A TEA TABLE DREAM.

(By Cora Hartman) Pink and white, O dainty pitcher, Filled with memories richer Than your freight of cream AS I sit and dream. Dainty pitcher and dainty girl. Garlands of roses and gilded pearl, Blush rose cheeks and golden curl" He praised us both for he loved us
 well. He could see the cream in your ivory
 brim, But he could not see my love for him. In my hearts deep chalice, My Loved,
 My Lost His ship went down meath the South
 ern Cross. If he could only come to me again I never would cause him a moments
 pain. I'd be so loving, so humble and true, Dear Lordi how can I live the long
 years through
 ssWhy, Nell! Asleep. dear?" My kettles drowsy hum I hear. See biscuit brown and spicy cake Dimly through tears I wake And draw his dear head near Only a ''dream"-the- grief of years. Only a dream, the grief and fears. But true the coming of happy years. Little pitcher filled to your snowy
 rim Not too late, the luscious cheer in your
 golden brim Or to pour out the love in my heart
 for him."

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Outward applications of lemon juice cure stings and bites of insects.
 If a lemon is warmed before squeez-- ing, nearly double the quantity of juice will be obtained.
 Precipitation stains can be removed by rubbing with soap and laying the garment in the hot sun.
 Kerosene will soften boots and shoes that have been hardened by wa ter. and make them as pliable as new.
 White paint, which is enameled or vanished, requires careful treatment and should be washed with fine oat- meal, not soap.
 To banish ants. cut thin stripes of cucumber rind and put about where they abound; this will invariably drive them away.
 Lemon peel and orange peel. dried, make a good substitute for kindling. A handful thrown into a dying fire will revive it at once.
 Have you ever tried calf tongue? It is smaller than the usual tongue; cor respondingly delicate: also cheaper and boils more quickly.
 To clean decanters: Mix half gill of vinegar with a handful of salt. Put little in each decanter and shake well. Rinse in clear water.
 In making tomato soup with milk. always put the soda in the milk be- fore putting the tomatoes and milk together, and your soup will never curdle.
 stagnant water in kitchen boiler rainy weather, where there is poor filter plant in the city water supply.
 If when reading or sewing by lamp light a sheet of white paper is placed under the lamp it will be found that a far stronger light is shed all over the room.
 Always remove the cake of fat that settles on the top of cold soups; if al- lowed to remain the soup will turn sour more quickly than it otherwise
 A clever device for moving a stove is to take new broom, raising the stove from the base, place 1t upon the brushy part of the broom and draw it by the handle.
 A piece of sandpaper, kept for the in which something has been scorch- ed, is very helpful. It keeps them bright and smooth.
 A pinch of soda in the fruit jar after being washed will sweeten it. This. of course, is to be put in the out, leaving it sweet and free from odor.
 For leather of chairs that is rubbed or worn or looking shabby, the white of an egg is excellent Apply it with a soft rag, when the leather will not only be restored, but wear longer.
 For use in an ironing-holder a piece of leather cut from the top of an old shoe will protect the hand from the heat, also save callous spots from the grin if one uses the patent han dle irons.
 A teaspoonful of warm honey taken every 20 minutes has a surprising eff feet on catarrh. Honey should al- ways be kept handy, as it is inval- uabIe in cases Of illness caused by catching cold.
 Pear stains may be removed from any fabric by saturating with turpen- tine, then rubbing with soap before washing. Iodine, one of the worst of stains, may be removed in the same manner.
