In answer to a request for a poem
from Mrs. A. L. M. Perhaps the
reader has in mind the tribute made
by William Cullen Bryant to his
later his wife, In the
poem.
o FAIREST OF THE RURAL
MAIDS
o fairest OF the rural maids
Green boughs, and glimpses of the sky,
Were all that met thine infant eye.
Thy sports. thy wsnderings, when . child.
Were even in the sylvan wild;
And all the beauty OF the place
Is in thy heart and on thy face.
The twilight of the trees and rocks
Is in the light shade OF thy locks:
Thy step is as the wind, that weaves
It's playful way among the leaves.
Thine eyes are springs. in whose serene
And silent waters Heaven is seen:
Their lashes are the herbs that look
On their young figures In the brook.
The forest depths. by foot Impressed.
Are not more sinless than thy breast;
The holy peace, that nils the air
OF those calm solitudes, is there.

Nail polish may be removed by
sponging with cotton daubs dipped
in acetone, which may be purchased
at most any drugstore. AS soon as
all polish has been dissolved by the
acetone, wash with mild soap and
lukewarm water. This will not harm
the usual fast-color dyes of cotton
materials.
Also for (2) have removed grease
spots from tablecloth by first soaking
spots with mild soap and cold water
for about Is minutes, then pouring
vigorously boiling water from tea
kettle or saucepan directly through
the spots. Wash as usual and stain
should be gone.
Now I have two requests for in

BURNED ALUMINIUM.

From Mrs. F. r., Washington
Several times I have frightened
pure aluminium pans and q cast
aluminium kettle very badly burned
by turning them upside down over
q gas flame (burner of stove) and
thus burning off the black. Do not
allow the edge Of the pan to touch
the flame. 1t will melt the alum
mum. Lift thepa and watch care
fully every minutes while doing
other work In the kitchen. 1t may
take a half hour or even longer.
The black substance will turn to a

cooled enough to wipe with cloth.

Recently I set hot dish on my
polished walnut dining room table
There was a protective felt-base
table pad on the table at the time
but the dish was evidently hot
enough to allow the heat to pene-
trate the pad. The heat took the
felt right off the pad and tran
ferred it to the table top. I have
tried a little luke warm water on
the spot, but the furry felt and mark
of the hot dish remain. Tried furni-

perience and can help me out.

OPA AGAIN DENIES
MARKUP FOR DIRECT
LUMBER SHIPMENTS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s-tRH The
OPA today turned down for the
second time request by whole
salers or commission men for es.
Enlistment of markup for direct
mill lumber shipments.
These dealers who normally
purchase from producing mills al
a discount land resell at mill
prices, had asked for a markup
for their service on the ground
that many producing mills no
longer are extending prewar dis
counts.
When OPA first denied their re-
quests, the WHOLESALERS asked for a
reconsideration.
In reaffirming its denial, OPA
said that many retailers, who
would be required to absorb such
a markup, have vigorously op-
posed" such a measure.
ITO permit retailers to increase
prices by the amount of such a
markup would increase construc-
ton costs further at a time when
sterilization of these costs is of
vital importance for the housing
program" OPA said.

Government Announces
Base Pricing For Eggs

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-(P)-
"A 29-cent-a-dozen base support
price for eggs during the flush
production season next spring was
announced formally by Secretary
OF Agriculture Anderson last night.
Producers will be assured of a
U. S. average farm price OF 20
cents dozen. In the Midwest,
where prices historically average
lower than on either the West or
East coast, the support level will
average q cents a dozen.
Anderson said his department
will support the egg market by
means of purchases of dried, froz-
en- and graded shell eggs. Such
eggs will be sold for export, sold
to other government agencies or
transferred to schools for use in
lunch programs. He said none will
be "dumped'' back on the market.
