AT THE SHOW.
What Was Heard During Most Abb
sorbing Scene.

Macauley's Theatre was so crowded
the last night of the Julia Arthur en-
gagement that there was no room for
the Fool Killer who came late. Down
in the parquet was a couple In need of
his services. They had been engaged
probably twenty hours, and within five
minutes everybody in their vicinity
knew it. Two young men who think
Miss Arthur the greatest as well as
the most beautiful Englishspeaking
actress were in front of the loving pair.
Trouble started with the second act,
when Miss Arthur swept on the stage
gowned in her Cleopatra costume, a
vision of perfect loveliness. The au-
dience gasped its admiration and the
only male creature that had been en-
gagged since Eden whispered to the cot
ton-locked damsel beside him: That's
just as you looked last night, Evange-
line"
Then followed the scene when Jose
phine, with all the seductive power of
her voice, her beauty, her love and her
womanliness, coaXes the sulky Napo-
leon from his room. The house was
scarcely breathing. The two young
worshippers were living on Miss Ar
thurs pleading. The voice of the girl,
who had bitten off more love than she
could digest secretly, rasped them to
earth again.

1 begged you after we quarreled to-
night"
Again came comparative peace until
Napoleon began to urge the divorce.

would you do that, Evangeline,"
grunted Henry, turning calfs eyes on
her.
I'D do it if I loved him. I'd drink
poison for you, Henry" she whimper-
ed, sentimentally.
That was past all patience. One of
the men whirled in his seat.
For heavens sake, young woman,
drink it, and drink it quick" he said.
The voice from the stage was heard
alone after tbat.-Louisville Courier

Little Hints.

You must remember that neatness
and care of your clothes are most i'm
portant if you want to look well as
people with far bigger incomes When
you buy pair of gloves, sew the but
tons on firmly before wearing them,
as, once lost, they are generally inn
possible to match. When you invest in
a new pair of stockings, run the toes
and heels with darning cotton, and
they will wear twice as long, and if
washed at home they will last much
longer than if sent to the laundry.
When you take off your hat brush it
well before putting 1t away in a box.
When you take off your gloves pull
them out straight. Do not roll them
into a tight, untidy ball.

Avoid Contact With Sick Pets.

Dogs and monkeys are subject to
tuberculosis and are said to be cap
able of communicating the infection to
human beings. A large number of
the canaries that die in captivity fall
victims to the same disease. Parrots
suffer from a malady peculiar to
themselves. The bacillus that causes
it is thought to originate pneumonia in
man. Cats have been known to be
carriers of diphtheria, and possibly of
scarlet fever and other infectious dis
eases. Great care should be taken
during an epidemic to keep pet ami
mails out of the reach of infection, or
else away from the children, and at
any time bird or animal that seems
ailing should be at once isolated

The Garden Plan.

What should be the plan and shape
of the family garden consisting of an
acre? 1t has been found advantage
GUS to have all vegetables in long
rows which may be weeded and cul-
tivated by implements drawn by n
horse, thus avoiding the use of the
hose and hand weeder to a large ex-
tent. Rows should be about three feet
apart, and, say, one hundred and fifty
yards long. This will form the gar
den into narrow strip, greatly facili-
tating cultivation, which is the max
ing of good crop of vegetables.

WOMEN AND HOME.
Moths in carpets-care of Floor Gov.
ering.

If you fear that they are at work
at the edge of the carpet, it will some
times suffice to lay wet towel, and
press a flatiron over it; but the best
way is to. take the carpet up and
clean it and give careful attention
to the floor. Look at the cracks, and
if you discover signs of moths, wash
the floor with benzine and scatter red
pepper on it before putting the car
pet lining down.
Heavy carpets sometimes do not re-
quire taking up every year, unless in
constant use. Loosen the edges, fold
the carpets back, wash the floor in
boraX dissolved in them. Dash with
insect powder, or lay with tobacco
leaves along the edge, and retack the
carpet. Or use turpentine, the enemy
of buffalo moths, carpet worms and
other insects that injure and destroy
carpets. Mix the turpentine with
pure water in the proportion of three
tablespoonfuls to three quarts of wat
er, and then, after the carpet has
been well swept, go over each breadth
carefully with a sponge dipped in the
solution and wrung nearly dry
Change the water as it becomes dirty
The carpet will be nicely cleaned as
well as disinfected. All moths can be
kept away and the eggs destroyed by
this means. Spots may be removed
and renovated by the use of oxgall or
ammonia and water.
A good way to brighten a carpet is
to put half a tumbler of spirits of tur-
pentine in a basin of water and dip
your broom in 1t and sweep over the
carpet once or twice, and it will re-
store the color and brighten it up I'M
til you would think it new. Another
good way to clean old carpets is to
rub them over with meal: just damp
en- it a very little, and rub the carpet
with it, and when perfectly dry sweep
over the meal. After carpet is thor
oughly swept, rub it with a cloth
dipped in water and ammonia; it will
brighten the colors and make it look
like new.

How to Save Your Frocks.

Nowadays, when all girls have some
pet hobby, such as gardening, photog-
raphy, wood carving, housekeeping,
etc, frocks are apt to get shabby very
quickly, unless proper care is taken
of them. Aprons seem to be out of
fashion just now, but there is nothing
more foolish, as by no other means
can ones skirts remain fresh and
clean. Big ones with bibs and sleeves
should be worn when doing anything
at all dirty, for the tiniest spot of
grease or dirt will entirely spoil the
look of very nice frock.

else in a house or yard for health,

We do not blame these republicans

sending it under protest when they dc
send. The Indiana committee has an

least 100000, of which 100000 has al
