II You Have No Ice.

The July Woman's Home Compan-
ion contains a great variety of practi-
cal housekeeping suggestions. Here
is one for the housekeeper who gets
along without ice:
obtain a large, common fiower-pot
and seal the hole in the bottom with
plaster of Paris. Place in the pot the
battle containing milk, Or a covered
crock containing butter, and fill the
pot with water to as great a depth as
possible without the bottle or crock
floating. Cover the pot with a board
or plate and set out in the open air,
away from the direct sunlight, and
preferably where there is current of
air. The evaporation of the water
from the surface of the porous pot
will keep the contents several degrees
colder than the outside air, when
there is the slightest amount of air
stirring. The higher the wind, or the
drier the air, the greater will be the
cooling effect"

PHILLIPS BROOKS.

A Boston Gazette writer tells that
a lady was travelling from Provi-
dence to Boston with her weak-mind-
ed father. Before they arrived there
he became possessed Of a fancy that
he must get off the train while it was
still in motion, that some absolute
duty called him. His daughter en-
deavored to quiet him, but it was diff
fcult to do it, and she was just Civ
ing up in despair when she noticed a
very large man watching the proceed
ing intently over the top of his news
paper. AS soon as he caught her eye,
he arose and crossed quickly to her.

are in trouble. May help your" AS
soon as he spoke she felt perfect
trust in him. She explained the sit
uation to him. What is your faith
er's name?" he asked.
She told him, and with an encour-
aging smile he bent over the gentle
man who was sitting in front of her,
and said few words in his ear. With
a smile, the gentleman arose, crossed
the aisle and took the vacant seat,
and the next moment the large man
had turned over the seat, and, lean
ing toward the troubled old man, had
addressed him by name, shaken
hands cordially, and engaged him in
a conversation so interesting and so
cseverly arranged to keep his mind
occupied, that he forgot his need to
leave the train, and did not think OF
it again till they were in Boston.
Here the stranger put the lady and
her charge into a carriage; received
her assurance that she felt perfectly
safe, had cordially shaken her hand,
and was about to close the carriage
door when she remembered that she
had felt so safe in the keeping of this
noble-looking man that she had not
even asked his name. Hastily put
ting her hand against the door, she
said: Pardon me, but you have
rendered me such a service may not

The school was hushed and still,

something true and noble is being
done-so still that they might al

the moral triumph which subdued
himself as we'll as all the rest. And
when, from want of something else
to say, he gently cried, Master for

such as freckles, moth-spots, warts,
etc., should be removed by the appli-

daily manipulation of the finger-tips
helps to make them more slender

that are bitten off, spoil the love

Lemon juice or ind is one Of the

PRICELESS RELICS IN THE CAP

The Capitol at Washington, like
many another house. has it's attics,
and cobwebbed ones at that. On the
house side few days ago someone
made it his business to penetrate the
gloom and muteness of one Of these
recesses, and in digging around in
the ancient things to be found there
ran across some very valuable letters
which in the future will repose in
the Congressional Library. Among
these are letters from Washington,
Jefferson, Lafayette, Jay, Monroe,
and many other persons Of promi-
hence in the days of old.
Two Of them possess a peculiar
interest from the point of view OF
sentiment, one being written by Mar
tina Washington and the other By
Mary Todd Lincoln. The former is
written relative to the proposition to
remove Washington's body to q
crypt in the Capitol, and the latter
applies to the Government for pen

DO YOU DO THIS?

Sometime I have appreciated the
real vexation that some women ex-
hibited when some Of the family
came into the house with muddy
boots or shoes. A woman can spend
her life with broom, brush and wa
ter cleaning porches, linoleums, oil
clothes and walks, yet the unthinking
ones never seem to give thought to
the labor that it takes to do this. It
is rather discouraging to aim at hav-
ing a spotless house when other mem
bers are not assisting in a small way
to keep it clean. Boys and men are
very careless in this matter, and Wo-
men, too, but seldom the ones who
know what the work amounts to. A
dainty woman never thinks Of enter
ing another woman's house without
first removing the rubber shoes or
rubber sandals she may wear; but a
careless woman will be less consider
ate and go into a hall without remov-
ing them. There is room for i'm
provement on both sides. The wo-
man to be pitied is the one who wants
her home sweet and attractive and
she alone is the only one aiming for
such. When Encouragement finally
comes, the woman who has aimed
and failed settles down in her unat-
tractive horne and is one of the most
sadly disappointed creatures alive,
for It is only natural that woman
should love home. and she wants it as

William Lemley, the man who was
arrested a little over a month ago
at Butler on a charge of bootlegging,
found guilty, fined $100 and costs and
sent to the county Jail in default of
payment of the fine and costs, seems
to be in rather peculiar and undesir-
able position. He is incarcerated in
the county jail and there doesn's seem
to be any provision to get him out,
except that he pay the fine and costs.
AS he is unable to raise the 500 fine
and the costs which will probably
reach another $50 the prospects are
bright for the prisoner to remain in
the Richland county Jail for the bal
ance of his natural life-at least that
is the way it looks at this time.
Lemley has been locked up in the
county Jail for al days now for the
crime of bootlegging, having been
committed to Jail by Mayor Staun.
