One Way to Have Pretty Hands.
Not only ladies should have pretty hands
—a rough, untidy pair of hands is just as
unnecessary for a tnan to have as a woman
—beautiful white hands very many cau
have if nature has been kind enough to be-
stow upon them fair skins. All may have
neat -looking, smooth hands. A lemon, some
oatmeal, palm oil soap and tepid water, and
a few ounces of glycerine, will be all -suffi-
cient to accomplish the desired result. After
the hands are svashea clean in the water, to
evhieh bas been added a tablespoenful of
oatmeal and a teaspoonful of glycerine, and
the pabn oil soap freely used, rub over the
wet hands the lemon juice; apply it
especially well aaout tbe naile, for it. hardens
the skin and prevents the formation of hang
nails. If the hands are rough and seals., or
bleed, before beginning this treatment free-
ly (every dine the hands are washed) a
mixture of glycerine and compound tincture
of benzoin (one ounce of the benzoin to four
of the glycerine) until all soreness and raw -
nese has been removed. Then the persistent
use of the oatmeal and lemon will be suffi-
cient to keep the hands soft and tidy.

A Ranted Haat
Black Mammy, dear soul, believed devout-
ly in "hants,"but Billy, whom she had
nursed and brought up to twelve years old,
laughed Snell things quite to score. He was
it mischievous fellow, and although he loved
Black Mammy dearly, thought it great fun
to scare her out of her wits.
She was very fond of going to "night.

yard, and. there Billy determined to give
her a glorious fright. It took all day to
make the ghost which was that night to
confront, her. For the head, Billy cut eyes
and mouth 'ir a big gourd, inside of which
he meant to place a couple of lighted can-
dles. The gourd topped a pole, with cross
arms tacked on, from which a drapery of
white window curtains fell long and full.
Billy himself would be sheltered in their
folds and by raising the pole above his head,
could make the spectre at least ten feet
high.

when the meeting -goers came well in view,
a straggling procession of men and women,
with here and ehere a lantern feebly blink-

hint, Billy uncovered the flaming gourd head,
pushed it up, up, to the full height, giving
out, as he did it, a screech -owl's cry.
Tom and black Charley were to answer
it with the flash of red -fire. Instead came
a smothered exclamation, " Lordy ! I done

Before groping fingers could find them,
there came a patter of sharp awiftfootfalls
behind. Something took Billy hard in the
knees, sent him and the ghost sprawling,
Tom and black Charley scuttling away as
fast as their legs could carry them.
Billy heard the black boy crying out:

A Prieteess's Daring Crime.
Princess Gortehakoff, whose inageificent
house in the Faubourg St, Germain In Paris
has been the scene of so many brilliant fes.
tivides daring the last two or three seasons,
a Paris correspondent writes, has jut been
informed of the feet that the Supreme
Court of Appeal in Bucharest had rendered
deeision against her in the lawsuit which
had been brought by her brother, Prince
GregoryStourdza, for the recovery of
the major part ot the enormous fortune
which came into her possession at the
time of the death of her mother at Baden-
Baden about four years ago. At the time of
the old Princess Stourdza's death her daugh-
ter, Princess Gortchakoff, was the • only
member of the family who was with her.
It was well known to the friends and rel-
atives of alme. de Stourdza, that she was
in the habit of wearing day and night a soft
leather belt, strapped around her body,
containing all her most valuable securities,
jewels and title deeds. That this belt was
there in its place
AT. VIE MOMENT
of her death is shown' by the sworn evi.
deuce of the two Sisters of Mercy who tend-
ed her throughout her last Maces. During
the night %Odell followed the demise her
daughter spent several hours alone with the
corpse, and the next day when it was placed
in the coffin the Slaters of Mercy noticed
that the belt had disappeared. Nor was
this ell. Moreover, it appears from the evi-
dence given during the numerous lawsuits
which have taken place on the subjeot both
in France and Roumania, that in the very
moment when the death agony of the old
Princees began her daughter almo, de (ort.
chakoff, despatched a telegram to Paris sum-
moning a clever looksmitha Landrey, who
was kuown to have designed the locks of
the four steel safes in whiclt the old woman
hoarded all such of her valuables as she was
unable to get into her leather belt. Landrey
arrived on the evening before the funeral
and spent the whole night with Mme, de
Gortchakoff in picking the locks of the
safes, the keys of which had been so care-
fully hidden away by the old lady that it
was impossible to find them. When, at
length, the local authorities presented them-
selves at the villes to make the dulyprescrib-
ed inventory of the property left by deceas-
ed, it was chime -eared thatover V2,000,000had
MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARED,
and no trace thereof was to be fouod. On
being informed of the feat, Prince Gregory
Stourdza began proceedings against his
sis-
ter for the purpose of compelling her to
surrender the portion of his mother's for-
tune due to him as the eldest son under bis
parents' will. One of the wises of the long
delay withal bas characterised the proceed-
ings has been due to the detention in pris-
on.in Germany of two of the prinemaa
witnesses against the Princess. These
were her maid and her groom of the
chambers, who had been present with
her at the time whoa the safes were
being rifled of their contents on the night
before the funeral. Mme. de Gortchakoff had
attempted to purchase the silence of then
two confidential servants by means of a gift
to themof a portion of tho dead lady's
goods. As soon, however, as they allowed
themselves to be subpcenaed as witnesses
againstherby her brother she caused thorn
to be arrested tit Frankfort by tbe German
police on a charge of having • robbed her of
her diamonds. As the valuables were tound
among the effects of the two servants in
question the case looked black against
them. judicial proceedings are slow in
Germany, and it was only after a year and
a half of imprisonment at Frankfort that
they succeeded in establishing their inno-
cence and obtaining their freedom, much to
the disgust of Mme, ee Gortehakoff. The
Roumanian Courts now celled upon her to
surrender the tnajcr part of her fortune to
lier brother, Prince Gregory,. and, inasinuch
as he has brought t•he trial against her not
only on oivil but also
ON CRIMINAL GROUNDS,
it is confidently expected atPari that she
will be under the necessity of acceding to
his demands. Her histnay is a strange one.
The only daughter of the late ex-Hospoder
of Moldavia and of his wife, the Princess
Vogorides, sbc was married in the year 1805
to Prince Constantin Gortchakoff, the son
of the famous Russian Chancellor of that
name. The bonds of niatrimony, however,
became odiouato her, and she determined
to get rid of him as soon as possible after
the death of her father-in-law, of whom she
stood in great dread. She gave her hus-
band. every kind ot provocation and ground
for making charges against her that would
lead hiin to apply few a divorce, but with-
out success. In teat the more she display.
ed her anxiety to secure the dissolution of
her marriage, the less inclination did her
husband show to meet her itiews it, the
master. Despairing of driving her husband
to sue for an annulment of the marriage, she
lodged a petition against him at St. e'eters-
burg and at Bucharest, but hi both cities
the Holy Synods rejected her demand on
the ground that. tbe charges which she was
able to bring against her husband did. not
',furnish a sufficient cause for the dissclution
of the union. At Constantinople, however,
she was more successful, and by dint of
enormous bribes she was able to induce the
Orthodox Patriarch there to decree the dis-
solution of her marriage. It is needless to
add that the decree in question is regarded
as entirely invalid both in Russia and in
Roumania, the Synod on the Bosphorus
having no legal power to deal with her case.

Fleet Street London and neighbourhood

they appear in swarms, and cause infinite
annoyance to the unoffending occupants,
who are savagely bitten in unprotected parts

irritation is set up which sometimes lasts
for more than a weelr. They are a small
kind of mosquito, but are quite as trouble-
some as the Australian breed. They move
about with marvellous celerity, and have a
curious knack of making themselves invisi-
ble. The theory is that these little tor-
mentors have been imported from -Algeria

focation., The lad had dug a tunnel, and
in order to get more coy access to the in-
side tithe egcavatiOn, he appears to have
crepe into the tunnel head foremost. While
in this position the top of the tunnel fell on
him, and he was completely buried under-
neath a considerable weight of sand. For-
tunately assistance was speedily at band,
and while some of the rescuers worked to
put aside the sand, one gentleman inserted
his hand and pushed it about till he reach-
ed the boys mouth, and in this way un-
doubtedly prevented the little fellow from
being suffocated. During the rescuing
operations is crowd collected, and consider-
able excitemen t prevailed till it was known
that the boy was alive.
How Many is a Dozen?
The child is taught at school that a dozen
means twelve every time, but when the
child grows into a man be finds that a dozen
is a very elastic term. A baker's dozen is
thirteen, and so is a publisher's or a news-
agent's in many parts of the world. In some
sections a dozen of fish means tvventy.six,
and there are other anomalies of this kind.
But to find a dozen indicating anything froxn
two to fifty, it is necoeseary to go to the
earthenware trade. Here the size and
weight of articles decides how many melee,
dozen, and in jugs, bowls, plates, and so on
there are 'two, four, six, eight, or more to
the dozen. .A dozen composed of twelve
artieles is a very unuaual thing in the whole-
sale pottery trade, and as a result there are
few clerkships more difficule to hold than in
this line. I tried the work once and failed
ignominiously. To have to fincl the cost of
500 articles alt so much it doten, when that
dozen may mean anything, is a veky difficult
task until a man gets thoroughly used to it.
That is easy then, 1 have been told, though
I never got ueed to it sufficiently to know
of my own knowledge.—[St. Louis Globe.

A Gallant Old Gentleman.
The writer was the witness of an amusing
scene in an Islington (England) omnibus.
We were "full inside" and just on the
point of starting when a young lady arrived
woefully dtsappointed on finding the 'bus
full, as the night was a wretched one.
"Never trimd, my dear," says an old gen-
tleman near the door, putting down the
newspaper in which be was engrossed, "just
you cense and sit on my knee.'
This the young lady laughingly did.
The old gentleman made himself. very
agreeable to her, asking "whether she was
married" and wishing he were younger,
etc. At length the young lady signified her
intention of alighting at Goldington road.
"1 will see you safely home, my dear,"
says the old gen deman, gallantly. tsi live
at the corner."
"Surely you are not Mr. P.?" say6 the
young lady.
"Yes," answers he, greatly astonished at
her knowledge of his name. . •
" Oh, then, I'm your new 'housemaid I"
was the reply.
