Worth More After it Was Broken.

"The mending of china in this city is
increasing in proportion to the amount of
fine china being introduced into the
houses of the wealthy" said Harry For
roster, to reporter for the Washington
Post. sin Europe the art of mending
china is one that occupies great many
people and that calls forth the greatest
degree of skill. This is so from the fact
that heirlooms in family cannot be re-
placed, and every effort is made to pre-
serve them after being broken when they
are in the form of china. You would
think that the breaking of bowl would
reduce its value great deal, but there
are pieces of such china in Europe that
have been broken into dozen pieces,
put together again and are then worth
more than before the calamity.
"Of course such cases have arisen only
when the breaking was connected with
some historic event that created relic
of the broken piece. There was a punch
bowl, l remember, for sale in a china
store of Berlin some years ago. The
present Emperor, then "A Prince, visited
the store and in looking over the goods
accidently broke one of the handsomest
pieces of chinaware there. He at once
offered to pay for it at any price the
dealer should name, but the latter being
equal to the occcsion insisted that he
could not take money for it, but said
that if the Prince would but write line
saying that he had accidently broken the
bowl it would cause no loss. The note
was written and without the Princes
knowledge was attached on the mended
china. The price that had formerly been
on it was increased four-fold, the bowl
was sold, and after the Prince became
Emperor it was worth many times what
it had brought at the last sale. "

BREAD SAUCE.

Measure out about third of cup of
fine sifted bread crumbs Stir them into
a pint of rich milk. Add two slices of
onion, and put the whole in a double
boiler to cook from ten to twenty min
utes. When the bread crumbs seem to
have swelled out and thickened, add sail
and pepper and two tablespoonfuls of
butter and set back where it will keep
warm. Take large cup of coarse, un-
sifted bread crumbs which have been
well dried, and fry them in butter till
5hey are brown and crisp. Lay the roast
birds on hot game platter; pour the
white bread sauce around them, removing
the onion, and sprinkle the fried crumbs
over their breasts and few on the sauce.
Decorate the dish with few spriggs of
parsley, and serve hot. Game should be
eaten the moment it is cooked. When
served in course at large dinner it must
be cooked while the preceding course is
being served, as it cannot be allowed to
wait or be except warm" for even ten
minutes without being spoiled. .-Neic

The Problem of the Economics.

The Economic Society is one in which
the members banded together to make
money by being stingy. One rule was
that no man connected with the society
should marry. The settlement is in Ohio
The farms aud buildings of the clan are
the best in the State. The crops are
always large. The wealth of the Econo-
mites is enormous. Years have become
mere figures on torn up calendar since
the society was formed and the leader is
now white-haired patriarchal man over
eighty years cid. Seed time and harvest
have come and gone. The rcapeIs have
whelted their scythes, oxen and milch
COWS have lowed in the broad meadow
lands, orchards have blossomed and borne
fruit, and the thousand and one charm
ing details of rural life have transpired
for the Economics or for other men, but
the Economics are not happy. Every
thing is theirs but love and the prattle Of
children. TheiI neighbors respect them
but do not follow their example. 1t is
better, they say, to be poor and happy
than rich and childless and unhappy.
The grave stares the Economics in the
face. The last parcel of soil they can
hold a title to measures but small fac-
ton OF an acre. Who will get their
richest Their esolution is shaken.
Marry they will. Children aud heirs may
come to them. They have lived in error
They will die in matrimony.-Oh Ohieago

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

To remove sewing machine oil, wet the
spots with turpentine and wash out with
cold water and toilet soap.
One teaspoonful of ammonia to a tea
cupful of water applied with rag will
clean silver and gold jewelry.
An egg well beaten in a glass of milk
and sweetened makes nice strengthen
ing drink for a teething child.
A gargle of salt and water used before
retiring at night will strengthen the
throat and keep off bronchial attacks.
Plaster of Paris is an excellent material
for sealing catsup and fruit bottles or
jars, and is more easily applied than seal
ing wax.
White dishes can be marked with ones
name on the back, with common pen
and ink, and it will not wash off for a
long time.
Strong muriatic acid applied with a
cloth and the spot washed thoroughly
with water, is recommended to remove
ink stains from boards.
Equal parts of bay rum, borax and
ammonia make a nice preparation for
cleaning the head; apply freely to the
scalp with a brush and then wash in
clear water.
A feather-bed or mattress will remain
clean and in an excellent condition for
years if kept in case made of common
sheeting, which can be removed and
washed at will.
Biscuits can be warmed to be as good
as when just baked by placing them in
the oven dry, covered closely with lin.
1t is a great improvement over the old
way of wetting them.
If one wishes to cool hot dish in a
hurry, it will be found that if the dish be
placed in a vessel full of cold, salty water,
it will cool far more rapidly than if it
stood in water free from salt
Boiling hot liquid may be safely
poured into a glass jar or tumbler by
first putting a silver spoon in the dish.
BE careful, however, that draft of
cold air does not strike the vessel while
hot
Almost any kind of fruit stains may be
removed by turning boiling water through
the stained part. If the first trial does
not entirely remove the stain repeat the
operation. This should be done before
the spot is 'set" by the usual method of
washing.
