Steel pens are destroyed by the acid

steel pen is put in the ink the acid
therein will exhaust itself on them,
and pens in daily use will remain in
good condition much longer.
1t is not generally known that
piece Of raw potato rubbed on a steel
knife stained with acid will remove
the stains. The knife must be polish
ed afterward in the usual way. This
method saves the wear Of the knife and
economies labor.
To remove coffee stains from linen,
dissolve the yoke Of an egg in little

Wooden socks and stockings treated in
this way make excellent scrubbing
cloths, and silk ones are very useful
for rubbing CRATES, etc.
New socks feel very comfortable to
the feet, but wearing them before they
are washed is a mistake. Hosiery
should always be washed before being
worn, as the washing shrinks the
threads and makes the socks wear as
long again, besides preventing the feet
being injured by the colorjng. When
put on before washing they stretch out
Of shape, and can never be restored to
their original form.

Tho Way to Unite.

The st. Louis Evening Journal esti-
mates there are 100000 voters in this
country who would vote for a reform
ticket, made up as follows:

Single taxes. ................. 100000
Greenbackers ...........,....1,0 00, 900

AS neither Of the old parties favor
these reforms, or any of them, it does
seem that these forces could be COM
bined on a ticket, even if they should
not agree on platform. 1t is certain
none Of them will ever be attained by
voting the democratic or republican
ticket and as the popullst platform en-
braces the most, If not all Of these re-
