Queer Idea of Chinese.

The following is a quite modern
Chinese conception of the foreigners
treatment of infectious cases: IF an
epidemic broke out two foreigners
took the sick away and put them in
little room, washed them with lime
water and then locked them up, SO
that no one could see them, on purt
pose that they might soon die and not
propagate the disease. Wives and
children might cry and weep, but the
foreigner would but drive them away
with sticks. for until dead no one
must see those faces again. Better
for all of us to Jump into the sea than
submit to this. South China Post.

Buttered AppIes.

Pare and core eight tart apples.
Put them in a baking dish and fill
the hollow of each with sugar and a
tiny, pinch of cinnamon or mace, if
liked. AS they cook haste them with
a tablespoonful of butter melted in a
cupful of hot water. Cover the apples.
Boil a cupful of sugar and half cup
full of water and blade of mace five
minutes. When the apples are tender
not broken-pour this over them
after they are removed from the dish.

orrdrv worr a+ nome would I

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and tineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
sr strength than other makes.

WASHING FINE LACE
UTMOST CARE NEEDED FOR
THEIR PRESERVATION.
Delicate Fabrics Easily Ruined by
Rough HandIine-Rice Water Ex-
ceilent to Use for Renovation
of Delicate Material.

The washing and doing up of Iaces
is very dainty work, So dainty, indeed
that it is useless leaving such things
to strong-minded and stronger-limbed
WdsherWomen, from whom such lid.
ding work gets either scant atten-
ZION or robust zeal which is equally
disastrous.
The fortunate possessor of very
nne laces cannot be too careful in
washing them. Even the gentlest rub
bling must be avoided if the lace IS
to be preserved.
1t goes without saying that no
starch must be employed If neces-
sary these laces may be stiffened by
the use of little white sugar moist
| ened In the last rinsing water. White
lace, II not too much soiled, may be
revived by breathing on it, shaking
and Tapping it.
Valenciennes and other soft laces
may be stiffened with thin boiled
starch, while duchess, Honiton and
laces of that description can be stiff
ened with gum water.
Valenciennes is said to be the most
profitable of the finer laces, and being
made with round, whole thread if
treated with ordinary care can hardly
be worn out
1t can be washed any number OF
times, and not being SO easily de-
stroyed as the point or applique laces,
which are more or less fragile, it has
the soft effect of lace without at
tracing too much examination.
Lace should always be soaked be
lore washing, more especially il it is
much soiled, in water in which q
teaspoonful of borax has been dissolv
ed. The water should be boiling, the
usual proportion being one pint of wa
ter to every teaspoonful of borax
Then make a lather with some gooC
soap and hot water
Take the lace from the water II
which it has been soaked, place it II
the soapy water and squeeze it ex
actly as if 1t were a sponge till it 1:

This will prevent the lace from be

the lace is white, a little blue in tn

A very little stiffening will proven

Carnegie Fund Participants.

The report of the Carnegie fund for
the advancement of teaching shows
that already $50 institutions have ap-
piled for a share of the proceeds, and
that Of these So have been placed on
the accepted list, having met the con-
ditions in regard to undenominational-
ism and academic standards. In the
accepted institutions As professors
have received more than $4,000 and
the widows of some professors have
been assisted. One-half the accepted
colleges are in New England, New
York and Pennsylvania, and, with one
exception, the entire list lies in the

Covering for Furniture.

If one has proper covers for the
furniture and pictures great deal of
trouble can be saved on sweeping
day.
Buy cheap print cloth.
Have three breadths in the over,
and have it three yards and half
long. 1t should be hemmed on the
sewing machine.
Six covers is the usual number,
though some households will not need
nearly that many.
Always remove these coverings
carefully, then take them outdoors to
be shaken.
They will last a long time, and pay
for themselves in a year, because
they save so much extra busting and
the moving of heavy articles.

JUDGING People.

We are ali inclined to judge OF 9TH
ers as we find them. Our estimate OF
a character always depends much on
the manner in which that character
AFFECTS our own interests and passions.
We find it difficult to think well OF
those by whom we are thwarted or
denressed: and we are ready to admit
every excuse for the vices OF those
who are useful or agreeable to u.s.
That is, we believe, one of those illu-
eions to which the whole human race
is subject, and which experience and
reflection can only partially remove
