A Misprint, but 1t Did It's Work.

A member of one of the foreign legations
here has splendid action against the edi-
tor of that "hlue book" of Washington So
cial life, the Congressional Directory"
By bad blunder in that usually correct
publication he has suffered the loss of a
good dinner, a chance of delightful firta-
tion with beautiful girl and perhaps
something more serious. 1t seems that
the niece Of certain senator was visiting
in Washington and was assisting her aunt
in receiving when handsome young diplo-
mat called. The young woman, who is an
accomplished linguist, singled him out
among the throng that filled the drawing
room for her special prize, chatted easily
with him in his own language and proved
so thoroughly entertaining that the young
man completely lost track of time. A
merely formal call merged into a cozy tete-
a-tete. The fascination appeared to be mu-
tual, and for the next two days the house
hold was entertained by a song of praise
for the agreeable foreigner
The senator gave dinner in honor Of
his niece and requested her to choose whom
he should invite as her escort. She select
ed the diplomat, and The Congressional
rank and the proper spelling of his name,
when it was found that his name was pre-
ceded by the fatal asterisk, which dis
closed the appalling information that his
wife accompanied him. The party was
made up and another woman could not be
invited, neither could he be invited with
out his wife, so he was dropped from fur
ther consideration after the bestowal by
the senator of few anathemas upon
'those dangerous foreign fiirts."
Another man was invited to take his
place who proved to be bore and made
himself entirely hateful in the eyes of the
fair young charmer by disclosing the fact
in conversation that it was all mistake
and the fascinating diplomat was not mar.
ried at all. But this information came toe
late; the visit was up, the, opportunity
gone, and two hearts of different national
ities that might have beaten as one under
one flag are. separated forever, all because
Of misplaced asterisk.-Cor Chicago

The Care Of Lamns.


Granted cleanliness and ordinary care,
there can be no accident To begin with,
the lamp should be trimmed and filled
with oil in the morning every day. Once
week the oil container should be thorough
ly emptied out and the small amount of
dirty oil thrown away. Next see that the
burner is clean. Whenever the lamp burns
badly this should be at once looked to, as it
often is the cause. fthe burners are boiled
for few minutes in soda and water at reg
ular intervals there will be no difficulty in
the burning.
Next see that the wicks fit exactly. For
this purpose, when new wicks are required,
the lamp burner should always be sent.
Some people buy their wick by guess, a
most foolish plan, for not only must it be
of the right width, but also of the right
thickness, so as to allow of the oil reaching
the flame properly, and also to let the wick
be turned up or down. easily. Another
thing to ascertain is if the wick is worn
out. A lamp should have a fresh wick
every month at least. Be careful before
fitting in a new wick to see that the latter
is perfectly dry. 1t should be placed for
ten or fifteen minutes on hot plate before
fixing it in the lamp, so as to remove any
moisture.
1t is said that soaking the wicks in vine
gar, and then drying them thoroughly,
prevents all chance of smoking; but of this
there should be no fear where the lamp is
regularly and properly cleaned and trim
med. Be very careful in trimming the
wick not to let any of the charred part fall
into the burner. This is fruitful source
of trouble. Lamps with metal reservoirs
are undoubtedly safer than those of glass
or china, as the former, if upset, can be
picked up and replaced before the oil can
escape. Therefore, where children are
about, it is better to have only metal con-
tainers or else metal containers which can
be slipped into the china or glass stands
OF course the oil used must be of good
quality. There is no saving, but, on the
contrary, waste and some danger in poor
oil. Bad oil clogs the wick and the burn
er, besides giving off an unpleasant and
very dirty vapor.
One more hint Never turn down a
lamp, allowing it just to glimmer. 1t is
meant to burn with the flame at full
height, and when allowed to smolder in
this way it will either smoke or smell
possibly both-and most certainly heat
rapidly and become a distinct source Of
danger.-London Queen.

and far away from frosts and winds and
night they sing until the hills are flooded
with joy, and the skies drop music, and the
arches of pearl send back the echoes-"All

Behold the saints, beloved of God,
Washed are their robes in Jesus blood.
Brighter than angels, lol they shine,

They bore the cross and scorned the shame;
