How to Reach Two Famous Resorts
An Outing Hint from Outing"

Fast, safe, superbly equipped and most
carefully governed, one need not wonder
at the great popularity of the New York
Central. No other line affords such facili.
ties for through travel between the East and
the West as this wonderful four-track sys.
tenn. In the possession of the Grand Central
Station, located in the heart of New York
City, and within trifing distances of all
first-class hotels, this railway offers greater
advantages than competing lines. Spring,
summer, autumn and winter, it has attrac-
tions irresistible. The great Northern Will
derness, the playground of the State, now
beckons its thousands. AS autumn fails,
Americas scenic masterpiece, far-famed
Niagara. will claim its annual host of pill
grims with its majestic power, the fierce
turmoil of the Whirlpool and all the pic:
turesque surroundings, the awesome Cave of
the Winds and several other minor attrac-
lions of the vicinity. And when winter
comes, then the entire scene transformed to
what seems a fairyland of marvellous frost
dressings, of icy forts and snowy palaces;
of cleaning crystal prison barriers vainly
striving to bind the roaring, foaming plunge
of water-will present a spectacle of weird
mysterious beauty which is not duplicated
in the world.-Outing.

TREASURES IN THE EAST.

Sir Jung Bahadur, the prime minister
to the king of Nepal, has hat made of
diamonds, worth over 100000, and
perched on top is single ruby of in
calculable value.
When Queen Victoria was proclaimed
empress of India some of the native
kings at the celebrations wore costumes
that beggar description. A small item
in the attire of one III jah was a pair of
gloves made of flexible golden scales
incrusted with diamonds, having in the
center of each back an emerald as big
as a hazel nut, and ending in bangles
studded with rubies, the gloves being
worth not less than 100000.
India is the treasure home of the
world. For ages Ceylon and Durmah
supplied the world with the rarest
gems. and the eastern potentates kept
the finest for their own use. Of all the
jewels, the most noted belong to the
guicowar of Baroda. They are valued
at ST., 900, 900. His chief diamond neck
lace contains a stone called the star of
the south, a Brazilian stone of 254
carats, for which s4o0, 600 was paid. the
whole necklace being valued at ST..
o00. 900.

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.

Little onions are now boiled and
served on toast, after the manner of
asparagus. This affords a change from
the stereotyped way of serving. and will
usually be found most acceptable.
Turpentine and inseed oil in equal
parts make good mixture for furni.
ture. For sun streaks a solution, one
third sweet oil and two-thirds alcohol.
is an excellent mixture. A soft cloth
slightly dampened with kerosene will
restore the polish.
To detach book plate. cut piece of
flannel the exact size of the label; dip
in cold water. wiring it out. and apply
1t to the label; cover it with a clean
piece of blotting paper. then pass hot
iron over it several times, and the label
may be easily removed.
Linen will last much longer If soaked,
and then steamed or boiled without
rubbing. Let it boil about FIVE minutes.
Rinse very thoroughly. Did you ever
notice iron-rust spots in your linen for
which you could not account? Those
were caused by the laundress who was
careless about rinsing and left the soap
in.
OF course every good housekeeper
sees that the stains are removed from
the linen before it goes into the wash.
If it is not convenient for you to use
lemon juice and salt to take out iron
rust spots. it may be easier to buy
lemon salts to keep on hand for such an
emergency. The salts are somewhat
stronger than the lemon. Grass stains
will always yield to cream of tartar if
the spot is wet, and well rubbed.
A dainty way to prepare radishes for
the table is to cut morsel off the tip
of each. leaving at the other end the
heart leaves and bit of the stem. Cut
the skin down from the tip in i've or six
places, bending each piece slightly out
ward to simulate the petals. If this is
carefully done, the radish takes on the
appearance of half-opened flower. OF
course, the radishes with the red skins
give the prettiest color effect, though
the new yellow ones are not without
beauty.

an article, be it machinery, proprietary

there have been endorsements Of the
Swanson Rheumatic Cure Company, OF
