 Constantinople. July 25.--Ths mos mertous act of the Sultan of Turkey In proclaining yesterday the restoFas ton Of the constitution of 1878 has left the population of Constantinopie un- moved. The aspect of the city Is today perfectly normal and there have been no manifestations of satisfaction of any kind.
 The stoild fatalism of the Moslems who for centuries past have been Ae- customed to a regime Of personal rule and who are not used to political free dom. Is thought partly to explain the apathy more apparent, Furthermore past experience and the fact that the Sultan conceded the establishment of the constitution under extreme pres- sure inelines the Turks to the belief that the concession is intended merely to surmount the present troubles ana that the earliest opportunity would be taken to suspend the charter of liber- ty.

PROPER CARE OF THE SINK.
Precautions That Are Absolutely Nee.
 essary to Health.

All wood should be removed from a sink, according to Good Housekeep- ing, and replaced with a porcelain sink, back and sides; that being too expensive, then use slate, zinc or cop per The material should be absolute ly impervious to moisture and with out paint, which only wears off and leaves an untidy surface. Modern plumbers use iron instead of lead pipes almost entirely, and yet, by care, the old lead ones may continue to serve. Frequent flushing of the sink is an absolute necessity for per feet freedom from danger. It should be done with very hot water, but fol lowed by little cold water, lest the heat cause a vacuum and draw the water off the trap, leaving it open for gases to escape through the outlet of the sink. The treatment should be applied to every fixture in a house after the cleansing process.

How to Do Library Divan.

A couch or divan in library is al ways desirable, and if a cover in soft brown velour is used, with pillows of bright old orange, deep gold and the varying shades of brown piled on in profusion, it will be an artistic addi- tion to the room.
 The pillows, many of which should be put on the couch, may be made of inexpensive pieces of denim, canvas and burlap, any one of which comes in tones of yellow and brown that will be effective. Just for contrast one or two handsome cushions should be used in the pile. A striking one of golden silk, with deep brown ruff fle, or finished with a cord and tassel, would be attractive as would be also a lemon colored silk pillow, with a touch of old orange at the corners

Laces That Will! Not Wash.

Laces that are embroidered with silk and colors, tinsel or gold and sill yer should be spread out smoothly on clean piece of white cloth and cleaned carefully with a soft brush dipped in spirits of wine.
 If silk lace is much discolored it should be soaked in hot milk for two or three hours before washing.
 HonitCn lace should not be ironed. Put it under a weight on clean white paper after being washed. Blotting paper will give the best results.

Oyster Salad.

For oyster salad boil one quart of oysters Tn their own liquor, skim well, and drain. Add three table spoonfuls of vinegar, one of oil, one of lemon juice, and season to taste. Put in the refrigerator for two hours. Use the tenderest part of a head of eel cry, cut into small pieces, of which there should be about a pint. Have your celery very cold and crisp, and with it mix the oysters and quarter of a cupful of mayonnaise, garnish with celery tips and slices of lemon.

Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup the cough syrup that tastes nearly as good as maple sugar and which children like so well to take. Unlike nearly all other cough remedies, it does not COnstipate, but on the other hand it acts promptly yet gent " on the bowels, through which the cold is forced out of the sys- tenn, and at the same time it allays inflammation. Always use Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup.

The Oregon state board of agr

lHe OreSOn SJdJe DOarQ or dSr1' Eulture has ordered nurserymen to dip trees in lime sulphur mixture instead of the customary Immigration. Presi. dent w. K. Newell of the board says that the standard mixture will be used, that is 15 pounds of lime and 15 pounds of sulphur to 50 gallons of wa ter. In addition to this method of treatment to destroy the scale and prevent the spread of the pest, the state inspectors have the right to seize and destroy fruit found on the market which has the scale on it. It would seem that if ever the scale pest is to be checked and removed it must be by the general adoption of such drastic measures. In NeS Zealand it is said the laws relatin. to infected fruit are quite as stringen as those of Oregon, and appear tt have worked satisfactorily for years British Columbia has similar laws re garding the confiscation of insect-in fested fruit.
