JUST WHAT SHE WANTED.-A lady
whose organ of benevolence was not
properly developed, once sent the fol-
lowing advertisement to London
paper:
IA lady, delicate in health, wishes
to meet with a useful companion. She
must be. domesticated, musical, early
riser, amiable, of good appearance,
and have some experience in nursing.
Total abstainer preferred. Comforta-
BILE home. No salary"
A few days after, the advertiser re-
ceived hamper, labelled:
"This side up-with care-perish-
able.' -.
On opening it, she found a large
tabby cat with letter tied to her tail.
/ The letter ran thus:
"Madam: In answer to your ad-
vertisement, I am happy to furnish
YOU with very useful companion,
which will exactly suit your require
ments. She is domesticated, good
vocalist, an early riser, possesses an
amiable disposition, and is considered
handsome. She has had great ex-
perience in nursing, having raised q
large family. I need scarcely add
that she is a total abstainer. AS q
salary to her is no object, she will
serve you faithfully in return for a
comfortable home"
1t would be putting it very mildly
to say that this reply quite upset the
lady's equilibrium.

D@ A new generation has risen which
knows little of great Archbishop
Whately; and the story is brief, so it
may be told for the last time. Ayoung
aide-de.camp at a great party at the
lord ieutenant's approached the pre-
late, and said, "Does your Grace know
the difference between an ass and an
archbishop" "No," was the grave
answer. Then the youth went on,
"An ass has cross on his back, but
an archbishop has cross on bis
breast" every good" said the arch
bishop. "Now will you tell me what
is the difference between a young aide
de-camp, like yourself, and an ass p
81 don't know, said the youth.
"Neither do l." said the archbishop,
and walked away.

~ "How much for the trip ?" asked
a tourist in Palestine of boatman who
had taken him to several points of in
terest on the Sea of Gallilee.
"Ten shekels, SIR"
"What!" exclaimed the traveller
40 shekels? Why that's an outrage
Gus price"
"Can't help it sir. That's what
folks have paid ever since the sea was
here"
"Well," growled the voyager, as he
handed over the money, ~ don't won
der that old Peter tried to walk it."

THE VALUE OF LEMONS.


Keep lemons in the house, if posi-
BILE, as they are sure to be in demand
for more purposes than one, and are
very healthful. 1t is claimed. where a
large quantity Of lemons are pur.
chased, and there is fear of their not
keeping till wanted for use, that II
they are placed in jar covered with
clear water, and the water changed
each day, they will keep as long as
desired, and are as fresh when re.
moved from the jar as when first pur-
chased.
There are few things as efticacious
for breaking up cold as hot lemon.
ade, taken just before bedtime. 1t is
best, to render this more effective, to
bathe the feet of the patient in hot
water and mustard just before retir-
ing, then give hot lemonade to drink.
Put the patient to bed almost imme-
diately thereafter, there to remain
we'll covered until morning, when, un.
less there is something more serious
than cold, the latter will have al
most wholly disappeared.
To make good lemonade, take a
goblet of hot water, and into it squeeze
the juice of one good-sized lemon, and
sweeten to taste. This makes strong
lemonade, and may not be fancied by
some; but it is one Of this kind that
will do the most good when used as a
medicine. For a cough, roasted or
baked lemon is good. Put good
sized lemon in the oven, and let it
remain until baked, which will be
when the whole is very soft; then
take out, and add quantity of sugar
to make it thick syrup. Take a
teaspoonful of this frequently, keeping
it warm, and, unless in very obsti'
nate case, it will effect cure in a
short time.
The Juice of lemon taken in the
morning while fasting is often a pre-
ventative of those attacks to which
bilious people are 80 frequently sub
jected. Lemon juice rubbed over the
hands each night before retiring will
keep them soft and white. 1t is good
for removing tan, and is wonderful
whitener of the skin.
1t is also excellent for taking out
stains from the hands. Women who
are careful of their complexiens, and
are fond of vinegar on curtain foods,
would do we'll to use a few drops OF
lemon juice when any acid is desired,
as vinegar has bad effect on the skin.
A piece of lemon bound on a corn,
changing for fresh piece each day for
three days, is said to loosen the corn
that it may be easily removed. Do
not throw away bits of lemon from
which the juice has been extracted, for
they are good to keep for cleaning
purposes. When the juice is not con-
venient, they are nice to rub on the
hands to remove any ink stains and
other discolorations. A piece of lemon,
dipped in salt and rubbed briskly over
a copper kettle, will give it good
polish.
Never eat or allow to be eaten bits
of lemon left standing for any length
of time more especially where they have
so remained in sick room. Do not
throw away any lemon peel, but dry it
in the oven, and keep for tiavoring.
A bit of this dried peel cooked in ap-
pie sauce, or put in an apple pie, gives
a delicious flavor that nothing else
imparts.

@ A London society woman, wish
ing to give fancy ball recent ly, was
besieged by letters, after her invita-
tions were out asking permission to
appear in ordinary evening dress.
Alarmed at the prospect of colorless
ball, she automatically replied that
any woman over 35 might come in
evening dress. The ball was a brill
liant affair and every woman came in a
character gown.

TO BE GREATER.

The matter hangs fire, but recent
that the greater New York" is to be
a reality. The opposition to this con-
summation is earnest and even bitter
in the city of Brooklyn, in Long Island
towns and at other points which it is
proposed to annex, but this opposition
is proving to be unavailing-the indi-
cations are that the city of New York
will absorb Brooklyn, Richmond coun-
ty Flushing. Long Island city and
dozen other communities. Thus there
are rivers and fields and farms that
will soon be within the corporate linn
it's of the city of New York.
With the present scheme carried out
and 1t is likely to prevail-New York,
within three years, will outstrip Lon
don and take rank as the largest city
in the world we find interesting sta
tistics lately printed which show that
within the limits of the city of New
York one twenty-second part of the
people of the United States will live.
The population of the city will be
about S,15O,OOO
For the accomplishment of consoli
dation the Legislature has provided for
the appointment of a commission of
fifteen men to whom all the prelmi
naries are entrusted. A vote is to be
taken within the territory to be en-
braced in the enlarged city; the cleo
ton will be held in November of next
year. Doubtless the scheme for con-
solidation will carry; If it does, the
greater New York is to organize under
a new charter, January l. 1898.
Thereafter, another step is probable.
The wealth and population included
within the enlarged city will meet,
many times over, all the requirements
of statehood. The Harlem river, long
famous as the dividing line for election
returns, is likely to become the boun-
Diary of commonwealth, and, with the
advent of the next century. we may
read the presidents proclamation Of
the new state of Manhattan.

THE OPERA HOUSE.

IL is In order to say. in reply to
many inquiries that have come, that
no selection has been made Of a site
for the opera house which IL is pro-
posed to build in this city out Of funds
raised by popular subscription. Thus
far, no person is authorized to choose
a site; the location will not be named
until the money is raised. When that
Is done. the subscribers to the fund
will be discussed and settled in open
session.
First of all, the fund for the opera
house building must be assured. Our
judgment is, with last weeks expert
ence to go by. that the money will not
be lacking. The canvass for funds is
not complete, but the response of the
citizens of Anaconda has been more
than generous. and the indications are
that the money wherewith 10 build and
equip an opera house will be on de-
post in the bank before the founda-
lions of the building are laid on Sat
urday night the lists showed a sub
scription OF nearly $4,000.
The belief OF the gentlemen who have
been circulating the list is that a total
of $4,000 will be reached before to-
morrow noon. This figure is exclusive
of what the principal corporations in
town may conclude to give-it is the
popular subscription" 1t is under
stood that an effort will be made 10,
day to secure signers at the smelling
works and at the business establish
ments in the city; the expectation is
that the response from these sources
will be liberal
II all goes well. the opera house sub
scription can be closed this week. That
will happen II the sum subscribed is
found 10 be ample for a building fund
the stipulation in the subscription list
is that, unless the full amount required
