Two Uses of Salt.
Marble often tries tie housewife’s
patience by its readiness to accumulate
soil. It may be rapidly and easily
cleaned, however, by the liberal appli-
cation of common dry salt. This re-
quires no prepara: on and is snnedily
effectual. Another form in which salt
is used is in combination with vaseline
to cleanse hands that have become
grimy through housework. Rub the
mixture well into the hands and then
wash thoroughly with ordinary soap.
To those who are accustomed to
sending away from home for their
goods it is of the greatest importance
to know the character and reliability
of the establishments selling goods to
families from catalogues. The great
emporium of the John M. Smyth Co.,
located at 150 to 166 West Madison
Street, Chicago, has been established
for a third of a century, and has fur-
nished over a half a million homes in
Chicago and vicinity alone. This firm
enjoys the confidence of the public by
its many years of fair dealing. It is-
sues an immense illustrated catalogue
that should be in every family, as it
describes and gives the price of every
article required for household use. A
sample of the extraordinary values of-
fered by this firm is shown in the illus-
tration of the lady’s ulster in another

What will the inventive brain of
man do next? This is a question some
one asks almost daily. There is one,
though, who leads all others, who for
a quarter of a century has been making
fine laundry starch, and to-day is of-
fering the public the finest starch ever
placed on the market.
Ask your grocer for a coupon book
which will enable you to get the first
two packages of this new starch. "RED
CROSS” (trade mark brand), also two
children's Shakespeare pictures, paint-
ed in twelve beautiful colors, natural as

endar, all absolutely free. All gro-
cers are authorized to give ten large
packages of "RED CROSS STARCH"
with twenty of the Shakespeare pic-
tures of ten of the Twentieth Century
Girl Calendars to the first five purchas-
ers of the "ENDLESS CHAIN
STARCH BOOK.” This is one of the
greatest offers ever made to introduce
