THE HOUSEHOLD.
Disease In Pillows and r


A correspondent of medical s::.....-s.:d
DDS us take note of the fact that disease
and death lurk in the very pillows and
holsters on which we lay our heads at
night. 1t is easy to talk of down and
feathers, but as fact, if they were cut
open, these articles would be often
found to be more or less stuffed with the
most heterogeneous materials. Pillows,
holsters, and beds have been examined,
and found to contain portions of filthy,
coarse black serge, apparently parts of
soldiers coat sleeves. pieces Of dirty,
greasy silk dresses, old worsted braid
from the borders of womens gowns,
soiled linen rags and colored calico and
even nuts and walnut shells and pieces
OF crinoline wire. The bedding in this
case was bought new, we are assured, o
few years ago of an expensive and re-
spectacle npholstercr. Moreover, a wo-
man who was employed to do the un-
picking work for the trade informed the
lady of the household that the practice
of stuffing bedding with dirty rubbish
and rags was very general, and that few
beds Oh holsters contain only the mater
ials OF which they are supposed to con-

Hints to nousekeeners.

To CURE and heal running sore, APP
ply alum water twice q pay.
LET clothes that fade soak over night
IN one ounce of sugar of lead in o pail
of water.
CEILINGS that have been smoked with
kerosene lamp should be washed off
with soda water.
AN excellent furniture polish is of
equal parts of shellac varnish, linseed
oil, and spirits of wine.
For a scald or burn, apply Immediately
pulverized charcoal and oil. Lamp oil
will do, but linseed is better.
A SURE and safe way to remove grease
pots from 81 Tx is to rub the spot quickly
with brown paper The friction will
soon draw out the'grease.
A SIMPLE remedy for neuralgia is to
apply grated horseradish, prepared the
same rs for table use, to the temple
when the face or head is affected. OF to
the wrist when the pain is in the arm or
shoulder.
PApERED walls are cleaned by being
wiped down with flannel cloth tied
over broom or brush. Then cut off
thick piece OF stale bread and rub down
with this. Begin at the top and go
straight down.
For dyspepsia pour one quart of cold
water on two tablespoonfuls of unslaked
lime; let stand a few minutes, bottle and
cork, and when clear it is ready for use;
put three tablespoonfuls in a cup of
milk, and drink any time, usually be-
fore meals.
THICK brown paper should be laid
under carpets, If the patent thing is not
to be had. 1t saves wear and prevents
the inroads of moths, which however,
will seldom give trouble if salt is
sprinkled around the edges when the
carpet is laid.
THERE is scarcely an ache to which
children are subject so hard to bear and
so difficult to cure as earache. A remedy
which never fails is pinch of black
batting wet in sweat oil and inserted in
the ear. 1t will give Immediate relief.
A GOOD wash to prevent the hair from
falling out is made with one, ounce
powdered borax, half an ounce of pow
dered camphor, one quart of boiling
water. When cool, pour into q bottle
for use, and clean the head with it, ap-
plying with flannel or sponge once a
week.
THERE is nothing better for cut than
powdered rosin. Pound it until fine,
and put it in an empty, clean pepper
box with perforated top; then you can
easily sift it out on the cut, and put q
soft cloth around the injured member,
and wet it with cold water once III a
while. 1t will prevent inflammation and
soreness.
To CURE felon, fill tumbler with
equal parts of fine salt and ice; mix we'll.
Sink the finger in the center, and allow
it to remain until it is nearly frozen and
numb. then withdraw it, and when SEN
sation is restored renew the operation
four or five times, when it will be found
the disease is destroyed. This must be
done before pus is formed.
Ito MAKE sticking plaster, put two
spoonfuls of balsam of Peru to six of
isinglass. melted with very little water,
and strained. Mix these we'll together
in small stone jar over the fire. Pin
out some black Persian OF sarcenet on a
board. and dipping a brush into the nix
ture, pass it over the silk five or six
times; then hold it to the fire, but not
very near, and it will soon become black
and shining.

:,HE POULTRY YARD.
Preserving Eggs.

Our own Judgment is that unless you
have home market it will hardly pay
to pack eggs There are SO many South
ern eggs in the market during the WIN
ter. the difference in the price of fresh
eggs in summer and picked eggs III
winter is SO small that it hardly pays for
the trouble.
If YOU do not have to find sale for
your eggs upon the general market, or
have families or hotels that you supply
with fresh eggs the year round, it will
pay YOU to put down what eggs you wish
for your own use (cooking) during, the
winter, in order that you can sell all of
the winter lain ut good price.
If YOU nave to buy the eggs you pack,
get Of some one that will bring you fresh
ones.
Surprising that you are able to gather
the eggs from your "own vine and fig
tree. SO to speak, the simplest way we
know of is to take the eggs as gathered
from day to day, and rub them with lard
and place them on the small end III
layer of bran, in any box or other vessel
After a layer of eggs, put IN another
LAYER of bran, and SO on until you nave
down all you wish. Keep IN cool
place-if the cellar is dry that is good
place, We have kept eggs this way I'M
til late spring, perfectly good.

Time in Military Exercise, and All Over

American Pension Claimants.
london special dispatch.l
A tourist Just returned from o trip
through the continent reports the follow
ing as the result of his observations:
The martial example set by the young
German Emperor has caused oil the war
offices of Europe to take OH feverish
activity. More orders are issued, more
inspections held, more Investigations I'M
dertaken than ever before. Drilling
everywhere is incessant. Great bodies of
troops march out of fortified cities every
morning and spend the day in military ex-
ercises in the field. Never has such hard
work been done before. To the traveller
the continent has the aspect of fortified
camp. Wherever troops are stationed, and
they are everywhere, they are kept in mo-
tion from morning until night. All over
France the sound of the bugle is heard,
and the drillmaster is busy instructing re-
cruits. Large masses of troops are con-
tinually moving from point to point Cd
the frontiers. Changes are made to rail.
roads to increase their strategic advan.
tages. In the interior, troops are being
constantly exercised, stores inspected,
transportation tested, and experiments at
mobilization made. It may almost be
said that France is mobilized; she isready
for action and will not be taken by sur
prise again. The maneuvers now going
on in the Romagna have grown out of the
military spirit now prevailing throughout
Europe. There are $4,000 thoroughly
equipped and well-drilled troops going
through the movements of an active cam
paign under the eye of King Humbert,
who has formed regular military estab-
lishment at Forli. There the general staff
seriously plot operations on large scale,
and the army execute them from day to
day. Italy has witnessed no such scene
since Solferino.
Little Bulgaria, armed to the teeth,
has caught the infection, and under the
spirited lead of Prince Ferdinand, is
marching her little army to and fro, and
strengthening her Notifications and from
tier posts.
Austria. stimulated by Germany, is
gradually bringing her military forces up
to that degree of efficiency which is good
in the eyes of her German critics. Her
troops are continually on the move. Those
on the frontier are relieved by fresh
forces from the interior. The Hungarians,
with their usual impetuosity, cry for ac-
ton, and act as if they were preparing fol
immediate war. AT the same time from
all the Chancellories of the continent
contest he announcement: 'The peace of
Europe will be maintained.

KITCHEN.
Handy ARRANGEMENTS.

The kitchen table should be high
enough that no backaches or stopping
shoulders will result from work done
there. 1t should have drawer for
keeping the cooking knives, forks, and
spoons.
A second table is very convenient to
have when baking, on which to set bread
or pies to cool before putting away. 1t
the kitchen is small and space limited,
broad shelf, fastened against the wall,
arranged to let down like the leaf of
table. is convenience. 1t can then be
turned down, when not needed for use,
and the room it occupies taken for some
other purpose. We have recently seen
n suggestion for an ironing-board made
in the same manner. In this case, the
supports, of course, must be quite strong.
The best way of securing this is by leg
at each corner, hinged like those on the
folding tables often SEEN. There are
two advantages in using this style of
ironinp-table over the ordinary one.
First, q table for this purpose should be
six inches higher than for ordinary use.
Second, the surface is apt to be discol-
ored or blistered by the action of heat,
even if abundant covering is used. Any
carpenter can make either OF these
tables ut tritiing cost
A good light is Indispensable 10 tne
kitchen. Basement kitchens in the city
ara often dark. but in the country there
is no reason why they should not have
windows sufficient to we'll light the
room When a lamp is necessary. it is
best to have one or two brackets screwed
up at convenient points. These should
be provided with movable reflector be-
hind the lamp.
An abundant supply of utensils and
conveniences will greatly simplify and
expedite the labors of the kitchen, but
unless due care is taken in the observ-
ance of the adage, "A place for every
thing and everything in its place" dis
order and untidiness will be the result.
Above all things perfect cleanliness in
all things is necessary.

Judge Field turned to Marshal Franks and

The Marshal advanced toward Mrs. Terry.
She took no notice of him, but broke out with

arm, and in an instant Judge Terry arose and,
exclaiming that no living man should touch his
wife, struck Franks terrible blow on the neck

across the floor. Franks resained himself and
