ENGAGEMENT RINGS.
Rubies Are Taking the Place of Diamonds
as ''the Correct Thing"

Rubies Are Taking the Place of Diamonds
as 'the Correct Thing"
The most correct engagement ring to
give the dearest girl in the world is no
longer a diamond solitaire but ruby.
This will be unwelcome news for the
impecunious bridegroom, but the Jew
elers declare 1t is fact.
Thcruby is supposed to be or all stones
the most lucky-a pretty legend con-
nected with the gem is that Noah was
supposed to have had ruby of marvel
Gus brilliancy in the ark, and that the
roseate light which it emitted was suffi-
cient to illuminate the wonderful boat
until all danger was past.
Many of the oldest betrothal rings
were set with rubies, these stones be-
ing the acknowledged love token of
long ago.
And, speaking of ancient love tokens,
the British museum contains love let
ter which was written $500 years ago.
This is no doubt the oldest love letter in
existence, and it is also the most sub
stantial, as it was written on a brick.
The letter was proposal of marriage
for the hand of an Egyptian princess

KITCHEN MANAGEMENT.

Lots of Trouble Saved by a Little Fore
thought and Method.
The great point of good management
n the kitchen is to clean things away
as you go on, and to be one day ahead
in ordering necessaries. For instance,
take the everyday want of tea and
sugar. At starting, order in two pack
cts of each, and as one packet is cleared,
order in another, so you will always be
prepared for an emergency, and the
servant will not be called away from
her regular work to run to the gro
GERS" The kitchen, managed by some
cooks, is everlastingly in a muddle, be-
cause things, after they have been
used, are left here, there and every
where, instead of being washed and put
away in their proper places. The mis-
trcss of the house should insist upon
order in the kitchen, and also that her
cook should get ahead with vegetables
at least in preparing them-befort
they are wanted; that is to say, with re-
gard to potatoes, try to get them pared
early in the day, and don't leave the
rucllIuB u peas "Htn LII StdSOu uuIli
the last moment. A dinner is often
spoiled through vegetables being in
sufficiently cooked. 1t is the fashion in
some houses to put kitchen clock on
at least ten minutes, a plan that is
worth following when the cook has
tendency to be late. It is wonderful
what lot of trouble will be saved by
& little forethought and method in tie
kitchen; and how time is economical
if every vessel is in it's right place.
Sometimes one sees the sink laden with
dirty pudding basins, milk jugs, knives
and forks and other things besides.
Cooks will leave stale pieces of bread
about, and choppers and boards with
fragments of meat still clinging to
Them. This is all very untidy and very
unnecessary. One great secret of sue
cess in cooking is to have rything
clean and fresh; another is: Never
put off till the last anything that can
be done beforehand" thirdly, keep
wary eye upon the clock.-Madame.

AN OLD GAME.

This morning man went into Kali
teyer & Schuchard's drug store. on
East Houston street, to buy a bottle
Of morphine. He put the morphine
bottle in his pocket, but discovered
that he had no money and returned a
bottle, which was put up in similar
wrapper. The clerk found that the
bottle was empty and held the man
until he produced the full bottle. and
then released him. He was NOR
phine fiend. and this is an old game
that is worked when a fiend has the
"habit" and no dope.

ABOUT THE ATLAS BANK.

Chicago, Dec 2S-The Atlas Nation
al bank, which went out of business
today, was involved in the failure
of Meadow-Croft Brothers and the
Central Trust and Savings bank,
which assigned a year ago, cleared
through the Atlas. The collateral
which the defunct bank had on de-
post to secure it's clearances, was
said to be ample, however, and at the
time Mr. Gaunnis made the statement
that the Atlas National bank would
not lose through the failure.
Chicago, Dec. 2S.-As a direct result
of the retirement of the Atlas Ma
tional bank the Dime Savings bank
temporarily suspended payment this
morning. The directors of the Dime
Savings bank are practically the same
as those of the Atlas.
Washington. Dec. 2S.-Comptroller
Eckles said today that the closing of
the Atlas National bank, Chicago
was a voluntary affair and that from
information he had received indicated
all the banks creditors would receive
payment in full.

AN INCENDIARY ATTEMPT.

Last night at 8 O'Clock fire was
discovered, by colored man, in a rear
room of a frame residence on Dwyer
avenue, near the corner of West Nj
eva street, which was occupied by a
family named Levy, but the family
was not at home at the time. The
alarm was given from the Black Ele-
plant saloons box, No. 124, and the
department responded promptly. but
on account of several streets being
open for the sewer work the engines
had to do good deal of round about
travelling before the place was reach
ed. There are several suspicious cir
cumstances connected with this at

ing investigated. The back door had

How to Clean Goatskin Rugs.

There are two methods of cleansing
white goatslSin rugs. If not very much
soiled, wet q soft cloth with naphtha
and rub the hair vigorously, doing a
small portion at time; then hang the
rug upon the line in the open air that
the odor may disappear. Do this work
IN the daylight end have no fire in the
room while using the naphth- If it is
necessary to wash the rug choose a
COOL, windy day for the purpose Throw
half pint of household ammonia into
a tub containing about four gallons of
water. Place the rug in the tub and
allow 1t to remain there about 80 min
utes; shake thoroughly in the water,
rinse carefully in lukewarm water. and
hang II in the shade in the open air.
When dry it will be found very stiff,
but may be softened by hard rubbing
and combing with the fingers.-Chi-

sum Of 500 for their work. They de-
