of the Venetian laces come from Bras

may permit light-colored fabrics to

“headache powders.”
Tho habit of taking “headache
powders” is increasing to an alarming
extent among a great number of wo¬
men throughout the country These
powders, as their name indicates, are
claimed by the manufacturers to be a
positive and speedy cure for any form
of headache. Iu many cases their chief
ingredient is morphine, opium, co¬
caine or some other equally injurious
drug having a tendency to deaden
pam The habit of taking them is
easily formed, but almost impossible
to shake off Women usually com¬
mence taking them to relieve a raging
headache and, finding it successful,
soon resort to the powder to alleviate
any little p.tin or ache they maybe
subjected to, and finally, like the mor
phino or opium fiend, get into the
habit of taking them regularly, imag¬
ining that they are in pain if they hap¬
pen to miss their regular dose—Chi¬
cago Herald.
SOME NEW COIFFURES.
Tho hairdresser plays a prominent
part these days in the appearance of a
woman, for an unbecoming “head
dress,” that is, one unsuited to its
wearer’s style, will make a pretty
woman look something like one of
Macbeth’s witches. It is not neces¬
sary to make an elaborate coiffure,
but it is quite necessary, indeed, that
the contour of the head and the style
of the face be consulted.
Fbr instance, the round, dimpled
face demands a high coitl'ure, with
only a sugge tion of bang over the
forehead, a little fluff of curls on the
temple and a moderately well built up
bang between the knot and the fore¬
head on top of the head.
The thin face needs softening, and
a much crimpled head piece can be
worn with a full fluffy bang pretty
well around the face. If the neck is
long anil thin, the back of the head
should be exceedingly well shaped if a
high knot is worn.
Women have tried with varying suc
cess some of the 1830 styles of head
(iroby, tuo general effect of which, is
more often sad than successful No
kind of adaptation of the 1830 coiffure
can be made artistic. It was not pretty 1 *'
then, ., it .. . hideous , . , now.—New „ York

shows the desire they had for the pos
session of the suffrage. Of the large
number registered 90,200 voted.
If the entire number of voters is re
garded, it will be found that in New
Zealand the mile electors constitute
sixty-four per cent, and the female
only thirty-six per cent; but at the
elections the women voted so much
generally than the men that, out of
every hundred votes polled, forty-one
were those of women. By a singular
law of New Zealaud electors who do
not exercise t ir right to vote are
struck off the rolls At the late elec
tion 72,376 electors were thus penal¬
ized; of thes >3,205 were men, aud
only 19,171 were women The voters
disqaalifie I for not voting can be re
instated on the list by making a new
claim Fue influence of the female
vote iu '*etv Zealand is greatly affected
by the fact t;iit women arc there is a
considerable minority. According to
the last census there were 332,877
males and 293,781 females, and even
in the native or Maori population, out
of 41,000, the males were upward of
3000 in excess of the females, so that
the women could never constitute a
majority over the males at the polling
booths.
SUE RUNS A CAN AT, BOAT.
Woman is gaining in the industrial
pursuits and has invaded nearly every
branch of industry in the cities, but it
remaine(l for Miss Lizzie C. Campbell
to demonstrate the ability of woman
co P, e w,th the var,ons Rn(l vanei
difficulties of oauftl navigation,
Her fathcr * Jame « c * Campbell, was
for man v Tear ft canal ca P taiu aml ra «
- -
h,s hoata from New York to Buffalo
with some degree ofproSt. When he
<liert .. - thlve .. vears a ?° . “ e was the °^ ner
*
of two boats—the Silver Gloss aud
the James Campbell—both of about
309 tons burden.
This property he left to his wife, an
aged an 1 invalid woman, and to his
daughter Lizzi**, a young woman of
twenty-five There was neither
brother, uncle nor cousin who could
be called upon to undertake the cap
taiucy of the boats when Mr. Campbell
died and for a time the two women
were iu a quan darv.
Aa oU canal p o:it has verj mtle
va j ue intrinsically, but furnishes a
most comfortable income when prop
crly mil naged Mi.ss Lizzie decided
to keep the boats and ran them lier
self for three Te ars. She has attended
to all the details, hired the men of the
crew, bought her own stock and made
arrangements with the shipping
agents.
Besides all this she live3 aboard the
boatr, cooks all the meals for her
mother, herself and the crew, does the
family washing, and withal is cheerful
and contented Miss Campbell is a
large, pleasant-faced woman, who
looks as though she thoroughly en¬
joyed her novel business In a short
interview I had with her in her neat
but small cabin, while s'ic was prepar¬
ing the dinner for her crew of four
men, she said :
“Yes, I’ve been in this business for
three years for myself, but lam an old
canaller. I was brought upon a canal
boat, and of course when it became
necessary for me to take hold of tbe
management of our boats, I knew a
good deal about tlie way of doing
business, still f had lots to learn, but
after a few trips managed to p ck up
all that was needful.
“Of course, when I first went to an
agent’s office tilings seemed a little
queer, and the agents evidently
thought it queer also, but both they_
and myself have grown accustomed to
the conditions, and get along with as
little friction as do the men folks,
though some of them, I believe, claim
they do not like to do business with a
woman. ”
All along the canal I found that all
the boatmen and shippers were loud
in their praises of Miss Campbell’s
abilities as a boat owner She has
the reputation of being an exacting
captain, demanding full labor from
her help, but, withal, just. Shekeep3
her men to the mark and knows iin
mediately what work has been left un¬
done, or if her mules and horses hare
not been properly cared for, auc 1 , if
necessary, can harness and attend to
these adjuncts of a canal boat herself.
The shippers recognize her busi
ness capacity, and, in appreciation of
the active supervision she exercises
over her cargo, give her the highest
rates on freight, both going West or
coining East.
There have been many chances for
Miss Campbell to change the name in
which her property stands, but so far
none has been accepted, and the two
boats and the snug bank account, from
all indications, will remain for .some
time to come iu her maiden name.—

The value of an egg does not de¬
pend so much on the size ns on the
quality of the yolk. The yolk is
largely composed of a nutritious oil,
and unless the hen is iu prime con¬

quality.
Professor Oliver Lodge, the cele¬

In the use of rubber tires it must be
carefully borne in mind that no varn¬

respect should be had in applying oil
to bearings.
The average weight of the brain ol

It is commonly supposed that the
eating of oranges, plums, apples and
other acidulous fruits has a tendency
to increase acidity in the stomach.
This, however, is not so On the con

line carbonates, which tend to coun¬
teract acidity.
One would scarcely think of eating
skh* of a potato, the rind of a

doubtful if the skins of apples, grapes,

From Cabin to Castle.
A recent news item in the New York
Herald affords a striking illustration
of the possibilities of life in this won¬
derful country.
-Thirty years ago Thomas Nevins, a
poor farmer’s boy on the estate of
Lord Killeen in County Meath, Ire¬
land, came over to this country to
seek his fortune. He settled in
Orange, N. J., became a contractor
for street, building and railway work,
and in the course of time he accumu¬
lated many millions of dollars.
A few months ago Nevins got the
idea into his head thpt it would be a
fine thing to purchase the historic
castle under the shadow of -whose
fuedal towers he had labored iu his
days of poverty. He found that the

Pitfalls Dug for Lions.
“The Arabs seldom attempt the de¬
struction of the lion except bv means
of a pitfall,” said John T. Worley, of
New Orleans. “In the summer time
the cattle owners have little to fe sr,
as these beasts can find plenty of food
in their own haunts, but in the winter
the lions, suffering with cold an I
hunger, descend from the mountains,
and the Arabs have to be vigilant.
They pitch their tents in a circle and
surround them with a hedge about six
feet high. Between the teats aud the
hedge a deep trench is dug. Wnen the
hungry lion comes that way he scents
the cattle, and they, scenting him, set
up a loud bellowing, which only tends
to whet the appetite ox the voracious
thief on the outside. The height of
the hedge is scorned by such a leaper
as he is, and finally be steps back a
few paces, and with a terrific roar
clears the hedge, but instead of find¬
ing himself in the midst of the cattle
ne falls into the pit. There he lies, and
me people of the tents, frantic with
joy, rush to the edge of the pit and
shower bullets and stones on their
enemy until he is dead.”—San Fran¬
cisco Chronicle,
FLOATING FACTS.
Boston has a water-storage capacity
for 17,746,843,960 gallons, which is
considered to be 433 days’ supply,
Philadelphia has the name of
“Mother City of Photographic Por¬
traiture” because it was the first city
in this country to adopt photography
after Daguerre, and was the first in all
the world to apply the new art to the
reproduction of human faces.
When the editor of the populist pa¬
per at Kingman, Kan., returned from
the state convention, where ho had
voted against female suffrage, he was
seized by a large party of woman’s
rights people, who put on him a darn¬

Hubbard” and marched him through
the streets, headed by a brass band.

weighed only 739 pounds.
Cure for the Blues.
In a certain town a number of cures
were established. There was a faith
cure, a hot water cure, a cold water
cure and a cure for the blues. Think¬
ing that in these days of business de¬
pression and financial stringency, when
more or less accute attacks of the bines
are so prevalent as to be almost epi¬
demic, a reliable remedy would be a
delight, we give the one recommended
at this cure. On his arrival at the cure
for the blues the patient was shown
into a small office where sat a physi¬
cian After questioning the patient a
little he gave him a small box, charg¬
ing a few r cents for it, and charging
him to keep the contents a close secret.
In the box was a slip of paper with
these words “Let no day pass with¬
out doing something for sgme one.”
This prescription carefully taken is
guaranteed to cure the most chronic
case. We hope if anyone under whose
eye this may chance to fall, is suffering
from this melancholy disease, he will
give it a trial.
Consumption of Horse Moat in Paris
In the survey of the butcher shops,
one duty is to make sure that horses,ass
and mule meats are not masquerading
as beef. Not that their sale is
den On the contrary the municipal
laboratory itself lias declared this sort
of nourishment “an excellent thing.”
It simply demands that the meat be
sold as equine and not bovine, and
that the animal that furnish it be not
decrepid or diseased.
The first point is regulated by estab¬
lishing shops especially for the sale of
horse meat. Or, if it is sold from a
cart or iu a regularly licensed butch¬
er shop, by requiring that it be mark¬
ed plainly. The sale of horse meat
has grown to enormous proportions
since the first shop was established in
1866. Tlie estimate is, that it is eaten
now in a third of the Parisian house¬
holds. In 1891, 21,231 horses,61 mules
mules, 275 asses were sold in the Paris
shops. The meat costs about, half as
much as beef.— McClure's Magazine.
Necessity of Irrigation Recognized.
The necessity of improving the con¬
ditions of agriculture by means of irri¬
gation has been recognized in nearly
all states west of the Mississippi river.
Conventions have been held in Nortli
Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kan¬
sas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona,
California, Wyoming and Montana for
the purpose of more thoroughly study¬
ing the question of irrigation and ascer¬
taining what should be done by the
national government and the several
state governments in the way of legis¬
lation to secure the introduction and
increase of irrigation facilities. The
proceedings of these different conven¬
tions have have proved valuable to the
states mentioned. In Dakota, Nebras¬
ka, Kansas and Colorado a large acre¬
age has been made available within
the past two years utilizing the water
supplies that have heretofore been al¬
lowed to run to waste. The re
esults obtained have been highly
satisfactory, and due effort is being
made to extend the irrigating facilities
in these states.— Ex.

Beware Peddlers and some unscrupulous grocers will tell you, “this is

ping a damp cloth iu common soda
aud rubbing it well.
Very hot soda in a solution, applied
with a soft flannel, will remove paint
splashes Use soda in the water to
clean paint and glass instead of soap.
Strong, tepid soda water will make
glass very brilliant, then rinse in cold
water, wipe dry with linen cloth.
Ceilings that have become smoked
by keroseuae lamps may be cleaned by
washing off with soda water.
For cleaning oil paint before re¬
painting, use two ounces of soda dis¬
solved in a quart of hot water, then
rinse off with clear water.
A lump of soda laid on the drain
pipe will prevent the pipes becoming
clogged with grease; also, flood the
pipes once a week with boiling water,
in which a little soda is dissolved.
Wash white marble porches, bath,
etc., with a mop dipped in boiling hot
water and soda V good deal of soda
should be dissolved in the water.
A little soda put in the water in
which cut flowers are placed will keep
them fresh for a long time.
If grease has been spilt on table or
floor of kitchen or pantry, put a little
soda on the spots aud then put boiling
water over them.

“Well,” replied he, “I’m a plain
