each. But 1t seems the cigars arrived before it was made known at home that the guests were expected.
 That evening Mrs. Pepper said to her husband: 1"Some cigars came for you today-evidently gift from some one. Knowing you didn't smoke, I gave them to men who were working in the house. e."-Philadelphia Ledger.
