The New York Tribune" thus speaks
of the big-hat crusade:
| The news from Ohio brought a gleam
or nope to many weary New York
hearts yesterday 1t seemed as if the
chances were not dead for a reform
here at home. There was bill in the
New York Legislature something over
year ago for the abolition Of big hats
in theaters but it had some absurd
features, and these, curiously enough,
prevented its passage. 1t has often
been said of late that there were too
many theaters in New York, but there
might be room even for a few more, ii
the lawmakers of the State would but
assert their just authority and guaran-
tee that he who goes to the theater shall
see the play.
II Is dnOIneT SdQ TACT Inal the Iitdu-
ayers have grown callous on this point
They are weary with the much bother
that they have had and they long only
for rest Some of them yesterday
seemed scarcely to know that anything
had happened in Ohio and others
seemed to think that it did not interest
them. I'VE have done all we could to
| overcome a big-hat nuisance" said
few, land it has done no good. If
there is anything to be done somebody
beside the managers must do it"
1t may readily be supposed that, as
lie does not rise up and destroy the the
ater, the manager does not care much
about hats one way or the other Now
and then some man in agony comes out
to the box Office and complains that he
cannot see the play that he has paid to
see. Then it is common for an usher
to go down the aisle and ask the woman
to take off her hat. Now and then she
does it but usually she does not. Then
the manager gives the man another
seat, if he has one to give, and If he
has not there is nothing to be done ex-
cept to return the price of the seat.
There is nothing to make the manager
there are not many managers who are
SO goOd-natured as that. Really, Ohio
is a great State, and one from which
| even greater States may learn some
| thing.

The bloomer ball, the bloomer ball,
The fad of fadS is coming,
The trailing skirts are on the wall
And bicycles are humming.
The most exact cannot escape
The tyrant mans rude scanning,
Nor hide their shape, or lack of shape
With all their careful planning.
The up-to-date has come to stay,
With all it's rage for fadding
And what belated sisters lack
Must be made up with padding.
No further talk of flower limbs"

Have landed on their legs.

Let no complaining swain,
Lift up his voice against their right

That those inflated sleeves,

But be transferred as bifurcates
To take the place of dresses,
And not puffed up as walls of cloth
To fence off our caresses.

LEMONS GOOD FOR HEALTH.
Various Medicinal Uses of the Popular
Acid Fruit.

! Lemons rid the system of humors and
/ bile and leave no ill-effect Weak, de-
bilitated people oftentimes may be
greatly benefited by a free use of them.
Lemon juice should be diluted with
water or sweetened sufficiently so that
/ it will not produce a drawing or burn
/ ing sensation in the throat. Clear
! lemon juice is very irritating the
powerful acid Of the juice will cause
/ Inflammation if the use of it is con-
/ tinued any length of time A bilious
attack may soon be overcome by taking
/ the Juice of one or two lemons in a
goblet of water before retiring and in
the morning before rising Where taken
on an empty stomach the lemon has an
opportunity to work on the system.
Continue the use of them for several
weeks. Lemons are an excellent remedy
! in pulmonary diseases. When used for
/ lung trouble from six to nine a day
should be used. More juice is obtained
/ from lemons by boiling them. Put the
! lemons into cold water and bring slowly
+ to a boil. Boil slowly until they begin
! to soften; remove from the water and
when cold enough to handle squeeze
until all the juice is extracted, strain
and add enough loaf or crushed sugar
+ to make it palatable, being careful not
to make it too sweet. Add about twice
as much water as there is juice. This
preparation may be made every morn
/ ing, or enough may be prepared one
/ day to last three or four days, but it
must be kept in a cool place.
| Lemon juice sweetened with loaf or
/ crushed sugar will relieve a cough.
For feverishness or an unnatural thirst
soften a lemon by rolling it on hard
surface, cut off the top, add sugar and
work it down into the lemon with a
/ fork. then suck it slowly During the
warm months a sense of coolness, COM
I fort and invigoration can be produced
! by a free use of lemonade. For six large
glasses of lemonade use six large, juicy
| lemons: roll on a hard surface, so that
| the Juice can be easily extracted. Peel
and slice Add sufficient sugar to
sweeten and stir it well into the juice
before adding the water Hot lemonade
will break up a cold if taken at the start.
Make it the same as cold lemonade
/ only use boiling water instead of cold
water and use about one-half as much
sugar A piece of lemon or stale bread
moistened with lemon juice bound on a
corn will cure it. Renew night and morn
/ ing. The first application will produce
soreness, but if treatment is persisted
! in for a reasonable length of time a
cure will be effected. The discomfort
/ caused by sore and tender feet may be
lessened, If not entirely cured, by ap-
plying slices of lemons on the feet To
cure chilblains. take a piece of lemon,
sprinkle fine salt over it and rub the feet

Juice will relieve roughness and vege-
table stains on the hands. After hav-
| ing the hands in hot soap suds rub them

vent chapping and make the hands soft
