When Washing Prints. llcforo a new print gets its llrst tubbing set the colors. The way of doing this do ponds upon tho color. Ulues and greens aro strengthened by vinegar in the rinsing of bluing water, allowing a tablespoonful of vinegar to every quart of water. Alum water is also efficacious, allowing four ounces alum to a tub of water. For blnck, black and while, deep purples or grays, salt is best. Dissolve a pint of salt In .two quarts of boiling water, put tho gar ment in while hot and let It He several hours. Then wring dry and proceed as usual. For madder tints, sonk In a sugar of load solution tm ounce to a gallon of water. Strong black peppor tea put in the first suds is best for setting some blacks. Where there Is any doubt as to tho fastness of a color or what will best set it, it is a good plan to wot small pieces with the vari ous solutldns and see which proves best adapted to that particular color. When ready to wash tho calicoes use clean warm, not hot, suds, rinse thor oughly In two clear waters, wring dry, starch and hang In tho shade, but so arrange that they will dry quickly.

Laundry Lessons. At the schools where fine laundry work Is taught there Is no hit-or-mlss method in mak ing starch and applylng.lt to a gar ment. There is an accurate, scientific rule for every step. In starching shirts, for instance, mix three table spoonfuls of dry starch smooth in cold water, then stir fast into one quart of boiling water. Boll for ten minutes, vlth constant stirring. While cooking stir also with a sperm candlo kept for that purpose. When this Is not avail able a little lard, butter, kerosene or white wax will do. When the starch ,1s cooled down so that tho hand can be borne in it dip collars, cuffs and shirt fronts into it, rubbing the starch thoroughly In, clapping It between the hands so that it may be evenly dis tributed through all the threads. Fold collars and cuffs in a clean towel, spreading out fit. Fold the shirt lengthwise, bring the two sfdes of tho bosom together, with the wristbands put between. This keeps the starch from the rest of tho shirt. Then roll very tight, springllng a little water on the Haps. To Stiffen Organdies. These re quire a different treatment. The best starch for them is clear, thick gum water. Dip them in wrong side out, rub the gum thoroughly through and squeeze dry, but do not wring. Spread out as much as possible in the hang ing, and leave until the surface of the garments feels limply moist. Take down, roll tightly and cover with a clean cloth. Now undo a little at a time and pat and clap between the hands until dry. How to Clean Swansdown. First make a warm lather of soap, then gently squeeze tho down in this until It is quite clean.

If that part of the human body is in per fect working order, there can be no dyspepsln, for nervous energy repre sents the steam that drives tho en gine. When tho nervous system Is run down, tho machinery of the body works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be used by small children as well as adults. It is perfectly cooked and ready for instant use.
