"THE milk is the white blood, . say
the Cinnamon, and on this ground they
abhor using milk and al the products Of
the dairy. In some stores of the largest
Chinese cities there is milk for sale. but
it is not the milk of beasts, and is used
for babes and old persons Those of the
European residents who insist upon get
ting milk for their coffee, commonly get
that Of swine. GA Frenchman," saws a
French magazine, "who lived in China
with his family, kept his own COW. His
servant, Chinaman, stole the milk in
order to sell it to Europeans. At last
his thefts were discovered, and he was
forced to drink the cows milk. That
was the most dreadful punishment to
which o Chinaman could be subjected.
and that servant never dared to steal the
milk afterward."

USEFUL HINTS.

FLIES. An exchange gives the fol-
lowing recipe for the preparation Of q
mixture to prevent flies from injuring
picture frames, glass, etc. Boil three
or four onions In pint Of water; then,
with gliding brush, go over your
glasses or frames, and the flies viii not
aight on the articles SO washed. This
may be used without apprehension as
it viii not do the least injury to the
frames.
To CLEANSE THE TEETH. "A good way
to cleanse the teeth is to dip the brush
IN water, rub it over genuine white Gas
tile soap, then dip in prepared chalk.
A lady says: g. have been compli-
mented upon the whiteness of my teeth,
which were, originally, anything but
White. have used the soap constantly
Tor two or three years, and the chalk
for the last year. There is no danger
OF scratching the teeth, as the chalk is
prepared, but with good stiff brush
and the soap it is as effectual as soap
and sand on foor.''
WASHING THE FAcE.-Few people
would think that there are several wrong
ways of washing the face, and but one
right. DR.. Wilson's directions are
Fill your basin about two-thirds full
with fresh water; dip your face in the
water, and then your hands. Soap the
hands well, and pass the soaped hands
with gentle friction over the whole face.
Having performed this part of the opera
ton thoroughly, dip the face in the
water a second time, and rinse it COM
p1etely. You may add very much to the
luxury Of the latter part of the operation
by having a second basin ready with
fresh water to perform a final rinse"
BoRAx.-Lady readers who have not
tested the magic properties Of borax
have been losing g great help and COM
fort. If once used, you will never be
without bottle on your toilet table. It
removes stains and dirt from the hands
better than soap, and at the same time
softens and smoothes the skin. It is
splendid for washing the hair, and will.
without injury, cleanse brushes and
combs In few moments. For washing
purposes it saves both soap and labor.
It will extract the dirt from articles of
delicate texture without rubbing, it being
only necessary to put the articles to soak
with solution of borax every night.
and need only to be rinsed in the morn
ing. Two tablespoonful Of pulyer1zed
: borax dissolved in quart of water. to
which water enough is added to cover
pair OF blankets, will cleanse them beau
tifully. It also saves great labor in
washing paint. It is said to drive away
ants and reaches, if sprinkled on the
shelves of safes and pantries.

How to Detect Unwholesome Tea.

A correspondent writes: Tea
drinkers nowadays VIII do we'll to apply
the following simple test to the tea ts
purchased OF their grocers. Turn out
the infused leaves, and, if they are
found a good brown color, with fair
substance, the tea viii be wholesome :
but. if the leaves are black and of . rot
ten texture, with an oily appearance,
the tea viii not be fit to drink. The
purer the tea, the more the distinc6yely
brown color of the leaf strikes the 81.
tention. I am sorry to say that the
mixing that is frequently adopted b7
the TRADE to reduce prices results in the
two Kinds of leaves being supplied to-
gether. Ineed hardly add that il is i'm
portant to see TINT the leaxes have the
serrated or saw-hke edges, without
