Dining-Room Hints.
Do not be tempted to leave your
table always set unless you have
a dining room used for no other
purpose and even then “don’t.”
There is so very little labor saved
and nothing gives such a board-
inghouse or restaurant air to a
room as an eveready table. Every
meal should be placed before one
with a dainty freshness all its
own and nothing is so fatal to this
idea as the perpetually set table.
If possible have a few freshly-
picked Howers every meal parti-
cularly at breakfast but here again
freshness is the main thing. Do
not let the same flowers appear
twice. Better a single newly-gath-
ered rose than the same old bunch
meal. Food in small quantities is
always more appetizing than in
large. Do not put on the whole
loaf of cake but a few prettily ar-
ranged pieces. The whole loaf of
bread on its wooden trencher is an
exception.

White Lady-Fingers.
A Boston cooking school receipt
for white lady-fingers is as fol-
lows: Beat the whites of four eggs
to a froth add half a level tea-
spoonful of cream of tartar and
beat until stiff; sift in gradually
half a cupful of fine granulated
sugar and beat without reversing
the motion. Remove the beater
and with a wooden spoon fold in a
little at a time half a cupful of
pastry flour that has been sifted
four times add a half a teaspoon-
ful of any desired flavor press
through a pastry bag and bake in
the small tins used for lady-fin-
gers. Sift powdered sugar lightly
over the fingers ami bake slowly
twenty minutes.
Brush that Raises No Dust.
An anti-dust brush says “Cas-
sell’s Family Magazine” has just
been patented the use of which
does away with any necessity for
sprinkling floors with water tea
leaves sawdust or any other me-
dium for preventing the rising of
dust during the sweeping of un-
carpeted floors. The brush itself
is circular in shape and is sur-
mounted by a metal reservoir in
which is carried a disinfecting
fluid “stourolene” by name. In
the ordinary way the brush is
used rigid but if the dust begins
to rise the pressing of a peg in the
handle allows the brush to revolve
and at the same time charges it
with the fluid.

A Word to the Ladies.
So many have admired some particu-
lar pattern hat of ours and say “That
just suits me. if I could have it tn an-
other color I would take It.’’ We ask her
to leave her order. She smiles and says:
“Oh no! You can’t work that racket on
me. I’ve tried that before right here in
San Antonio and I have been cheated
everytime. Either I get inferior ribbon
feathers or velvet or the shape is entire-
ly different from the pattern and the
dealer compels me to take It.” She has
been duped once and will not try it again.
"A sad commentary.” Now to those
ladies a word: We are here to stay. We
wish your confidence and will not abuse
it. We have the exact frame of each
pattern hat. There Is no milliner in New
York who' can do better work than we
turn out. Try us once and we’ll please
you beyond a doubt. We have the larg-
est mllinery business In. Galveston es-
tablished over sixteen years; nine-tenths
of our customers there leave their orders
and very very rarely is any alteration
needed. “Verbum sap"

The cable carried the touching
story ofthe Czar’s ailments and
their cause across the ocean. We
are told this:
Vienna Sept. 30.—The Tageblatt
publishes a letter from St. Peters-
burg stating that the Czar is suf-
fering with two distinct maladies.
I He has been affected for some time
with highly-developed neurasthe-
nia coupled with antenna. When
; the attacks are severer than usual
his whole household is alarmed.
The second disease was long in do
veloping. At first it was taken for
diabetes then Bright’s disease and
finally for a tuberculosis affection
of the kidneys. The kidney affection
was aggravated lately by a cold
contracted during a night visit to
his son Grand Duke George. Be-
fore he left St. Petersburg the Czar
on one occasion visited a telegraph
office at 1 o’clock in the morning
and sent a telegram to Abbas-
tuman inquiring after the Grand
Duke George’s health. His Ma-
jesty waited at the office for an
hour and a half for the reply
which when it came proved un-
satisfactory. He returned to his
bedroom and throwing himself in-
to a chair exclaimed: “Oh God
what have I done to be so severely
punished!”
On the night of Grand Duke
George’s arrival at Spala the Czar
visited his room after every-
body had retired for the night
passing half dressed through the
cold corridors. He watched his
sleeping son for a long time with
the result that he caught a chill.
The Czar like many other hu-
man beings is an affectionate pa-
rent. As David lamented over the
death of his son Absalom so the
mighty potentate of Russia la-
ments in a state of self denial over
his sick sick son George; he is hu-
man his heart is vulnerable.
L. Wolfson.
The Czar like many ordinary
mortals in the hour of visitation
feelsand confesses that there is a
God of justice above us who pun-
ishes the sinner according to his
wickedness and cries out “Oh
God what have I done to be so se-
verely punished.” There is no hy-
pocrisy in this exclamation and
nosimulation. The man who
has power unlimited whose
very command is law for
hundreds of millions of people who
reigns on earth like a demi-god in
the solitude and silence of night
overwhelmed with anxiety and ap-
prehension sorrow and griefkneels
in the dustand sings fortl £h is coi 3
fession his belief in a Gou of jus-
tice the dicta of righteousness as
Pharaoh of old groaning under
heavy visitations exclaimed : “God
is just I and my people are the
wicked.” You see the Czar is
human ;he sighs laments and be-
lieves.
And now comes the mystery. The
man whose command hurled into
the abyss of misery hundreds of
thousands of human beings; who
sends myriads of men and women
to the mines of Siberia to wear out
a miserable existence who drove
thousands to despair and suicide
to the gallows; the same man who
exiled tens of thousands of Jews
and dissenters drove the others
into crushing poverty and starva-
tion—This man in the hour of his
agony asks God what he has done
to be punished so severely. This
Is a psychological mystery a case
of self-delusion and self-deception
without parallel or precedent in
history so that we are inclined to
believe the whole story is fictitious
There can be no such contradic-
tion iu human nature and the
Czar is human after all no God
and no satan. Unless some one
solves this mystery we cannot be-
lieve this story.—American Israel-
ite.
