Household Hints.

In using cloves for pickles or preserve
the blossom end should be removed, as
this darkens the liquid with which it is
cooked.
A little bag Of mustard laid on the top
Of the pickle jar will prevent the vine

1t is great mistake to clean brass or,
ticles with acid, as they very soon become
dull after such treatment. Sweet oil and
putty powder, followed by.soap and wa

frightening brass and copper.
To cut glass jars, fill the jar with lard
oil to where you want to cut tho jar;
then heat an iron rod or bar to red heat
immerse it in the oil. The unequal OK
pansion will check the jar all round at
the surface of the oil, and you can lift
off the top part.

The Berlin B2crScn- Courier has ex-

ick the Great: One autumn day he was
reviewing the annual provincial man
cuvcrs, AM, as ill-luck would have it,
everything seemed to so wrong. Finally
one division Of the hussars made such a
bad blundcr that the king could no lon
ger control his wrath, but spurrcd his
horse, raised his cane in the air, and
gallopcd after the captain. The latter,
not being anxious to feel the weight of
the kings cane on his shoulders, also
spurrcd his horse, ard after long cha c
succeeded in escaping. Next day the
general called on the king, and among
other things announced his regret that
Capt, So and so had sent in his rc3igna-
ton; he did not know why, he said, but
the captain had told him something had
happened which made it impossible for
him to remain. 81 am sorry to lose
him." the general added; che is one Of

A cat is a GURUS animal. 1t has fore

A well-known Treasury official, who
docs considerable railroad travelling,
Gays he has made an amusing discovery,
which If properly carried out insurcs I'M
usual care and attention from employees
on parlor and sleeping cars The tourist
who has been initiated is provided with
the most comfortable scat in the dining
Cur, receives special care and attention
from tho walters, and is always sure to
have lower berth in the sleeper.
Should any of his fcllow-passcngcrs be-
come jealous ut the marked courtesy
shown their comradc, and inspired with
curiosity to know why the distinction is
made, they have only to look at the
heels on the shoes of the favored one,
and they will observe that there is q
small "nick" or notch there. Inspectors
or "spottcrs" of the palace car service
are constantly travelling over the rail-
roads to see that the passengers receive
proper attention. They do not intend
to have their connection with the COM
pany known to the railroad officials,
but frequently the latter "drop" to their
little game and stamp them so that they
will be known all along the road. The
porter in gathering up the boots and
shoes in his car cuts a "nclin in the
hind part of tho heel of the shoe be-
longing to the Inspector so that the
other portcrs will recognize him as soon
as they look at his shoes. The Treasury
official, in mysterious way, became
aware that nick in the heel of his shoe
would greatly facilitate his comfort and
pleasure in travelling. He tried the ex-
pertinent, and it worked to his entire
satisfaction. He found he was served
with the best provisions the buffet af-
fordcd, his shoes received the brightest
shine, and although he had been obliged
to purchase an upper berth, the conduc-
tor on the sleeper kindly paced a

that new system for tagging the "spot-
tiers" will be adopted in the railway SER

Remedies for the worm.

AS large share OF the fruit, with the
worm still within it, falls to the ground,
the picking up of these windfalls and
feeding, or otherwise destroying them,
or allowing them to be gathered by
swine, will naturally suggest itself as an
efficient method. Manufacturers of vine
gar find it profitable to pick up and press
all windfalls. They yield juice which
will make vinegar. The fact that ma
turc worms search for crcvices in the
trunk in which to spin and undergo
their transformations, has suggested pro-
viding them with artificial shelters for
this purpose. Pieces of old carpet, Or
other woclcn fabric, about five inches
wide, and long enough to 90 around the
trunk and lap are fastened with a stout
tack. These bands should be applied
the last week in June, and examined the
first week in July, and every ten days
thereafter. Any worms Or cocoons that
may be found under them may be killed
by running the bands through a clothes
wringcr, or by crushing them other
wise.
Within few years the Western or
chardists have treated the apple-worm
upon the principle of "nipping in the
bud" As soon as the young fruit is set,
the tree is sprayed with a mixture of Paris
green and watcr--onc pound of the poison
to fifty gallons OF water. This is thrown
into the tree by means Of a spraying or
sprinkling engine, in the hope that a
drop of the poisoned water will lodge in
the eyes of the young apples. The newly
Matched app'c-worm, in eating its way
into the interior of the young apple,
will be so effectively poisoned, that it
must give up its task. Should the small
amount of Paris green remain upon the
fruit, it would be too minute to be harm
full; but the subsequent rains thoroughly
wash it away, so that there can be no.
danger in using the poison in this man
ncr. The chief remedies used in Eng
land a'c barriers, to prevent the worms
from ascending the tree to spin. Heavy
paper is fastened around the trunks and
smeared with tar; this and other means
are employed as prcvcntativcs. -Ameri-

Paul Cinquevalli's best fcats arc ex-
actly in line with this reform or Robert
IIoudin's. Instead of juggling with the
three knives, which most performers
have used hitherto, he takes the knife
and fork of commerce and the common
or garden potato, and he juggles with
these. The fcats Paul Cinqucvalli
accompishcs with the knife, fork and
potato are as novel as they are cxtraor
binary. lie losses the three in the air
from hand to hand, the potato on the
prOngs of the fork and the knife per.
pcndicular on its point in the potato
Again he throws knife, fork and potato
in the air, cutting the potato in two by
swift cut of the knife and catching the
halves, one on the fork in the left hand
and the other on the point Of the knife
in the right. This is the very triumph
of the skilful use of common things,
which is the essential principle of the
new jugglcry. Equally extraordinary is
Paul Cinqucvalli's juggling with can.
non ball, II china plate and an egg, after
which he first throws the egg fifteen feet
in the air, catching it on the plate with
out breaking tho egg, and then he throws
the cannon ball in the air, catching it on
the plate without breaking the plate.
These marvellous fcats are all done with
out strain or effort and with the utmost
ease and certainty. And with the same
calmness does he accomplish what is per-
haps his most astonishing effect -
although it is not as novel or snowy as
those we have already mentioned. This
is the Juggling with cannon ball,
transparent glass bottle and little bit
of paper torn off and rolled up in sight
of the spectator. The enormous dis
parity of weight, size and shape existing
between these three objects makes the
throwing of them from hand to hand
with uncrring certainty a most difficult
task. Saturday Rccicp.

Harvesting Onions,

When the tops of onions begin to get
yellow and faEi down it is time the bulbs
are harvested. They should not be left
in the ground much longer than this, as
they Mc liable to commence a second
growth, which very much Injuries the
keeping quality. They may be pulled
with wooden rake or light digging
fork. Some growers let them lie on the
ground after pulling two or three weeks
to dry; Others put them in small piles
after three or four days to sweat, leaving
them thus two or three weeks, after
which they arc again spread for day or
two and then stored. The bulbs may be
put'into barrels or spread upon the floor
of a loft or storcroom. If on q tight
floor, they should not be piled more than
foot deep, though they may be safely
piled three or four feet deep in bins hav-
ing Slated bottoms If kept over winter
they should be protected from severe

Trees which are allowed to grow in
tall grass rarely have enough vigor to
produce good crops but feeble growth
and small, scabby and knotty fruit
usually accompany each other. An
orchard should, therefore, never stand in
a meadow, unless the cxhausting inflsi-
ence of carrying off the crops of hay is
met with copious annual applications of
barn manure spread evenly over the
whole surface. With pasture, grazcd
short with sheep, there will be less in
jury to the trees; and additional top
dressing may be employed to keep them
in good bearing condition. Peach trees
suffer most from neglect, or from stand
ing in thick grass, and cherry trees the
least, and next to these strong-growing
pear trees. A lawn or ornamental
grounds which arc kept closely shavcn
with the lawn mower, are nearly in the
same condition as a closely grazcd pas
turc, and cherry and pear trees may be
planted in suitable positions in such
grounds, and bear COOL crops, provided
the lawn receives the annual top-drcssing
of fine manure or compost usually given.
The owner will, of course, use his taste
and Judgment i'll setting fruit trees in his
ornamental grounds, and not make an
abrupt or incongruous mixture of fruit
and ornamental trees. The latter will
be placed nearer the dwelling, and in
the more conspicuous portions of the
grounds; the fruit trees in the rear, and
the ono pass into the other by natural
grOdation.- Country Gentleman.
