 Instead of it being an instance demon strating the practicability of the devices for rescue under similar or worse condi- tions it appears to have been a case where the old time practice of waving shirt as a signal of distress and the employment of old fashioned devices for piercing the steel she'll were important factors in meeting the situation. It was likewise an emergency which showed the dangers of a submarine in times of peace as we'll as war.

RIGS.

Here are hints as to cleaning and sig ing carpets and rugs: First, warm wa ter and good white soap, free from aka Ii, will not hurt any good woolen carpet, either domestic or oriental.
 Ordinary grease spots should be re- moved with cloth wet in gasoline i; cream or milk spots may be removed with warm water and soap, followed by a good rinsing; jam, fruit, etc, with clear, cold water, followed by hot if ne- cessary. Slip a pan under the rug to save the floor.
 For an annual cleaning greater care is needed. After removing all spots, as l above brush the rug lightly with warm soapsuds, rubbing down with the nap, Then nail it face outward and nap down on the shady side bof the house and rinse well with cold water through the hose. When nearly dry lay rug face down on your attic floor and stretch well

FEWER FRocKs

A business woman discussing the price situation and the future, writes to ''Wo- mems Wear" as follows:
 Women are taking care of their things now. Most of us have fewer things than we have been used to hav' ing-just because things have been very high we have fewer frocks, fewer suits and fewer accessories. For instance. l am wearing a tricollette dress I paid sS5 fora few years ago that dress would have been expensive at $40. Instead of one S65 dress. I would probably have had two at $40, and I would probably have been rather careless with them. and discarded them before I had had as
 much wear out of them as I shall prob ably get out of the one I am wearing
 that cost s65
 Then, too, 1 looked around carefully ! before I bought it, and 1 looked upon l good things and they are taking care of them. and in the long run they are paying little more than they did before silk hose are another problem. Sill hose. few years ago, at s1.5o weren't | of great importance, and were discard
 ed when slightly worn. With $S th' | lowest price, and ones favorite host
 costing s5, you can believe me when
 say a little hole receives immediate at l tention.

UBIQUITOUS BAGS FOR WOMEN.

There are few occasions of a woman's life when she does not carry a bag. She .carries a bag to shop and she carries a bag to work, SC carries a bag to church and she carries a bag to market More over, she often carries bag to bed. She hangs it up beside her pillow and has it ready in case she should want any one of dozen little accessories in the night "a flashlight to see the clock, a cough drop if she chokes, a handkerchief if need be, ora chocolate drop if she wakes up hungry.
 And of course she has bags for the beach. There is one sort that contains
 bathing costume and accessories that she carries to the bath house and an other sort that she carries tualIy to the beach, containing her handkerchief and purse. If she merely loiters on the beach she carries this all the time If she goes in the water she entrusts this little bag to some one on the shore. Now not a few brides of the summer have carried delightful bags to the altar One carried by an aristocratic English 1 bride was a cobination of brocade to
 match her gown and crystal beads. She carried this in addition to a ranquet

HEIGHT OF TABLES SHOULD VARY

The height of woman's kitchen sink, wash tub and work table is an import ant factor in her well being and well doing. It takes more of her strength and tires her more to do the same amount of work when she has to bend over too far or hold her arms too high than when Sc is in a comfortable posi- tion.
 The following figures make a good general guide in finding the. correct height of working surface Each wo- man ought to find out for herself the working level at which she can work most easily and efficiently and see that her work table, wash tub and sink are adjusted accordingly. She should re- member that the working level of sink iss the bottom, the working level of a wash tub a point about half way be- tween the bottom and the top (where most of the work of scrubbing is done) and that for ironing lower surface is needed than for general work table.

frozen to blood stained ice at the
roadside between Perryopolis ana

Reports were to the effect that

exploded yesterday by Coroner s.

overwhelmingly that Thorp shot the
girl and then himself.
Fifteen cartridges Similar to
those taken from the bodies were
found in a pocket Of the coat worn
bv Thorp. A revolver was found TO-

discovered huddled together.
Coroner Baum yesterday went to
the home of Oliver Brewer, father
of the dead girl, and learned that
Thorpe, strangely in love with
Iihh had pleaded with her to elope
with him. Mrs. Brewer, Thorp,s
