USEFUL HINTS.
Good Coffee. —Good coffee can Iks
made in n common coffee-pot by ob
serving the following rules : Uho the
beet old Java, and allow one table
spoonful for each person that ia to drink,
then pour on boiling water in the pro
portion of a pint to each tablo-Hj<xmful,
and break an egg into the pot, throwing
in the shell also. If you think it ex
travagant to use an egg for this purpose,
a tish-skin as large as an old-fashioned
cent will settle it well. Boil alxiut half
an hoar, and jnst 1 adore serving pour
out a little of the coffee and return it to
the pot, anil set it in some place where
it will stand even, but not on the stove.
A Tint Room.—Do you ever observe
that a tidy room is invariably a cheerful
one ? It is cheering to come into one's
breakfast-room and find it sjiotlessly
tidy; but still more certainly will cheer
fulness come if tidiness is the result of
our own exertion; and so we counsel
you, friends, if you are ever disheart
ened, vexed or worried about something
that has gone wrong with you iu the
world, to have resort to the great ref
uge of tidiness. Don’t sit brooding and
bothering. Go to work and make ev
erything tidy alwmt you and you cannot
fail to recover your cheerfulness.
How to Wash thk Face. — Many peo
ple object to the use of soap for the face,
disliking the shiny, polished appearance
it gives, but any who will use Dr. Wil
son's directions will find that objection
removed. They are as follows: “Fill
your basin alsmt two-thirds full with
fresh water; dip your face iu the water
and then your hands. Soap the hands
well and pass the soaped hands with
gentle friction over the whole face.
Having performed this part of the ojx-r
--ation thoroughly, dip the face in the
water a second time and rinse it com
liletely. You may add very much to the
tixury of the latter part of the operation
by having a second basin ready with
fresh water to perform a final rinse.”
To Pkkhebvk Harness.—There is
nothing looks nicer in its way than a
clean, bright-looking set of harness, nor
is there anything more quickly dam
aged by neglect. Harness should be
washed and oiled frequently. To do
this effectually the straps should be un
buckled and detached, and then washed
with soft water nnd crown soap, and
hung by a slow tiro or in the sun until
nearly dry, then coated with a mixture
of neatsfoot oil and tallow and allowed
to remain in a warm room for several
hours, and when perfectly dry rub
thoroughly with a woolen rag. The
rubbing iB important, as it, in addition
to removing the surplus oil and grease,
tends to close the poresand cive a finish
to the leather. In hanging harness enro
should bo taken to allow ail the straps to
hang their full length. All closets
should be well ventilated, and when
possible le well lighted. To clean plated
mountings, use a chamois with a little
tripoli or rotten stone, but they should
be scoured us little as possible.
Kiiiod for Taking 1 a Man nl His Word.
A lately-landed Hibernian was a pris
oner recently in the Fordham (N. Y.)
Police Court to answer a charge of as
sault and battery preferred against him
by a neighbor.
•‘Why did you strike the complain
ant?” asked Justice Wheeler.
“Bekase ho tould me ter du it,” wae
the reply.
“Oh, you merely obeyed orders ?”
“Yis, Judge.”
“Tell me all about it.”
“All there ees about it, Judge, eos we
had a little growl, and oi tould him oi’d
slap ees face; then ee jumps oop and
down and cries three toimes, ‘Du it, du
it, du it.’”
“And you did it?”
“Oi did, sur.”
“Fine, $10.”
“ What, after he tould mo ter du it?”
“Yes; you had no business to strike
him, even at his own request. Got $10?”
A friend paid the tine, ami the pris
oner retired, muttering to himself, “A
strange couutree oi’ve got into. ”
Balmy.
In a railway carriage a young lady sits
sniffing a rose.
“Mademoiselle loves roses because
they are balmy,” says a gallant youth
opposite ; “ I also am balmy.”
“ Monsieur is a perfumer ? ”
“No, an embalmer of corpses.”
Tint whole number of students in the
colleges of the United States last year in
collegiate courses were 30,008. In the
preparatory departments there were
27,000.
The Danville (Ya.) THmes tells a won
derful story about John B. Bagsdale,
who lives in that county. Ho is now in
his ninetieth year. His hair has been as
white as snow, but it is now turning
black again.

The First Watch.
At first the watch was about the size
of a dessert plate. It had weights, and
was used as a “pocket clock.” The
earliest known use of the modem name
occurs in the record of 1552, which men
tions that Edward VI. had “ one larum
or watch of iron, the case leing like
wise of iron gilt, with two plummets of
lead." The first watch may readily l>e
supposed to have been of rude execu
tion. The first great improvement—the
substitution of springs for weights—was
in 1560. The earliest springs were not
coiled, but only straight pieces of steel.
Early watches had only one hand, and,
being wound up twice a day, they could
not be expected to keep the time nearer
than fifteen or twenty minutes in twelve
hours. The dials wore of silver and
brass, the eases had no crystals, but
opened at the bock and front, and were
four or five inches in diameter. A plain
watch cost more than $1,500, and after
one was ordered it took a year to make it.
