.—-•on Morning.
“Good morning gentlemen."’ said the new
comer as he joined a group this morning.
“It isn’t a good morning’’ responded on*
of those greeted.
“I mean I hope you have had a good morn-
ing” said number one.
“But we haven’t” camo the unanimous re-
ply.
“What 1 meant” said the new comer
“was that I hope you would have had a
good morning if it had been a good morn
ing"
“We would but as it wasn’t we didn’t’'
was the reply.
“Well then good afternoon” said the new
comer and off be walked.—Providence Jour
nal.
He Was a Reporter.
Little Wife—Ob Btlward you should have
been at the mat ineel Herr Samson was
wonderful! He supported bis wife and three
sons with bis shoulder and arm.
Observant Husband —And you call that
wonderful? I a knock kneed consump-
tive little reporter who supports himself his
wife his wife’s mother and five children with
his little cedar pencil.—Exchange.
She Could.
“Canyou manage a typewriter?” asked one
maried lady of another. “Can 1 manage a
typewriter? 1 should say so. 1 made three
leave my husband’s office within the last
two months and the last is so homely that
John is almost afraid of her. The manage-
ment of a typewriter is an art but I’ve got
it down fine.”—Merchant Traveler.
An Elegant Paragol.
Parasols aud gloves cause me very little
annoyance as I always get.a lot of them at a
time and have them in assorted tints so 1
can make a selection to suit my eostume. The
parasol I prize above all others is that of
ostrich feathers carried by me in “Nadjy. 1
Over three hundred white tips are used in its
construction.—Lil Lian Russel 1.
Odor Prevention in Cooking.
An ingenious device for preventing the
odor ot cooking from escaping into a room
has been patented. The invention is of the
simplest possible description and consists of
a hood with folded sides er leaves which
covers the sides of the stoves. The odor passes
into tliC hood and is carried directly into the
chimnev. —New York Telegram
I'be washerwomen of Holland noted forth*
whiteness of their linen use refined borax as
t washing powder using a large handful of
rhe borax to about ten gallons of water. This
will not injure tne texture of the linen in the
least and is also good in washing blankets
and woolen goods
At the women's congress at the Paris exhi-
bition presided over by Mlle. Deraismes the
"greatest woman speaker in the world” an
interesting paper on the “Industrial Women
of Sweden” was read by Mme. Fries. They
are bank clerks and managers even profes-
sors in boys’ high schools working jewelers
watch makers and engaged in every sort of
wood carving. The education of nearly every
Swedish girl who was not born to fortune
was the lecturer said in a great degree in-
dustrial. There is no doubt the speaker
added that the Swedish woman will soon re-
ceive equal political rights.—San Francisco
Argonaut.
Medicated Blackberry Cordial.
A correspondent of The Christian Advocate
has sent to that paper the following recipe
for medicated blackberry cordial which she
says was obtained from a celebrated physician
in the lower part of the state and has been
used with great success:
Two quarts blackberry juice one pound
loaf sugar half ounce nutmeg half ounce
cinnamon half ounce cloves quarter ounce
allspice and one pint brandy. Pulverize the
spices and add to the juice and boil for a
short time. When cold add the brandy.
Keep in a coel place. Dose from a teaspoon-
ful to a wineglass according to the age until
relief is procured.
The Drum at an Afternoon Party.
U is with much alarm that I read in a
London journal of a young lady playing on
the drum at an afternoon party. She was
accompanied by her sister on the piano and
the performance is claimed to have been de-
lightful. Having gone through every form
of musical torture the drum solo is the last
thing left for society’s edification. but there
is something uncanny in the idea of that
hollow instrument becoming a rival to the
fiddle or the banjo. It looks ns though soci
sty was sadly put to it for entertainment
when the drum is brought into requisition
In such a connection it is a dead tieat.—Bos-
ton Herald.
It Is a Masculine Siu.
“Dr. Hammond’s alarming paper on the
misuse of ice water will do no good” says a
woman writer "It is men who are the
greatest sinners in drinking quarts of half
frozen water when overheated and just be-
fore dinner and he need not expect tiiat
newspaper men will ridicule the faults of
their own sex. If be had written a paper on
the abuse of ice cream every editor west of
the A lleghanies would have quoted him ap-
provingly day after day until his whole arti-
cle had been reprinted in sections but the
abuse of ice cream is a feminine vice.” Too
bad about those editors.—New "York Tele
gram.
Small Feet tn China.
In a recent article on the empress dowager
of China The London Spectator sjxike of tbe
empress as "a lady probably with crippled
feet.” This was a misapprehension. The
Mantchus of which race comes the reigning
dynasty of China do not cripple the feet of
their women; therefore the ladies of the im-
perial family are not and never have been
subject to this degrading and demoralizing
practice. It is the Chinese proper the sub-
ject and not the conquering race who tor
ture and maim their women.
A half hour on the salt water is enough to
burn a fair skinned person’s face till it blis-
ters. A liberal application of baby powder
will in a degree prevent this or if that is
not handy cornstarch or flour will answer
the same purpose. Bathe the sunburned parts
in cream or buttermilk which is more cool-
ing and healing. Lemon juice is remedial in
the case of tan.
The difficulty of overturning the pages of
tong music has been overcome by using pretty
tittle tassels of various coLrs which are at-
tached to the edges of tbe sheets of music by
little slip* of parchment' tbe inner surface of
watch ie gummed.
