Free Newspaper Notices.
A resolution has been adopted by the
New Jersey Editorial Association to the
effect that hereafter all notices of exhibi.
tions, lectures, concerts, fairs, festivals,
pic mics, socials, dances, suppers and
other entertainments which have for their
object the raising of money, and also
cards of thanks, obituary articles and So
ciety resolutions, must be paid for to Sc
cure insertion. Few readers of careful
business habits will feel that anything
but true sense of justice and desire
for simply what is due, aud the securing
of what has been well earned, has prompt
ed this move, though it may be a new
thing in their experiences with their local
newspapers. Not few individuals re-
side in our m idst who do not hesitate to
ask for themselves or the institutions
they may represent the publication of
matters designed to benefit them flnan'
cially, very directly, when they would
raise their hands in establishment if a
bill was rendered for the work. They ask
the carrying to thousand homes free,
through paper, of matter they could
not transmit 10 single individual through
the mails without paying for. It would
seem to be quite time that some move
ment was made to throw OFF the imposi-
tions that custom has forced upon good
nature, and to have it understood that
while the dropping of ticket to fifth
rate entertainment may appease the man
ayers conscience, as adequate pay for a
two dollar notice and a Eve dollar review,
which is expected to laud all mistakes in-
to merits, it will not at the same time
pass current for bread - WarWick Adger-

To Preserve Cast Iron from Rust.

In La Samaine DIES CONSTRUCTORS
there is published recipe for pre-
serving cast iron from rust while Civ
ing it pleasing surface. The casting
is to be thoroughly cleaned, and
then washed in dilute acid. When dry
the surface is to be well rubbed with a
metallic brush or n file, and then
painted several coats with raw (crude p
petroleum, care being taken to let
each coat dry thoroughly before the
next is applied
When the last coat is dry it is TO be
we'll rubbed with n stiff hair brush,
and the result will be beautiful dull
polish that will resist high degree of
heat and will not be attacked by rust.
The polish may be indefinitely pre-
served and improved by the occasional
application of single coat of pc
troleum, followed by brushing, exactly
as in the ordinary course of black
leading. III there is any value in this
process it ought to supersede the OBJ
jectionable Berlin backing for stoves
of all kinds.

A Great Dry Goods Store.

The greatest dry goods establish
ment in the world is the Bon Marche,
in Paris. 1t is managed by woman
Madame Boucicault. A short time
since this house, which is more remark
able in its internal system than even in
its external size and complexity, had
an occasion exclusively for the sale of
white goods and garments. The one
days sale Melted 100000 francs, and
took 100 vans eight days to deliver.
The Bon Marche feeds its own en-
ployes, 5000, every day. It's kitchens
are wonder, and its staff of cooks
equal to those of several hotels. The
whole region is a miracle of Gle anliness
and order, and the most perfect sys-
tenn. A hundred men are employed
in washing dishes, and n second staff
exclusively in cleaning knives. The
food is of the best quality, and is cook
ed deliciously. The pots are huge
copper cauldrons, the baking pans
larger than the top of an ordinary
stove. Everything shines, and the
glass, silver and china would compare
with any ordinary hotel. One hun
dred girls are lodged in the house.
of good size and very neatly furnished.
They are those who have no parents or
relatives living in Paris, and Nine.
Roucicault took the space from her
own dwelling to provide for them,
when the problem of their proper pro-
lection presented itself Their wages,
over and above their living, are obtain
ed from percentage on their sales, and
they often save enough to provide
themselves with "dot" or marriage
portion.
The system OF the Bon Marche is
unique and the results n marvel BY
the death of the founders, the enor-
nous business has passed in5o the
hands of directors, chosen by the
founders from old employees, who in
turn choose q council, from which
dire ctors will be taken TO supply the
place OF such directors as reach the age
of 80, at W hich period they retire, b.
the terms of the will, from active
dictatorship. but with abundant means.
In this way the interests are carried
on on precisely the old lines, of giving
the best possible thing for the least
possible money, aud the employe
share in the rewards.

Not Romantic.

A cynic in one of our humorous
papers contributes the following, which
shows conclusively that the author
must have had the dyspepsia, if nothing
else:
What frauds birds are. They are
represented in poetry as sweet, gush-
ing things, rising to greet the morn
with melody and bursting forth in
song on the slightest provocation. To
read bird poetry one might consider
them the most amiable of Gods crea-
lures, when the fact is. according to
naturalists, the majority of singing
birds are waspish and quarrelsome
among themselves to n high degree.
They behave worse during their sing
ING season, which is also their time for
mating, when they are popularity sup
posed to be fitting about in the most
loving manner, tenderly beseeching
each other to be my valentine" Those
who have made close study of birds
will tell you that mates are won, not
by love in but pitched battles, for the
most part, the stronger party carrying
off the prize. Some of the most pug
nacious often fight until they are killed
The females battle furiously for the
males, who sit calmly by observing the
combat, quite unprejudiced and ready
to say, "May the best bird win" Some
times the conaueror flies off with her
dearly won valentine, only to meet
some superior female on the way who
disputes the prize and wins it. If the
superior female be "star" singer in
bird opera she probably has to sup
port her husband, until she can get rid
of him and snare another.

TO keep the eyebrows in good condi-
ton, il is advised that they be rubbed
once Q week with little tincture OF
cantharides. Be very careful in using
this, and make the outlines that of q
bow. II the eyebrows are thin, use
the small crayon pencils sold for that
purpose, and be sure and select one
that will accord with your complexion,
says Bat, in the Philadelphia Times.
The medium brown is usually the best.
After the brows have been marked, take
your comb and go over them with the
teeth, exactly as il the hair were there.
This has the effect of separating the
pencil-strokes and making them look
like hair.
If people will do something to make
the eyes bright, then the old-fasbioned
plan of dashing little soapsuds in the
eye is the most innocent, but the effect
can as often be gained by the clever
placing of a little rouge just under
the eyes as by this somewhat severe
method.
The use of rouge may and may not
be liked, but as far back as can be traced
In history women have used it and it
seems most probable that they will
continue to do SO; therefore, the wis
est thing to do is to learn how to put
the rouge on well and to be certain that
a kind is used that will not injure the
skin.
The most popular is the French prep
aration that comes on the little saucers,
and which is applied with linen rag,
the average woman usually choosing
q tattered handkerchief for this pur-
pose.
1t is best to first put the rouge on,
applying it very heavily, and toning it
down with powder aftefward. Liquid
rouge, which has the advantage of re-
naming in place, is very hard to apply
properly, and is too apt to give its
wearer the air of blowsy milkmaid.
