aucnt use of coils" b" bears grease"
" arcutusine," pomades," rosemary
washes" ETC., upon the hair, is practice
not to be commended. All of these oils
aud greasy pomades are manufactured
from lard oil and common lard. No
"bear's grease" is ever used If it could
be procured readily, it should not be APP
piled to the hair, as it is the most rank
and filthy Of all the animal fats. There
are many persons whose hair is naturally
very dry and crisp, and in most families
there is want of some innocent and
agreeable wash or dressing which may be
used moderately aud judiciously The
mixture which may be regarded as the
most agreeable, clearly and safe. is com.
posed of cologne spirit and pure castor oil.
The following is a good formula: Pure
fresh castor oil, . OF. cologne spirit, (95
per cent 16 OF. The oil is freely dis
solved in the spirit, and the solution is
clear and beautiful. 1t may be perfumcd
in any way to suit the fancy of the pur-
chaser.
A cheap and very good dressing is made
by dissolving four'ounces of perfectly pure
dense glycerinc in twelve ounces Of rose
water. Glyceriue evaporatcs only at high
temperatures. and therefore under its in.
fueuce the hair remains in a moist condi-
ton for long time. As class, the vege-
table oils are better for the hair than
aimal oils. They do not become rancid
and offensive so rapidly, and they are
subject to different and less objectonal
chemical changes. Olive oil and that
derived from the cocoanut have been
largely employed, but they are inferior in
every respect to that from the castor bean.

WATER. PROOF STARcH.-A patent has
been granted in France for the prepara-
tion of flush, or starch. for vegetable
tissues, yarns, etc., which is not soluble in
water, and which, therefore, when once
applied, will remain throughout several
successive washinss. The articles are
first properly starched, and then passed
through a bath of Chord Of zinc (about
60 degrees Fahr.), by means of which
such a change is produced in the fibre and
the starch, that the latter resists the action
of the water in the most thorough manner.
A bath Of three parts of sulphuric acid
aud one of water may, it is said, be used
instead of that Of chloride of zinc. The
liquid is to be placed in a trough, in which
a revolving barrel is immersed, almost to
its axis, aud above which is roller,
moved in an opposite direction by the
turning of the lower one. Between the
two the material to be impregnated is
passed, being moistened from below by the
bath, and receiving during its passage the
necessary pressure. If the material is
heavy, the barrel lies entirely in the bath,
and pair of rollers fixed above it are used
tt press out the superAuous liquid. The
articles are carried directly from the trough
into running water, from which they are
to be removed, pressed out and dried

NEW PROCESS FOR CURING HIDEs-
A process for culing green hides has
been invented during the past year bv
Mr.. Adolph Rock, of New Orleans, and
is now in successful operation in that
city. The article used is liquid, and
cures the hide in from one to two hours,
process which requires from 10 to 30
days by sailing, and it at the same time
does away with!all offensive smell in the
hides. TO cure hundred pounds of
hide, about gallon of liquor, worth say
sixty cents, is used, and in the process
the gelatin is fully coagulatcd ard pro-
tcctcd from destructive action when the
hide is lined. 1T is claimed that this
process retains in the hide everything
requisite to make merchantablc leather,
that they will keep any length of time
and in any climate without injury, and
have better affinity for tannic acid, thus
giving better gains
This is the first move ever made to
simplify and shorten the process OF cur
ing hides, and, if successful, will produce
n perfect revolution in the green hide
market; and, if the leather made is as
good as is claimed by tanners who have
used these hides, the process will be a
benefit to the tradc.-[Shoe and Leather

Ignorant of the effect of soda upon the
materials used in cooking. They seem
to have an idea that soda alone shas a
tendency to make anything rise. Hence
they use it Unfortunately in bread, his.
cult or cake. Years ago, I knew an old
lady who had this idea, and it was i'm
possible to convince her to the contrary.
Whenever she was afraid that the bread
would not be light enough, che would
add n quantity of saleratus. Her bread
was often as yellow as saffron and not fit
to eat.

upon chicken and meat pies plainly show

The color given to cakes and cookies by

is dull, smutty, heavy-looking yellow.
There are those who consider the free
use OF soda rs very beneficial to health.
They make a serious mistake. Soda is
sometimes used rs medicine to correct
acidity in The stomach. 1t is better at
such times to take the quantity pres

Remember Thy mother.

Lead thy mother tenderly
Down life's steep decline;
Once her arm was thy support,
Now she leans on thine.
See upon her loving face, ~
Those deep lines of care:
Think-it was her toll for thee
Left that record there.
Ne'er forget her tireless watch
Kept by day and night,
Taking from her step the grace,
From her eye the light.
Cherish well her faithful heart
Which through weary years,
Echoed with its sympathy
All thy smiles and tears.
Thank God for thy mothers love.
Guard the priceless boon;
For the bitter parting hour
Cometh all too soon.
When thy grateful tenderness
Loses power to save,
Earth will hold no dearer spot
Than thy mothers gravel
