As tne best of furniture will groa
oM aneehtebby in apeearance, earful
housekeepers are eoustantly fighting
the aPeroech of age and dirt from their
bousehold goods in the way of chairs
ad tables.
All rurnitaxe, no matter how care-
ful iee may be, is likely in time to
assume te greasy appearance, whiole
sbould be removecl during the annual
bousecleauing. In the following arti-
cle we shall endeavor to give some hints
that, may be of assistance.
If furniture is very dirty it should
be washed in water end vinegar -equal
parts -using a flannel rag, and then,
after perfect drying, rubbed with a
elean flannel and a little linseed oil
before using any liquid or cream pol-
ish.
If tbe table bears the'telltale naerks
Left by a, hot Plate, rub it well with a
fleunel cloth and kerosene, finishing
off with& clean cloth slightly wet with
turpentine. ,Anotleer notable house-
wife restores the original polish, when
it has been removed by a warm. dish,
with linseed oil rubbed in with a piece
of linen, changing the linen until the
table is perfectly dry.
Unsightly linger marks disappear
from varnished furniture when rub-
bed with sweet ail, and from oiledwood
if kerosene is rubbed. im the spots.
A bruise should be treated with a
piece of brown paper foaled several
time and soaked in hat water,. Over
this hold a moderately warm iron un-
til all steaming ceases; if riettessery
repeat the process, remembering that
one application does not always earn
out a, success.
Always apoly aloohol sparingly up-
on lurniture, it at all, or itwill aestroy
the polish. an rubbing wind, follow the
grain, and do not rub against it any
more than yon would in people if wish-
ing a happy result.
All upliolstered furnieure must be
beaten with a cane and then wiped
with a, cheesecloth duster. A grease
spot on upholstery is removed with eq-
ual parts of ether and. chloroform. Cane
seated chairs require a vigorous scrub-
bing with soapsuds in which drop a
little ammonia; serub both sides of the
seat, rinse and dry in the air.
Among the many liquid and eream•
polishes given by excellexte authorities
her are a few that are simple and ef-
fectual, but remember the vigorous
rubbing is the main ingredient of ev-
ery recipe given:
Iwo parts of linseed oil, the stone
of alcohol and one part of turpentine;
to a quart. of this add an ounce, of the
spirits of ether. A polishing cream is
made of equal quantities of linseed oil,
turpentine and beeswax melted togeth-
er and used cold.
Yor very old furniture an especial
polish is recommendecl of half an ounce
of gum &rabic a,nd two ounces each
oI eopal gum and powdered shellac gum;
dissolve in a. quart of spirits of 'wine,
set, in a warm place and shake the bobo
tie well every twenty-four hours un-
til the gums are thoroughly dissolved;
strain through a woolen cloth and. rub
on with a soft piece of flannel. •
Equal parts of linseed oil, spirits of
wine, turpentine ancl vinegar form a
well -tried polish but some prefer &mix-
ture of one pint of linseed oil, two
ounces of alkanet root and a pinch of
rose pink; let it stand for twelve hours
then rub on the furniture and do not
polish it cif for an hour.
An excellent furniture varnish may
be made of eight ounees of white wax
m.elted and gradually mixed with one
pint a oil of turpentine. When wil-
IOW chairs lose their natural color et
is said that a solution of chlorine will
restore it. , •
IN THE DINING -ROOM.
liard-wood floors after laying aro
usually waxed carefully and polished,
or they are coated with shellac, and,
after drying, are varnished; either of
these methods render them quite im-
pervious to grease or water. Where,
for one reason or another, the hard-
woocl floor is unattainable, the existing
floor is planed smooth, the creeks and
joininge filled with putty and wood -
filling, and stained to harmonize with
the surrounding woodwork. Two or
three coats of stain and one of shellao
will be found to woucterfully improve
an almost hopeless floor.
The furniture for the dining -room
includes'a buffet or sideboard, as large
as may be, with a drawer. velvet or
cbamois lined, for the small table sil-
ver, with c.losets for the week's supply
a linen, and shelves or an enclosed
space for treasured bits of glass and
china; two large arm -chairs, with side
ehaixs to match them -six or more, ac-
cording to the size of the room and
the number in the family; a firm ex-
tension, table with as many extra
leaves as the room will permit; a side -
table to hold accessories during meal-
time; a screen to shoe ribbon and
Hashes matching the color a ofe,

PRESERVING NATURAL FLOWERS
Make very fine sand, wash it perfect-
ly clean, and when dry sift it through
a fine sieve into a pan. When the sand.
is deep.. enough to hold the flowers in
an upright position take some more
sifted. sand and carefully cover them.
A spoon is a good thing to take for
this, as it fills in every chink and icran-
ny without breaking or bending the
leaves. When the pan is lilted solidly,
leave the flowers to dry for several
days It is a gond pilan to warm the
sand in the °went before using it, as
the flowers will then dry more thor-
oughly. In taking the sand af, great
care must be taken not to break the
leaves, as they are now dry and brittle.
Pansies preserved in this 'way will keep
their shape and brilliancy of color all'
winter, and many other flowers (tan be

DOMESTIC RECIPES.
Pieplant Fritters. -Peel young, ten-
der pie -plant and out the stalks two
and a half inehes long. Make .a batter
of one cup of milk, one cup of flour, in
which you. have sifted a half teaspoon-
ful of baking powder and a pinch of
clan, and one egg and the white of
another. Beat the egg well, stir into
the milk, add the flour, then the beat -
white of the other egg, with a little
grated lemon peel. Dip each piece of
pie -plant in the batter andl fry in boil-
ing lard till a bright golden brown.
Dust with powdered sugar, and serve
with a liquid sauce.
Raised Doughnuts. -One egg; one
cake of compressed yeast; one cup of
sugar; one-half cup of butter; one pint
of new milk. Mix all together at night,
with flour sufficient to make the bat-
ter about the same as for bread sponge.
In the morning mix up, keeping the'
dough as soft as possible. Let rise till
light, roll lightly and cut in rings. Let
them rise again about 15 minutes in
awarm place; fry in hot lard. till done,
then sift powdered sugar over them.
Fried. Rice. -Now spring is here, and.
one has grown tired of the thingsi eat-

deoeying matter from which the milk
could absorb the odor, I would look te

had troublesays a writer, that arose
from such a floor, and I never knew
the cause. The bottom of the cellar was
pure, white saad, open which was plac-
ed a layer of gravel, then cement. I
noticed in skimming, the milk was not
in a healthy condition. I had every

in shallow .pans, Found the milk al)
right when fresh. Had entire cellar
Noor scrubbed every day. It was used
for milk and butter &lone. Still tbe
cream was not right. The walls and
ceiling were well wbitewashed, I felt
sure nothing lurked there, If 15 went
on, I knew it must spoil a good butter
trade. Thinking it raignt be the floor,
whieh hadlieen laid only a few months,

This repeated several times made the

WRY OTICTIAIC)S ARE FAILING.
Experienee is one of the most pot-
ent factors in our development. It
brings facts ana causes to our view
better than possibly anything else.
Tbie Point is Well illustrated in my
mini by an illustration of practical va-
lue. An orchard on my 'father's farm,
and not an old orchard either. says a
writer in Farmers' Advocate. seemed to
be. fallingand produced but little mer-
chantable fruit. There was something
wrong. This failure, or partial failure,
Was not due to insects or laok of care
in the usual sense. It never occurred
to us that perhape there was a lacking
fertility in the eon. At the same time,
eve \vele growing wheat, adding. man -
urs and even. eornmereial fertilizers to
get a maximum crop. We bed used
every method in the development of
the field crops. but perfectly neglected
the orchard. NOt intentionally Tither,
but because we thought that it lees not
necessary and that an orchard had an
easy time of it anyway. But soon. alter
I went to, college, I studied plant
growth., chemistry, etc. My eYes were
soon opened. 1 soon realized that the
depletion of tbe land by the fruit trees
is more sevious than by annual CrOtia.
for this feet: Plant foodare locked
up for many years in the. tvunks and
branches of the trees, while a large
pa rt, of the fertilizing elements in the
common crops is returned to the soil
each year. Beeides the fruit taken off
removes plant -food tbat is seldom if
ever returnea. - It has been estimated
that an acre of apples during the bear-
ing season will remove about forty-nine
pounds of nitrogen, thirty-eight pounds
of pliosphorie acid, and seventy-two
pounds of potash, the value of which
would be $12, at the average Priaes Paid
for fertilizing material furnishing
these ingredients on the market, is it
any \vender, then, that the orehards are
faUing ? Taking from the soil that
amount of plant food each year, it is
only natural that the time soon comes
when one gets but a partial' crop, in
ten yeaas the amount of plant food re-
moved. from the, soil will amount to
:020. Now, for the orchard land to
be kept in parfect, bearing dondition,
these fertilizing elements must be re-
turned in some form. We know the
value of clover, cow peas, vetches, crim-
son (stoner, etc., in adding xiitrogen to
the soil Frei t trees require humus.
Plow up tbe orchard and SOW clover
then keep the orchard clean and clear
of weeds and insects. 'Humus is aadecl,
and at the seine time an abundance of
nitrogen is supplied. to the soil, for the
use of the trees. It remains then only
,o use phosphoric acid and potasb.
which can be 'readily obtained in the
forro of acid phoephate and muriate of
potash; an average dose of these would.
be about 800 pounds of the former arid

the scions are accurately and firmly
set, press clean, damp soil carefully and
firmly with the hands, all around and
over the junction of the SOIOTIS with

never tie or wax my grating of, this

ial to the vine, as is the damp soil, and
much less liable to start decay. Finally
heap loose soil about the eel -on until only

DANGEROUS POST.
Its the EIghling Ton or a Big Battleship.
There are some men who will have
an interesting and exciting time in the
next naval battle. They are the fol-
lows who will, be perched. up in the
fighting tops, looking down upon the
hell of crashing steel and mangled
limbs below and doing their best to re-
preduce it on nee decks of the enemy.
The landsman would find an hour in
a fighting top a rather thrieling experi-
ence even in time of peace. After
crawling up a little iron ladder on the
inside of a steel shaft like e hollow
tree he would. emerge in a. huge drum
with the top off. Looking over the
side he would find himself suspended
at the heightof a church steeple, with
nothing visible beneath him to break
his fall. Re would bane the sensation
of hanging in the car of a lialloon. •
It would be a little dizzy even at chor in a friendly barbor. But send
the ship to sea, with every roll of her,

his mouth.
The fighting man in the fighting top,
intently training his machine gun on
any group of combatants he may see
exposed on the enemy's deeks, may not
be troubled by the landsman's qualms,
bui. even his seassned nerves cannot be
expected to ignore the meteoric shower
of p.ojectiles big and little, that hurtle

single one of the larger shells striking

down like a tree under the ax of the
woodman, and plunge the man in the
top a hunared feet to his death. In the
absence of such a catastrophe the top
itself must inevitably be riddled by the
smaller bolts, and, if it remain stand-
ing wben the battle Ls over, it is likely
to contain a crew of corpses.
