My good friend Henry Tun-
kett is a many-sided man.
He'll take hand in any game,
an play the best he can. :.
So fur as eddication goes, he
ant a shinin' light,-but he
wouldn't fool with nothin' that
he didn't think was right.
I've heard him prattle half a
day, about the war in Greece,
and, he'd slam the dad-burn tar
if like a jestice of the peace
He'd farm it fer a season if the
idea hit him square-then, swap
it fer barber shop, an go to
cuttin' hair!
II you search among the
clergy, you will hardly find a
man; that can preach better

can. And, while the woods

Faint: To remove paint from win
dow glass use hot, strong vinegar.
Lace: To dry clean lace roll if in
hot flour for an hour or so-then rub
it lightly and shake well. 1t will be per
tectly clean and look like new.
Fruit Tart: When baking fruit tarts
rub the bottom crust with the white
OF an egg. This will prevent the Juice
from soaking through.

Iodine Stains: To remove iodine
stains from starched material soak
stained parts in ammonia diluted with
water.
Kitchen Towels: When washing the
kitchen towels add little borax to
the water. The borax removes the dirt
and grease, gives good color and acts
as disinfectant.
Burn: The white of an egg applied
to a burn or a scald will stop the
pain.
Salt: If too much salt has been add
ed to any dish add a little sugar and
just drop or two of vinegar This
often takes away the salty taste.
Rust: Rub kerosene on your kitch-
en- sink to remove rust
90
Paint brushes: To remove dried
paint from paint brushes, soak the
brush for one night in water to which
has been added one teaspoonful of
soda. Wash the following day in plen-
ty ot warm, soapy water. If this does
not take the paint out, soak the brush
in equal parts of linseed oil and tur-
pentine.
Whip Cream: If whipped cream is
sweetened with a teaspoonfu1 of honey
instead OF sugar, it will have a better
flavor and will stay stiff longer.
Putty: To keep putty soft add a lit
tie olive oil.

WOMEN PREFER DAY
TRAINS TO SLEEPERS

CHICAGO, April 22.-Night rail
road travel by women Is diminish
ing, the Wabash railroad finds. Tn
like men they are turning to day
light riding as the more pleasuable
and convenient, judging by a survey
of John Maloney, assistant general
passenger agent.
at was not long ago that night
travel was about evenly divided be-
tween men and women" Mr.. Ma
loney said. "Our survey shows that
in our Chicago-St. Louis service.
only Is per cent of the night pa
irons are women while on the day
trains 70 per cent are women. This
is due in large measure TO comforts
and general conveniences afforded
them on day trains.
Women travelling alone, or with
children especially, have forsaken
night travel and almost all of the
roads are arranging for increased
comfort of this class of travel.
ut is quite differer1t with men,
who as time saver alone, prefer
to do their travelling at night"
