A Terrapin's Beseeching Eye.

David Burnham, living in a nearby
town in New Jersey, is exceedingly fond
of terrapin stew, but he does not think
much of the savory "diamond back in
any other form. Nevertheless, pet ter
rapin that some months ago almost
miraculously escaped the pot wanders
around the plot of ground on which his
house stands and sleeps in his kitchen
every night.
Las October Mr.. Burnham invited
some friends to supper, served to cele-
brate the fifth anniversary OF his we'd
ding. For six dollars he purchased in
Fulton Market a five pound terrapin, in
tending to regale his friends with his
favorite dish. lie left orders that the
terrapin should be sent by express to his
house, and supposed that it would be de-
livered in a condition better understood
by the cook than the butcher. But the
little creature was by no means in the
soup yet, and when it was laid down for
a moment with its light side uppermost
in the kitchen it proved that it was
keenly alive to the situation by waddling
at its highest rate of speed toward the
door.
1t was then turned on its back, and the
cook was invited to slaughter it. BuI
this she emphatically refused to do, and
as the other servants shared her objec~
tions Mr.. Burnham nerved himself to do
the butcher work himself. Armed
with the family carving knife he en-
tered the kitchen when the rest of the
household had retired for the night. He
says that he knelt down upon the floor
and was about to slit the terrapin's throat
when the succulent creature, lying on its
diamond back, gazed at his face with
such human, beseeching expression in
its mild, bulging eyes that the knife
dropped from his hand, and he deter
mined to spare its life.
The terrapin has shown itself grateful,
but not demonstratively so, for the
mercy extended to it. When Mr.. Burn
ham approaches its usual resting place,
under great chestnut tree, it croaks
cheerfully, and slowly moves to meet
him. 1t will take piece of bruised and
softened meat, small fish, or even q
piece of water-soaked bread from his
hand, but its appetite is not large, and it
sleeps most of the time. 1t is growing
fat rapidly, and swells beyond its shell
with a posterior and an anterior
plethora-at least so Mr.. Burnham says,
and he has studied DIR. Johnson's mode
of expression pretty closely. 1t does not
fear the cold, being warmly clad.-NeW
York Times,
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1889-04-03

In washing flannels, make a suds Of
blood-warm water and white soap. AL
low the flannels to soak in this water
from one-half to one whole hour, then
wash them with as little friction as pos
sible, using no rubbing board or soap,
save what is dissolved in the water !;
squeeze the articles with the hands un-
til the dirt is forced out as much as
possible, then change to another clear
suds prepared in the same way and finish
the washing process. Finally rinse in
warm water, in which you may pat a
very little bluing if you like. Do not
wiring as you do other clothes, but
simply squeeze out the water enough to
admit of carrying to the line, and be
sure when removing the flannels from
one water to another that each sue
cessive water is hotter than the last
never any colder.
If you wish to restore the color of
fannels which are apparently ruined by
bad treatment, it can be done by max
ing a solution of one and one-half
pounds of white soap and two thirds of
an ounce of spirits of ammonia dissolved
in twelve gallons of soft water. By
dipping the tannels in this, and wetting
them thoroughly in the solution,
beautiful and lasting whiteness will be
impaired to them, no matter how yellow
they were previous to their immersion.
After being well stirred round for a
short time, take the articles out and
wash well in clean, soft water.
To cleanse blankets, put two large
tablespoonfuls of borax and one.half a
bar of white soap (cut up the soap into
thin shavings with a knife, before put
ting into the water into tub of luke
warm water; when the soap and borax
are well dissolved, put in the blankets
and let them remain in soak over night ;
the next morning wash well and rinse in
two waters, and hang out to dry with
out wringing them at all.-Detroit Free
Press.
