USES OF GLYCERIN.
Has Many Practical Uses Not Gener
ally Understood.
There are some articles which we
hove about the house so much that we
alluost cease to think what we can use
them for, says the Philadelphia Ledger.
We have had them so long and used
thet in the same ways so often that
we rarely think of trying them in a
new way.
Per"ips the most Common of these
articles is. glycerin. Coffee stains can
be removed from table linen and from
the uost delicate silks by birusl'ig
the spot with glycerin. Ilinso w% III
lukewiarm water and press on tihe
wrong side. If the material is ve -y
delicate, care shold be taken no- to
wet mlore of it :hn possible andl to
have the Iron very cool.

washe'd to keep the wiido, .i from be

To rfacovl. stains from white 11l111l,
lake etiual parts or glycerin and yolk
of erg. Soak tihe spot and wash in soft
water. (ilycerini has great softening
properties. 1t car Ie iset to soften fne
water. Try two tablespoonsfuls of gly
cerin in the water in which you soak
your clothes, and two tablespoonfuls
of glycerin in the boiling water.
Add a tablespoonful of glycerin to
the water with which the floor is
scrubbed. It will not only soften the
water, belp make thd table and floor
white, but will protect the hands and
kcep them soft and white.
When the children's shoes are hard
after being wet, apply a little glycerin,
Iafter they have become dry with a
piece of absorhent cotton. They will
absorb and tha ;ed4ty will be a8
soft as ever. P16tent leather shoes can
sometImes be kept from cracking If
glycerin Is used to soften them.
lIlut glycerin is also used in cooking.
Did you ever try measuring a tea
spoonfil of glycerin to each pound of
fruit when cooking jelly or preserves,
to keep a sugary coat from forming oil
top?
Wlien frint is stewevod, use one 111ble
[(oonful of glyc'erin to each pound of
fi uit, either fresh or dried. Any fruit
rcittirinrg sugar is improved by the ad
diilon of glycerin.

du1 iring the day and the Ireatrient ap

Gycerini mixes with wvaler readily. it
is said to be a good v. ash and softener
for the 'hands. Glycerin is a by-pro
duct of soap and candle factories. All
fats contain it. For this reason a per
son httving a greasy skin rarely finds
glycerin helpful or beneficial in soften
ing the skin; but those who have drier
skins and need the king of food t'ast
glycerin contains find it very useful
and helpful.
There are .many uses to which it
may -be put, such as softening' leather
pocketbooks, bags and polishing dull
shoes. It, pays to study and expert
ment with it whenever possible.

UlTIII Gatunn locks proved to lie quite a deterrmining factor In the building
of the l'anan ennal. When the work: was started there Was a saying
that "the lentgth of time It (lakes to build the eanal depends on the
time It takes to build the Culebra cut." But later the words " Gatun
locks" were subtituted for "Culebra cut."
There is a system of three twin locks at Gatlin. Two million five hundred
thousand cubie yards of concrete were nsed In their construction. In conjunc
tion with the Gatun dam they serve to hold back the tremendous force of
water from the Gatun Iake, whieh Is eighty-live feet above sen levelI. Three
levels of locks raise boats from the Atlantie level to the eight-ive foot level.
