Laid With Appropriate Exercises at the
County Farm Sunday Afsernoon-Mrs
Q, M. Mccullough Everhard, Hon. Geo
=. Baldwin and DIR. j +. Marohand the
Principal orators of the Day.
1t was most charitable and noble de-
termination of the county commissioners,
when they decided upon the erection of Il
County Inflrmary Hospital for Molly
Stark. Although the corner stone only
was laid Sunday, yet the building will
soon be completed and Stark countyites
may pride themselves with the addition of
another fine institution of which they may
feel proud and which will be deemed
money wisely expended and for good
purpose.
Tine County Inflrmary is located upon
one OF the finest and most picturesque
sites obtainable in this section of Ihe
county. Its obiects are manifold, to take
care of the inflrm and aged, the blind, the
insane and others. Tne buildings are
somewhat old, but they faithfully have
served their object and many a heart
driven to desperation by poverty has been
taken care OF and life's burden lightened
here.

Everhard, o member of the State Board

Hon. George E. Baldwin delivered the
address of the occasion. He was fervent
and spoke with vein ofsympAtby toward
the people who had been unfortunately
cast into the pathway Of reverses and
trial. He referred to the various public
charitable institutions erected. He spoke
of the attainment OF humanity In caring
for unfortunate people. Concluding
"My heart bleeds every time see one of

event of great interest to wheelmen. The
schedule includes 80 days racing covering
four months. New York, Brooklyn, Phila-

sIAlNINa FLOORS.
Suggestions For Doing 1t In a Satisfactory
Manner

Manner.
There are several ways of treating floor
OF any part Of it that Is not carpeted--viz,
staining, painting erameling and even pa
pering. Bit staining is perhaps the most
popular. 1t is a great economy to do this
ones self, as the principal cost lies in the
workman's charge With a little care it
can be nicely done, and the following direc.
tions will also assist the amateur workwo-
man;
Remove ali tacks and pound down pro-
jecting nailheads, plane of inequalities in
the floor and fill wide cracks with thin slips
of wood or some kind of composition. For
this there is nothing better than plaster of
paris whitening made into paste with
water l.. which glue has been dissolved, the
addition {. he glue preventing the plaster
from shrinL.-' cracking and falling down
between the boards. This mixture can be
colored 10 lit the tint of the boards If the
latter are go I'd disCoored and Is best ap-
piled with q p. knife The superfuous
stopping must ys removed before 1t has
quite set. Nail holes, etc, can be filled
with the same con- osition. 1t is as well
not to mix up too much Of the plaster at
time, and the solution should be kept warm
with n view to preventing 1t from setting
too soon after mixing.
When the floor Is quite smooth, the stain
must be applied with a large brush, great
care being taken to lay 1t on evenly. After
the stain is quite dry the stained portion
must be sized. The size should be fairly
hot, or it will set or CONCEAL on the floor in
stead Of soaking in, but it must not be too
hot, or else the grain in the boards will rise
up in small but unsightly ridges These
ridges, il not too deep, can be removed by
the use of fine glass paper. Finally, when
the size has completely dried, the floor must
be either waxed-i. G., polished with the ia
miliar beeswaX and turpentine-or var
nished. Two coats Of hard oak or copal
varnish will give fine and durable sur
face.
Now as to the stain to be used. The ia
vorite color for stained floor is dark
brown, aud vandyke brown mixed into
paste with water and thinned down with
strong solution Of alkali is much employed,
for the alkaIi washing soda is as good as
| anything, though potash or ammonia is
sometimes preferred. II ammonia is used,
the stain can be applied with q soft cloth or
sponge, but the fumes will be unpleasant.
! This stain is to be subsequently sized and
vanished. When the place to be stained Is
! only portion Of the floor around the walls,
the middle to be covered by carpet, it is
| an excellent plan before beginning the
work to mark out this space by drawing a
chalk line, being sure to make the space
| little wider than the area that will actually
be exposed to view, so that the edge Of the
| carpet may lap over upon it.

To make crescent3 similar TO those sold
in the shops as Vienna rolls roll the dough
into pieces about eight inches square and a
quarter of an inch thick. Cut this across
twice from corner to corner, which will
give four triangles each Of which will make
horn. Take the triangles one by one, pull
them out little to make them longer and
place the broad side nearest TO you, then
roll them lightly from this broad side.
Place them on a tin with the point upper
most and bend the points so that they
nearly meet, to make the roll crescent
shaped. Let these crescents rise n second
time, brush the surface with milk or white
of egg and bake. Sometimes in order to
keep the folds of dough distinct a little
butter is spread barely over the triangles
and then lightly Toured before the horns
are rolled.
To make twists roll out three strips Of
dough about the size of two fingers, plump
in the middle and rather pointed at each
end, Pinch the three strips together at one
end, plait or braid them loosely and then
pinch the other end. Let them rise after
being shaped, brush the top with milk or
white Of egg and bake.

Dress Skirts,

The fuss about the crinoline may fizzle
out at the end Of the season. Most of the
best dressed women of the day are dead
against it. Indeed many have fatty re-
fused to wear the full skirts that are be-
coming fashionable. 1t seems safe to say
that the crinoline scare at least is over.
Worth, Doucet and other magnates of
fashion are against it. Worth is reported
as saying that he will not make gown to
be worn with hoops unless especially or.
dered, and Doucet that he will not make
one on any terms. Skirts may be made in
half dozen different ways and yet be
fashionable. The most graceful ones how
ever, are those which have the bulk of the
fullness at the back.

being the Hessian, with the foot powdered

sIRDsEYE VIEW OF wALTHAM's TRACK.

BIRDSEYE VIEW OF wALTHAM's TRACK.
The SLAP track at Waltham has a
banking of seven feet at the turns. This
Is very high, but it does not seem so when
the California track Is considered. The
straight stretches at Waltham are 40S9l
feet long, and the curves are AK feet.
The course ranges in width from 20 to 40
feet. 1t is as smooth and hard as could be
desired and has a perfect system of drain

and the very fast mile ridden ON quadricy-

shaking up when he collided with another
rider and fence at Dublin June and lost
three teeth that he abandoned his Euro
pean tour and sailed for home. 1t is great
ly to be regretted that three false teeth are
the most striking mementos this plucky
rider brings back from Europe.
1t is very probable, however, that the re-
fusal of the National Cyclists union Of Eng

the English races on the ground that he
rode for a bicycle manufacturer and was
not an amateur had more to do with his
return than his injuries at Dublin. Zim-

There was great interest among wheel
men over the meeting between Windle, the
American 1-mile champion, whose record
is Q minutes 8-5 seconds, and johnson,
who claims record of minute SO 3-5 sec
onds. In the first race Windle won, in the
second johnson was victor, and both seemed
content to allow the question of supremacy
to remain in statu quo. Owing to Windle's
refusal TO enter another race in which John

club asked for the champions resignation.
