GENUINE EGG SHAMPOO.
A Formula for Making n Preparatie n
That IL Absolutely Reliable and
Sure to Please

Many of the compounds called egg
shampoos contain no eggs. They are
generally a stiff soap paste, made up
in substantially this fashion: Take
four ounces of transparent soap, half
an ounce of carbonate of potash, six
ounces of water and two of glycerine.
The soap should be coarsely powdered
and mixed with water in which the
carbonate of potash has already been
dissolved. Heating over fire hastens
the melting of the soap. The glycer-
inc should be mixed in last of all. II
the composition is too firm on cooling,
a little water may be added. A sam
pie may be tested for this purpose
before the whole batch has cooled.
Perfume may be introduced, if it be
wanted.
For genuine egg shampoo the FOL-
lowing formula is recommended. by
the New York Tribune:
Three fresh eggs, half an ounce of
spirit of soap, 100 grains of carbonate
of potash, $50 minims of ammonia wa
ter, two drops of rose oil, the same
amount of bergamot oil, one drop of
geranium oil, one of oil of bitter
almonds, and q ounces of rosewater.
The eggs should be we'll whipped and
mixed with the rosewater. The am
monia water, carbonate of potash and
spirit of soap having first been COM
bined, they may be added to the other
fluid. The whole having been we'll
stirred, the perfumes may be added.
The volume of the latter will be so
small that another vigorous stirring
is essential to their thorough incor-
poration.

The Lord Gave Him Both.

Three northerners who were trav-

Va, among other places and asking
as to the use and purpose of this or
that building, were told in every case
that it was tobacco factory. An
aged negro gave them the greater
part of the information in one neigh
borhood; and they, finally firing of
the monotony of the reply, pointed to
a white frame building on hill and
asked whose tobacco factory it was.
The old fellow peered very steadily
at the building and then replied:

RULES FOR VISITORS.
Guests at House Parties Have Ger
tain Obligations Which Should
Not BE Neglected.

Do not stay too long. It is mucn
TO break into the life of any family,
even for q few days. Pay no atten-
tion to urgings to stay longer, how
ever sincere they seem. Set time
to 60 when you arrive, and stick to
it.
Conform absolutely to the house
hold arrangements, especially az to
times of rising, going to meals, and
retiring. Be ready in ample time for
oil drives or other excursions.
Carry with you all needed toilet
supplies, that you may not be obliged
to mortify your host by pointing out
possible deficiencies in the guest
room, such as clothes brush-the
article most commonly lacking.
Enter heartily into all their plans
for entertaining you, but make it
plain that you do not care to be en-
tertained all the time, or to have
every minute filled with amusement.
Be ready to suggest little plans for
pleasure when you see your host at
loss to entertain you. Try how
we'll you can entertain him for Z
change. Turn about is fair play in
visiting, as well as in everything
else.
Be pleased with all things.
If you ever were brisk and spright-
1y. be so now.
Your high spirits and evident en-
joyment are the only thanks your
host wants.
Take some work with you, so that
when your host has to work you
may keep him in countenance by
working also. More good times are
to be had over work shan over play,
anyway.
Do not argue, or discuss, debatabie
matters. Few things leave worse
taste in the mouth.
Offer to pay the little incidental ex-
penses that will be caused now and
then by your visit; but merely offer
do not insist upon it. which would
be very rude.-Woman's Life.

CAPTURE OF JOHN MORGAN.
How the S0uthern Freebooter aud
Hls Men Were Taken by C0lO-
mel ShackelfOrd.

BY the arrival of the Cleveland &
Pittsburg train one morning we were
placed in possession of the particulars
of the closing scenes of John Nor
gan's great steeplechase through the
Hoosier and Buckeye states, says the
Cleveland Herald.
Gen. Brooks, commanding the de-
partment, had gone to Wellsville and
established his headquarters in the
Cleveland & Pittsburg depot, where
he was assigned by the managing own
ers of the road, who had placed the
transportation and Geographic re-
sources at his disposal. Finding that
there was probability that Morgan
would cross the road at Salineville,
train of cars was sent up the road
about six o'clock Sunday morning,
with a regiment of Pennsylvania in
fantry, under command of Col. Gala
CHER. These were disembarked at
Salineville and marched to a point
about two miles distant, where the
confederates were expected to cross.
The infantry were posted on some
rising ground commanding the road,
with orders to prevent Morgan's pass
age. In short time the expected
troops made their appearance, coming
around bend in the road. On catch
ing sight of the infantry, they halted
and turned their horses heads in an
other direction. Before they could get
out of the trap in which they found
themselves, Maj. Wray, with $50 men
of the Ninth Michigan cavalry, dashed
among them and commenced cutting
right and left. The Johnnies made but
brief resistance. A few shots were
fred by them and the whole party
broke in confusion.
Men dismounted, threw down their
arms and begged for quarter, while
others galloped around wildly i'm
search of place of escape. and were
drought to time" by pistol shot or
saber stroke. Morgan himself was rid
ing in a carriage. Maj. Wray saw him,
and galloping up, reached for him.
Morgan jumped out at the other side
of the carriage, leaped over a fence,
seized horse and galloped off as fast
as horsefesh, spurred on by frightened
heels, could carry him. About couple
of hundred of his men succeeded in
breaking away and following their
fugitive leader. In the carriage thus
hastily evacuated" by Morgan were
found his "rations," consisting of a
loaf of bread, some hard boiled eggs
and bottle of whisky. Morgan and
the remainder of his forces pressed
three citizens of Salineville into their
service as guides, and continued their
flight on the New Lisbon road.
One of the guides made his escape,
and rode back, conveying intelligence
of the route taken. Forces were inn
mediately dispatched from Wellsville
to head him off, anotherforce followed

Here's a Queer Situation.

Twin sisters, each with u different
birthday-stranger yet, for each was
born in a different year. That is the
curious situation at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. John Stiff, $50 Sheffield av-
enue, Chicago. They are the parents
of the twins, and the story of the
birth of the babies in different years
is now going the rounds of the
neighborhood of Center street and
Sheffield avenue, where Mr.. Stiff,
who is a fireman at the North av-
enue and Larrabee street station, is
well known One of the twins was
born at 1915 .. m. on the last day OF
1907, and along after midnight, an

Pinch it gently on the top.
So your dough will be protected.
Lest the cooking juices pop.
When your apples are all covered,
Take a fork and prick them through

Half dozen times will do.
Bake them slowly, and, while cooking,
Take of sugar just q cup,

And with light hand cream them up,
Adding extract and your hard sauce
Set on ice to harden more;5

The Bunkers' ball was over, and
Polly was sleeping soundly in her bed
the next morning. The bell rang, and
Mrs. Tattler was ushered into the par
lor. She had come to call on Mrs.
Hackett. Mrs. Tattler had been bid

now she had come as early as this to

proved the appropriation for the Hack

whole. The vote was 10 to in favor
of placing the item in the bill With
this item disposed of there were only a
few matters left in the unpaid bills act,
and as these were in the hands of spe-
cial committees, the committee of the
whole rose and reported progress, and
the House began work on Senate bill
No. 3, the six months salary bill.
There was a good deal of discussion
about clerks, and Beckley objected to
the employment of women in public
offices. Kumalae objected to steno-
graphars and wanted to cut down the
number of clerks, in the office of the
secretary.
In the judiciary department the old
fight against Interpreter Chester Doyle
was resumed. Some of the members
wanted to cut his salary The salary
of the stenographers was cut from $1,000
to 5000 and the Chinese interpreter was
cut to $3.50. Hawaiian Interpreters
were left at $500. The question of the
Japanese interpreter was not settled
when the House adjourned.
