lot: II am voting for you major

votes were cast for the kaiser on the

SOAP AND SOCKS IN sUMATRA
Wearing Of Hosiery 10 an indication
That the Wearer Earns at Least
go Z Month.

Soap and socks In Sumatra-ten
years ago the obseryant mind OF
consulate representative Of the United
States in that island would have de-
voted less thought to such matters,
but now the Observation-Disclosures OF
commerce gives soap and socks In SUI
matra their place In the sun. The
natives. 1t appears from recent con-
sular report, are more and more taks
ing to wearing socks. Those SIM
pie garments of extremities, one
judges, are becoming an indication
that the wearer earns at least $2O
month. American socks are well
thought of. as are American soaps,
but more socks and soaps from Amer
lea can be sold in Sumatra II the
American dealers In these commodi-
ties will give more thought to local
taste In decorating the boxes or wrap
pers in which they go on sale in the
bazaars. These buyers In Sumatra,
like their soaps and socks done up in
bright colored containers; In fact.
they are inclined to judge the con-
tents by the beauty. from their point
of view. of the box. The picture of
an American manufacturing plant
leaves them cold. nor do they care
for a wrapper decorated with land
scape in colors. Particularly in the
matter Of hosiery. they like the box
decorated with some brightly colored
picture which catches the eye and ap-
peals to the Imagination by Its "hu-
man interest" One judges that II
would be good policy for American
dealers In soaps and socks to discard
their present containers and employ
some Of the artists who make covers
for the popular magazines to design
and paint them new ones particularly
for the Sumatra Christian
Science Monitor.

SHOULD BE MELTED TOGETHER
Color Should Be Set Before Washing

Manufacturers endeavor to set the
color of the dyes In their fabrics, but are
not always able to fix them permanent
ly. Special treatment before washing
will sometimes help, according to Farm
ers' Bulletin 1899 on home laundering
recently Issued by the United States
Department of Agriculture. Various
chemicals may be used, but some Of
them are poisonous and for that reason
undesirable. Common salt Ia measure
bly, effective for setting most dyes, but
is not likely TO have permanent effect,
and the process may need to be repeated
whenever the garment is Numbered. No
special rule can be given as to the
amount Of salt to use; about one cup OF
salt to two gallons of water is good
proportion TO try, and more salt may be
added until the color stops BLEEDING"
The color 10 more likely to be set II the
material can be left in the salt water
over night rather than for q shorter
time, and II 1t can be dried before wash
ing. Sometimes salt is put in the f1nsl
rinsing water In laundering colored
goods. Soap Is less effective In water to
which salt has been added.
Colored clothes 10 general should be
washed in lukewarm water and neutral
soap solution, and the fabric squeezed
rather than rubbed, according to the
bulletin. Unless the color Is fast, no
oolored clothes should be soaked for
any length of time, nor should they be
boiled or exposed to too high temper
allure In washing, rinsiDg, starching, or
ironing. If the color seems very deli.
cate, very cool water Is advisable, and
soapbark, bran or cooked starch water
should be used instead of soap. With a
color likely to fade or run, rapid wash-
ing is safest; the material should be
wrung Is dry as possible and rolled in
cloth to absorb extra moisture; an even
safer way IL to shake the garment dry.
For dark oolors 1t IL we'll to tint the
starch; for example, tea may be used
Tor blacks, browns and green's, and blu.
ing for blues, and the specially prepared
starch for blacks. Colored
,lotbes should be dried In the shade and
should not be allowed to freeze. They
should be ironed on the wrong side.

Natural Wonders.

When waters charged with carbon
ate Of calcium derived from limestone
are evaporated they deposit masses
Of the carbonate, some of which are Of
great beauty. This process can be OBJ
served at many warm and "petrifying"
springs and also in limestone caverns
were stalactites and stalagmites are
being formed. according to the United
States geological survey. Mexican
"onyx" Is formed in this way. Its
variations In color and texture, which
make It attractive and valuable as an
ornament, are commonly produced by
impurities or inclusions, such as oxide
of iron, or even mud and clay.

WHAT COOPERATION DID
 IN WRANGELL

That the first Chautauqua ever held in Wrangell showed a bal ance of $34. 50 instead of a deficit is a matter that reflects credit upon the community. If a Chau- tauqua could go over the top this year when the general financial depression caused some doubt as to the advisability of having an entertainment of such magnitude, it will surely succeed next year when there is every indication that there will be greater pros perity throughout the land, and, convinced of this, 30 citizens have signed a contract for next year and are receiving encouragement from other interested individuals and from organizations that in- sures successful Chautauqua season next fall. After all, it is chiefly a matter of cooperation.
 By getting together, a few of the citizens made it possible to provide high class, instructive entertainment for the people of Wrangell who appreciate the val ue of it. Beside giving good pro- grams, members of the Chautau- qua visited the school and talked to the children and entertained them with readings and music, leaving with them something that will never be forgotten. If, by the cooperation of a few, good things can be accomplished, what would be the result if the people as a whole would get together and work for those things that make for the up-building and the prosperity of a community? h. tensive, intelligent effort and unity of purpose is a force that seldom fails.
 The Chautauqua taught several truths; and one of the greatest of these is the value of coopera- tion.
