Care of Furniture.

There are many little hints, the fol- lowing of which will prolong the life of some valued piece of furniture or article of bric-a-braG far beyond It's natural period of existence.
 How many persons. for instance, think that when they place a good chair or table near an open fireplace, register, or any very warm spot, the heat will cause the wood and glue to dry, thus bringing about dry rot where the pieces arer joined together? How many women do not lean careessly against the back of some polished wood chair, while oblivious of the fact that the sharp belt buckles they are wearing are making great scratches that can never be eradlcated?
 Then, too. there are the little sug- gestlons on the care of ornaments, so seldom either known or carried out For instance, probably very few per sens, indeed, clean glass lamp globes, window panes, etc., properly Especial ly for the former the best thing Is to place pulverized pumice stone between the layers of a folded piece of soft muslin and stitch around the edges to prevent the powder from splling, Wipe the glass with this dry cloth, and 1t will become clean and sparkle almost instantly. Enough powder will remain on the cloth to be used many times without renewing.
 Another food Idea is to keep a wet sponge in the cabinet with ivory curi- os or carvings. It will provide moisture that prevents cracking from dry heat. Of course, the sponge must be remoist- ened occasionally.

CURIOUS FACTS
 ABOUT NUMBERS

Some very curious facts have been discovered about numbers, which may to professor of mathematics might seem simple enough, but to the aver age person certainly appear remark able.
 Nine is perhaps one of the most mys- terious numbers. If we multiply nine by any number under 20 except II, the sum of the digits in the products will always be nine. Thus:
 9X2 equals IS and plus 1 equals g.
 9x3 equals 27 and plus equals g.
 9x4 equals 36 and plus equals g and so on.
 Another queer number is 37. If 37 be multiplied by or any number of threes up to 27, the three diglts in each product will be alike. For instance:
 9x37 equals III.
 6xS7 equals 222.
 9x37 equals 33S.
 12xS7 equals IA.
 15xS7 equals 555, and so on up to 37.
 Any one who choses to try some of these mathematical experiments, no doubt, will find out other interesting ones for himself.

ABOUT MARKING
 HANDKERCHIEFS

Marking handkerchiefs with the sim pie initial is extremely confusing, es- pecially when the washing is sent to a launrdess outside of the house. A good plan to avoid this Is to mark with both or all three initials, or better still with the entire name. This, however, Is unpleasantly conspicuous.
 A better way is to secure a small fn- delihle stamp of the name, and to stamp the center of each handker- chief, so that the marking is never in sight except when it is needed.
 Another plan, adopted in a family of three daughters, is to use a system of eyelets in one corner-one eyelet for the eldest daughter, two for the sec ond, three for the third. The plan works like a charm, for the family ini- tial oh the parents handkerchiefs are of course, easily recognizable from the difference between the size of mems and womens handkerchiefs.
 Finally one girl who boards alone marks each of her handkerchiefs with large and plain x, confident that no one else will claim that initial.

Short, quaint little coats of silk, lightweight cloth, crepe linen or what you will are worn in innumerable forms. One of the simplest of these lit- tie coats is a loose, short kimono mod el, reaching only a little below the waist line and usually made with kinono sleeves slit up the outside to show the fluffy frock sleeve beneath. Embroidery of one kind or another is, as a rule, layished upon such a coat, soutaehe figuring prominently here as elsewhere in fashions realm.
 Certain costumes exciting enthusias- tic admiration and comment in Paris are of superb laces made with the loose, clinging redingotes with long, graceful skirts of the same lace.

 You are wise not to use thing you don't know about, and this remedy is one which has been used with good re- suits. without harming the skin.
