The Compass Plant.

The compass plant" is one of the old
est creations of the vegetable kingdom.
1t derives it's name from the fact that it's
leaves always point directly north and
south. So that if you are out on a west
ern prairie and lose your way just look
for one of these plants and remember
that they always point in the directions
indicated. Botanists call this curious
plant "Selphium Laciniatum." 1t is
unpretentious in appearance and bears
yellow flowers that are not unlike field
daisies. 1t has a remarkably thin leaf,
so thin as to be noticeable even to the
untutored eye. The compass plant" is
really western flower and is indigen-

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.
Hints which May Be Useful to Busy
Women.

|
Very light sunshiny rooms can bear
Indian and Pompeiian reds in draperies
and coloring. They have cool effect
even in midsummer
The green coat so fashionable in oak
may be given to it by using a satin cf
lampblack, mixed with linseed oil and
turpentine. Rub the stain well into
the grain of the wood, and finish with
orange shellac. The shellae will change
the black to green. Ash may be stained
dark green in the same way.
A novelty in the house of a woman
who can afford to indulge in such nov
elites is a boudoir with the walls COW
cred with rose pink crepe paper. The
covering of each panel is gathered in
the center under large American
beauty rose, made of flower paper, but
so perfect that it looks as if fresh from
a greenhouse.
The meringue on pies and buildings,
which should be dainty foam several
inches high, is often but q crust OF
leather, produced by too hot an oven.
After making a meringue it should be
spread roughly but evenly over the
surface of a pie or pudding that's near
~ but not quite cold. Turn the heat
off your oven and bake it about 20 min
utes. When finished it should be a
delicate brown. Professional makers
of fine pastry dry or cook meringues
in q very slow oven from half to three
quarters of an hour, and then brown
them slightly with a salamander.
Dessert and tea services, or, in fact,
china of any kind that is ornamented
with gold, should never be washed with
soda in the water. The safest plan to
prevent chipping the edges is to have a
clean wooden tub with cloth in the
bottom; in this put hot water and
piece of soap; rub the soap on a brush
or with the hand to make good lather,
wash the china in the lather, and rinse
in clear, warm water; then stand it ON
cloths spread on a table to drain, or in
one of the wooden drainers specially
prepared for the purpose. Wipe on a
clean teacloth; then, when quite dry,
polish the gold by rubbing it well with
q dry soft wash-leather.
Pretty everyday doilies are made
from those of the fine hemstitched |
linen sold in the stores, with a border
of two rows of feather stitching in |
white silk next the hem. If, in addi- |
ton, an edge OF fine durable lace, such |
as torchon, is added, they are nice
enough for everything except state oc-
casions.
A desirable out of door wrap for the |
house-worl1er may be made large and
loose, reaching to the knees, with big
sleeves and hood attached. This can
easily be slipped on over the dress when
there are windows to wash, clothes to
hang on the line, or other out of door
work to be done in cold or chilly
weather
The best cleanser for sponges is a
strong solution of boraX, in the proper
ton of a tablespoonful to pint of hot
water. 1t viii not only cleanse the
sponge, but disinfect it, destroying all
or parasites. = Chicago

Our rejoicing over the passage Of
the Lead Ore Sampling bill, which
gave government sampling works
to Bonner's Ferry, was cut short
soon after the announcement of the
passage of the deficiency bill, of
which it was a part, by a further
announcement that the president
had interposed with his veto.
We are happy 70 announce, how
ever, that Sampling Works for
Bonner's Ferry is alright A new
general deficiency bill was reported
and quickly passed through con-
gress, and has been signed by the
President. 1t contained the Lead
Ore Sampling clause. Senator Du-
bois wired the HERALD last Tuesday
the facts as above stated and
congratulated Bonner's Ferry on
its good luck.
Mr.. Dubois and Mr.. Wilson de-
serve great credit for securing the
passage of this Jaw. There were
many serious ceApsications. That
they were overcome shows that the
gentlemen have great influence at
the capitol.

The British Don't Like 1t.

The Nelson Tribune does not like
the Lead Ore Sampling clause. It's
kicks have been long and numerous.
The Legislative boyle" is now leg
islative fact, and it will be of in
terest to know how such dyspeptics
as the Tribune view the proposition
1t says:
That legislative boyle known as
the sampling clause has made its
appearance again. Senator Dubois
has succeeded in having it inserted
in the deficiency bill. The nominal
object of the clause is to secure the
United States government against
under rating of the lead contents
of ore imported into the States
from Canada and Mexico. So far
as British Columbia is concerned,
the effect of any such legislation
would be to deprive mine-owners
of any railway competition which
the Canadian Pacific railway could
offer. 1t is only necessary to read
the clause, to understand were it to
become law, all the silver-lea and
lead ores exported from the SLOGAN
into the States would require to be
shipped through either Northport
or Bonners Ferry. Such legislation
as this would give the Great North
ern and Spokane Falls q Northern
railway companies such "cinch"
upon the mine owners of Kootenay
that they could fix What rate they
pleased Fortunately for Koot-
enay there are other railway in
terests affected than those controll-
ing the traffic from Northport and
Bonners Ferry, and it is not likely
that they will consent to be euch-
red without protest.
