WY SILVER rAnsfsaEA

Although every housekeeper is pam.
yllly aware of the tendency of silver
ware to part with Its brilliancy and
become furnished when exposed to or
binary atmospheric influences, many
do not know that the cause Of the
furnishing is the action Of sulphur in
the air. Unless frequently cleaned
the surface of silver will become
black in the course Of a few months.
The best way to keep silver bright,
without the necessity of cleaning, is
said to be to coat the surface with a
thin solution Of collodion Yarnish di-
luted with spirits of wine. After be-
ing applied with a soft brush the spir-
it evaporates, leaving a thin, glossy,
transparent film on the polished sur
face. Warm water removes the var
nish. Tarnished silver may be re-
stored by careful rubbing with a soft
cloth wet with dilute solution of potas-
SUM syanide,-one ounce to quart
of water,-folloWed by rinsing.

Los Angeles, Wants.

The trouble with Los Angeles, says
the Los Angeles Times, is that we
want so many things, and we want
them all at once-good telephone SER
vice, more shade, clean streets, more
paved streets, wires of all kinds I'M
derground, bigger water mains, more
school houses, another sewer to the

convenient hall, a speed ordinance
that is strictly enforced, fewer sa-
looms, no bucket shops and no pool
rooms, less oil on the streets, less dust
and few other things too numerous

The Ruler of Morocco.

The Sultan Of Morocco is described
as progressive young man whose
misfortunes are quite undeserved.
Though he grew up in the seclusion
of an Oriental palace and had no real
education from the western point of
view, he has thrown off the cramping
influence of early training and is keen
to acquire knowledge. Europeans who
have visited his court have been
struck by his unusual intelligence, and
they say he-actually does possess a
rough working acquaintance with the
practical side of modern science.

BIRDS THAT PLANT TREES.
Nature Has Plan for the Psrpetuation
of Forests

An old-time Arizona woodchopper
says the bluejays have planted thou
sands of trees now growing all over
Arizona He says these birds have
habit of burying small seeds in the
ground with their beaks, and that
they frequently pinion trees and bury
large numbers of the small pine nuts
in the ground, many Of which sprout
and grow. He was walking through
the pines with an eastern gentle
man short time ago, when one Of
these birds flew from tree to the
ground, stuck his bill into the earth
and quickly flew away. When told
what had happened the eastern man
was skeptical, but the two went to
the spot and with a knife blade dug
out sound pine nut from a depth of
about an inch and a half Thus IL
will be seen that nature has her own
plan for forest perpetuation.
