FATHER NUeENT OFFERED CON
aUL SHIP At JERUSALEM.

S3sss President Wilson has rendered thu
4 United States consulship at Jerusa
4 lem to Rev. Father ]. F.. Nugent q
Des Moines. This appointment while
exceedingly exceptional could not be
improved upon. Father Nugent has
long occupied . front rank among am ans

the country; and better still he us
4 u broad minded lover Of humanity
About So ysars ago Father Nugent
came to Manchester and took charge
of the Catholic parish in this city
4 and 1T Delhi. He was a young and
practically unknown priest at that
time, but before he left Manchester
{ he was known all over the country.
On the thirtieth day Of May, 1879,
he stood up In Gods Acre here in
Manchester, with a few notes in his
hand, and delivered a Decoration Day
address that was a masterpiece. He
could hardly believe that his speech
was exceptionally meritorious, and
at was with many misgivings and
much reluctance that he assisted in
preparing q copy for the printer. q y
( large extra edition Of this paper con
tanning the speech was run and every
copy sold. Requests for copies con-
tanning the speech came from many
different states and extended over
period Of several years.
During the more than "a years
which have passed since the delivery
Of that Decoration Day address Faith
er Nugent has been a lecturer as
well as q priest, and has also taken
IN active interest in all political
questions 4 affecting the laboring
masses Of the country,
The Presidents tempting offer may
not be sufficient to induce Father
Nugent to leave his chosen field of
labor, but those who know his ex-
ceptional qualifications for the place
are hoping that he will accept. He
Is qualified to do as much to revive
Christianity in the Holy Land as any
man in Christendom-

Ever since the discovery that rner-
colized wax would absorb and remove
a sofled complexion its use by ladies'
as substitute for toilet creams has
grown rapidly. A perfect complexion
can be maintained Indefinitely IL this
remarkable substance Is used It's

servative action is quickly apparent
and ladies who have been paying as
high as a guinea a Jar for special
cream from beauty specialists soon
recognize. that nercollzed wax out
ranks them all 1t has become so
popular that it can be obtained at all
chemist shops in the British Isles.
American druggists also have great
demand for it in original one-ounce
packages. The favorite way of using
is to apply it, like cold cream, before
retiring. washing it off in the morning.
The saxolite lotion for wrinkles and
the facial contour has also become ex-
tremely popular. One ounce powdered
saxolite is dissolved in one-half pint
witch hazel. Bathing the face in this
has splendid effect In erasing wrin-
kles and improving contour.

HOME HINTS

When making custards use the
yolks of the eggs only. The whites
should be saved. They add nothing
to the flavor of the custard, and will
be found most useful for clearing
soups.
To renovate black kid gloves and
slippers, mix together in equal guam
titles the white of an egg, milk or
cream, and black ink. Place the
gloves on the hand and rub lightly
with a piece of soft flannel. )
To keep meat fresh wash with
weak vinegar and water and spread
over with small pieces of raw onion.
This will keep meat fresh in the hot
test weather. Before cooking remove
the onion and wash in clear cold
water.
When putting away furs and WOOL
en- garments dip old raps in paraffin,
place them between layers of news
papers, and put the newspapers in
the boxes or drawers in which the
wooden things are stored. This will
keep away moths.
Never starch linen that is to be
stored for a long time; it is apt to

u.
from starch, dry, and fold away, if
possible in blue paper. The blue
paper keeps them from turning yell
low.
To ease a tight shoe wiring out a
cloth in very. hot water and place it
over the spot where the shoe pinches.
Repeat this as soon as the cloth be-
comes cold, and after two or three
applications, the leather will have be-
come stretched to the foot through
the moist heat from the damp cloth.
Combs should not be washed, for
the water is apt to split the teeth.
An old and fairly stiff nailbrush will
be found very useful for cleaning
them. Work the bristles well in and
out between the teeth until all the
dirt and fluff are removed, and then
wipe the comb carefully on a damp
cloth.
The labor of shoe-cIeaning may be
greatly reduced by the aid of little
glycerine. First brush the shoes free
of dust, and then apply a small GUAM
tity of glycerine with rag; let them
stand for ten minutes, then polish
with brush: Shoes treated this way
keep their polish several days, and no
backing is required. -
To clean furred iron kettle fill
it with water, add a large tablespoon
of sal ammoniac, and boil it for some
minutes. Then empty the kettle and
stand it over the fire till it is red
hot, when the fur will peel off. After
this fill the kettle with soda and water
and boil it up to cleanse it, then
empty and rinse in pure water, when
it will be ready for use.
