The Song of the Delegate. . MATTERS not my name or age, The fashion of my clothes, The way I have my whiskers trimmed, The color of my hose, The balance due me at the bank, My native town or State, The nation waits upon my word— Iam a delegate. Columbus had a seat in front When Glory called the roll, And Dewey sank the Spanish ships, And Peary found the Pole, And Lincoln was a famous man, And Washington was great, But I am greater yet, behold! lam a delegate. The eagle’s feather in my hat, I proudly take my stand. Iam the show, the street parade, The elephant and band. I nominate man renowned Who will administrate; I make the wheels of fate go 'round— lam a delegate. —Minna Irvine. Time's Changes. “T reckon you see the old town lookin’ some diff’rent from what it looked when you left it thutty years ago,’’ said Uncle Eb Skinner to the native returning fora visit to the scenes of his boyhood. ‘*All o’ the back part 0’ Peevy's store is new since your day here, an’ that bay winder in the drug store was put in since you left us. The deepo used to be painted yeller instid 0’ red, an’ the town hall is het by steam now instid 0’ with stoves, like it used to was in your time. Them two iron hitch posts in front 0’ the post- office ain’t been there more than ten years, an’ that stone watering trough instid 0’ the old wooden one you remem- ber is another change. I reckon you’ve noticed that Hi Greene has raised his house a story an’ added a summer kitchen, That piazzy in front o’ the hotel is another change in the old town, an’, of course, you've noticed the new hoss sheds back o’ the church, an’ the broom shop wa'n’t here when you was a boy with us. It employs five hands reg’- lar an’ seven in the rush season. Time makes changes, as I reckon you have seen."" Good. Friend—‘'Then you had a satisfactory Season?"’ Theatrical manager—''Very! Two of our most antagonistic critics died. "’ Wants the Air. If you wed an aeroplane girl, Her weight in gold she’s worth. With little she’ll be satisfied— She doesn’t want the earth. 21 MW.

THE EXPERIENCED LAUNDRESS GIVES | ADVIGE*THOSE WITH LAUNDRY TROUBLES ASHING and ironing should not be anything like the task that they are made in many households. In fact, intelligently done there is little worry and the results are a delight tothe housewife. A great deal depends on the selection of the right materials. Starch for instance has everything to do with your success. Good starch will actually improve the appearance of bad washing and poor starch willdo much to ruin the appearance of the most thoroughly washed fabric. | Take the dainty whiteness and lightness in lingerie waists and fine underwear--it is really as much a result of good starching as perfect washing. All starch will stiffen fabrics, cheap starches stain because the minerals have not been removed and they leave tell-tale spots on the clothes. The sure way is to insist on Kingsford’s Silver Gloss Starch. This starch is always pure, clean and umform. You can depend on it absolutely. Kingsford’s has been used by good laundresses for three generations as the reliable starch for hot or cold starching and for all kinds of work coarse or fine.
