Household Hints.

To give glass a greater brilliancy, wash
with a damp sponge dipped in spirits.
PAINT splashed upon window glass can
be easily removed by a strong solution OF
soda.
Ii your coal fire is low, throw on table
spoonful of salt, and it will help it very
much.
A FLANNEL cloth dipped in warm soap
suds, then into whiting, and applied to
paint, will instantly remove all grease.
If you find that kerosene just purchased
can be made to burn in a saucer by igniting
with a match, throw it away at once. DON'T
attempt to use it for house lamps.
SCOT falling on the carpet from chimneys,
or from carelessly handled stove pipes, if
covered thickly with salt, can be brushed
up without damage to the carpet.
To clean oilcloths, wash always with warm
milk Once in six months scrub with hot
soapsuds, dry thoroughly and apply a coat
of varnish They will last as long again.
INSERT the stem of cut flowers in water
in which % grains of sal ammonia to the
quart has been dissolved, and they may be
preserved from two to three weeks during
the winter
THE best thing for cleaning tinware is
common soda Dampen cloth and dip in
soda, and rub the ware brIskly, after which
wipe dry. Any blackened or dirty ware
can be made to look as well as new.
MAKE glue in small quantities. Newly
made glue holds much stronger than that
which has been remelted. Apply the glue
as hot az the nature of the work will admit,
heating the pieces to be joined, if this can
done without injury.
HERE is an item for housekeepers The
Scientific American asserts that a little
soap lather mixed with the starch will pre-
vent the flatiron from sticking on the linen,
and give the gloss so conspicuously absent
in the home-laundry article. Easily tried.

How to Deal with Rats.

A writer in the Scientific American says
we clean our premises of these detestable
vermin by making whitewash yellow with
copperas, and covering the stones and rafters
in the cellar with it. I'm every crevice in
which rat may tread we put the crystals
of the copperas, and scatter the same in the
corners of the floor. The result was a per-
feet stampede of rats and miQe. Since that
time not football of either rats or mice has
been heard about the house. Every spring
a coat of the yellow wash is given the cellar,
as a purifier, as a rat exterminator, and no
typhoid dystentery or fever attacks the
family. Many persons deliberately attract
all the rats in the neighborhood by leaving
fruits and vegetable uncovered in the cellar,
and sometimes even the soap is left open for
their regalement. Cover up everything
eatable in the cellar and pantry, and you
will soon have them out. These precau-
lions, Joined to the service of good cat,
will prove as good rat-exterminator as the
chemist can provide. We never allow rats
to be poisoned in our dwelling, they are SO
liable to die between the walls and produce
much ANNOYANCE.

Eat Onions.

Few people dream of the many virtues
of onions, and those few are enthusiastic for
the beneficent buib and believe it a panacea
for every i'll. Lung and liver complaints
are certainly benefited, often cured by a
free consumption of onions, either cooked
or raw. Colds yield to them like magic.
Don't be afraid of them-especially if you
are married. Taken at night all offense
viii be wanting by morning, and the good
effects will amply compensate for the trifing
annoyance, Taken regularly they greatly
promote the health of the lungs and the
digestive organs. An extract made by
boiling down the juice of onions to a soup,
and taken as medicine, answers the pur-
pose very well, but fried, roasted, or boiled
onions are better. Onions are very cheap
medicine, within every body's reach, and
they are not by any means as chad to take
as the costly nostrums a neglect of their
use will Observation-Disclosures Demo-

More Capital Needed.

Labor is the sole source of wealth. Money
commands labor. Those crops which require
the most labor are the most profitable. La
Dor rightly directed pays profit to the one
who directs it. The brain of the one is paid
as we'll as the Drawn of the other. With
higher fertilizing and better culture our
crops could be doubled; but to secure this
we must have the money to procure the fer
tilizers and pay the laborers until the crop
is sold. Why should not farmers be able
