The Care of Cut Glass.

A wooden tub should be used for
washing cut glass; and the water in
which it is cleaned should not be too
warm for the hands. A sudden change
Of temperature is bad for glassware.
and it should never be left upon mar
BILE or stone. The deeper the cutting,
the more liable it is to be broken.
Decanters and water bottles which
have become discolored may be
cleansed with soft cloth guided by a
wire. Discoloring may be removed
by placing shot with bits of paper and
strong soap suds in the vessel and
shaking them we'll together. Beans are
sometimes used instead Of shot. A
tablespoonful of muriatic acid to a
pint of water will remove obstinate
stains. For cleansing the outside,
cloths and towels and a brush are
necessary. The washing and rinsing
waters should not vary much in tenn
perature. A soft towel should be placed
under the dishes when draining. To
secure a high polish vigorously rub
glassware when it is warm, with per-
fectly clean towel. Glass which is
ornamented with gold should be
washed in suds made of CASTLE soap.
and should be wiped dry as soon as it
is washed. Finely cut glass should be
kept in closed cabinet and not ham

rich beauty, soft liquid eyes and ex-
quisitely nodded figure, gowned in
some connection" from Paris, have
already won for her a conspicuous
place in the European society of Cairo,

official, and has, since her husbands
death, lived with her brother, Colonel
Beauchamp, one of the most gallant
| officers who had gone through the ter
rible campaign of 1885.

just brought in the afternoon cup of

that. > >-s.s55sss: .s r:

with her; but she knew Cleland would
overhear it, so there was nothing for
her but to walk on to the house. u.
Margaret did not see Cleland until
she was close to the seat, and then,
with a little start, she would have
passed, merely bowling slightly; but
Cleland rose at once. ~:
You meant to take this seat, Doc
tor Crawford. Don't let me deprive
you OF it. shall vacate it if you would
prefer to be alone"
There was nothing for Margaret but
to sit down, which she did at once.
Cleland stood beside her. A volume OF
poems lay on the seat; it was one OF
Browning's.
You have been reading Browning, I
see,' said Margaret, little nervously.
Yes. He is my fayorite poet-my
only poet, indeed
How we'll Margaret knew that! She
touched the book with fingers that
were not quite steady.
After pause Cleland spoke again.
Il had dear friend once-it seems
very long ago." he said, looking, not at
her, but at the far-off ridge of Pen-y-

troduced Browning. remember one
day, 1t was early April, and we had
gone long walk-the only pre-ar-
ranged walk I ever went with her-to
the Pentlands. We sat down on a
messy knoll above Bonally, where we
could look down on the silvery Forth
In the far-off distance, and I read
aloud to her. May I read the same
thing to you now, Doctor Crawford ?"
Margaret, looking up with sudden
flush of fear in her eyes, merely bowed.
She sat still and motionless as he
read aloud, in voice that sounded
deeper than usual, the words that had
become so familiar to her after that
day on which he first read them aloud
on the green slopes Of the grassy Pent-
lands. They had haunted her then
for days afterwards, and they seemed
now to stir a chord in her memory
that ached until it almost became I'M
bearable, as she sat with her pale, dark
eyed face turned from him.
We two stood there with never third:
But each by each, as each knew we'll,
The sights we saw, and the sounds we
heard,
The lights and the shades made up a
spell.
Till the trouble grew and stirred.
|: Oh, the little more, and how much it
is!
And the little less, and what worlds
away!
He paused abruptly, but even then
did not look at her.
Then-what was it "a sudden move
ment of the little white hands-a
movement which he saw, and which
seemed, in strange, vague way, to re-
veal all to him, compelled him to turn
and look into her face.
She was leaning back against the
old-fashioned summer seat, her face
pale as death, her lips parted, and her
breath coming in short, unequal pants,
as if she were fighting hard with her
self. .':..-rs +, 49,,
In a moment Paul Cleland's arms
were round her, and once again her
head lay for one brief moment against
his breast.

Five Miles AN Hour.

There is no shadow of a possible
shadow of doubt that the day of the
motor car and automobile fiend is at
an end in Paris and the same may be
said of the scorching cyclist. The
roar, the kissing sound and the cloud
of dust are no more Their desperate
recklessness has led the police to
cut down to eight kilometers, which
is only a shade over five miles an
hour, their authorized speed, and
twenty-three summonses were issued
in one day in single ACCOMPLISHMENT.

THE CHRISTMAS MYTH,

Some comedgeon correspondent of |
The San Francisco Examiner has |
written a protest against filling child |
rem up with the idea that there is a !,
real Santa Clause, with long white |
beard, riding on a rain deer and car
rying a pack Of presents on his back. |
The man who would suggest that the |
children be dissillusionised from this |
delightful belief in the existence OF
the patron saint Of Christmas, de-
serves something more than in
prisonment for life,
1t is these happy illusions of child
hood that makes childhood 80 full of
real genuine happiness. As neon1e
grow older there are thousands Of
other Illusions that vanish with the
years and each disappearing creation
of hope and fancied reality that
leaves us, goes with an awkward
wrench which leaves a shock behind
and oftimes an ugly wound.
Would it not De a mercy to many
if they could cherish all the illusions
of life until they sunk into the grave
and never have their minds disabused
1t might make the world fools par
adice, but it would be a paradice all
the same. And would not we all pre-
fer to live in it and dream in it (pro-
up) than have all the hard, cold AMI
bitter realities and frozen facts OF
life ground into US.
Suppose that we could really be

New York. Aug 22-Matthew }. Har-
rlngton is making an active canvass for
the Republican leadership of the
\%NVth Assembly District in opposition
to Edward II. Healy. who has been the
leader for nine years. A working organ
lZation has been effected in each of the
R election districts. and Harrington is
making nightly speaking tours of the
district. The chief charge made against
fealy is that under his leadership the
Republican party has suffered successive
defeats. and that the Democratic majori-
ties have increased. Healy is blamed in n
measure for the defeat of Coroner Berry,
the fusion candidate last year for
borough president against Louis +. I1af-
fen.
Harrington IS assisted in his fight by his
wife. who accompanies him on his tours
and Is present every night at Harrington's
headquarters in Forest avenue. to hear
the reports of her husbands captains and
to make suggestions for the conduct of
the campaign This is not new expert
ence Of Mrs. Harrington, as she has for
several years accompanied her husband
on his speaking tours.
Hugh Duffy. who is popularity known
as the Mayor of Springhurst. has offered
to pay Healy 800 If he will meet him in
debate on the issues of the primary fight
and to pay him $500 if he duffy is de-
featcd.

Cut Down Just in Time.

Mllburn, N. j., Aug. 22.-Miss Henri
eta Eckerman, in an attack of suicidal
mania, attempted to hang herself with
q piece Of clothesline. Her sister-in
law, at whose house she was staying.
suspected that she was contemplating
suicide and summoned the girls
brother, who was working at mill
quarter Of a mile away. The brother
raced with all speed, and arrived a few
moments after the girl had hanged
herself. He cut the body down with
the help of his wife, and the girls life
was saved. She has been committed to
the Essex County Hospital for the
Insane.
1t is believed that the young woman
has been demented for some time. She
has threatened to commit suicide since
Friday of last week, when she lost her
place as maid in the family of DR.. w.
NJ. Barnes. of Springfield. The
physician said that her condition had
been noticeable for some time, and he
had advised the girl to take treatment,
but she refused to do SO.

But one summer day Miss Ellen came
home to be greeted by the melancholy
news that passing wagon had decapltat-

sought relief in tears, and then. learning
with horror that the cook had taken

to serve the family with fried chicken for

the vessels. and that they will therefore
take Il comparatively short time.
There is big reserve of naval guns
here already for installation and officers
and men have been already chosen from
the Siberian reserves to fill up the places
of those who We're killed or wounded in
the fight with Vice Admiral kamimura' s
squadron.
The reserves responded to the call eae-
erly despite the fact THAI most Of them
are married and that they have had a
terrible object lesson in the crowd OF
wounded already in the hospitals here.
The wounded, on the other hand. are not
viewing these preparations with equan-
unity. Th" first complaints they have ut
tered have been against having their
places filled.
The condition of the wounded generally
is good and only one has died since they
were brought ashore. Those whose eases
are the most severe are pleading not to
be removed from Vladivostok in the fear
that they will not get back to their ships.
