WHEN WASHING ORNAMENTS.
Proper Care That Should Be Given to
Valuable China.

The washing of valuable china needs
to be carried out very cautiously and
carefully. A big wooden bowl, filled
with warm, not boiling, scapsuds, to
which few drops of household am
monia have been added, should be
prepared, and each piece of china
washed separately in this, using a
square of old flannel for plain plates,
ETC., and soft brush "a painters
brush is best) for deliberately orna-
mented ARTICLES. Rinse in another
wooden bowl of clean warm water.
and dry with linen cloths. Bronze or
naments may be washed in the Same
way, but should be finally polished
with chamois leather. Some people
consider rub with rag on which
there is the least suspicion of paraffin

we do not think it necessary. Glass

Deadly New Rifle.

Bullets from the new 30-caliber
rifles of the United States army whirl
with great rapidity. The rifing gives
one revolution of the bullet about it's
axis in ten inches. At the muzzle the
velocity of the bullet is 1900 feet a
second, which means 2,76O turns =
second, assuming that the bullet does
not strip in the rifiing. The circum-
ference of the bullet is .942 of an
inch, which gives peripheral velocity
of 1900 inches each second. or $4,000
feet a minute.

All Chemically Pure.

The mistaken idea of few years
ago, about Alum in Baking Powders
being injurious, no longer prevails, or
scarcely exists. 1t is a we'll estab-
lished fact by chemical analysis that
Cream of Tartar being less volatile
than Alum, when exposed to heat, is
not entirely vaporized as is the case
with Alum, but leaves residue in the
bread, which is injurious. Alum, on
the contrary, is entirely evaporated
while performing its function during
process of baking, leaving no atom of
injurious residuous substance. The
words Chemically Pure" enormously
used to designate Cream of Tartar
from Alum baking powder is a mis-.
homer. Baking Powder made of pure
Alum is as chemically pure as made
from pure cream of tartar. These
words mean nothing more nor less
than pure chemicals, and in no way
can they imply that one baking pow.
der is Alum and another Cream of
Tartar. Alum has been declared to be
wholesome; an established fact. Ev.
cry large water system in the cities
along the Missouri river use Alum in
large quantities to purify the water
before pumping it into their water
mains for consumption. Cream of Tar
tar baking powder is perhaps good
enough for any one; Alum baking
powder is better, and very much
cheaper.

When the cream sours, there is
way of disposing of it better than in
and which is far less trouble. Put
in a cream jar, filling it only about
one-third full, and shake it until it
comes to butter, an operation which
takes some ten minutes of steady
work, and which results in delicious
fresh butter for supper.

The blackened masses of precious metal are now stored in the office of Thornwell Mullally, assistant to the President, at Oak and Broderick Streets, and afford an object of much curiosity to visitors. Just what will be done with the melted coin is a problem that is worrying the officers and directors of the company. Null lally is hopeful that the Treasury De- partment can be induced to make some ruling that will enable the com pany to recover something like the coin value of the money. Otherwise should the company succeed in recov- ering only the the bullion value, it will suffer loss of many thousands of dollars.
 The company's loss through the melting of silver coin greatly exceeds any similar loss by any other institu- tion in the city.

All the gold coin in the treasurer's' office, contained in separate safe, escaped unharmed, but the silver is unrecognizable.
 It consists of small truckload of blackened masses of metal of irregu- lar shapes. Various metals are fused in the melted masses of coin, so that the company will propably be put to the expense of having them melted and refined. Treasurer Starr says that silver, nickel copper and iron in unknown quantities are present in the big hunks of metal, the copper com ing from the melted cent pieces and the iron from the boxes in which the rolls of coin were paoked,-San Fran cisco Chronicle,
