To REMOVE STAIN Peach and sweet

To REMOVE STAIN.-Peach and sweet
apple stains may be removed by pour
ing on them boiling hot water from
the tea-kettle; lemon juice will often
take out fruit stains; holding light
ed sulphur match under the stain is Of
ten effectual. All non-metallic stains
will disappear if the article is permit
ted to lie for one or two minutes in a
mixture of two teaspoonfulls of water
and one of muriatic acid, but careful
and repeated rinsing is necessary to
keep the acid from corroding the fab
ric. If acid has taken the color out Of
a garment, aqua amonia will neutra-
lize the acid, and a little chloroform
will restore the color. Mildew may be
removed by rubbing common yellow
soap on the article, then little salt
on the soap and little starch on that.
Rub all we'll together and put it in the
sunshine, or wet the linen, soap it and
apply salt and lemon juice to both
sides or mix soft soap with powdered
starch, half as much salt and the juice
of a lemon, and lay on with brush.
Let it lie on the grass day and night
till the stain is gone. l,l

REMEDY For NIGHTMARE.--Slight
arrangement of the digestive or other
functions is often sufficient to occasion
a temporary delirium in children, COM
mencing during sleep prolonged after
woking. The suffering is great and
the condition ali alarming one to par
ents and friends. The mental excite
ment is so intense as to resist impress
sions from without, to an extraordinary
degree. 1t is here that the associations
of smell can be used more effectively
than any others to break up the NOR
bid train A good whiffof cologne al
most always brings the little sufferer
back to its ordinary world; or a little
ammonia may be used. But an oder
which is agreeable is probably more
effective than one which is merely re-
pugnant. It is common observation
that mental associations are awakened
by oders more than by the impressions
Of any other sense. In case of night
mare the strong, familiar smell seems
to break up the train of abnormal men,
tai excitement.

Keep the Gate Shut.

An English farmer was one day at work
in his fields, when he saw party of hunts
men ridinggbout his farm. lie had one field
that he was especially anxious that they
should not ride over, as the crop was in
condition to be badly injured by the tramp
Of horses. SO he dispatched one of his work
men to this field, telling him to shut the
gate, and then keep watch over it, and on
no account to suffer it TO be opened. The
boy did as he was bidden but was scarcely
at his post before the hunters came up, per
empiorily ordering the gate to be opened.
This the boy refused TO do, stating the or
ders he had received, and his determination
not to disobey them. Threats and brhes
were offered alike in vain one after another
came forward as spokesman, but all with
the same result the boy remained immoya-
ble in the determination not to open the
gate. After while, one of noble presence
advanced and said in commanding tones ::
MY boy, do you know me Z | am the Duke
of Wellington, one not accustomed TO be
disobeyed and ! command you TO open
that gate, that | and my friends may pass
through"
The boy lifted his cap, and stood uncov-
cred before the man whom all England de
lighted to honor, and answered firmly
am sure the Duke of Wellington would not
wish me to disobey orders. must keep
this gate shut, nor suffer any one to pass but
with my masters express permission" 4"
Greatly pleased, the sturdy old warrior
ifed his own hat, aud said 81 honor the
man or boy that can reither be brihed nor
frightened into doing wrong With an
army of such soldiers, could conqner, not
only the French, but the world" And
handing the boy glittering sovereign, the
Duke put spurs TO his horse and galloped
away, while the boy ran off to his work,
do-l've kept out the Duke Of Wellington. &"

A Model Lawyer.

Squire johnson was a model lawyer,

office in great passion. "That Internal

"Then you owe him the five dollars 2"
"To be sure do : but he has gone and

:" / don't care for that what do you charge

Ten dollars and more if there is much

No sooner was the client gone than Squire
johnson stepped across to his neighbor
Smith, and offered TO pay the bill, on condi-
tion that the suit be Withdrawn. The shoe
maker gladly acceded-all he wanted was
his pay The lawyer retained the other five
for his fee, and as the case was not +" trouble
some' made no further demands upon his
client
Ten days after, Jones comes in to see how
his case is getting along.

Wasted Powers.

Among the numberless marvels at which
nobody marvels, few are more marvellous
than the recAlessness with which priceless
gifts, intellectual and moral are squandered
Often have gazed with wonder at the prod
igality displayed by nature in the cistus,
which unfolds hundreds or thousands of its
starry blossoms, morning after morning, to
shine in the light of the sun for an hour or
two, and then fall 10 the ground. But who
among the sons and daughters Of men,
gifted with thoughts which wander through
eternity, and with powers which have the
godlike privilege of working good and Civ
ing happiness, does not daily let
thousands of these thoughts drop to the
ground and rot Who does not continually
leave his powers to draggle in the mold Of
their own leaves The Imagination can
hardly conceive the nights of s.e''t''ess ,'nu
glory TO which mankind would be raised, If
all their thoughts and energies were to be
animated with living purpose But as in
forest Of oaks, among the millions OF
acorns that fall every autumn, there may
perhaps, be one in million that will grow
on into tree, somewhat in like manner
fares it with the thoughts and feelings OF
man. What, then, must be our confusion
when we see all these wasted thoughts and
feelings rise up in the judgment and beai
witness against us l-Juiius Hare.

The STYLE In Boston.

According to the Boston Transcript the
striped India shawls and their very popular
limitations are as thick in the streets of that
city as they are scarce in all the rest of the
world. Indeed, it is said that Boston has
sort of a monopoly of the striped shawl fash
ion. A lady informant says that one sees
hardly half dozen striped shawls in an at
ternoon's walk ON Broadway, while, on
Washington street the difficulty would be
to find half dozen ladies who had not
striped shawls. In Washington, during the
past winter, it was considered almost a
"sure thing that q lady arriving at one Of
the hotels in a striped shawl was a Boston
lady, and the rule was tested with success
by our informant in numberess instances.
The same lady, in attempting TO purchase
striped camel's hair shawl in London, was
told by the shopkeeper that her order would
have to wait at present, as the whole stock
and the whole production were demanded
by the Boston trade. There might be a
great deal more untastelul fashion than the
rage for striped shawls. The effect is rich,
elegant and striking, and in accordance with
the principles OF decorative art. But the
most " correct thing pals on the taste after
hundred thousand or so repetitions, and it
certainly is credit to the Independent and
original in dress TO q certain extent.
FAIrHFuLNEss and sincerity are the high
