Fang, for the second time appointed

three secretaries and five other at

Washington and "a young students,
who will enter various schools and
colleges In this country.
At the Pacific mail dock, where
the Siberia made fast, shortly before
l o'clock, large number of Chi

hand with brass band to greet their
minister. From the dock the minis

Minister WI denied the report
that he was the bearer of an appeal
to Washington asking this country

Ing against the alleged aggrandize-
ment OF Japan in that Province, but |
admitted there was some local fric-

ween China and Japan and the ex-
ension of the Hsinmintin- Fukemen

between the two countries.

the glass. The softest of clean cloth without any nap about it should be used for the final ploishing.
 Usually, shot or some other sort of metal is used for removing sediment in decanters, vases, etc. Such material is likely to scratch the glass, and after numerous cleanings the scratches will show.
 To prevent this, use white potato peelings, leaving them in the articles over night, or for several hours, then wash out with tepid water. The short life of many pieces of glassware is due to the abrupt changes of temperature to which they are commonly subjected. A dish that has been used for serving ice cream or any other very sold sub. stances, or a tumbler which has held ice water if set near fire or plunged into hot water is almost sure to crack.
 Never remove a piece of glassI from a closed cabinet and put it in imme- diate contact with marble slab or other cold substance Before using tumblers for iced drinks place them in moderately cool water for a time and their safety will be insured

To Broil Steak.

To briol steak properly is one of the most important undertakings in cook. cry. Many cooks send it to table burned on the outside while the inter o'r is raw, while others cook it to a dry tastelessness.
 There are several rules to be ob- served if the steak is to be success. The fire should be clear and free from smoke, the gridfron should be scrupu- lously clean, well heated and greased before the meat is put on.
 If the fire is too hot the meat will be hardened and scorched; if not hot enough, the juice will escape and the steak will be "habby."
 The gridiron shiuld be held slopingly over the fire so that the fat may run of to the back of the grate. If it drops on the coal q blaze w;ll result which will blacken the meat and cause it to have a smoky flavor.
 If, however, by chance, blaze should happen during the time the steak is broiling, the gridiron must be caught and held away from the fire until the flame is gone. A little salt thrown on the fire will prevent this.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1908-10-04

tepid water and the purest castillo or other good soap should be used for cleansing such articles and small stiff brush should be used in order to get every particle of dust out of the cut ting.
 The piece should then be submerged in boxwood sawdust and allowed to re- main some little time, so that the saw dust will absorb the moisture and clear

Valuable Hints


 The hair brush should be kept scrup- ulously clean.
 Very hot water externally applied will stop dangerous bleeding. Cleanliness is essential to a good com. plexion and daily bath is not lux. ury buta necessity.
 For hives, take commo nwhite flour and powder the affected parts. This will relieve itching.
 A little healthy tan on the face is not really an affiction, but too much is unbecoming, particularly in the even ing.
 To improve the contour of the face, try filling the cheeks with air and let ting it explode with soft explosive sound. Do this fifteen or twenty times day.
