IRON all parts of the country

First. permit me to urge all in

whole boy and the whole girl and
not merely a part can do little
to help with the play problem, UNI
less you allow me to connect it with
the work problem. J can help only
incidentally with these unless you
consider their relations TO the So
cial problem and the religious
problem.
Your active interest in the young
must square with the entire Juvenile
society and with human society in
general Let us cease to waste our
time temporizing and give more
thought to the idea of making every
boy ard every girl wholesomely,
happily human.
Now, to make your effort most
lasting and effective, consider your
young proteges in relation to the
outline Of the four great world
wide human interests given in the
outline below. Try to provide that
everyone has full. sedsonsble
human share in some aspect OF each
OF the four age-old instincts or
racial interests. Then you may ex-

TALKS WITH T. r. BY John J. Leary,

TALKS WITH T. r. BY John J. Leary.
jr New York: Houshton, Mifhin Co.
Mr.. Leary. through close personal
association with the greatest
American" has been enabled to COM
pile this anthology collection OF
typically Rooseveltian expressions
of opinion and sentiment on some
problems of DAYS past and some
that have a very distinct and po-
tent bearing on problems present.
The book, handsome volume in
itself. is in the nature OF series
Of conversations between Mr.. Leary
and the former President, and en-
braces the remarks of Roosevelt on
a multitude of topics.
Naturally, the book breathes the
very spirit of T. r. 1t is a volume
that will be treasured by all those
who, while in many cases they may
not have agreed with Teddy, ad-
mired the man and his character. 1t
is valuable addition to the many
works on Roosevelt, his character
and his life.
A Characteristic that makes the
book all the more interesting and
virile is the fact that the obser-
vations and remarks are written
in either Roosevelt's own words, as
jotted down from time to time by
Mr.. Leary during his association
with the former President. or In as
nearly his own words as Mr.. Leary's
evidently remarkable memory can
supply. For this reason, there is
peculiar pungency and decisiveness
to the matter of which the volume
is made up that makes il a work
somewhat unique in biographical
books.
Whether one liked Roosevelts
ideas or not, whether or not one
agreed with tho man, one must find
much in Talks With T. r." to in
struct, to elucidate, and even to en-
terrain,

Household
Suggestions

When colored or patterned ma
terials in which the colors may run
are washed one teaspoonful of blue
black ink added to the tub of water
will set the colors at once and for
all. Black and white goods espe-
cially have an unpleasant habit OF
drying with brownish stripes, but
the small quantity OF ink quite pre-
vents this, and they will come out
like new things.
To make coffee in a Jug without
boiling. first warm the jug. then
measure out the coffee. say a good
teaspoonful for each cup, pour the
boiling water on to it. stir well,
cover it over and let II stand for
Ave minutes; then stir it round
again. put tablespoonful of cold
water and a good pinch OF salt in
to fine 1t, cover up. and let II stand
for ten minutes. when it will be
ready for use Serve with hot milk.
Velvet that has been spotted with
rain should not be brushed. Shake
the velvet and leave it, The water
will evaporate and show no mark
unless the velvet was dusty before
getting wet In that case wipe the
velvet while still rain damped with
a clean damp cloth. This will re-
move the dust. Then Shake well
and leave to dry.
In ironing garments on which
there are hooks and eyes care
should be taken not to press the
hooks so that they have to be pried
open in order to use again The
best way to prevent this to place
a folded towel underneath the part
on which the hooks are sewn. When
ironed on the folds OF the towel the
hooks will remain as good as new.
