WASHINGTON, Oct. 29. "so'many false and

their possession bright, clear and coherent

HINTS TO ~HOUsEKEEPERS.

A little gum arabic imparts a gloss to
ordinary starch.
To prevent a door from creaking apply
a little soap to the hinges.
To clean steel, rub the article with a
piece of wash leather dipped in kerosene.
A good egg has a clean, healthy look
ing shell, while a bad one has a dull,
porous-looking shell.
The best thing to clean tinware is COM
mon soda; rub on briskly with a damp
cloth, after which wipe dry.
Cake is baked when a fine splinter of
wood will pass through without any of
the cake adhering, and not until then.
To clean. alabaster ornaments dissolve
borax in boiling water and apply with a
soft cloth or brush; rinse carefully and
dry in the sun.
When ivory becomes discolored it may
be restored to it's white color by being
to the action of light while shut up in a
well-closed glass case.
Articles made Of ivory should not be
exposed to heat or dryness. They should
never be exposed to the direct rays of a
hot sun or placed in a closet near or I'M
der a fire, as they are very apt to split
under such circumstances.
To prevent tin from rusting, rub fresh
lard over every part of the dish, and then
put it in a hot oven, heat it thoroughly.
Thus treated, any tinware may be used in
water constantly, and it will remain
bright and free from rust indefinitely.
When ivory has been kept long it is
apt to diminish in weight, owing to the
loss of gelatine, of which it is partly com
posed. This may be remedied by soaking
the article in a solution of that substance.
1t is in consequence of ivory being thus
influenced that in making very minute
measurements it is seldom employed.
The following is a good recipe for
cologne water: Take a pint Of alcohol
and put in thirty drops of oil of lemon,
thirty of bergamot and half a gill of
water. If musk or lavender is desired,
add the same quantity of each. The oils
should be put in the alcohol and shaken
we'll before the water is added. Bottle it
for use.
Cuffs that are laundried at home often
fail to please because they are ironed out
fiat, and when the buttons are put in the
cuffs blister and wrinkle. This can be
avoided, if the laundress only knows how
to iron the cuffs until they are perfectly
dry, and then takes the broad end of the
hat-iron, and, pressing very hard on the
edge, slowly goes over the length of the
cuff. The cuff will roll as the iron leaves
it. This is so simple an operation that
one is likely to succeed the first time she
tries to do it.

THE STABLES OF A GERMAN
PRINCE.

The Prince of Lippe-D etmold, who
entertained the Emperor William re-
Gently, is one of the richest German
royalties, says London Truth. He
possesses an immense fortune and vast
estates, which lie principally in West
phalia.
He owns nearly the whole of his
dominions, which is very nice for his
subjects, whose taxes are merely
nominal in amount, and they are
greatly envied by their less fortunate
neighbors in the adjoining States
The Schloss of Detmold is a mag
nifcent royal seat with an immense
round tower like that at Windsor.
The gardens are beautiful and the
fountains rival those of Herrenhausen;
but the admirably arranged stables
are the great features.
They always contain about a>hun
dred fine horses, all of the famous
Senner blood, which are bred at the
Princes farm. of Lopshorn. These
Senner horses are very hardy and are
remarkable for their powers of endur-
ance. The breed is of Arab origin,
and the stud, which contains $50
mares, is probably the oldest in
Europe, for it has existed since the
fifteenth century.
The Teutoburgian forests around
Detmold, which belong to the Prince,
are full of all kinds of game, and the
"stags run even heavier than those
in the Duke Of Saxe-Coburg (Gotha's)
Thuringian forests.

spoonfuls of pepper, vinegar and celery

l MUST beg the birds and flowers,
And the little stars above,
To assist me, for l dare not
Say to her one word of love.
For she's either scOrnful, roguish,
Or so naughty and sedate,
That / cannot tell my story,
Yet l long to know my fate.
Little brides, sing it softly
As you flutter round her head;
Golden sunbeams, write it plainly
Where her busy footsteps tread;
Silver star points, as you twinkle
Way up in the dusky sky,
Find som way to tell my darling
OF the fond heart beating nigh.
Gentle zephyrs, won't you murmur
1t in whispers low and sweet ?
Babbling ~broOklets, sing it softly
As you ripple at her feet.
| will watch while you are pleading;
She will list to what yOu say;
And her face will tell me whether
She will answer yea or ndg.
Oh, to see her blush and tremble
While soft lovelights softly shine
In her eyes; to feel her shyly
Put her little hand in mine
Earth and sky and running waters,
Whispering winds and singing birds,
Send your aid and tell my darling
What l dare not put in words
