A few weeks ago woman died in
New York, and at the hour Of her
funeral nearly all the courts in that
great city suspended and many Of the
judges and officers attended. II was
a singular tribute, not paralleled, per-
haps, in history. This woman's name
was Rebecca Salome Foster, and OF
her one of the judges said: "Her name
was strange in the social life of New
York. She founded no societies; she
left no monuments in art or literature,
yet her death will be mourned by
thousands of those she had comfort
ed in New York and all over the land,
by men in all walks of life, and espe-
cially those of the criminal bar, who
had daily been in contact with this
gentle, unobtrusive woman" She was
the Angel of the Tombs," and he'd
devoted herself to the prisoners. It
was a tribute to simple and self-for-
getful goodness which distinguished
judges and officers and condemned
criminals Joined in paying.

IRONING A SHIRT WAIST.

Not infreQuently q young woman

tons for ironing the waist: To iron
summer shirt waists so that they will
look like new 1t Is needful to have
them starched evenly with Defiance
starch. then made perfectly smooth
and rolled tight In damp cloth. to be
laid away two or three hours. When
ironing have q bowl of water and Q
clean piece of muslin beside the IRON
ing board. Have your iron hot. but
not sufficiently SO to scorch. and abso-
lutely clean. Begin by ironing tho
back. then the front, sides and the
sleeves, followed by the neckband and
the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap-
ply the damp cloth and remove them.
Always iron from the top Of the waist
to the bottom. II there are plaits In
the front iron them downward, after
first raising each enc with a blunt
knife, and with the edge Of the iron
follow every line Of stitching to give 1t
distinctness. After the shirt waist IL
ironed 1t should be we'll aired by the
fire or in the sun before 1t Is folded
and put away, says the Philadelphia

When Lewanika, the paramount

Sheffield recently he was most inter-
ested in knives. When he was shown
a knife Of the value Of e920, the max
ing of which occupied nearly two
years, the King and his Prime Mini
ster cast longing eyes at the remark
able specimen Of cutlery, and entered
into the most animated conversation.
The knife in question is probably the
most artistic piece of cutlery in the
world. 1t is known as the Norfolk
Sportsman's Knife" There are seven

Lamp OIL for Spiders.

Spiders are met with In the forests
of Java whose webs are SO strong
that it requires knife to cut through
them, we are told. A spider weighing
four pounds, which has taken up her
residence in a cathedral at Munich,
regales herself with a large supply
Of lamp. oil. A Texas spider weaves
a balloon four feet long and two feet
wide, which she fastens to a tree by
single thread, then marches on
board with her half dozen little ones,
cuts the thread. and away goes the
air ship to some distant point on the
prairie.
