The Ironing of Table Linen,

A writer in n recent exchange offers
the following suggestions concerning
the washing and ironing of table linen:
The wringer, while it saves labor
does it at the expense of the table cloth
or napkin that passes through it. The
wringing out of the very thin starch or
rinsing water should be done by hand.
as 1t is not at all necessary that starche9
linen especially should be wrung very
dry, the hands Will do Just as we'll
Shake the articles thoroughly, or fold
them into manageable size. But little
starch should be used in such articl es-
just enough to give them the new feel
ing, and to take the polish of the iron
1t is not necessary to use any starch at
all if the linen is ironed when quite
dame, and patiently gone over until
thoroughly dry.
Always take table cloths from the
linen while still damp. Fold the linen
evenly, and roll up in tight roll, wrap
ping large pieces in damp towels, so
that they will not dry on the outside.
Napkins should be similarly treated, and
each size and pattern rolled up in
damp towels in packages by themselves,
until ready to iron. The irons should
be as heavy and IS hot as possible with
out danger of scorching. Iron table
linen in single fold if you wish to bring
the pattern out handsomely, and let
there be several thicknesses of flannel
upon the ironing board. A damp towel
may be laid over portion of the cloth
that the operator will not Immediately
reach. When the entire surface has
been ironed. fold it lengthwise, and
iron again with the selvage toward the
operator. Go over the entire length of
that side, then fold with the just COM
pleted portion inside, and SO continue
until the cloth is folded and done. If
still damp, hang in the sun or on a
clothes horse until thoroughly dry.
Napkins are to be similarly treated, and
should never have their first ironing
when folded together, but be gone over
singly, then folded as directed with the
table e lot "

PAYS His OWn Way.

From the Merchant Traveller.
"What has become of the clerk you
had couple of months ago ?' asked q
travelling man of the landlord.
"He is travelling around the country
giving spirtualistic seances."
Indeed Is he making any money!
ooh, he doesn't need any money"
"Why not2"
"He's a circulating medium himself,
isn't he"
And the traveller took up his grip and
went to another hotel.

Tar and Feathers,

The application of a coat of tar and

shaved, then boiling tar poured upon
his head, and a cushion of feathers
shook over it. The culprit was put
r. hore the first time the vessel
touched. The earliest record of such

How to Clean Ivory.

Ivory ornaments are quickly cleaned
by brushing them with a sharp, not very
new toothbrush to which a little soap is
given, then rinse in luke warm water.
Next dry the ornaments and continue to
brush till the luster appears, which can
be increased by pouring little alcohol
upon upon the brush. Should the ar
ticle have become yellow, dry it in gem
tie heat and it will regain its original

THANKSGIVING.

We look to the hills for rest:
For strength We look TO the sea;
For the boon of these, and fair beGuest
Ofteaming lands TO the seaways, We
With jog give thanks.
Best than,is for the favor is
The fullest use of the gift;
And pleasure expressed is song of praise.
And praise is a prayer whereby we lift
Unceasing thanks.
Now at the time of the feast,
And of bursting granaries,
Now sound of scythe on the grass has ceased
And reapers rest, with a smile of ease,
Dow give thanks.
But now at the feast, alone,
But ever, from June to June,
While the harvest is budded and blown,
By the glad thought of the heart in tune,
Dow give thanks.
For suns that mellow the fruit
For strong, clean winds and the SHOWS
Like fold of fleece upon the root
OF the oak, and the root of the rose,
Do we give thanks.
For dews and for warm, soft rains,
That infuse new blood in the wood,
For the herb and vine that flushed the lanes,
Through waving fields at the Summer Hood
Do We give thanks.
For thrill on the line of nerves,
That leap in quick response
To music touch, and the thrill that serves
As the souls applause to eloquence,
Do we give thanks.
For strength of the firm, 1.-THE limbs,
And wealth Of body and long
Deep reach of thought, and hope that skins
Like bird, our heaven for light, with song,
Do we give thanks.
For subtle force of the brains
Keen power, and the fire thereof,
For the jubilant blood in our veins,
That leaps and bounds, when life is enough,
Do we give thanks.
By yigor of brain and thought,
By reach of the sympathies,
By much well doing and pleasure wrought
By color of fields and flow of seas,
Do we give thanks.

FOR YOUNG GFOLKs-ENLARGED AND
PRINTED INNEw TYPE.
Since 1873. when, under the editorial
management of Mrs. Mary Mapes Dodge,
the publication of Nicholas for Young
Folks was begun, it has led all magazines
for girls and boys. Nothing like it was
known before, and to-day, as the Chicago
Inter-O Ocean recently said, 1T is the mod
el and ideal juvenile magazine of the
world. Through its pages the greatest
writers of our time are speaking of the
youth of America and England, and the
best artists and engravers are training
the eyes of the boys and girls to appreci-
ate the highest i'll art. Nobody knows
how many readers St. Nicholas has In
the third largest public library in Ameri-
ca,-that i'll Indianapolis, s,-mOre than
800 people read each months number.
Since the first issue Mrs. Dodge has re-
manned as editor. Early in It's history
other young peoples magazines, Our
Young Folks" "rhe Little Corporal"
"Riverside," ETC., were consolidated with
it, and its history has been one of growth
from the first. TennysOn, Bryant, Long
fellow, Whittier, Miss Aleott, Mrs. Bur
nett, Charles Dudley Warner, w. ID. How
ellis, and almost every well-knOwn writer
of our time have contributed to its pages.
There is only one way in which its con-
ductOrS can make it better, and that is
by making more of it, and so they an
nounce that with the beginning of the
seventeenth volume November, 1889 st.
Nicholas will be enlarged by the addition
of eight. and sometimes sixteen, extra
pages in each number. This enlargement
is absolutely required to make room for
the rich store of new material which has
been secured for the benefit of st. NEchO-
las readers The use of new and clearer
type will be begun with the November
number.
During the coming year there are to be
four important serial stories by four we'll
known American authors. Athletics
and outdoor sports will be a special feat
ure contributed by Walter Camp, of
Yale, and othersl, and there will be
stories of character and adventure,
sketches of information and travel, out
door papers, articles of special literary
Interest, suggestive talks on natural his
tory. other scientific subjects, and the
march of events. Both the December
and January numbers are to be holiday
issues.

1t is not at all true that Governor
Foraker is looking around for persons
upon whom to take vengeance for his
defeat. He is comforted by the con-
seriousness of clean hands, a good record
and clear conscience. He will resume
his residence and law practice in Cinein-

a grievance. He is the youngest man
in the country of equal conspicuity in

him personally that there opens before
him an intermission in public service
