SCIENCE OF BUSTING.
work Perfectly Clean, without
Injurinx Them.

With clean, dry busters wipe down
the sidewalks, faces of pictures
and the woodwork. AS often as
the cloth is full of dust take
it to the window and shake thor
oughly; when grimy, change it for a
fresh one. A feather buster is not
recommended, as it merely flips dust
from one article to another and does
not remove it. Clean off finger marks
and soiled spots on paint and wood
work by using water containing a
little ammonia or borax. When there
is fireplace in the room wash the
hearth; if there is any iron work go
over it with cloth slightly damp
ened with kerosene. Carefully re-
move the dust sheets, folding them
with the dusty side in and send out
of doors to be shaken and aired be-
fore folding and putting them away
for the next week. Have the windows
washed, also the mirrors, and all gas
globes or shades. Close the win
dows, arrange the draperies; replace
furniture and ornaments, and the
room is done.
Where hall is to be swept, remove
all clothing from the hat rack, carry
out the rugs, pin up and cover all
draperies, put movable furniture into
the nearest rooms after busting each
piece. See that all doors are closed.
Begin at the upper hall, sweep and
take up the dust as each landing is
reached. Use the whisk and hair
brushes on the stairs; if carpeted.
whisk the dust on the pan at each
step. Follow the same methods in
busting, being especially careful to go
thoroughly over each stair rail.-N.

ABOUT GLASS BATHTUBS.
From Present Indications They Are
Soon to Supplant Those Of En-
amel and Metal.

Bathtubs of glass may be expected
to replace enamel and metal ones
soon. They are being made in Ger
many now and are said to have many
advantages over metal and enamel,
the principal one being that they are
much cheaper, says the Philadelphia
Telegraph. Besides bathtubs, tanks
and watts such as are used by brew
ers, distillers and sugar refiners are
being made of glass, and the manu-
facturer is confident that he can re-
place those for which clay, wood,
cement and metal are now commonly
used, with superior articles construct
ed at lower cost. Glass bathtubs are
not fragile. Those being made now
are five and six feet long, about two
feet wide and about two and one-half
inches thick. They are made in a.
solid piece, and one can be made COM
plete in about five minutes.
This is owing to a new process of
blowing glassware by means of COM
pressed air. The process was invented
in Pittsburg about 20 years ago, but
was limited to making bottles and
similar small-sized articles. Paul
Stevert, of Dresden, has improved it,
and under his process there need be
no limit, within reason, to the size of
the article made. The method is SIM
plicity itself. The molten glass is
taken from the furnace and placed in
a mold, which can readily be swung
to any desired position. Compressed
air is thus admitted through a fexi-
BILE tube which connects with the bot
tom of the mold. The air pressure is
regulated by valves. AS soon as the
article is finished it is switched into
an annealing chamber, where it is
again heated and then allowed to
COOL This toughens it, and after the
process it is ready for use.
Plates of large size are being made
of glass by an adaptation of the same
process. In this case an ornamental
design is first made on sheet of Pc
culiar composition, which remains
moist for some time. Colored glass
is spread over this to work out the
design. Then the sheet is placed on
the glass plate and the whole is heat
ed in the oven. The heat consumes the
sheet on which the design was made,
leaving only the layer of colored glass,
welded into the plate. Some remark
able and very picturesque effects are
made in this way.

Persian Complexion Secret.

Persian ladies', who are said to have
compilations whose bloom and velvety
softness are simply wonderful, use no
cream or ointment or their faces. In
stead, they apply, half an hour be-
fore their daily bath, a coating of
white of egg. When this has COM
pletely dried it is sponged off with
tepid water, 10 which is added little
tincture OF henzoin, and then the
skin is sponged over with cold milk.
The white of egg cleanses the skin.
and the treatment described removes
all impurities from the complexio...
leaving it smooth and soft as that Of
a child.-N. Y. Weekly.

Indians Tricky in Busin ess.

Indians on the reservation near
Green Bay, Wis, are fast developing
traits that belle their supposed sim
plicity in business transactions. For
many years the chief source of their
revenue has been in selling ginseng
to Milwaukee and St. Louis dealers.
Only the dried root has CONNER
cial value, however, and, though the
price is five dollars per pound, they
could not make enough to satisfy
them, and at last hit upon . novel
scheme whereby their gains might
be increased at the expense of the
dealers. When fresh dug the GIN
seng roots are large and juicy, and it
was an easy matter to scoop out the
central part and fill it with sub
stance having more specific gravity
than ginseng. Generally they used
shot, but gravel, bits of iron, and
even glass have been discovered by
the wholesale men at Milwaukee,
with the result that they have ceased
buying from the Indians.-Chicago

Won ans Lot in Japan.

According to western ideas the mar
ried woman in Japan is not to be
envied. A Japanese girls marriage
dowry consists of nothing beyond her
dresses, little writing desk, box of
cosmetics and other toilet necessar-
les, couple of little dining tables
and few lacquer plates. Japanese
women do not inherit fortunes, and
in families where there is no son one
is adopted as an heir. Women OF
the poorer classes are most to be
pitied A husband is as free as
bachelor, and can do exactly what he
chooses. A man marries when he
likes. and when ne tires of his wife
he may put her away and take an
other with as little fuss as we make
about changing our tradespeople.
These exchanges, or divorces, are most
frequent among the poor, but are
comparatively rare among the upper
classes.

IVY AWNING SCREENS.

fashioned :three-legged iron crane pot.
Another resourceful housekeeper
who has had large experience with
house plants found last winter that
English ivy would grow gratefully if
allowed vase of fresh water every
day in which to keep its green toes
moist. With the coming Of spring she
dared not plant her ivy out of doors,
knowing it could not withstand the
whitening heat of our climate. Ac-
cordingly she bought two green boxes,
made of small green tiles, filled them
with rich earth and larger portion
Of sand, and, taking two well-grown ivy
sprays from the water, she planted
them on either side of her plain hearth.
Two more sprays she put in boxes and
put them on either end of the black
marble mantel shelf. I
The ivy has already grown up and
down, and promises to throw rich
green veil over the whole fireplace,
frame the mirror above it and do away
with bric-a-brac at that point. AS hers
is city house, where, on her hus Stands
account, she spends the ma jor portion
of every summer, she finds the curtain
of green a most delightful and refresh
ing ornament.
- The florists, who are always quick
to accept good ideas. have come to
realization of the fact that something
is needed for fireplace decoration in
summer. Accordingly the fireplace
screen has been introduced. In the
leaves of the screen the ribbons and
tendrils of iron form series of brack-
cts, into which large and small green
tile pots fit. In the pots all manner of
trailing green things are rooted, and
their garlands and long tendrils, weav-
ing as they grow through the wrought
iron fret work, form delicate and ef-
fectual screen for the whole hearth.

ment the florist will measure fire
