Bridget Didn't Like 1t,

Shc was a young wife just married from boarding school, one of the lovey dovey order, and although educated in Boston didn't know beans from any oth- CT vegetable. Hence this dialogue with the cook:
 "Now, Briddy, dear. what are we to have for dinnerf"
 There's two chickens to dress, mum. "
 "rll dress them the first thing. Where are their clothes?'
 Holy Moses, mum, they're in their feathers yetr'
 ''Oh, then serve them that way. The ancient Romans always cooked their pea cocks with the feathers on. It will be a surprise to hubby"
 ''It will that, mum. Sure if you want to help you could be parin the turnips."
 ''Oh, how sweetl I'll pair them two and two in no time. Why, I had no idea cooking was so picturesquef"
 "I think, mum, that washing the eel cry do be more in your line"
 'tAll right, Briddy. I'll take it up to the bathroom, and I've some lovely Paris soap that will take of every speck."
 'Thank you, mum. Would you mind telling me the name of the asylum where you were eddicated? think I'll have to take some lessons there myself if we be goin to work together. ."-Detroit Free Press.

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

4 sheer is the stiletto of conversation.
 Kind words are the music of the world.
 Great minds have wills; feeble ones have wishes.
 The manner of giving shows the character of the giver more than the gift itself.
 Sincerity, deep, great, genuine sincerity, is the first characteristic of all men in any way heroic.
 likeness is the mother of many wanton children. They that do nothing are in the ready way to do worse than nothing.
 Let fortune do her worst, whatever she makes us lose, so long as she never makes us lose OurlA Aonesty and our independence.
 He that does not know those things that are of use and necessity to know is but an ignorant man. whatever he may know be side.
 A secret is like silence-you cannot talk about it and keep it. It is like money when once you know there is any con cealed, it is half discovered.
 If you hate your enemies, you will con tract such a vicious habit of mind as by de grees will break out upon those who are your friends or those who are indifferent to you.
 A wise and good man will turn examples of all sorts to his advantage. The good he will make his patterns and strive to equal or excel them. The bad he will by all means avoid.
 We may divide thinkers into those who think for themselves and those who think through others-the latter are the rule, the former the exception. Only the light which we have kindled in ourselves can illumi- nate others.-MontrealS Star.

This was surprising news for the little town of Rochester, N. H., where all the facts are known and have been widely commented on, and we believe our readers will be deeply interested when all the de- tails are made known.
 Mrs Louis NJ. Henderson resides at 10 Rod road, Rochester, N. H., and when asked about the matter, spoke freely and unreservedly.
 "For long time" she said, al was very weak and delicate in health. Doctors called my troubles lung and heart disease. I had a very bad cough and spit up blood every day. I was very weak and pros trated and had Q number of spells of fall ing on the floor and also when out doors, in which attacks they thought I was dy- ing.
 II was so nervous my limbs would draw up as though I had a cramp. I was so badly of, so weak and run down. that had to give up and take to my bed.
 Il kept my room for almost three months. then began to take Dr Greene S nervura blood and nerve remedy, and believe that this medicine is all that saved my life.

 AQUARIUM. breathe. When we remember that gold fish are the easiest cared for of any household pet, it seems strange that we do not more often see them, but probably the cost of the aquarium itself is the true explana- ton.
 The most useful form of aquariums are the glass globes that cost from e to 5 each. This shape is, however, easily broken. Wick, in his Illustrated Month ly, advises instead an octagonal or ob- long tank, and tells how an ingenious person can make one at home when it is not practicable to buy this kind, which costs from 5 to $25. The sides of course should be of glass set in a wooden or tin framework, and the bottom should be lined with zinc or tin. The tin should be painted to prevent rust, and every crack needs to be puttied to prevent the water from leaking through. If only one or two fish are kept, large candy jar is a convenient thing to keep them in. It is best to allow at least half a gallon of water to each fish if one would avoid having to change the water each day.
 Though taking it in small quantities, fish require oxygen the same as our selves. Where several fish are confined in one aquarium the supply of oxygen in the water is soon exhausted unless the supply is kept up or renewed in some way. This is usually accomplished by growing water plants in the same aqua rum with the fish.
 The most useful plants are probably the water milfoils, of which the well | known water moss is one species and the much advertised water parrot another. A 2 inch pot will hold soil enough for a tank full of these plants.
 The green slime that is apt to collect ! on the sides of the glass is due to minute water weeds. It affords food to the fish and helps to supply oxygen to the water, | but presents so unsightly an appearance | that it should never be allowed to remain where it is at all noticeable. Where there is a proper balance between fish and plant life the water will not need l changing for long time, but the sedi- ment and particles of dirt will need to be taken out twice week by the use of the siphon or the water will become clouded and dirty looking.
 It is a simple matter to remove this sediment. One only needs three or four l feet of rubber half inch tubing, costing or 5 cents foot. Drop one end of the siphon or tubing in the aquarium and allow the other end to reach to bucket standing somewhat lower than the aqua

Il have received the greatest possible benefit from its use, and both my husband and myself believe that I could not have lived without it."
 Facts like this speak volumes for this medicine, Dr Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. If it can make such a re- markable cure as that of Mrs Henderson it is indeed a most wonderful remedy, a medical discovery which is the greatest blessing to our people. If it will cure such bad case as Mrs Henderson's was, it is an assured fact that 1t will cure all who are ailing, run down in health or out of order with poor blood, weak nerves, stomach, liver and kidney diseases. It will surely make the weak strong, the sick well. Besides it is purely vegetable and harmless.
 Doctors widely recommend its use. It is indeed physicians prescription. the discovery of Dr Greene, of S5 West 14th street New York, who is so wonderfully successful in curing all forms of nervous and chronic diseases. The doctor can be consulted free, personally or by letter.

 MT. Eddy of Bayonne, N. J., has devised a set of tailless kites. He has sent them up 1, 400 feet, and they will rise in a dead calm. The weather bureau is interested in their workings.
 A process has been discovered by Ger man mechanic for producing through the combination of rawhide and a composition of his own a new material adapted to the manufacture of 'cog and friction wheels which is considered likely to do away in many cases with iron.
 Safety matches that can be used without a box are to be placed on the English mar ket by a German inventor. The idea is to tip the two ends of the wood separately with those compositions which in the or dinary way go one on the box and the oth- CT on the match. To use, break the wood across the middle and rub the ends to. CetheF

DESIRABLE FORM OF AQUARIUM.

rum; exhaust the air in the tube by ap- plying the lips to the lower end of the siphon. The water will follow with a rush. and as long as that end is kept the lowest the water will flow uninterrupt- edly from the tank above. The end of the tubing in the aquarium can be guid- ed directly over the spot where the filth is collected together, when the suction will cause every speck and particle to be drawn up in the tube and discharged at the other end. It will take but a mo- ment to do this, and the water will be left limpid and pure.

A teaspoonful of this stirred into pint of starch will make shirt fronts look like new. Another (which, however, have not tried my self) is made by melting together ounces white wax, 3 drams of spermaceti, one half pound of borax and 1a ounces of gum tragacanth.

Treatment of Shoes.

The longer leather shoes and boots are kept. provided the storing place be dark, the longer they will wear. Hence it is real economy for adults to have two or more pairs of shoes on hand at one time.
 Rub the soles with mixture of one part resin and six parts tallow, melted together. Apply this quite hot, and heat well in. The resin is a preservative, and the mixture keeps the soles from getting wet through and adds to the durability tf the leather.
