' Not Infrequently a young woman finds It necessary to launder a shirt waist at home for some emergency when the laundryman or the home ser vant cannot do it. Hence these direc tions for ironing the waist: To iron summer shirt waists so that they will look like new It Is needful to have them starched evenly with Defiance tarch, then made perfectly smooth and rolled tight In a damp cloth, to be laid away two or three hours. When Ironing have a bowl of water and a clean piece of muslin beside the iron ing board. Have your Iron hot, but not sufficiently so to scorch, and abso lutely clean. Begin by Ironing the back, then the front, sides and tbe sleeves, followed by the neckband and the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap ply the damp cloth and remove them. Always iron from the top of the waist to the bottom. If there are plaits In the front lroa them downward, after first raising each ono with a blunt knife, and with the edge of the Iron follow every line of stitching to give it distinctness. After the shirt waist Is ironed It should be well aired by the fire or In the sun before It Is folded and put away, rays the Philadelphia Inquirer. Same Old Voice. "No man can dlsgulRe his voice In talking through a telephone," said an exchange operator to an interviewer recently. "Every person has some lit tle peculiarity of speech that, no mat ter how infinitesimal it may be, is sure to uc uctuattui auu 2nSi6 H1CC recognizable over the wire. The man who has a Bbarp ring in his voice will seem to speak more sharply; a gruff voice will be made more gruff and by the same rule an Insincere voice is given a greater tone of insin cerity. Tbe speaker who chews his words has no chance at all with a good, lively 'phone. He may only con tort his speech very slightly, but the .'phone w!IJ do the rest, and at the other end of the wire his remarks will be about as intelligible as pied type." I OISON IN SILK STOCKINGS. lares and Tragedy. , In the course of his address to the students at the opening exercises of the Baltimore Woman's college last week, President Gnucber said: "A womanish man Is a farce; a mannish woman is a tragedy. The enlargement of opportunity obtained through edu cation secured in such institutions as this la attended by enlargement of re sponsibility from which you cannot escape. Your highest Ideal should be a womanly woman." Oxygen In Commerce.

Among the various forms of metallic poisoning to which man Is liable we we must not forget that innocent as tin may be as a lining to "tin" vessels, some of its saHs are by no means free from poisonous qualities, and when absorbed act seriously upon the nervous system. These salts are often employed in dyeing. Properly used they act as a mordant, but it is whis pered that the manufacturer is not always sorry to find that the excess of the salt is not removed, for when left It adds weight to the silk and silk Is valuable hence many troubles. Colored stockings often have been ac cused of causing poisoning. Not only does the pattern on the stockings sometimfs cause eruptions on the legs, but in some cafea poisonous ma terials have been absorbed into sys tem. Arsenic, which in the early days of aniline dyes was often present, used to be the incriminated metal. This, however, is a mode of arsenical poison ing of which very little has been heard for many years. Now it is tin which is arraigned. A case is reported from Vienna of a woman who suffered from attacks of partial paralysis In the low er cxtremeties, with anaesthesia, a sense of coldness and ataxic gait. She had noticed that whenever tbefce symp toms were most pronounced her feet were colured yellow, and It was found that this staining was derived from the light yellow silk stockings which she wore. On analyzing these they were found to contain quantities of tin. Careful chemical examination of the excreta showed that they also con tained tin, so that whatever may have been the cause of the symptoms there could be no doubt that tho patient had tin in her system. The moral seems to be that pers-ms who perspire should not wear pietty silks next to their skin unless they can be sure that they are not dyrd with colors mordanted with tin. Posnb'y there may be in this case have been some carelessness, and It may not have ben the metal combined with the co:or, but rather the excess, which had not been prop erly removed, that did the mischief. This, however, will not affurd much comfort to the lalles who buy silk stockings, for how are they to tell whether any particular color Is safe or not? It Is unfortunate, but It seems to be the fact that In many instances col ors which are ' fast" enough In relation to ordinary washing are by no means incapable of solution in perspiration. especially when this natural secretion has been modified by the various fer- rnentive changes which It Is apt to un dergo.

How the Paving- Value of Aaphalt W Brought to Notice, All forms of bituminous pavements. whether manufactured from natural or artificial asphalt, are in fact artificial stone pavements. The industry started with the use of the natural rock as phalt from the mines in the Val de Travers, Canton Neufchatel, Switzer land. The mines were discovered in 1721, but It was In 1849 that its utility as a road covering was first noticed. The rook was then being mined for the purpose of extracting the bitumen con tained In it for Its use in medicine and the arts. It Is a limestone found im pregnated with bitumen, of which it yields, on analysis, from 8 to 14 per cent. It was observed that pieces of rock which fell from a wagon were crushed by the wheels, sad under the combined influence of the traffic and heat of the sun a good road surface was produced. A macadam road of asphalt rock was then made, which gave very good results, and finally, in 1854, a portion of the Rue Bergere was laid In Paris of compressed asphalt on a concrete foundation. In 1858 a still larger sample was laid, and from that time it has been laid year by year In Paris. Krom Paris It extended to Lon don, being lalu on Threadneedle street In 1869 and Chcapslde in 1870, and in successive years on other streets. Unimaginative. The impression his been general that the Latin races are peculiarly Im aginative. Mr. Marlon Crawford holds an opposite view. According to his experience, people of very temperate climates are the reverse of imagina tive. It Is only In the extreme north and In the south that this quality of the mind is highly developed. Crawford asserts that the Italian people have lit tle Imagination, and cits as proof of this the Italian custom of presenting the story of Bethlehem on Christmas dav with fleurts of various slz?s. He thinks the use of these figures to sld th Imaginative proves the Imagina tion defective, Fairy atorles and ghost stores are practlca'ly unknown among the Italians, who are Incapable of de veloping for themselves any mental picture, and depend upon story-tellers tn draw these pictures for them. To this day it is a common sight, capeel ally in Palermo and throughout Sicily, to see tbe Itinerant story-teller with hla back to the wall, surrounded by a great crowd of Interested auditors fr-r whose benefit be recites thrilling tales by the hour. , It seems then, that In the matter of Imagination tbe modern Italian la like the Roman, who had many fine qualities, but was deficient In originality. The best that he had was borrowed from the Greeks. Youth's Companion. THOME WHO II AVE TRIED IT will uwf no other.
