Freight carUumbered l2,3i5 OF the New York.
New Haven and Hartford Railroad passed
through Darlington, Pawtucket, ono day last
week on the branch railroad. What that car
CONTAINED, where IL was from. or where IL was
going Is Ol 40 consequence. The numuer OF the
car; l2,3l5, Is all that. Is OF special Interest.
This number on freight cars is the fortunate
number To lind. 4 few years ago, and nrThaps
until to-day, commercial travellers aud who-
ever else was travelling much, or MAS much
about the railroad, were all the time looking for
TINS magic number in tho belief that 10 see II
was. II good omen, and wonderful wero the
stories loid OF the good fortune which fell TO
those, VINO were so happy AZ to see il. 1t is a
simple matter. and yet IL is not often a car Will
ms number comes into view. II is very likely
that had any other particular number been
chosen IL would have been as difficult 10 find H.
A gentleman, who saw this car last week had
been looking for 1t continually for more than
half a score of years, and during that time had
travelled thousands of miles. but his eyes had
not been blessed with a sight OF IL until Tues
day. He Is not so superstitions as TO fancy that
his fortune is 10 change because he has seen the
car with this number, hut his curiosity Is graft.

scnson-Lnc"-Trimmcd handkerchief.
Handkerchief next season will he gaudier
thnn ever before. They will be OF all the colors
Of the rainbow. in solids, stripes. plaids, polka
dots and figures. Even white ones will not DO
plain, for, when not heavily embroidered, they
will be lace trimmed, not with one edge of lace
as heretofore, but with several lace frills placed
one above the other and on both sides of the
handkerchief. for the fashionable article has
neither right nor wrong side.
Many samples shown have centres of solid
Colors- olOrs. not tints-with borders in con.
trastlng co.ors, plnids. checks. polka dots, and
pronounced floral designs. Other handker-
chiefs appear to he thin bits OF colorcd muslin
over which small flowers or leaves are strown.
To n careless observer they seem nothing more
or less than hcmstitched squares of printed
lawn. Close inspection shows a linen OF the
highly artistic design, stamped, as distinctly
on one side as the other. Black, navy blue,
scarlet. and brown handkcrchicfs embroidered
in white. black. or contrasting colors are to be
used by travellers and should always CORE
spond in color with the toilet, Travelling
one OF, the newest and d~aintiest handker-
chiefs to be seen is OF sheer white or light col
orei linen muslin. with n triple border OF finely
plated footing. The footing OF course is always
white. There, is no hrmstiIching, the first row
being whipped on a rolled edge, while the second
ROW + put on, one row on either side OF tho
handkerchief, just above. This handkerchief,
lnOngn so Simple tnnl II 'Oulu he easily made at
home, is especially dainty looking. and adapted
TO go with the most elegant toilet. Frills OF
as many as six rows being used TO the side. or
course unr great trouble with these dainty Bit
Of lacc-trimmcd muslin will be tho difficulty Of
having them washed. hut the dealers say this
objection Is overcome by the narTowness OF tho
lace, After washing, they need only to be
rubbed over with the iron, and when taken out
for use The lace Is pulled out between the nm
gers, making The handkerchief much freshcr in
appearance than II would be were the lace
pulled out on leaving the wash.

oilcloth and linoleum are ruined oftener in
the cleaning than in any other manner. Too
hot water and the free use Of soap are the usual
faults in the treatment they receive. Left half
wiped, they look very bright while wet, but
dingy and streakcd when dry. and the colors
soon crack and peel off. A soft flannel and luke.
warm water are the best things for general uso
upon oilcloth. and you should make sure that It
is thoroughly dried after washing. Equal parts
Of milk and warm water used upon oilcloth
brighten and improve It..
