all know that a good spraying
with kerosene emulsion made
with one gallon of kerosene to
one half gallon of soft soap and
one of soft water is oftentimes all
that is necessary for their destruc-
ton. This preparation is also
good for rose bushes or shrubs of
any kind attacked by insects.
Those who can thoroughly ap-
preciate the helpfulness of this
agent upon wash day, an emul-
sion made by slicing a bar of vel
low soap into enough soft water
to cover, and when thoroughly
melted beat in with an old spoon
about five or six tablespoonfuls of
oil beat until white and turn

and put over slow fire all white
clothes. Those most soiled at the
bottom. Put them right in dry
and stained as they may be, stir
two or three times and let come
to a boil slowly; take out into a
tub of hot water, carefully drain
ing off all the first water, and
very little sudsing will render
them fit to swing from the line
of any one with so little rubbing
that she who has been wont TO

bear will wonder at the transfor-
nation.
a little kerosene put into the
starch, a little upon a brown pa
per to smooth the llatirons. a few
drops put into water to clean
dirty chimneys, instead of soap {:
for cleaning windows, a little in
warm water, using no soap; a
little on cotton flannel to wipe
furniture, removing finger marks,
and anything sticky or gummy
that may collect thereon, or on
the paint as well-all will prove
effective. For cleaning those
everlasting dirty washbasins, try
it. Any kind OF machinery which
has been gummed by too much
oil or poor oil, may be treated to
a dose and then oiled anew, when
it will be found greatly improved.
Stoves, skates and all iron or
stell, nickel or metal of any kind
will keep much better if thor

SEWARD'S BIG BARGAIN.
Russia's Mistake in Selling Alaska
to Uncle Sam.

Thirty years ago Commissioner
Paulus Hersen persuaded the
government Of the Gar to sell all
Russian America for 81, 100000, or
little less than 2 cents an acre.
He had coasted along Kotzebue
Sound, in 1868, and after taking
farewell peep at st. MichaePs
Inlet, and the mouth of the
Yukon, did not hesitate to report
that "the value of that polar dis.
trict consisted chiefly of 1T seas
and its swamp pines, both of
which the Yankee trespassers
would be sure to exhaust within
the next twenty years. Within a
week the folly of the transfer
was contaminated. Four-fifths of
the territory has never yet been
surveyed, but the explored por-
tions of the humid coast lands are
known to contain larger and
more valuable forests than Maine
and Michigan taken together.
The fur yield of Alaska has
slightly increased on terra firmat
but the value of the fisheries has
doubled thrice since 1867, and
now reached an average of 45,-
100000 cans year for salmon
alone, besides thousands of bar.
rels of herring and about 10000
600 pounds of cod. Every man,
woman, and child forming the
population of this planet could
consume barrel of Alaska
salmon every month in the year,
for the next 100 generations, with
out affecting the extent Of the
yearly arriving shoals to any per-
ceptlble degree.
Coal in six varieties, including
Ignite, but also the valuable
bitumen known as camel coal,
has been discovered at half a
hundred different points Of the
great northland, and may yet ex-
clude eastern imports from the
Pacific markets as far south as
Los Angeles.
And to all that luck has now
added treasure trove of precious
metals, through it would be
mistake to suppose that the dis.
covery of placer mines dates from
the west Klondike bonanza.
The Moscovite monarchy, 1T is
true, Is 40 large, 80 unreasonably
and unconscionably overgrown,
that the czars could sell nine
other provinces the size of Alaska
and still have a comfortable rem
nant Of real estate; but it might
be questioned if that special car
did not almost give away the
most valuable tenth of his world
empire. For the southermost 500
miles the climate Of Alaska is
