Trying to Be n Lady.

FROM the chicago Evening PCSt.
Poor Liluokalani is trying hard to be a
real lady and forget that she was born
savage. And, wonderful to relate, she is
not receiving as much encouragement from
the public as one might think she deserved.
AS full-fedged barbarian the ex-queen is
a prime curiosity, but when she ignores her
immensely interesting past and tries to ape
us in everything, then she is decidedly STU
pid Still, 1t is mean to unearth disagree
abla little incidents belonging to the days
when this ambitious woman dwelt in dark
ness, and right and wrong were not proper
ly focused in Der dim vision, according to
eral years back Mrs. Dominis took part in
a little function that would have been
quite proper only in Rider Haggards
She" 1t all came about through a cello
bratiOn in honor of a popular goddess in
the Hawaiian Islands, Pele by name. Pro-
ceedirg to the Volcano Hotel, descending
to the lake of fire. she threw into the
seething crater a live pig and a live fowl
by way of sacrifice to this exacting deity,
accompanying the act with heather
chant obligato. Now the ex-royal lady de-
MES the charge in toto. In the wild re-
ligious rites Of the natives she declares
she never participated, although she ac-
knowledges considering many of them as
harmless conformity to ancient customs
comparing them to some of our innocent
observances, notably standing under the
mistletoe." Really, this is straining a
point. How can there be any resemblance
between standing under the mistletoe and
throwing an unwilling pig and a reluctant
fowl into a molten lake? This may be a
harmless procedure in itself. though the
victims held other views, doubtless.

STAINS AND MILDEw.

Easy Ways i'm Which Both May BE
Removed.
From the New York Times.
This is emphatically the season of fruit
stains and mildew. Fortunately, too, it is
the season of grass bleaching and hot sun
shine. Midew is easily taken out Of white
goods with chloride of lime, but it cannot
be used on colored clothes Put small
amount of lime in cold water and stir until
it is entirely dissolved; then strain through
cheese cloth and immerse the widowed
article. Work up and down, and rs soon
the spots have bleached out rinse 1t
through three or four waters and dry.
Fruit stains of all kinds will come out of
white goods if they are taken in time and
treated exactly right. Raspberry and
strawberry stains will disappear if boiling
hot soft water is poured over them. Ok
alic acid will remove all other fruit stains,
and a bottle should always be kept in the
laundry. AS it is very poisonous, it should
be plainly labeled and kept out of the way
of children. Get the acid in crystalized
fern, put in a bottle, and pour cold water
over it. If part remains undissolved, add
water as tine solution Is used. 1t is sure
to remove fruit, leather, or ink stains.
Touch only the spots and rinse quickly and
thoroughly when they disappear. For lace
or muslin add a little sal soda or ammonia
to the first rinsing water Dilute the acid
at first, and make it stronger if neces-
sary.
Boiling hot soft water will remove tea,
coffee. or chocolate stains. If tea stains
are of long standing, soak In glycerine and
wash the latter out with cold water.
Use diluted ammonia for orange and
lemon stains.
Make a thick paste of lemon or pieplant
juice and salt and starch for red iron rust.
and expose to the SUM- If one application
is not effectual, try again. Oxaiic acid is
just as sure for black iron rust.
Alcohol or molasses will take ont grass

Nothing will remove blood stains better
than Geld soap suds, to which kerosene has
been added. Kerosene will also remove tar

Machine oil vaseline will come out
easily when washed with soap and cold

When the color has been taken out of col

is also an excellent restorative of color.

Peculiarities of ostrfche..

From the BIOLOGIST.
Considerable misconception prevails as to
the manner in which the ostrich runs. 1t
seems to be still generally held that when
running it spreads out it's wings. and, aid
ed by them, skins lightly over the ground.
This is not correct. When a bird really
settles itself to run it holds it's head lower
than usual, and a little forward, with a
deep loop in the neck. The neck vibrates
sinuously, but the head remains steady,
thus enabling the bird, even at top speed.
to look around with mistaken glance in
any direction. The wings lie along the
sides about on level with or little high
er than the back, and are held loosely, just
free of the plunging thigh" There is no
attempt to hold them extended or to derive
any assistance from them as organs of
flight.
When an ostrich, after hard run, is
very tired, its wings sometimes droop: this
Is due to exhaustion. They are never. by a
running bird exerting itself to the utmost.

weight or to increase its pace. But the
wings appear to be of great service In turn
