the proptir launderingof fine table linen
was forme 1y considered one' of the accoin-
plishmeute of a gentlewoman, but few of clip
modern young ladles can make even the pre-
tense of indei•standilig it, 0,'he wringer,
while it Paves labor, ,doe it at the expense
of much of the "beauty of the table-olotb or
nankin that Basses through it. The wring-
ing out of thevery thin starch or rinsing;
water should' be done by hand, and as it >s
not at all necessary that starolted linen es-
pecially' should be wrong very dry, the
hands will de just aa well. Shake the
articles ho •ou til or fold them into manage-
able i gy it t b
able size and snap them as housekeepers
know so well stow to do, But little starch
should be used in sueli articles, just enouggl1
to give them a new feelingand tc take tkre
polish of th_Aron. It inot necessary to
use anystar h at all if the linen is ironed
ed
when uit damp and patiently gone over
until therm; 'lily city.
Always take table -cloths from the line
while still damp, repeating the shaking and
snapping process as long as the time and
strength will permit. ' If allowed to become
entirely dry an the line there will be wrink-
les in table linen that it will be difficult, if
not impossible to iron out. Care must be
taken as to how they are hung up in the
first place, Do not let them be cragged all
out of shape by hanging from a single clothes-
pin, or by being thrown over the clothes
post, making a projecting corner that it will
be next to impossible to get out without
wetting the cloth all over. When they have
been thoroughly shaken join tlieni evenly on
a straight, firm line. Take care that the
pins are clean and the line as well. They
should never bo allowed to whip or flap in a
very high wind. Fine linen is often injured
in this way. A quiet day and a bright
sun is the best time for doing up fine goods
of this sort. Never dry them indoors or by
the fire if it can be avoided- They cannot
smell as clean and have " the exquisite odor
of clean clothes " that a famous knight of
old preferred to ell other perftunes.
Fold the linen evenly and roll up in a
tight roll, wrapping large pieces in damp
towels so that they will not dry on the out-
side. Napkins should be similarly treated,
and each size and pattern rolled up in damp
towels in packages by themselves until
ready to iron. The irons should be heavy
and as hot as possible without clanger of
scorching. Iron table linen in single fold if
you wish to bring the pattern out handsome-
ly, and let there be several thicknesses of
flannel upon the ironing -board. A damp
towel may be laid over the portion of the
cloth that the operator will not immediately
reach. When the entire surface has been
ironed fold lengthwise and iron again with
the selvedge toward the operator. Go over
the entire length of that side, then fold with
the just -completed portion inside, and so
continue until the cloth is folded and done.
If still datiip hang in the sun or on a clothes-
horse until thoroughly dry. Napkins are to
be similarly done and should never have
their first ironing when folded together, but
be gone over sic rt ,-then folded as directed
in the table-olotbl It is not the province of
the laundress td make fancy folds in the
napkin. That is done, if at all, when put
on the table.
It must not be forgotten that starched
Iinen mildews in a few hours in warm
weather. Even if there is no discoloration
the starch will turn sour. For this there is
no remedy but another washing, as the odor
of the sour starch is very disagreeable.

Irish Stew.—Three pounds of lean mutton
cut into pieces not more than two inches
square. Stew the meat gently in enough
cold water to cover it until it is tender ; re-
move from the fire, strain off the gravy, and
set it in a cool place to allow the fat to rise

and return the gravy to the stove ; season it
to taste with a little chopped onion and
herbs, and put the meat into it together
with a dozen potatoes which have been par-
boiled 'ancl sliced cook fifteen Minutes and
serve very hot. By allowing the gravy to
cool and removing , the tallowy cake that
rises to the top the disagreeable oleagenous
taste will be avoided and a very different
dish will be evolved from that which usually
figures under the name of Irish stew.

At the recent meeting of the West Jersey
Presbytery a resolution was unanimously
passed, giving it as the opinion of the Pres-

such persons by censure or suspension from
church ordinance.
Engineer George Ballard of the Pennsyl-

City synagogue and said that he desired to
embrace the Jewish faith. He said that he
had never before professed any religious
faith, but that he thought the Hebrew re-

from hypocrisy. He was permitted to be-
come a member of the congregation.
Mrs. Daniel Hurley of Bangor, Die.. a few

was untied and two heavy padlocks put on

was poisoned and died. The same night
Truckman Hewes's cow was poisoned and
in the morning was found lying dead, with
her feet tied together. Cow owners in
Bangor are getting excited.
It is related that once when Henry Rus-
sell, whose singing of his own descriptive
songs " The Life Boat," " The Newfound-

many New Yorkers, was singing the latter
song in an English town, a man called out,
" Was the child saved, man ?" He was as-
sured that the child was saved, and at that
asked more earnestly, " Cans't thou give
nie a pup ?"
Speaking of the statement recently made
that there are thirty-four coffin factories in
the United'ta 1 coffins
tes turning out 50
daily, the American Furniture Gazette says
that this must be a mistake, or that a great
many coffins are imported. Chicago uses
forty coffins a day, and the other large cities
use as,many in proportion, to say nothing
of the smaller ones. If each factory turns
out 150 the statement may be nearer truth.
The fact that a son of a wealthy and well-
known citizen of Boston has decided to be-
come a horse doctor, to the horror of his
friends, reminds a writer in the Boston Post
that one of the sons of that most fastidious
gentleman, Edward Everett, became a
veterinary surgeon with his father's appro-
val, and has -his sign' on his father's house in
,Shinnef street; ana that one of the oldest
and best horse doctors;in Boston to -day is an
honored member of one of the best families
of the Hub.
A philanthropic New York firm has come
to the rescue of Rhode Islanders who want
their cocktails in the morning and are pro-
hibited. This firm puts up cocktails, either
of gin or whiskey, in little bottles, which
are packed in neat pasteboard cases, on
which are printed the name of the " tonic,"
and the words, " A good appetizer: Aids
digestion. Price 15 cents. Directions
Empty contents in a glass, add a little piece
of ice, stir, and drink." The New Yorkers
are said to be fairly coining money with this
tonic.
A stranger in Wheeling went into a sa-
loon and found a lot of young fellows playing
at a new gauge. A bit of paper was fasten-
ed to the wall, each player in turn Was -blind-
folded and turned about three tones, and
then tried to walk up and touch the paper.
The man who touched furthest from the
paper was to pay for the drinks. The
stranger joined the game, and, when he had
jabbed at the paper and pulled off the band-
age, found that the other players had fled.;;
He couldn't see the joke until later, when
he discovered that his pockets had been
picked.
The wild titan is coming to the front this

slew the giant, who was covered with long
brown hair. There also °Dines from Topeka,
Kansas, an account of the capture of a wild
fainily, consisting of a inan aucl woman and
two children. They also had notch hair on
their faces and bodies, and the account says
that on the top of the heads of the ratan and
woman wore evidences that they had been
scalped, The theory advanced is that they
were captured spiel scalped by, Indians; and
then escaped and became insane.

A Chapter on Girls.
It is a little difficult to describe the
" charming girl." She has not as yet pene-
trated the remote country places, except in
the faint reilections to be found in the col-
umns of the illustrated story papers. She
has succeeded the " type" girl, however, in
the cu rent literature of a somewhat better
i order, and is a decided relief from the over -
ingenuous, too -quickly loving, extra -spore-
taneous maiden who preceded her. The.
charminggirl usually knows a great deal.
A man feels in talking to her that she has
ideas; that she is quite out of the transi-
tional stage between an affectionate crea-
ture of impulses and a rational human be
ing. She is a companionable girl. She is
less impressionable than the type girl was.
As Mrs. Howe says, girls don't fall in love
an more. It would be impossible for the
truly charming girl to fall in love in the old-'
fashioned wa the waywhich lead the
Y,
trmiable-predecessor,of the Angelina,type to
set her affections off a villain or an idiot
arid cling to him through thick and thin '
with a fidelity and a rapture that looks very
silly to the charming 'girl. She knows her-
self better than ever a girl knew herself be-
fore. She is taught wisely and'well by her
careful mother, and no man can. surprise
her heart into surrender unless,hehas at'
least a few of the elements of genuine man-
liness and nobility, attractions of mind and
spirit as well as of face and manner. Of
course there is a sham charming.;girl who
doesen't fall in love because she has no heart
to lose, having wasted it all in admiration
of herself and her pretty gowns: This in-
consequent and effective little sham knows
enough, however, to imitate the ways of the
girl who is genuinely charming, and she
gets up a very clever and interesting coun-
terfeit oftentimes, and one which is extreme-
ly good to look at on a pleasant summer's
'aBy and by, when the ideal girl comes to
bless the world, there will, without doubt,
be a sweet and pretty sham of her also to
be found at her shore and mountain resorts,
whom the sham men then upon the earth!
will flirt with to their heart's content, while
the ideal men will bow at the shrine of the
ideal girl.

A Palace Tragedy.
M. Maspero added an incident of a pe-
culiarly horrible character to the story of the
unwrapping of the royal mnimnies of Deir-
el-Bahari. Among found the

body of a young man between 25 and 30
years of age, bearing neither name nor in-
scription of. any kind, which is by itself an
extraordinary circumstance. Instead of
having been einbalmed gut the usual way the
body had merely been dried by some skill-
ful process, without removing any of the in-
ternal organs, anclhacl been covered with a
thick layer of some mixture• at once fatty
and caustic. Above all; the attitude of the
corpse, its bootlegs, its feet turned` against
each other, its clenched hands, the expres-
sion of its face—all combined to indicate
that the unknown person had died in ex-
treme agony.
At first M. Maspero was tempted to sus
pert that he had come across a case of the
embaltmtlent of a• living man—a form of
murder which is not difficult to reconcile
with Egyptian usage. Medical men, how-
ever, wo had been consulted, were dispos-
ed rather,.to . recognize the symptoms of
poisoning. In any case, we aro brought face
to face with a palace ,tragedy,, for body

that it has induced unprincipled persons to adopt i
other names as near like it as possible. The propri-
eters of Briggs' Electric Oil have the name and style
of the Electric Oil registered both in Canada and the
United States, and no one can use it but themselves.
Others hearing of the success of Briggs' Electric Oil
have adopted other names similar, such as " Eolectrie
Oil," "Electron Oil," &c., and are striving to induce
the public to buy them instead of the genuine Eleotric

Briggs & Sons of their right to control the saute ; hut ''
