The Ingenuity of inventors and manufacturers is ever at work In the endeavor to reduce the expense of production, and at the same time to Improve the quality of articles having a large sale. Ttls Is not only benefi cial to the purchasing public, but It Inures to the benefit of the producer In increasing sales and preventing competition. This has been so lh the case of farm machinery, clothing, shoes, bicycles, etc., and now It Is ap parent la the safety razor field. Thou sands of this style of razor have been old at from 1.C0 to i eaeh and giv en satisfaction. Recently mannfac turers hare applied more scientific principles and Improved methods In their manufacture, and the result Is rfeen In the "Stirs Shavr" razor, which Is Bent postpaid for twenty-five cents in Btampn by the Boo Publishing JTouse, 134 Leonard street, New YBrk. It Is superior to any razor Sold, being bonght largely by those already owning the highest priced razors. Not every one knows that the best results are obtained by hav ing two or three razors and alternat ing them In use. This practice of al ternating possibly aceonnts for the very large sale of this low prleed Im plement. Posed as Anti-Fat Model.

Americans do not half'appreciate the possibilities of . macaroni When Italians of comfortable means and good family can make some form of macaroni their standard dinner dish every day and thrive on It, its food pos sibilities would seem to bear Investi gation and adoption. The true maca roni wheat is not yet grown in Amer ica to any great extent. What is needed for this purpose is a good hard wheat rich in gloten. Color dcss.not matter; in fact, a grayish white flour contains the largest per cent, of gluten. If It is pure white that means too much starch, and the housewlfa In buying should bear that point In mind and look for a creamy macaroni. It it is pure white it becomes pasty and mucilaginous in cooking and burns readily. The taste for macaroni grows by what It feeds on. The butter, cheese or Oil with which It is served supplies the lacking fats and oils. The Ital ians In cooking macaroni never break it up. To cook It plain, plunge in a generous kettle of belling water lightly salted and boil rapidly for fifteen or twenty minutes until ten der. Serve hot with a bowl of grated cheese. A pound of macaroni fur nishes a good plateful apiece for four persons. Cold rather than hot fish, boned, shredded and served in apple Jelly. Use a pointed brush to clean tufted furniture. It will keep out the moths. Novelties in fruit salad, such as ripe gages stoned and stuffed with cream cheese and covered with may onnaise, Pats of butter freshly made for a meal In tiny glass churns, molded and served on a lettuce heart to look in viting. To remove tea and coffee stains, wet spot with cold water, cover with gylcerlne, and let stand two or three hours, .then wash with cold water and hard soap. Repeat if necessary. Vaseline prevents blisters. A little vaseline applied to the skin before putting on a mustard plaster will pre vent blistering. The same holds good if iodine is used instead of mustard. As a matter of fact, the coffee that Is least injurious is made by allowing a tablespoonful (heaping)' to a cup of cold water, and letting it just boll up well no more. The coffee may be mixed with an egg before it is put in, and Is even more palatable. ' If cans of fruit are wrapped after they have cooled from the canning process In old newspapers and placed in a cool, dry spot the asw printer's Ink and paper will prevent their molding, for canned fruit only too often does this. - Hot corn meal is said to be effective in dealing window Shades that are maraly Stmt sotted. Place shades on a flat surface, aad rub in meal with clrtnlar motion of the palm. Then rub gently with a soft dry cloth, and both meal and dust will be removed.

Banana skins are excellent. Rub .the inside on the leather; let it dry, then polish it with a piece of chamois or cheese cloth. ROOSEVELT'S TABLE TALK. Its Indiscretion "Makes One's Head Swim With Astonishment." . "One can imagine a book which would be well worth half a million dollars to any publisher who could get hold of the necessary material for it," writes Harry Thurston Peck In the Forum. "This would be a volume containing Mr. Roosevelt's table talk or some of it since he first came to the Presidency. "For frank indiscretion, absolute bluntness and the most Irreverent pungency of phrasing, this table talk of Mr. Roosevelt's 'is extraordinarily interesting. No matter who happens to be his -guest, tho President always speaks without the slightest reserve, giving his actual opinions of Sena tors, Representatives, public men in general, Ambassadors and even for eign potentates, in a way that makes one's head swim with astonishment. "One might name at least half a dozen persons who are by no means the especial intimates of the Presi dent, but to whom, nevertheless, be has blurted out enough of this ex tremely piquant talk to fill a volume. The extraordinary part of it all is that very few indeed of those to who ho talks have yet betrayed his confi dence. Of course they tell oilier peo ple; but only those, who like them selves, can keep these blazing indis cretions from getting into the pages of the newspapers. "In a few instances, to bo sure, table gueBts of President Roosevelt have In perfect Innocence revealed some of his careless words; but then he has promptly, enrolled tfiem in tho Ananias Cltih, and everything has gone on as though nothing at all had happened. Where in Europe theTe would be Issued in some gnzette an official dementi our President gives out a statement to the press that the story-teller has uttered what he knew to be 'outrageously and absolutely false.' "It Is odd that none of the White House servants have carried their master's interesting mots to the newspapers; for the President often talks quite as freely in their pres ence as when he, is alone with his in vited guests. Some day or other in tho distant future many of these in teresting and very pungent bits of phrase and characterization will be carefully collected and published; but probably not until many man now living shall have died." Yankee Snmonns. Captain C. V. T. Moore, IT. S. N., retired, of Tutuila, Samoan Islands, recently retired as Governor of the American part of the islands, says: "We get along finely together, the Germans and the Americans. There is a stretch of water thirty miles wide between us, serving as the boundary line between the American and the German islands. The natives of both the German and American possessions realize that the supreme powers of their respective Island homes are in Washington and Berlin. Alttfonga their history and customs and kingly traditions are still kept up, they know that Kaiser Wilhelm and the Presi dent of the United States are the real powers; "The natives of the American group call themselves Yankees and are proud to be Americans. They sing 'The Star-Spangled Banner' and other patriotic songs. The natives of the German islands are proud of be ing subjects of the German Kaiser, and they give vent to their patriotism by singing 'Die Wacht am Rhetn.'

"When my little girl was six months old I noticed small red spots on her right cheek. They grew so large that I sent for the doetor but, instead of helping the erup tion, his ointment seemed to make it worse. Then I went to a second doctor who said it was eczema. He also gave me an oint ment which did not help either. The dis ease spread all over the face and the eyes began to swell. The itching grew intoler able and it was a terrible sight to see. I consulted doctors for months, but they were unable to cure the baby. I paid out from $20 to $30 without relief. One evening I began to use the Cuticura Remedies. The next morning the baby's face was all white instead of red. I continued until the eczema entirely disappeared. Mrs. P. E. Gumbin, Sheldon, la., July 13, 1908." Potter Drug & Chem.

Now that President Taylor of Vas sar has kicked over the traces his ex ample ought to be followed by fellow educators. Dr. Taylor says he haa got through with begging money for his institution, "the most disagreeable job" In the business, and suggests that other college presidents say to their trustees: "I am through; I will do no more of that. If I can see an oppor tunity of asking a man to contribute) $100,000, I will do it, but I will not beg for $15 and $20 and $50." In Dr. Taylor's opinion, the raising of funds for colleges is rf" . .ter for buslnes men and not teachers. The head of a great' , . ucational Institution la supposed to be a scholar, and more than that, to be skilled In imparting his knowledge to others. He Is ex pected to surpervise the duties of hi professors, to enforce the college dis cipline, and by his personal example to be an Inspiration to the student.
