DARNING SOCKS

The subject of darning stockings
is one in which every woman is in
terested because she must attend to
1t at least once in two weeks if not
oftener, In the first place a hole is
never Qnite so large as it looks. In
the wash It is sure to have become
stretched and out of shape. If then,
instead Of stretching it still further
over a darning egg, the edges are
smoothed out and pulled gently tow
ard each other it will diminish per
ceotihly in size The next thing is to
find out in which direction it has
worn most.
Some holes. by a little manipulation
can be reduced to mere slit. When
this is the case. with ordinary fine
sewing cotton. draw the slit evenly to-
gether. not with overcasting, but like
lacing shoe. This can be darned
neatly. and it will never be noticed
by the wearer if fine darnine cotton
When making over knitted under
garments. the seams should be run

ing and all seams should be lain open

SINK OF RIGHT HEIGHr

One or more of the following ideas
may help you to reduce the time and
ease with which yon do your dish
washing. The height of the sink
must be adjusted to the height of
the worker and be sufficiently high
SO that she can work without the
slightest STOPPING. The sink must be
deep enough to allow the dishpan
to stand well below the surface, so
that no water can slop over on the
floor or worker. To permit easy and
rapid laying down motion of each dish
without crossing of left arm over the
right. the stacking surface must be
at the right and the draining board at
the left. For left-handed person
these must be reversed, of course.
Thorough scraping makes the actual
washing far easier.

WASH STAINED FINGERS IN

II your fingers are stained from
peeling fruit or vegetables, din them
in strong tea for a few minutes, then
wash them in clean warm water.
TO MAKE A STRONG EDGE.
When erocheting an edge around
the neck of a gown. or anything of
this sort. take a piece of common
white Irvine. double it. hold on the
underside of the garment: work over
this into the edge of the goods. The
goods will roll over the Irvine as you
proceed. and will prevent tearing
down. If the Irvine is heavy, one
thickness will be sufficient.

left his entire fortune TO the city of
Nice. he overlooked an cventuslity
which is now causing perturbation in
the city council. Meynhccr van
Steendyck executed the will in 1904
One of its stipulations was that on
the acceptance of the bequest. which
is considerably more than a million
francs, the municipal councillors
should repair in a body to a certain
hotel in Nice and there partake of a
banquet in his honor. He fixed the
price at 15 francs a plate.
Fifteen francs "A plate was rea-
sonable price for meal. even in Nice.
in 1904. but in this year of grace 1920,
with the cost of living soaring be-
tween meals. and in the particular
restaurant picked by the testator. 10
francs is just about what the waiter
who serves a meal expects as a tip.

BIC COAL MEN ASK
FREIGHT CAR ORDER
Want !. C. C. to CurtaiI AIIot-
ment to Owners of
Small Mines,

AS a part of the campaign for bet
ter car supply TO overcome the exist
ing shortage of soft coal, bituminous
operators in the National Coal Asso-
citation have urged the Interstate
Commerce Commission to take drastic
steps to regulate the distribution of
open top car equipment TO small
wagon" mines, hundreds of which
have sprung into activity since the
coal shortage developed.
1t is estimated that there are up
wards OF 5000 mines of this character
throughout the bituminous coal fields.
These so-called wagon" mines are a
speculative field. They are located
from one half mile to five miles away
from railway switch. and have to
haul their output by wagon or motor
truck to the tracks, The mines hav-
ing only a small tonnage, draw upon
the railroads daily for equipment,
tying up cars at the switches because
OF their slow method Of loading coal.
Hundreds Of cars which are needed
to overcome this shortage in equip
ment at mines where facilities exist
for quick loading are in this way
tied up.
Advices from the btuminous fields
throughout the country show that in
nearly every field SNOW bird" or
mushroom mines. ordinarily not in
operation. have sprung into activity
within the past few months. These
mines universally deal with specu-
lators, who sell coal at eXhorbitant
prices.
