Half a teaspoonful of sugar will nearly always revive a dying fire, and, unlike the few drops of coal oil which servants are so fond of using and which have caused So many sad accidents, is perfectly safe.
 To cook summer squash, wash clean and peel or not as you chsose, but cut open and take out most of the seeds, and cook in hot water. When done skim into Q pan, and with a plate squeeze as dry as you can, season with plenty of butter and little salt-The House. keeper.
 Orange Float-One quart of water and the juice of two lemons, one cupful of sugar, let this boil and add three tablespoonfuls of corn-starch mixed smooth, stir until the mixture has boiled ten minutes, let it become cold, then pour it over four or five oranges sliced, cover the tops with the beaten whites of three eggs sweetened and favored with vanilla.
 -Rhubarb Tapioca Pudding.-Soak a cup of tapioca over night, and cook in water till perfectly smooth, and of the consistency of warm blanc mango. Put uncool1ed rhubarb in the bottom of a pudding dish, plenty of it, sweeten lav- ishly, and pour over this the cooked tapioca, cover and bake in the oven for thirty-five or forty minutes, or until the rhubarb is done.-The Household.
 In washing all body linen, napery and bed linen the practice of soaking them for some hours in water in which borax has been dissolved is a good one. Nor should clothing be boiled beyond fifteen or twenty minutes at most None but the best soaps ought to be used in any kind of washing, and after clothing has been rubbed in the first water, and put loosely into the boiler, with plenty of water to scald it in, it should not re- quire rubbing again in the sudsing water.
 Match Scratcher.-Take a piece of ribbon three inches wide and seven long Fasten narrow ribbon at the top to hang up and fringe out the lower edge to the depth of one inch. Just above the fringe lasted piece of sand paper one and a half inches wide and three inches long. At the top fasten another piece one-half inch in width. Between these two p:eces of sand paper, outline on the ribbon with gold tinsel or silk the words ''Nfatches and Scratch es. The Home.
 --Horseradish Sauce. Mix two or three heaping tablespoonfuls of fresh grated horseradiSh with twice as much sweet cream. Salt it lightly and stir in an equal number of fdessertspoonfuis of vinegar with a teaspoonful of sugar. Add little pepper-sauce or cayenne if very hot sauces are liked. Ths sauce is good either hot or cold. If preferred hot, it must be warmed in a double boiler, taking care that 1t does not boil or it will curdle. It is specially good with roast beef. either hot or cold.

EDWARD BELLAMY, the author of Looking Backward" has excellent reasons for looking backward. Excusing himself for non-attendance, because of his lack of health, at the unveiling of his great grandfather's monument in Beth lehem, he wrote that he felt that "my first duty is to my posterity, boy of five, and girl of four, rather than to my ancestry. It is bad to be an unduti- full great-grandson, but worse still to be a reckless parent"

The police refuse any information except that the rob- bery was committed and that a reward of $1 ,O00 Is offered for the recovery of the jewels.

 telegraph offices as postal stations. The postmaster-general shall contract with one or more of the telegraph companies now in existence for a period of ten
 years. Rates proposed are as follows : For the first twenty words or less,
 counting address and signature, between postal stations in the same state and less than 300 miles apart, fifteen cents. Be- tween stations not less than 300 miles apart and not in the same state, twenty five cents for the first twenty words or less. No rate shall be greater than fifty cents for twenty words. Within two years after the passage of the bill one half of the postal telegraph stations con- templated shall be connected by wires of the companies receiving the contract. and within the next succeeding year at least one half of the remainder shall be so connected. The postmaster general shall prescribe the rules and regulations for carrying out the purposes of the bill.

THEY marry in Chicago. The other day the marriage license clerk issued a hundred and seventeen licenses to wed during the day and received the sum of $2S4. It was not very good day for this branch of business, either. It was hot and sultry during the forenoon, while a rain storm, accompanied by thunder and lightning, occurred in the afternoon. Had the weather been more propitious it is likely that a larger vol ume of business would have been trans acted. Nearly all the licenses were issued to couples residing within the city limits.

THIS is the year and now is the time for those parties who expect to vote in '92 to become naturalized. Don't wait until it is too late. Go to the court, which is in session any day at City hall, and get out your papers. The democra- tic town committee might do worse than to appoint some good man to look after this business. There are many votes lost each campaign by persons neglect ing to take out their naturalization papers in time.
