NIarriaEe in India.

The result of Mrs. F. \. Stee!'s per-
sonal observation is that marriages in
India are singularly happy. There
are fewer cases Of unkindness and
violence than in Great Britain. The
dowry system. she AYERS. is Il great
protection to the wife. Every bride
takes her husband a dowry, which is Il
kind of marriage settlement against
unkindness. If she is badly treated
and thus compelled to go back to her
fathers house, the husband has to re-
turn her dowry; probably he has spent
it, and, as it is not often convenient for
him to refund the money. he takes care
to treat his wife we'll. Il think that a
similar system here would be good
thing" says the lady frankly.

Here is~a list which housekeepers
should paste up where it would be
handy when the query comes, advises

I've read it somewhere, but I can't re-
member to save my life!'' For fresh tea
and coffee stains use boiling water.
Place the linen stained over a large
bowl and pour through it boiling water
from the teakettle held at height to
insure force. Old tea and coffee stains
which have become 'sset'' should be
soaked in cold water first, then boil
ing.
For peach stains a weak solution of
chloride of lime, combined with infinite
patience. Long soaking is an essen
tial.
Grass stains may be removed by
cream tartar and water.
For scorch hang or spread the article
in the sunshine. For mildew, lemon
juice and sunshine, or if obstinate dis
solve one tablespoonful Of chloride of
lime in four quarts of cold water and
soak the article until mildew disap-
pears. Rinse very thoroughly to avoid
any chemical action upon the linen.
For wine stains sprinkle well with
salt, moisten with boiling water and
then pour boiling water through until
the stain disappears. For blood stains
use cold water first, then soap and
water. Hot water sets the stain.
For chocolate stains use cold water
first, then boiling water from the tea
kettle.
Fruit stains will usually yield to boil
ing water. but if not, oxalic acid NAV
be used, allowing three ounces of the
crystal to one pint of water. Wet the
stain with the solution, place over a
kettle of hot water in the steam or in
the sunshine. The instant the stain
disappears rinse we'll. Wet the stain
with ammonia to eounteract the acid

This will many times save the linen

Smaller and Much More Becoming

The theater hat has reformed. It has
seen the error of its ways and promises
to forsake its spreading brim and tow

which will be suitable for any face.
The very latest theater hat directly
from Paris IS made of three puffs of
sapphire blue velvet, one placed above
tie other and fastened together so that
they resemble huted crown. At one
side there is steel buckle which
catches bunch of lace and a couple of
loops Of sapphire ribbon. On the other
side is steel star. At the extreme
back an aigrette towers up and little
forward.
This hat is meant to be worn far back
on the head with the hair moderately
low. It looks very we'll above braid
and is particularly becoming to hair
that is turned straight back over POM

Storen, near Trondh jem. is the place

When TO himself he meekly said:

Just then far down the sylvan glen
A lone gray squirrel in merry glee
Did bark and frisk most merrily.

For twill not do to lose this game"
With step alert and look intent.
Down the mountain side he went.
The squirrel he'spied in a chestnut-tree,
HAPPY and frisky as he could be.
Bang! and through the mountain rang
A loud report that echoed far.
While to the ground, with bleeding wound
Dropped the squirrel with rhud and jar,
But with life enough TO scramble forth.
And with his blood 70 mark his path
Far up the trunk of chestnut-tree,
Where he lodged in security.
As the hunter. with anxious look,
Saw his game slip in the nook,
He valiantly threw or his coat,
Unbuttoned his collar from his throat.
He vowed a solemn oath-bound VOW:
I'll not go home without you. row.
Around the tree his arms entwined.
Up the body he gayly climbed.
But ere ne reached the coveted spot
His breath gave out. he had to stop.

Did shine with perspiration shed;

They now began to rip and split.
