LAUNDRY HINTS

Much time is saved in washing if clothes are soaked. Cold or barely warm water should be used.
 If the larger pieces of the ironing, such as sheets, counterpanes, etc, are folded andf used as a pad while the smaller pieces are being ironed, much. time can be saved, as the large pieces will need little more attention after you get around to them.
 After blankets have been washed and hung on the line and are thor oughly dry beat lightly with a car pet beater. The wool will become light and soft and wear like new
 If woOlen blankets are to be washed it is worth while to make a supply of soap solution by cutting the soap into sfnall pieces and boiling the water un- til dissolved. A good soap free from alkali should be used. A bar of soap makes enough soap solution for two pairs of blankets. The blankets are much softer than if the bar ot soar is used.
 The more pains that are taken ir drying the clothes the less pains vii have to be taken ill ironing them | If they are hung straight and folded l and stretched carefully when taking them from the line much time can bt l saved when time comes to iron. Clothe; | placed in the clothes basket any olC way become wrinkled and take mucl | longer to iron than those folded witt l some care.

DAINTY TRIMMINGS.

All white is a Canton crepe dress, trimmed with alternate rows of fagot- ting and hemstitehing, with softly folded Georgette sash. Gray Canton is used for pleated dress with plain waist and two-tier skirt, the wide belt trimmed with beaded design of flowers.
 Taffeta and organdie are cleverly combined, making a smart dress of rust color over black taffeta, with tiny taffeta ruches, traced in a French bow knot design, on the orGandie ovefskirt Ruches areA also used on the organdie models to outline medallions of lace or embroidery. Pastel shades are made into delightfully."- youthful models al this house, numbers of small ruffies being used on the skirts, and the necks cut quite low, to show dainty vests.
 A flame colered linen chemise dress strikes a decidedly smart note in its plain, slender lines and becoming square cut collar of white linen. The only trimming is rows of white ana flame linen buttons, and the little yes is wonderfully dainty, made as it is o l ergandie with tiny tueks and Valenci ennes lace.

THE ITALIAN ELECTION.

Italy, like some other countries, has been going through some trying experi- snces with radical clements. In the cleo ion previous to the one a week ago those who represented q dangerous policy seemed 10 get rather a strong foothold. IL caused many anxioAs moments for the Italian government. There were indica- lions of a tendency to yield to such ele- ments and 1t was one of the signs of weakness when an attitude of federation rather than one of opposition was mani tested toward the action of D'Annunzio at Plume. Under GioIitd as premier there was a different tone manifested, although for time during the industrial trouble grave fears were expressed that he radicals would succeed in getting he upper had.
 As 1t worked out, however, 1t appeared that he was following a well laid policy calculated to meet the conditions that existed and developments since that time nave shown justification for it, for from hat time a strengthening of the gov irnnenr has resulted.

WORTHY OF ATTENTION.

Coal is something in which most ev- eryone is interested to a greater or less degree. The public in general is inter- essed not only in getting a supply but in getting it at a price which is not re- garded as robbery. Because of the va ried experience it has had it isn't burden ed with any too much confidence in the situation surrounding the coal industry. Just as burnt child dreads the fire those who have been caught and squeez- ed are timid about getting into any more similar predicaments.
 For that reason full weight should be attached to the advice which has been given the association of coal producers by Secretary Hoover to the effect that they should put forth their best efforts in an endeavor to secure and hold the confidence of the public. They will make a mistake if they undertake to console themselves with the idea that they al ready have that much to be desired un, derstanding. There has in fact been too much to destroy such confidence ra. ther than sufficient amount of effort to establish it.
 In the belief of the secretary of com. merce there ought to be monthly state | ments of all the fundamental facts con corning their trade such as totals o1 production, stocks on hand, percentage l of production and average prices real lzed at the mines. That would enabl, the consumer to form an opinion or what he should pay for coal, make i more difficult to demand exorbitan prices and make 1t easier for the opera tors to interest the people in the filling of their bins at the time of year wher the business can be best handled with out having It felt by the public that tn operators were getting them to pay higher price by such step than woul' be the case If they waited until later il the season.
 The importance of having the conf dence of the public ought to appeal t the operators without waiting to hay it urged upon them. With such advic coming from outside it's own circle, how ever. there is all the greater reason wh
 it should not be allowed to pass withou
 reflection.

A DOLLS HOUSE.

Take a common egg crate. It is di- vided into two partitions. Stand it up- right, so you have two floors. Each can be divided into two with a partition of heavy cardboard in the center, making four rooms. A pretty window is cut out at the back of each and gay ere tonne Dutch curtains are put up. Any odd but of wall paper. can be used to paper it throughout, and some cover ings for the floors.
 Now you are ready to fit out your four rooms as desired. Home made tables, beds and chairs can be made and moved about at will. A couple of jointed ten cent dolls dressed up as ladies complete the home outfit and cretonne curtains hang over the en- tire front opening. The outside is all papered, and as a whole it is desira ble easy to move about and joy to any little girl.

TRANsPoRrATION BUsINEss.

Transportation is constantly undergo ing changes. First 1t is one influence and then another that provides or takes years ago that Norwich had daily ex- cursion boat and there were years when it had two or three of them in order to get the people to the shore resorts and provide days outing. Trolley de- velopment made serious inroads into the business done by such boats until for some years now it has been abandoned, But where the trolley was the means of attracting in other directions those who had been previously served by the boats, the trolley is today seriously bothered because of the many former patrons who are going by automobile on their outings and recreational trips Whether it is the flying machine that is going to decrease interest in motoring rests with the future to show.
 But 1t IS not here alone and it is not passenger service alone that is being af- fected by the motor vehicles The busi- ness men of Portland, Me, are at the present time not a little concerned over the curtailed steamship service between that city and Boston, There was a. time when this coastwise service was provided daily. Three trips a week are now made and the merchants are seeking the re- turn of the daily trips and setting forth that business must be provided not only to obtain such but to insure .the contin- nance of what Is already furnished. It is the same old story that has been re-enacted elsewhere repeatedly and it il plainly shown that if transportation ser. vice of any particular character is con | sidered desirable and necessary, and ii there is a feeling that increased service should be provided it rests with thos, who recognize the value of such servic, should be provided it rests with thos, who recognize the value of such ser
 vice to give it the patronage that vii
 make it possible to meet requirements None of the business men are going t
 continue in business if their particula
 enterprise doesn't make expenses. The. cannot expect others to do any different , Likewise they cannot expect to get coast
 wise steamboat service if they are goin
 to take their business away therefror . and give it to competitors

WHEN DO YOU MEND

It is out of the question usually to do mending before clothes are washed. Moreover, it would be inconvenient if washday comes on Monday. However, there are certain things that always should be mended before being sent to the laundry either the home laundry or the outside laundry. A sheet that has a small hole when it goes to the laundry may come back with a three corner tear, and the sheet that has a three corner tear may come back with long rept. Some housewives change sheets Saturday so that time may be found before Monday morning to mend rents or tears.
 If your laundry is. done at home then mending should be done as much as
 possible before the ironing is done For
 this reason many housewives try to
 devote Monday evening to this work The things that need to be ironed may be mended then in time to be ironed
 Tuesday and the other things, such as stockings, may be ironed the next day or evening.
 Many housewives never permit clothes to be put away until they have been well mended. They keep a mend ing basket handy and find time for the
 mending between household tasks. The woman who does her own ironing sometimes finds it pleasant relief to ] iron and mend the same day, having a mending bag and an easy chair in 1 the kitchen or laundry. When she be- | comes fatigued with standing behind 1 the ironing board she rests by mendins l for an hour, and when mending be- comes tiresome she goes back to the ironing. In this way she makes it un-
 necessary togo over the clothes more 1 than once. As she sorts them for
 ironing she lays those aside that need l buttons replaced or holes or rents | mended.

4 BUSINESS ApMINrsrRArroN.

Reference has been made to the fact that the present administration has been giving the city a conscientious, business like conduct of it's affairs, and such ref erencs has been based upon accomplish nent-
 In spite of it's handScaps the street de- partment faced the job of putting Water street in shape. That was in wretehed condition. There was an estimate that 1t could be repaired for the sum of S1. 900 which would mean that it would go for year or two and then be jast as had as ever. No appropriation was made for 1t but the present department in or der to care for the heavy travel put in n permanent concrete road an improve ment of decided value, at cost of s5 900 instead of attempting repairs and having the job to do over again in a shc-- time. It was a business proposi- ton handled in a businesslike manner and will mean Q big saving to the tax payers.
 In that same section attention has been given to the fire hazards and much needed increased protection has been provided by the putting in of a twelve inch water main that will deal with con ditions there for many years to come. For a decade efforts have been made to have that added protection in the heart of the business section given. It has been attended to because it was needed and that is good business
 The main highway leading out of the city by way of North Main street has been in frightful shape for a long time At the last city meeting an appropriation of S50.0O0 was sought, but no one spoke for it and it was passed. The city ad ministration has dealt with this road problem under the bond issue, a part o which is 10 be paid each year, and ther, permanent pavement. pavement whicl will not require large outlays every year Is now being put down and in succeed ng years other main thoroughfares vii DC similarly treated, assuring roads tha are a credit 10 the city not immediatel, after they are built but for long tern of years Such means the cheapest il the end and that shows consideration fo the taxpayers interests, or business rath CT than politics.
 An admin istratIon giving it's attention to such matters in such commendabl manner cannot fail to set the endorse ment of the voters at the polls the frs Monday in June.

Watch ror.r. in Forest,

In deciding to erect a chain Of steel watch towers between Marquette and Keweenaw Counties as a protective meas ure against forest fires, the state is zdopt- ing what ought 10 prove a practical and valuable device worth employment in many parts of Michigan. says the De- troit Free Press. The first tower is to be si1ty-6ve feet high and presumably the tallness of the others will depend somewhat~upon the topography of the re- zion. At any rate the scheme is to make one visible from the top of it's neighbor. and are to be connected by telephone and are to be equipped with field glasses. compasses and other necessary toola
 The value of this will at once be plain to anybody who has had experience with forest fires. One of the big things in preventing disastrous conhagrations Is the ability to find and quench incipient blsz- es before they get beyond control. This is the ounce of prevention that is worth the pound of cure. But in deep forests rangers have hitherto often been obliged to depend upon good luck 10 help them keep their district clear. If the wind is the wrong way 2 man may pass within a short distance Of a blaze and never suspect it's presence A watch tower system porperly run would be a great assistance in overcoming this handicap.

SUGGESTIONS FOR

T " INN WI V A salad made with chopped cab bags, grated raw carrots and some chopped peanuts is delicious.
 When making apple pie roll a few gratings of cheese into the crust. The taste" is delicious.
 Always put the fresh napkins, hand kerchiefs and towels in the bottom of the pile when putting away. In this way they will all be used.
 A spoonful or more of lemon juice or good vinegar added to the apples that do not cook readily will hasten the process and improve the flavor when making apple sauce.
 To make "chAese dreams" cut thin slices of bread at least one day old, spread with soft cheese and press into sandwiches; fry in butter. They are delicious.
 Beat a pinch of soda into a custard cooked a moment too long, and it will entirely change its consistency.
 Pieces of cloth or paper dipped in turpentine will keep moths and car pet bugs away.
 Tar paper put among blankets is good to keep moths away. Vaseline stains are hard to remove; before washing they should be soaked in kerosene.
 Sift a little flour over cakes before icing; it will prevent the icing iron running off.
 Turn the colander upside down ovel 1 fish or meat when frying in a pan 1 the small holes prevent spattering, ye allow the steam to escape.

 You have no idea how much cozi- ness will be added to the bedroom by merely slipping a cover over the head and the foot of the bed.
 Such covers are easily made. Cut a pattern first in stiff paper the size of the bedStead so your mea sure ments will be accurate. The covers should be made to tie with tapes, the tapes being so placed that they can be tied below the point where the mattress comes.
 Shades to harmonize we'll with the paper of the room should be selected

PROTECTING COUNTRY PROPERTY.

There has been passed in the upper house of the state legislature a bill which prohibits the transportation of Christmas trees and other trees bear ing foliage along public highways unless those possessing the trees are prepared 10 show the written permission of the owner of the property from which they were taken.
 This of course seems Ike a lot of un- necessary red tape but it is taken for the purpose of protecting that large class Of country residents who have a right 10 expect that they be permitted to dis pose Of their property as they desire, to sell it or to give 1t away, but not have ir subject to the depredations of those who look upon anything that grows in the country as sort of free for any who seek 1t and are prepared to come after it.
 Not much is done in Connecticut In ca tering to the Christmas tree trade. Yet those upon whose land such trees grow have a right to feel that they should at least be consulted before their property Is carted away for the use of the per son taking it or possibly for sale. The practice of making free with trees and crops has grown to a surprising degree within the last decade or so. That the motor car has increased 1t is possible be- -ause the machine brings the outlying districts much nearer. Though the talk .ng Of Christmas trees is invariably prac- iced in a different spirit than the talk l1g Of crops, yet of course 1t Is taking possession of another's property and such a law as that adopted by the sen ate makes it possible for authorities tc cheek up on all such cases. That the law is intended 10 discourage the prac. tice rather than the prosecution of those engaged Tn 1t is believed, and inasmucf IS the possession of such property with out the required permission of the ownel opens up complications it ought to b. helpful in causing people to refrain iron carrying off property to which they hay, no right The written permission over comes any doubt in the minds of author tics. providing of course sueh document are genuine.
