Takes Ink Out of Fabric.
The quickest way to remote an lul
spot from a white fabric Is to cover
the blemish with crushed crystals of
oxalic acid, drop on wa er enough to
moisten them, rub them well into tin
fabric, and then turn on boiling ttatet
and rub gently until the spot fades
Then wash out the acid with soap and
water and the last trace of the ink
will go with it. The knack of using
oxalic arid iu this way without weak
filing the textile lies solely In the
quickness with which the work Is done
and its thorough removal immediately.

STAIRCASE A HIGH ONE
By 20,000 Steps Cut in the Rock. Mt
Omi Is Climbed.
For the ascent of mt omf. on the
borderland between western China
and the Tibetan plateau, there is an
artificial stalrca ■■ consisting of 20,000
st<m>s, cut in slippery limestone.
Who made these steps Is largely a
matter of surmise, but they were
probably formed by religious enthusi-
asts, to protlde a means of access
from the hot plain* out of which the
mountain mass rises abruptly to the
heights, 5,0110 lo ii.end feet above,
amongst which the Buddhist abbey of
Omi einbodie some of the holiest tra
ditions of the religion professed bv Its
'n mates.
Anyhow, the staircase is there, and
by it many pilgrims attain the shrine.
