Several Uses for Lemon Juice

Lemon juice and rose water is
an excellent tan remover.
For rust, ink and mildew on
white, goods, nothing is better than
lemon juice. Moisten salt with
lemon juice and spread over stains,
then lay the garment in the sun.
An excellent lotion for removing
stain from the hands is made by
mixing four tablespoons lemon
juice, two ounces glycerine, two
ounces water and a few drops of
carbolic acid. Shake the mixture
we'll before using.
Lemon juice and water will re-
move tartar from the teeth and
sweeten the breath if used as 8
tooth wash.

Cynic Pays Us His Respects

Another man is comparing us
unfavorably with the bellies of the
African Jungle as to beauty. This
time it is DR.. Frederick Starr of
Chicago University, who declares
that there is no real beauty in the
United States He holds that
we are too much of a mixture,
from racial standpoint, to be
beautiful.
"Our standards of beauty" he
asserts, would be denied by any
European nation. Only among Lii
berian and kindred races is real
beauty to be found. The Korean
yellow race quite frequently sur
passes us in specimens of beauty.
The Igorrotes of the Worlds Fair
were marveled at for their physical
attributes
DR.. Starr further states that
Beauty in blond race is next to
impossible. 1t is more difficult fer
blonde to measure up TO beauty
standards than it is for brunette. !"

A Plot That Failed

A woman's shrewd scheme for
winning the sympathy of a jury
and court broke down Unexpected
ly in Detroit a few days ago.
She had been arrested for steal
ing coal. When she = came into
court, she was carrying pair Of
twin babies, one an each arm. The
sight was one to arouse pity and
was work ng admirably until the
prosecution made the point that
she had no children. When the
court asked whose twins she was
mothering, it turned out that she
had borrowed them from neigh
Dor
Dense as the men are under
stood to be, they were able in this
case to see through the plot. She
got the limit.

A Problem Of the New Age

A question that is in the back
ground at Washington just now,
but that will some time have to be
faced squarely, is that of the right
of fecund nation to demand more
room when it becomes crowded.
This is the condition which has
caused Japan to become menace
to other countries in recent years.
The Japanese people have multi
piled beyond the capacity of the
home country to support them and
are still propogating as fast as
ever. In some way, more room
must be found; yet if this were
done, it seems probable that ere
long the new home would be over
flowing just as is the present one.
The question is, Has she, or any
nation, moral right to encroach
upon other peoples in this manner?
Ii so, is there any limit to such
