How TO preserve BoQUET.- When you
receive boquet, sprinkle it lightly with
fresh water then put in vessel containing
soap suds; this will nutrify the stem snd
keep the flowers as bright as new. Take the
boquet out of the water every morning and
Jay it sideways (the stock entering firot) into
clean water, keep it there q minute or two,
then take it out and sprinkle the flowers
lightly by the hand with water; replace it
in the soap suds, and it will bloom as fresh
as when gathered. The soap suds need
changing every three or four days. By obs
serving these rules boquet' may be kept
bright and beautiful for at least month, and
will last still longer in very passable state;
but attention to the fair creatures, as direct
cd above, must be observed, or all will per-
ish.

To WASH LAWN AND MUsLIN.-Delicato
lawn and muslin dresses are so frequently
spoiled by bad washing, the colors of the
fabrics yielding SO readilyI to the action Of
soap, that it is better to adopt a method of
cleaning the finest materials, and imparting
to them the appearance of newness. Take
two quarts of wheat bran, and boil it for half
an hour in soft water, Let it cool, then strain
it, and pour the strained liquor into the wa.
ter in which the dress is to be washed. Use
no soap. One rinsing alone is required, and
no starch, The bran water not only removes
the dirt and insures against change of color,
but gives the fabric pleasanter stiffness than
any preparation Of starch. If the folds are
drawn from the skirts and sleeves the dress
will iron better and will appear, when pre-
pared in this way, as fresh as new.

TEETH OF A HORSE.

At Eve years Of age the horse has forty
teeth-twenty-fou uolar or jaw teeth, twelve
incisor or front teeth, between the molars
and the tho incisors, but usually wanting iD
the mare.
At birth, only the two nppers or middle
incisors appear.
At one year old the incisors are all visible
on the milk set.
Before three years, the permanent nippers
have come through.
At four years old, the permanent dividers
next to the nippers are out.
At FIVE the mouth is perfect, the second
set of teeth having been completed.
At six the hollows under the nippers called
the mark, has disappeared from the nippers,
and diminished in the diViders.
At seven the mark has disappeared from
the divider, and the next teeth, or corners,
are leveled, though showing the MARI,
At eight the mark has gone from the cor
ners, and the horse is said to be aged.
After this time, indeed, good authorities
say after five years the age of horse can on
Iy be copjectured. But the teeth gradually
change their form, the incisors becoming
round, oval, and then triangular. Dealers
sometimes bishop the teeth of old horses, that
is, scoop them out to initiate the mark, but
this can be known by the absence of the white
edge of enamel which always surrounds the
real mark, by the shape of the teeth, and
other marks Of age about the animal-RuraI

its friends could wish Although this city is

solid cash returns into their own pockets, yet
there are enough public-spirited men here to
carry this matter through. 1t is an encourar.

scrptions are from the young men of the COM

old-fogyism under which our city has so long
labored. The books will be closed on the Goth

The case of the Tornado which is to be pre-
sented to the notice Of the Queen of Spain by
a British feet off Cadiz, is simply another CAL
ALBANIA" case. Last year British steamship,
called the Tornado, was seized off Madeira by
the Spanish war-frigate Genoa, on suspicion
of being in the service of the Spanish
American republics with which Spain is at
war The officers and crew Of the Tornado
are said to have been treated with extreme Sc
verify, having been put in irons and kept in
solitary confinement, with bad and scanty
food, for three weeks. The ship was taken in
to Cadiz. After delay of four months she
sent before prize court, though it is alleged
that nothing contraband of war was found on
board of her. Her owners claim the vessel
with heavy damages, and Lord Stanley backs
the claim, requiring also the surrender of the
crew. The Spanish Cabinet being deaf to the
persuasive voice of reason, the British Govern
ment has resorted to the last argument which
will probably be found satisfactory
