Old CIlamOis.

When the chamois leather used for
polishing silver gets hard and soiled and
stiff, make a weak solution of soda and
warm water, rub plenty of soft soap
into the leather, and allow it o remain
in soak for two hours, then Iub it well
until it is quite clean. 1t must be rinsed
in another solution of yellow soap, soda
and warm water. After rinsing wiring
it in rough towel and dry quickly,
then pull it about and brush well and it
will become softer and better than most
new feathers. If rinsed in water only
it will become so hard when dry as to
be unfit for use. The small quantity of
soap left in the feathers allows the finer
particles to separate and become soft
like silk.-Fdrm Life.

How to BrOiI,

Broiling appears to have been the
earliest method of cooking. Whether
we broll steaks, chops, fish or fowl. the
process is the same, The object is to
cook without burning or loss of juice.
Tough meats are unsuitable for brolling,
and tender meats may be spoiled by
wrong cooking. Trim Off part of the
fat where there is much, and wipe the
moisture from the surface. Grease the
wires OF the broiIer to prevent sticking
Lay the meat on evenly, hold close to
plenty of bright, red Goals, while you
count ten, turn the broiler so the other
side of the meat is next the fire, count
and turn, and so on. Steak an inch
thick will be cooked rarein five minutes,
we'll done i'll eight or ten; chops or small
birds require eight or ten; fish a longer
time. Albumen, the chief substance in
meat, hardens under heat so the saving
of juice depends on quickly soaring the
outside. Always serve hot meat on q
hot dish. -,ShTly O1@.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
Hnmmocks for Drapery.

The Mexican hammocks, or the ordi-
nary ones sold in the shops for about
dollar, can be utilized for drapery.
They come in good colors; combina.
tons of black, yellow, red and blue.
Cut the mesh across at each end so as
to leave the twisted heads for tasse!s.
Pull the hammock out and stretch it as
much as possible. Turn the upper end
over, like a fringe work, and pass the
curtain rod, in and out, through the
meshes. When hung, it may be neces-
sary to tack the meshes at intervals until
the hammock has lost its stiffness. Loop
with the pieces of rope that come with
the hammock, and attach the twisted
ends as tassels. -H0ueeUifc.

The Queen of COrea.

The Queen of Corea is no figure head.
She belongs to one Of the greatest fami-
lies of the country, and it is an open
secret that she has at times her voice in
the councils of the King. She has an
establishment of her own inside the
palace grounds, and the King, the Crown
Prince and the Queen have each their
separate households. The Queen dresses,
OF course, in Corean costume. She
wears fine silks and she has beautiful
diamonds. She carries chatelaine
watch, which is diamond-studded and
she smokes American cigasette' by the

A new use has been invented for the
homely, straightforward kitchen chair.
1t is either gilded or enameed and a
cushion of cotton batting, covered in
gay silk, is tied into the seat with rib
bons, while a second one scented with
violet powder aud orris is tied upon the
back. A portion of the legs may be
sawed off and the old chair becomes a
thing of comfort and beauty.

Rooms Ornamented With Flutter-
ing Butterflies,

A novel idea for the ornamentation of
an apartment is to fill the air with futter-
ing butterflies of every hue. Get the
Japanese napkins of stained paper or
squares of colored tissue paper. Two
colors can be used, one placed over the
other, to form the wings; when slightly
crimped and dashed with specks of
water-color they are improved. The
squares should be cut Of the requisite size
and fastened with small clothes pin.
These must be painted brown and zoned
with yellow. feelers of wire may be
added. The butterflies should bestrung
at intervals on invisible wires placed at
uneven distances across the room. These
airy nothings futter like living things
with every passing zephyr. A bent pin
can be fastened to the center of the body
to secure them to the wire. They may
be also pinned on lace curtains or on
picture wires as if just alighting, -

IN THE COAL MINES.
Dangers That Surround the Under
ground ToiIers.
INTERVIEW With A MINER.

To the majority of the public of this
country coal mines and coal miners have al
ways been a source of interest. When
traveller, out for pleasure trip. strikes a
town where coal mines are located his first
object is TO get permit to visit them. There
is charm of novelty and excitement at
tached to the trip. To step into the car and
be lowered swiftly down the long, dark
shaft into the very bowels of the earth. A
feeling of exhilaration, not unmixed with, a
nervous dread, as one shoots downward
through space. The visitor sees only the
wonderful portions of the work, and gains
only slight idea of the dangers of the
mines. Not 50 with the hardy, smoke-be-
grimed miner. He is fully alive to the con
slant peril of his position. Explosions from
fire damp, falling Jumps of coal, loosened
by blast, and, as is often the case. cave
in of the entire tunnel. These are few of
the worst enemies of the underground toll
ers. Mr.. David II. Brown, who resides in
Stowe township, directly back of CHARTERS,
formerly of Toms Run, is an overseer in the
coal mines of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, and gave the writer an interest
ing account of his experiences as miner.
My trouble began about 13 years ago.
1t came on me gradually, and was caused
by colds, contracted from exposure to the
dampness in the mines. My nostrils be-
came clogged up, and could not breathe
through my nose. My head was stopped
up, and I had dull, heavy pain across my
forehead and in my temples all the time.
There was buzzing and roaring sound in
my ears. This condition continued for
long time. Finally my trouble began TO ex-
tend, and soon found myself in very seri-
nus condition
