Many articles about the house may
be frightened wonderfully by the ap-
plication of bronzing. If you depend
on the liquid bronze sold in sn1ll bot
ties you will find that it costs c>-nsider-
able to cover much surface, but IT, you
buy bronze powder such as gas-ftters
use on pipes, and mix it with size of
two parts linseed oil and one part
coach varnish, you will find that a
great deal may be done at little cost.
TO use it, pour some of the size into a
shallow dish-a sauce plate is good
being sure to shake it up we'll first, so
that the oil and varnish will mix.
Put some of the powder into another
plate. Dip your brush in the size, and
mix up little of the powder at q
time. 1t should be thick enough to
form a good body, and must not run.
1t dries rapidly. If the lustre is not
enough after once going over the arti-
Gle, give it a second coat. Old frames
can be made to look like new in this
way. 1t can be applied to metal OF

How TO BECOME a CHRISTIAN
The parable of the lost sheep teaches
how to become Christian. One says
II have been seeking Christ for years
but cannot find Him" Do you not
see that instead of you seeking Him
He has really been seeking you all
these years, and that you have
been simply running away from Him
all the while? The way to become q
Christian is just to stop in your wan.
dering and let Christ take you up on
His shoulder and bear you away re-
joicing. People often say, II am not
good enough to be Christian" But
will the lost sheep, faint and hungry,
torn and bleeding, lying upon the jag
ged rocks, nigh to death, have to wait
till its wounds are healed, and its
strength restored, before the shepherd
will take it up? And must the lost
sinner wait for fitness before Christ
will save him? Oh, no! to become a
Ceristian is simply to stop resisting. tc
stop trying to find the home alone, and
to yield to Christ, saying, Lord Jesus
save me-" That moment you will be
lifted up by those mighty arms and
laid upon the shoulder of the omnipo-
tent love-savcd.- Westminster Teach

THE CoILIE.-The name "collie," "
used for the Scotch sheep dog, takes
it's rise not from any popularity OF
of breed in the dog, but from the kind
of sheep he once drove. In Scotland
there was a class of sheep with black
faces and legs called "collies," from
the Anglo-SaXon "col," signifying
black. The dogs which looked after
these sheep were collie dogs, which in
time became shortened to "collies y
hence the name which the sheep
dog now bears.

SaEaciOuS Kitty.

A good cat story, illustrating the
sagacity of the felines. is told by u gen.
tleman who saw the occurrence. A
cat saw II large rat run out from under
q stable and seek shelter in woodpile
Tommy followed his ratship and tried
to reach him, but could not do do.
Finding that his efforts were in vain,
Tommy scratched his head and hit
upon On idea. Leaving the woodpile,
he went off short distance, informed
another cat of what was up, and the
two went back to the woodpile. Tom
my No. stationed No. 2 at the place
where the rat had entered the wood
pile. while he climbed upon the wood
and began scratching. This frightened
the rat and out he ran into the chops
of Tommy No. 2. who had been ex'
pecting such an occurrence. -Bango,

No More Coiortng pipes,

Coloring meerschaums has gone out
OF fashion. Years ago it was quite a
fad, but so much trouble was required
to keep q meerschaum in good condi-
ton that most smokers discarded their
pipes and took to cigars. A meer-
schaum, to be properly colored. needs
as much attention as Il baby. 1t must
not get too hot for then the wax coat
ing is driven out and the pipe does not
take proper color; it must not get too
cold nor cool off too suddenly, or it
will crack; you must not touch it with
your fingers, nor smoke it too stead
lily, nor keep cover on it while using
it. for in either case it is spoiled. Men,
as a rule do not smoke for the pleas
ure Of coloring pipe, but for the COM
fort they get from the habit, and SO
the meerschaum has given way.

Another Utilization OF Waste,

Plate glass as is well known, is
ground by means of quartz and moved
over the surface under the iron-faced
wooden plates. The sand is soon worn
out, when it contains about Is per cent
OF glass particles and 3 per cent Of
iron. This mixture has been hitherto
discarded as worthless material, but is
now formed into valuable bricks by
drying, pressing into molds, and sub
jecting to high temperature. These
bricks have specific gravity Of LIS,
resist frost. and are not attacked by
acids. They are perfectly white. but
the mixture of suitable materials with
the sand will give enamcled bricks OF
beautiful colors.

Homemad. Bias Gets.

There is way to make good baskets
at home and pretty and cheap, too,
out of corn husks-thick outer husks
for strong baskets. and for
lighter and finer ones the white
inner parts. These must be wrapped
for an hour or so in a damp towel. and
then cut into strips Of equal width.
Make an ordinary braid with six or
more strips. which may be doubled,
or even trebled. for greater strength.
Thread needle with heavy. waxed
lined thread, and having dampened
the braid, form it into an oval, five or
six inches long and three wide, for the
bottom of the basket, and sew the adj
joining edges Of the brad together,
as in a straw hat but don't overlap
them. Go on coiling and stitching for
the sides Of the basket widening the
opening until the basket is deep
enough.
The handles are made OF heavy,
three stranded braid. which is sewed
all around the top of the basket, just
inside. and Topped at the middle oil
each side.
For ornament wind the handles with
gay colored ribbon or braid, put box
plating Of the same around the TOT
and work a bunch OF flowers on one
side In bright worsteds. with Ions
stitches. The opposite side may have

Physicians Have Found Out

That a contamination and foreign element in the
blood, developed by indigestion, is the cause of
rheumatism. This settles upon the sensitive
sub-cutaneous covering OF the muscles and liga-
mcnts of the joints, causing constant and shifting
pain, and aggravating as q calcareous, chalky
deposits which produces stiffness and distortion
of the joints. No fact, which experience has
demonstrated in regard to Hostettcrs Stomach
Bters, has stronger evidence to support than this.
namely, that this medicine OF comprehensive
uses checks the formidable and atrocious disease,
nor Is 1t less positively established that it Is
preferable to the poisons often used to arrest it,
since the medicine contains only salutary ingre-
dients. 1t is also signal remedy for malarial
fevers, constipation. dyspepsia kidney and blad-
der ailments, debility and other disorders See

MORE ABOUT ALUMINIUM.
The Wonderful Possibilities Of the Little. Known
Metal.

Metal.
Aluminium still promises to become
the ''metal OF the age" notwithstand-
ing the difficulties that have been met
in producing it. OF late it has been
made the subject OF numerous ana
valuable experiments. A prominent
French me!allurgist has been for sew
cral years conducting experiments with
the metal. and expresses it rs his be-
lief that il is destined to become one
OF the most useful of metals. displacing
even iron and steel. One of the exper-
iments which he has been conducting.
and which he has succeeded in bring
ing to n successful issue. is the plating
c! other metals with aluminium, and,
in view of the prominence in CONNER.

process and effect Of his system may

this method is very thorough; SO
thorough. indeed, that not only is a
coating of aluminium deposited on the
surface OF the iron or copper. but
much of the precious metal is actually
absorbed by the heated and expanded
iron or copper, SO that an actual alloy
is formed, which gradually shades of

be very great. This coating OF alumni
