SE% of the NE*4 and the NEJA of
the SE^ of Section 9; and the
SWJA of the NW14 of Section 10;
all in Twp. 10 N., R. 2 W.
Notice is hereby given that Wil
liam F. Roberts did on the 19th day
of January, 1918, file in the office of
the Clerk of the Chancery Court of

claiming to be the owner of and pray

and to have the same quieted and es

FOR THE HOUSE
WIFE’S SCRAPBOOK.
Your white silk blouse will not
turn yellow if you wrap it in a clean
white cloth after washing and leave
it there until sufficiently dry to be
ironed.
If your ivory handled knives have
become yellow, cut a lemon in half,
dip it in salt and rub handle well.
It will soon look like a new knife.
To freshen up your black gown
mix one part alcohol with three parts
water and sponge garment on the
right side, then iron on the wrong
side.
Machine oil stains should be re
moved from the garment before put
ting them into the wash. Hot water
will set the stain. Rub the stains ■
with soap and wash in cold water.
If you boil clothespins a few min
utes and quickly dry them once or
twice a month they will last longer
and you will find them moi’e flexible.
If each pair of stockings are
grinned together at the hem with a
small safety pin when putting them
into the wash, time will be conserved
in sorting, and on these cold days
you will appreciate the time saved in
hanging them on the line.
When your dainty crepe or silk
blouse becomes faded or you are tiij
ed of the shade you can easily restore
or change the tone. Simply im
merse scraps of crepe paper in water
until the desired shade is produced.
Remove paper and dip the bl use in
to the water until it reaches the
proper shade. This can be removed
at any time by washing the waist
and then another color can be ap
plied. Thus a white or delicate col- j
ored blouse can be made to do ser
vice in several colorings.
If your bodkin is not at hand and
you are in a hurry take a safety pin
and run it firmly into the end of the
ribbon. Clasp the pin and you will
find the improvised bodkin will work
quite as well as the real article.
Save the water in which rice or
macaroni is boiled. It will thicken
when cold and prove a substitute for
flour. It can also be used as a basis
fov soups and is excellent for toma
to or celery soup.
Use newspaper to remove the
grease from the stove after cooking.
The grease and accumulations in the
sink can be removed by the same me
thod. It will save labor and the
newspaper can be either burned 01
thrown away.
