How to Manicure Your own Nails.

A woman is judged by her nails, as a
man $ standing and profession are known
by his hat. Of course young woman
from any of the manicure establishments
will do your nails for the consideration
of 81, but if you consider this too ex-
pensive, or find it inconvenient to send
for her always, you can attend to your
own nails just as we'll, and with an
outlay Of 81. so have enough powder
ongaline, emery boards, pasth and or
ange sticks to last for long time.
The fingers should be held for ten
minutes in hot water in which small
mixture of rosewater and grated soap
has been poured, then dried carefully,
and the cuticle pushed back, never cut,
until the half moon at the bottom Of the
nail, which is considered quite work
Of beauty, is exposed.
The nails are then shaped, points be-
ing considered by the ultra critical very
bad taste. The oval shape reigns su-
preme.
A bit of powder is applied, then the
pink paste, more powder, and the first
polisher is used. A very exaggerated
polish is not desirable. After the hands
are well washed the second polisher,
which must not be touched with the
powder, is used. If there are any stains
under the nails, they may be removed
by tying bit Of cotton on the orange
stick and moistening it with ongaline.

HOW TO CLEAN STEEL.
Also TO Remove Rust and Get a Good
poiish.

Also to Remove Rust and Get a Good
Polish.
If the steel is only furnished, almost
the best thing to apply is rottenstone
and soap; it should be laid on with a
soft flannel quickly and firmly, and inn
mediately be polished with leather;
but if there are any signs of rust on the
articles, try the following: Dissolve
one-fourth of an ounce of camphor in
nearly half pound of lard; when the
latter is quite melted carefully remove
all the scum, and when nearly cold and
set, mix with the lard as much black
lead as will give it rich iron color.
Rub the ornaments with this mixture
and leave them for "a hours Polish
them with an old linen rag and soft
brush that will 20 into the crevices II
all the Tenders, ETC., were rubbed every
other day with leather, and once a
fortnight with a paste, there would
never be any reason for spending much
time over them. This applies to brass,
which looks so remarkably well when
it is cared for, and so Objectionable it
allowed TO remain tarnished. Lemon
juice, putt pomade, etc, are good occa-
sional remedies, but the leather fire.
quently used is the best in the long run.

How to Remove Stains From Marble.

Every houselieeper knows the stains
which will come on marble washbasins
and the trouble to which she has gone
in vain efforts to remove them. Some.
times lemon juice will take them off.
Again ammonia may be applied with
good effect
If this will not move them, little
sponge may be firmly attached to a
small stick and then dipped in hydro
chloric acid, with which the stain
should be rubbed. As soon as it shows
signs of yielding the marble should be
covered with water and all the wet,
both acid and water, rubbed off with
another and larger sponge.
This may be repeated. if necessary,
but the acid should not be allowed to
remain long on the marble. To restore
the lost polish afterward, make paste
with water Of oxide of tin and apply
with a soft cloth.

THOUSANDS AT STAKE.

Mayor Phelan Says the Jones Bill May
Cost the City Large Sums for Fees.
Mayor Phelan and Chief Crowley will
confer. Mayor Phelan has matter on
hand which he considers of prime i'm
portance and it is very likely that he will
call upon the Chief OF Police to-day. He
thinks he has discovered, in what seems
on the face Of it comparatively harmless
measure, the possibility of an addition of
$4,000 per annum to the expenses of this
City and County without any correspond
ing benefit. TINS measure is known as
tho Jones bill and its purpose is declared
to be to make the Police Courts of this
City and County courts of record.
The difference between courts of record
and those that are not courts OF record or
one difference at least, is that the former
can pay jurors for their services. So
Mayor Phean finds a connection between
turning the Police Courts into courts of
record and the provisions of another law
which gives courts of record power to pay
jurors.
"The Jones bill LOOKS innocent enough" !"
said Mayor Phelan, "but 1 am satisfied
that il it shall pass it will be possible to
add 5000 per month to the City and
County's expense bill for Jurors fees. l
have written to Senator Mahoney about
the matter, which | consider one of great
importance"

WITH a LONG KNIFE.
George McWilliams, Prisoner in the
City Jail, Cut His Throat.

Ueorgs mcWnliams, Prisoner in the
City Jail, Cut His Throat.
George McWilliams, an irmate of the
City Prison, attempted suicide yesterd ay
morning by cutting his throat. The un-
fortuhate man has recently shown signs
OF softening OF the brain, and Captain
Robinson, in charge OF the Jail, allowed
his prisoner many privileges not usually
granted, hoping to make his lot more
bearable.
McWllliams came to this City from his
Arizona home over a week ago. He then
had IN charge a bunch of cattle cen
signed to James McDermott the whole
sale butcher. He stopped at the Ahlborn
House and while under the influence of
liquor he created disturbance. His ar
rest followed. and yesterday he paid a fine
of $40 in the Police Court.
1t was so evident that the man was
mentally wrong that Captain Robinson
detained him in the prison waiting night
time, when Mr.. McDermott was TO come
for him. In the meantime, as McWil-
liams mad refused all food for nearly a
week, the captain put him in charge of
trusty, who was ordered to feed the man
with bowl of soup in the kitchen.
1t was while the SOUP was being pre-
pared for him that McWilliams seized a
carving-knife and iabbed it into his throat.
severing the windpipe and an artery.
The prisoner fought desperately to COM
plete his work, and four men found IL a
difficult task to wrest the knife from his
grasp.
DR.. BuuneIl of the City Receiving Hos
pital sewed up the wounds, but there is
little hope of the mans recovery.
