Keep the He'd Clean.

Many people will use pair Of blankets
for year or more without ever think
ing of putting them into the tub, because
they are considered cumbersome to laun-
dry and seldom come out looking as well
as when they went in. If they are
washed in moderately warm water and
rinsed twice, then pulled into shape, they
will have achieved a degree of cleanli-
ness that is not overshadowed by any
loss of good looks. Every day they
should be well shaken, as well as aired.

essential to the elegance Of bed have
now almost entirely ceased to be used,

one gown is of white plated mousseline

round the waist by white guipure with
deep points running upward. which lace
answers for the belt. This bodice has
also the same lace put across the bust,

fon to push through in lozenge- shaped
bouffants.

Why Olives Are Cheap.

DO you know what makes picked
olives so cheap" Buffalo furnisher Of
delectables said the other day. You
wouldn't expect a California olive grow
err to get rich when his olives are sold
at little more than the cost of the
brine. l will tell you a secret-the trick
in the olive trade. Down in the Genesee
Valley there are great fruit farms.
There Is one grower who has thirty
acres of plum trees, seven thousand
OF them now bearing. Each one yields
three or four bushels of green plums.
The plums are olive-shaped; they are
picked when green, sold to "A buyer who
puts them in fancy-la belled bottles or in
kegs and they are sold for olives. They
so much resemble the genuine that no
one but an epicure can detect that they
are not. Tricks in all trades, aren't
there?"

THOSE PRECIOUS DIVIDENDS.

dividends. The capital stock of this
particular corporation Is thirty-six mil
lion dollars, nominally. What the bed

was watered Is not known. Eight per
cent. per annum ON this nominal capt
tai stock annually amounts to two mill
ions eight hundred and eighty thousand
dollars; good round sum, which prob
ably may be sixteen per cent. on the
honest, bedrock capital.
When the profits OF palace-car build

der 1t necessary to reduce the wages OF
the Pullman workmen as well as to put
them on short time. 1t may well have
been feared that the precious divide nds.

porat!ons. might be discontinued and
the eight or sixteen per cent. naturally
lessened II not withheld altoget her. This
seemed the more probable after the
poor workmen had been forced to strike.
the works closed. and a suspension Of
railroad business runous to the whole
country had taken place.
Fortunately, however, for the stock
holders this has not been the case. A
quarterly dividend of two per cent, or
eight per cent. per annum, has just been
declared by the Pullman corporation,
and the fortunate stockholders divide
among themselves seven hundred and
twenty thousand dollars.
The suspension OF this dividend for
one quarter might have prevented the
strike. But then why should not capital
have its first dues and why should the
Pullman stockholders be expected to
forego their beloved dividends?
