The Romance Of . Cemetery.


Out at Calvary is monument maker
who has grown wise, and this is the
way it happened:
He is an economical man and attends
to business. He used to receive all call
ers and show them about the place. If
two prospective patrons came together,
he saved time by showing them around
together. pointing out the sorrow en-
during qualities of certain stones, the
tear compelling possibilities of certain
designs and the grief assuaging merits
of the price. One day a man came and
looked over the place for monument
sufficiently eloquent as a marker for
wife deceased. He came very near buy
ing beautiful shaft on an expensive
base, with world of chiseling about
it. He said he would come out next day
and decide.
Next day he came; also came wild
ow who had about given definite or
der for a towering monument for the
most mourned of husbands. The mon
ument man saved time and conducted
the two around together They looked
at the things already all but ordered.
Then they waited and desired to look
farther. Then they dawdled and talked
a good deal TO each other. Then they
went away ON the same train. In day
or two they came back together, picked
out one monument for the two deceased
worthless rather modest double head
er, by the way-and told the stone man
they had concluded to get married and
to use the money they saved in furnish
ing fat.
Now the stone man has helper, and
bereaved men are never allowed to in
spect the place in company with bereav-
ed women. Chicago Post

How the French wash Flannels.

The peasants in France wear wool,
and they know how to care for it. These
competent working women soften the
water with bran. Common bran with
soap shavings are made up into bag
and boiled in the water Boiling water
softens flannel, but there is also
cleansing and softening power in the
bran. Flannels washed in this water at
a comfortable temperature to handle will
be clean and soft and perfect if properly
dried and pressed A writer in 5he New
York Times says in this connection:
Flannels should never be sprinkled.
In this climate they seldom are too dry
to press, but sometimes when the air
is singularly dry and hot it may be
found necessary to moisten them before
pressing, and this can be done by wiring
ing heavy towels out Of the hottest wa
ter possible to bear the hands III and
wrapping the hannels in the hot cloths,
then rolling them smooth and close and
laying in warm place ready for press
ing. If the garment should become too
damp, the process Of pressing and
stretching aud turning should be equal
ly prolonged. Experience will determine

Aluminium and water.

The fact is demonstrated that alu-
minimum is as excellent a purifier of wa
ter as there is The salts of this metal
are insoluble in water, and consequently
it is plain that when these salts are
H rmed the water can be strained and
We impurities removed therefrom. Per-
haps the most practicable method of puri-
flying water by this means is the trough
method, as it is called, the trough be-
ing composed of plates of aluminium
and zinc or iron, six or eight inches
apart. One end of the tank affords an
entrance for the volume of water which
passes over the top Of one plate and
thence under the plate next to it. this
being accomplished by the fact that the
elevation of the several plates is differ
ent. In connection with this tank or
trough there is AN electrical generator
of moderate size, and, though alumni
um will not form the negative pole of
a current, the other plates used will.
Now, as it is always the case that when
an electric current comes in contact
with water in this manner it decom-
poses certain portion of the fluid, as
it were, the result of such decomposi-
tion is that ozone is formed and oxygen
freed-the meaning Of this being the alb
solute extinction of life in any microbes
or organic matter which the water might
contain, leaving it-after meeting the
publication the salts of aluminium oc-
casion-as clear and healthful as the
water which flows from the purest
spring. New York Sun.

The Funny Man.

There is a certain Cleveland lawyer
who delights in teasing his wife. He
knows how trustful and mpressionable
she is, and he carries home some of the
most preposterous stories just to excite
and alarm her.
'By Jove, he said a few evenings
ago, II had close call today. y
"What was it, George?" cried the
alarmed wife.

inches of moving motor. /"

"Nope. Didn't think of it.

"How carelessl And didn't the life
saving fender strike you?''
"No. the fender couldn't. 1t was on
the other end Of the car.
''The other end?''
"Yes. The car was going the other
way"

And the funny lawyer laughed until
he cried. But some day fate will over
take him. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

THE SOUVENIR CRAZE.
Suggestions For Decorating Odd Pieces o
China

Suggestions For Decorating Odd Pieces Of
China
The souvenir spoon now has a cup to
stir about in. The craze for souvenir
china has devastated the east, especially
the older towns which can point to
spots that have figured in history and
are eligible, therefore, to figure on choco-
late pots or ice cream dishes. Much of
it is pretty and artistic. The prevailing
style is fine white ware with gold dec
grafton or with delicate color work in
flower sprays or garlands. The souvenir
pictures are reproduced in black and
white on the different pieces by pho
tographic process.
Souvenir china varies greatly in beau
ty and value, according to the skill dis
played in taking the original photo
graphs. The favorite subjects are houses
where notable people were born or
where interesting things have hap
pened. Now, as all houses are not built
with view to composing well in pho
tographs and as some photographers TO-
Gus by preference on the barest surfaces
and most unloyely sky lines it often
happens that one leaves soup in the bot
tom of one S plate for fear of uncovering
thing distressing Landscapes are not
much used on souvenir china. A gorge,
a glen, waterfall or lovers leap is
local asset, but of less consequence than
colonial or Revolutionary building.
Scenery does not show up on cracker
jar or salad bowl as does a house, and
on an average it offers less to talk about.
For the wise housewife has always in
mind while choosing her souvenirs of
summer resorts or places visited the as
sistance each piece can render in break
ing the ice of conversation. The object
of her collecting is, for example, the
completion of an afternoon tea serv-
ice made up of odd pieces, each from a
different place and each carrying pic
ture that tells story. Ice cream sets,
after dinner coffee sets and berry sets
are favorites. Any sort of dish is sought
that can play its part in pleasant, in
formal entertaining.
Ideal pieces in this respect are the
teapots and the cups and saucers that
come from the old town of Danvers,
Mass, and that show the house of the
gambrel roof whose legend Lucy Lar
com wove into poem. In the days of
the Boston tea party certain patriot
forbade his wife to drink tea in his
house. She called her gossips together.
and they drank tea on the roof with
double enjoyment. Such tale starts off
an afternoon tea very comfortably.
Few women pass through Salem,
Mass, without bringing away cake

the Roger Williams house, or the house
where Hawthorne was born, or the one

face or his house for ornament. Plym-

THE BEEHIVE.

The air should always circulate between
the ground and the hive.
Hives should not be set fiat on the
ground, but be raised about two inches.
If the bees seem to be doing welH the
safest plan is to let them alone in the win
ter
Almost all extracted honey will granu-
late and become like sugar during cold
weather.
Roofs of hives of every kind should have
a good coat of paint every fall. Leaky roofs
are very damaging.
Filling frames of comb with sirup and
placing the same in the hives is one of the
best ways Of feeding.
Properly to rear the best early queens,
it is necessary to feed the colony judi
ciously up to swarming.
The proper time for transferring bees is
early In the spring, when the bees are
gathering their first honey.
If bees are disturbed in any way during
the winter, 1t will arouse them to activity,
and they will gorge themselves with honey.

to within eight inches of the top, which
should be turned in to form a hem two
inches wide. The outside and lining,
which is of waterproof cloth, are made
separately, then placed together with
seams inside. Make wide casing at
top where hem terminates, and through
this run white linen tapes. Thin rub
ber may be substituted for waterproof
cloth as lining if preferred.

THINKING ALOUD.
A Ruse Which Reused Lord Dudley and
Formed a Friendship.

A Ruse Which Reused Lord Dudley and
Formed Friendship.
One of the earls of Dudley, who was
addicted to the practice of thinking
aloud, found himself in very awkward
predicament on certain occasion, if a
story told of him may be credited. He
was to spend the evening at the house
of a friend and ordered his carriage
early, as he had a long drive back to his
own home.
When the hour arrived, the carriage
was not forthcoming. Seeing that Lord
Dudley was considerably annoyed by
the delay, one of the guests, whose way
homeward lay past his lordship's house,
politely offered him seat in his car
riage The gentleman was almost
stranger to Lord Dudley, but the offer
was accepted.
The drive did not prove very So
ciable one Lord Dudley took his scat
and Immediately relapsed into silence,
his thoughts apparently engrossed by
some unpleasant subject. Presently he
began to speak in low, but distinctly
audible tone of voice, and his compan-
ion, to his astonishment, heard him say:
Tim very sorry accepted his offer.
I don't know the man. 1t was civil GER
tainly, but the worst is suppose I
must ask him to dinner. !"
Silence followed this bit of audible
thinking. His lordship was unaware
that he had betrayed his thoughts and
was probably still meditating upon the
same unpleasant subject when the voice
of his companion broke the stiffness.
Apparently this stranger was afflicted
with the same malady from which his
lordship suffered, for he exactly imitat-
ed Lord Dudley's tone as be said:
Perhaps he'll think did it to mako
his acquaintance. Why, l would have
done the same to any farmer ON his
estate l hope he won ask me to din
ner, for / shan t accept his invitation.
Lord Dudley's abstraction was all
gone. He listened to the others words,
Immediately comprehending the joke
against himself, and frankly offered his
hand to his companion, making many
apologies for his involuntary rudeness.
The stranger proved magnanimous,
and from that night the two became
fast friends Youths Companion.
