SOILED CLOTHES

Can anything be more absurd than
laundry bag that is made of silk
and satin and can not readily be
washed? The first essential in the
container OF soiled clothes is that it
should be so durable and so water
proof and so simple that it can be
washed every week, whether it is a
basket or bag.
A laundry chute should be thor
oughly aired once a week Other
wise it is really a menage in the
house and you would be far better
off not to have this convenience.
The most sanitary of all soiled
clothes containers is the kind used in
many hospitals. 1t consists Of white
iron frame about the size of an ordi-
nary clothes hamper, and on this are
stretched sides of duck that can be

should be taken to air them out thor

hampers, of course. have the disad-
vantage OF containing SO many crooks
and crannies that harbor dust. How
ever, it you paint them with white
paint and after this dries give them

keep them in good condition by an
occasional washing. A good way is to
use bathroom spray on them, after
which they should be wiped dry and

1t is not a good idea to keep a
clothes hamper or bag in closed

dition. If the basket is porous and

1t is interesting to glance over
the figures Of the last Presidential
election and the estimates made bv
Mrs. Livermore in regard to the one
coming. New York gave Hughes 1O9,-
698 votes more than Wilson. This
year the Republicans look for ma
jority of 100000. New Jersey went
Republican by 5I707 more votes than
the Democrats polled. This year the
Republicans look for a majority over
all parties Of $4,000.
Pennsylvania is counted on for a
majority of 100000, as against an
excess of Republican over Demo
cratic votes last election of onlv
l81 $50. Rhode Island in 1916 split
almost even, giving the Republicans
4,464 more than it gave the Demo
Gratis, but Delamare was even closer
the Republicans running up only l.
25S more than the Democrats. The
estimated majority for the Republi-
can party in the coming election is
