REVISION OF
CURRENT RATES
(Written for The Chronicle)
In this > issue c of The Chronicle ap
pears an advertisement of the city,
showing revised electric current rates,
classified under the three heads of
lighting rates; coftkifig and heating
rates, and manufacturing rates.
The^ revision was found necessary
by the fact that the recent revision
mt the income from electric current
about 40 per cent, whereas the saving
in changing from Steam produced cur
rent to hydro electric current nets only
about 15 per cent. The new rates rep
resent fractionally more than 15 per
'"ert reduction fronv the old rates here
tofore in effect, but are higher than
the new rates published a mpnth or
so ago.
The loss resulting the new
amounted to about $14,000 a
Itp year, while the saving from hydro-
- j electric current amounted to only

Things to Remember
When Washing Silks
Silk is the universal, fabric, for it
adapts itself to elaborate of simple
designs—tailored in tinish or berutiled
and lace trimmed.
But if one is not careful in wash
ing her silk garments, says a corre
spondent. they are apt to become
faded and bedraggled ere half their
days. Extremes of heat and cold are
t>ud for both. Harsh soups ruin silk
as they redden and roughen your face.
\> hisk one tablespoonful of a re-
iable washing powder Into a thick
lUthcr in a wash bowl half full of
very hot water. Add cold water till
lukewarm. Dip the garment up and
down. pressing suds repeatedly
through soiled spots. Rinse in three
lukewarm waters. Squeeze water out
—do not wring. Roll in a towel; when
nearly dry press with a warm iron—
never a hot one.
For colored silks, make* suds and
rinsing waters almost cool. Wash
very quickly to keep colors from run
ning.
Never wring or twist silks; It makes^
the smooth silk threads slip over on^f
another and give a wavy appearance
which is permanent. Water should
be squeezed or shaken out. It is well
to place a very delicate silk between,
Hoths while squeezing. *
Don’t sprinkle silks. It makes them
look spotty and this appearance can
only be overcome by relaundering.
Pure white silk (not cream) may b«
-slightly- blued.
' Press silks on the wrong side white
they are still damp, or place a thin
cloth over the right side of the silk
and iron. The latter method Is often
better for very thin silk.
A hot Iron should never be used on
silk. It will cause the silk to'split.
It also makes It stiff and papery and
will yellow It.
What Do Yofr Think?
Specialist: “If you saw a man with
nothing on but the brim of a straw
hat and with a cake of soap in his
hand, jump over Niagara Falls—you
wouldn’t think he was crazy?” .
Insurance Lawyer: “Certainly not.
I would think he was going to take a
bath.” ' I

Oldtimer Speaks
Oldbird: “My wife has a big mind
-r* large mind.”
Friend: “Yes?”
Oldbird: “Yes—ryes, indeed." She’s
given me a piece of-ft every day for
the last fifty years-—and seems to still
have plenty left.”
Blonde Bess Opines
“Mother has ceased to worry about
the price of coal so I told her to thiflk
of ice.”

Hush, little savings, don’t you cry.
You won’t go as taxes—
'Cause HI lie and lie.

Bright Colors Favored J

“High colors for street wear and
anything but black for formal wear”
is the impression gathered from a
survey of the Paris fashions. Green

ularly good, and all of the beige (ones
are receiving a great deal of favor.
There is no doubt that there is
more fullness In skirts, and flares
from the knee down are more in evi
dence than ever. Some plaited ef
fects are Introduced to give fullness,
but these are not as numerous as the
flared lines, which give a great deal
of charm to shorter skfrts.
Quite a few of the new things sug
gest a belt-line, and the effect it
achieved without breaking the
straight line of the silhouette in any
way. ✓

CHANGE IN TIME OF
KIWANIS MEETING
The regular meeting of the Clinton
Kiwanis Club will be held this even
ing at 7:30 at the Clinton Hotel, in
stead of the usual Friday evening
hour. The change is made to avoid
a conflict with the chautauqua and
all members are urged to be present.
We recommend Wiz

Gem Polish for the
Spring cleaning of that
old furniture. It is dlso
fine for your automobile
or any wood work. We
have it in 60c bottles or
$1.25 cans. Fuller-Simp-
talked of than seen, and the scarf as ,™| FuiTUtlire Company, 'o
part of the dress Is one of the most r
popular finishings which has gained
rather than lost prestige In the mid
season groups.
Deep Fringes Graceful;
Provide Nice Decoration
There is something perennially fas
cinating to women about the careless
grace of silk fringes. Perhaps l{ is
an Inheritance from primitive days,
when wild grasses formed! the mate
rial with which the /eternal feminine’
■.'ratified. her desire for adornment.
No doubt the South Sea Island craze
has Influenced the mode for fringe,
while the lovely Spanish shawls have
taught American women the beauty of
:he softly falling "fringe border.
An especially lovely-Wnsemble was
trimmed with fringe. The chic hut
•dmple dress, and the accompanying
roat were^ both bordered with silk
fringes id two tiers. The dress was
built on wrap-around or coat lines and
showed the new surplice line, opening
over a lame vest. The suppje coat
followed exactly the jines of the dress,
beneath and was lapped over and held,
m the side.
Taffeta for the Teen-A|fe Girl
Youthful and charming Is a frock of
vhite taffeta with a wide fall skirt
»CHlloped around the bottom and edged
with u shaped border of yellew taffeta.
The tight sleeveless bodice has a ahab
low decolietage finished with a shaped
collar,of yellow taffeta sintl.uv to Ui"
boiler An the skirt.
DREADFUL PAINS
Thi* Lady Suffered Severely,
Took Cardoi, and Got Well
Mrs. George S. Hunter; of
Columbus, Ga., writes: •
“I suffered with •dreadful pains
in my sides during ... My side
hurt so bad it nearly killed me. 1
had to go to bed and stay some
times two weeks at a time. I
could not work and I just dragged
around the house.
“I got very thin—I went from 126
pounds down^tq less than 100. My
mother had long been, a user of
Cardui and she knew wjiatagood
medicine it was for this trouble, so
she told me to get some and take it.
1 sent to the store after it and be-
fq>e I had taken the. first bottle 1
began to improve.
“My sides hurt less and I began
lo improve in health. .. The Cardui
acted as % fine tonic and I do not
feel like the same person. I am so
much better. 1 am well now.
"1 have gained 10 pounds and
am still gaining. My sides do nbt
trouble me at all.-
“I wish every suffering woman
knew about Cardui.’*-.
