Hints To Young Housewives

Remove stains from cups an(
saucers by securing with fine Goa
ashes.
Cast iron stoves and ironware
should be heated gradually the first
time they are used.
A polished floor can be kept look
ing nice by wiping it over with a
cloth saturated with milk
Severe pains in the bowels and
stomach are often speedily relieved
by the application of bag of salt.
Bent whalebones can be restored
and used again by simply soaking
in water a few hours and then dry
ing them.
AS dentrifrice, salt and water
is very cleansing and also hardens
the gums. 1t will also prevent the
hair from falling out.
A good substitute for buttermilk
in cooking is thin batter made of
flour and tepid water, and allowed
to remain long enough to sour.
Not only should mattresses be
turned and aired at least three times
a week, but pillows and holsters
ought to be beaten, shaken and ex-
posed to the fresh air.
Make starch with soapy water and
you will find it pleasure to do up
your starched goods. It prevents
the iron from sticking and makes
glossy surface.
A bread-and-water poultice is made
by dipping a piece of bread, after
the crust has been removed, into
warm water. Let it out at once and
apply hot.
When potter's ware is boiled for
the purpose of hardening it, hand
full or two of bran should be thrown
into the water, and the glazing will
never be injured by acids OF salt.
When molasses is used in cooking
it is a great Improvement to boil and
skim it before using. The raw, rath
er unpleasant taste of the poor quail
tiles of molasses is much improved
by this process.
For mosquito or gnat bites an ex-
perienced traveller writes that he
uses a solution of alum water rs
strong az it can be made, adding
one-fourth of aromatic vinegar and
one-fifth of glycerine. Shake we'll
before using. 1t will instantly cure
the bite.
A weak solution of salt and water
is recommended by good physicians
as remedy for imperfect digestion,
and for a cold in the head it is a
complete cure snuffed up from the
hollow of the hand. We have known
severe chronic cases of catarrh en-
tirely cured by persistent use of
this simple remedy every night and
for several months, when
the best efforts of the best physi-
clans failed to do any good. 1t
should be used milk warm.

Surgeon Gen1 w. A. Hammond says
we can each prOlong our life if we learn
the secret thereof. WHAT IS THIS
SECRET?. If you soak a sponge in oil,
the sponge will have in it all the pecul-
iarities of the oil. So every organ in the
body contains all the peculiarities of the
blood. If the kidneys, the only blood
purifiers, do not clean the blood of the
waste of the system, then the various
organs will give out AMI you will have

TROUBLES, BOLLS, CARB UNCLES,

LES. The secret of good health then
lies in keeping the kidneys well. If you
don't, you can't cure any of the above
diseases. They may not suspect it, but
eight persons out of every ten have some
form of kidney arrangement. The only
scientific blood purifier is the famous
WARMERS SAFE CURE, which not
only cures kidney diseases, but the ma
jority of ailments which really come from

Our prayers should be for bles-
sings in general, for God knows
what is best for us.
1t is impossible for that man to
despair who remembers that his help
Ell is omnipotent.
A religious hope does not only
bear up the mind under her suffer-
ings, but makes her rejoice in them.
Only one judge is just, for only
one knoweth the hearts of men and
hearts are guilty OF gulltless.
And what is this good instinct
but the Spirit of God within you
seeking to will and to do it's own
good pleasure.
Duty performed is moral tonic;
if neglected, the moral tone and
strength are weakened, and the
spiritual health undermined.

ing mission, thence back to Austria
liza and Ceylon, where he met with
great success in 1870 he went to
India where he established another

Blunt Explains.

DUBLIN, Jan. 15.--Freeman's Jour.
nal says: Wilfrcd Blunt, being per-
soually prosecuted, and fearing he will
bo removed TO u worse prison, feels
bound to state the grounds upon
which he fears that Parnellite leaders
nre to be imprisoned. While staying
in country house in the south OF En-
gland in September last, he met Bal
fur, who made the statement that he
intended to imprison some Of the phy-
sIcally weakest OF Parnellites, adding
III shall be sorry for Dillon, ns he has
some good about him. He will have
six months, and ,s lie has bad health
he will die in prison." After the Mitch.
ellstown affair Blunt went to Ireland
and warned OBrien and Dillon. "Mr.
Balfour," says Mr.. Blunt, "becanie
aware OF this, to which attribute his
virulence in the Portumna trial. feel
unsafe in Balfour's han is unless pro-
tected by those responsible for the di-
rection of prison discipline, lest !
should incur the risk OF i'll treatment,
or perhaps fare worse"
In response to an inquiry Balfour
said: "The story is ridiculous lie. ]
do not believe Blunt ever made the
assertion attributed to him."

A Narrow Esoape.

On Friday night John Carroll was
driving from the city to his home,
nine miles to the northe eask, when he
was overcome by the cold, and had II
very narrow escape from pcrishing.
AS it was, his hands, nose and one
ear we're very badly frozen. He WAS
brought 10 the hospital on Sunday
and yesterday described his unpleaS
ant experience TO reporter, as fol
lows: He was driving a rather
frisky team, and had To keep tight
rein on them all the time, and, in
order to do this, had twisted thelines
around his hands. After following
the regular road for some distance,
he turned off on short cut, but lost
his way. He began 10 feel sleepy,
ana the last thing he could remem-
ber was pulling off one of his boots,
with tho intention OF warming his
foot. He supposes that the reins
twitched the glove of one Of his
ha nds, as II IL frozen much more
badly than the other. When the
team reached the house Carroll WIS
insensible, but remedies were
promptly administered and he WAS
restored. II his exposure had lasted
few minutes longer he would no

Prosperous Government.

SANTA FE, N. NJ, Jan l5--A special
says: The Herald publishes a state
ment OF the financial condition OF New
Mexico obtained from official sources,
showing that the stories circulated
with the evident intention of bearing
terro. credit, are without foundations.
In fact the last legislature was urged
by Governor Ross to fund outstanding
warrants, and bring the territory at
once to cash basis, but neglected to
do so, though it took away the tax
paying power OF warrants and provided
for the issue and sale Of bonds, and %
pay the current expenses for eight
months. The increase OF taxable val
uables for 1887 and the prompt pay
ment of taxes for that year improved
tho financial condition of New Mexico
so that within the present year all
warrants now out, and TO be issued
during the present year will be paid.
The bonded debt of the territory is
four hundred thousand dollars. All
expenses are covered by the rate of
taxati. n, about one and one-half per
cent. ImmiS ration is on the increase
and there is also a notable increase in
the investment o. eastern capital.
Territorial warrants are rapidly en-
hancing in value and are eagerly
sought by moneyci men. sss..ss. s...ass
