Laundry Work and Spot Removing
BY I ADI A LE BARON WALKER.
The simple matter of temperature
plays a more important part in Rood
laundry work than would at first ap
pear. The usual warm water for the
soaking and washing, and scalding wa
ter for rinsing, do very well for regula
tion laundry work, hut there are
special pieces that, owing to thetr sub

It has been found that soiled clothes
are easier to get clean when they are

—Old Mother Nature.
It was a few days after Billy Mi-nk
had successfully tried to get a King
fisher dinner that the Smiling Pool
saw one of the funniest fishing par
ties it had seen for a long time. Peter
Babbit happened to be over there at
the time. Peter was sitting on the

opposite bank. On the big rock in
the middle of the Smiling Pool sat
•lerrv Muskrat. Grandfather Frog
was sitting on his favorite big green
lily-pad. Spotty the Turtle was sun
ning himself on the end of an old log
in the water. Side by side in a row
on a dead limb that hung out over the
water sat six young Kingfishers. The
feathers on the tops of their heads all
stood up like the hair of a boy just
getting up in the morning.
Rattles the Kingfisher and Mrs. Rat
tles were fussing about as only a cou
ple of fond parents can. Suddenly
Mrs. Rattles gave a sharp warning.
"Look down there in the water!;’ she
cried. “See those little fish!”
All the young Kingfishers bent their
heads and looked down into the wa
le*. All of them saw the little fish.
Ml of them suddenly became very
hungry. But they didn’t know what
to do about it. It was the first time
they had ever seen fish moving. They
looked st the ftsh. and they looked at
each other. Then they looked at their
mother. Mrs. Rattles the Kingfisher.
At that very instant Mrs. Rattles
suddenly closed her wings and shot
straight down head first into the wa
ter with a little tinkling splash.
"Oil!" cried the six little Kingfishers
together.
And just aft they cried “Oh!" up
came Mrs. Rattles Lite Kingfisher, and
in her bill was a little ftsh. “Oh!”
cried the six little Kingfishers to
gether again, and then all fixed their
eager eyes on their mother and that
little fish. Each hoped that that little

Extra Handkerchief.
One mother says:
I have found it an excellent plan
to supply my small daughter with an
extra handkerchief, to supplement the
pretty one she carries, or lias pinned
to her sash. She had so often com
plained that site dTd dislike to get her
dress up “hanky” all crumpled and
mussed, so I inserted hidden pockets
in all her frocks to hold the handker
chief meant for use. In case of loss,
t 00, it is always such a comfort to
bars an extra handkerchief lo fall
back upon.

! which to soak her clothes considered
I herself very unfortunate, not that she
- used it at the boiling point, but that
! she wished the water to be as hot as
• her hands could stand when she put
the clothes in it. But study and re
i search in laundry work have proven
that immersing In boiling water does
not loosen dirt so well as soaking In
water of a lower temperature.
Boiling Water.
Bolling water is best for removing
grease. If there are any such spots,
therefore on garments or pour
boiling water on them and rub lightly
with soap. Then wash the places be
fore putting the pieces to soak. Most
fresh fruit stains will yield to boiling
water treatment, if the water is
poured through them Immediately
after the spot is made. Candle grease
i should be taken off, as much as pos-
I slble, before processing in the hot
I water. If the cloth Is slightly warmed
| the wax can be peeled off. except that
I which has become ingrained in the
I weave. Do not try to pull cold wax
off. It may tear the cloth If It is fine,
or pull and break stitches of embroid
ery or threads in hemstitching. After
warming the fabric and peeling the
superfluous wax off, immerse in boil
ing water until the wax is soft, then
rub and wash with soap and water.
Cold Water.
Cold water Is best for removing
i blood stains. Handkerchiefs should
j he soaked in cold water and then
! washed in cold water before putting in
; with the regular laundry water. Egg
! stains will come out best in cold water.
1 Hot water stiffens and thickens the
j albumen.
Woolens.
There is nothing that responds so
to temperature as does wool. If the
water is too hot it shrings the mater
ial. Also if there is a decided change
in temperature between wash and
rinse water the fabric shrinks. When
wool shrinks it also thickens and
seems to acquire a hardness of texture
that can never be eliminated. It is ab
solutely essential, therefore, to see
that the temperature is right when
! laundering woolen articles or those
! that are part woolen. Blankets that
| are all wool require very careful wash
| ing. No blankets are Ironed, of course.
| They will'become fluffy and beautiful,
almost like new, if well laundered.
, They must be expected to acquire a
deep cream color after a while. This
I change of tone Is not the disadvantage
! some seem to consider it. It distin
! guishes all wool from cotton and wool.
Some housewives choose to have blan
kets that are part cotton because they
do not turn so quickly. Just in pro
portion to the amount of wool hi the
weave does the blanket deepen its hue
with time and with washin"
fish was for him. You should have
seen them all stretch their necks to
ward Mrs. Rattles as she flew over
and alighted near them. But she
didn't give them the fish. She pound
ed it on the branch at her feet for a
moment, and then —well, what do you
think she did" She swallowed that
little fish herself. Yes. sir, she did so.
Such a look of disappointment as
swept over the faces of those little
Kingfishers! Even Peter Rabbit could
see It from where he sat. He laughed
right out. So did Jerry Muskrat. So
did Grandfather Frog. So did Spotty
the Turtle. It really was funny. Just
then up came Rattles the Kingfisher,
and the same thing happened all over
again, only this time it was Rattles
who caught the fish and ate it.
Several times Rattles and Mrs.
Kingfisher caught fish and ate them.
Then the boldest and the smartest of
the six little Kingfishers, or perhaps
it was the hungriest one, saw a little
fish swimming close to the surface
just below him. In his hurry he
seemed to actually tumble off that
branch. Down, he went, and he was
so awkward about it that he made
a great splash when he hit the water,
and when he came up he had no fish.
But if he had no fish, he had made
his first plunge. Not two minutes
later he had another chance, and this
time he caught the little fish. Never
was there a prouder young Kingfisher
in all the Great World. He hammered
it against the branch as he had seen
his father and mother do, and then he
turned it around and swallowed it
head first. He paid no attention to
his brothers and sisters, who were
begging him to give it to them.
“Catch your own fish.” said he. and
flew over to another tree, where he
could be by himself with a better
chance of catching fish.

HOME NOTES
BY JENNY WREN.
Good reproductions of the ladder
back chair of Colonial times are quite
comiiton in the shops today. They
are both sturdy and comfortable and
add a quaint touch of interest to the
room furnished with other pieces of
the same period.
This type of chair, sometimes
known also as the slatback. was
adapted by Colonial cabinetmakers
from an immensely strong and heavy
farmhouse chair made in Yorkshire
during the Georgian period. This
was made both with and without arms
and the -number of slats varied from
two to four. The seats were almost
always of plaited rushes.
The ladder-back was extremely
popular in America all during the
eighteenth century for use in the big,
cheerful living-room-kitchen that was
the heart of home life in those days.

Our Children —By Angelo Patri
Where Does He Get It ?
W hen a child exhibits some annoy
ing trait and you feel your it;wtienee
slipping, your forbearance growing
thin, hold on just long enough to ask.
“Where does he get it?"
Suppose your 13-year-old suddenly
begins answering you impudently,
with a disrespect that is startling.
Your first impulse is to slap him or
send him to bed or devour him with
your wrath. Better wait for
thought. Tell him to sit /lovrn over
there until you have time to attend
to him. Then think back and try to
find the person and the circumstances
that 'set the stage for his exhibition.
You will generally find him close at
home.
This is but saying the saire old
thing in another way. The child is
monkey-like in his imitation of what
goes on about him. If he hears and
sees crudities of speech and manner
he will exhibit them about the be
ginning of adolescence if not l>efore.
Ts you would avoid them keep such
influences out of your home.
The home influences are the
stronger. We speak a great deal
about the street influences. Tlwey are
very strong. But if the home is
steadily set toward the proper stand
ard. whatever you conceive that to be.
the home spirit will in the erid pre
dominate. So when the child gets
out of bounds, search the home for
the cause first. Then go to the. street,
then the school.
If the child comes home with an
entirely new manner of carritige and
speech, something that is startlingly
new to the family tradition, look to
the churn. Chums are very Influen
tial. Therefore they are important
and to be considered. They should he
made welcome to the house as an
ally. They will Ire needed before the
storm of adolescence subsides.! W is
dom bids us cultivate the chums.
Then there is school. Tho teacher
is a great source of inspiration to
childhood. You do not realise the
enormous influence the teacher has
because it is usually for good and one
does not notice the righteousness of
children as they notice their unright
eousness. Because the teacher Ps gen
erally a pillar in the temple she is
overlooked.
Sometimes, however, the teacher
has a mannerism, a trend of mind, a
temperament that brings out. some
thing unpleasant in some particular
child. If that happens it is best to
take the child out of that claims and
put him in the room of some other
teacher whose temperament and gifts
are better fitted to the child's.
Once I knew a teacher tv ho had a
lisp. She said “1” for "r." It made
no difference to the children but in
one instance. Joey ' heard that “1”
and for some reason adopted it. His
startled parents took him to the
speech specialist and it was six
months before, they discovered the
source of Joey’s difficulty. It vas no
difficulty: just an Imitation ofi some-

HOW IT STARTED |
BY JEAN NEWTON.
“Kicking the Bucket.”
Not everybody who Is dead has
kicked the bucket; not everybody who
has died by his own hand has kicked
the bucket, though In the process
some of them have kicked over other
things. This is no attempt to prosely
tize —it is not a revelation of the
after-life. It is simply an explana
tion of how it started.
The term has come down to us for
every method of leaving this world
for the next. The particular means
which popularized it, however, was
introduced hundreds of years ago by
one, who, having lost his reasoning,
decided to commit suicide by hanging
himself. In looking around for a sup
port over which to throw his rope
he found a beam so high over his
head that it was necessary to stand
on something in order to reach it.
The nearest thing happened to be a
bucket, which served the purpose
very well. After completing the
necessary operations the poor man
actually and verily kicked the bucket.
Chicken En Casserole.
Singe and draw one good sized
chicken, then truss it as for boiling.
Have ready a casserole large enough
to hold the bird whole, line it with
one pound of sliced bacon, put in the
chicken and sprinkle in some salt,
pepper and one onion chopped fine.
Then arrange around the chicken
three skinned tomatoes, three sticks
of celery, five mushrooms and two
chopped pickled walnuts and one bay
leaf. Add two cupfuls of stock, place
the casserole in the oven and let cook
gently for one and one-half hours,
basting the chicken frequently. When
done remove the bay leaf, brown and
thicken the gravy with one tablespoon
ful of arrowroot, leave all the vege
tables in the gravy with the chicken
and serve hot in the casserole.
- •
Peach Snow.
Rub through a sieve enough ripe,
skinned peaches to make a cupful.
Add half a package of gelatin which
has been soaked and dissolved, the
juice and grated rind of a lemon, a
pinch of salt and a few drops of
vanilla. 'When cool, but not set. fold
in the stiffly beaten whites of three
eggs. Mold, chill and serve with
whipped cream or custard.

IN THE GARDEN WITH BURBANK
As Reported by Elizabeth Lrquhart and Edited by Luthur Burbank.
Working Directions.
"What are the first requisites and
essentials in this experimental work,
Mr. Burbank?” I asked.
"Infinite patience, an open mind and
common sense; to these may be added
a jeweler's eyeglass and pair, of pin
cers, a small, powerful microscope, a
sharp knife, a w r atch crystal for hold
ing pollen and a soft brush for dusting
the pollen from one plant to the other.
"This w'ork is just what the bee
does so swiftly, so easily, and un
consciously in its search for honey,
and we begin to understand why the
flow'ers don their gay colors and pre
pare their nectar to attract them.
The bees' methods mav be watched
with advantage and when they be
gin their day’s work the experimenter
may know that the flowers are ready
to be pollenlzed.
"Only by crossing can the different
species and varitles of plants be im
proved, and nature has contrived many
devices to prevent self-fertilization in
flowers, such as arranging for the
stamens and pistils to mature at dif
ferent times, or by making little traps
to hold captive certain insects needed
to deposit the pollen from other
flowers.
"Or, again, by having the stamens
and pistils on different parts of plants,
like corn, and even on different plants,
as in the case of hemp and others.
"And all this ingenuity for one pur
pose of combining two lines of hered
ity. so that the next generation may be
better equipped for adapting itself to
new surroundings!
"In the case of water plants the
pollen reaches the pistil by the move
ment of the w'ater; in that of the pines
and nearly all other forest trees, the 1
pollen is carried by the winds; but
wdth more highly developed plants the
pollen, with few exceptions, is carried
by bees and other Insects, or in some
cases by birds.
"We might> digress here a moment,
to recall the fact that many plants or
trees brought from other countries fail
to produce seed, unless the native in
sect which pollenizes the flower hap
pens to be brought with it.
"This has been the case with the
common fig. which did not ripen satis
factory fruit until its own Italian
wasp was imported.
"To continue with our lesson in
methods: When a certain flower has
been decided on, the pollen from one
of two flowers is carefully gathered
with a soft camel’s hair brush and
placed on a watch crystal and taken
to the flower to be pollenlzed. The
pollen is carefully dusted on the pis
til of the other flower which is ready
to receive it. The little grains of poi
len find their way down the tube of
the pistil into the ovary below, where
the tiny seeds are waiting for it to
start them into life.
"This pollenated flower should he
marked w-ith a tag and careful)-
guarded. The seeds when ripe are to
be gathered and saved and are better
kept in an air-tight glass jar or «
paper sack until time to plant them
As we already have had detailed direr
tlons on seed planting and raising, w**
need not repeat that part of the work
"When the little seedlings appear
the very important work of selecting
begins. The young plants should hr
studied and compared, and only the
very best, the hardiest, earliest to ms
ture and nearest to the ideal should
be chosen, the rest being destroyed
if further improvement is the object
in view.”
