TIIAT HORRID STAIN. Every housewife at times has trying experiences with stains, but there are some common agents by which stains and discolorations can be removed, proved by home • economics experts. Colored candle wax dropped on table linen can be eradicated by applying a riot iron and two pieces of blotting paper which absorb the wax. Then the color is removed by soaking material in denatured alcohol for a few min- utee: Fruit, tea, coffee and chocolate dis colorations are removed by holding the cloth taut over a bowl and pouring boiling water over the stain. A paste of borax and cold water, with much rinsing, takes out chocolate easily and usually grease spots yield to soap and hot water treatment. Iron rust conies out by applying a paste of table salt and lemon juice several times, alter- nating with steam from the tea kettle spout. Black grease or tar Stains can be removed by . rubbing spots with lard, then wash in hot suds. Javelle water is a good commercial bleach, but it can't be used on colored materials as it destroys color, Use only on cotton ar.cl linen, Make a solu- tion of equal parts of water and the bleach, soak cloth in it few minutes, rinse well mid in the last rinsing add a few dro of clear ammonia water, Mlnard's L edenent for Dandruff, "Help the Velerarla" To help solve the problems of the Veterans' Associations, a Dominion. wide campaign for funds is now being conducted in the form of a Poster Judging Competition.

CALLAHAN & Co, 210 FRONT ST. NEW YORK 7777 - GUILDHALL LIBRARY IS 500 YEARS OW d., The present year marks the, 500th anniversary of the founding of the. Guildhall Library, the home of the most complete eollsetion of London books, prints, leaps, rued plans in exist- ence, The first mention of the library occurs in the corporation records of 1425, probably about: two years after "the new house" for books had been built next to the Guildhall Chapel. . The foundation was due to the gene- rosity of Richard Whittington, the Lol'd Mayor of the famous cat story, and to one William Bury. The library was erected by the executors of these two leer, and given into the custody of the "Mayor, Aldermen and Conimuni- ty," The benefactions of other citi- zens quickly followed, among then} be- ing some "good or rare boons" be- queathed -by John Carpenter, the com- mon cleric and founder of the City of London School, who died about 1442, For a century and a quarter the Guildhall Library served its useful purpose. No catalogue remains of the contents in those early days, but prob- ably most of the volumes were theo•: logical and were read by the clsrg and students preparing for hold c;' dens. Men like Sir Thomas More, -it'' let, Erasmus, and other scholarseu fifteenth and early sixteenth rewi may well have delved freelyi4!l' medieval storehouse of learns -t Stolen by Lord Protector In the reign of Edward VL, pro in 1543, came a catastrophe. All the ""`" books were stolen by the Lord Pro- tector, the Duke of Somerset. Stow furnishes the record of this cool ducal conflcatlon—"these books (se it is said) were in the raigne of Edward the 6 sent for by Edward, Duke of Somerset, Lord Protector, with pro- mise to be returned shorty; teen laded from thence three carriers with them, but never returned. This librarie' « * " is now lofted through and made a storehouse for clothes." The library, surely enough, was handed over in 1560 to Sir John Ayilf, Knight, for the term of his .natural life, to be used as a "m'ket howse for the sale of clothes and none ..other wyse." The Corporation made no attempt to reinstate the library until nearly three hundred years later. Then in; 1824 some obscure apartments in the Guildhall were set aside for the pur- pose of the new library, and four years later—the interval being wisely spent in the acquisition of rare and, interesting London books—a collec- tion of 1350 works was made avail- able. From that time the growth of the library has been steady, and in 1869, the number of volumes Having far outgrown the accommodation, the present building was constructed at a cost of $300,000, Among its 200,000 hooks the Guild- hall Library possesses some treasures, the chief being a first folio Shakes- peare and a Shakespeare deed bearing one of the three known signatures of the poet. Music Belongs to Every- body. When you speak of music or of tak ing music lessons, what generally comes to your mind? Of course the fortes and kinds of music and musical instruments that you are accustomed to hear and use. We think of pieces, songs, planes, organs, violins and the other instruments of our orchestras and bands, and we also think of the music that we often hear that is made by machines and records. But Just think of all the many parts of the world where people love musks an their own instruments, which are not all like our own. Think of coun- tries where they have never seen pianos, for instance, and yet the peo- ple in those countries have had music for hundreds and hundreds of years. Everywhere people have tried to in- vent instruments that would slake music and rhythm from the earliest antiquity to the present time. The American Indian had a great deal to do with music, and he madeflutes of bone and wood, and many varieties of queer drums and rattles from plants, sometbink like pumpkins, and they sang a great deal. The Chinese make lots of instru- ments of. metal and wood and strings, The Turks and Persians and all the. Eastern, countries have their, own musical instruments. Even the South Sea 'Islanders. have instruments and sing. But of course we would prob- ably dislike the sound that they call music, because we are accustomed to more perfect instruments and our MUSIC is mora highly developed. Some music thatwe call beautiful they could not understaud at all, and they would call our nmsic weird, which Is jest exactly what we call theirs. 0 -`fit u a? � Thoroughly Realized. 101 hlother—"f don't believe you realize what a great thing' education is!„ 2nd Mother—"Don't1 though!
