THE ROWLAND DRY GOODS CO.
HOUSEHOLD NOTES

A good cleanser for hardwood is to wash it with a clean flannel wet in turpentine and rub lightly afterward with boiled linseed oil.
 Bric-a-brac should be carefully dust ed before being washed in hot borax water or soap studs in which a little ammonia has been dissolved.
 If one has baked beans left and does not wish to use them warmed over, try making into salad or soup. They are excellent either way.
 Tiny greasy streaks on glassware after 1t is washed are due to the fact that the soap or washing powder used has not been thoroughly dissolved.
 The soft, velvet cushion, such as is used to keep a mans silk hat in con dition, is equally satisfactory Tor woman's hat, whether velvet or felt.
 Peaches and cream is tradlt1onal favorfte, but not many know that a dish fully as good Is ripe pears and cream. The pears should De very cold.
 When a valuable piece of music be- gins wearing out along the edges. first press the sheet with a warm iron and then bind the edges with passepart- out.
 DO not wash colored fabrics in the same water with white ones. This especially holds good if one happens to have table linen with colored bor- ders.
 Bric-a-brac containing mother-of-- pearl should never be cleaned with soap and water. Instead, it should be rubbed with a cloth dipped into whiting and water.
 Paint the inside woodwork of bed- steads with corrosive sublimate and turpentine five cents worth of the former to a pint of the latter. It will destroy all vermin.
 TO make egg gruel beat one egg in a bowl add salt, a little parsley, a teacup of boiling water. Cut into small pieces a slice of toasted bread and pour gruel over it.
 To run roads through the sash cur tains, put a thimble on the end of the rod, or the finger of an old glove. and the rod will slip through without tear ing the fabric.
 Little white spots on the nails are generally caused by the use of a hard instrument in pushing the cuticIe back from the nail. An orangewood stick should be used instead

completed, Miss Doro is now gathering
local atmosphere TO embellish the diff
ferent scenes. 1t is with view to CON
tinuing her study Of this subject that
Miss Doro and her company, under the
personal guidance of Gustave Frohman,
viii make the voyage to Honolulu at
