SPONGlNG WOOLENS.
How to Renew Various Kinds of Glossy
Dress Goods.

Dress Goods.
Since the popularity of tailor cloths
IL seems strange that it has not become
the custom to sell cloths already
sfIonged. Dealers declare that the
average shopper is so taken with the
specious gloss of the unsponged cloth
that it does not pay to sell it without
this gloss. AS a matter of fact, this
gloss, which is removed by sponging,
is put on by the manufacturer at con
siderable trouble, merely to attract Gus
tom. Tailors invariably display
''sponged cloths" AS no such fictitious
value seems to attract the male Gus
toner or the woman who goes to the
tailor for her gown, it is quite probable
that the slight shrinkage to which n
sponged cloth is subject is cause for
the ordinary merchants objection to
the sale of sponged goods. The com
petition in all drygoods is so great that
the few pennies loss from the shrink
age of yard of goods would necessar-
lily affect the price that must be
charged.
1t is not always easy to find a regular
sponger Such persons charge about
three or four cents yard for spong-
ing doublc-width goods, and it pays to
employ him, because he does his work
thoroughly. Where this work must be
done at home the best way is to wiring
out in cold water sheets or pieces of cot.
ton the width of the cloth, which is usu-
ally yard and half, and lay the pieces
nt l,1 Il 4 III -
firmly. Wrap a layer of dry cotton
around this roll, and let it rest in some
place where it will not be disturbed
for "a hours. At the end of this time
unroll it gradually, and press it with u
hot iron on the wrong side until almost
or entirely dry. Hang it on a line for
IL hours, and it is ready for use. A great
many styles of dress goods not included
in tailor cloths are improved by spong-
ing. Pongee silk and other soft India
silks are always treated in this way by
expert drcssmakers to prevent them
fading. Any very glossy goods of such
high finish as to suggest their having
been passed over hot calendcrs to give
them specious gloss, should always
be tested with water to see if it spots
them. If it does, sponge a sample and
see what the goods look like after this

Mich. Two of the leading spirits in the
enterprise are Messrs. j. Wallace Page
and Walter Clement.
Commencingin in a small way some time
ago they fitted up coral in which were
inclosed a cub bear, a coyote, q wolf,
a wild cat and some deer, trophies of the
hunt and donations from time to time
of friendly Nimrods. These constituted
u sort of happy family, until their num-
bers increased to such an extent that it
no longer became possible to maintain
the necessary entente cordiale. Final
ly the advent of some trained elk made
an extension of the territory devoted
to this incipient ZOO u matter of neces-
sity.
A picturesque location of some A.
acres was purchased in the northwest
ern suburb of the city, which was
strongly fenced in and duly partitioned,
and into this the amateur menagerie
was turned loose. The park consists
of rich, rolling land, partially wooded,
with lots of good pasture, and minia-
ture lake of about three acres. In the
southwest corner is what was once
commodious farm dwelling, which Is
now used as u residence by the keeper of
the grounds. The original arrivals
turned loose here comprised q number
of deer, Indigenous to the forests of
upper Michigan. These were reinforced
by some IS elk, several of which have
been trained to harness. About one
third of the total number were females,
and during last summer number of
deer and elk were bred there.
A short time ago Mr.. Clement con-
celyed the idea of introducing herd of
buffalo, believing that the shaggy de-
scendants of the erstwhile monarchs of
the plains would increase, flourish and
grow fat. The elimination of this idea
was seen little later, when a massive
male specimen, about nine years old
with four females as a repnue, was i'm
ported and turned out TO browse on the
rich sward of Page park. The female
quartet of the combination consists OF
one yearling heifer and three COWS, just
past two years old, their weights rang
ing from COO to 900 pounds.
The procurement of the Page herd
was not altogether an easy matter. 1t
was one thing 10 resolve to get and
raise buifaloes, and quite another thing
to find the necessary nucleus for such u
family. In order to carry out his prof.
ect Mr.. Clement found it necessary, in.
stead of seeking the land of the setting
sun, to stalk the wilds and Businesses OF
Lincoln park, Chicago. Not long ago
he noticed that the superintendent OF
Lincoln park, II. C. Alexander, had de-
termined to dispose Of a surplus of
great variety of the animals there, in
order to introduce better and choicer
variety. Mr.. Clement at once decided
upon Lincoln park as his future field of
operations, but before he could get
there he found that the park authori-
ties had already sold several specimens
to the government, to be turned loose in
Yellowstone park. Mr.. Clement found,
however, that there were five more

"Why does all heaven move toward be-
seeching souls" Nathaniel Burton.
Empty the brook-fed basin high on the
mountain side,
Drain it drop by drop. and make 1t dry
as you will,
The forces that guide the waters no vacu-
um can abide,
They rush, they join, they link their'threads
in a foaming tide,
And down they hurry and hasten the
spent pool to refill.
Empty the sphere of glass, exhaust It's last
spent air,
Seal it and make 1t sure, and deem your
work complete,
Let but a pin pierce the fabric anywhere,
And the urgent and crowding ether, for
all your guarding care,
VIII enter and fill the space, and laugh
at your swift defeat.
So to the empty chambers of these crav-
ing souls of ours
Comes the invisible grace which breathes
from the Lord of Heaven,
Comes as comes to the sand the tide with
Its freshening powers,
Comes as come to the harvest the solac-
ing summer showers.
AS to thirst of the desert the draft which
is life is given.
Only be ready and wait, and Heaven shall
haste to bless
Empty the old wine out and make a
place for the now,
Swifter than rushing wind shall the force
divine down press,
And the pitiful Lord instead of the want
ard the loneliness
Shall give the peace of peace and the
fullness of joy to YOU.

LeT THIS WORLD BE FOR WAN,

If God ever manifested his power on
the mountains of JudHa or the shores of
Galilee, he is also active throughout
America today, and his hand can be
seen shaping events i'll New York, Chi
cago, New Orleans and st. Louis, rs
Bible history tells us he shaped the
events Of Sodom, Babylon, Damascus
and Nineveh. Many people say, "'Do
not mix religion with politics" but
that is just what is needed. Not sec
tarianism and politics, because sectari-
anism is irreligion. But the need Of
the hour is to take the commandment
'Ihou shalt not lie' out of the Bible
and mix it with everyday business.
Take it to the Merchants Exchange,
even if it burns a hole through the floor,
and also place it at the counter of the
dry goods house and grocery store, even
If half the wheels Of traffic cease. We
must take the command 'Thou shalt
not steal' and mix it with St Louis
politics. even if the mixture causes an cx-
plosion. We must continue to stir il and
rub it in, even if many Of our rulers be
forced to give up their drunken fcasts
for prison fare and substitute striped
clothes for broadcloth.
The foremost need of the army Of
righteousness III this world at the pres
ent time is not for more soldiers, but
for better generalship; not an increase
in the number Of privates, but for few
bold commanders who will introduce
discipline and order into that chaos Of
moral and religious sentiment, now
largely dissipated by eternal strife. Tho
church must stop thoorizing and quor-
reling about the nature of God and be
gin to do Gods work 1t must stop de-
voting the chief part of its energies to
the study of ancient literature and mod
ern theories which treat of his disposi
tion and proceed to realize his kingdom

Geese, Pigs and Plums.

a gentleman living in eastern Geor-
gia owned pair of geese and some
half-grown pigs, both of which resort
ed to a small plum thicket on the hill
side, to pick up the fallen fruit. A
small branch of one of the trees was
broken and bent down to the ground,
and the geese had somehow discovered
that by catching the end of the branch
in their bills and shaking the tree by
means of it, they could bring down the
plums. The pigs, seeing what was GO
ing on, soon found it for their interest
to follow the geese to the plum thicket.
The geese would shake the tree, and
the sound of a grateful shower of fruit
would be heard; but before they could
eat the plums the pigs would have
greedily gathered up most of them,
Greatly eXasperated, and with good
reason, one of the geese would seize
pig by the ear, while the other
marched on the other side of him,
screaming and scolding. In this way,
beating poor piggy with their wings at
every step, they would escort him to
the top of the hill and there let him go.
Then they would return to shake the
tree again, with n similar result. This
scene, says a correspondent, | have
witnessed daily during the plum sea-
son.-Youth's Companion.

RAILROAD RECElVERSHlPS AND RE
ORGANIZATIONS.


Chief Justice Russell, in his address
before the American Bar association,
touched upon the question of railroad
rCceiverships. He showed how great in
justice is done to the stockholders and
suggests a remedy. He says:
MANY of the securities represent in
vestmcnts of more than their face val.
uc Capital stock has been frequently
issued without payment, often as IL
bonus to go with the bonds. In this
way the money Of creditors has been
invested and the control of the property
retained by the dcbtor-the railway
company. The failure of Il railway COM
pany finds the managers united and
fully prepared for the emergency which
they inevitably have forescen, while it
finds the creditors scattered, ignorant
and frightened and entirely unroady to
act. What has happened in practice?
We have seen the managers, while stout
ly denying up to the last moment that
any such step was contemplated or that
the property was in any way embar-
iasscd, secretly prepare bill i'll equity
Ind without Notice to any one interested
Tie 1t i'll court of the United States,
skiing for the appointment Of receivers.
As matter Of fact, in every case the
proceedings have been collusive The
managers Of the insolyent company have
controlled 10th sides Of tlrs litigation.
The selection Of receivers is matter of
| the deepest concern to great many
persons There sGOuld he no uudue
haste in the choice of such officers. A
restraining order will hold everything
until after rotico and hearing, leaving
| the property meanwhile to be managed
by its officers as before. Every bank
rupt or insolvent law that we have
known has left the choice of assignees
to the creditors and no reason exists for
not applying this rule to railway re,
ceiyerships.

young mans place was taken by a sleek
looking gentleman, who got single
egg with brown bread and a glass OF
water, uIon the destruction of which he
drew from his rear coat tail pocket n
small parcel, took therefrom glass
about as big as "A thimble, and poured
some sort of medicine into it, which he
tossed off with an air of patient resigna-
ton. A woman with face that would
split wood sat just beyond, reading o
newspaper through n pair of gold
glasses between desultory nibbles of
dry toast and furtive assaults on little
metal teapot on her right. The tea
and the toast cost five cents each, but
she got five dollars worth out of them.
She looked daggers at young gourmet
across the way, who began breakfast
with an omelet, called for q clean plate
and got away with u huge veal outlet
and fried potatoes and two glasses of
milk, closing things with two big sec
tions of fruit cake as an evidence of
good faith.
Such terrible abuses of the human
stomach as can be witnessed in these
places would frighten n savage. Dur
ing business hours an amount of food
is bolted within a few minutes-or, ut
least, but half masticated-that ought
TO have claimed half or threc-quarters
of an hour. The women, as rule, eat
sparingly. Women in restaurants In
