Useful Hints for the Home Circle.

Catarrh, it is asserted, can be helped
if not cured, by shutting up CASTLE soap
scraped very fine.
The best permanent shade for glass
plant houses is linseed oil and sugar of
lead, in the proportion of about tea
spoonful of lead to quart of oil but
the exact trial must be governed by the
amount of shade required, which can
easily re proved by trying it upon pieces
of waste glass. First, wash the glass
thoroughly clean, and then on a dry,
clear morning, take the oil mixture, and
paint as thinly as possible over the glass
with an ordinary paint-brush. By dab
bing it gently with dry brush it will
impart to it the appearance of ground
glass. The shading will stand tor
season, and can be removed by washing
it with strong pearlash water.
The correct management of the nails
is to cut them of an oval shape, cor
responding with the shape of the fin
gers. Never allow them to grow too
long as it makes it difficult to keep them
clean nor too short, as it causes the
tips of the fingers to become fattened
and enlarged, and turn upward, which
gives the hand an awkward appearance.
The skin which grows in a semi-circle
on the top of the nail requires much
attention. as it is often drawn on with
it's growth, dragging the skin below the
nail so tight as to cause it to divide into
what are termed agnails. This is to be
prevented by separating the skin from
the nail by blunt half-circular instru-
ment. Many persons cut this pellicle,
or thin skin, which causes it to grow
very thick and uneven, and sometimes
damages the growth of the nail.
The following is one of the best ap-
plications we know of in cases of burns
or scalds, more especially where large
surface is denuded of the skin. Take
one dram of finely powdered alum. and
mix thoroughly with the whites of two
eggs and one teacup of fresh lard (;
spread on cloth and apply to the parts
burnt. It gives almost instant relief
from pain, and, by excluding the air,
prevents inhammatOry action. The APP.
plication should be changed at least
once day.
In Belgium and Holland linen is pre-
pared beautifully, because the washer
|
as q washing powder. One large ham,
full of borax is used to every ten gallons
of water, and the saving of soap is said
to be one half. For laces and cambrics
an extra quantity is used. Borax does
not injure the linen, and softens the
hardest water. A teaspoonful of boral
added to an ordinary sized kettle Of hard
water, in which it is allowed to boil, viii
effectually soften the water.
When you receive bouquet, sprln
kle it lightly with cold water, then put
it in a vessel containing some soap-sud'
which nourish the roots, and keep the
flowers as good as new. Take the bou
quet out of the suds every morning
and lay it sideways in fresh water, thu
stock entering first into the water; keel
it there minute or two, then take i
out, and sprinkle the flowers lightly b.
the hand with pure water. Replace tn,
flowers in the soap-suds, and they will
bloom freshly.

A DREADFUL sentence has been passed
at Yeddo on a woman who connived at
the murder of her husband, and married
his brother, the murderer, viz: that of
being torn to pieces by bullocks. The
man is to be crucified, and then tor
tured with spear wounds.
If you are going to have sneeze,
don't attempt to suppress it. A lady
in Westfeld, Mass, lately. awed by the
presence of company, tried to keep one
off, and the result was paralysis of
one side of her face, so jistorting her
features that her friends can scarcely
recognize her. At the last accounts she
was seeking medical advice.

STATISTICS show that of the thousands
who die annually large proportion are
destroyed, not by old age, or by the
natural exhaustion of vitality, but
through intemperance, or disregard,
either on the part of the sufferer or his
parents. of the simplest laws of nature.
Such being the case-and figures can
not naisreoresent .facts-the conclusion
is that were the causes of intemperance.
its kindred vices, and disregard of
natural laws, removed, the average
length of the human lifetime would be
extended proportionately. What agent
mot rapidly, hdrnatcsSty, and certainly
will eradicate these vices, or the tenden-
cy to them is the question which has
been as thoroughly and persistently
agitated as has the search for the
Philosophers stone. The discovery has
been made by DR.. Joseph Walker,
whose widely-known VINEGAR Buffers
are accomplishing wonders which the
old-fogy doctors never dreamed of.
Try them and Judge for yourself, as
thousands are doing all over the coun-
try. SO

some dark cluster of evergreen, and
clutch me with its ghostly hands.
We reached our rooms at last, and
boiling the door l threw myself on the
bed, half dead with terror.
Next morning we resolved not to say
anything about our adventure, lest we
should be laughed at but our nervous,
startled manner, and pale faces showed
that something had happened.
"Oh, Sarah !" whispered Gertie,
coming to me after breakfast, and,
speaking to me i'll an awe-struck voice,
said "she's gone.
"Who's gone," 1 asked.
"Miss Biglow no one has seen her
since last night; and We saw her
ghost"
Gertie shuddered and trembled vio-
lently.
We found it really so. Miss Biglow
had disappeared, and no one knew
where she had gone. We hunted high
and low, but found not the slightest
trace of her, and Gertie and came to
the conclusion that she had drowned
herself, and that we saw her spirit that
night on the banks of the lake.
Harry told Gertie that our hostess
knew where she had gone, and that
Miss Biglow left note explaining her
sudden departure, and blaming us for
the whole affair. OF course we knew
better, and to this day am convinced
that she drowned herself, and that We
saw her ghost.
What nonsense, Aunt Sarah. She
was probably looking for her false
teeth, or something else; and besides,
how could you tell that it was Miss
Biglow at all?"
II recognized her at once by the
little top-knot on the back of her head,
with the wisp of hair sticking out
"Oh, it wasn't ghost at all, Aunt
Sarah"
My dears, I knew you would laugh
at me, but have lived long enough to
know a ghost when / see it. hope, my
dears, that this may be warning to
you all not to improve your good looks
by wicked articles. Give me my knit
ting, Bessie, and ring for lights

WICKED JIM.
A TEMPERANCE RHAPSODY.

There maidens ancient and gaunt and grim,
And maidens of fairer face,
There were angular women, with optics dim,
And women with eyes ablaze;
There with soap-locks and sm'rous leer,
And men out at elbows and knees

And the drunkards reformed were these.l

OF wicked old sinner called Jim,
And they ranged themselves up in dolorous
And they sang him doiorous hymn:

You're topper terrific; you're under BAN

Their faces were long as the moral law
And their meter VAS longer still,
With tireess lungs and tireless jaw,
They sang with right good will:

Blu. there's hope for the sinner yet;
Reform and return TO a better way.
And a sweeter reward you IL GET
And the hardened sinner whose name was Jim,
The host of The Laden Vine,'
Was melted to tears by the warming hymn,
And he emptied the rosy wine
And the yellow rum and the pearly gin,
Rare Bourbon and Old Rye,
From cask and bottle and crowded bin
In the gutter lying by.
He closed the doors of his wicked ken,
He silenced his jeering laugh,
And donned a sober garb and then
Had taken his photograph,
Which be sold abroad, and the wickedest man "
Abundance Of money made,
And now he works on the moral plan
And is fully convinced it's paid.
He has upright views and store of pelf
And soberfy walks crack.

This is an irritation or inflammation of the

extending downward, produces hoarsepess,

DEMOCRATIC REJOlCINGs.

high just now. The contemplation
of Democratic octogenarian who

is not without its enjoyment even
to chagrined and defeated Repub-
lican how the old chaps come out
to sun themselves in these days!
How pleasantly they delude them
selves with the belief that they did
it Then there is another class Of
Democrats, whose joy finds express
sion in loud oaths and in frequent
potations of gin and beer. These
are mostly young men, with weak
intellects and red eyes, who go about
howling in the real old-tashioned
way for the Democrats" Truly
these are red-lettered days for them.
We want to congratulate these

the great danger they have feared
SO long is happily passed. No more
