THE HOUSEHOLD.
Care Of the Piano-The Poster PILLOW
NoveltY--Lemon Pies That Never
Fai1--A Change In Shades.

1t is well to sometimes rub the wires
of piano gently with q chamois Or
flannel cloth and to pass soft muslin
over the sounding board by means Of
slender point, which will slip between
the wires and engage the cloth, which
may then be carefully moved over the
surface, taking off the dust. A steel
crochet hook or a stout knitting needle
will answer the purpose.
1t is advisable to keep little cam
phor gum inside the case, for if the
moth miller has been attracted by the
felt used in various parts, it will serve
as means Of protection against the
moth. The temperature Of the room
should be moderate and as even as may
be. Extreme heat that is drying should
always be avoided, as when piano
stands, as is often the case, too near
stove, a register or CRATE fire. An in
strument should be opened for a short
time each day; if it is not much used,
this is especially desirable.
Often there appears a sort of bloom
upon the case or the wood looks dingy
and seems to be in need Of cleaning It
is, however, very uncertain work to at
tempt to improve the fine finish Of a
piano with polish, SO much of which is
advertised as making piano look like
new Instead the method recommended
and used by professional tuner is one
that may be safely tested, with the GER
tainty that it will not be the means of
gathering additional dust, as oils and
polishes are apt to do.
Take the finest toilet soap and luke
warm water and wash little of the pi-
ano at time, as you would wash boys
dirty face, using soft cloth, such as
canton flannel, working upon a space
not larger than your hand. Wipe it off
with clear water and rub we'll with
clean canton flannel until it is perfectly
dry and we'll polished. The fine soap
suds does not affect the original finish
in the least but simply removes that
which obscures it, and if rubbed abso-
lutely dry with brisk motion the re-
suit is that the piano is cleaned and
frightened. Enid e. Bennett in Wom-
ans Home Companion.

Mrs. Wilbur f. Crafts, whose noble
husband was the first to respond to
Miss Wizards appeal for money after
she made her ever memorable speech
in behalf of the Temple at the National
Convention at Buffalo, like her hus
band is warm friend of the "House

from her contains the following inter-

should tell of a remark made to me
last spring while travelling in the
South. got into conversation with
a gentleman in the seat behind me-
In the course of his remarks he said he
was from Kentucky and that he was a
distiller, manufacturer of the M
whisky. Pointing to my hite-ribbon
bow, I said, You must recog-
nize a foe in me- He replied that the
white ribbon society had done more
than any other society to harm the
liquor business, and that he had often
stood and looked at the Temple in
Chicago and thought of it as a monu-
ment to the success of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union. What
would he and other distillers and liquor
men say if our women should let this
monument pass into other hands?
Would they not consider ours lost
cause?" Mrs. Crafts very pertinent
questions should awake every white.
ribboner to both thought and action.

AS railway companies, from eco

AS railway companies, from eco
nomic considerations, find it necessary
generally to prohibit the use of intox-
icants by their employees, at least while
on duty, SO does much of the modern,
complicated labor saving machinery
emphasize the lesson of abstinence.
The Gate City, of Iowa, abiding to the
subject, refers to the old days when a
man could use liquor freely, and call
that happened was that the tool stop
ped when his arm stopped" and says:
"But he cannot be fuddled now when
he is using machine driven by steam
or electricity; drunkenness in man
aging that cripples or kills the work
man, and destroys a costly machine
of factory upon which the labor of
men and women depends Our at
tention has recently been called to
the case of a foreman in one of the
largest printing press works in this
country, a mechanic of rare skill and
genius, who has occasionally yielded
to drink, with serious loss to his en-
ployers, and who, though holding his
position still, holds it now on proba-
ton, to lose it with another repetition
of his offense. The most delicate and
complicated machinery Of all, that of
the human body and brain, suffers
most from alcoholic Indulgence.

Mr.. D. L. Moody points out in the
Ladies' Home Journal one source of
domestic infelicity and of divorces.
The fact indicated by Mr.. Moody is by
no means one of recent discovery;
nevertheless, the warning uttered by
him needs to be given. He says:
'sThe most subtle and deceitful hope
which ever existed, and one which
wrecks the happiness of many young
girls life, is the common delusion
that woman can best reform man
by marrying him. 1t is mystery to
me how people can be SO blinded to
the hundreds of cases in every COM
munity where tottering homes have
fallen and innocent lives have been
wrecked, because some young girl has
persisted in marrying scoundrel in
the hope of saving him. 1 have never
known such union-and have seen
hundreds of them-result in anything
but sadness and disaster. Let no
young girl think that she may be able
to accomplish what loving mother
or sympathetic sisters have been un-
able to do. Before there is any con-
tract of marriage there should be
convincing proof that there has been
real and thorough regeneration.

Glass Medicine Spoons.

Glass spoons are sold at the drug
stores for the taking of medicines which
may tarnish silver. Better. however,
than these are the glass tubes which
keep such powerful drugs away from
the teeth as well, and better perhaps
than both is the attention to food and
hygienic living which does away with
the necessity of any such heroic dosing.

An Important Case Decided

Following IS brief resume Of
one Of the most important civil
cases that has occupied the time
Of Judge HOCkcr'o court in sever
al terms, one that drew the
greatest array Of legal talent to-
gcthCr, and excited more interest
than any case tried here Of re-
cent years. Every one has heard
of IT and IS more or less inter
CSted:
In 1896 the SoWden Cypress
Company, ut Chatterton, Citrus
county, Florida, became insol-
vent. Litigation enSued, the
creditors, who were many, by
attachment, the laborers enforc-
ing their liens on large quantity
Of cypress lumber, lath and
shingles. The title passed to the
laborcrs under a chancery decree.
The creditors got their title from
the sheriff at law. S. Quicken
hclmer and son of Savannah held
a mortgage on the lumber and
bought up the labOrerS title, paid
them or in full, took possession
of the property and commenced
shipping the lumber to market
The sheriff Of Citrus county, for
the Judgment creditors, inter
fGred with the work, when Guck-
enhelmcr, by this counsel w. *.
ICWadSki, filed a bill in equity to
restrain the sheriff and the credl-
tors from interfering in the ship
ping. An Injunction was grant
ed, GuCkenheimer giving a bond
for SIG, 900 with the Fidelity and
Deposit Company of Maryland
as surCtieS. The lumber was re-
moved and afterwards the in
junction was dissolved and the
bill dismissed. Then suit was
brought upon the bond against
the Fidelity and Deposit Com
pany. The defendant filed pleas
which were demured to, and the
court sustained the demurrers.
The case has Just been submitted
to the jury, to assess tie dam
ages due the plaintiff. The
question OF damages was con-
tested upon the law fixing the
damages at the value Of the
property at Chatterton at the
time OF its conversion. The
plaintiffs were represented by
Hon. II. w. DAVIS, Col. r. \.
Bmford, Judge w. $. jennings
and Judge Richard McConathy,
and the defendant by Hon w.
X, Xcwadslii and Hon. =. w.
M"ldrim, mayor Of Savannah.
The plaintiffs are the Mcrchant'S
National Bank by &. c.. Stapyl-
ton, receiver; IL. b. Masters, DR..
William Anderson and the Put
nam National Bank Of Palatka.
The case consumed three days
of the courts time on the simple
question of assessing damages.
The jury, after being out a short
time, returned verdict for the
plaintiffs and affixed the dam
ages at $4,000 and attorney
fees at $3.50.

W. II. Brown. fruit Inspector for King

with Just now IS one OF the most difficult
annoyances TO get rid Of that the farmers
and fruit growers have TO contend with.
He says that he has condemned SEQ boxes
OF fruit In the last year. and will continue
TO dump infected fruit, whereve- found.
into the gutter. To j Post-Inleingencer
reporter. yesterday he said:
Ninety per cent. OF all the gooseberries
I have condemned are infected by small

This troublesome insect is one that de-
posts the egg. or nit. that produces tho
larvae. about the time that the bloom falls
from the bush. Shortly after this deposit

which grows and natures with the berry.

The only remedy for this that I know
Of is - pick the entire crop when the
