Things Useful to Know.

Scratches and bruises may be re-
moved from furniture by using the
kernel of walnut or butternut.
To make the eyebrows grow bet
ter rub common salt into them every
night before going to bed.
Clean white sheepskin rugs by
scrubbing them with soap or water,
drying thoroughly in the sun.
In washing black wool goods be-
fore making them over, use
five cents worth of soap bark to
pailful of water. Let it stand until
cold. Iron on the wrong side.
A very good and simple face tonic
is ten drops of benzoin to one of rose
water. Put a few drops into the
wash bowl when bathing the face.
Both will soften and whiten.
For Group, use flannel cloths wrung
out of very hot water and applied to
the throat and chest; cover with dry
ones, and renew with hot as soon as
the others commence to cool.
Unsightly marks caused by the
dripping of water in marble basins or
water-closet bowls may be removed
by rubbing with cloth OF old tooth
brush dipped in pulverized chalk OF
ammonia.-[ Good Housekeeping,

What Is American" SpeIllng2

What, then, do British writers
mean when they animadvert upon
american spelling? So far as 1
have been able to discover, the British
journalists object to certain minor
labor-saving improvements Of Ameri-
can photography, such as the dropping
of from almanack, the omission of e
from Wagon, and the like; and they
protest with double force, with all the
strength that in them lies, against the
substitution Of single for a double
] in such words as traveller, against
the substitution of an for C in such
words as defence, against the omission
Of from such words as
honour, and against the transposing of
the final two letters of such words as
theatre. The objection to american
spelling" may lie deeper than 1 have
here suggested, and it may have a
wider application but 1 have done
my best to state it fully and fairly as
have deduced it from a painful pc
rusal of many columns of exacerbated
British writing.
Now if have succeeded in stating
honestly the extent of the British
journalistic objections to "American
spelling" the unprecedented reader
may be moved to ask: 'Is this all {?
Are these few and slight and unim-
portant changes the cause of this
mighty commotion ?" One may agree
with Sainte Beuve in thinking that
"orthography is the beginning of lit
erature, without discovering in these
notifications from the Johnsonian
canon any cause for extreme disgust.
And since / have quoted Sainte
Beauve once, venture to cite him
again, and to take from the same let
ter of March 10, 1867, his suggestion
that ''if we write more correctly, let
it be to express especially honest feel
ings and just thoughts"
Feelings may be honest, though they
are violent, but irritation is not the
best frame of mind for just thinking.
The tenacity with which some of the
London newspapers are wont to de-
fend the accepted British photography
is perhaps due to feeling rather than
to thought. Lowell told us that es-
thetic hatred burnt nowadays with
as fierce flame as ever once theologi-
cal hatred; and any American who
chances to note the force and fervor
and the frequency of the objurgations
against american spelling" in the
columns of the Saturday Review, for
example, and of the Atheneum, may
find himself wondering as to the date
of the papal bull which declared the
infallity of contemporary British or,
biography, and as to the place where
the council of the Church was held al
which it was made an article of faith.

Practical Sayings.

If the oven should be too hot at any
time, place pan filled with water in
it, and the heat will be lessened.
To test the freshness of eggs, drop
them in dish of water, and if the
small end comes to the top they are
fresh.
To make pies or biscuit nice color,
moisten the top of them with little
sweet milk just before they are put
into the oven.
For iron rust, lay in kerosene oil
and let it remain some time. The oil
will loosen the rust so that it will come
off.
A tablespoonful of powdered borax
dissolved in the bath will prove very
invigorating, as well as soften the
water so that it will feel like velvet
To take oil out of carpets or wool
ems, put on buckwheat flour, and
brush it off very carefully into dust
pan. Keep on applying till all of the
grease has been absorbed.
Cut glass should be first thoroughly
washed and dried, then rubbed with
prepared chalk, using a soft brush,
and being careful not to neglect any
of the crevices. This will give it a
fine polish Good Housekeeping.

The following story comes from
Prisque, Isle county, Mich: "Mrs.
Shaw had laid the baby down in the
grass and returned to the house for
few moments when an enormous
eagle swooped down on the infant,
and sunk its talons into the little ones
flesh and clothing and took flight
with it. The mother heard her baby's
cry, and her shrieks brought the
father. Mr.. Shaw at once mounted a
horse, and, armed with a rifle, rode to
the shore of a nearby lake where he
knew there was an eagles eyrie in the
cliffs.
Shaw arrived in time to see two
eagles lowering above a crag of rock 4,
filling the air with their cries and
battling for possession of the baby that
lay high upon the cliff. Before the
father had reached the summit one of
the eagles had fallen to the ground,
while the other had again taken up
the child for another flight
Shaw fired and the bird and baby
fell into the water. The frantic
father plunged into the lake and
caught up the body, but the little one
was dead. He took it home with the
bodies of the two eagles, one of which
had been killed in the fight over the
prey.
