ment of the associated banks shows the

New York. Nov. 16.-The New York FL
nancier says this week: THE statement
Of the associated banks of New York for
the week ending Nov. I6, does not reflect
the weeks operations by any means. Dur
ing the week ending with Saturday, over
S3,OOO,O00 in gold was exported to Europe,
the specie being obtained by the exchange
of legal tenders, which were drawn from
the banks. Yet the bank statement for the
current week shows an actual increase of
S6Sf,VO in cash, the loss of 1851 400 in legal
tenders being Offset by an increase of ST.
34S,600 in specie. OF course, Saturday 5
gold exports did not figure in the state
ment but even with this factor eliminated
the report does not cover the actual con-
dition of the banks.
It is estimated that 100000 may be re-
quired for gold exports during the coming
week, unless sterling exchange breaks, as
seems probable This, coupled with the
fact that the demand for interior funds is
falling off, and the reserves of the New
ork banks are gradually increasing,
seems to fOreshadow less favorable rate
for money. The whole bank statement. in
TACT points TO this as the ultimate out
come of the present situation. The loan
item for the past week shows a decrease
OF s., 100 the total now standing at S492.
9So,50O the lowest figure reported since
May II, last. The contraction since the
first of the present month has been about
100000 and since October ., nearly SIS
COO,O0O The decrease for the week past was
probably due largely to the liquidation of
mercantile accounts and also to the ef-
forts of some banks to get their reserves
above % per cent. The specie increases
! have been a feature of the statement for
the past four or five weeks, the total on
| oct. r. last standing at $50 S6l 900 rs against
$50, 161, 800. The total specie holdings, how
ever, are nearly $lI00O0O0 less than on
Feb. 9, last. when they reached the highest

earlier in the week, fell off $l.7O7. POO The
total deposit item is now $4,000. 900 less
than reported three months ago. AS a

How to Keep Ants Away.

In recent issue of the Old Home- stead, we read this about keeping ants away, and as it may help some bee keeper who is troubled by ants, we give it a place here: Rub light film coat of balsam Peru around near the bottom of table or kitchen safe legs just q nnrrow band will do-ana renew the balsam every two or three weeks. This will keep ants away from tables, kitchen safes, etc., and what they hold or contain, provided there is no other ant-way than up the legs. One drop of balsam Peru spread around the upper part of sirup bottle will keep the ants away for months. Boil one ounce of baIsam Peru in one gallon of rain- water for half an lNour;, and sponge this water, while hot, over wooden floors and walls, and it will keep. ants away for a long time.

Really Remarkable Family.

On pretty little farm high up among the hills of Calhoun county, Ala, 1000 feet above the sea, lives a most remarkable family. Their name is Sadler. The family consists of a brother and four sisters, and the youngest has already turned his ninety-frst year.. The oldest is several years more than a century old. None of them has ever married. The Sadlers were born in the Old Dominion state. In 1881 the family moved to Alabama and Calhoun county, about fifteen miles east of Anniston. Two years later they became possessed of the property on which they now live, and there erected a log house, which domi- cile they have since inhabited constant ly. Years ago the father and mother died, the former at the age of ninety one, the latter ct the age of seventy five

 Good evening, Miss Julia. How are you, Joyce! You are not going as soon as l come, are you? Why, l have brought you present. But then you won't want to see it until tomorrow.
 "Oh, yes; show me now, please" pleads the little one.
 And while the young man kneels to unite the package he has brought, Joyce's diminutive figure squats on a rug by the fire.
 Giving vent to an exclamation of surprise and delight, Joyce makes a rush for the prize, and, obtaining it, spends several hurried moments in ad- miration and examination. Then, re- membering about bed, she throws one little arm around Mercer's neck; the other tightly holds the doll. She gives him hearty kiss, and, looking earn Sobly III iiio SSNSs SASluiLhS' .oiif you are so good!' and turning to her sister, she says: 'Isn't he, Julia?"
 With perceptible blush, the sister answers: Why, yes he is, indeed. But you must run off to bed now"
 With happy smile on her little face Joyce kisses both her sister and Mercer good night and starts off to bed.
 But at the door she hesitates, stops and turns. ''Mr. Mercer" she says, "I hope you won't be angry, but I didn't forget that fairy story you told me, and l told Julia about it. Now, you're not angry, are you?"
 Mercer just about realizes what the child has said. He is dazed, but he re- plies with nervous, forced laugh
 Am angry? Oh, no; not at all.'
 The little one is too young to no- tice-but the older girl does-that this is said in sarcastic way, kindly withal.
 I'm so glad" Joyce says, in a re- lieved tone. II didn't think you would be angry cause told Julia you liked her. Cause you do, don't you?"
 Miss Julia has not only had trouble to retain her composure during this

interrogation, but felt she was in dan. ger of fainting from embarrassment. However, she controls herself long enough to say:
 Joyce, it's most nine o'clock; go to your bed"
 Without any further remarks, save a sweet Good night" the little one runs of to bed.
 The unexpected declaration that Joyce had made regarding the secrets each had thought buried in the child had quite unnerved Julia.
 Walking to the window, Julia hides her face in the folds of friendly cur tain. The fire on the hearth had al- most died out Nothing came from the embers save dull red glow. The lamp had not been lighted, and the room was becoming enveloped in darkness. Julia throws back the heavy curtains and the rich, silvery light from full, round moon flows softly into the room.
 And as the midnight hour draws nearer there comes floating to the win dow, over the city's roofs, the sound of chimes, as soft and as pure as the moons white rays.
 Listen to the bells. Won't you come to the window? You can hear them better"
 Mercer accepts the girls invitation and is sure he can detect tenderness in her voice that she had never used to him before. A hope springs up in his breast, and as he reaches her side he tenderly takes her hand within his own and says, almost in a whisper, as ii moved by the stiffness and the mystic music of the chimes:
 Miss Merton-Julia-Joyc asked me question before she left us to night. You heard it?'
 Faintly and faltering comes ives.
 "Let me answer it to you. l like you. More than that, love you. Tel me that may hope"
 Julia raises her head, and in her eyes he reads his answer. Tenderly he stoops and kisses the lips npturned tc his, and locked in his strong embrac, she stands silently, happy in his love

Just Bcfore tho Reception.

Here is the course of preparation used by prudent beauty before barring her neck and arms in evening dress: To be- gin with she takes a cold plunge all over; it is merely plunge, and then she rubs herself vigorously with rough towels; then the neck, arms and breast are bathed in alcohol which is allowed to dry upon them; next comes the cocoa oil that now plays such part in fash ionable dressing rooms; the neck, breast and arms are buthed in it, rub ping it in thoroughly. When the flesh is afterwards wiped with soft cloth, no sign of grease is visible on the skin, but an imperceptible amount does re- main, and makes a perfect condition for the application of powder; the pow der is part of the scheme of protection, as well as beautifying measure. After this programme is completed the lady declares she is safe against any exposure encountered in pursuit of social duty.

For an afternoon card party, when the guests constitute club, meeting week. ly at different houses, much simpler rs- treatments should be offered, as an elaborate menu spoiis the appetite for dinner and upsets the digestion to 8 de- gree that should not be encouraged to anyone but ones enemies.

Care and Strength Arc Needed, But It
 Can Be Done at Home.
 It is often the case that accidents happen when one is far away from a cleaners or when, perchance, the carpet may not be worth the expense of the professionals services, but would be extremely useful if put in good order.
 A simple and effectual means of cleaning it is to rip the breadths apart, if the carpet is large; take one breadth at time over a common kitchen table or wide board and SCOUT with prepared soapsuds, if necessary, or naphtha. If that substance is to be used, scrub the carpet thoroughly with an ordinary scrub brush. If the washing is done with soapsuds, it is well to rinse the carpet thoroughly, which may be done by throwing on pailfuls of water and scrubbing it out with the brush to rid the fabric of the suds as nearly as may be. If the carpet shows symptoms of fading, or if the colors threaten to run, 1t is quite worth while to go over it again and again with the brush and with soft cloths. and re- move the water as rapidly as possible, meanwhile having the board or table tipped at an angle so as to allow all surplus water to drain away as quickly as it can. This is rather slow work and hard work; but if well done, the result will be carpet entirely cleaned, perfectly wholesome and quite good enough for an upper room or for the rugs and pieces that are required in

A wElL.kEPT HAND.
1t May Be Acquitted by Anyone Following
 These Directions.


 A beautiful hand is not always possi- ble to acquire, but thoroughly well- kept one may be had without the art of manicure, and by even simpler meas ures than these recommended in Vogue: To begin with, the hands should always be washed in very hot water, or, better yet, in warm oatmeal water. Failing this, few drops of tincture of benzoin in the water add greatly to the white ness and softness of the skin, and also conduce to the beautifying of the nails. When the hands are thoroughly clean, rinse them in clean, warm water, into which teaspoonful of almond meal has been thrown. Dry the hands on a soft towel and immediately rub them with the following mixture: One part pure glycerine, one part lemon juice, one part rosewater. This can be pre- pared either for immediate use on kept in bottle for three or four days ata time.
 Twice week the nails may be rubbed with this varnish: Half an ounce pistachio oil, 32 grains table salt, Ss grains powdered rosin, 33 grains ground alum, so grains melted white wax, grains fine carminc. These in- gredicnts should be thoroughly mixed over a spirit lamp, made into kind of pomatum and preserved in small glass or porcelain jar. It should be ap- piled to the nail by tiny wad of medi- cated cotton and allowed to remain for half an hour. The thin membrane at the root of the nail should then be carefully pushed back with the rounded end of an ivory nail file, and the little 'idle skins" that often grow at the root of the nail cut away with pair of very sharp scissors. When this is done the nail should be polished with the so- called diamond powder" a small quantity of which is put on chamois- skin nail polishcr. The hands arc then washed in hot oatmeal water, well dried on very fine towel, and finally the nails are polished once more with a soft chamoiS.
