To Remove Ink Stains.

Ink car be taken from white goods
with tomatoes If applied freely. Cold
milk is good when the stains are fresh,
changing the milk as often as neces'
sary. Fresh butter is even a better
solvent.
If very obstinate and the material
will stand hot water, the stain should
be covered with melted tallow, then
washed in the usual way.
Oxalic acid will remove any very
obstinate stains, but can be used only
on white goods, as 1t will destroy the
color. The crystals are dissolved in
boiling water and the liquid is applied
to the stain. A thorough rinsing in
clear water afterward Is imperative.
Another Method.
In dyeing and cleaning shops ether
is used almost exclusively for remov-
ing ink from fabrics. It is power
full cleansing agent, but will destroy
materials unless they are we'll rinsed.
Ether will remove perspiration stains,
but should be mixed with ammonia
and water. One-fourth ether, one
fourth ammonia and one-half water Is
a good mixture. Rinse and place IN
the sun.
A bottle of cologne is a most use
full article, for 1t will take away
smears If rubbed on as soon as they
appear. It can be used alike on white
or colored fabrics, cotton or woolen,
without the slightest injury.

Divorce Cured

paper Syndicate.)

If ever any woman had cause for a
divorce it was Edith-that is how
Edith reasoned, anyway. Tom had
been the neglectful husband, almost
from their honeymoon. And quarrels :!
Well, it was almost more than she
could stand. Everything she said he
disagreed with. Everything he said
she disagreed with, although she did
not think Of that part of it. She did
not like his relatives, and he hated
hers. His sister Argentine had made
the second summer Of their marriage
miserable for Edith, and now Tom had
a perfect right to put up with her
brother Gerald. Gerald was a good
sort, and was a much better brother
than Tom was husband.
The last straw came when Tom had
refused utterly to publish one Of Ger
aids stories. Tom was head Of a pub
fishing house and could have easily
marketed one of Gerald's many liter
ary endeavors, and Edith was quite
sure he would have done so had Ger
aid been any one save her brother.
Their quarrel had been long and
heated one and that night Edith had
cried herself to sleep. In the morning
she came down almost ready to for
give, but the first sound that greeted
her caused all the resentment to come
back into her soul. Tom was lectur-
ing Gerald scathingly.
II won't have you sitting up writ
Ing stories until two o'clock in the
morning in my house." Tom was say
Ing. 1T would be more to your credit,
young man, If you got out and did
do some good in the world" e..
At this point Edith clustered in.
Few women are beautiful when angry
and Edith isn't included in the few.
