Supposed Child Beating
Was Done.

Yesterday We printed an article in
which some neiShborS accused man
on Walnut avenue Of terribly beating
his child This morning NJ. c. Mil
Ter came in and said he must be the
man spoken Of. He brought along
the stick with which he whipped the
14-yeur-old child, and it may be seen
at this office. The stick is not large
enough to whip a 4-year-old with, and
from what Mr.. Miller said the boy de-
served whipping that he would not
forget He said that the neiShbOrs
must have been excited. Mr.. Miller
showed very nice spirit in the mat
ter and did not seem to hold any
malice toward his IieiShbors who call

Magazine Covers.

A very useful object is a linen cover
to keep a magazine in while it is in
use, and is a nice little present for
a friend. To make it get some grass
linen, measure the size of the maya
zine you wish to cover and allow three
inches over on each of the four sides.
On the piece which is to be on the
upper part of the book embroider in
pretty letters the word Magazine" or
the name of the special one for which
it is to be used. The former is the most
useful, as it can be used to cover any
| publication it may fit. The title should
be in the center. If that is the only
word embroidered. But sometimes the
initials of the owner are worked as
well. Then the title should be at the
top and the initials in the center. Take
piece of paper the exact size of the
piece of linen, and very carefully
cover the magazine in the way books
are generally covered with paper and
mark the folds well. Lay this on the
linen and mark the folds at the cor
ners and back. Cut off the pieces turn
ed in at the top and bottom of the back
and buttonhole stitch over the cut part.
Miter the four corners by cutting out
the pieces turned in, leaving enough
turnings to sew firmly on the wrong
side. Buttonhole stitch the raw edges
all round, press with a warm iron all
the folds and corners and sew piece
of narrow elastic to the top and bottom
of the inside of the back, through which
half the book is passed to keep the
cover in place.
cover for a railway guide can be
made in the same way, but, as the
covers of the book are of very limp
paper, pieces of cardboard must be
slipped into the linen cover fitting the
sides exactly, which will make a firm
and durable case and last for many
months editions.

Besides being such an essential part
of culinary art, salt has many other
uses perhaps not generally known. Salt
cleanses the palate and furred tongue,
and a gargle of salt and water is often
efficacious. A pinch of salt on the
tongue. followed ten minutes after by a
drink of cold water, often cures a sick
headache. Salt hardens the gums,
makes the teeth white and sweetens
the breath. Salt added to the water in
which cut flowers stand keeps them
fresh. Sailed water and alcohol in So
luton should be used for rubbing weak
ankles. Salt used dry in the same man
ner as snuff will do much to relieve
colds, hay fever, etc. Salt in warm
water if used for bathing tired eyes
will be found very refreshing. Salt and
water will stop hemorrhage from tooth

Russia and Japan western
people have become suddenly interest
ed in the manners and customs of both
of these nations. what they do in
Russia and in Japan" is an expression
one hears on all sides. The sympathy
of Americans is for the most part with
the plucky little Jap, but as a social
function the smart set has taken up
with enthusiasm the Russian tea" as
a summer diversion.
For this new afternoon function my
lady must needs have a handsome
samovar in which to brew the cheering
beverage An ancient samovar is an
enviable possession, but, barring this. a
stunning copper urn of modern work.
manship polished to the vanishing
point takes the place Of honor on her
tea table.
This table is laid with a cloth made
beautiful with Russian cross stitch en-
broidery or some elaborate border work
carried out in gold thread and gay col
ored silks.
Russian tea is generally made in
small teapot, two or three teaspoon
fuls being considered sufficient for
on top of a samovar. which every
one knows is a kind of copper kettle
30 constructed as to burn charcoal in
an inner tube, so that a plentiful supply
OF hot water is always ready, while the
teapot by this means is kept hot at the
same time. The Russians drink their
tea out OF a tall tumbler which has
about an inch of the beverage poured
into 1t and is then filed up with hot
water from the samoyar. Thin slices
of lemon and brandy are served with
the drink. and in some instances cook
ed cherries and other fruits are mixed
with it, or a spoonful of jam is stirred
in, but occidental palates will hardly
appreciate these additional fiavorings.
The quality of tea used by the Rus
sian is invariably of a superior quality
Even the lower classes pay a good
price for this luxury. 1t is brought
overland from China, generally in the
form of bricks. and this is the reason
why the tea in the cars empire is SO
remarkably good. A sea journey has a
bad effect upon tea. no matter how
carefully 1t is packed

the menu of the lower orders is none

sneezy name of tschi, and as the favor

concoction and vegetables are served

quantities of pork are consumed we
will not inquire too infinitely into its
composition. Every man to his taste,
but ours would not be Russian tschf.
Tea drinking after the Japanese
fashion is equally fashionable and
smart as when served Ia Russo. A
large function of this kind would be
very pleasant arranged on a country
house porch made bowerlike with
branches of cherry or ounce blossoms.
The oriental shops have these flowers
so closely resembling nature that the
deception is almost perfect. The tea

A Russian tea en- costume would be a
pretty affair, as the national dress is
very picturesque, consisting of a dam
ask robe cut somewhat in the empire
style, held under the arms by a short
scarlet tunic bordered with gold braid
and draped over a long skirt.
The headdress is a diadem of red
velvet embroidered with pearls or
spangles. This costume would be rath

and among the lower classes sugar is
not deemed essential, but when used a
lump of it is held between the teeth,

Such an important part is played by
the samovar in Russian domestic life
that there is proverb often quoted

Tula is a manufacturing town where
samovars are made and exported all
