Useful suggestions.

LEMONS form q very agreeable, cheap,
and satisfactory medicine to be taken as
a preventive of the ague, and withal
are better than nine-tenths of the ague
cures palmed off on the public. The
best substitute, if lemons are not to be
had, is citric acid, prepared as follows:
Dissolve fifteen grains in cup OF hot
coffee, and drink just before the usual
attack of chills.
A WASH for the teeth to whiten them
is often made with acids, which whitens
simply by destroying them. To keep
them thoroughly CLEAN is really to whiten
them. A good wash is made by dissolv-
ing two ounces of borax in three pints
of boiling water, and adding teaspoon
full of spirits of camphor when it is
nearly cold. This should be carefully
bottled and reduced one.half in tepid
water before using. 1t beauties the
teeth and arrests decay, aside from i'm
proving the gums.
A GOOD portable fence is made in
panels, consisting of four boards, six
inches wide and twelve feet long, nailed
to three 2 by joists, five feet long; the
outside ones should be nailed clear at
the ends of the boards. AS each length
is nailed, raised up, and, standing at the
end, bore an inch hole just under the
top board in each of the outside posts.
| When it is ready to set up, cut braces
four feet long and bore a hole in each
end. Raise two lengths at a time; put
one end of the brace between them up
even with the holes in the top, and fasten
them all together with wooden pin.
Then drive down peg, bore hole in
the top two or three inches above the
ground, and fasten the bottom of the
brace to it by means of pin. This
fastens it securely, and leaves it at the
same time perfectly temporary.
AN English writer gives the following
directions for cleaning clocks, which suit
all metal clocks, and the larger and
coarser they are the better: Dip II feather
into common paraffine oil, such as is
used for lamps, and touch up all the oily
places of the clock, especially axles and
holes; then let the clock stand for few
hours, give more paraffine, and touch oft
ener if you think it is better for it.
| Afterward strew strong washing powder
among the wheels, ETC., and plunge the
clock into strong solution of the same
in boiling. Let it lie therein until the
water gets cool enough to place your
hands in, when. with tooth brush rub
bed with soap, wash out the dirt from
the works. Atterward cleanse completely
from all trace of soap and powder in
plenty of warm water, and the operation
is complete, the clock not having to be
taken asunder at all. Many an old clock
could be cleaned by this method, which
if taken asunder, even by skilled hands
would never tick again, owing TO fresl
portions of the wheels being placed il
contact.

Origin Of the Prince Of Wales's Motto.

The words "Ich dien," forming the
motto affixed to the arms of the Prince
OF Wales, are German, and signify 81
serve" Tradition asserts that they
were similarly employed by John, King
of Bohemia, who was slain in the battle
of Cressy by the Black Prince in 1916.
The latter thereupon assumed the motto
as his own, to indicate that he served
under the King, his father, Edward III,
of England. The Welsh have also ira
dition that Edward l promised to pro-
vide Wales a prince "who could speak
no word of English )" and when his son,
Edward of Carnarvon was born he pre-.
sented him to them, saying in Welsh,
Eich dyn" Behold the many.

Hints for Home Use.

RATs.-A handful of fresh chloride of
lime sprinkled in rat holes will keep them
away for months.
JELLY-MoLDs should be washed with
the white of an egg to insure clean i'm
preston. Dipping in hot water spoils the
sharpness of outline.
To Cook COLD MEAT.-Put the meat
into chopping bowl, cut it fine, season
it with salt, pepper, and little onion ;
add half pint of drawn butter. Fill a
tin bread pan two thirds full; cover over
with mashed potato which has been
sailed and has milk in it lay bits of but

The meeting and torchliglt process
sion which were announced to take
place in the third ward last Saturday
evening were postponed until Sunday
evening. The affair was highly sue
cessful and passed off very pleasantly.
The greatest enthusiasm was mani
tested by the assembled people, dur

Messrs. Pierre Landry, Robt. Noel
and Louis Batter addressed the au-
dience briefly but with good effect,
and it was plainly manifested that
the third ward Republicans are solid
and enthusiastic for their party and
its candidates, from Hayes and Wheel
or, Packard and Antoine, down to
Justice of the Peace and ward Con-
stable. If any reliance is to be placed
upon professions and appearances,
the Republican vote of this ward will
be augmented by the ballots of many
who have heretofore, in opposition to
their own interests, trained under the
Democratic flag.

A difficulty occurred at Genazzini's
store, third ward, Sunday evening,
among some colored men whose names
We did not learn, which resulted in
one of them receiving a cut on the
hand from knife. Quite a crowd of
people were in the store and some
were excited by liquor. One colored
man who had been drinking freely
shouted repeatedly for Tilden and
Nichols. Another took exception to
this, and the men clinched, when the
Tildenite drew his knife and Inflicted
the cut. He was assaulted by a
number of the friends of the wounded
man, but Senator Landry appeared
upon the scene and quelled the dis
turbance, taking the imbiber of
I. Democratic whiskey under his pro-
lection.
