sought to remedy the defect and to
save the money required for the pur-
pose OF expensive flowers by arrnng'
ing with a gardener to let him have
bouquet from time to time In return
for his cast-0ff clothes.
One day he received a bunch OF
roses which he at once dispatched to
his lady love.
In sure anticipation of a friendly
welcome he called at the girls house
the same evening and was not little
surprised at frosty reception.
After pause the girl remarked,
frlgldly: "You sent me note today

Acid. Removes Stain on Zinc

Zinc darkens with use. but may be
frightened by the use of scourers. Zinc
on floors, under stoves, apd in like
places, should be secured with bath
brick and kerosene, washed and
rinsed with water, and wiped dry, the
United States Department of yAgricul-
ture says. Zinc on tables, or wherever
likely to come in contact with food.
should be secured with bath-brick and
water. Acid, as in vinegar OK lemon
juice, may be used TO remove stains
ON zinc, but should be thoroughly
washed off; otherwise. the zinc will
tarnish again very soon.

care. Wash the ice before it is put

is advisable to inspect the contents of
the refrigerator frequently for spoiled
food. Anything spilled should be
wiped up Immediately. Have the re-

ator which was moved up from the
cellar to the back entry, thus saving
