Hints for the Housewife.

A Word on Carving.-Unless the carver
is a prince in the business, he will some
times cause the table linen in the neigh
borhood of his platter to be soiled from
bits of meat or spatterings of gravy.
70 keep his end of the table neat, al
ways spread a very large napkin or
damask towel under the meat platter.
1t may be removed at the end of the
course.
Table Nats.-Straw table mats may be
cleaned by washing them in washing
soda water. Lay them out in the sun,
and, when nearly dry, press them be-
tween cloths or paper.
4 Cheap Condenser.-Coffee pots, pat
ented and unpatented, now before the
public, are almost as numerous as churns
and washing machines, nine tenths of
which. 1 venture to say, are simply
worthless. All coffee pots that claim
any Improvement in making good coffee,
eliminate in the one principle of re-
tanning the aroma, or condensing prin-
ciple, during the process of teaching or
boiling. OF these various ways of pro-
ducing a good article have found none
so simple and good as in the use of the
oldfashloned coffee pot, which will Sc
cure all the aroma, or condensing prin-
ciple, necessary for the best coffee that
can be made, by simply placing cup
of cold milk or water on the top of the
coffee pot. II. n. L.

CURED IN the columns of the Paris Con-
stitutionneL, in connection with NJ. Theirs,
who was writing for the paper at the
time the mistake occurred. 1t was in
the days when Theirs was Prime Minis

years ago. Then, as now, M. Theirs was
very sensitive upon the subject of adj
verse votes of the Chambers, and was
always ready to resign his office at the
slightest provocation. One of these
emergencies occurred, and M. Theirs
sent in his resignation, but at an inter
view with the King, he was induced to
withdraw it. On the same day noted
burglar had been captured and brought
before the juge instruction, whom he
grossly insulted. The Constitutional
contained the following two items about
it: After his Majesty had informed
III. Theirs of his desire 70 keep him at
the head OF the Government, the Prime
Minister. deeply moved, replied to the
King, You rascally old fellow, l feel

burglar, Jenneuse, was captured yester-
day by the gendarmes. He was taken
in irons before the jugs d'osstraction. to
whom he mad the impudence to saw.

your expectations The closing para

been transposed.
