If the cover is removed from soap
dishes the soap will not get soft.
When fiat-irons become rusty, black
them with stove-polish, and rub well
with dry bush.
Use charcoal to broil with. The
flames close the pores very quickly
and make the meat very tender.
Silver can be kept bright for months
by being placed in an air-tight case
with good-sized piece of camphor.
Use squares of dull-colored felt,
pinked at the edges, under statuary or
any heavy ornaments that are liable
to mar polished surface.
Do not keep ironed clothes on bars
in the kitchen any longer than is
necessary for thoroughly drying.
They gather unpleasant odors.
Equal parts of white shellac and al
cohol is permanent fxative for
crayon and charcoal sketches. Spray
it on evenly with an artists atomizer
Mahogany and cherry furniture often
gets dull for want of good cleaning
with moist cloth. Polish with the
hand, rubbing well, and the result will
be surprising.
Windows can be cleaned in winter
and the frost entirely removed by using
gill of alcohol to pint of hot water
Clean quickly and rub dry with a warm
chamois skin.
An old and reliable English cook
book gives the following recipe as an
oil-cloth restorer: Melt one-half Of an
ounce of beeswax in saucer of turpen-
tine. Rub the surface all over with it
and rub in with dry cloth.
Telegraph wire of galvanized iron is
much better to hang clothes on in
winter than rope, as the clothes will
not freeze to it. Have it hung up by
line-man and it will never give" no
matter what the weather may be.
For chapped hands, make camphor-
ice of one and one-half ounces Of sper-
maceti tallow, four teaspoonfuls Of oil
OF sweet almonds and three-fourths of
an ounce of gum-camphor pulverized
fine. Put on back of stove until dis
solved, stirring constantly, using just
enough heat to melt the Ingredients
together.
Laundry polish for shirts, collars
and cuffs, etc., is made in the follow

one ounce of white wax and two
ounces OF spermaceti with one large
tablespoonful of salt Turn into wet
cup to cool. Make boiled starch as
usual. cooking slowly for twenty
minutes, and for every tablespoonful

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

Harrow the wheat lands as long
as possible; this makes firm seed-beds,
which are abominated by chinch bugs.
No animal is so hardy as to re-
ouirc no attention. The more an ami
NAL is exposed the less it will produce,
either of pork, wool, mutton, beef or
milk.
A hen of large breed should not
lay less than from 10 to 120 eggs, the
small breeds from $50 to 175; any that
lay less eggs than that should not be
kept.
The advantage in well tiled land
is that the surface water drains off
rapidly without washing. 1t warns
up quicker and seeding can be done
earlier. t1 14t
If the supply of hay is short use
straw and corn fodder as part of the
daily ration. Any deficiency in the
coarse food can be supplied with extra
grain. In fact, any ration can be
balanced by the judicious use of
ground grain and cottonseed or linseed
meal. sT4ue~
Vines are of some service. The
potato vine contains a large amount of
potash, and should be added to the
manure heap. The vine of the sweet
potato and pea is readily eaten by
stock, as also the tops of many roots
that are grown. If all such material
were carefully saved and fed it would
produce many thousands of pounds of
meat.
The common weed known as rag
weed or bitter weed, is readily eaten
by cows, and if abundant in pastures
is sure to make the butter bitter. The
only immediate remedy is to keep the
cows away from it, and then, if pos
sible, exterminate the weed. The
same weed produces that distressing
form of influenza known as ebay fever"
in many persons.
In feeding poultry, one must be
very careful not to use damaged grain
or sour leavings. The latter will Of
tentimes cause dyspepsia, and bring on
a half-dozen other troublesome dis
eases. Warm feed only on cold days
should be given. When the weather
is warm do not rely too much upon
the above diet. A change is desirable
and will work benefit to the digestive
organs, which are unusually active at
this season of the year.
An enthusiastic bee-keeper writes:
The preserving qualities OF honey are
immense. The best hams are cured
with honey, and pears and apples are
often preserved with honey. In fact,
honey has the quality of preserving
for long time in fresh state any
thing that may be laid in it or mixed
with it, and to prevent it's corruption
in far superior manner to sugar;
thus many species of fruit may be pre-
served by being laid in honey, and by
this means obtain pleasant taste and
give to the stomach healthy tone
One who has once tried it will not use
sugar for preserving fruit

THE LATE COLOROW.
Characteristics of the Recently Deceased
Chief OF the White River Utes

ChlG4 OF the W mite hlver UteS.
Since the 'Ute war" fiasco OF Au-
gust, 1887, Colorow had been under
military surveillance which chafed
him, and added to his usual surliness,
but, undoubtedly, restrained him from
annoying the people in the White
River country. He was seventy five
years old.
Colorow would never scare. MANY
times his camp has been approached by
cowboys, and he has listened to their
threats without moving. Some two
years ago he was camped near Elk
Springs, and one evening party of
eleven armed men rode up to his camp
and told the old chief he would have to
move on He listened to them in ST.
lence, and when they got through and
waited for him to reply he deliber-
ately stepped into his tepee, appeared
again with a Winchester, and said he
was ready to be moved. 1t is needless
to say he was not moved.
Whenever in council with other
chiefs he was always harping on the
loss of his country, and the treachery
Of the other White River chiefs. Col
GROW was a good rifle shot. In fact,
all of the old Indians are, as a rule,
better shots than the younger ones.
One time, while spending few days at
Ouray agency, the chief and head men
had little council. All the
other Indians had secured their
rations, and one large steer remained
in the corral for distribution
among the chiefs. The question
of who should do the shooting came
up. and it was left to Colorow, he
being the Oldest one present. The
chiefs went to the corral in a body
and Colorow, studying the position Of
the steer, which was seventy-fve
yards distant, took rife from the
hands Of a bystander, and quicker
than flash, threw the gun into posi-
ton, fired, and the animal dropped
dead, struck squarely between the
eyes.
His trade in pelts and furs amounted
to thousands of dollars a year The
country was overrun with outlaws
and outcasts of every description, and
every depreciation committed in the
way Of killing stock or stealing was
laid to Colorow and his followers. The
old chief actually thought he was
looked upon by the settlers as the
rightful owner of the country as he
was humored in this whim by many to
avoid tiresome talk.
He will probably be succeeded as
chief by his son Gus. who possesses
all the old mans daring, but lacks the
lawless characteristics of his father.
A Government scout said:
''CoiOroW was cross, grabbed
mean, and always had tremendous
appetite. He was always hungry. He
drank his share Of firewater, too. Now
that he has gone no one but his
rquaws and his tribe will mourn, and
the Indian problem becomes very
simple one. If he were still alive and
younger man the Government would
have great trouble, as Colorow's ex-
treme age was all that prevented the
fftes from committing many serious
depredatiOns in recent years"

One Secret of Longevity.

Those anxious to prolong this rapid transi-
tory existence of ours beyond the average
span, should foster his digestion, negatively
by abstaining from indiscretions in diet, and
af1irmatively by the use of that peerless
stomachic, Hostetter's Stomach Bltters,
when he experiences symptoms Of lndi-
gestion. The impairment of the digestive
function is fatal to vigor. Subdue with the
