HOUSEKEEPER CHEMICALS.
The Cheap Chemical Sal-Soda Forms
a Soap with Grease and the Latter
Then Readily Disposed Of.

Sal-soda is very cheap chemical, and
forms the basis of most of the washing
powders on the market; it forms a soap
with grease which is readily dissolved
and carried away. Borax is a compound
Of sodium with boric acid, and acts as a
mild alkali; it is the safest of all aka
lies and affects colored fabrics less than
docs ammonia. Some of the solvents for
grease are alcohol, chloroform, ether,
beEzine, naphtha, gasoline-these, too,
are all volatile and should be tightly
corfed and distinctly acknowledgements
and turpentine-the latter two the
cast volatiie-benzine, naphtha or gas
uline are sometimes sold for one an
other. They will not mix with water
and are very inflammable, and should
1e used with the greatest discretion
Kerosene is a valuable agent in the
household. The deodorized quality can
be furnished by some dealers. These
household chemicals should be kept in
,hcir own closet, away from all medicine
bottles, to avoid accidents, of which we
.eaj so often.
Oxalic acid should always be labeled
poison; the bleaching agent, chloride OF
lime, owes its beneficial effect to sub
stance Of an acid nature which is liber-
ated from it, and the clothes bleached
by this agent should be thoroughly
rinsed in diluted alkali to neutralize this
effect. 1t should be used in solution
only, and should be kept in bottles with
rubber shoppers. The alkalies which are
indispensable in the household are am
monia (that sold at the groceries is
often impure), which is very volatile,
potash, put up in small cans (caustic
I've, from wood ashes), and this is very
corrosive, and should be used with great
care.-Housekeeper.

Dear, we shall miss yea. we shall. and We
DO,
The lips we have kissed. and the wee dim
pies, too
The patter Of feet.
The words lisped SO sweet;
The parting was bitter, but yet we shall
meet,
And we shall be glad in the morning.
Yours is the Joy
And the peace over there,
The glee In your eyes
And the sun on your hair.
Long, long are the days since twas ours.
dear, to plan
For you and your future when you were
man,
And now you are gone
And we wait all alone,
And the paths seem to wait where your wee
feet have run,
But our hearts will be glad in the morn
ing.
Yours, dear, TO play
And wait for US there.
Your blue eyes a-shine
And the sun on your hair
And you won't grow big, but forever be wee
With the lisp in your accents, the Sllnt OF
rare glee
In Your eyes. dear. and you,
When death lets us through,
Will meet us and laugh the dear laugh
that we knew,
And we shall laugh loud IN the morning,
Yes dear, we shall
Laugh loud with you then,
When the gates open wide
And we meet you again.
We know you were met. dear, on passing
the door
BY those who had lived and loved babies
Of yere,
With arms opened wide
They stopped to your side,
And we know you'll come running to us
happy-eyed,
And we shall be glad ip the morning.
And so, dear, we smile
Through eyes dim with tears
Because you are waiting
For US down the years.

The tidal area Of Mission bay, says the
San Francisco Chronicle, is very extern

uosed to utilize this neglected source OF
tidal power through the agency OF hori-

purposes. There can be no question
about the feasibility Of the scheme, and
It's successful development is a simple
engineering operation.
There is probably enough power going
To waste during the ebb and flow of the
tides to generate enough electricity to
light the city Of San Diego, providing
that the turbine plant installed is
eou,pped with a storage battery station
in which the electricity generated by the
dvnamos driven by the turbines can be
stored for use when needed.
This San Diego scheme illustrates the
growing disposition which prevails
everywhere throughout the state to util-
lie sources of power which have been
hitherto neglected, whose value,
through the progress made in the gen.
Grafton and application Of electric en-

proofs that the famous explorer VIII

woman of the Nez Perez country while
making his way across the continent
to the Pacific 100 years ago, says a

brought to Congressman Dixon by
Mary Clark, granddaughter of William

of General Miles in the Bear Paw
mountains on Snake creek in the fall
of 1877.
1t was between May and September
in 1905 that Captain Clark gained his
Indian sweetheart The Nez Perez Ia
dams treated the exploring party very
kindly and a stop of some time was
made among them, while the party
was preparing to descend the great
divide.
The Indian bride accompanied the
| explorer to the coast, learning to speak
English, and returned with him to her
own country, where her son was born.

maiden remained with her people and
