Household
Matters


The uses of ammonia in the house.
hold are many. In cleaning of any
kind it should be used in the pro.
portion of one tablespoonful to quart
of water. 1t makes the water softer
than rain water. Smoky lamp chin.
neys, window panes and mirrors all
respond quickly to ammonia. When a
stain is produced by lemon juice or any
other acid, nothing is so effectual as
ammonia in neutralizing and thus re-.
moving it. A few drops to a pint of
water sprinkled on the roots of house
plants will produce an abundant
growth. Stains on marble can be re-.
moved by rubbing them we'll with a
toothbrush dipped in powdered chalk
and ammonia.

WHY THE INDIAN FAILS.
BE Looks Upon Education Right
and Not as Privilege.

and Not as n Privilege.
There are in operation at the present
time 113 boarding schools. with an av-
erage attendance of something over
10000 pupils ranging from five to twen-
ty-one years old. These pupils are
gathered from the cabin the wick-i-up
and the tepee. Partly by cajolery and
partly by threats, partly by bribery
and partly by fraud, partly by persua-
sion anu partly by force, they are in
duced to leave their kindred TO enter
these schools and take upon them
selves the outward semblance of civil
lied life. They are chosen not on ac-
count of any particular merit of their
OVID, not by reason of mental fitness,
but solely because they have Indian
blood in their veins. Without any pre-
vious training, without any prepara-
tion whatever, they are transported to
schools, sometimes thousands of miles
away, with no expense to themselves
or their people. The Indian youth
finds himself at once. as if by magic,
translated from Ii state of poverty to
clothed and lodged. Books and all the
accessories of learning are given him,
and teachers apa provided to instruct
him. He is educated both in the in
dustrial and the liberal arts. Beyond
"the three rs" he is instructed in geo.
graphy, grammar and history; he is
taught drawing, algebra, geometry,
music, astronomy, physiology. botany
and entomology. Matrons wait on
him while he is well and physicians
and nurses tend him when he is sick.
A steam laundry does his washing and
the latest modern appliances do his
cooking. A library affords him relaxa-
tion for his leisure hours, athletic
sports and the gymnasium furnish him
with exercise and recreation, while
music entertains him in the evening.
He has hot and cold baths, steam heat
and electric light and all the modern
conveniences. The child of the wig
wan becomes modern Aladdin, who
has only to rub the Government lamp
to crafty his desires.
He remains until his education Is
finished, when he is returned to his
home, which by contrast must seem
squalid indeed; to the parents whom
his education must make it impossible
to honor, and is left to make his way
against the ignorance and bigotry of
his tribe. Is it any wonder he fails:
Is it surprising if he lapses into bar
barism? Not having earned his edu-
cation, it is not appreciated. 1t is
looked upon as a right and not as a
privilege; it is accepted as favor to
the Government and not to the recip.
lent, and the almost inevitable ten
dency is to encourage dependence, fos-
ter pride and create a spirit of AFRO
gance and selfishness. - William A.
Jones, in the Worlds Work.

The lemon belongs to the orange
family. Its principal use is in making
lemonade, and ether cooling drinks.
While most lemons used in this
country are at present imported from
Mediterranean ports, it will be a mat
ter Of only a few years when this
country will not only be able to supply
its own wants, but as in the case of
other fruits will have a superabun.
dance wherewith to supply foreign
countries.
The American lemon as grown in
California, although not as long-lived
as that of Southern Europe, is really
better, being thinner skinned and con-
tanning more citric acid.

women's Faces on Postage Clamp.

For more than fifty years our Gov
ernment has been making postage
stamps. The first issue, in 1S47, repre-
sented but two values, and on each
was printed the likeness of q promi-
nent mana policy ever since cen
tinued. Other nations have women's
faces on their stamps. Why rot the
United States? Surely we have repre-
sentative women enough. There was
Dorothea Dix, for instance, whose
work for the insane marked an era;
Maria Mitchell, whose pure mentality
and . magnificent reasoning faculty
made her pre-eminent; Frances Will
! lard, whose reform work claims recog.
milton; not to mention our many noted
literary women. There is also q
,dusky face well worth considering;
the face of woman who holds q
unique position in our history and who
had much to do in keeping alive that
struggling English colon. on the
James River-why not her face? Why
not Pocahontas Julia Fraser, in the

Americans Who Move.

Study of the recent United States
census shows some remarkably in
teresting facts, and among them the
one that we are the greatest nation
of rolling stones on the earth, but,
Notwithstanding that fact, we succeed
in gathering the moss of material pros
perity.
The official figures show that out of
a native born population Of G5,S43,302
there are 13,S63,651 living in States
different from those in which they
We're born. That is, more than one
person out of five has left the State
of his birth to seek his fortune else
where.
II we count the 10,4G0,T3G foreign
born residents we find that about one
third of the population has moved
from the State or country of birth.
These figures show our mobility to be
in the ratio of ten to one as compared
with that of Europe.
The State of New York has sent out
100000 of her children, who are now
residing in other States, and has re-
ceived from other States in their stead
534 900 residents. Vermont has q most
remarkable record which shows that
she has children living in other States
equal in number to one-half of her
present population.

WOMEN TOURISTS.
American Girls the Most Self-Ee1iant Ac-
cording to an Expert.

cording to an Expert.
If any man is entitled to an opinion
as to women travellers, it surely is one
who for years has accompanied Cooks
tourist parties in all parts of the world.
Joseph I. Young, who has been long
an attache of the famous London
agency, declares that beyond doubt
the best lady traveller is the American
girl. Il reach this conclusion" says
Mr.. Young, latter an experience ex-
tending over q number of years and
embracing recollections Of travel in
Z every country of the globe. Of course,
have been all over the United States,
and wherever l went in that country
found the tendency Of education was
Ito make women self-reliant in q de-
gree unknown elsewhere. The Ameri-
can girl thinks nothing of travelling
from the Atlantic to the Pacific un-
attended. She goes to Europe, to
Japan, to Africa, alone and in perfect
security, and is always sure of meet
ing with respect.
"As a rule women are not good
travellers. Some engage berth on
a frst-class steamer, find they are I'M
able to start at the appointed time,
and wind up by sailing in a slow
freighter. We have a good deal Of
trouble with the woman vino reads q
lot of guide-books before she starts.
She is usually so busy finding the
proper page that she misses some of
the best sights. Then there is the
woman who travels with too much
luggage. The experienced person pro-
vides herself with the smallest possible
amount of such impediments, wears
a serviceable dress with few invisible
\ pockets, and is happy. The greatest
luggage fiend is the English girl, who
is liable to have as many as fifteen
packages, and wonders why she some
times loses one or two. Taken as
whole, women are not so much Of
trial as might be imagined. Nearly
always they graciously recognize good
attendance, and pleasant smile from
one Of them goes farther, even with
q surly guide, than a handsome tip
from some men."-Chicago Chronicle.

tgTVA. Women, Marry If You Can.
SIT is not a question Of How to be
happy though unmarried" said Miss
Yendis frankly to the agitated persons
who sought to write an equation in
terms of marriage and happiness at
the meeting Of the Study Of Life So
ciety. 1T is a question Of how to be
married under any conditions" This
new and refreshing note in
the evenings discussion. Il never
have been asked the important ques-
tion," confessed Miss Yendis. Il have
had hard luck, for l have been keenly
alive to every possible opportunity,
advise those girls who are dreaming
of matrinony in the future not to wait
upon the order Of acceptance, but to
hustle and say yes, for one-half slide
on the matrimonial toboggan is better
than none" Most of the unmarried
speakers had made the spurning of
an unworthy suitor such an act of
virtue that Miss Yendis's prosaic as
sumption of yearning to marry any
one relieved the tension Of the too
good-for-th e-ordinary-world sentiment
that had been in the ascendency.-
