,,rrc,AL TELEGRAM TO THE p1srAroH.i

MACON, April 1.-THE Pittsburg and
Cleveland ball clubs played their second
and last game here to-day. The contest if
such il can be called, was a wretched affair.
The Pittsburgers were not in it and they
didn't seem to care. Smith and Baldwin
were the pitchers, and the former was a
mark for the Clevelanders
Bierbaur, for Pittsburg, played a great
game, and Reilly only did moderate. The
Cleveland players hit the bail terrifically.
Both teams left this evening for Atlanta,
where thev play tomorrow. Score:

AN EXPERT ON TEA MAK1No.

A tea expert says that pound of tea
will furnish 300 cups of liquor if it be
made properly, but that the maximum
benefits of the leaf, both in the matter
of quality and quantity, are seldom en-
joyed because of the general ignorance
of what appears to be 30 simple process
as to require no care, the method Of
brewing. He says the tea leaves should
be put into earthen or agate ware pot
(never use metall and stand ON the back
of the stove until thoroughly warmed.
Then Kissing hot water which has been
freshly boiled should be poured in and
the pot should be placed at the back oil
the stove for ten minutes, where it will
keep hot but not boil At the expira-
ton of that time the tea will be perfect,
but if it is desired to keep it so the liquor
must be poured off into another vessel so
as to separate it from the leaves, which
after while would give off an astringent
element. In serving, the cups and the
cream should be warm and the cream
should be put into the cups before the
tea. The public are told not to smile at
these simple instructions, but to try
them and see if they do not get new
light on the question of getting the most
out of u cup of tea Chicago Nc,os.

THE UNDERSTANDABLE pARAso1.s.

Is it of use to try and say word about
the parasols3 They're as indescribable
as summer clouds and about as unsub-
stantial. They're very large this year,
and they have cloissonne handles most
dclicately enameled. Some are egg
shaped and some flare quite like UNI
brellas; these statements are more or less
prosy and definite, but when it comes to
the coverings then toss up gauze and
jewels and imagine them floating in air.
Clear yellow crepe is one example, en-
broidered in gold boss with daisies, with
ruches of crepe festooned from point to
point, and deep, double crepe flounces
depending. Crepe rosettcs bury the stick
point where it projects from the canopy.
White gauze is another gossamer ex-
ample. A broad gold band has been
woven in tinscl threads into the sub
stance, and this circles it in festoons
caught up with square bows and
ends. From point to point droop lace
flounces.
A third canopy is of pale lavender
crepe. The violets with which it is
dotted have cost many weary week in
their embroidery. Crepe ruches run
down each rib and about the circle in
deep Vandyke pointings. Below the
ruchcs are triple crepe flouncings.-Chi-

cHu1sNs AND cHuRNrNa.

OF all the different kinds of churns in
use in farmers houses, for small family
dairy, writes Mrs. w. II. Webster, give
the preference to tho good old-fashioned
dash churn. 1t is easily managed ID
every way, not hard to work in churn,
ing, md takes up but very little room.
You can easily raise the lid and look in
to it ut any time to see how matters are
progressing, the butter is easily gathered
and taken out when it comes, and the
churn is easily cleaned afterwards. In
winter the mistake is often made of
keeping the cream SO long that it be-.
comes bitter before it is churned. I like
to have the cream a little bit sour, and
set it in warm place long enough for it
to taste slightly acid before l churn it,
but in q cold climate it won't do to keep
it long enough to sour naturally, unless
one is willing to run the risk OF having a
bitter taste in the butter. Butter that
comes in reasonable time will be much
better than that which is churncd for
hours, as is sometimes the case. This
delay in coming believe is frcquetly
caused by keeping the cream where it is
hot and cold by turns, and also keeping
it too long. The churning should be
regular-not fast and then slow, and
should be kept up without long inter
missions until it is done.-M6to YorA

How the World Appears to the Lowe,
Animals.

In addition to the organs of hearing,
touch and smell, Sir John Lubbock has
found upon the antenne of insects Ger.
tain organs that seem to be connected
with senses that we know nothing
about.
Experiments made upon certain fresh
water crustaccans show that they are
sensible to sounds corresponding to more
than 40, 600 vibrations per second Sounds
that we cannot hear, and to ultraviolet
rays that we cannot perceive. Now all
the rays that we can perceive appear to
us with definite colors, and it should be
the same with these animals; so that it
is probable that they see colors that are
unknown TO us and that are as different
from those that we are familiar with rs
red is different from yellow or green
from violet. 1t would result from this
that natural light, which seems white to
us, would appear colored to them, and
that the aspect of nature would be en-.
tirely different to them from what it is
to us: 1t is possible, therefore, that to
certain animals nature is full of sounds.

idea of.-Seientfc american.

Says the Chicago Necs: 'Thcrc is
much comment on the discovery that
more men relatively are employed in the
Ohio schools than in those Of any other
Northern State. On the contrary,
Massachusetts leads in the proportion OF
women teachers. Some persons are dis
posed to think that the situation in Ohio
is not creditable to the State. But there
is one fact which cannot be disputed,
and that is that the Ohio schools in every
worthy regard compare. favorably with
those of Massachusetts or any other
State in the Union.

LIGHTS.

a little lamp can send but brief and feeble
ray,
The great lights bravely beam, apd their
radiance far away
Is the comfort of the nations and the further
ancc Of the day.
All men remember when the great lights
were lit,
The day is kept in honor, and they nnmo it
us they sit
And watch the guiding ham?, thanking and
blessiugit.
But the small and struggling lights-~hich n
breath of storm might kill
Each fain to light continent, but doomed
to smallness still,
Is there no one to praise them for their
service of good will?
Yes, one, the Lord of all who is tho source
of light,
he sees them where they burn in tho black
ness of Earth's night.
And the larger and tho less alike are pre-
cious in His sight.
He is the secret source by which their flames
are fed,
From the bencon's wide, white roy which
flashes overhead,
To the intermittent ray which tho half
spent tapers shed;
And to each he says, "well done" which has
bravcly sought to burn.
And when the dawn ariseth, and each IS
quenched in turn,
Absorbed into the pcrfcct div for which
pure spirits yearn;
Each little flame that struggled to make
the night more fair
Shall find its place in Paradise and burn in
heavenly air,
And the Father of all Lights shall be its well
come there.

WASHING wAsu.snKs.

Wash silks may be washed successfully,
although many dismal failures have made
it doubted. They must not certainly be
washed in the tub with other things. A
strong warm suds made with any white
soap comes first; the silk must be rubbed
very lightly; hot water, washing powers
and alkali soups IRE fetal to the beauty
of wash silks. Thorough rinsing in
tcpid water, followed by further rinsing
in cold water with a little vinegar in it,
makes the wash silks as good as new.
With these directions for laundress, no
one need hesitate to follow where fancy
leads in choosing wash silks for blouses,
which will be worn more than ever next
summer.-Boston Transcript.

"that even the monster and prosecutor.
Nero, had q friend. When his nurse.
Eclogue, died she uttered a last desire
that her ashes be inferred in the same
tomb as Nero's. The request was granted,
and now after about eighteen centuries,
the spot where the ashes of the wicked
Emperor and the faithful nurse repose
has been uncovered. The man who at.
tracted such devotion and affection could
not have been entirely devoid of mani,
qualities. There must have been a side
to his character that history has failed
to delineate. Bad as he was, it seem,
mat N one breast he inspired a love ani
fidelity that outlasted his disrraceful
downfall and death. This but goes to
illustrate the assertion often made tina,
perhaps no man, however bad, is with.
cet redeeming trait of character; thu,
IN every heart there is some chord re
sponsiye to the touch Of kindness anc

wonderfully tame There is craze just

educated pipers, and Green, of Covent
Garden, gets from fifty to sixty dollars
for an accomplished bird. Teaching
the dear little things is work requiring
much patience. They are arranged in
classes, as it were, each set learning a
particular tune. They are kept in
dim light, and whistled to over and over
again by someone with perfectly cor
rect ear; for the bird musicians, not be-

notes as readily as right ones. 1t is
pretty to see them with their sleek little
black heads on one side listening to their
teacher as he trills away to them. 1t is
still prettier to hear them try over their
lesson just like a little human scholar,
falteringly at first, and gradually be-

they pipe an air from the "Mlkado,' 81 or
"Carmen up to Date" as correctly as,
and indefinitely more sweetly than their

1t sounds like natures own melody, and

TuDerculine is the name by which DR..
Koch's remedy is now to be called instead
OF Kochine rs heretofore. This is n
sensible name, comments the Chicago
Post, provided the anti-tuberculosis
remedy proves to be the specific it is
claimed to be. Scientists have an un.
usual fondness for perpctuating their
names in their discoveries, but the
greater the discovery aud the discoyerer
the less need for such an exhibit of
vanity. Even the name of HerschcI was
dropped for that of Uranus to bring the
names Of the planets into desirable
conformity in NEUROLOGICAL nomen-
,clature. As to Tuberculine, it is to be
hoped that the adoption OF the new name
will Danish the misleading and incorrect
name "lymph" by which the remedy has
heretofore been designated.

Kansas Philosophy.

A gossip is always willing to be n
liar.
No man wants to be religious as bad
rs he don't want to be.
The best friend a man has is the
friend who makes him the least trouble.
Deal in flattery if you would learn
how few people are not subject to
vanity.
The reason for doing bad thing is
never as good as the reason for not
doing it.
When the average man prays for his
nelghbor, the Lord hears lots of gossip.
Every dollars worth of prohibited
fun you have costs two dollars in repent
ance.
Stand guard over your thoughts, that
they may not make you the prisoner of
feeble friend.
Give man that which he particu-
lnrly longs for, and in five minutes he
longs for something else
So many girls of sixteen who imagine
they are dying of broken hearts, can
scarcely wait until the dinner bell
rings.
There is q sound foundation for the
doctrine of forgiveness. If man robs
you, it is cheaper to forgive him than to
go to law. If man owes hundred
dollars, it will cost you more than that
to collect it.-AtchisO7l Globe

sew METHOD or wAy1No THE HA1n.

There is q new method of waving the
hair at the side, by which it will remain
in undulations for two or three weeks.
Tiny little curls and combs can be cum
ningly inserted wherever they are re-
quired, aud for those who prefer to wave
their hair themselves, there is q clever
contrivancc, by which tress is twisted
between wires, and kept firmly in place
until the desired effect is produced. In
Paris the coiffurcs are worn fat to the
head and to meet the wants of those who
tend to follow the coming fashion of the
catogan, M. Sobocinski has introduced a
new twist for the back of the head,
which ends at the nape of the neck in
curls. This is n long strand of hair
which, to be manipulated, is held in. the
centre, the two ends intertwisted, and
the curled points slipped through the
loop at the top. This produces pretty
effect, and it can be also formed into a
true lovers knot.-Nc,o York World.
