How to wiring Hot we. rl.nn.l..

Not long since, had occasion to usa
hot fiannels for sprained ankle, but how
to wiring them dry without scalding my
hand was problem.
Finally thought of putting them in
side of dry towel, and. taking hold OF
the ends of this towel, I wrung out the
flannels without any difficulty.
Keeping them in the towel was an easy
way of carrying them to the patient, and
with dry bandages, and over these news
papers, they kept warm for long time.
Since trying the above. found in
Babyhood a description of stickwringer
that should be found in every home. I
give it in the writer's own words.
Take two rounds Of an old chair, or
other similar pieces Of hard wood. for
handles. Out OF piece of bedticking
make square bag large enough to hold q
good sized piece of flannel cloth.
Hem the sides of the bag and run the
sticks through these hens.
You now have wringer in which, by
twisting the sticks, you can wiring fam
nels practically dry out of boiling water.
By having two or three cloths one can
be kept in the wringer, and be in readi-
ness at any moment, when it is desired
to change it for the one last applied.

Vanity,

The possessor Of highly cultivated
mental powers and laboriously acquired
knowledge may be pardoned if he be a lit.
tie vain Of his achievements in his case
there is some reason for vanity; but as
rule this fault Of character is unpardon-
able, because men and women almost in.
variably value themselves for the gift
which comes by nature, as swiftnesa
comes to the horse or grace to the deer !;
:hey are vain of qualities for the posses.
sion of which they are not in the small.
est degree deserving of praise. From
cne point of view, of course. the vain
man is right. The wonder and bloom
Of the world" Is all free gift, and not OF
any creatures earning. and is infinitely
more wonderful and more beautiful than
anything for which man can take credit.
The plumage on which the peacock
prides himself. the 1.-the PAGES Of the
aorse, the exquisite note Of the black
bird, the strength Of the elephant, are
aone of them less at to be the subjects OF
osrsopal vanity than the beauty of
woman or the agility and strength of
man; in other words. they are none Of
them fit at all to be the subject Of rea.
sonable vanity. But yet these qualities
are all intrinsically far more wonderful
and beautiful than anything for which il
is possible in reason to take credit. A
man is quite justified in admiring his
own higher gifts II he does not think any
.,etter Of himself for possessing them,
put only for using them with reverence
and certain amount Of surprise and
gratitude that they should have been en-.
trusted to his care. There are people
who take credit to themselves even for
the mountains and rivers amidst which
they live. the sunsets which they are
accustomed to behold; and although this
Is very absurd, 1t Is hardly more SO than
for woman to plume herself on her gift
Of beauty, ora man ON his giftof strength
or graces Of person or what weachieve
we have right to be vain; but no honor
IS due us for the gifts with which we are
lowered at birth.

through the ice, for the snow-prints of
She horses hoof were too fresh not to
tell the exact story of their wanderings,
and there was not an air-hole near them.
But towards noon, fisherman, who
had moored his "hut' at the further
end Of the bay, came into the village.
and told a story which set the tongues
Of the gossips wagging.
He said that the preceding night, hav-
ing his hut well in the shelter of big
snowbanlr, he had gone to rest;
that very early in the morning be-
tween two and three o'clock he had been
awakened by Alphonse Damiens, very
white in the face and Withholding
about the eyes, who offered him Eve
dollars to help him to get to the Cana
dian shore, and also gave him a two-dol-
lar bill for half-pint of whisky he
happened to have. That he did conduct
him over the frozen river to Queens
vile, which they reached with much
difficulty, as he had TO clear the way
in places with his axe. That Damiens
started off down q lane away from the
village as soon as he reached the shore,
and that he had seen nothing of him
since.
"Didn't say nawthin' about no acci-
dent?" asked James Dolman, who was
sitting on an inverted apple barrel IN
| the grocery store, the center Of a group
of admiring friends, all chewing tobac-
| CO and whiting sticks.
'sHe never said word about no acci-
dent to me-" the fisherman averred.
s'He seemed desp'rate anxious to get to
Canady, and ] thought he'd been in
some row with the constable an want

| mot as ! knows on. His boots an
pants was cut about bit. as was nat
raj after travelin' over them spiky
chunks o ice, but didn'tsee no bruises
on him."
"That's strange" Dolman exclaimed.
IAN did yer hear no noises afore he
come ter wake yer up?"
well, now You speak on it, think |
did. About half an hour, or maybe an
hour afore 'Phonse come TO my hut, !

| "Down by Breckenridges?'
"Aye, where the Glastonbury folks

nThet was two miles away from

had Just returned to the group after

"Du tell! Well, all can say is thet

What n Swell House Costs.

What does it cost TO keep up great
house? Everybody knows that 1t Is ex-
pensive; but not everybody was pre-
pared for the statements that were made
in an Enslish court recently in the mat
ter of the Earl OF Radnor and his pic
lures. 1t costs, IL appears, $65, 900 year
TO keep up Longford Castle and its de-
pendencies. But evon that large sum
seems inconsiderable when compared
with that OF the great nobleman who
once told Lord Esher that his household
expenses alone were 5000 n week. In
that case. probably two or three estab-
lishments were kept up: but even one
great country house will eat UP an enor-
nous sum Of money. II Is not the gate n
and drinking that does Il, as the ingenu-
Gus hater Of bloated aristocrats might
might imagine. Great numbers OF SER
wants have TO be Kept, and stables are
costly and the keeping up of the gar
dens and grounds is frightful source Of
expense.

prof. Gardner on Taxation.

Prof Gardner lectured at Brown Uni
versity last evening on Taxation F" In
the year ending Dec. 81 1890. he said, the
revenue of the State of Massachusetts
amounted to about $40 SOC. of which
80 per cent. came from an addition to the
general property tax assessed by the local
bodies. Seventeen per cent. came from
n tax OH the deposits i'm savings banks. rs
per cent. from tax on shares of corpora
lions other than banks, aud so on. IL
will be seen that Massachusetts, obtains
less than one-third OF her income from the
general property tax. In New Jersey
there is really no general property tax for
State purposes. the only tax Of that ma
ture levied for the state is n tax for school
purposes. equal in amount TO 50 per cap
ita OF children of school age the proceeds
OF the tax being redistributed among the
local bodies. so that the State really acts
simply as the agent for collection.
The State of Pennsylvania receives prac-
tically no portion of the revenue from ad-
ditional local taxes, but depends entirely
upon special taxes, the most important OF
which are corporation taxes in various
forms, not touching personal property at
all, relying wholly upon the taxation OF
real estate. The interesting points 60 no.
tice are the complete separation OF the
source Of revenue for the state aud for
local bodies aud the practical exemption
OF personal property from local taxation.

A Man Who Tried the Bogus Insurance
Dodge and Duped Loweiiites.
LOWELL, March 10.-The police have
been notified that man giving his name
as G. NJ. Clark has been claiming to rep
resent an insurance company with it's
home Office at III Church street, Hart
ford, Conn, the form of insurance paying
s25 per week in case of accident or disa-
bility.
He got $3.50 from Mrs. Lucinda r.
Barker, 1853 Moody street, and $3.50 from
Mrs. James Stratton, Ware street.
Neither of the parties have received any
insurance or heard from the man since.
Clark claimed that he lived at the corner
OF Moody and Tilden streets and gave
three bogus references.
He is described as having brown hair,
light blue eyes, brown mustache, big
dimple in his right cheek, front teeth
much decayed, about 35 years of age, and
wore dark coat and dark checked pants.
Mrs. Parker, in addition to her loss in

to subscribe for an alleged temperance
paper which she has not received.
