Farmer Bell.

Farmer Bell did not believei in mental or
moral sugar plums in his own family CIR
Gle. He was quite willing to commend
friend or acquaintance, but he had the
ory that his own family would be best
improved by Spartan discipline. The
children must learn to do their duty with
out praise, and as for his wife, she had
tOiled for fifteen years without having
once been told that she was satisfactory
housekeeper
One night the two came home from a
tea party at a neighbours house, and
Mrs Bell, with the courage of the meek,
said:

CHOW many eggs?''
''There! that's the beauty of it. With
this kind of pudding it don't make so
much difference how many you use. If
you've got plenty of eggs you can put in
several, it won't hurt; but if eggs are
scarce you can get along with less just
as well; nobody will ever notice the differ

''Do you mix your dough with milk %
'Yes-sometimes. Pm not so very par

A thoroughly competent housekeeper,

man how to make a pudding Thestory,

dialogue may not have been reported ver-

Hints to Housekeepers.

Use common salt when sweeping carpets
and it will brighten the colors wonder
fully.
To take out iron mold stains, wet with
milk and cover with salt The latter also
rubs egg stains from spoons
An excellent way to clean old brass is to
use ordinary household ammonia, undi-
luted, and rub with brush This will
leave the metal clear and bright 1t
should then be rinsed in clear water and
wiped dry.
If your sewing machine runs hard, and
your oiler is empty. try as a substitute
equal parts of clean lard and kerosene oil.
To remove coffee stains, put thick gly-
cerine on they wrong side of the article and
wash out in lukewarm water
Cabbage leaves deprived of their coarse
nerves (ribs) make an excellent dressing
for wounds of various kinds and obstin-
ate ulcers. Apply night and morning with
bandage over them.
To preventa bruise becoming black and
blue, rub first in sweet oil, then in spirits
of turpentine.
If there be much sickness about the
neighborhoodb boil the water which is used
in babies food, for boiling kills all the
animalcul@ contained in the water. Cool
it before using.
To clean bottles, put into them some
kernels of corn and a tablespoonful of
ashes, half fiji them with water and after
a vigorous shaking and rinsing you will
find the bottles as good as new.
The juice of the matured leaf of the bur-
dock in teaspoonful doses, three times a
day, was given to child five years old
affected with obstinate scrofulous oph-
thalmia (sore eyes and lids), and in a few
weeks was cured.-American Cultivator.

LAMrsoN. .RepnbIIcan, for LIeutenant

LAMpsoN, Republican, for Lieutenant
Governor, has had his plurality re-
duced to 10. In Washington township,
Lucas county, a double Republican
ticket was voted. There were two Re
publicans on the board and one Dem
ocrat. The Republicans insisted on
counting both tickets, while the
Democrat insisted on throwing
out both. The Democrat was over
ruled and both tickets were counted.
When the final count Yves made of the
tickets, Of course there was one more
ticket than there were names on the
poll books. The judges then drew cut
one ticket and threw it away, aud this
was Democratic ticket. The law re-
uuires double ticket to be thrown
out, and the judges bad no right to
draw a ticket out Of the box, Hence
there is a clear legal gain of three
Democratic votes in this case, reducing
Lampsons plurality from 22to 70.
