USES OF PARAFFIN. ibw It Aids the Housekeeper I« tk« Practice of Economy. No product of petroleum baa a great er variety of household uses than re fined paraffin. This Is because It ex cels any other known product in the Ideal quality of its service and its econ omy of price. As housekeepers become acquainted with its virtues they find that nothing else is as clean or as pure or as taste less or as odorless. Moreover, it is not affected by air, acid or water. Prominent among the many uses to which it is now applied are for sealing cans in preserving fruits and jellies, in luundry by rubbing on irons and mix ing with hot starch, for coating wood en vessels, preserving eggs, flowers and autumn leaves, for polishing floors and making wax flowers. In sealing cans the paraffin wax should be melted and a layer about one-eighth of an inch thick poured over the top of the preserve, allowing it to stand until the paraffin becomes bard, when it will form a sealing absolutely airtight. No other covering is necessa ry. When the preserve is to be used, the paraffin should be loosened by run ning a knife around the edge, after which the wax can be easily removed. Jellies and fruits sealed in this manner retain their natural delicious flavors and are effectually protected against mold and insects. In seailing bottles the cork should be forced into the neck of the bottle in order to form a shallow cup on the top. Then fill this cup with melted paraffin, allowing it to harden. In the laundry about one-half a tea cup of paraffin shavings put into a boil er of hot water gives a dainty white ness to the linen and other wash fab rics. It will not injure the most deli cate fabrics, and by its use the family washing can be done in about one-half the usual time, and it saves the neces sity of hard rubbing and scrubbing. Irons can be kept smooth, bright and clean by rubbing them on a piece of paraffin covered with muslin, and a luster will be given to the linen by mixing a small piece of paraffin with the hot starch. Laundry tubs. Ice cream freezers—in fact, all wooden vessels when coated with paraffin—will last much longer than ordinarily.—House hold Gazette. How to Clothes. A saturated solution of borax and water rubbed on with a sponge, then followed by clear water, will remove a gliNte, the result of wear, from black goods. Borax is one of the best things for the removal of grease spots from wool en goods. A cleaning mixture of which it forms an important part is made by dissolving one ounce of powdered borax in one quart of boiling water and set ting it aside to cool. When quite cold, add one ounce of spirits of camphor, and it Is ready for use. For some cleaning purposes the ma terials are commonplace articles to be found In every household. A cut raw potato may be turned to good account when you get mud stains on your black dress. The mud should be left to dry before any attempt is made to remove it. Brush it off as thoroughly as you can after it has dried and then If any stains remain rub the cut surface of a raw potato over the spots. To remove grease spots from silk moisten the spots with chloroform and rub with a cloth till dry. How to 801 l Cblokta.

A SHIRT WAIST FIGURE. How to Successfully Put on the Pop nl»r Garment of (be Seaaton. The feminine mind now turns to the question of shirt waists, and fashion gives its opinion that this will be the greatest shirt waist season of all. What makes the shirt waist so popu lar? As simple looking as it is a shirt waist takes as much time to put on properly as an evening dress. For there are ways and ways of putting on a shirt waist. A woman never looks so trimly dressed, so altogether "chipper," as she does In a shirt waist that is well put on or so sloueliy as In one that is i badly put on. For the sake of those dear women who for lack of knowledge or Inspira tion have never learned to do the thing properly one of the shirt waist wearers gives a few rules which if followed to the letter will guarantee a "shirt waist figure" to those who have dreamed of one, but have heretofore had no person al acquaintance with It. First, then, take the corset you are wearing, a straight front, of course, for they can be bought now In the cheaper models as well as the most expensive, and Just at the end of the eyelets at the bottom of the corset sew a loop of Inch wide ribbon on either side. Now put on your shirt waist, fasten ing it with the tiny pearl buttons which are to be so fashionable this summer, and tie your stock, taking care to lap It neatly in the back. Then, with two small safety pins, pin the belt of your shirt waist at the back to the loops of ribbon as tight as you can stand it without being uncomforta ble or making yourself feel like a horse with too tight a checkreln. Now take your band mirror and turn around and look at your back. Did you ever get qnlte that flat effect before? Did your shirt waist ever fit so smooth ly between the shoulders? For my own waists I always have the belt sewed down Just to the side seams and then hanging free so that I may plait the front of the waist to suit myself. Smooth the waist down well then un der the arms and over the hips and pin It on each side. Then plait the fullness left Into side plaits and if you are thin enough to stand It blouse It a little in front. Now fasten the loose ends of your belt, and there you are, I warrant you, with a better shirt waist figure than you ever dreamed could be yours. Encouragement to Forest Planting. Many farmers throughout Indiana are unacquainted with the provisions of the forestry law passed by the last legislature, by which woodlands and tracts planted with forest trees are practically exempt from taxation. One hundred and seventy trees, large and smaH, are required upon each acre SQ exempted- Thickets and small growths are encouraged to perpetuate the for ests of the state. Timber has become so scarce In Indiana and many other states that It Is necessary for land owners to provide for a future supply, and the Indiana law encourages this effort of the farmers. Every farm has some portion which may be planted with quick growing trees, making a wood park, serving as a windbreak and in a few years pro ducing fenceposts, fuel, poles and tim ber for farm uses as %v< !1 as offering logs for lumber, cross tics for railways and poles for the many electric rail ways and telephones. The Indiana For estry association lias printed a number of booklets upon tills subject. The ca talpa Is recommended for planting in the middle states, being of remarkably rapid growth, extremely durable for posts and cross ties and making a val uable lumber for building purposes and furniture uses. The Queen's Legal Rights. Queen Alexandra has more independent legal rights than any other wife in Eng land. The Law Journal points out that thu queen consort's legal status differs from that of all other married women. She is regarded by law as a "feme sole." She may bring an action in the courts n» If she were unmarried. She has her separate court, her separate guards and her own servants, distiuet from those of the king. By an act dating from the sixteenth century she is empowered to write after her name the title, "Queen of England," and, although she is only a subject, an attempt to assassinate her is punishable as high treason.

In nine cases out of ten a beautiful nkln depends upon cleanliness, not lit% dabs of warm water once or twice a day, but vigorous cleansing with brush or coarse cloths and pure soap and plenty of water, warm and cold. Every morning for cleansing and re laxing the muscles of the face use warm water, quite warm, and a Turk ish toweling cloth. If the skin is oily, add a very little pure soap.

Follow the warm bath with a dash of cold water, and you need not fear go ing out In the air. Always cleanse the face before dressing for dinner or the evening. If fatigued, use hot water, pat dry and apply a good cream. Itub It In gently, always rubbing up. Leave it for ten minutes and then wipe off with a soft cloth and dust the face with a fine pure powder. This will give a soft pearly bloom and will also prevent the pores from becoming clogged with dust and impure matter. If the face is oily, bathe with hot wa ter at bedtime and apply alcohol with a little water. Blackheads are caused by dust lodging In enlarged pores. They can be prevented by careful bathing with hot water and a little olive oil and the application of alcohol to reduce the size of the pores. An occasional use of a cream will relieve any roughness which the frequent use of alcohol may cause. The principle of all this, says The New Idea Magazine, In which the Illus tration and advice are given. Is this: Keep the skin free from impurities, close the pores by the use of astrin gents, soften and feed with a cream and protect with a pure powder.

Let parents make it their chief care to build up for their children a sound body, a body capable alike of work and of enjoyment. As soon as a child is old enough to help building up his or her body let him or her take a hand in It. Teach the young that soundness of body and mind Is the main thing in life, that without this boon nothing really counts. Give the sound body plenty of exercise, but don't overwork it either In point of enjoyment or in point of business. If at one time or another you have overworked your body, don't worry about it, but guard against repetition. Repetition leads to bad habits. Be independent. Don't do things be cause you see other people do them. Admire courage and practice It. Ti midity Is hateful. Don't worry about the enemy from without—bacilli, changes In the weath er, etc.—but try to steel your body against their influence. They mustn't be allowed to get in or hurt it. Remember that it's your own faults that count most. Don't think that good health comes as a present to you or that you will re cover from illness owing to some oc cult influences. To have and to hold good health you must work for it, strive for it. If you want the physician to help you, you must help the physician. You must work hand in hand with him. Don't forget that it's yourself who decides upon soundness and ill health of your body. If you are unwilling to assist your physician, you rob him of the most Important factor in medicine. Don't become a slave to habit. Let your body and soul live in harmo ny together. Know thyself, criticise thyself, pun ish thyself, if necessary.

White gloves have been In regular fashionable standing for 12 years now, and by all signs and omens for reading the future they are good for another dozen years of modish patronage. Very heavy cream white dogskin gloves are the choicest dress for the hands In the morning.

Hill and Mr. Pettigrew are old friends, and this friendship Is cred ited with Ix-ing responsible for the lat ter's good luck. The story goes that Mr. Hill loaned his friend Pettigrew money with which to buy stocks and RICHARD P. PETTIGREW. also gave him the benefit of experience and inside knowledge. It turned out when Hill and Morgan began to hunt up Northern Pacific shares that Petti grew had 2,000 shares which he had purchased at par.

According to gossip straight from The Hague, the husband of yueen Wil helmlna has made himself unpopular by not driving out Instate the first time he appeared in The Hague after the honeymoon. The people felt he wasn't living up to royal traditions, and they didn't like It. It seems that when the royal couple settled In The Hague the duke went out to drive. But instead of using the state coach he appeared tooling an English drag, handling the ribbons ll in self. It was such a shock to the itolid Hollanders that they stood and itared tit the sight, and then they made jp their minds they didn't like It. It might be all right for him to do that in Germany, where he was only a duke, but a queen's husband ought to live up to Ills position. And, as the story Is told by a Dutch nobleman visiting In New York, not a Dutch head was bared as the duke drove by, nor have the peo ple yet recovered from their disapprov al. It will take many rides of penance In the state coach to make them do that. Yacht IlacliiK Aoraai the Ocean. According to advices received by a prominent New York yachtsman, the two English racing yachts Ailsa and Eelin, recently bought abroad for two American yachtsmen, are racing across the Atlantic. It was not generally un derstood that the yachts were to make a race of the trip to this side, as they did not leave their home ports within several days of each other. The Ailsa, which had left Southamp ton several days In advance of the Eelin, put Into the port of Penzance ostensibly to repair some of her head sails. Promptly on time the Eelin ap peared and put Into Falmouth, where she alleged she needed a slight refitting before proceeding on her way. The skippers of the two boats were seen frequently together before the yachts again sailed. According to the agreement, both yachts put out late in April and when last seen had caught up with each other and were having it hot and heavy, with the Ailsa slightly In the lead. lion- to Whiten Piano Keya.

A very singular state of things now exists in the town of Bristol Tenn., by reason of an act passed at the last session of congress fixing the boundary line between Tennessee and Virginia. The line runs along the middle of the main street of Bristol, and as there is • railway in the street the passengers on the south side of the ear are riding In Tennessee and those on the north side in Virginia. If an offender against the laws of Virginia be sitting on the south side of a ear, an officer from Virginia may sit opposite to him, within arm's reach, and yet dare not touch him unless he has duly Issued requisition papers. But there Is a more serious phase of the matter than that. If a headstrong youth and an equally headstrong maid en, both under the legal age and living in Virginia, take a notion to be mar ried, they can have the ceremony per formed on the south side of a car, while 011 the north side there is a law prohibiting it. So they have only to move from one side of a car to the other. Tennessee permits the marriage of minors, but Virginia does not. However, the same state of things would exist if the boundary line ran outside the town limits in a field, for Virginia law would rule on one side of the line and Tennessee law on the other. The oddity about the present arrangement is that the line runs along the middle of a street on which there is a railway. James A. Hamilton of Chambers burg, Pa., told this story at a recent meeting in Philadelphia of the officials of 65 Pennsylvania towns to discuss the tramp question: "Three years ago we thought we had the tramp question in Franklin county settled for all time. We started out to make them work. We bought sev eral hundred carloads of stone and had it hauled to the yard of the coun ty jail. We invested in a good many suits of blue jeans and laid in a stock of hammers and ran up quite a bill for provisions. Then we sent out after the tramps. We didn't have to send far. The woods were full of 'em, sent down, 1 suppose, from Scranton and Allentown. "The whole country was interested in the project, and the tirst day of the ex periment we had 000 to 800 people turn out to see the tramps work. We had a band of music, too, and altogether it was a great day. We had corralled 30 or 40 tramps, and in the forenoon they worked tirst "rate, but after tin midday meal they complained of the food. In the afternoon they gathered in little groups of three and four and did a good deal of talking. Next morning after breakfast there was a strike. They wouldn't work, and wWve never been able to make them work since." Hon- to Make Rhuhnrb Pie. Skin and chop two cups of rhubarb before measuring. Mix IV4 cups of sugar and two tablespoonfuls of flour together and add to the rhubarb; then add the yolks of two eggs slightly beat en and one tablespoonful of butter. Line a pie plate with plain paste. Fill with the mixture and bake in a mod erate oven until the rhubarb is soft. Cover with a meringue made of the whites beaten stiff, add two tablespoon fuls of powdered sugar and continue beating. Pile lightly on the pie and bake in a slow oven about 15 minutes. If the rhubarb Is scalded before using, some of its acidity is lost, so less sugar is required. How to Make Corned Ileef Hash.
