The alleged musical farce called I" l2 p. NJ"
which was presented last night at the bijou
Theatre, is miserable rubbish from beginning

bush TO say It. An exceedingly good.nstured
audience sat in glum surprise and seemed to
bc wondering how any manager who had
grown up In q civilized community could
allow such sn invertebrate efYort to Be seen
upon his stage. Tie name OF the author OF
the piece is not known. Lucky man He eau
stay In hiding ana escape the Just indignation
Of furious public.
Miss Jennie Yeamans was the star Of the
occasion, and for some occult reason she was
designated upon the programme as
"Amcricas comediennc." She has done
clever work in her day, and after seeing her
admirably artistic performance Of June in

she could descend to such witless afYair as

About Airing Beds.

housekeeper often errs through her very
thoroughness She will shake the sheets,
blan4ets, &C., and hang them ont Of tie VIM
dow and over chairs, having them all exposed
as much as possible TO the direct rays OF the
sun and in the strongest breeze and this is
just what should be done. Then the pillows
will be taken up and shaken and thumped
until they are soft and fluny ana placed in
the very sunniest spot, and this is all wrong.
The sun will draw the oil from tho feathers,
and the pillows will have rancid, disagreea-

Hints for Dishwoshers.

Tho woman who can ind any way Of mar.
ing dishwashing, II not pleasant task, a.
least less disagreeable one than It Is now,
should be canonized by her grateful sisters.
One woman, who has spent much time in ex-
perimenting in this branch OF household
labor, makes the following suggestions:
Nothing is better for cleaning greasy
dishes, especially cooking pans and kettles,
than an old whisk.broom. 1t removes tho
tenacious particles that have fastened to tho
kettles and spiders much better than knife
or an iron dishcloth. 1t is invaluable for
cleaning grsters. To keep the hands from
getting hard and chapped after dishwasning
rub them with cider vinegar. Clear lemon
Juice is also excellent"
