POpe's villa for Sale.

Another historic house is in the mar
ket. This is Pope's villa, Twickenham
which once belonged to the great poet
and was the scene wherein he composed
many of his works. 1t has been occu'
pied for nearly quarter of century
by Mr.. Henry Labouchere, M. P, and
was some years ago associated with the
performance of "A Midsummer Nights
Dream" by a company of amateurs and
professionals, which formed quite an
epoch in the history of pastoral plays.
The grounds are extensive and run
down to the rivers edge. The show
place in them is the grotto which is
supposed to have been Pope's favorite
resort. The villa is prettily situated in
a nest of trees and faces toward Ham
house, the residence of the Earl of by.

the 18th of November, 1891, the day upon
which he was born, is indelibly marked
in the memory of all the fashionable
world of New York. The birth of this
infant was thought to be of sufficient i'm
portance to telegraph all over the coun-
try. The advent of the heir to duke
dom would hardly receive such attention
in England. Socially the Astor family
is the most prominent in New York and
their children are trained from their

they get them checked and do their pur-

Care of the Ears.

Much misdirected energy is expended
by careful people in the effort to keep
clean the innocent orifice of the organ
of hearing.
Serious injury often results to the del
icate mucous membrane lining the canal
of the ears from the pushing of wash
cloths, sponges and the like inside the
delicate canal. Nothing should ever be
pushed inside the canals of the ears.
The cerumen or wax which is normally
found there should not be removed until
it can be washed away with ordinary
washing; this should not include a
doubling or twisting of the end of
washcloth for the purpose of pushing it
inside the auditory canal.
1t is common enough to find those who
use pins, hairpins and other hard bodies
to remove the normal secretion of the
ear from the canal. A physician is the
only one who should put into the ear
anything so hard as possibly to injure
its delicate structure. IL there is any
thing abnormal about the quantity or
quality of the natural secretion physi-
clan should be consulted and his advice
followed.
No one should attempt himself to treat
any supposed or real case OF impacted or
hardened cerumen. Efforts in this di-
rection have been extremely harmful to
the tympanum and delicate bones of the
ears. Such attempts have also brought
on the dreaded condition-which was
before only a supposed one-by massing
the cerumen at narrowed point of the
canal Youths Companion.

A Timely Suggestion for Bright Women.

II wonder, commented busy house
keeper recently, that this age of special
service has not evolved an occupation of
fruit preserving by the day. There are
plenty of women who will put up your
fruit for you at their own places, furnish
ing everything, but the rates are very
high, and the fruit sold at the women's
exchanges is of superior quality and su-
perior price too. have a family of
growing boys, and like to provide
plenty of simply prepared preserved
fruits and jellies for the enormous
sweet tooth which their triple capaci-
ties evolve; but l have not the time nor
the strength to do it myself, and l can
not afford to get it from present sources
of supply.
1T seems to me there ought to be
women, housekeepers themselves, who
would be glad to go into kitchen for
So or $3.50 a day and put up fruit. They
could have assistance in preparing the
fruit, and one day would do the currant
jelly, another can small berries, and so
on; but such do not exist, so far as

A HAPPY NEW YEAR

Street Car Superintendent Read Surprised
Auerbaeh's Treat-Miss Simmons' Supper

Noise and frolic, besides the solemn SER
vices announced to take place in THE
HERALD yesterday, ushered In the New
Year. Tokens of esteem also pas sed be-
tween friends, employers and employees,
some of them Of very substantial worth.
The confidence and esteem in which some
men hold their employees was illustrated
last evening by MIR. John H. Rumel, ir.,
the county recorder Of this county. Just
before his eleven employees departed from
the Office he presented each with substan-
tial purse of money, accompanied by an
elegant New Years card, wishing them
prosperity and long life Of happiness.
Mr.. Rumeus heart Is as large as his body,
and his employees are not backward in
saying that his generosity is not con-
fined to the original mayors entry, but ex-
tends TO the surrounding townships. Ev-
erything works to perfection in the record
er's Office, and Mr.. Rumel can feel proud of
it, while his employees are glad Of it, and
the people rest easy, knowing that their
titles are properly handled.

The Boys Of the Street Car Line Tender Sup
erintendent Read Watch and Chain.
One of the greatest surprises of his life
fell at the door of w. p. Read, superin-
tendent Of the Salt Lake City Street Rail
way company, yesterday. He was notified
that committee of the employees would
be at his office at o'clock, snd at that
hour ten or a dozen men. headed by the
veteran railroader, George G. Bywater,
fled into the room. Visions of an impenG-
ing strike arose before MIR. Reads mind.
and he greeted the incomers with bow
half distrustful, half polite. Without
giving him q chance to voice his senti-
ments, Mr.. Bywater at once fired the fol-
lowing charge blank into his face:
SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 81, 1891.
Superintendent W. P. Read.
1t IS the pleasure of the employees of the sew

But when the leap year came
He noticed, TO his great surprise,
She got there just the same.

And TO her house he ran,
TO find that when he reached her door

Few Words From the Pen of Edith Ses-
sions Upper.


Has it occurred to you, ladies, that 1892 is
leap year!
Ring out wild bells to the wild sky and
tell each escairing maid that her hour ap-
proaches. Not for long will she be forced
to pine in solitude, blush unseen and waste
her sweetness on the desert cir. Her day
is coming-the hour in which she can
corner the young man of her choice and
tell him that life without him will be void,
no wiling wilderness. She can soothe his
agitation, quiet his fluttering heart, press
his manly form in her arms and kiss him
smack on the mouth even If he should re-
sist.
Ring out, wild bells, and tell the couuet-
fish widow TO lay in an extra stock OF war
paint and tomahawks, for her hour is, too,
at hand. Never backward about manifest
ing by gentle look, smile or sigh her pre-
ferences, she will at her perihelion during
1892. And vain will be the attempt of man
TO escape from the sunshine Of her affec-
ton. He who trusts himself in the society
Of some mans relict in leap year is lost
Ring out wild bells, and tell those who
nave lost even the semblsnce of hope
those ancient virgins who have looked
through many weary year for the man TO
come and have ever been disappointed
tnat nope is not DEAD even Tor them; that
the door of opportunity will soon be ajar
and they alone will be TO blame if they en-
ter not, aye, and shut and barricade it be-
hind them.
