When Pullmans Were New.

The real birth of the Pullman car dates from the closing days of the war between the states. In the Illinois Journal Springfield of May 30. 1865, is to be found the following:
 eve are reminded of prophecy which we heard some three years since that the time was not far distant when a radical change would be intro duced in the manner of constructing railroad cars: the public would trave' upon them with as much ease as though sitting in their parlors and sleep and eat on board of them with more ease and comfort than 1t would be possible to do on first class steam CT. We believed the words, but did not think they were so near full Hllment till Friday last, when we were invited to the Chicago and Alton de- pot in this city to examine an i'm proved sleeping car manufactured after a design by George M.

Faces Over the Doors.

Those who visit POmpeii for the first time are struck by one significant fea- ture of those little houses whose own CTS have been dead for 2,OOO years. That is the faces which are often cary ed over the door or in the atrium and intended to convey welcome or de- tiance to the entering guest. The New House, as it is called. because 1t is the last rescued from the tomb of ashes has before 1t two marble heads on pill lars rising from beds of roses. Their faces are turned to greet the stranger with gay, friendly smiles. No one could enter house which gave him so cor dial Il welcome without happier throb of the heart. In the entrances of some of the other houses are set angry. frowning heads of demons.

Their More Liberal Use would DO .
 Help In Home Economy.
 Among the fOodstuffs that American hOusekeepers have scarcely utilized are turnip tops, radish tops, mustard plants. sOrrel and chick peas among the vege- tables and the cheese product that can be extracted from whey.
 The greens mentioned may all be cooked like spinach or they may be made into delicious cream soups, as they have been for centuries by Euro pean housewives. Enough sorrel grows in the average vacant lot in every city to make many purees or cream soups.
 Chick peas are as nutritious as beans and when served In broth are just as tasty. They also can be made into a puree.
 Radish tops and mustard leaves make . cheap and appetizing salad.
 Professor Mary F. Rausch in a lec- ture at the University of Washington gave some hints about home economies. one of which was that foods in shallow pans cook more rapidly than in deep pans, thus saving gas. Another was that not a scrap of fat of any sort need be thrown away, but all should go into a double boiler and be tried out for use in frying or us shortening for pastry New York World.
