out a flourish. After the meal, at a
restaurant or formal dinner, lay 1t I'M
folded at your place. If you are
time guest In the household and will
remain another meal, you may fold
the napkin in its. original creases.
Never put the end of spoon into
your mouth, sip everything from the
side of the spoon, and do this noise
lessly. Never use a spoon when a
fork will serve. Forks are now often
used for eating ice cream. and salad
is folded or cut with the side of a
fork. never with the knife. Even small
vegetables like peas are eaten with a
fork.
Never hold your knife and fork up
In the air when your host Is serving
you afresh. Lay them on one side of
the plate when you send ii to the
host by servant or your neighbor at
table.
Never leave your spoon in coffee or
tea cup. Lay It on the saucer.
Never cool food by blowing upon It
Wait until It becomes cool enough to
eat.
Never take a second helping at o
large and formal dinner. You will find
yourself eating alone.
Never make yourself conspicuous In
any way by aiding the host or hostess
IN serving, unless especially asked tC
do so. or In passing dishes when serv'
ants are provided for that purpose.
Never push back your plate ant
finger crumbs at the conclusion of the
meal. 1t indicates undue haste.

French Object to Their Appearing On
 Stage Without Clothes.

Paris, May 1.-The after-war or gie of pleasure in cosmopolitan cen- ters has developed so much daring li- cense in Paris that the minister of justice has taken the matter in hand and called a sharp halt to the gradual shrinkage in amount of dress worn on the stage and continual increase in ioosenesa of speech.
 Everything approaching obscenity must be cut out of stage representa- tions, he declares, and dramatic ar lists and music hall singers must be clad. Otherwise, the artists and the directors responsible for the charactei of the attractions offered to the public will be prosecuted.
 The press praises the minister for his courage and proposes a general movement in favor of the uplifting of dramatic productions.

THE AUSTIN STEAM LAUNDRY,

You can quickly solve the problem
OF family washing by bundling II. up
and sending it to the Austin Steam
Laundry every week. Sending your
wash to the laundry takes the blue
out of blue Monday for the house
wife, and in addition if you make a
careful comparison of the cost of do
ing the washing at home and sending
it to this laundry, you will find that
the balance is in favor of sending it
out. They do all kinds of family wash
rough dry, and hand ironed, also
bundle work. When you send your
collars to the Austin Steam Laundry
you will find that they last longer than
when they come from most OTHER laun-
dries. You are also saved the annoy
ance OF rough edges, which make you
irritable and swear at yourswife. They
also maintain dry cleaning depart
ment and do first class cleaning and
pressing. One can't, afford to throw
away his last years suit when he can
take Ito the Austin Steam Laundry
and have it cleaned and pressed and
have it look like new.

caused by the shortage OF farm labor.
For years these two. lines have been
the standards on the farm and have
