Jean Inge,Ow.

But few moments ride from Lon
don is the Kensington home of Jean
Ingelow The house is an old one,
of cream-colored stone, and one scarce
ly knows whether it has two or three
stories. Liberal grounds surround the
house, and even in winter show a gar
dener's care. In summer the entire
lawn is bordered and dotted with flow
ers, for the poet is pronounced hort-
culturist. During the cold weather a
spacious conservatory attached to the
house shelters the flowers, and in this
hot-house of palms and buds she is
often found by her friends, reading or
writing. Flowers bloom, too, in al
most every room in the house, on cen
tire tables, mantels, and in the bay win
dows. Jean Ingelow's home is that of
a poet, with books on every hand, and
always within reach wherever you may
chance to sit down. The poet is now
in middle life, but her face shows not
the slightest trace of years. Her man
ner is most friendly, her conversation
charming, and in a most musical voice.
She has a remarkably correct know
ledge of American literature, the titles
of all the latest American books being
spoken by her with wonderful fuency.
Her character is eminently practical,
without touch of sentimentality. All
her literary writing is done in the fore
noon; her pen is never put to paper by
gaslight. She composes slowly, and
her verses are often kept by her for
months before they are allowed to go
out for publication. She shuns society,
and the most severe part of the winter
is spent in the south of France.

From an exhaustive study of the
large collection of meteorites at Har-
ward College, The conclusion has been
arrived at that many of the masses of
meteoric iron now known are cleavage
crystals, broken off, probably, by the
impact of the mass against the atmos-
phere. 1t is found that these masses
show cleavings parallel to the planes of
all the three fundamental forms OF the
isometric or regular system. From all
that appears, the theory has come to be
entertained that the masses of meteor
ties were thrown off from a sun among
the fixed stars, and that they were
slowly cooled off while revolving in a
zone of intense heat.

KEEPING OH CLOTH BRIGHT AND
GLossY.-Neyer use soap in the water
when cleaning oil cloth. 1t fades the
colors and breaks up the paint. Am
monia, also, is to be avoided, Because il
gives the cloth dull dead look. If a
brush is used, il should be soft one,
but it is better not to use any, except in
cases where the oil cloth has been long
neglected or poorly washed for some
time previously.
Take a clean flannel cloth and apply
clear warm water. which is finally to be
removed by soaking ii up into the
washing cloth again, after it hiss been
wrung out, The oil cloth is then wiped
dry with another piece of clean flannel
or coarse crash.
After the oil cloth has become thor
oughly dry, apply to it some warm lin
seed oil. The housekeeper who tries
this for the first time will probably use
too much, and make the cloth so sticky
that every particle of dust will adhere
to It. Only very little is TO be used,
and slightly rubbed into the cloth. Civ
