Iron silk on the wrong side the iron will make the right side shiny. Oil stains may be removed from laundry pieces with turpentine before washing. Whites of raw eggs make an ideal paste to use over the surface and around the edges of the papers that cover jam. The paste is air tight and imperceptible when dry. Ink stains on silver or plated articles may be removed with a paste of chloride of lime and water; apply it, let it remain a few minutes and then wash It off with warm water. During preserving season save all I the preserve skimmings and turn them I into the vinegar barrel, as they clear I the vinegar and strengthen the "mother" that keeps it fresh and sharp. When cane seats are relaxed turn the chair upside down, pour boiling wat er over It, scour In hot soapsuds and rinse again In boiling water, when the cane should be found to have contracted. After washing lace curtains lay a blanket on the floor of an empty room, spread the curtains in the blanket. stretching them carefully, and they will keep in place without fastening until dry. A piece of bed ticking about a yard square, preferably old, will save your kitchen towels and many a burnt hand. This square should be hemmed and a fastened at one end. It is the best kind of a holder for handling hot utensils or taking pies and cakes from the oven. Called to Hamilton, O. Manager II. C. Green of the Ham mond. Whiting & East Chicago Rail way Co. left last night for Hamilton, O., where his aged father is dying.

CAMP SUGGESTIONS. A suggestion for a camp refrigerator Is to have a barrel sunk Into the ground a eon- 4h venfent distance from the enmp. fc In this tbe supplies for tbe chafInsr dish should be kept the 4b canned things that have been q opened and tho evaporated milk, j b Picnic hampers for camptne are really a great convenience, though the space Is so fully taken up by the utensils that the provender usually ha to be carried separately. These bampera are to be had In all sizes. Inotead of taking p china plates to tbe camp, which are always cumbersome, those of good fiber, which are sold In the stores for 5 cents a dosen, make a satisfactory aubstltnte, claims an exchange. Of the same class are heavy paper platen made In a half dozen layers each, these being removed by simply pulling them off. Both the wooden and paper platen are very light In weight and are 4 thrown away after being used.

"The best skin specialists told me that nothing would remove my freckles and that I would carry them to my grave," said a well-known society women, ."but I fooled them all with a new drug, othlne double strength, that I bought at Summers' pharmacy, which cleared my skin and gave me a fine complexion." The action of othlne Is really remarkable, for when applied at night, many of the freckles disappear entirely by morning, and the rent have begun to fade. An once Is usually all that is needed, even for the worst case. Be sure to ask Summers' pharmacy for the double strength othlne, as this is sold under a guarantee of moriey back if it fails to remove the freektes.
