VACATION HINTS.

On tramping trips and picnics a few soda water strawS will very often take the place of the drinking cup. Many times it is impossible to pro- cure a cup of clear water without stirring up the sediment in a brook. A straw will not disturb the water, will reach down to the clear water underneath the top, which may be leaf-covered, and is easily carried.
 When you are going camping, do not fail to take with you an asbestos roaster. This is made from a square of asbestos cloth or paper and is cone-shaped. It is really indispensa- ble for roasting potatoes, apples, corn on the ear. etc The food is placed inside and the pointed end of the cone is inserted dn the camp fire. Do not stand it upright, but leave it on its side with the apex of the cone toward the fire The use of this roaster will produce roasted camp favorites with a great deal more of pa1ateableness than otherwise.
 You will need matches and the sort that are immune to dampness. Dip the sulphur ends of them into melted parafine. They will burn even in the rain this way, for the WdA TuiiS OOHA anu hSePS tH0Hi II AO-A going out

Household Hints

To remove the rust from tinware rub the rusted part well with a green tomato. Allow the tomato to remain on the tin for a few minutes, then wash and the rust will disappear.
 If you drop a ueaspoonfu1 of fat into the water in which you are boil ing dry beans or other starchy vege- tables, you will not be annoyed by having the lid of the pot jump off. The fat acts as oil on the troubled water and keeps it calm
 Place spools on the nails in your clothes closet and hang your gar ments on the spools, thus keeping them from being torn by the nails.
 Save the annoyance of scattered crumbs when putting dry bread or crackers through the meat grinder by muzzling the whole front of the ap- paratus by a paper bag-not a crumb will escape.
 When cleaning mating or the crex rugs shake thoroughly to remove all dust, then rub well with a cloth rung out of salt and water. Use alcohol to remove stains.
 If washing in soap and water makes your hands rough rub them with oat- meal while still wet and they Will be- come soft.
 You can clean the tinware by rub ping with dry flour, using a piece of newspaper instead of cloth
 When marking linen with ink first make the initials with lead pencil and then trace the ink over the pen ciI marks. This will prevent the ink from spreading.
 To Keep a Rug From Curling.
 When the edge of a rug persists in curling up, lay over 1t, on the wrong side, a damp cloth, and on this place a moderately hot iron. Let 1t stand i for few minutes and the steam will make the rug lie perfectly flat An old corset steel dress-stay, or piece of stiff wire, cat-stitched diag- onally at the corners on the wrong side of a much-used tapestry rug, will keep 1t from curling.

ETIQUETTE

A young woman who does not mean to allow attentions to step beyond the bounds of friendship may easily, yet delicately, check a young mans suit by accepting his invitations at inter vals only His gifts she cannot, for courtesy's sake, forbear to receive appreciattvely, since he has no right to imply that she imagines that his offerings of flowers, fruit, books and other trifies indicate another motive than mere friendly generosity

A woman arriving at a place where she has friends and intending to stop there for greater or less time takes pains to acquaint her friends, both the men and the women, of her pre- sence by posting her visiting cards bearing her temporary address. A man in such circumstances calls on his friends, and if he finds them not at home he leaves his card.
 The birth of a child is announced to. friends and acquaintances by spe- cial cards sent by post.

heat. During hot weather hogs need
an abundance of shade-natural shade,
such as is furnished by trees and
bushes being the best.
Temporary Shelter.
Where natural shade and shelter are
not available, the hog owner should
put up a temporary shelter by building
framework about 4 feet high ana
thoroughly covering the top with
brush, straw, grass, or hay. This mex
pensive sunshade should be of sutti-
cient size to protect herd OF hogs IN
comfort as they lie under 1t. AS rule
the ordinary hog house should not be
used for shade purposes during the
summer. Each year hog mortality is
comparatively heavy due to "porkel
sunstroke" induced by maintaining the
hogs in the open without sufficient pro
lection from the ruddy glow Of Ole
Sols furnace.

WILSON AS CHAMPION
OF AMERICAN RIGHTS
Declares Articles That Make
War Improbable Over
looked by Critics.

TneianapoIis. Ind.-President Wilson
told a crowd of several thousand here
Thursday that no one belived the
league of nations would make all wars
impossible, but that he expected it TO
make war improbable"
The economic and arbitration Sec
tions of the covenant, he asserted,
would keep war on the outskirts ana
make it only last resort.
Calling on opponents OF the league
to present a better program Tor
peace President Wilson declared it Is
a case of put up or shut up
Opponents of the league of nations,
he said, had discussed only three out
of twenty-six articles of the covenant
The articles which would make war
improbable had been overlooked.
The president said his speaking trip
was partly to point out how "aoso-
lutely ignorant" of the contents OF the
covenant some of those were who op-
posed the league.
81 am an American he declared,
"and a champion Of the rights which
America believes in"
At this the crowd cheered and there
was another 0utburst of cL eering when
he declared he had mot the slightest
doubt" what the verdict of the people
would be.
"At present" he saiQ I'VE have to
mind our own business, but under the
covenant of the league we can mind
other peoples business"
There was not an oppressed people
anywhere, he said, that could not gel
attention for it's case under the league
Referring to the shantung settle
ment, the president pointed out tha
Japan repeatedly had promised to re
turn the peninsula to China. He die
not 90 into the subject at length, how
ever, but mentioned it in emphasizint
that the covenant would refuse u
recognize the validity Of secret trea
ties.
