With regard to the late John Dolan, whose unexpected demise has recently been announced through the columns of the Democrat, and whose burial took place from the Sacred Heart church at S:3O this morning, q few words in memorium of the deceased we hope will not be considered nal aproPOS.
 John Dolan's memory shall never be obliterated from the memory of the residents of East Main and Dublin streets as one of the pioneers who were always ready to sacrifice their time and money for the successful achieve ment of any proposition which would bring the eastern section of the city into prominence, as an integral DOT ton of the municipality. Generous to ; fault, and with knowledge acquired by extensive travel, he endeared him. self to all, even those of a transient acquaintance. It is an old and true proverb that "Death strikes at shin ing mark" and in the death of our beloved deceased friend this proverb seems to be verified. Though in the prime of manhood the deceased was always appealed to with confidence, and this confidence was begot by the ardent honesty nnd charitable disposi- flon which characterized our old friend ssJack" Many a silent tear has dropped from the eye and many fer vent prayer has ascended to the throne of God since that great Omnipitent ; He3ne called the soul of our dear friend tekofe the inevitable bar of heavenly 5u9t1ce.

"H0usew0rk Is rather hard on the
hands. but there are some precautions
which. II taken. will add greatly TO the
comfort Of the worker and the appear
ance Of the hands" writes Maria Par.
loa. IN the Ladies' Home Journal.
Among the things which roughen and
blaclen the hands the most important
are dust. soap, fruit vegetables and
neglect TO properly dry the hands.
Wash an vegetables before pairing.
When the hands are stained by fruit
on vegetables be sure TO remove the
stains before the hands come in con-
tact with soap or soapy water. Re-
move the stains with an acid. such as
lemon. vinegar or sour milk, then wash
ia clear water When using soap and
water for any purpose be sure TO rinse
of all the soap before wiplng the
hands. Always wipe the hands per-
fectly dry. DO not change soaps il you
can avoid 1t. and always use n good
soap. When sweeping and dusting
wear l0ose-fItting gloves. Have pair
Of rubber gloves for use when 1t is
necessary to have the hands in water
a great deal. Grease spoils rubber,
therefore the gloves must be washed
perfectly clean and smooth after dish
washing or any other work that rough
ems them. With a little practice one
can wash dishes as well and as quick
~ with a dish-mop as with cloth and
the hands There should be two mops,
one for the tableware and one Tor the
cooking dishes. For washing floors
have a self-wringing mop. To soften
and whilcn the hands use some sort Of
cream on them at night, then powder
them with cornstarch and put them in
loose gloves kept for this purpose"
