BEST METHOD OF CLEANING
BLACK DRESS GOODS.

Every one has or wants black gown
nowadays, and such goods as serge,
cheviot, cashmere, Henrietta, etc, are
easily cleaned. First remove the
grease spots with naphtha, and remem-
Der that this fluid is very explosive
when exposed to either light or fire.
Make lather of warm soapsuds, using
good, not strong soap, and a tea
spoonful of borax to every two quarts
of water. Into this dip the goods up
and down and wash between the
hands; then wiring gently and partly
dry; hang in the shade, and when
nearly dry iron on the wrong side with
a moderately warm iron. Always
rinse in luke-warm water. and iron
until the material is perfectly dry.
Never rush fabric that is being re-
novated on the washboard, nor wiring
it tightly, and in using naphtha reman-
Der that it roughens the hands, and
that after using it is we'll to put vase
line npon them and to wear old gloves.
Wash alapaca in the same manner as
cashmere, adding a little gum-arabic

goods are of a rusty color restore them
by sponging with amonia and alcohol.
Always use piece of the same ma

Life Living Oxygen.

Pure oxygen in tanks now forms a
regular part or the equipment of all
modern hospitals. 1t is only of recent
years that the wonderful value Of the
health-gi giving gas in emergency cases
has been thoroughly demonstrated.
Oxygen, in cooper or galvanized iron
reservoirs, holding five hundred or one
thousand gallons, is now furnished by
all medical-supply dealers, and it is a
common thing for hospital surgeon
to go to the telephone, ring up dealer,
and order a tank of the resuscitating
gas. It's prompt use in cases of coal gas
asphyxiation Is invaluable. Thousands
of lives are saved annually by the
promp use Of this remedy In former
years the usual treatment for asphyxi-
alton was that given to revive a nearly
drowned patient-inducing respiration
by manipulating the arms and forcing
air in and out of the lungs. 1t was
slow method to revive a man suffering
from the deadly effects of gas, and
chances were usually about one in ten
for recovery. Now, where the oxygen
pumping method is used with reason

THE HOTEL RALEIGH.
(From The HOTEL WoRLD.)

Mr.. T. J. Tally, manager of the ele-
giant Hotel Raleigh, Washington, ID.
C, is man who has steadily worked
upward until he has attained his pres
ent fine position. The Hotel World
has not been able to discover when or
where Mr.. Tally first saw the light of
day, or where he first engaged in hotel
work, but the writer remembers of
meeting Mr.. Tally more than fifteen
years ago, when he was in the office of
the Gibson House, Cincinnati. In later
years Mr.. Tally was also associated
with the Hotel Emery in that city.
Subsequently he was for some years
manager of the Sweetwater Park Hotel
at Lithia Springs, Ga, the large health
resort near Atlanta. More recent y
yet he was for about two years steward
of the Nicollet House, Minneapolis,
from where he resigned to become
steward of the Auditorium Hotel in
Chicago, remaining several years, and
Tesigning some months ago to accept
the management of the Hotel Releigh
at Washington. Mr.. Tally is a man
who does not depend upon any super
ficial qualities for popularity or success.
He is young man and fully deserves
the success he has attained.

HOW TO SPEND THE HONEY
MOON.

"Where do the newly wed spend
their honeymoon ," somebody asked
the other dav and a girliSh matron,
whose dignitieS are not more than SIX
weeks old, promptly assured the in
quirer that this winter the Maine
woods, where moose are found, and
Canadian woods, where carbon are
hunted, are gay with bridal parties.
"It seems a chilly thing to do" as
sented the little wife, gayly, but It's
tremendous fun, and far ahead of sen
timental journey to the Mediterranean
trousseau baggage behind them, and
disappear, with guides, tents, and
mountains of fur, into the big forests,
for fortnight's camping. Perhaps its
the novelty of the conditions that make
everything seem SO amusing, and some
of the honeymoon hunters have gone
as far North as Nova Scotia Most of
the brides shoot well themselves but
even if they don't care to try their
chances at one of the lords of the
Northern forests they find the snow
shoe tramps fun enough, act as rifle
bearers for thier husbands, learn to
draw marvellous melodies from the
huge moose-call, visit the lumbermen'
camps, and thrive on the crystalline air
and the fresh game cooked over the
huge campfire One bride brought
down moose to her own credit, and
the agreement is that the horns and
head of the big beast, when mounted,
shall be the first piece of furniture
taken into the new home. This, it is
supposed, will bring great good luck. "

CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhaued con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
,stachian Tube. When this tube gets
infiamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result
and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to It's normal
condition, hearing will be distroved
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but all lnt1amed condition of the nu-
cous surfaces.

In about the center of the crater was
. cone about sixty-five feet high which
rad been forming for some two weeks
mast and it was through the top OF
this that streams of molten lava were
thrown hundred feet or more into
the air at frequent intervals spreading

beautiful reflections. This cone it has

of this over the sides.
