The residence OF Geo. A. Rhodes,
on the Tatum farm beyond Silver
brook, was entered by burglars on
Wednesday night, and numerous
articles stolen. The burglars gain.
ed an entrance by boring holes
back of two bolts and shooting
them. There were IS jimmy marks
on the door, showing that it took
some time for them to egect an en-.
trance. The thieves carried off
two slver-plated coffee POTS, silver
drinking cup and $3.50 in money.
They broke open the writing desk
of Mr.. Rhodes and secured what
money it contained, and carried off
several umbrellas and an overcoat
to the back door, which they drop
ped IN their rather hurried depar-
ture. They overlooked several
other valuable articles in silver
ware. This makes the third time
Mr.. Rhodes has been burglarized
within the last year and halt.

PREVEIITION oF .
The Use OF BisuIphfde OF Carbon II
Earnestly Advocated by a wash
tngtOn Medical Man.

Every season somebody gets out a
new form of encouragement to the n
terprising and ~voracious clothes moth.
Sometimes it is a scientific or pseudo
scientific preventive; sometimes it is a
patent remedy upon which the insect
fairly thrives and multiplies. The lat
est method is the invention of DR.. A.
X. Fisher, of Washington, who doesn't
wish to patent or sell it, but altruistic-
ally disseminates through the de-
partment of agriculture the result of
his attempts to preserve clothing from
the insect promoter of the tailoring in
dustry. The department. doesn't Off
cially vouch for the effectiveness Of the
method, but considers it worthy of a
place in one of its recent pamphlets,
The preventive has the merit of sim
plicity and cheapness. 1t presupposes
the possession of a wooden chest in
which to pack the clothing. In the
cover of the chest DR.. Fisher bores a
large anger hole and fastens a sponge
below it. Through the hole he pours a
few drops of ~bisulphide of carbon, and
the sponge absorbs it. Then he cOrks
up the hole tightly. The fumes of the
carbon are disseminated through the
chest, and when the designing moth ar
rives with a view of depositing eggs
there-eggs which would eventually
hatch into small but active worms,
with ambitions to eat unsymmetrical
holes in the most prominent portions
of the expensive clothes around the
place-the odor assails it's nostrils and
it fits on to a more healthful locality.
The inventor of this scheme says that
since he has employed it not a single
moth has invaded his clothing.-N. Y,

Oner of the poor little For a
time the little captive bore his i'm
prisonment very sullenly; but good
food and kind treatment soon
changed his wild, shy nature into a
spirit of love and confidence. When.
he had attained full size his appear
ance was between that of a fox and
a bear, on a smaller scale, of course.
For the benefit of our girls and
boys interested in nature, our friend,
Mr.. E. A. Sterling, sends a photograph
of this pretty and intelligent little
animal climbing uP'the big limb of a
tree.
In the wild state the raccoon always
conducts himself like a perfect little
gentleman. His favorite feeding
grounds r along the shady banks
of streams, or in some swampy bit of
woods, where a be found those large
delicious frogs he loves so well. He
has, however, NO scruples against GO
ing out into the fields and orchards
in search of nuts, fruits and green
corn; and, moreover, when Dame For
tune puts nice fat poultry in his way
Mr.. RaccOon is too much of a gentle
nan to refuse them, which often gets
him into trouble with the farmer. He
also eats mice, rats, insects, eggs-in
fact is almost ~omnivorous. He is ac-
tive day and night.
A curious and interesting habit Of
raccoons is that of washing all their
food in water. 1t matters not wheth-
er they have an ear of corn, a nice
clean berry or a big fat bug, they
will always seek a little pool of wa.
ter and carefully dip the object in ii
several times before conveying it to
their mouth.-St. Nicholas.

COLORING EASTER EGGS.
To Give Them Tints That VIII BE
Smooth and Even Is Not a Very
Hard Task.

"~Easter-egg time is not so very far
away now, and the question of coloring
them will soon come up again.
A variety of fancy eggs can be made
from one package of dyes. Purchase a
package containing four colors, red,
blue, yellow and violet being pleasing
colors. Theday before the coloring is to
be done dissolve each color separately
and put into bottles. The next day Sc
lect perfectly fresh eggs and wash
them clean. If obtainable, use some
very small eggs. Put flew of the eggs
into a Kettle of cold water andlet them
boil ten or fifteen minutes; long boil
ing renders eggs more digestible. Only
a few should be cooked at a time, as
they must be dipped into the dye while
hot, so as to dry the coloring immedi-
ately, or they will not be nice.
Pour the dyes into an old bowl OF
some deep dish. To produce a variety
of colors from the four kinds of dye
proceed as follows: Dip one-half of an
egg into one, color and the other hall
into another. Paste a half-inch STRIP
of paper around a w~hite-shelled egg;
dip one end of the egg as far as the
paper extends in the red dye, and then
the other end in the blue dye. When
the paper is removed you will have q
pretty red, white and blue egg. You
can produce from two to three differ,
emit shades from one color. For in,
stance dip an egg into the yellow dye
to produce yellow, then add a little wa
terto the dye to produce a light orange
add a little more water to produce lem,
on, and proceed in the same way with
the other colors. Roll the eggs over il
the dye two or three times until they
are evenly colored. - Cincinnati En-
uuirer. \

wRIsTLETs.
The War Department to Experiment
with a New Device for Carry
ing Cartridges.

The army ordnance officers are
greatly interested in a new device for
carrying cartridges. The board of
ordnance and Notifications has recon-
mended that the chief of ordnance be
authorized to accept 5000 ammuni-
ton wristlets, invented by Thomas C.
Orndorff, of Worcester, Mass. The
department agrees to use this number
at once in packing 100000 cartridges
for immediate, shipment to such
points as will bring them into actual
use. Mr.. Orndorff's offer is made
without expense to the government
for the purpose of experimental trial,
The ammunition wristlet is a fabric
to encircIe the forearm and hold 20
cartridges. 1t weighs of itself less
than One-half an ounce. If the ammu-
milton is issued in the wristlets, two
could be placed on the arm without
inconvenience, and, if it were neces-
sary to take more, they will fold and
make a small package that could be
slowed in the pocket without irrita,
ton. If the soldier is ordered to ad,
vance or retreat, his. ammunition goes
along the same as though it were in
his belt, and, if there is a lull in the
engagement, the cartridges can be
transferred to the belt and the wrist,
let thrown away. 1t costs but a few
cents-not as much as some clips that
hold but five cartridges.
The value of the wristlet, however
is not ended when it is empty. While
every precaution is taken to furnish
the soldier with material for cleaning
his rife, he is often without it in the
field. By tearing the band apart il
can be used for this purpose. 1t is
strong enough to use as a temporary
bandage in case Of a slight wound, Of
even as a tourniquet in case of a Sc
rious wound.-BaltimOre Sun.

She decorated, among others, the
luxurious library in the house of Mrs.
Frederick Winston, in North State
street, Chicago; the reception hall and
drawing-room of Mrs. Horatio May, in
Aston street, and frescoed after her
own designs the drawing-room of Mrs.
William Bradburn, of Prairie avenue, at
Chicago.
Miss Twyman's methods differ from
those of fresco painters in general. To
her fresco painting is not a trade to be
learned by apprenticeship SO much as
an art full of the soul and appreciation
of beauty. Her preference is for still
life; her style is bold, strong and mas
culine, and has all the elements of real
genius. Miss Twyman is a thorough
Iy progressive and modern young WON
an. One of the expressions of her adj
vanced ideas is found in her costume.
In her work she wears a pair of blue
denim bloomers, which have acquired
such wonderful dashes of coloring that
they rival Joseph's coat in variety, but
she says they are the pride of her
heart.

Mrs. Morey of Coney Island, New
York, peddles milk, but she doesn't
keep a horse and wagon. Instead of
that she drives her COW around to the
houses of her customers, and while
they wait Mrs. Morey says, 80, Bessl"
to the sleek-looking cow, and proceeds
to milk the desired quantity. In this
way each customer is assured that the
milk received is fresh and free from
adulteration. This custom of leading
the COW from d0og 20 door was a com
mon practice in this country many,
many years ago, and in parts of Europe
the milch cows or goats T still made
to serve in the place Of the modern
milk wagon.

CIGARETTE IN BRITISH ARMY.
1SS2-Was Caused by Cir
C-umatances.

A paragraph on the army and olga
rette smoking has brought us the fol-
lowing from a military correspondent;
1T was the Egyptian war of 1882 which
really started cigarette smoking to
any large extent. Officers were thrown
in the country where Egyptian ciga-
rettes were made. A few Greek firms
had possibly previously had a fairly
large trade with retailers who supplied
the universities. Indeed, up till the
seventies the word cigarette was pro-
nounced as a French word, while the
word flag has only existed for half
a dozen years, at the most, in the sense
of cigarette. 'Fag' has nothing to do
with tobacco done up as faggot;' it is
the remains of street boys slang for
the flag end of a cigar. A soldier I'M
der stoppages used only to be allowed
a penny a day; now he is supposed to
want half a pint and a packet of Tags
so he is allowed twopence a day.

Notwithstanding appreciably before

couple of months soldering. Local
ity has a great deal to do with what
people smoke. Sir Thomas Upington
used to say that a club at Cape Town
had only two rules: no clay pipes
and no Boer tobacco allowed. Trans

A woman of 20, who does not look 40,
has in a few weeks won herself an enor-
nous, following among the women of
New York and of some of the adjoining
towns. She carries the secret of per-
petual youth with her, and as it hes
largely in a question of hygienic living,
she has not yet antagonized the doc
tors, says Harper's Bazaar. She recon-
mends, among other things, the drink
ing of a goodly supply of water daily,
and the eating of a grated carrot be-
fore breakfast. The effect of the car
rots may not be visible at once, but in
a few weeks one will notice a certain
captivating gloss on the hair and a
clearness in the eyes and complexion
altogether new She is absolutely with
out embarrassment in her criticism OF
her pupils, no matter how large the au-
dience.

Art Of svveeDinr Carpets.

Many a carpet is prematurely worn
out by injudicious sweeping. Stiff car
pet brooms and the stout arms of i'm
experienced maids are their destruc-
ton. In sweeping thick-piled carpets,
such as Administer and Turkey carpets,
the maid should be instructed to brush
always the way of the pile; by so doing
they may be kept clean for years, but
if the broom Is used in a different way,
all the dust will enter the carpet and
soon spoil it. Without the greatest
care and some little knowledge, furni,
ture and paint, by being knocked about
by the broom, may soon receive an il,
r~eparable amount of damage-rroJ
