'sPile the family in an automobile

where they can get a whiff Of nature
and the cause of marital wrangling is
removed, this elderly Judge asserts
.'The stuffy air of apartment houses
the uneyentfulness of being penned
in the home with nothing but the four
walls of a hous to look at, make peo-
pie irritable and quarrelsome. Nature
never meant that man should live in

That is what Judge Ashley preach

he breaches as nearly as he can.

$4,000 Decisions.
In the fifteen years that Martin G,
Ashley has held down the job as
Judge at Woodbridge, he has handed
down more than $4,000 judicial decis-
ions, many of them regarding marital
difficulties, and in all that time not
one of his dictums has ever been re-
yersed by a higher court.
The Judge is bachelor Yet he
has the difficult role of settling hun
dreds Of disputes between husbands
and wives and between parents and
children. Hayward boys, who go
wrong simply because of their pent-up
lives in circumscribed home surround
ings, out more for lark than for in
territorial wrong doing, come before
him daily. He always says they could
be corrected better by climbing INTO
the automobile with their parents and
getting adventure in the country than
by stern rebukes from Judge.
A large number Of people go before
Judge Ashley every year, expecting
him to start the ball rolling for a di.'

Features of Wet and Dry Cleansing
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

A solution of soap and water, perhaps
alone, and perhaps with some other
solvent added such as ammonia, may
be used. Or the garments may be
soaked and washed in soap bark with
out any other cleansing agent. Soap
bark is especially good for black goods
and dark wooden materials. But Wa
ter in some form is essential to wet
cleansing.
s,fmple Process.
Clothes that are wet cleansed. when
not immersed, have the solution ap-
piled to them, either with a cloth or a
brush wet with 1t. A skirt, for ex-
ample, or a dress may be put over a
board or kitchen table, and be sponged
and brushed with the solution, and
then be rinsed with pure hot or tepid
water as suits the goods best. 1t may
then be patted until part Of the mots-
ture Is gone, and be ironed immedi-
ately, having a clean dry cloth put
over 1t before being pressed. Such a
process is wet cleansing, but not laun-
derinG.
Dry Liquids.
Dry cleansing may employ a dry
liquid" as the agent is one sometimes
termed a dry liquid, one that evapo-
rates SO rapidly that it soon leaves the
fabric drv not wet. even though II
has been immersed in the liquid. Gas
oline, benZine, naphtha, ether and sew
eral other liquids come under this
heading.
Dry Cleansing Agents.
Actual dry stuffs frequently are dry
cleansing agents, such for example as
fuller's earth. French chalk, bran, and
sometimes salt that has been heated.
Garments have one of these mediums
lightly, but thoroughly. brushed into
them, and then as gently, but entirely,
brushed out, carrying with 1t the
grease. which has been absorbed. and
the dirt which has darkened and spoil
ed the appearance of the garment.
Not infrequently both the dry liquid
and the actual dry cleansing agents
are used for cleaning a single article.
Dry Cleansing Process.
Dry cleansing, as done by establish
ments. is work for experts. Garments
are put in sealed chambers and dry
liquid of some sort is forced into it.
This dissolves grease. Then, after a
certain length of time, the garments
are further cleaned by suction, and by
mechanically worked brushes. These
various treatments cleanse the articles
from dust dirt and grease. Spots that
have not come out are specially treat
ed. Few entirely resist. After articles
are cleansed. they are pressed by eX-
pertS who do this work as no others
can.
1t is a mistake to hurry the dry
cleansing. for this means that gar
ments cannot be aired long enough TO
eliminate colors of cleansing agents,
and the pressing if done too soon
tenders fabrics, especially silk.

All she saw was killy drop down into

Now Black Pussy had just as soon

was so near that Black Pussy couldn't
resist the temptation to run swiftly
toward him in hope that she would be
quick enough to catch him before he
was fairly in the air again. But II
was a vain hope. killy saw Black
Pussy and you should have heard him
shrek at her. He hovered over her
only a little way up, Shr1eking and
scolding. Black Pussy glared up al
him and lashed her tail, and all the
time Nanny Meadow Mouse was max

ran for the point where Danny Mea

knew that there must be safety there
She knew that there must be a hiding

had meant safety for Danny.

see Black Pussy pick up Danny's
limp little form in her teeth. She kept
them shut as long as she could, which
wasn't long at all. She just had to
see what was going on. The instant
she opened them she knew that Danny
had escaped, though how she hadn't
the least idea at first. Black Pussy s
tail was twitching angrily. and Black
Pussy herself was working at an old
fallen limb. Then Nanny guessed that
there was hole in it and that Danny
was inside, safe and sound.
Now, all this time Nanny had been

had forgotten to watch out for trouble
for herself. That is something that
no little person In the Green Meadows

TO do. Nanny found this out now to
her sorrow.
Just what made Nanny look up she
doesn't know to this day. 1 guess it
must have been a good fairy, don't

is a good thing for Nanny and for

Doctor Wood declared the public
as a whole is at least twenty years

Parents Receive Shock.
The parent of six-year-old child
today just entering school looks
back over a period of at least
twenty years to his own childhood
and assumes the child is entering
the portals Of school under exactly
the. sarue conditions as he did
years ago. Wood said.
But when the child comes trot-
ting home with a reader that be-
gins with a fairy tale, instead of
the traditional patter about the
well-known cat and rat, the fond
parent begins to have doubts about
our educational system" declared
Wood.

he asks Johnny what the letter
