without permit Illegal parking of two Portapotties on carport Kidnapping and holding an assistant principal against his will Assault naming three drums 12 guitars and bass as weapons causing hearing damage to anyone within radius of 112 miles and sterility in ttyearold milkman who left his truck Unsanctioned gathering of 150 people in house built as single family dwelling causing the kitchen to become health and fire hazard There were also charges of neglect to the dog who hadnt been fed anything in three weeks except pizza and space dust but the testimony was weak But leaving small children constitutes neglect said the couple We know but it beats 746 Pollxs pointers Lemon helps on rust stains DEAR POLLY My Pet Peeve is with those who park their cars incorrectly and take parts of two spaces Also do get annoyed with those who drive the wrong way in the lanes of parking lots at shopping centers Due to the amount of iron in our well water have rust stains in the sink and lavatory Can someone tell me how to remove these stains have used several commercial products and none of them helped DJ DEAR DJ cut lemon will often remove iron rust stains but yours may be too deep for that to work Did you use rust remover and follow directions exactly as given Helen wrote that she had great success using commercial cleaner As last desperate move you might apply WEAK oxalic acid solution POISON with paper towel Leave on only FEW SECONDS or you will be In deeper trouble and then rinse off thoroughly POLLY DEAR POLLY Bathtime was always hassle with my four young children they never wanted to get out of the tub Now put the kitchen timer in the room and set it for reasonable length of time so they know how much time they are allowed When the bell rings they are to get out Now bathtime is fun MRS DFB DEAR POLLY Our molasses cookie recipe calls for two or three drops of water on top before baking and my daughter discovered an easy way to apply the water Instead of trying to put two or three drops on each one she sprays cold water across the top of the sheet of uncooked cookies by using glass plant mister When baked the cookies look and taste as good as any have ever bought in bakery MRS RAW DEAR POLLY When there is new baby in the family it is great to keep boiled water in quart thermos bottle This allows one to prepare ounce bottle instantly with no heating Also
