How to Prevent Fading Of Cotton Stockings

How to Prevent Fading Of Cotton Stockings
In a general way it may be said that
salt and celebrity are the best helps tc
save colors.
Few fancy colors in cotton will bear
more than one, or two washings without
growing dingy. Ammonia in the wash
water will help to brighten some reds.
There is, however, SO much variation
in the dyestuffs and the dyeing that nc
certain rule is possible. Sugar of lead
water and black pepper tea are held by
some good laundresses sovereign for any
colored cottons.
Shake your stockings free Of dirt and
dust, wash them in plenty Of fresh
clean suds, rinse we'll and dry quickly
while wrong side out Iron while slight
ly damp, folding the stockings careful
~ along the back seam and pressing the
iron forward.
Wet very dirty socks, as those Of a
workingman Or small boy, with kcro-
sene OIL Let them lie half an hour; then
scald with boiling water, to which an
monia or washing soda has been added,
till it feels slick to the touch. Stir III
socks rapidly round and round in it
with a wooden paddle, fish them ont in
8 minute or two and wash as you Go
the rest. You will be simply amazed to
sec how much dirt they have lost. Re

How to Prevent . Black Eye.

There is nothing to compare with
tincture or strong infusion Of capsicum
annuum, mixed with an equal bulk Of
mucilage or gum arabic and with the
addition of few drops Of glycerin.
This should be painted all over the
bruised surface with a camel's hair pen
oil and allowed to dry on, a second OF
third coating being applied as soon a.
the first is dry. If done as soon as the
injury is inflicted, the treatment will
invariably prevent the biz -ening OF
the abused tissue. The same remedy has
no equal in rheumatic, sore or stiff neck.

HOME ON THEIR HEADS.
delds, in the ofttimes biting air of tho
fall, for the husks of the corn they could
denude in that time of its outer cover
ing?
OF course these women think they are
getting good pay for their work, else
they wouldn't do 1t at the price, but to
the farmer and the hired man, whose
places they have usurped in the corn
field, it looks as if they were working
for nothing. But the husks, which to
tho farmer are nothing but bedding and
second rate fodder, are to the Italian
women the very best material imagina-
BILE for filling bedticks. And the work,
though generally counted laborious, ia
not overheard to the hardy daughters Of
Italy, whose whole lives have been a
succession Of what would be the direst
hardships to even the poorest of Ameri-
can born women. 1t is almost infinitely
better than picking rags or sorting filthy
garbage barrels in the towns, and it is
outdoors besides, where tho air is pure
and free.
A veraoious correspondent Of an east
ern paper says that they chatter and
sing at their work like so many chill
dren. They do more, too, than to husk
the corn. They dump it into the wagon
box after it is husked, and then at the
close Of the days work, after the sun
has cast his last yellow rays on the New
England landscape, they hustle to the
barn, hitch up the team and haul the
corn that has been husked to the corn
crib. Then they tramp homeward to
the nearest town. Whether they carry
the husks home on their heads or not
the correspondent does not say, but very
likely they do. 1t is stated that the hir.
ed men Of Connecticut ore vastly indig-
nant because Of the present arrange
ment, but it is evident that they are
poworless, and it is possible that in a
year or two moro the "dago women"
will be husking corn all over the land
that ia, where corn is husked by hand,
for there are some localities. I under
stand, where machines for husking are
in use.
Some Of my older readers will re-
member that the italian women arc not
the first Of their sex to husk corn in
America. Many Of the pioneers wives
used to do their share in the cornfield
every fall, despite the fact that it meant
bleeding hands, turned back and broken
nails and aching frames. It's no joke
to sit on bundle of cornstalks all day
in the chill air of October or November
and tear the husks from ears Of corn.
Even farming men do not like it, and
there i no job about the place that even
the small farmer shirks SO willingly to
the hands Of the help and the boys.

 County Commissioners Decide Against Law
 and Order League Reponstrants.
 Late yesterday afternoon the county commissioners decided to grant li- cense to Thomas J. Coffey to sell liquor at the corner of State and View streets despite the vigorous opposition and pro- test made against him by the Law and Order league of this city.
 The hearing yesterday was held in the common pleas court room and many interested spectators were present among them Rev. pr. Newman Smyth president of the local Law and Order league. Ex-Judge Henry Stoddard also sat with the county commissioners as their legal adviser Among the wit nesses examined for the remonstrants were L. A. Babcock and Levi Hayne, while in Coffey's behalf the witnesses were Thomas F. Kenney, Charles H. DeWolf, James Robbie, Isaac Mason and others, including Coffey himself.
 After the arguments had been made the commissioners and ex-Judge Stod- dard retired and after having consid- cred the case about fifteen minutes, Commissioner Lindley returned and an. nounced that the commissioners had. decided to grant Coffey his license. When asked if any action had been taken on the application of Alderman John H. Moore, he stated that the commissioners had decided to defer ac-. tion on that case for the present.

Branford,s Sensation.

Barnford, March 7.-Considerable of a sensation was created here last night by the arrest of Nathan I. Miller. a mar ried man, who is foreman in the Nal leable Iron Fittings company. Re gently the girls in the Branford lock works have been subjected to a series of annoyances of an indescent char acter, but by whom they did not know, Yesterday one of the girls found note in an outbuilding asking for an ap- pointment with the writer. The girl reported the case and trap was set.
 Superintendent Macgovern notified Deputy Sheriff Carney, who. with an- other officer, watched for the stranger, while the girl was told to act as decoy, and apparently keep the appointment.
 The plan was successful. Just as Miller had met the girl and got into con- versation, and had committed himself, he was arrested.
 This morning he was fined S7 and costs. Attorney Edmund Zacher assist ed the state in prosecuting.
