DRYING THIN GLASSES.
A Dealer Tells Why the Maid Breaks
Them So Often.

Our maid certainly worked deStruC-
ton on those sherry glasses, those del
icate little glasses" said the customer
to the dealer. There were six. and
she broke three inside of three
months"
"Oh, you got off easy, judging from
the stsries that come to Gs." replied
the store man.

the customer. Il tried wiping few
Of these glasses myself the Othec night,
and the first thing l knew l wiped the
side right out of one. AS the maids
Say, Why. they break right in the
lowell"
NOW, if you would wait until they
We're nearly dry" remarked the dealer,
you'd never break any at all. Take
this cordial glass with the very thin
stem. You naturally seize it by the
foot and turn it while you wipe the
bowl with the other hand. While the
glass is wet the dish towel, gripped
between two fingers, holds the bowl
like a wise, and you just naturally
twist the stem in two. But IL you lie:
the glass get nearly dry the towel
slips. and the danger is over"
Doesn't that make streaked glass
esq
mo, not If the water and towels are
clean. OF course you ought TO have
towels that you use only for glass
ware. Towels that have been used on
dishes are likely to have grease on
them, and grease is the great enemy
Of brilliancy in glassware"
Then can soap be used in the wa
ter?"
"Oh, yes. We use pure white soap
with ours. The main point is to have
the water hot enough. That helps with
the drying. too, because when you take
glass out of very hot water and set
It aside to drain it will dry itself be

usually it has never touched grease,

cray describes as roaring at young

Conan Doyle had finished his course in

An Ace OF Machinery.

In the making of most Of our house
hold goods machinery has done away
with the craftsman. True il is that
some master mind plans the design in
the first pattern that becomes the IA
Their of thousands, but if these things
had been made by human hands we
should have had not one but a thou
sand masters of their trade instead of
one artist only and an army of work
men doing some monotonOus routine
job for their daily bread. The whole
system is premium on dizziness and
medioCrity. 1t may be argued that this
machinery more or less makes for
cheapneSs. and on that account a man
can become possessed of more goods
than he would have had without It.
but n mans life hardly consists in the
abundance of things that he hath, and
it is also quite on the cards that 4 few
good possessions arc worth n whole
host of bad. When We come to think
that in the making of almost every
thing we wear. almost everything in
the house upon which we step, sit or
lie. machinery has had hand to the
ousting of some craftsman. the enor-
nifty of our wickeduesS becomes clear

CHINESE TlDBlTS.
The Way Vegetables and Meats Are
Preserved by the Natives.

In China turnlpS, several varieties OF
ca bbage and seaweed are often prepar-
ed for winter by giving them coat OF
salt and drying in the sun. Negeta-
bic resem bling cabbage is sometimes
dried in the sun Without salt and put
away in shallow baskets until ready
for use They have j way also OF max
ing a kind Of saucrkraut very much as
Americans do The treatment Of GER
tain vegetables in this way IS com
mon practice. The best native hams
come from region known as the Kin
hlla district. il Chekiang province. The
hams when dressed and ready for cur
ing are carefully placed in watts. 4
Kind Of pickle is then prepared of salt
water and a sauce from the soy bean.
which is poured over the fresh hams,
After the hams have been in the pickle
a sufficient length of time they are TAX
en- out and hung up to dry and Occa-
sionaIly, but not often, smoked, when
they are ready for the market Some
times a little nitrate OF potash is also
added TO help preserve them, but this
addition is the exception and not the
rule. 1t is reported that in the south
hams are cured by means Of an alkaline
earth and common salt but SO far as
can be learned no earth Of any kind is
employed in the middle and northern
provinces. The famous picked eggs
of China are preserved with pickle
made Of common mud, salt saltpeter
and soy bean sauce, all mixed together
The eggs are coated with Il plaster Of
this mixture and laid away until ripe,
when they are ready for the table.
Prepared in this way they will keep
several months
