She studied over the peablem trying to
make the work less irksome by adOPt-
ing means enabling her to do it niore
iiuickly, and also to Save her hands..
and not to come in contact so often
with the greasy iron ve.asels, She
made mops with long handles, and
hought her a h1f-dosen linen crash

the grease, and also purifies and
cleans quickly, taking about half the
usual time. The soap is made thus:
Disssolve three ouneee of borax in
two quarts of warm, water, add. two

and stir all together in a jar antil it is
melted. When cool it will form a jel-
A tablespoonful oi this will make
a strong lather in a gallon of water,
and will be gcod for cleaning any iron

in trying to overcome the dislike to
cooking and cleaning, and by making
the work attractive and easier saved

• RANGING CHINA.
Lf the china closet in your dining -
room ix too small to hold all your
treasures in crockery and glass try this
scheme, which is both useful and orna-
mental: At a distance from the floor of
three-quarters of the height of the wall
may be fastened small wooden brack-
ets, upside clown. To what would be
the top, but is now. the bottom,
of these brackets is screwed a shelf
of stained wood about five inches
wide. The shelf may run all the way
arouna the room, and holds the pieces
of thine which are not in constant use
Along the front of the upper side of
this ledge are nailed narrow strips to
prevent the fragiles from slipping off.
Plates, bowls, pitchers and other large
and showy articles will befoune to be
very effective at this height from the
floor. On the nyder side of the shelf
may be placed screw -hooks from wlaieh
are hung dainty cups, small cream-
ers and the like, If one approve of
this ceramic decoration, she will buy
cheap Japanese cups for this purpose,
if she has not enough crockery of her
own to carry out the idea as she would
wish. It is not necessary to have the
shelf run all the way around the wall.
It may be placed only between two
windows 'or over the matelpiece. In
any part of the room it will be found
convensent and effective.

TO STARCH SHIRTS.
After they have become "bone dry"
put the shirts, collars and cuffs
throogh a wheat starch made by pour-
ing to:acting hot water over a smooth
batter obtained by stirring wheat flour
and cold water together until it is the
consistency of thin cake batter, This
should be boiled slowly for two hours
,
and then strained through a cheese-
cloth. Add to eaoh quart of boiling
staroh a teaspoonful of white wax,
such as is especially prepared for laun-
dry use. The secret of a good sraooth
finish to stiff starched clothes is in
the xnethod of starching. This must
be carefully done. Spread a shirt
bosom) over a clean board, and with a
piece of thin cloth rub the starch in-
to the bosom with strong, firm strokes.
There should not be a wrinkle in the
linen after it is thoroughly wet and
starched, and all 'superfluous starch is
wiped off with a. cloth The wrist-
bands and neckbands are treated the
same way, and the shirt is again hung
out to dry. When it is thoroughly
dry—"bone dry" again—the shirt and
collars and cuffs are dipped for a
moment in boiling water and quickly
wrung through the wringer with the
rollers pressed as tightly together as
they can be turned. The pieces should
now be left to stand for at least two
hours before they are ironed.

1FIVE O'CLOCK TEA. PARALYSIS.
There is a nervous disease—the re-
sult of the five o'clock tea habit --
which afflicts many women. Said one
bright woman lately:—• .
"I never remember fbaishing a. sen-
tence which I have commenced at one
of these functions. Before I have a
chance to round it off I am interrupt-
ed, dragged away or confronted with
a new face to whom I am introduced.
• I begin again, to have the experience
duplicated again and again. I have
the same trouble with my cups of tea.
I pat them down half emptied to greet
some new arrival, to find them whiske
ed away, and each one' repeats the his-
tory of its predeceseor.
"I leave these 'bun worries' with a
trail of unfinished phrases and un -
drunk cups of tea behind me. I go
home in a thoroughly unkempt frame
of mind, with a tendency to leave off
everything I undertake and start some-
thing fresh. It is really a disease, a
sort of five o'clock tea paralysis. Just
listen at any of these receptions and
you will agree with me, The wonaen
talk in spasmodic staccato gasper. You
never get the point of a story or the
telling point of a biography. Every
one has her eyes on the door for the
mew a frival, who may prove more in-
teresting or more desirable than the
one' she is talking to.
" 'Pardon me' seems to be the excuse
for every form of conversation rude-
ness. I believe this form of neevoue-
ness is one of the many symptoms of
the national unrest or lack of poise of
which foreigners so bitterly com-
plain." '

VIA.BING MOST 0Ir SKIIVEKILX.
It is now known that in remov-
ing the butter fat by taking all ies
oreara, milk sustains praetieally no
practical loss of ita nutritive valile-
Even for puetieg on fat the loss 'of
the cream eau for most animals be
supplied in cheaper forms, not
perhaps quite as digestible ' as the
oream itself would have been, but
Predleicing quite satisfactory results.
The niAritiou in the skiramilk can-
not be so rapidly replaced. Hence
the value of the skinanailk and the
general desire to use as much of it
as passible for young animals,
Which require for growth just the
kind of nutrition that it furnishes.
Probably more ekiraroilk is fed to
"'Ives and to young pigs than to
any other animal. It has only one
drawback, it is hard to digest,
eepecially if fed alone and cold,
To dilute the milk, • and at the
same time combine it with carbon-
aceous nutrition, by adding grain
neelaileeteit, should. be the object of
theder.
For poultry, a milk curd, which
is produced by heating the milk,
and, when it becomes thick, press-
ing the surplus water out of it, is
thah " better than milk itself
Fowls will only eat a limited
amount of either skimmed or whole
milk, and it doee not have the
effect its oheraical ehara.oter would.
inaply in increasing egg production.
The feeding of milk to hens 80021
results usually in the milk bemen-
hag soiled, and in the end the flock
becomes subject to disease. Press
the curd dry and then mix with A
oatmeal cakes baked hard, and then
raede fine enough to be eaten, and
the effect on egg production will
very soon be felt after the new
-ration begins to be given. It is for
_young ohickees that this ration is
especially adapted, though • some
whole wheat should be fed with it,
as, howeveir hard. the pieces of oat-
meal cake, they are dissolved very
quickly when they get into the
fowl's gizzard, in contact with the
gastric juices, which are much
aminoiraneanis.owerfal in birds than in other
• • There axe, hosvever, many plaoes
where curd cheese has too profitable
• a deanand for human use to be
afforded, except most sparingly,
for hens and chickens. It is liked
by almost everybody, and the skim -
milk cord made into small rolls
bring a price that is greater than a
greet many farmers are able to sell
• whole mine for. We have known
farmers to try making euxd cheese out
of whole milk. But there was too
much at in it, and lacking the rennet
to hete fasten the fat with the oase-
111 of the fat is lost. Rubbing
the skimmilk curd cakes with cream,
and letting them absorb what they
will, helped to keep flies away and
produced a better ourd. The question:
Whet is the most profitable use of
skinamilk? is a most important one
in all dairies where butter is made.
If cheese is the product sold that
removes all the casein of the milk,
leaving the water, sugar and a small
portion of the butter fat, none of
which alone have much feeding
value. • But by • adding grain feed
to whey, hogs have been put into
excellent condition as porkers, though
so much sugar as the whey contains
lessens its value as a feed for breed-
ing animals. •
. GIVE THE BOY A now.
The farmer ehould certainly have
better judgment than the inexperienc-
ed boy of the budding mustache.
Which should thee: order affairs on
the farm"? This is not so easily an-
sivered as might appear on the surface.
Considering, simply as a money utak-
.
ing enterprise, an experienced brain at
the helm is certainly the proper thing.
What should we think of a pilot who
turns over the helm to an inexperienc-
ed boy? Or to a lawyer who gives
our ea,se no personal attention and. lets
his inexperienced boy plan for our de-
fence ? We hire an expert to fix up our
machinery, and he sends some one
who is not posted in the matter.
We kick. So when there is a differ-
ence of opinion between the farmer
and his • boy, the • fernier natural-
ly insists upon his own plans, for
he has tested them, has longer ex-
perience and must suffer if things
turns out wrong, for there are bills
to be met and, taking ill-advised
risks is wrong and adopting plans
which his judgerient disapproves,
looks foolish to him.
:For ell that'vve hold that the boy
5liou1a have his own way part of
the time. Raising boys is one pare
of it, Producing beef and bread
and butter is farm work, but the
reason of producing beef and bread
and butter is to produce brain and
brawn trona it. The boy is of
more consequence than all the
otlaer stook. As a colt needs train -
so doee ,the boy. Tying e colt
behind a wagon, is a poor .-76:hinytdo
train him. Tying a b
the Wheels in his father's head is a
poor way to 'the boy. Both
boy and colt need to understand
that there ate proper things to
observe and improper things to
keep clear of, but neither can be
educated without giving him the
use of his own head.. The boy's
judgment needs exercising in order
to develop it. Let him do some
things aS lie thinks best, even if
your feel positive you know a bet-
ter way, Th43 boy will learn in
this way, Alia better than you can
tench him by holding him in your
well worn rat And then again
the bey ratty beat you end improve

things ere not infrequent. Divide

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
An English 113eroltant Finds Out That Salt
Restored illtee, Hats, Cats and Dogs
• After tieing Abparently Drowned.
A young mechanic named 1VIa.nsfield
of London, England, quite by accident
recently hit upon a novel, simple de-
vice for restoring animation to appar-
ently drowned animals..
He was salting some winkles which
had boiled over night, and noticing
what he called a dead bluebottle in the
pot be thought to himself: •
"0! I'll put you in brine too."
Suiting the action to the word, he
buried the fly in salt thinking no more
about the thing.
TWO minutes later he was surprised to
see the bluebottle shake itself free
from the salt crawl a little distance,
and, Jaeeitating a moment as if to take
its bearings, spread. its wings andsoa.r
to a window pane with a new leaseof
life.
BEETLES, MOUSE, RAT AND CAT
• , REVIVE.
• An inquiring spirit now took posses-
sion of Mansfield, and. he proceeded to
investigate further. Re began with a
beetle. For two hours he kept it :sub-
merged in water. Then, life being ap-
parently extinct, he buried it in salt.
In less than two minutes the insect
crawled out as much alive as ever.
Several other beetles were experi-
mented upon with equally successful
results.
Next he tried a mouse, then a rat.
Both were restored to life and. free-
dom. •
Growing bolder and at the same time
more conlident, theyoung man decided
to consign his cat to the water tub for
two hours, when its lifeless form float-
ed on the water. The magic salt was
brought to bear upon A and to -day the
!domestic pet is as mach in evidence as
ever.
PET DOG EXPERIMENTED WITH.
• It wag when he experimented on his
, dog, a pup retriever of five months old,
that. klansfield's faith in his discovery
received: its first shock In this as in
the previous cases, he made) the time
limit two hours, but the thickness of
tee dog's coat, he thinks, retarded the
effective operation of the salt. When
after half an hour' there was 110 sign
of returning life Mansfield began to
grow anxious. Ralf an bout had suf-
ficed to bring around the oat.
• In his dilemma Manefield renewed
the salt, which by this time had ales
sorbed a considerable quantity of wa-
ter. Fifteen minutes later he had the
satisfaction of seeing his efforts crown-
ed with success. The pup quickly re-
covered itself, and, as of fearing a re-
newal of the experiment promptly ran
out of the room.
• Though Mansfield has every confid-
ence in his discovery, he is not prepar-
ed to risk experiment on •a human be-
ing, but thinks that doctors might do
so.

CAST
THE COSTLIEST WALL PAPER.
It Wu, Found in the Cabin of a Die
4:enraged Diner In South Africa.
"While in Johannesburg I saw a
saxnple of what was probably the most
valuable wall paper ever used in a
house," said an ex -official of the Gov-
ernment, who recently returned. from
idea of the beautiful, sed the stock cer-
fica.te in one of the richest mines of
the Transvaal. In the early days an
Engltshman who worked in one of the
first xnenee opened in the Barberton
district, took his pay partly in cash
but mostly in acrip or shares of the
company. For many years the naine
yielded little, and the company was un-
able to pay dividends. After a time
the Englishman got disgusted with
working the pick for these nicely en-
graved, but unmarketable, pieces of pa-
per, and left the place for another part
of the country, where he continued to

CENSUS OF INSECTS IS TAKEN.
.mn•161,
There Are Good, Dad and Indifferent, and
Comprise 300 FaintlIem.
An insect censua has just been tak-
en on pure scientific lines, with a view
to deterinine as far as it is possible
which insects are a boon and a bless-
ing to Mankind and whieh are the re-
verse.
Although the statistics quite upset
the old idea that all insects and the
lower animais were created solely for
man's benefit, yet it is conclusively
peeved that while some insects are
rightly termed " pests," there are oth-
exs that render us considerable serv-
ice, and fortunately for our crops and
vegetation the latter arein the ma-
jority.
According to the census insects are
to be classified as good, had and indif-
ferent; the good insects amount to 116
families, the bad. insects amount to 113
while the indifferent insects,
who could not for one reason or anote-
er satisfactorily answer all the ques-
tions on their census papers, and must,
therefore, for the present, be looked
upon as doubtful characters, reach a
total of seventy-two families.
No fewer than 112 families of the
beA or injurious insects feed upon cul-
tivated plants end crops, doing dam-
age to and devouring thousands of
pounds' worth of vegetable produce,
anneally gobbling up our spring cab-
bages and succulent young peas, etc.,
in • the most ruthless fashion, while
the one hundred and thirteenth family
is parasitic upon and causes much
harm to warm-blooded animals.
Of the good or beneficial insects, sev-
enty-nine families devote themselves to
the destruction of their wicked, vege-
table -devouring brethrere whioh they
aocomelish in a most eatisfactoey and
wholesale manner, while of the remain-
ing useful inseets, thirty-two famines
act as scavengers, clearing away with
great rapidity all sorts of decaying
vegetable and animal matter, two fam-
ilies aid. tas as pollensiers and three
form food for our eatable fishes.

• CHOOSING WEDDING GIFTS.
Fifty years ago a wedding gift was
unknown as a generally expected thing
•from friends and acqUaintances. A.
rich father might givea bride a house
but it was not called a wedding pres-
ent; it was setting up the young people
in life. If other gifts came they Were
few—a pin -cushion, a work -bag, a
prayer -book or Testament. But ac-
cording to the somewhat foolish mod-
ern custom, before the day of the wed-
ding -gifts has been that of the engagenlent—preSents ba the shape of flow-
ers or small souvenirs of more or less
cost. The bridal gift, hoivever, is one
itrir;orving much more thought, and ,
certainly much more expense. And; it
is always to be takee into aceount, The men who suceeed beet in pub

' For those in moderate eircuinstanees,
if the giver has money enough, it is.
usually not difficult to provide a
present that shall be useful and wel-
come • and valuable. And for those
with whoni we nave a sufficient in-
tim:Lacy our knowledge of their tastes
and our freedom in consulting the
again make the matter easy. Bu
when it becomes necessary to make a
bridal gift to those of Whose taste
we are uncertain, or to those who ar
so wealthy that they already have al-
most everything the heart can wis
who have sliver and gold and jewels
houses and lands, then the task be
comes inore involved, and really
good deat more interestieg. •
• To such persons a gift that simpl
shows the expenditure ofmoney is un
necessary and. unwise; and if you have
not a superfluity of money, and they
know it, it places you in a foolis
light. For a gift to such people th
world—that is, our corn.or of it—has t
be ransacked, and something has to b

but thought, care, and. • the qualitie

Such a present is worth more to th
builders of ths new home, the founde
of the new family, than any of t
costly things that • they • could b
themselves, and it not only stands f
that for which, in a way, gold has
purchasing power, for the long all
tion andpreparation, but for the eie
in which tlaere is a oertain touch if t
genius that evokes wonders from t
hidden and unforeseen.
But, after all, what do they eare f
