For preserving in lime a pickle is
made in the following way: Take

pounds of unslacked lime and four
pounds of salt, or in that proportion,
according to the quantity of eggs e

and then let stand until the liquor has
settled and is perfectly clear. Draw

leaving the sediment at the bottom.
Take five ounces each of baking soda,
cream of tartar, saltpeter and borax

in the brine until ready for use. If it
evaporates more water may be added
but the pickle should never be used
more than once. These proportions
will give brine enough to preserve
about one hundred and fifty dozen
eggs:

Mrs. Lanrtry ON Perfect Beauty.

Perfect beauty is, to my mind, largely a
matter of health, writes Mrs. Langtry, the
famous beauty, in the Boston Herald. A
woman who is not in good physical condi-
ton cannot look attractive. One of the
most beautiful features about woman is
her complexion, and q good complexion Is
impossible unless the organs OF the body
are in perfect working order. have found
that the best way to keep In good health
and to keep the complexion clear is to rise
early and take long walks before breakfast.
1t is also good to battle at least twice day
and to take massage treatment twice q
week. This method keeps the pores open,
the blood circulates freely, and the ruddy
hue of health Is then In the checks.
Many women ruin their health by tight
lacing. 1t is pure vanity-and very fool
ish vanity. A small waist is beautiful,
but tight waist is hideously ugly. The
effort is always apparent, and the woman
is thus Inundated and rendered ridiculous
by her own foolishness. Men do not care
particularly for small waists. 1t Is not,
therefore, o sign of beauty. But woman
with large hips and full bust will always
appear to have q slender waist whether she
really has or not. That, being natural is
truly beautiful. AS far as correct proper
tions go, there arc many women of today
who are nearly akin in beauty to the Greek
statues One can scarcely go out without
seeing some woman or girl so perfect In
proportions and so glowing In health and
beauty that she would not suffer by COM
parison with the finest of them.

An Unsuspected Source of Danger.

In many households kerosene oil is or
dered by tho barrel, and when the oil is
consumed the barrels are used for other
purposes There is great risk attending
this unless the greatest care is taken in
cleaning them. This is best done by very
strong soda and potash, which should be
allowed to remain in them for some time.
An illustration of the danger of using
these barrels without proper cleaning is
given. A barrel, with one head removed,
had been placed in the cellar, and guam
tity of kitchen utensils were put into it
for storage the idea being that they would
not rust on account of the oil. Some ar
ticle being needed, match was lighted
and held over the barrel in order to see to
take the piece out 1t CHANGED to touch the
edge of the barrel, and instantly the flame
ran all around the inside, setting the bar
rel on fire, completely destroying the con-
tents, and filling the entire house with
black and thick smoke and SCOT. In an
other instance wooden alcohol barrel
took fire in the same way and exploded,
throwing quantity of iron with which it
was filled with great force in all directions,
killing one person and severely injuring
several otherB.-New York Ledger.

Shoes md Skirt Binding.

The braiding, binding or lining of q
dress has not little to do with the ill APP
pearance OF many shoes against which
they rub. BY the friction with coarse
braiding, ETC., 1no shoes arc made shabby
in a short time The handsome exterior
of more than ono pair of costly shoes has
also been mutilated by too stif1ly starchcd
petticoat. White petticoats usually have
sharp bottom edges which arc generally, it
is alleged, "as stiff as n board, and which
rub the shoe in detrimental manner. AL
though white petticoats are no longer
deemed ultra" fashionable, still they are
worn by largo number of women. In
view of these facts women should not
starch their petticoats so stiffly, and dress
makers should put as little edging as pos
sible on all skirts. If they would do this,
shoe manufacturers all over the land
would rise up and call them blessed, F" for
it can be said for manufacturers that they
are not so anxious for "the almighty dol
lar as to not wish every lady wearcr OF
their shoes full satisfaction in every re-
spect for patronizing their respective
brands

The Child Type In Woman.

Let us pause a time to see what theory,
II any, our results establish. Here again.
from her mental differences, the doctrine
of woman S inferiority receives no support
inferior no doubt in philosophy, science
and invention, and in her conception OF
abstract truth and justice but superior in
intuition, in charity, in temperance, in
fidelity, in balance. But here again, as in
her physical peculiarities, woman ap-
proaches the child type. This is seen In
the prepopderance of the emotional life
over the discriminative and of the impul-
sive over the voluntary.
So also the quick perception and the re-
tentive memory remind us of the child
more than do the stern logical processes Of
the man. Woman's mental associations,
selecting the concrete, the individual, the
whole rather than the part, relations In
space rather than in time, are also those
of the child.
Woman's receptivity, her faith and
trust, naive freedom from skepticism, her
fear and timidity, her feeling Of depend
ence, her religious instincts, are all child
traits. Children, like women, have slower
reaction time and less motor ability, are
more easily hypnotized, have more num-
Der forms and color associations, have less
power of inhibition, express their emotions
more in their faces and more readily give
way to tears and smiles. Modern child
study has shown that children are more
cruel than adults and have little power to
discriminate between truth and falsehood.
They also are sympathetic and changeable
and act with reference to present rather
than remote ends. Woman, in respect to
her altruism, pity and charity, has less re-
semblance to the child, but these traits are
so intimately connected with her duties Of
motherhood as to have little bearing upon
the theory of her naturally infantile con-
stitution. G. Il. W. Patrick in
Popular Science Monthly.

The Ways of Costly Wives.

There is so much talk nowadays about
the advanced woman, the fin do steele fe-
male and the new mold of femininity that
it is well to look upon this much talked OF
individual in the light of wife.
The advanced woman, or she who Is
truly fin do steele, is one of the most costly
wives ever known. The man who takes
one to himself must make allowances for
many expenses no woman used to have.
This advanced woman, who tries to keep
up to the age, has as many club dues as
most men and q great many more than
the average one. She outdoes him on his
old exclusive territory. She has to pay for
club and society suppers to distinguished
women and now and then to man.
She subscribes to all sorts of entertain
ments, courses and classes that her femi-
nine predecessors never dreamed of and
that are quite as expensive as anything
men do in the same line. She is continu-
ally taking up new charities of whose in
vention her grandmother never dreamed,
and most of them como high. Radical
movements and those for the amclioration
of sociological evils have to be followed up.
Every movement and most of the clubs
that are worth anything have conventions,
which cost good money.
The woman with modern improve
ments' insists she must have all these
things. Therefore, when she weds, man
must add her club dues to his club dues.
Women used to think men were the only
spendthrifts, but they have caught up
bravely themselves. Meantime matrimo-
ny doesn't become any cheaper.
Whether this advanced woman makes
q good wife is another question. Whether
she is as companionable as the moro back
ward one is query yet to BIO answered, but
that she outdoes all other kinds in her OK
travagance is admitted beyond doubt
