This burglar story was related last

Above all things che admires savoir

raised or to lose ones self possession
was a crime and stamped the unhappy
person as a plebeian of hopeless degra.

forced to admit that he must have been
@ gentleman in reduced circumstances.
She found him in her room after din,
ner when came to get her carriage
cloak. AS she entered he stood before
the dressing table thoughtfully and
gracefully smoothing his hair with her
ivory brush.
He turned pleasantly at her little cry,
and then his face expressed the most
profound modification and amused en-
barrassment. Really, he said, Il beg

traordinary thing lam so very absent,

bowed himself out.

HINTS.

Eggs to be readily digested should
either be boiled very soft or hard
enough to crumble readily. In the in
termediate stage the Rlbumen is 80
tough as to be insoluble by the gastric
juice. There is no happy medium be-
tween the three or four minute egg
and the twenty. Boiled eggs, however,
to be at their best, should not be boiled
ct all, but it desired hard should be
kept just below the boiling point for
twenty minutes. For soft eggs, put in
cold water, allow to just come to a boil,
and they will be creamy and delicious
all the way through.-Good House

The very best disinfectant and de-
odorizer known is copperas. A double
handful dissolved in a bucket of water
and used to wash drain pipes and re
ceptacles of waste material, will keep
such places above suspicion. The water
in pitchers and fower-holders should
be changed every day. On attention
to such seeming ly trivial details may
hang a human life.-Won ankind.
When it is required to use carbollc
acid as a disinfectant, it should be
mixed with boiling water. This
promptly overcomes the usual antagon-
ism between the acid and the water, and
converts into them a permanent solu
ton which will keep for weeks.
