OUT OF TUNE AND HARSH.
Stoves unevenness Affects Pianos Sweet

The girl had new piano. She was
musical girl, and it was as nice a
piano as could be found. When she
had it properly set up and ready for
use there was probably not happier
girl. But as she sat down to play
look of discomfort and wonder spread
over her face. 1t was strange, but
this new piano was certainly out Of
tune; certain notes sounded like the
hammering Of piece of iron. That
would never do; she couldn't play on
q piano like that; she couldn't under
stand it, either, for certainly that
piano had a very sweet tone in the
shop. So the piano man was sent for
in great haste, and came to see what
the trouble was, very much aston
ished himself. He ran his fingers over
the piano, and then, turning, gazed
curiously around the room. That is
a most curious and impertinent man, :"
thought the girl, as she watched him,
his fingers moving over the keys, but
his eyes wandering searchingly from
one piece of furniture to another. FL
nally he left the piano, went to stove
in the room, tucked piece of paper
under one leg, and went back to the
piano, when, strange to say, every note
was as sweet and clear and full as
could have been desired, and there
was not a suspicion of discord. Dur
ing the cold weather a stove had been
placed in the room, and, not Standing
evenly, with certain vibrations of the
piano 1t was made to move, and there
followed little clattering of iron,
which, coming simultaneously with
the striking of the keys on the piano,
sounded as il that instrument had pro-
duced the disagreeable sound. THAT
is all right now" said the man, as he
left the piano, "only it was stove
man you needed instead of piano
man"

VIRTUE IN IVY LEAVES.
Used for Making Old Gowns New
Again.

Again.
A woman in England has recently
discovered the peculiar virtues of the
ivy leaf as means of bringing up
pristine freshness to a soiled, faded or
spotted gown. This is her recipe:
Pick about twenty ivy leaves, young,
green ones by choice, wash them care
fully and place them in a jug or basin.
Add about one pint of boiling water,
cover up the basin or jug, and leave
all to soak for two or three hours,
when the cleanser will be ready for
use. Meanwhile the garment must be
thoroughly brushed inside and out, and
all untidy braid or lining removed
from the bottom. When ready, spread
1t on the table and carefully sponge it
with the ivy water. 1t must then be
wrung out dry when it will be found
to have recovered its former color and
to look quite like new. Black silk may
be cleaned in the same manner, but it
needs more care. If the silk is in the
breadths it must be lightly sponged
and then tightly rolled over a cloth
wound round a roller and left to dry.
Black lace may also be renovated when
soiled or brown with age by sponging
it with ivy water, and then rolling it
over a cloth wound round a collar. 1t
should not be ironed.

ZuNi INDIAN TRAILERS.
Their Ability to Track a Man or Beast Is
Simply Marvellous.


'"rhe ability of the Zuni Indians to
trail man or beast is simply marvel
ous. An Indian knows the track of
his prey, and will notice it when
white man cannot see trace of it.
He can pick it out from among a score
of others, or follow it along a travelled
road With the greatest ease. An
Eastern traveller, while stopping at
the village, went out for a bear hunt
with the Indian trader and an Indian
guide. After some hours they sighted
bear, but did not get shot at it, as
it fec. An Indian was put on the
bears trail and followed it at slow
trot until evening. There was no
snow on the ground and no mud. As
far as the whites could see there was
absolutely nothing to indicate which
direction the bear had taken. The
traveller was incredulous and said he
did not believe the Indian knew what
he was doing, but some hours later he
was wholly convinced when they came
up with Bruin.

Smoking was condemned IN the
early part of the seventeenth century
by the Russian Government and made
a crime. In some cases the noses of
smokers were cut off. In Turkey,
under Amwath w., about 1880, the
punishment for smoking was death.
Beginners were sometimes let off with
the indignity of having their pipes
thrust through their noses.

In the fourth edition of YarrelIs

that in the village of Shepstor, moor
land village of Devon, England, the
