Roll Your Umbrella.

"1f half tho citizens of the world,
said a young woman who works on
umbrella covers, "only knew such a
simple thing as how to roll up an
umbrella, most of the umbrellas
brought to dealers to be mended would
never have needed repairs.
'"The right way to roll your UNI
brella is to take hold of the ends of
the ribs and the stick with the same
hand and hold them tightly enough
TO prevent their being. twisted while
the covering is being twirled around
with the other hand. Then your UNI
brella will be as nicely closed as
when you bought it, and the only
wear and tear will be ON the cloth.
at is twisting the ribs out of shape
around the stick and fastening them
there that spoils most of the um-
brellas. Never hold the umbrella by
the handle alone when you roll it up
and you will find 1t will last longer
and cost less for repairs. "--Phila-

Influence Of Color on Diseases

Experiments have been tried with a
view to ascertain if color has an effect
on certain forms of disease. In max
ing this test, number of smallpox
patients were placed in a room to
which only red light was admitted.
The patients we're for the most part
those suffering from unusually severe
attacks, and about half of them being
unvaccinated childred. In spite of the
violent form of the malady, they all
made speedy and safe recoveries, with
very little fever and but few scars.
There has been but little enthusiasm
about eolored glass since the famous
blue-glass excitement of some years
ago. But that certainly did benefit
certain cases, and at intervals ever
since there have been revivals of in

TO DUST A ROOM.

Soft cloths make the best of dust,
ers. In busting any piece of furni-
ture begin at the top and dust down,
wiping carefully with the cloth, which
can be frequently shaken. A good
many people seem to have no idea
what busting is intended to accom-
plish, and instead of wiping off and
removing the dust, it is simply hirted
off into the air and soon settles down
upon the articles busted again.
If carefully taken up by the cloth
it can be shaken off out of the window
into the open air.
If the furniture will permit the use
of damp cloth, that will more easily
take up the dust, and it can be washed
out in pail of soapsuds.
1t is far easier to save work by COW
ering up nice furniture while sweep
ing than to clear the dust out, besides
leaving the furniture looking far bet
ter in the long run. The blessing of
plainness in decoration is appreciated
by the thorough housekeeper who does
her own work while dusting-New

Flowers AreOt The Singers Throat,

In one of the Partisan journals long
discussion has been going on with re-
gard to the effect, injurious or other
wise, that flowers have upon q singers
throst. The consensus of opinion
among the opera singers seems to be
that certain flowers, notably tuberoses
and mimosa, are particularly danger
GUS.
Nine. Christine Nilsson, in her let.
ter on this subject, mentions the case
of a celebrated woman singer with
whom she was appearing in concert
some years ago. AS they stood in the
wings waiting for the first number on
the programme to be announced, q
friend sent huge wreath to the singer,
which was made of tuberoses. The
singer buried her nose in the flowers
for a moment, and three minutes later
when she went upon the stage TO sing
she found that she could not raise a
note. The vocal chord had been tenn.
porarily paralyzed. A doctor wns
called, the flowers were thrown out of
window and the singer, after her
throat had been treated, was able to
sing later in the evening. Mile. EN-
ma Calve in this article also upholds
Nine. Nilsson's opinion.
"The only flowers that ever admit
into my living apartments" writes
Calve, ''are roses and violets. The
tuberose is my particular adherence,
not alone because it suggests death,
but on account of its injurious effect
on the voice. Upon entering room
where lilies are always have an ir-
resistible desire to throw the windows
open. They always irritate my throat.
In my mind there is no doubt about
all flowers being injurious to the
throat except roses. Personally i can
also exempt the violet, but other sing
ers have told me that it had an in
furious effect upon their vocal chords. "

POINTS ABOUT MEAT.

In selecting the meat in respect to
cost, the lower round averages from
thirteen to fifteen cents q pound,
while the upper cost from fifteen to
twenty-five cents. If the steak is
wished for broiling, purchase the up
per round, but for Hamburg steaks,
bouillon, anything in which the meat
is to be chopped before using, the
lower round will do as well at a much
less cost. The aitch-bone costs from
eight TO ten cents pound and makes
very good pot roast, when treated
properly, as tender and we'll favored
as the round. The middle cut of the
shin is usually more a pound than the
rest of the leg, but that at five cents q
pound makes as good soup stock as
that at seven cents. In buying a
roast of beef it is usually economy to
get good-sized one. The meat is
better, and made-over dishes cost far
less than a roast each day.-New York

PFFnrNa ONIONS.

When preparing onions for cooking
hold them below the surface of the
water in deep pan and your eyes will
not be affected, though you should
pare and slice large quantity. This
method is used in picking establish
ments, where bushels of them are put
up daily; bat, remember, the hands,
knife and onions must be kept under
the water. 1t is a good plan to have
two pans of water when the onions are
to be sliced, so that they may be pared
in one pan and then thrown into the
other one for slicing Drain through
a colander before cooking. New York

BEEF srFwEp WITHOUT WATER.

Take three or four pounds of the
round of beef. Put three slices of salt
pork in saucepan and as soon as ii is
crisp take it out and put one onion
and half q small carrot cut fine. Stir
all the while till brown. Then add
one cup of canned tomatoes, two sprigs
of parsley, a bay leaf, three or four
cloves, teaspoonful of sweet MARIO
ram, one-half teaspoonful celery salt,
salt and pepper. Put in the meat and
cover tightly, and cook in a moderate
oven five hours. When about half
done turn the meat. The cover must
be perfectly air tight, and the oven
moderate. When done place the meat
on hot platter, strain the gravy
thicken with little cornstarch wet up
in cold water, add tablespoonful Of
sauce, let it boil up few minutes and
pour around the meat. Any tough
piece of beefsteak may be made very
palatable, cooked according to the
above directions. s.-Home and Farm.

Rum will bloat tho flesh with llro
And eternal thirst inspire.
Rum will clothe with rags your hack,
Make you walk n crooked track
Change your meat to naked bones
And TO wrath your gentle tones.

Rum will rob tho mouth OF food
And the soul OF heavenly good.
