The Danish peasantry have a notable
love OF order and symmetry in house
hold arrangement, placing their furni-
ture wherever possible in pairs md In
exactly corresponding positions. One old
peasant who had accumulated a little
money, and had been prevailed upon to
buy his daughter Il piano, seriously con-
sidered buying another to place against
the opposite wall; their bedsteads con-
sist or great boxes, generally painted red
or green, and heaped with feather-beds,

There Is much contradictory advice In
the many beauty books that are read By
the thousand by all women who want
to be well-favored-and what woman In
above that vanity? Some very highly
recommend hot water for the skin, and
many who have fresh, clear compilations
declare that they owe this boon en-
tirely to the use of water that Is, at
least, tepid. while they never think Of
using cold water on the face. Now arises
a complexion specialist who says cold
water is tha thing after all. and that
hot Is to be scrupulously avoided. He
wishes n to try soap and water for
once a day, at any rate, drying with .
coarse towel and causing friction, then
rubbing thoroughly with a piece q

Painters' Pickle.

Painters pickle Is used for removing
old paint. 1t Is useless to waste time
and money applying good enamel paint
over old paint. for 1t quickly cracks and
grows shabby. Mix one pound and a
half of stone potash, one pound and a
half to two pounds of soft soap. and
half a pound of washing soda together,
and stir into about a gallon OF water.
The pickle should then be boiled til the
potash Is melted. Apply this with a
brush, then let it stand for several hours.
The work must afterwards be washed
thoroughly with strong, hot saltwater,
using no soap. This pickle may be ap-
piled equally well hot or cold. Great
care must be taken In using the pickle,
as it d!scolors the inger-nails and takes
the color out of anything it touches.

Gently failed for a large amount, was in

Lately he received notice hat there was

rs soon as his business affairs could be
arranged.
Justice Mcmahon told Fay to go to a
civil court.

Costly Coal and Land Ownership

Of anthracite coal mined annually, S2l. 500. 900 a

Creator put there years ago to warm his dear

two prices for hauling coal, because the wealth
Of the United States Is so concentrated that the
masses are too poor TO do the passenger act. and
only by charging double rates on actual necessi-
ties can the railroads manage to live. Third.
land on Manhattan Island Is 30 costly that re-
tailers must pay fabulous prices for room to store
coal. wagons. &C. which prices must be paid by
the consumer. Remedy: Eliminate royalty In the

Just system OF taxation make general business 30
