Some of the uses of salt, as reported in
the New York Sun:
A little salt rubbed on the cups will re-
move tea stains. Salt put into whiteWash
Will make 1t stick better. Use salt and wa
ter to clean willow furniture, applying II
with a brush and rubbing dry. Ginghams
or cambrics rinsed in salt and water will
hold their color and look brighter.
Salt and water make an excellent rene
dy for infiamed eyes. Hemorrhages of the
lungs or stomach are often checked by
small doses of salt. Neuralgia of the feet
and limbs can be cured by bathing night
and morning with salt and water as hot
as can be borne. After bathing, rub the
feet briskly with coarse towel. A gargle
of salt and water strengthens the throat,
and, used hot, will cure a sore throat. As
tooth powder salt will keep the teeth
white and the gums hard and rosy.
Two teaspoonfuls of salt in half a pint
of tepid water is an emetic always on hand
and is an antidote for poisoning from nj
trate of silver.
1t was in a florists shop, says the New
York Tribune, in upper Broadway. Two
pretty women accompanied by a fash
over the flowers with the air of those
who had had experience enough with
the Persian lamb jacket had selected a
rather small bunch of violets, which,
however, quite made up in price for what
ded, paid for them and then turned to the
girl in the sealskin cape, who was holding
few half-opened La France roses.
Il will take these" she said.
But are you sure those are enough
and where would you like them pinned
on?'' he inquired with solicitude, taking
off his jewelled scarfpin for the purpose.
"Oh, wherever you think they will look
best, Jack" was the reply, and after one
or two trials they were finally arranged
IN a really artistic way near her left
Come Amy" said the young man,
carelessly, and the girl with the violets
started abruptly at her name, and passed
out with the other two into the street
Her face had been study from the mo-
ment the man had turned from her and
given all his attention to the other girl.
AS the door closed behind them she tore
the Violets from where she herself had
pinned them, threw them to the pave
her heel. Then she looked up, bowed
sarcastically to her companions and turn
ed off at the corner of the street
The young man drew a long breath of
establishment. 'Well-I-never!' was all
he said.
1t is a very attractive suite of rooms to
which for her special occupation our
young countrywoman, the latest Duchess
of Marlborough is slowly journeying via
much European lettering. The suite in
cludes eight rooms, charming little Ii
brary being part OF one, and is the
same occupied by all the duchesses of the
house since the first one came to Blen-
helm 200 years ago.
An English paper tells of a pretty bit of
forethought on the part of the present
duke. He, mindful of the comfort of the
bride, gave orders just before starting
for America that a corner of the chapel
should be fitted up for her especial occu-
pancy-a corner easily reached from her
own suite of rooms. When, as Miss Van
derbilt, the young duchess staid at Marl-
borough, she expressed sometimes, with
a pretty diffidence, her taste in the mat
ter of furnishing and decoration, and she
will find, on her return to Blenheim, many
pleasant reminders that her tastes have
been consulted.
An exchange gives this good advice
The girl that has the best time at a dance
is the one that looks fresh, bright, and
happy. She may not be pretty, she may
not be clever, but she will have numerous
partners and a thoroughly good time.
Therefore, it behooves every girl not to
look tired and to guard against this she
must have comfortable shoes A shoe
that pinches in the least is bound to stamp
on the girls features a tagged expression
before the evening is half over. Yet, a
shoe may not pinch, and still be very ia
tiguing. A slipper, especially, may slip
up and down at the heel, II too large,
and cause almost as much discomfort as
a cramped feeling. Consequently, the girl
that wishes success in the ballroom
should look well to the comfort of her
shoes.
