THAT TRAMP"
How He Won Her Heart and Car

"Why, Ella, child, what have you been
doing" exclaimed Mrs. Winters, raising
her hands and eyebrows in mild surprise,
as slight, blue-eyed girl entered the
breakfast-room with a huge armful of
flowers. Great crimson roses mingled
their dark loneliness with pure white buds,
and rich velvet pansies lay half hidden in
tangle of heliotrope and smilax.
"These are for Willie, mamma" replied
her daughter, as she laid her precious bur-
den on table and, picking out yellow
rosebud, which well deserved its name,
"gold of ophir," pinned it lovingly on her
mothers bosom-an act which immediately
disarmed her of all anger, Elias occa-
sional depredations among the flowers be-
ing cause of serious disquiet to the good
old lady.
Mrs. Winters had been a widow for
many years, her husband-a California
pioneer - having, in mining parlance,
"passed in his checks" leaving her in
comfortable circumstances. Mother and
daughter lived in quiet seclusiOn, seldom
appearing in society, and Ella at eigh-
teen, was as sweet and nLJtent as the
flowers, which, verify seemed kith and kin
of her own.
They had few relatives Mrs. Winters
sometimes spoke of a cousin who lived
away uP in the mining districts, whose
family she ha1 never seen, and Ella was
secretly in love with a handsome, bold face
which looked at her saucily from an old
daguerreotype case upon the mantlepiece,
whose laughing mouth she had often fur
lively kissed, and wondered if she would

HEAT AND COLD.
Their Value as Healing Agents for Various
Affections.

Their Value as Healing Agents for Various
Affections.
The use of heat and cold in some form
for'the relief of disease is almost uni
versal and very ancient Still, there is
a surprising difference of opinion as to
which should be used in given case,
though professional opinion is becoming
more uniform with the advance of
physical scisnce. The explanation of
the differ ice is the fact that many
diseases and injuries require heat at one
stage and cold at another. In the
earlier stage of Inflammation, it is de-
sirable to reduce the heat. in the later,
the application of heat hastens the alb
sorption of the products of inhamma-
tory changes. by stimulating the capil-
laries and lymphatics.
Typhoid fever is one of the best illus
trations of the good effect of cooling
(antipvretic) treatment by baths. In
over eight thousand cases so treated in
seventeen large hospitals, ninety-three

CLEANING LACES.
The Processes Used in Renewing Silks, Vel
vets and Other Costly Fabrics.

The Processes Used in Renewing Silks, Vel
vets and Other Costly Fabrics.
A careless waiter or an accident at
the dinner table may cause the appar-
ent ruin of laces, silks or velvets worth
large sums of money. If the lady tries
20 clean them herself, she makes mat
ters worse, and makes it impossible for
the professional cleaners to do any
thing with them afterward. These
cleaners have peculiar methods in rem
ovating these delicate fabrics, and
many of them they will not reveal, as
they are secrets of their trade.
THE treatment of fine laces," said a
cleaner, lis an expensive and trouble
some process. A thick blanket of soft
rags is sewed around a bottle. and on
this the lace is pinned. 1t is quite i'm
possible to rub lace, as it would tear it
to pieces. The bottle is then placed in
a bath of soapy warm water. After
soaking for twenty minutes it is boiled
for some time and then allowed to cool.
1t is dipped in several baths of clear
water, until all the soap seems to be re-
moved. The lace is then removed from
the bottle, and, after part of the
water is driven out by gentle pres
sure, it is hung up to dry.
After time it is lad on soft cloth
to dry still more When still slightly
damp it is placed on hair cushion
covered with flannel, and is fastened
there with lace pins. This is a work of
skill and patience. A pin is passed
through each loop and a twist is given
before the pin is fastened. Sometimes
the loop is drawn stra ght and some
times not, the operator seeking to
follow the original design of the lace.
When quite dry the lace is sponged
with a weak solution of gum arabic,
and, when dry again, it is almost as
| good as new.
The method of cleansing velvet is a
secret. 1t can be greatly freshened by
! steaming it over boiling water, care
being taken to expose the wrong side OF
the velvet to the steam: but this is
useful only where the damage is not
very great. can tell you only that

at is very common thing for
actresses to bring elaborate silk and
satin costumes to be renewed, and we
also have many fine ball dresses. We
do not take them apart but cleanse
them as they are. They are first dipped
in bath of naphtha, aud this removes
ink, champagne, and many other
stains. Then they 60 into bath OF
pure benzine, which takes out all the
grease. They are softly rubbed in
these baths. and any spots remaining
are treated with oXalic acid. They are
rinsed out in warm water and dried
over steam coils. To iron them would
harden the silk and make it shiny, so il
is run over steam rolls, or ironed be
tween tlannels. We have ironers whose
business is to iron dresses, and wher
they have finished dress it looks new

A GOOSE FARM.
A Virginia idea Which Has Proved to be
Profitable.

A Virginia idea Which Has Proved to be
Profitable.
There is goose ranch located on the
nearly 5000 acres, over which the
feathered occupants, nearly 5000, are
free to roam. The farm is devoted
exclusively to producing the raw ma
terals needed for the fine down quilts.
Several species of geese are bred. all of
them being, however, of American line
age. The largest specimens are the
swan-geese, and the plumage of all is
of snowy whiteness. The birds are
regularly fed with corn and other
grains. and are given the utmost free
dom consistent with the prevention of
straying and loss. Herders are EN-
ployed to keep watchful eye on them,
and sheds for shelter are provided in
case of Indictment or especially severe
weather, but the birds rarely use them.
About every six weeks the pluckng
takes place. Only the breast and por-
tons of the sides are touched, the
feathers of the back, the wings and the
tail being left intact. 1t requires nearly
one hundred average geese to furnish a
pound of down, though the smaller
feathers, which are also taken. weigh
much heavier These feathers, how
ever, form an entirely separate grade
from the valuable down. The average
life of a goose is said to be about forty
years. and they produce from six to ten
eggs per annum, a large proportion of
which are Matched. A bird Matched in
February is in condition for plucking
the following August, and so on there
after every six or eight weeks. The
feathers are packed in sacks, and sent
to the Philadelphia factory, where they
are trimmed. washed, steamed and
otherwise prepared for their ultimate
uses. Western RuraL.
