HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Next to a good range a good clock is
of paramount Importance in the kitchen.
To clean teakettle, take it away
from the fire and wash off with a rag
dipped in kerosene, followed By rub
bing with dry flannel cloth.
When you have spilled anything on tho
stove, or milk has boiled over and suf-
foca.ing smoke arises, sprinkle the spot
with salt and it will disappear immedia-
tely.
To clean brass, immerse it several
times in sour milk or whey. This will
brighten it without securing. 1t may
then be secured with wooden cloth
dipped in ashes.
To mend cracks in stoves and stove
pipes, make paste OF ashes and salt
with water and apply. A harder and
more durable cement Is made of iron
filings, sal ammoniac and water.
To clean smoky marble, brush paste
made of chloride of lime ard water over
the entire surface; grease spots can be
removed from marble by applying paste
of crude potash and whiting in this man
ner.
An invalid writing pad is something
new. 1t consists of a tray fitted with
blotter and other necessaries, which can
be supported at will upon four short legs,
called into use by means of spring.
When not in use the legs close under the
tray.
If those people who have hard, dirty
work to do will go to work and thor
oughly cleanse themselves and put on
clean clothing throughout, they will find
themselves twenty per cent. more rested
and refreshed than if they had remained
still and kept on their soiled garments.
Let everybody try this plan.
The supply of water to plants through
their roots is always more abundant
when the soil is kept warm; hence, when
plants begin to wilt, mere warming tho
earth around the roots will sometimes
cause them to revive. But it must be
remembered that roots Except those of
aquatics) need air to breathe, and hence
must not be drowned.
mediately after rising in the morning,
and they should not be allowed to rush
from the breakfast table to the beach
and get into the water as soon as they
can. Very few children should be given
full bath in the morning. They may
be spopged over quickly and then rubbed
fairly dry; but as for plunging child
into water, even lukewarm, and soaking,
the practice must soon prove injurious
to the little ones health.

EGG SALAD.

Boil six eggs ten minutes, then put in
cold water until cold, and slice. Have
ready cream dressing. Two eggs
beaten well, teaspoonful of sugar, one
fourth teaspoonful of salt, two table,
spoonfuls of cream, pinch of mustard,
two spoonfuls of vinegar, put in
double boiler and stir until 1t thickens.
Set away until cold, then pour over the
eggs. It is well to make the dressing
first so it will be cooling.

A Humming- Birds Nest.

A curiosity in the shape of hum
ming birds nest was on exhibition in
the show-window at Megede's jewelry
store last week. 1t contained one egg.
The nest and the egg together would
not weigh much more than an ounce.
The nest was daintily fashioned and was
lined with soft fuzz much resembling
silk. 1t was found by Sam Ringo in the
woods northeast of town.--Richmond

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

You can't make eggs from food that
produces fat.
You can't keep chickens in health
without grit.
Fall planting of small fruits is best
because the plant is dormant. In the
spring the plant should be growing.
It is better to cut the black knots out
of cherry trees and burn them rather
than to apply kerosene, as some recon-
mend. Badly infested trees should be
cut down bodily and the knots burned.
Pansy seed for spring Towering in the
open border may now be sown. Young
plants can be kept through winter in a
cold frame, and old ones will winter
with a light protection of evergreen
boughs in the north.
Comfort must be the rule for live stock
and poultry if they are expected to do
well. Good feed and plenty of it, good
treatment and mild temperature would
work revolution in the product-book
OF many complaining farmers.
To cause quick and strong growth on
roses, carnations and all plants of the
flower and vegetable order out or in
doors try watering once week with
little nitrate of soda solution, say tea
spoonful in gallon of water.
A large proportion of the poultry sent
to market from now on until cold
weather will be in very poor condition,
and this is one leading cause for low
prices. A little better feed and care
would greatly improve the quality.
Japanese bamboos in small state,
grown in jars, are useful for indoor
decoration-a use to which they are
much put by the Japanese. Bamboos
are among the handsomest and most
graceful ornaments of gardens and plan
tations.
While young pigs may not derive much
benefit from pastures except through the
exercise and contact withsthe soil, when
the weather is suitable it is the safest
place to keep them, as old pens with
their unhealthy surroundings and bad
atmosphere are particularly injurious.
Copperas and gentlan together form
an excellent tonic for horses. Mix four
ounces of each thoroughly in the pow
dered state; keep the mixture tightly
shut up in box or bottle and give
tablespoonful of it in the horses feed at
night. To colts smaller quantity must
oc given.
A coating of linseed oil is being
brushed on the handles of new hoes,
ral<es, etc., and we'll soaked in at all
joints and lemons, and especially where
wood and iron join. The tools not only
last longer, but are much pleasanter to
use, and do double the work in day
that old, dull, loose or rusty ones will,
even in willing hands, to say nothing of
delays caused by breaking.
Good butter is in demand. The diff
Guilty with butter is that an enormous
amount of inferior butter is put on the
market, which opens the gates to oleo-
margarine and other substitutes. It is
known as fact that large number of
those who make butter do not under
stand the process as well as they should,
and the necessity for holding dairy
schools is being urged. In Europe the
establishment of such schools has led to
excellent results.

THE ALLIANCE WILL
TRIUMPH.
IN. C.. Inteligencer.l


We do not think it is wise or pru-
dent to draw a distinction of a sec
tional character, and apply to any
branch Of the Alliance, It is some
times necessary to use geographical
term in order to give direction to and
localize references and comments on
the proceedings of certain branches of
the Alliance, but when such proceed
ings are partly Incompatible with
those Of other branches in another
geographical part of the country it is
not in accordance with the fraternal
principles of the National Alliance to
eliminate and sect onaiize. Nor can
it be viewed other wise than as a tumid
apprehension to publish only such de
liberations as are favorable to the Al
lance, and it is an improper exercise
of the Office or enlightened journalism
to imp;iedy question the motives o:
such journals as choose to publish the
news.

from without as we'll as from within,
