Infrequently a young womaa ds it necessary to launder a shirt waist at home for some emergency •when the laundry man or the home ser­ vant cannot , do it. Hence these direc­ tions for ironing the waist: To iron rammer shirt waists so that they will look like new it is needful to have them starched evenly with Defiance •tapch, then made perfectly smooth and roiled 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 the 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 iron them downward, after first raising each one 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, says the Philadelphia Inquirer.

UL *999999999999:9999999999991 The floor was littered with manu­ script, as is usual in a ^wspaper of­ fice. The dark pigeon-holes were filled with selections put away with a pur­ pose, but as soon forgotten. Other selections had been added, until it would have defied the search of the most Ingenious, and yet at times the editor might take out one at random, to find himself musing with the memo­ ries of years. Thus I carelessly reached for a stiff and moldy clipping which had been disturbed by a violent search for something placed there. Catching a word or two from the mutilated end I pulled it forth anu found myself reading the death notice of an old and valued friend--Captain Randall Fon­ da, who had won his title in the Brit­ ish service, and whose stories of cam­ paigns in India had whiled away many a weary hour. The captain .Had fallen heir to a small fortune left by an aunt in the town in which I lived, which decided him to settle there, and for the purpose of keeping up his in­ terest in public affairs he became a frequent contributor to the pages of the Auraria Gazette. Coming in one night rather late, jomewhat more serious than usual. Captain Fonda pulled up a chair and whispered: "I am going to get married!" "Congratulations!" "Yes, to a daughter of one of the oldest families hereabout. Her mother wants the engagement an­ nounced, and she has written It out In this form." Here he took from his vest pocket a memorandum book, from between the leaves of which he drew a sheet of note paper, upon which was writ­ ten: "Mrs. Luclnda MacOwen announces the betrothal of her daughter, Miss Hortense Marie MacOwen, to Captain Randall Fonda, the marriage to take -place in the early fall." "The lady," continued Captain Fon­ da, "also asked me to give you this paper, which she thought would save you the trouble of writing an edito­ rial notice." The paper read: "We must congratulate onr newly acquired citizen, Captain Randall Fon­ da, upon his conquest of the heart' of so amiable a lady as Miss MacOwen. She is the daughter of Mrs. Lucinda MacOwen, and granddaughter of the late Colonel Henry G. De Long, who was one of IMQrinville's most promi­ nent, Influential and wealthy citizens." The captain then retired, and be­ came thereafter the bearer of a re­ markable series of announcements, leading up to the wedding day. First came a notice stating that "Society was taking great interest in the an­ nounced betrothal of Colonel Fonda and Miss MacOwen, the lady being well known ks the granddaughter of the late Colonel G. De Long, who was one of McGinville's most prominent. Influential and wealthy citizens." Then there was the announcement of visits from numerous young ladies, who had coitne to congratulate the bride-expectant, "who was the grand­ daughter of one of McGinville's most prominent," etc. Finally, after a mul­ titude of receptions came the formal declaration: "The marriage of Miss Hortense Marie MacOwen and Captain Fonda will take place at high noon, October 12. Miss MacOwen is the granddaugh­ ter of the late Colonel Henry G. De Long, who was one of McGinville's most prominent. influential and wealthy citizens." When the foreman received this no­ tice he asked: "Why can't we keep this paragraph standing? The old grandfather seems to be destined to play his part all the way through, and we might as well make some 'fat' out of it?" He was a rude sort of fellow, with whose coarse wit I could have no sympathy, especially when a friend was concerned as groom. On the day preceding the wedding the notice was repeated, grandfather paragraph and all. Strangely enough the officiating minister omitted the name of the old gentleman in his per­ formance of the ceremony, but the Auraria Gazette next morning gave a prominent place to this notice: "Married, at the Church of St. Chry- eo6tom. Captain Randall Fonda and Miss Hortense Marie MacOwen. The bride is the granddaughter of the late in-ia latter calle chief. of ho am going to get married!" Henry G.

To him s: of Auraria remember with pleasure the marriage of Captain Randall Fonda and Miss Hortense Marie MacCwen. As the granddaugh­ ter of the late Cblonel Henry G. De Long, one of McGinville's most promi­ nent, Influential and wealthy citizens, the bride will be welcomed into our most select society upon her return." "Front page position, madame," said the editor, "I shall see personally that It gets there." The couple had to return, select a house, hold a reception, and In other ways keep before the public. There was no escaping the death grip of the old grandfather in each case, and It was not long until every reader took it for granted that the Colonel Henry G. De Long was to be found somewhere whenever Captain and Mrs. Fonda were mentioned. The captain was proud and buoy­ ant for a few days, then he began to walk with slower tread, and the cor­ dial smile had left his face. "No," he would say, "there is noth­ ing the matter with me--only a little K A marriage announcement attracted my attention. touch of the Ganges fever. It will soon be over." Calling into the office one night, later than usual, he was taciturn and uneasy. "A word with you," said he, "to be held secret. I know who Colonel Henry G. De Long was, but for the life of me I have never been able to locate the whereabouts of the late Mr. MacOwen. Heaven only knows how I can repress my curiosity!" Winter melted into spring, and sum­ mer came, giving way to autumn. As the sere leaves were falling into a new-made grave the remains of Cap­ tain Fonda were deposited therein. He had died without having his cu­ riosity enlightened. The Auraria Ga­ zette next day printed a notice, the manuscript of which was in the same old handwriting: "The death of the lale Captain Randall Fonda came as a great blow to his bereaved wife. Mrs. Fonda, as the granddaughter of the late Colonel Henry G. De Long, one of McGinville's most prominent, influential and wealthy citizens, has received the deep sympathy of those who have had the pleasure of knowing her during her brief married life." • • • The years have come and gone, and silver threads have Invaded raven hair. This old message from twenty years ago rests uneasily upon my mind, and In the effort to throw It off, the clipping is dropped upon the floor, and I pick up the McGinville Banner, just received by midnight mail. Eager­ ly tearing the wrapper I turn to the social column, where a marriage an­ nouncement attracted my attention. Mrs. Ealoner Finchman announces the engagement of her daughter, Miss Frances Agnes, to Henry Arthur Mountserrat. The notice goes on: "This marriage will be a notable af­ fair, because of the great social prom­ inence of the bride, who is the grand­ daughter of the late Colonel Henry G. De Long, one of McGinville's most prominent, influential and wealthy cit­ izens." The paper had dropped from my hand. The last street car for the sub­ urbs was sounding the gong, and 1 hastened to leave my ghostly company behind. There was too much grandfather. SHOULD SUCCEED IN LIFE. MONTANA PROCESS SERVERS. One Deputy Sheriff's Hardships in Getting a Witness. The perils of process serving in Montana in winter are more than those who dwell in cities realize. Think of a deputy sheriff who risked his life--and nearly lost it--and trav­ eled sixteen days to serve a subpoena on one witness. Clyde Osgood of Fergus county, is the deputy. Recent­ ly he was ordered, to^ervea^ witness In a state case. After many days' traveling in a wide and sparsely settled country he found his man at I andusky. In the Little Rockies, served him and started to return. On reaching the old cross­ ing of the Missouri below Rocky Point he was forced to take to a skiff. A thin crust of Ice, however, was on the river, and, not having the luck of George Washington on the Delaware, Osgood had to abandon the attempt. Then he tried to walk across. He suc­ ceeded until he reached the center and then he broke through. An ordinary man, says the Anacon­ da Standard, would have drowned. Montana sheriffs are not ordinary men, however, so Osgood finisned his journey by swimming, breaking the ice in front of him as he progressed. Reaching the other side he procured another horse and proceeded to Lew- iston, reaching there in sixteen days after his start. And he does not think he did anything unusual, either. Some people, after casting a crust of bread upon the waters, think they should get a bowl of milk-toast In re­ turn. Let him not be a lover who has not courage. Youth Demonstrates Ability to Get Results from Small Beginning*. One of the two boys who figure in this tale should get along in the world. His ability to get results with small provocation would seem to be great. Evidently, he has little affection for the smaller denominations of figures. When told by a gentle playfellow that the latter had been made a paternal present of a goat, he replied: "Hugh! My pop has a whole flock of goats down in his office." The other boy seemed amazed, but went on with his joyful narrative. "My papa bought me a wagon, too," he said. "Well, what of it?" he was asked. "My pop had BO many wagons he had to burn a lot of 'em, because he had no room for 'em." The gentle boy did not believe this. Moreover, to hear it pained him; for he had faith in what he learned in Sunday school. "Don't you know what happened to Ananias and Sapphira?" he asked. "They were struck dead for lying." Patently, this was not information to his companion, who responded--im­ patiently, perhaps, but without brav­ ado: "I know it I saw them struck." The Secret of Health in Old Age. Shepherd, 111., Jutfe 23d.--Saran E. Rowe of this place is now 72 years of age and just at the present time is en­ joying much better health than she has for over 20 years. Iler explana­ tion of this is as follows: "For many years past I have been troubled constantly with severe Kid­ ney Trouble, my urine would scald and burn when passing, and I was very miserable. "I am 72 years of age and never ex­ pected to get anything to cure me. but I heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills and thought it would do me no harm to try them. "I am very glad I did so, for they cured me of the Kidney Disease and stopped all the scalding sensations when passing the urine. "I feel better now than I have for twenty years." Ape Given a Banquet. At Richmond, Va., a huge pet ape, rejoicing In the name of Grim, was recently the chief guest at a banquet given in his honor. Grim won this distinction by dashing into a burning building and rescuing his master's children from a flery doom. The faith­ ful creature was publicly presented with a silver medal commemorating the event, and had every luxury be­ stowed upon him at the festive func­ tion, at which, it is said, "he behaved almost as decoiously as a human be­ ing."

To assist nature, when nature needs assistance, it is all important that the medicinal agents used should be of the best quality and of known value, and the one remedy which acts most beneficially and pleasantly, as a laxative, is--Syrup of Figs--manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. With a proper understanding of the fact that many physical ills are of a transient dial* acter and yield promptly to the gentle action of Syrup of Figs, gladness and comfort come to the heart, and if one would remove the torpor and strain and congestion attendant upon a con­ stipated condition of the system, take Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedom from the aches and pains, the colds and headaches and the depression due to inactivity of the bowels. In case of any organic trouble it is well to consult a competent physician, but when a laiative is required remember that the most permanently gratifying results will follow personal cooperation with the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs. It is for sale by all reliable druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle. The excellence of Syrup of Figs comes from the beneficial effects of the plants used in the combination and also from the method of manufacture which ensures that perfect purity and uniformity of product essential in a perfect family laxative. All the members of the family from the, youngest to the most advanced in years may use it whenever a laxative is needed and share alike in its beneficial effects.
