Good Boy.

A dozen feminine shoppers poured in
to Sixth avenue elevated car at
Fourteenth street the other afternoon.
There were seats enough for all bit
one, and three men were getting
ready to rise. A nine-year-old school
boy was too quick for them, and sur
rendered his seat with polite tip of his
cap. He was rewarded with smile,
and took his stand alone in the middle
of the floor. Presently the motion of
the car made him look up at the straps.
They were out of reach. sudden
lurch almost cost him his balance, and
he braced himself sideways. That
wouldn't do either, and he made an at
tempt to reach the straps. His hands
fell short by six inches and he braced
himself again, all the while with look
of such dignity and gravity that no.
body dared to insult him with an invita-
ton to sit on his lap. The women
watched him alphabetically, and man
said under his breath, "That's bully

seat was vacated and the little chap
popped into it without muscle of his
face showing the sigh of relief he gave.

TALKED TOO MUCH.
The Disastrous Experiences of an Educat-
ed Parrot.


ed Parrot.
Robert j. Burdette, the humorist, told
the following story in st. Louis: "There
was once highly educated parrot and
thoroughbred bulldog left in the same
room for short time. Poll who was
facetious bird, thought she would
have some fun, and broke out with
string of spirited EXPLANATIONS: Take
him old boyp Cotch him. Chew his ear
Off Grab him by the legp Take him,
take him! Shake the life out of him."
ETC. The bulldog jumped to his feet and
rushed around the room like mad, look
ing for something to lay his teeth into.
Finally he subsidized and lay down be-
fore the fire again. When he was fast
asleep Poll broke out again with Catch
him boy; take good hold this time
and other expressions commonly used
to encourage dogs in fight. Again the
dog rushed about the room. Not seeing
anything but the green bird upon the
perch, he thought he would just watch
him bit, SO he lay down on the rug
once more, but kept an eye open, and
when Poll started in on his third round
he made lunge for him and pulled
all his tail feathers out and almost
killed poor Poll When at last he es-
capped to his perch the bulldog lay
down, and while he was picking out the
green feathers from between his teeth
Poll spoke up in a subdued tone Of
voice and said: II know what is the
matter with mel talk too much. -

to suggest some occupation that would
agree with his wife's impression of the
stranger.
"Never, never" she protested. "a
man with such heavenly expression
couldn't content himself with money

Care of the Wardrobe.

Most housekeepers like to have the
family wardrobe always neat and clean,
and where there is a large family it is
not an easy task Children should be
dressed, as far as possible, in washable
goods. The pretty lawns, ginghams,
chambreys, cheviots and percales afford
so great variety of quality and color.
Their heavier woolens are what need
the special care, for these, If washed
often, soon shrink wofully, and most
children grow out of their clothing fast
enough without any help from shrink
ing. In looking over the clothes, where
grease spots are found, take basin OF
clear cold water, into which put few
drops of ammonia, enough to make the
water feel soft and make the hands
smart little. Use flannel cloth wet
with the water, rub the cloth briskly
until the grease has disappeared, rinse
with clear water and press when slight
ly damp. This will also remove the
shiny look from black coat collars,
seams, ETC., but if the whole coat needs
cleaning, use good strong coffee, with a
few drops of ammonia. Mems light
clothes, if sponged this way, will look
better than if washed and will not
shrink. Home.

Plenty of Sleep.

1t is all very well to commend get
ting up early in the morning. 1t would
be difficult to exaggerate either the
pleasures or the advantages afforded by
early rising. But to rise early one must
retire early. A plenty of sleep is one
of the first requisites of health. Fevers
and other diseases are often occasioned
by excessive fatigue. A person should
sleep enough to get thoroughly rested.
For some cause, sleep in the early part
of the night seems to be more refresh
ing than sleep for the same number of
hours toward morning. Unfortunately
modern social habits are tending to re-
verse the order of nature, turning day
into night and night into day. This is
very destructive to the beauty as well
as the health of our American girls. 1t
has been recommended that when a
lady is going to attend late party-and
they are all late nowadays-she should
sleep several hours the day previous. 1t
is asserted that the marvellous beauty
of some of the middle-aged women of
England has been preserved amid all
the designations of fashionable society
In this way.-N. Y. Ledger.

following street-car episode witnessed
recently:

down in the heart of the city about
dusk, and, as usual, there were no seats
left. took position near the rear
door. At the next corner two young
women got in. They were bright look

possessing in appearance, but she seem

typewriter all day long perhaps.
Every man seated in that car save two

newspapers were each huddled up like
ball, almost, and had their hats pull
ed down over their eyes and pretended
to be asleep.
"a small newsboy squeezed himself
through the crowd on the platform and
cried out his evening papers with poor
success. On his way out he was stopped
by one of the young womcn-the pre-
possessing one. Her face lighted up as
by some bright idea. She whispered
something hurriedly to her friend.
"I'll dare you to do it," replied the
latter.
"'A1l right; I'm not afraid. Here,
boy, give me two papers. Give me the

said eagerly.
"Then, in perfectly self-possessed
and matter-of-fact manner she walked

A Noted Bear Skin.

1t is said that Mr.. Jarvis, of Kansas
City, has bear skin, used as rug,
twelve feet long by ten feet wide, not
counting the head, tail or legs, all of
which are attached and appear as nat
ural almost as life. The bear, black
grizzly, was killed about two years
since on Bear Lake in Utah and weighed
2,2sO pounds. 1t is the largest bear
skin in the country and probably in the
world. 1t was borrowed to grace the
banquet in honor of Stanley, the Afri-
can explorer in London, and subse-
quently served as rug on which a
luncheon was given to Rt. Hon. William

the door and entered. Aunt Hannah
sat placidly before the fire reading her

"Wha-whar's dinner, HannahP" he

"In de pantry" replied Aunt Hannah,

his family were obliged to make their
Sunday dinner off bread and cheese and
cold boiled parsnips which they found
laid out on the pantry shelf.

BLACklNG STOVES.
How TO DO the Job Thoroughly and With
Little Labor.

Every good housekeeper dislikes to
see a grimy stove, yet often breads
equally the grimy hand acquired in the
process of backing A pair of thick
gloves is, of course, necessary part of
the outfit of any woman who does
kitchen work, and yet desires, as she
should to keep her hands dainty. AS
rule, far too much backing is used on
stoves. A cake of backing, such as is
sold for eight cents, ought to last year
for backing one stove. If more black
ing is used, it will not be rubbed into
the surface of the stove as it should be,
but remain as fine dust, to be after
ward blown about the kitchen and
cause a generally grimy appearance, so
often seen in uncared-for kitchens. A
fresh coat of black should not be ap-
piled oftener than once a month, when
the fiues should also be cleaned out and
the interior of the stove thoroughly
brushed out. Before putting on new
backing, tie old backing should be
washed off. The new coat must now
be applied and the stove thoroughly
uolished
The edges of the stoves, if they are of
polished iron, should not be BACKED,
but cleaned like a steel knife, with
sapolio or briclS-dust The nickel knobs
and other nickel parts of the stove must
be rubbed bright with chamois skin
or old shrunken flannel. An ordinary
paint and whiting brush is one of the
best things with which to apply black
ing to stove. A stiff brush, such as is
used for this purpose, is the best brush
for polishing. During the month polish
the stove with the polishing brush each
morning, just after kindling the fire.
Keep an old cloth always on hand in
cooking, to rub off any grease spot as
soon as it occurs. If the spots are OBJ
stinate, few drops of kerosene oil put
on the stove cloth will remove them.
The ground edges and nickel work of
the stove should be rubbed off at least
once week, besides the monthly clean
ing when the stove is blacked.-Boston

AN ECONOMICAL WOMAN.
Her Ingenious Scheme for Getting Rid Of
Visitors.

Aunt Betsey Hicks, a New England
woman who had been left widow aft
or few years of married life carried
on her late husbands farm with good
deal of ability, but with such close econ
omy that her saving devices grew fam
GUS in the country round about.
Next to her economy of provisions,
her economy of firewood was perhaps
her chief concern. At one time sister
Of her late husband, from down coun-

allure was as Mrs. Hicks usually kept
it.

exclaim, 81 should think you kept it

"That ere pesky thermometers to

Then she turned over the stick of wood
in the sheet-iron stove, while her guest
walked up and down the room with her
hands thrust up the sleeves of her
dress.
The visitor remained at Aunt Betsey's
for several days, however,in spite of the
choked-up thermometer, spending much
of her time in bed, or watching chance
to smuggle a stick into the stove when
her hostess was out of the room.
Late one afternoon she happened to
go out into the woodshed, and found
Aunt Betsey there, with an old shawl
wrapped around her shoulders and a
stick in her hand, engaged in violently
stirring something in large tin can. A
strong smell of petroleum filled the air.
