How to Pack a Trunk.

In packing a trunk place all books,
boots and other heavy articles at the
bottom, fill up all the orners and
crannies with stockings, vests and such
u~ncrushable articles. Remember that
the good packer packs tightly, for
thus breakages and creasing are
avoided.
The secret of good packing is firm.
ness and smoothness, and to attain
that everything should be put in the
trunk in layers. Before putting in
the dresses have a firm layer of under
garments, and then proceed with the
thickest and heaviest of your skirts.
The skirts should be folded as near
~ as possible in the folds they take
in wear. See that you lay the skirts
alternately in different directions, so
thai if the waistband on one is to
the left side Of the trunk the. waist
band Of the next is at the right side,
for thus the level will be preserved.
Between dark and light dresses
place a towel to prevent the former
soiling the latter. Fold bodices as
far as can be in the lines which they
take upon the figure, put stiff. lightly
crushed paper into the sleeves, and
also into bows and puffings to prevent
their being creased, and then pack
Gs tightly as convenient. When taken
out Of the trunk they will be found
ulinjured.-Home Notes.

To Soften Hard Water.

Hard water is Injurious to the COM
plexion and therefore it should never
be used for washing the face Until
it has been made soft by the addition
on an oatmeal or bran bag. This bag
should be made of a couple of thick
nesses of cheese cloth and large enough
to use in the place of a wash cloth.
Orange and lemon peel are also water
s%ofteners. Instead Of throwing away
the peel of the above fruits put them
into the toilet pitcher and it will per-
fume the water as well a soften it.
An occasional face bath of rose water
or elder flower water is excellent, and
is especially useful for greasy skins
or those which show a slight growth
Of down and for which creams are
not Observation-Disclosures Queen.

CAPITAL Punishment In Japan.

To those who do not fully appreciate
the revolution in Japanese manners
and customs. it may we'll seem strange
chat the sentence OF the murderer of
Hoshi Toru, the ex-minister, should
be Imprisonment for life with hard la
Dor. They might have expected
something with boiling oil in it." Sir
6utherford Alcock. the first British
minister to Japan, writing some forty
years ago, dwelt upon the severity Of
the japanese laws. "The code is prob
ably the bioodiest in the world. for
death is the penalty Of most ofenses.
The Japanese seems to proceed on the
principle that he who violates one law
will violate any other, and that q will
eul violator is unworthy Of life" Un.
der this regime it was considered a
special privilege to be allowed to exc
cute oneself and commit hari-k2zi, but
this was reserved for people of rank.
The common people had to be content
with the executioner's sword.
Under the criminal code which came
into force in 1882, and which is found.
ed on the code of Napoleon. death by
hanging is provided as q penalty for
certain %offenses, but of recent years
1t has become rarer and may now be
considered obsolete. Probably the
Japanese. with their traditional con-
tempt for death regard penal servitude
Tor life as a greater punishment. For
merly no conviction was made except
On confession by the prisoner. and
there was an abundant use of torture.
That, of course, was officially abolish
ID many years ago, but it was prao.
decd occasionally at a much later date.
and a case is known In which torture
was undoubtedly applied by the police
