CARE OF RARE CHINA.
Methods Will Add Life to Treasures
of Housewife.

The washing of valuable china needs
to be carried out very cautiously and
carefully. A big wooden bowl, filled
with warm, not boiling, soapsuds, to
which few drops of household am
monia have been added, should be pre-
pared and each piece Of china washed
separately In this, using a square OF
old flannel for plain dishes, ETC., and
a soft brush "a painters brush is best)
for elaborately ornamented articles.
Rinse in another wooden bowl OF
clean warm water and dry with linen
cloths. Bronze ornaments may be
washed in the sane way, but should
be finally polished with chamols
leather. Some people consider a rub
with rag on which there is the least
suspicion of paraf1in gives bronze
nice appearance, but we do not think
it necessary. Glass should be washed
in warm water that has little ammonia
In it, but no soap, and then rinsed In
quite cold water. Cut glass should
be washed with a brush, or, If elab-
orately cut and very dirty, 1t is rath-
er a good plan not to wash it at all,
but brush a paste of whiting and
water we'll into it, allowing it to dry
on thoroughly, then removing it with
a clean brush, and finally polishing
with an old silk handkerchief.

uTTL1 THINGS AND BIO.
otnsrsnsiates Between the Essential
and the Non-Essential.

4 S 81 Tfz . Z
Little things are often of great i'm
potance. but when they are so they
are not little. The pinion of watch
wheel, for example, in one sense is
little, in another sense 1t is not so at
all; for when 1t is not perfectly ad-
justed. the watch is worthless for time
keeping. 1t is not size that makes q
thing little or great, but its relation to
the end for which q number of things
are combined. II thing Is essential
it 10 important. Because so many of
the people who are always preaching
the Importance of little things fail to
discriminate between the little and the
non-essential, they often make
wretched mess of the management Of
their own and other peoples affairs.
theoretically, If every factor that con-
tributes to result is perfect, the re-
suit will be perfect; but practically,
for want of time, strength and oppor-
tunity, the efficient man is compelled
to neglect some things for the sake Of
others; and, in order to do this and
yet secure the main end, he has to
discriminate between the essential and
the non-essential. The one who is
thoroughly imbued with the false doc
trine of the Importance of little things,
spends his strength without discrim-
iration, and usually succeeds in miss
Ing the main chance.-The Watchman.

KING OF sAFE-BREAkERs.
Marvellous Delicaey Of Hearing Pos
sessed by Miner James.

"Milner James was the most artistic
safe-breaker in the business said
Lecocq the detective. "He is dead
now. He opened in his time over 700
safes without tools or gunpowder
solely by working out the combination
with his delicate and patient fingers.
1t took me a year. he once said,
to learn the trick of picking combina-
tions. studied all the locks there
we're and I hsd three safes of different
makes to practice on. The ear is the
most important factor in my method
and it must be held tight against the
safe door on line with the tumblers.
When the knob of the lock is turned
slowly and one of the tumblers reach
es the notch corresponding to the first
number of the combination the tum.
bier will fall with little click. Care
must be taken not to displace this
,tumbler. You keep on trying the knob
back and forth gently till each of the
tumblers drops. Then the door opens.
Hardly one man in a thousand has an
ear delicate enough for this work and
to be success at it you've got to give
up tobacco and alcohol"

and well fitted. It is very decorative
in its color, design and in its execu'
tion, and it is practical"
If you were to press her closely for
the colors and the materials she would
reply:
"The most fashionable dust coats
are made of waterproof stuff. both in
plain and in check design. They are
of cheviot cloth and novelty goods and
they are made almost long enough to
cover up the entire gown.
"Then come the coats of pongee,
which can be lined and made suitable

OrderIiness in the Child,

All children should be given some
work to do, some trivial duty to per.
form regularly, and they should be
taught to do it willingly and without
whimpering. Train your children to
wait upon themselves and to keep
their toys and playthings tidy and in
their proper places.
It is a good plan to teach him to
play with one toy at time, and when
that is tired Of to replace it before
q fresh one Is taken. Then, instead
of litter of things to be tidied and
put away at bedtime, or when the lit
tie one has tired Of playing, there is
simply one toy that can be quickly
cleared away. ~
When a child returns from a walk
teach him to put his outdoor garments
neatly away in the place allotted to
them. This early training will be Of
great use to him as he grows older
and help to form and strengthen his
character.o
