Injured by an Ostrich Egg.

Dr. George Baur, assistant profess
sor at the Peabody Museum at Yale
was knocked senseless Saturday by
the explosion OF an ostrich egg.
Scientists at Yale say it was the most
remarkable explosion on record.
The eggs were shipped to Yale from
Cape Town November Is, 1885, for
experimental purposes and, owing to
the delay, one of them fermented,
generating a gas which caused an ex-
plosion which shook the building.
When Dir. Daur recovered conscious
ness it was found that his only injur-
les were flesh wounds.

- hen 10 Eat Fruit.

The real place of fruit is at the be-
ginning of feast, and not at the end.
A better plan is to make meal of
bread and ripe fruit The best meals
to make thus are breakfast, lunch, or
early tea. The bread should be
brown and dry and the fruit ripe and
raw. Dry brown bread cleans the
tongue and brings out the flavor of
the fruit. Butter on the bread
would give its own flavor, for even
the salt in the butter would destroy
the pure taste of the fruit Again,
the fruit should be raw, if possible,
as many delicious odors and delicate
favors are lost in the cooking Chi

MOT the Desired Effect.


Little Grace's mother was i'll, and
Grace was very naughty A detailed
account ofhis misdemeanors was given
to her mother, and her advice was
asked.
Bring her in to me, 2 she said,
"and ! will see what serious talk
on the subject will do"
The little ore was accordingly
brought into her mother, who vivid
~ portrayed to her the offences, Of
which she had been guilty, endeavor-
ing to put the case in such a way as
to impress the child deeply The ef-
feet was quite exhausting, but the
mother felt convinced, from the
child's earnest attention, that the de
sired effect had been produced.
"You may go now, DEAR" she said,
'mammas tired"
The little girl fingered
"What more do You want ?" asked
her mother, kissing the supposed lit
tie penitent gently.
Nothing, mamma she replied,
sweetly, "only--don't you think you
could tell me that nice story over

Household Suggestions.

Lard should go into tin.
Wash brown linen in hay tea, and
iron on the wrong side.
Soda is much nicer than ashes to
clean tea stained dishes
A good fux for soldering iron,
brass, ETC., is made by dissolving
chloride of zinc in alcohol.
To clean willow furniture use salt
and water apply with coarse bush
and dry thoroughly.
The mildew may be removed by
dipping the stained parts into butter
milk and putting them the sun.
To clean black cashmere, soak the
cloth in solution of supercarbonate
of soda aud water for tweny-
four hours. Hang up to dry and
iron damp.
Spirits of ammonia, diluted with
water, if applied with a sponge OF
flannel to discolored spots on the car
pet or garments will often restore
the color.
Put carnphor gum with your new
silverware, and it will never tarnish
as long as the gum is there Never
wash silver in soap-suds, as that gives
it white appearance.
A very thin coating of glycerine
applied to glass will prevent frost
forming on it IN coolest weather
This is specially interesting to engi
neers who are much annoyed in fros
ty or foggy weather by the forming
of a film on their instruments.

about 7.3c the engineer noticed man
walking on the track. The whistle being
blown the man stepped off the track and
the train went laundering along, but just as
it was near the man, he suddenly jumped
in front of the engine. Beiog caught by
the cowcatcher he was hurled to one side,
and after rolling over several times, lay
STILL The train was stopped and the man
was found to be insensible. with blood
trickling out of his nose and ears. He was
considerably bruised around the head. He
was carried on to Pasadena whence he was
removed to the County Hospital by the next
train. He revived sufficiently to give his
name as Atwood Norman, but he said one
time that his residence is In Los ANGELES
and then again Washington, d. G. He is
about thirty-seven years of age and looks
like lab Jring man. 1t is the opinion of
the County Physician that his ehances of
recovery are very slim, but there will be a
better chance to-day to make a positive
statement as to that. II is believed that
Norm ans skull is badly fractured. The en-
g.neer Of the freight train says that 1t was
q deliberate att empt at suicide on the part
of the man and that he threw himself pur.
posely in frone of the train.

Will the roaring granger of San Fer

the practice in days gone by, for the Tax
Collector to announce through the public
press tn Vt he would be at certain towns on
certain specified dates for the purpose OF
giving taxpayers an opportunity of paying
their taxes without incurring the expense
of visit to the county seat. This practice
is obsolete in this county. and the reason
therefor is not quite apparent 1t is still in
fashion in other counties, aud we have no
doubt that when Collector Hammond has
his attention called to the matter in this in
sinuating and delicate way, he will register
