Pronounced the Most Interesting
Part of a Newspaper.
An inveterate newspaper reader was
overheard to say the other day, says
the Chicago Tribune, after an hours
strict attention to the news: ''The most
entertaining part of a big daily is the
Lost and Found column. Some peo-
pie look at the sporting news, others
for the deaths and marriages, but lost
articles and other rewards are my par
ticular fancy. If you study these slosts'
you will have pretty fair idea of your
fellow creatures common sense and
their ability to hold on to what belongs
to them. Sooner or later the horseshoe
pin runs off with the hat pin, and the
cluster diamond ring disappears with
the pearl crescent. A popular elope-
ment is in the purse with jewelry, but
the lightsome fashion with which pock-
etbooks lose themselves in this sinful
world shows how careless mortals be
and that nobody ever learns anything
by another's dear experience.
1.-THE rewards offered for missing
treasures indicate their value to the los
er. Some are quite pathetically large.
others recklessly so, but saving clause
is the laconic No questions asked and
then feel the case is truly desperate
and the watch chain and locket must
have departed under peculiar circum-
stances. The lady who was seen to
pick up,' etc., is another thrilling in
stance of a losers despair, for the
chances are it is mere supposition, and
no lady picked up anything. Now and
then it is a yellow headed parrot that
goes astray to vary the endless variety
of dogs whose owners publicly sorrow
for their loss. About this live article
there is always sense of tragedy, and
when note found dog in the list
mentally congratulate whoever had the
kind thought to advertise it and thus
to put an end to the anxiety in its
home"

How to clean a Shetland shawl

The Shetland floss shawl or scarf in
which the summer girl delights is prac-
tically spoiled if Numbered according
to the usual method, so some special
way must be devised for restoring
its freshness when it becomes soiled
says the Brooklyn Eagle. Dry clean
ing with starch, meal, flour or the like
is highly recommended, but a young
woman has discovered one way to
launder white shawl satisfactorily.
She made suds with warm water and
white soap. adding a little ammonia,
and sopped the shawl gently around in
this, squeezing, but never lifting the
mass of wool A large pan was util-
lied for the washing process and when
the suds was poured off fresh rinsing
water was added twice After the sec
ond rinsing every possible drop of
moisture was squeezed out of the
shawl and the pan set over the warm
ing oven Of the range. The shawl was
turned over and over until perfectly
dry, when it looked as good as new.

80 stern thai for a time they were
speeches.. He had entered through
door of which Caterina had no knowl-
edge, built by some jealous Cornaro of
long ago, who had caused this place of
espial to be made that he might the
better prove his fears. Indeed they
might all have been carven stone.
There was no motion in the room but
the waving of the arras in the evening
breeze that blew through the easement
the slender youth in his cavalier garb
Of dark velvet, the stern mailed old
patrician and between them. like some
tropic flower blown athwart strange
gray glooms, Caterina in her bridal
robes Of cloth of gold, the coronal of ru-
bies blazing above her brow.
Andrea bowed low before the ancient
foe of the house and, with one last lin
gering look at Caterina, awaited the
Cornaro's pleasure. He had dared the
strictest law of the republic. He knew
the penalty.
Cornaro hesitated. There were wrath,
love and mighty sorrow in his stormy
eyes as they went from one young face
to the other A Morosini, the child of
his deadliest foe! But he saw through
the mist of long, lonely years little
rosy face pressed against a childish
breast, little head that lay within
the curve of a round, white arm, so
like, so like, and Guilia, who had died,
spoke across the night of her unlived
motherhood to the heart of her hus-
band. The wrath died. He was pow
erless. He could not brook the might
Of the republic that claimed his child
upon the altar of its ambition, but he
could save her needless pain.
Already the surge of feet was COM
ing up the long passage. The fanfare
of trumpets and the voice of Venice,
that was many voices, clamored for
their princess. Below the gilded barge
of the doge awaited her. Nevermore
his child, but always the daughter of
Venice.
There was an instant when the gold
en- head lay against the steel corselet,
another when Guido Cornaro saw his
child give her lips to the Morosini, and
then he flung wide the door to the Sc
cret passage and motioned to Andrea.
And so without word he passed
from her sight and her life, while her
father led her down the rose garlanded
stairway to the bitterness of the gilded
mockery that awaited.
There was battle next day, mere
skirmish between a Venetian war gal
ley and one of Genoa. At its close
they found him lying where the thick
Of the fight had passed, smile on his
lips, a crushed white rose above his
heart In Venice the people laughed
and sang. and there was joy day and
night for the week long bridal of Cate
rina Cornaro, the daughter of Venice,
and King James de Lusignan.

HOW TO SELECT CHEESE.
expert Explains How to Tell the
Good From the Bad.


Good From the Bad.
Most housekeepers quail before that
part Of the family marketing which re-
lates to the purchase of cheese and
wish the man of the house, who is usu-
ally the chief consumer as well as the
critic, would always buy it, says the
Chicago Tribune. Such may find the
words of an authority of value:
"A cheese with an indication of good
ness will have an even colored not
notified. rind The moment you press
your finger tips on the rind you can be-
gin to judge Of the inferior makeup of
a cheese. Ii it yields readily to the
pressure of the fingers and the rind
breaks or does not spring back readily
when the pressure is withdrawn, you
have got soft article, caused by the
slack cooling of the curd. want of
acid. or both.
cat best it will have an insipid fla
vor and will go off as it ages. Cheese
which feels SO hard that you cannot
press it on the rind is either sour, salt
ed too heavily cooked too much, skim
med, or suffering frous touch OF all
these complaints.
"A good cheese will be mellow to the
touch. yet firm. Its rind will be of an
even tint, elastic and free from puffs,
and the sample will reveal hrm. close
grained. buttery cheese of nutty fla
vor.''
Recently physician said that the on
~ danger from eating cheese lies in the
fact that Americans eat too large a
quantity of it at a time. A cube about
an inch square was said to be all that
one should eat of English cheese, for
example, at one time. Cheese that is
fully cured and properly eaten is not
only easily digested. but an excellent
and valuable food. Especially is this
true Of the better grades.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, March 3.-Active liqui-

day, resulting in price losses at one
time from l to points for the princi-
pal active stocks. There were one or
two abortive rallies on occasional
profit-taking by bears, but they were
not well held and the lowest prices of
the day were touched during the final
hour. There was a very substantial
rally then, reaching from l to points
for many market leaders, due to the
general covering of shorts to take
profits on the days decline. but the
market became unsettled again, and
closed easy.
The practical abandonment of the
Aldrich financial bill affected senti-
ment even at the opening, but vigor-
Gus supporting orders were distributed
in the market, and the decline was
effectually checked. The vigorous
upward movement in Manhattan help
ed to this end. At this point the effect
of the money situation became con-
crete by the calling of loans to a
large extent by the banks. This forced
considerable liquidation and the bears
made successive drives against the
market to take IL away from the SELL
