'"Tea leaves,a are the best thing to use IN
sweeping carpets. This is my belief after
trying various other things. Theybrghten
the carpet keep down dust, and can be
swept up clean. My experience with salt
is that it is impossible to sweep it all up,
and after it has been used for some time
especially on Brussels, it gets into the car
pet and keeps it damp, so that on damp
days and when a room is shut up there
comes to be distinctly unpleasant odor.
1t also r1sts metal castors on the furniture.
The tea leaves should not be used very wet
or on carpets having very light colored
grounds, rs they are liable to stain th>!se. !"

LONDON. April THE lady to whom
Mr. Parpell is said to have been privately
married since the O'Shea divorce suit Is
the eldest daughter of Mrs. O'Shea. The
extreme privacy with which the ceremony
was performed is attributed to the TACT
that the young lady is ward IN chancery
Although she is q years of age the mar
rage could not be lawfully solemnized
without the consent of the court, and by
bis action Mr.. Parnell lays himself open
to prosecution. Several Parnelllte mem
bers of the house of commons affect to be-
lieve. although they deny any knowledge
of the facts, that Mr.. Psrnell never had
unlawful commerce with Mrs. OShea;
and that his secret visits to the home or
meeting the daughter, whom he married
with the consent of her mother, but IN
known to her father. Other ParneIlltes,
who are supposed to know the truth or the
matter, when questioned in regard TO the
marriage declared their ignorance or the
whole affair Capt O'Shea's friends treat
the story as a stupid canard.
LONDON, April 7-The relations Of Mr..
Parnell to Mrs. O'Shea have been rendered
more mysterious than ever by the recent
reports No declaration has yet been
made bv Mr.. Parnell himself, nor by any
person authorized to speak for either OF
the parties concerned that they are TO be
married when the divorce is made abso-
lutte. That period is now near at hand,
and the friends of both are anxious that
the ambiguous situation should be cleared
up. The state of affairs has led TO the
springing up of crop of rumors damag-
ing to the regulations of both. Various
stories, with more or less foundation. cul-
minated in the report that the marriage
with Mrs. O'Shea would not take place, as
Mr. Parnell had already been married to
another lady Astonishment was increased
today by the rumor that the lady in cues
tion is daughter of Mrs. O'Shea, and
that the marriage took place in secret, be-
cause among other reasons, the young
lady was ward in chancery. The latter
story spread rapidly in the lobbies of the
house of commons today, and is eagerly
and variously discussed but it finds few
believers.

An amusing anecdote is related of Rob
ert Browning as regards the uses of the
Browning societies. A society had met,
and the passage under discussion was taken
from "Childe Roland to the dark tower
came" The passage was most obscure,
and each side waxed warm in advocating
their own view. To calm the storm, the
president Of the society gave notice that he
would write to Mr.. Browning himself. AT
the next meeting, amid the greatest ex-
element, the president announced that he
had received the following reply:

but then what would be the use of the

the sole difference between the Missis-
