Fleeclng the unMnrr.

A clover rogue with long list of
victims is being sought by Chief Woods
detectives. Tho fellow il known as
the writing paper man. His dealings
have been principally with women,
aud he has been successful in swind-
ling number of them. His game is
to visit small grocery store8 where he
is likely TO find two or three women.
lie carries largo basket OF stationery,
mndo up in small packages, and he,
represents that each package contains
money prize.
Whom he has secured u desirable
audience he unfolds his scheme, and
when last heard of, he had operated inI
u Philadelphia grocery He had sew
cral women interested, and after hel
had explained his system he got one of
the ladies TO draw n package which hel
presented TO her. She found the par
Gel TO contain 81. A little girl who
was present was also given n chance,
and with no trouble whatever, drew q
25-cent silver piece. Another woman
picked out n package, and she, too, re-
ceiyod n small sum. "They are all
filed like that" he said.
The woman who kept the store
wanted to buy some and he told her
that the only way no could mako
money was by selling his goods in large
quantities. The price was 81 per
dozen packages, but hecould not sell
less than five dozen. The woman laid
down So and received five dozen pack
ages. Tho smooth-tongued stranger
departed at once, and the woman took
her account of stock, finding she had
about 20 cents worth OF very ordinary
paper, which is much more than she
will use in many years, but no monoy
prizes. She used pert OF it TO write
down description Of the swindler,
which she sent to the police, --PhtIa-

HOW TO KEEP THINGS CLEAN.

A good way to clean an iron sink is to
rub well with a wet cloth in kerosene
oil
To keep tinware nice and bright, scour
it every two or three weeks with finely
sifted coal ashes.
Strong brine may be used to advantage
in washing bedsteads. Hot alum water
is also recommended for this purpose.
If your dishes must be washed in hard
water, add little milk to the water and
do without soap Try this and sec if you
don't like it.
Soiled coat collars can be rubbed with
ammonia, and then a wooden cloth laid
over and hot Hat iron held just over the
cloth to steam it without pressing
Carpets should be thoroughly beaten
on the wrong side first, and then on the
right side, so as TO leave it fresh Spots
may be removed by the use Of OK gall or
ammonia and water.
If your fiat irons trouble you, by drop
ping black specks from the top or sides
when ironing, take them in pan Of
soapsuds and give them thorough wash
ing and dry quickly to prevent rusting.
In cleaning oil cloths use no soap, or
scrubbing brush; but wash off the dirt
with water and flannel. Then 90 over
with milk, and rub with soft brush till
dry and shining -Housepifc.

HedgehoE. .. FrnIt GntIlersrs.

Gathering fruit can scarcely be called
trapping, and yet there is stratapcm
attributed to that ''walking bunch Of
toothpicks' called the hcdqchoo which
may properly have place in that cate.
CORY. II seems that fruit is frequently
found in the hedgehog sleeping apart
mcnt, and IFS presence there Is explained
IN this remarkable way. It's known that
hedgehogs often climb walls and run of
upon low boughs, aud, instead Of scramb
ling down in the same manner. they
boldly make the'loap from the TOP to the
ground, sometimes ten or twelve feet
lhoy coil into BAH in IL air, strike npon
their armof Of spines, and bound away
