To Wash Lace.

Just at present, fashion DEGREES that
ladies shall wear profusion of lace;
and as this delicate material is easily
soiled, we recommend the following
method of restoring it to it's pristine
purity and smoothness. Fold the lace
two or three times, and tack it on piece
of clean white flannel. Wash it care
fully in warm water and with soap, not
rubbing, but dipping it up and down
in the water and patting it between your
hands. Change the water once. Then
dip it into very hot water, roll it up
flannel outside-and squeeze it as dry
as possible. Then remove the lacking
thread and dip the lace into cold water,
into which little pearl-starch has been
dissolved. Take it out and roll it up
in large cambria handkerchief, squeeze
it dry, and again fold it up in a dry
handkerchief. Let it remain for an
hour, then fold linen sheet four times,
spread upon it fine piece of linen OF
an old fine cambria handkerchief. Lay
your lace upon it, carefully smooth out
with your hand all folds or creases, and
gently pull each pattern into proper
shape then spread over it another fine
handkerchief, folded double, and iron
with hot iron. Remove the upper
cloth from the lace, but do not touch
the lace until it is perfectly dry. II
dries in it's impression on the cambria,
and perfectly retains the beauty of its
pattern. When quite dry, fold it in
tissue-paper, and it will look like new
| lace.

Small Expenditures,

Five cents each morning. A mere
trife. Thirty-fve cents per week. Not
much, yet it would buy coffee or sugar
for whole family-$18.25 a year. And
this amount invested in the savings
bank at the end of each year, and the
interest computed annually, would in
twelve years amount to more than
1910. Enough to buya good farm in the
west.
Five cents before each breakfast, din
ner and supper; you'd scarcely miss it,
yet it is fifteen cents day, $1.O5 per
week-enough to buy wife ora daugh-
ter dress-$54. 60 year. Enough to
buy small library of books. Invest
this as before, and in twenty years you
would have over $4,000. Quite enough
to buy good house and lot.
Ten cents morning hardly worth a
second thought; yet with it you can
buy paper of pins or aspool of thread.
Seventy cents per week it would buy
several yards of muslin. 1885, so
in one year. With it you could buy a
good suit of clothes. Deposit this
amount as before, and you would have
81 $40 in twenty years quite a snug
little fortune.
Ten cents before each breakfast, din
ner, and supper-thirty cents day. 1t
would buy good bookfor the children.
$2.10 per week enough to pay for a
years subscription toagood newspaper.
$109.29 per year. With it you could
buy a good melodeon, on which your
wife or daughter couldplay sweet music
to pleasantly while the evening hours
away. And this amount invested as be-
fore, would, in forty years, produce the
desired amount of $12, 000.-Horal

A Hint to Travellers,

Even if slightly fabulous the follow
ing is good; A young eel inhabiting
the mouth of a river in India determined
to travel. Being a fresh-water eel, he
was somewhat restricted in his choice
of route, but he set out with a cheer
full heart and very little luggage. Be-
fore he had proceeded very far up
stream he found the current too strong
to be overcome without ruinous con-
sumption of Goals. He decided to an
Choir his tail where it then was, and
grOU up. For the first hundred miles
it was tolerably tedious work, but when
he had learned to tame his Impotence
he found this method of progress rather
pleasant than otherwise. But when he
began to be caught at widely separate
points by the fishermen of eight or ten
different nations he did not think it SC
fine. This fable teaches that when you
extend your residence you multiply
your experiences. A local eel can know
but little of angling.

. Very gratifying results have been OBJ
tanned by M. Chervin, physician of
Lyons, in treating the vicious habit of
stammering. A commission, appointed
to investigate the working of DR.. Cher
WINS system, put under his treatment
eight patients, varying in age from ten
to twenty nine years, all of whom STAN
mered in their speech to most painful
degree. Some of the patients had been
stammerers from early infancy, while
others owed the habit to nervous shock.
In ten days after they were first placed
under the care of M. Chervin they were
all able to speak without stammering,
and at the end of three weeks were dis
charged perfectly cured. The mode of
treatment is as follows: The patient is
taught, by means of large number of
exercises, to pronounce with distinct
ness vOwels, consonants, syllables, and
sentences. Great attention is paid to
the regulating of the act of inspiration.
A slow but normal inspiration is taken
at certain intervals, and this is succeed
ed by an even, continuous, and loud
expiration, during which pronunciation
is effected. Twenty days are devoted
to the treatment, the time being divided
into three periods: one of silence, tc
break up the old habit; one in which
the patient is taught to speak slowly
and deliberately {; and third, wherein
he acquires the practice of speaking
fuently, and without clipping his words,

BOLD RATS. Rats are learning the
evil ways of men: Generally they have
been accused of stealthily taking such
articles as would relieve the natural
pangs of hunger, which in the eye of hui
manity, if not of law, is some extenua-
ton of the crime. But evil communi-
cations corrupt good manners, +" and now
rats, like men, are beginning to steal
gold. A gentleman of Nashville, Tenn,
recently placed his watch under his pill
low before retiring at night. In the
morning it had disappeared. The SER
want had been into the room to make a
fire, and was questioned about the miss
ing article, buthe denied any knowledge
of it. The gentleman then instituted q
thorough search, and at length found
the watch forced halfway into q rat
hole. On pulling it out the four-footed
thief was found entangled in the golden
chain, hanging by the neck, and dead.

The Uses of Water.

Since Sir William Armstrong intro
duced his hydraulic machinery for rails
ing ore from deep mines, and for load
ing and unloading ships in dock, it has
been applied, as our readers are aware,
to many other purposes. By the quiet
pressure of water the largest of dock
gates arenow opened and closed with the
utmost ease newspapers are printed,
lifts are worked in hotels and factories,
and the scenes are shifted in theatres.
At the Royal Academy, when exhibit
tions are in preparation, truckloads of
pictures are raised from the basement
to the galleries by hydraulic lift of un-
usual size, fed by the ordinary water
supply. Water can be used to blow the
bellows of an organ, and in the employ
ment of water for this or any other in
termittent purpose there is the advan-
tage that it is always ready. Pull a
lever, or turn a tap, and it begins to
work. There is no lighting of a fire,
and waiting half an hour, as in the case
of steam. And now an ingenious me-
chanician at Paris has contrived way
to close and open shop-shutters by
means of the ordinary water supply.
The winch, and cog-wheels, and con-
Meeting apparatus at present employed,
are not required with twenty gallons
of water, at a sixty-feet pressure, more
than twenty square yards of iron shut,
tiers can be raised or lowered merely by
turning cap inside the shop. The wa
ter-tubes, and indeed all the apparatus,
are inside the shop, which renders il
easy to guard against effects of frost
while failure of water could be prevent
ed by storing a days supply in els
tern. Chdn1berS'S Journal.
