The Odor of Feathers.

Properly cured feathers have no
odor. When there Is close odor to a
feather pillow it tells unerringly one
story. The feathers have not been
properly cured and have been spoiled
in the curing. There is no remedy for
such feathers. The small amount OF
animal matter located in the quill of
the feather, instead Of being destroyed
in the curing, has been allowed to be-
come decayed; and like any decayed
animal matter, 1t leaves lasting taint
behind. The best feathers may by ac-
cident acquire that taint by curing.
The best goose feathers have so small
a quill that they are not as liable to
trouble as hens feathers, that have a
heavy quill. It always pays to buy
the best goose feathers because they
are much lighter. bulk for bulk, than
cheap feathers, and the lightest cost
very little more than the heaviest,
though the price by the pound is con-
siderably more. 1t is generally the
cheap feathers with coarse quilts that
are odorous. The odor will last as long
as the feathers.-New York Tribune.

Nowadays dressing tables of mahog-
any, rosewood, white enamel. etc., are
preferred above all, and rightly, too,
without doubt, but the coquettish
draped dressing table is the favorite
of many women who like frills and
daintiness. The old spot" muslin or
the pattern of tiny dots no bigger than
seed pearls is quaint and pretty. The
neatest way is to stitch the valance on
a piece of tape anil tie 1t at intervals
along the edge, the piece for the table
coming to the edge and being finished
on with q frill or muslin or lace. Then
we may yield ourselves to further Law.

The beneficial hose plays a great
part in summer. 1t is too often used
carelessly. Water is almost as disas.
trous as fire as destroyer. Blow out
the hose and dry it daily.
Screens-house screens-are marvels
of use in summer. A summer cold is a
miserable affliction. A screen before

fore dawn, especially.
Charcoal used to heat water for

Presented Himself to Be Hanged.


Lord Wolseley tells an amusing
story of his experience with Abel
Erasmus, the Boer, who has just come
into the British lines in South Africa.
In 1879 Wolseley was making a cam
paign against Sekukini, the chief Of
the Bapedis near Swaziland. After
he had captured the chief and put
down the rebellion, he asked Sekpkini
how he dared make war against
great power like England. The kafhr
replied that he had been urged on by
Erasmus.
Soon after. at public dinner at Pre-
toria, Lord Wolseley made a speech, In
which he said that II he ever found
that Erasmus had melted the chiefs
to war he would hang him.
A day or two later a tall. bearded
Boer appeared at Wolseley's Office, and
said to the secretary, Sir Henry Brack-
enbury:
81 am Abel Erasmus, and have
very important business to transact. l
have heard that Sir Garnet Wolseley
has declared that he win hang me
whenever he can lay hands on me. so
I have come to be hanged"
The secretary admitted the advisa-
bility of consulting Sir Garnet. who
was in the next room, and it happened
that the general was busy and could
not stop to discuss other matters, even
SO important as hangings. According
" he returned to the Boer, and paci-
fed him by suggesting that the bus
mess could stand over for day or
two. Erasmus felt that he had dis
charged his share of the obligation and
departed in good health and in better
temper.-Youth's Companion.

Tho Country Editor.

1t has been frequently stated that
the editor of country newspaper
works harder for less pay than any
man Of similar ability in his commu-
nifty. There is no, doubt some truth
in this. but It is far, from being fair
statement Of the case.
A similar statement might be made
to apply to the country doctor or law
yer, and with quite as much truth.
There are poor editors, poor lawyers,
poor farmers. poor merchants and SO
on along the line, but as a rule we do
not have to look far to discover 1.-THE
why's and wherefores.
Just mans ability to get a few
hundred dollars together for printing
machinery does not make him an edi-
tor, any more than the purchase of a
few bottles of pills and boxes of pow
ders makes a man doctor. There
must be something more than mere
name. "
No doubt the country editor does
work hard, and in very many in
stances he works In the dark. If he
gets out a poor newspaper he must
expect to be i'll paid. and generally 1t
is the editor of poor newspaper that
does the hardest work.
Fortunately there are very many
editors of country newspapers who
do not come under this head, and In
every instance it will be found that
they are live, hustling men who run
their papers on business principles,
and are not satisfied with putting
"any old thing in type just SO long
as 1t will fill the required space.
Backed up by brains there are hard
er roads to travel than publishing a
country newspaper, but without at
least a normal supply Of gray mat
ter 1t is tortuous and full Of snares
and pitfalls.-Fourth Estate.

A Strange Mouse.
As in the nursery Mrs. Puss
Was looking out for mice,
She threw a glance upon the shelf,
And there saw something nice.
A little mouse among the toys
Was standing very still;
'Pll catch that mouse" said Mrs. Puss,
Most certainly will"
Then crouching down before the shelf,
Her instinct to obey,
She made a sudden upward spring,
And pounced upon her prey.
But what was this? In sudden fear
Her claws let 60 their hold

A substance hard and cold.
Then frightened Mrs. Puss turned tail,
And fed from out the house,
While still her prey remained unmoved-
He was a clockwork mouse!

too. When aunty brought in Jenny
Mayo's doll, I Just sQuealed.
Its a doll party" she said. 1--WE
couldn't have the little girls. because
they would laugh and talk and tire you
too much. But they said they would
send their dolls, and so you could have
quiet party"
Mamma and aunty kept bringing in
more dolls. At last they brought In
Freddy Bonds new horse, fine, big,
half-covered one. Freddy hadn't a
doll, of course, so he asked II he might
send his horse to spend the afternoon
with me. Didn't laugh?
Horses don't usually 60 to parties,
except to take people there, but this
horse was as quiet and nice as the
dolls.
Mamma and aunty said the best
thing a doll-party was that you didn't
have to give them real things to eat,
and so 1t couldn't hurt me. But we
had a supper just the same. We had
the cutting table spread with a big
towel and my new dishes.
And aunty made the things to eat
right there. 1t was great fun watch
ing her, for she made me guess them.
They were mostly tissue-paper things.

The multimasted schooner is devel-
oping into an important factor in the
ocean carrying trade. Originally a two
masted craft, with fore and aft sails,
1t has evolved by regular steps of pro-
gression into seven-masted vessel
whose sails can be all handled from
the deck. Two purposes are thus Sc
cured. First, the element of safety In
the navigation of the vessel is In.
creased, as the sail area may be re-
duced without difficulty or danger
whenever desired and under any
weather conditions, and without ar.
resting her headway. Secondly, the rig
Is the most economical of all to oper-
ate. The sail area is divided mp 80
that a comparatively small crew can
handle the canvas, and reef and un-
reef, furl and unfurl, without leaving
the deck. The latter feature makes
the multimasted schooner the most
profitable Of all classes Of ocean car
riers.

A curious outcome of technical edu-
cation for women was shown during
the past year in the case Of a man
who by failure In business was re-
duced to poverty. He had a capable
family, and his daughters at once
sought for situations as dressmakers
and milliners. In the latter trade
there was no prospect Of Immediate
remuneration, as 1t is customary for
the beginners to give three months OF
service, both spring and fall, without
receiving wages. The second daugh-
ter got a place to sew in a dressmak-
ing establishment at small wages. and
the fathers efforts to make a living
were hampered by his advanced years.
Then the mother took hand. She
had been raised on a farm and sought
and found employment tying up vege-
tables for market. In this Industry
the chief requisites are careful count
ing and honesty, early rising and In
dustry. She actually made enough
money to keep the family for three
months, but then she did not have TO
spend money to dress up to the situa-
tIon. and was paid for her work at the
~nd of each day.-Philadelphia Record.
