How to Wash coIored Embroidery.

The best way to bleach white goods
having colored embroidery (such as
doilies and other articles which can
not be boiled for fear the color will
fade) is to wash them and then dry
them I'm the shade. Put them in an
old pillow-case which has been dipped
in very strong bluing water and thor
oughly dried. Then hang the case,
with the embroidered articles inside,
I'm the light for several days. They
will be perfectly white and the col
ored embroidery will not be one bit
faded
Look After the Smoothing iron.
After the temper of smoothing
iron is spoiled it will never retain the
heat so well again. Therefore never
let irons stand on the stove when
there is q hot fire unless they are
in constant use, and do not allow them
to become over-heated.
When Heating Irons.
Turn an old pan or kettle over irons
which are being heated and they will
get hot much quicker. This also keeps
the room cooler.
How to Press Black Lace.
To press black lace, sponge with
clear water on the right side until
quite wet. lay right side down on a
black pad, cover with black cloth
and press with a hot iron. When this
is done it will be found that the lace
is like new.
A New Scheme for ironing Ribbon
If the ribbon has been washed in
\
fore pressing. If washed in soap and
water, roll in a dry cloth before press
ing. Lay several thicknesses of pa
per on the ironing board, then place
one end of the ribbon on the paper.

Comparatively Simple Explanation AS

gifts can believe all that stuff which
can be so easily explained. Indeed. it
is so easy that it reminds me of the
story told by an Ocean Grove man.

are likely TO make when they come

Pile Fabrics Popular

The prophecy that, when the price
Of pile fabric clashes with that of a
fair quality fur, the latter is preferred,
does not seem to be borne out in the
operations of the cloak manufacturers
for fall. Pile fabrics in the most eX-
pensive makes are proving so popular
with the buyers that it is estimated
the supply is going to fall far short of
the demand. The pile fabric makers
believe that the most important rea-
son for this successful competition of
their product with fur is that the
imitation has reached q stage where
it is difficult to tell the difference be-
tween it and the real thing. Another
reason aScribed is the better wearing
quality of the artificial fur.

Bia Demand for Skirts.

The great retail demand for summer
skirts has cleaned out retail stocks and
showered the manufacturers with du-
plicate orders. Flannels and gabardineS
are among the leaders, although linens
and crepes are getting their usual
heavy demand. White is most desired,
but the pastel shades are attracting
more than the usual amount of atten-
ton given to colored skirts for the sum-
mer. The scarcity of silks and the
high prices quoted by jobbers of such
material, will turn to other fabrics, it
is said, some of the business that would
otherwise go to silk numbers.

OF ASBURY PARK TONIGHT

South Amboy before.
Malone, who is accustomed to play
ing professional ball, was evidently
out of his element in the first game,
but toward the end he was working
well with the other Rivies. Schwab
has played q lot under A. A u. rules
as well as under professional rules.
The Parkites are coming to Amboy
by train, and will bring with them a
delegation of rooters from Asbury
and Bradley Beach, where several of
the players hail from.
The South Amboy crowd la always
been strong for the Monmouth County
boys for the clean court tactics they
always display. Although bitter enc
mics on the court, there is a feeling of
good fellowship between the two
teams, so much so that in 1917, at the
outbreak of the war, several of the
Riversides enlisted in Company H, at
Asbury Park.

SOUTH AMBOY, Nov. 21.-Sparks
will fly at St. Mary's Hall in South
Amboy tonight when Company II, OF
Asbury Park, one of Monmouth
County's fastest aggregations. goes in
TO action against the Riversides.
The game, which is being played
big bazaar at st. Mary's Hall, will prob
ably draw a great crowd.
In tonight's game Clancy, the fast
seashore forward, will appear at
South Amboy for the first time. n
his presence alone would almost in
sure a great game. Fred Reichey
will be at center; Knox will support
Clancy, and FAIRY and "Chippie"
Coleman will lbe on the defensive. Joe
Matthews will be on the bench.
Reichey, who hailed from Bradley
Beach, Is said to be an exceptionally
good center.
For the Rivies practically the same
team that figured in the initial victory
will be on the floor. The Rivs had a
good workout Wednesday night and
the next few games should show them
wonderfully strong in team work. Gil
Schwab is undoubtedly a great asset
to the team, and his speed, his pep,
and his knowledge of the game has
instilled new life into the Rivies. The
old reg'lars-Cantlon, Allen, and
Burns-too, show signs of playing
