How To Put on Your Gloves.

Every woman should have among her
toilet table fittings a good glove stretcher
and a little rice powder to use when put
ting on gloves in case the glove has not
been fitted at the store. After busting the
inside of the glove carefully with rice pow
der the tidy girl draws on the fingers, leav-
ing the thumb until they are all firmly in
place, making sure that each finger is put
on absolutely straight, says the Chicago
Journal If the glove is a trife small and
works on very hard it is well to remove it
after it is half way on and start afresh. If
it fits tightly about the wrist she fastens
the last button and trusts to the gradual
stretching of the kid over the wrist. The tidy
girl removes her gloves with infinite care.
She starts by loosening the fingers just
trife at the tips, then she turns the wrist
Down and draws the glove wrong side out
carefully, not jerkily. If the finger tips
have been properly loosened the glove viii
not turn all the way wrong side out,

Converted Hanna.
From chicago.Reeord Henld.

From Chicago-Reeo Herald.
Edwin Cowles, long editor of the Cleve-
land Leader, numbered among his accom-
plishments that of pocket picking OF
course he picked pockets as an amateur
only, but it is doubtful whether there ever
was a professional who could play the light
fingered game more skillfully than the able
editor did occasionally for fun.
Ii was during the administration of a
mayor who had been elected as a protege
of NJ. A. Hanna, who was then starting
in Cleveland upon the political career
which gave him national prominence, that
the Leader began a crusade against vice.
Articles we're published daily in which it
was asserted that the city was full of
thieves, gamblers and other crooks, and
the mayor was taken severely to task for
not having them driven away. Hanna,
being the power behind the municipal
throne, came in for eensure in an indirect
way, and, meeting Cowles in the street one
day, he expostulated with him concerning
the Leader style of warfare.
Look here, Cowles, he said, what $
the use of all this racket? You re max
Ing a mountain out of a molehill. There
are no more crooks in town than there have
been right along, and it would be foolish
to expect any mayor to drive all the law
breakers out. no matter how hard he tried
or how guod his intentions might be- =
Cowles insisted that his paper was right,
and he expressed the belief that there were
then more pickpoekets in Cleveland than
had ever before infested that city.
ickpocketsr' snorted Hanna Il
don believe there's pickpocket in the
tewn And anyway, have no sympathy
for anybody whose pockets are picked. No
one but jay could ever be robbed in that
way
You don know, said Cowles, chow
skilltul some Of these light fingered fellows
become Il would be possible for one of
them to 90 though your pockets while
talking to you as am now,
Hanna laughed derisiyely and said any
pick kpocket chat ever got a hand in his
clothes without being caught at it was vel
come to anything he could extract.
As they were parting Cowles turned to
ask what time it was, aud Hanna felt for
his watch
IL was gone.
That's strange, he said Il guess
aust have forgotten when dressed this
morning to put it in my pocket. y
Speaking Of forgetting ihings," Cowles
answered, Il forgot my wallet when left
home. Could you lend me sl0Y'
Hanna fel. for his money, hut found
none He put his hands into one empty
pocket after another aud was beginning to
look sheepish when Cowles handed him
back his watch, ais money, his keys and a
bundle Of letters.
Very well, Cowles, said the future
senator; "I'll see what can be done about
driving the pickpoekets away

How Vinegar Can Be Made Useful

Some new uses for vinegar are thus de-
scribed in The Housekeeper: If table
spoonful of vinegar is put into the lard in
which doughuuts are fried it viii prevent
them from absorbing too much Of the fat
One or two teaspoonfuls of vinegar put into
a kettle containing boiling beef or chicken
will hasten it in becoming tender A little
vinegar put into steve blacking will make
it stick better and prevent dust from fy-
ing while polishing, 4 little vinegar put
into the water when rinsing the hands does
much toward curing and preventing chapp-
ed hands. Vinegar put into a bottle of
old or dried glae will moisten and make it
like new again. Vinegar boiled on the
stove while cooking onions or cabbage viii
prevent the odor from filling the house.
Vinegar and salt mixed will brighten and
clean brass or copper kettles, ornaments, gas
fixtures and the like. After its application
the articles should be rinsed and polished
with clean, dry cloth. A good furniture
polish is a mixture of one part of vinegar
to two parts Of sweet oil, used sparingly.
The furniture should be polished after its
use By clean cloth. Vinegar and water
is good for bruises and sprains.

Bells as Barometers.
From London Spectator.


Church bells can serve another purpose
besides ringing you to worship They
make good substitute for barometer.
As the atmosphere is the sole conductor Of
sound from the bell to the ear, it is obvious
that the intensity and quality Of the sound
as perceived by the ear will depend on the
state of the medium through which it
comes. For instance, if bells sound very
distinctly of an evening, this points to the
probability of wet day following, since
air heavily charged with moisture conducts
sound better than dry air. So, too, as
dense air conducts better than light air,
bells sound more clearly when the barome
ter is high than when it is low, other
things being equal, and so, TOO, with hot
and cold air. These principles are familiar
to all country folk living within the sound
of church bells. About five miles from
Lebekke, in Belgium, there are some small
bells which are called ''water bells. y
When they are heard distinctly in the town
rain is sure TO follow.

Do not keep the alabaster box Of your
love and tenderness sealed up until your
friends are dead. Fill their lives with
sweetness. Speak approving, cheering
words while their ears can hear them, and
while their hearts can be thrilled and made
happier by them. The kind things you
mean to say when they are gone, say be-
fore they 20. The flowers you mean to
send for their collins, send to brighten and
sweeten their homes before they leave
them. If my friends have any alabaster
boxes laid away full of the fragrant per-
fumes of sympathy and affection, which
they intend to break over my dead body,
| would rather they bring them out in my
wearied and troubled hours, and open them,
that may be refreshed and cheered by
them while | need them. would rather
have a plain coffin without flower, fu-
neral without eulogy, than life without
the sweetness of love and sympathy. Let
us learn to anoint our friends beforehand
for their burial Post mortem kindness
does not cheer the burdened heart and
soul Flowers on the coffin cast no frag-
rance backward over the weary way.

Charity's Way.

Every good act is charity Your smil-
ing in your brothers face is charity; an
exhortation of your fellow man to virtuous
deeds is equal to aims giving your putting
a wanderer in the right road is charity;
your removing stones and thorns and other
distractions from the road is charity; your
giving water to the thirsty is charity. A
mans true wealth hereafter is the good he
does in this world to his fellow man. When
he dies his friends will say, "What prop
erty has he left behind him?' But the
angels will ask: "What good deeds has
he sent before him?''

Sneeze Right Out.

''Never suppress sneeze, said the
trained nurse to the young woman who
had just performed the polite act. "To
stiAe a sneeze is great strain on all the
nerves and blood vessels of the head, as it
throws all the action to the back of the
head instead of letting it out of the mouth
safely and naturally. The unusual and
hard strain on a little blood vessel that may
be weak is likely to burst it and cause in
slant death. A loud sneeze does not sound
very nice, but it is safe thing to do every
time,

Pale, wilhered hands that more than four score

Dropped balm of love in many an aching heart:
Now s'irless folded. like wan rose leaves pressed
Above the snow and silence other breast;
Ia mute appeal they told of labors done
And well earned rest that came at set Of sun.
From the worn brow he lines Of care had swept

Had smOothtd the cobweb wrinkles quite away
And given back the peace Of chiIihood's day.
