Now that the children dire running
their pretty frocks with fruit stains, the
following easy method Of taking the un-
slightly blotches out of white material
may be found useful. Moisten the spot
and hold it under burning match and
the sulphurous gas will cause the stain
TO disappear This will not do, how
ever, for colored goods, as it will take
out the color, But il, while the stain is
fresh, you put 1t over u cup and pour
boiling water throug h it, 1t will almost
always take out the spot IL it is done be-
fore washing. Soap almost invariably
fixes any stain
1t is well, too, to remember at this
season Of the year that you can prevent
your pretty new ginghams from fading
II you let them lie for several hours in
water in which has been dissolved a
goodly quantity Of salt, Half u pint Of
salt to u quart of boiling water is tho
rule. Put the dress in it while it is hot,
and after several hours wiring it out dry
and wash as usual. New York Tribune.

The primary condition for high speed
Is fineness Of form, so that the water at
the bow Of the vessel may be separated
and thrown to one side and brought to
rest again at the stern and behind the
vessel with the least possible disturb
ance, and the measure Of efficiency of
form for the maximum speed intended
is inversely at the height of the waves
Of disturbance.
A ship that has been designed to attain
speed of fifteen knots will, when NOV
ing at twelve knots, show a very slight
disturbance indeed, and in one designed
for eighteen knots, when moving at this
lower speed, it will be scarcely observa-
Bile; but however fine the lines Of a ship
may be. she must at every speed pro-
duce some disturbance, although it may
be very slight, as the water displaced by
her must be raised above the normal
level and replaced at the normal level:
hence, at or near the bow Of ship there
is always the crest Of d wave, and at or
near the stern the hollow Of one.
When vessel is going at its maximum
speed, and is properly designed for that
speed, the wave should not be very high,
nor should it extend beyond the i'm
mediate neighborhood Of the bow; like
wise the wave Of replacement should be
the same at or near the stern Of a ship,
and the "wakep or disturbance Of water
left behind in the track Of the ship
should be narrow.-A. e, Seaton in
Ecribners.

and breathe the lovers vow, should they

Flora know Reginald except as time

Would you have her see today the thin

The late Mrs Coventry Waddell was
said to be the first New York lady who
ever held salon. BY birth, position
and fortune she was eminently fitted fo=
the place she held in society before her
husbands loss of fortune, Every one Of
note in fashionable, artistic or literary
circles might be met ut her receptions.
0f late years, since her husbands death,
Mrs. Waddell had gone into society a
little and had entertained quietly at her
house in Fifteenth street, She was gem
erous to u fault, and in spite of her re-
duced circumstances gave largely to
benevolent objects. -Harper's Bazaar.

When Lieutenant Governor Norman j.

president of the state senate he deemed it
an appropriate occasion on which to define
his political platform and to discuss the
theories Of government. Hearose to speak
at ll:30 o'clock His successor, the Hon.
H. G. Brokmeyer, occupied an anteroom,
ready to be inaugurated when summoned
by the senate. He was also primed with a
speech that was to be the effort Of his life,
Governor Colman had just finished his
"thanks" at HAS o'clock. AT noon he was
saying, "And, in the second place, fellow
citizens" !" Mr. Brokmeyer grew more and
more nervous He paced up and down the
narrow confines of the anteroom and sent
out messengers to ascertain when Mr.. Col
man would quit AT t2:ls o'clock Mr.. Col
man was beginning to classify his subject
into subdivisions, and at 1890 he had
plunged into the tariff with all the enthu
siasm Of his ardent democratic nature.
Mr. Brokmeyer was furious. His oppor.
tunity was gone, and his remarks were un-
fit for publication. At I2:45 Mfr, Colman
closed, with an eloquent peroration, and
then sent committee to escort Mr.. Brok

introduced ''the lieutenant governor Of
