Are you a busy, worried woman, who
conies home at nighb with temples throbbing
and every muscle aching from fatigue? If
iso, you often eay to yourself, "1 am dead
tired and I haven't the ambition to dress or
even comb my hair for the evening." Then
you lounge about and go to bed about 9
o'clock with your head still aching and your
limbs just as tired as when you came in.
The next time you feel that way, just alip
off the waist of your gown, brush your hair
up on top of your head and bathe the back
of your neck with hot water. When the
pain is a little relieved wash your face with
the same reviver, and by the time this is
done you will feel like brushing your hair
and fixing up a bit, or we are very much
mistaken. The hot water cure is quite as
efficacious taken externally as internally.

daughter, Primmer klar-
rearet of Freesia Queen
Victoria appeared to be in
nom than crdinary spirits.
The festive event was cele-
brated at Osborne in the
custosnary way, via., lay a grand dinner
party given by Her Majesty. h these
recurring alliances between Royalties—
alliances which may have a wonderful in-
fluence upon the destiny of nations—Queen
Victoria takes a deep and unabated interest.
At dinner Her Majesty gave the toast in
these words : "1 wish to propose the
health of my dear grandchildren, Prince
and Princess Frederick Charles of Hesse,
with every wish for their happiness.'
"Hear, hear," shouted the Marquis of
Lorne and Prince Henry of Bat-
tenberg, and Prince Ernest of Hohen-
1 )he; then Lady Biddulph, Lady Cowell,
Madame Morrine Melte. Perrot and Miss
Ponsonby clinked one another' glasses
before they drank, and the glass held by
the Queen was touched by the glasses held
up by the Princess Lottise and Princess
Beatrice. Queen Victoria has manifested
more interest in the marriage of her grand
daughter Margaret than might be supposed
from the absence of the usual on dits about
the match. As a matter of fact, Her
Majesty took a large amount of trouble in
arranging the trousseau with her eldest
daughter, and much of the drapery was
marked by the Queen herself with the
assistance of Princess Beatrice. All, or
almost all, the linen was • sent from Eng-
land, and was bought in Belfest—a fact
which will no doubt annoy many Germans;
but as it was paid for by the British
Sovereign, it was only fitting that Eogland,
or as in this case, Ireland, should have
supplied it. The design with which the
linen Was stamped was a simple M under a
Hohenzollern crown.
VICTORIA'S WEDDING DAY FUNCTION.
On the 10th instant Her Britannic
Majesty celebrated the fifty third year of
lier marriage with the ever -lamented Albert
the very good. The occasion was not oae
of tribulation this year, but one of rejoic-
ing. The young people round the Palace,
Princess Trixy, Louise of Wales, the Oen-
naughts and the rest of them, are heartily
sick of the lamentation racket and gam-
nmned their august relative into letting
them have a carpet dance after dinner.
This State ball was quite a quiet and family
affair, but it was the first that has been
held for twenty -nye years, and much ex-
citement was engendered in consequence.
VILLA PALMIERI A BOUQUET OF FLOWERS.
Queen Victoria's tenmorary residence. the
Villa Palmieri'near Piesiole, Florence. is
quite ready for the reception of Her Maj-
esty, except the portable electric lamps,
which are being sent out from England.
The date of the departure of the Queen and
court for Florence will probably be Monday,
the 20th of March. Ihe grounds at Villa
Palmieri are being beautifully laid out with
flowera, so thattay, tbe time , Her Majesty
arrives' the surroundings will be in full
beauty. The royal villa gardens are noted
for floral displays, and, as Queen Victoria's
bed -room is to be on the ground floor.,
flowers of the sweeteat perfume have been
purposely planted just under the window.
Indeed millions of flowers have been planted
and sown all round, on and over the house
and terraces, so than when they are in
bloom, as they will be in six weeks, the
entire villa will present the appearance ole
gigantic bouquet.
HER MAJESTY PREFERS INDIA TO IRELAND.
Queen Victoria is a good traveller, but
verypartial as to the direction she takes.
During the fifty-five years of her reign she
has spent but a few days in her olosmlying
Emerald Isle ; while among other Monarchn
subjects she has treated herself to many a
month's "change of air" and recreation, by
the advice of obliging physicians. It has
been evident, though, that within the last
decade Her Majeety's fancy has been rather
taken by her Oriental possessions, her de-
voted Mohammedans and Hindoos, their
tributes in shawls, jewels and Eastern bric-
a-brac, the tongues that they speak, and
the intense loyalty breathed • by a
chosen few of their reprentatives
on approaching the Empress of India.
The Queen's pet idea still is "to see India"
before she dies, and although the British
Government will not hear of her under-
taking such a journey, Her Majesty is per-
petually harping upon ib, and hoyes by
perseverance to break down ,the 'paltry
objection," as she is pleased to term it.
Most people are of the opinion that the trip
would do the old lady a lot of good. She is
strong and hearty, and with the comfort
and ease with which she could travel, a
solemn jaunt through India to her would be
no more fatiguing than one of her periodical
flits to Balmoral. The heat is the only
question. Her Majesty likes cold, and no
artificial apparatus has yet been designed to
make India cool, no not even for its Em-
press' special behoof.
WALES GOES A " HOPPING.
London society is much distressed by the
fact that the Prince of Wales and his set
have resolved to reintroduce the hhpastep in
dancing. The present rapid style in 'waltz-
ing is entirely due to the influence of the
Prince of Wales. Some years ago the waltz
in London ball -rooms degenerated from a
glide into a crawl. The sieve waltz was all
the thing at every dance, private or sub-
scription. People who dashed round the
room were regarded as Philistines and
monstere. But suddenly His Royal High-
ness got the needle" over this very alow
and crawling style of dancing, and he
ordained that feet waltzing should once
more predominate. It has done so. To
waltz in London ball -rooms is to engage in
quite a race. Nobody crawls nowadays.
it is considered "rank" bad form to de 80.
The step, however, though quick, le ann.
venally popular. The idea of the old hop -
step taking its place is aa appalling to many
people as the threatened.crinoline revival.

CHARLES THE MARTYR'S DECORATION ran.
The anniversary day of the execution of
King Charles I., which was on January
30th, is always observed as a quiet day by
Queen Victoria and her family. Some
fanatics of late years have taken to decorat-
ing the statue of the beheaded monarch at
Charing Cross on the date of his death, after
the same method adopted by other cranks
who are votaries at the shrine of Beacons.
field and Gordon. There has always been
some doubt as to the actual spot on which
the scaffold was erected, but the account of
the execution as given in a paper published
5th 11 ebruary, 1648 9 upsets the suggestion
that the unfortunate monarch suffered on
the spot now occupied by Le Sour's statue,
oast in 1633, but not set up till 1674.
The Making of scissors.
Though no complexities are involved in
the making of sciasors, or much skill re-
quired, yet the process of manufacture is
very interesting. They are forged from
good bar steel heated to redness, each
blade being cut off with sufficient metal
to feral the shank, or that destined to
become the cutting part and bow, or that
which later on is fashioned into the hold-
ing portion. For the bow a small hole is
punched, and this is afterward expanded
to the required size by hammering it on
a conical anvil, after which both shank
and bow are filed •into a more perfect
shape and the hole bored in the middle
for the rivet. The °blades are next ground
and the handles made smooth and burn-
ished with oil and emery, after which the
pairs are fitted together and tested as to
'their easy working. They are not yet
finished, however. They have to undergo
hardening and tempering, and be again
adjusted, after which they are finally pat
together again and polished for the third
time. In comparing the edges of knives
and scissors it will be noticed, of course,
that the latter are not in any way so
sbarply ground as the former, and that, in
cutting, scissors crush and bruise more
than knives.—The Inventive Age.
A woman can make a home unhappy for

not be converted now by a less powerful
and lett persuasive appeal. The speech,
•indeed, was marvellous for a rnan of 84
years. But if he has shown that he can
etill bend the bow of 1.71yeses, his most un-
critical admirers will hardly refuse to con.
fess that he no longer aends the arrow
straight to the mark. The exclusion of the
Irish members frorn Weetminster, the
very corner -stone of Mr. Gladstone'
policy of 1886, has disappeared. The
most indulgent will fail to dis-
cern the faintest sign of finality
in the scheme and his omiseion of any
reference to the land question until .ques-
tioned on the subjeot, indicates plainly how
he has artificially restricted his view. The
ptoposed Upper Council is an exceedingly
doubtful protection for the minority. The
moot fertile source of (marvel will be the
financial proposals." The Times denounces
the retention of the Irish members at West-
minster, and ridicules the notion that they
can sit in two Parliaments simultaneously.
"Thio beautiful provision enables the Irish
to have absolute control of both
English and Irish legislation, unfettered by
the illusory veto that is proposed."
The Graphic says " The prospects of the
bill are not rosy. The measure bristlea
with difficulties. A controversy is likely to
rage over the veto power and the retention
of the Irish members at Westminster. The
latter proposal is undoubtedly the weakest
part of the bill."
The Chronicle says "Mr. Gladstone
achieved a feat unique in the life of any
legislator of ancient or modern time. The
retention of the Irish members is according
to our jadgment, one important feature that
makes the Horne Rule Bill acceptable to
both England and Ireland. /altogether the
present bill is a great improvement on the
bill of 1886, and those opposing it ought to
produce some alternative plan of theirown."
The Telegraph speaks of the eight of Mr.
Gladstone delivering his speech as a specta-
cle to which the world cannot supply a
parallel. " It was," says the Telegraph, 'a
truly wonderful exhibition of that form of
moral courage which shows itself in light-
hearted unconsciousness of difficulties.
Marvellous as a physician and intellectual
tour deform, it is not statesmanship, nor
does it bear the remotest resemblance to
anything deserving the name."
The Standard says: " Tbe measure is
impracticable and impossible. If passed it
would never work. The device of the re-
tention of the Irish raembersat Wemaninster
is such a palpable absurdity that Gladstone
himself could not attempb to treat it seri-
ously. The speech, however, was a persoral
triumThe ph."
ing Post says: "Tho measure
is more futile and fantastic than before sub-
mitted to a civilized assembly."
The Dublin Preentan's Journal says:
"Whilst open to improvement the Bill is
altogether a good water -tight measure."
The Irish Times says: "Seven years
have failed to teach Mr. Gladstone
respect 'either of the rights of the Irish
minority or of the facts of history. Ulster
says simply it will not have it."
The Dublin Express nye : " It is mostly
a mere repetition of the former bill. Where
it diffeis it 18 more complex . and impracti-
cable. • The suggested safeguards are most
illusory."

interview ;mid the bill was more democratic
and practicable than the bill of 1886, al -
•though he personally would prefer a single
chamber. He was satisfied Mr. Gladstone
would carry the 6111.
The Parnellites express hesitant approval
of the bill, though they are dissatisfied
with the proposal to retain the land under
Etiglish juruadiction for three years.
It is generally admitted the bill will be
allowed to pass the second reading with
little or no opposition, and that the real
fight will be reserved for the final stages.
Wm. °Brien, M. P. for Cork city, said
this morning in an interview regarding the
Hoare Rule Bill: " It seems to me the
main principles of the bill provide for a
better settlement of the Home Rule ques-
tion than the bill of 1886. Our chief reser-
vation is on the financial proposals. It
remains to be seen whether Mr. Gladstone's
surplus of half a million pounds is real.
Mr. Sexton, Mr. Dillon, Mr. Blake aud others
of our friends fear that the full extent of
Irish local charges have not been taken
into account. The proposed contribution
for the support of the police will involve a
formidable drain for the first few 3reare.
Irishmen will hold their opinions on sueh
Masters at present and do the threshing out
when the figures are fully examined and
understood. Nevertheletsss, the main lines
of the bill are a noble and sufficient settle-
ment of the national claims. We are able to
heartily recommend Irish acceptance of the
measure. It gives substantial control over
our domestic affairs. We should not be
justified in resenting the provisions giving
the minority adequate representation and
providing for a veto by the Crown and the
supremacy of the Imperial Parliament,
The second ehainber will doubtless he a con-
siderable body and the franchise of twenty
pounds will probably insure a majority of
the members of the coancil for the
Tory landowners, who are certain to com-
bine against any extravagant proposals on
the part of the popular chamber. Thia,
however, is not likely to be a stumbling
