ALL OVER THE HOUSE. How to Wash Ribbons Without Injur ing Color or Fabric. A housewife who has phenomena] success in cleaning ribbons of all kinds and characters washes them in warm water, rubbing oa them white soap as she works, says Pitts burg Dispatch. Then she rinses them and irons them wet. As soon as they are dry she rubs them be tween her hands until they arc soft and then irons them again. They usually issue from the ordeal like new. The same woman has her own way of washing crocheted shawls. She puts the one to he cleaned into a pillowcase, tics it up and swashes it very thoroughly in hot soup suds. Then she rinses it until all evidences of the soap are gone and hangs it out, still in its bag, to dry. The day for the work should he sunny and breezy. The idea of washing the wool in this way is to keep it from drafts and changing temperature, which are responsible for much shrinking. It should not be wrung. Care of the Feet. The feet should be bathed every morning, or else every evening, for a few minutes in water from which the chill has been taken, using soap and a nail brush. When the feet are taken out of the water and wip ed no moisture at all should be suf fered to remain between the toes. Many have brought suffering upon themselves by roughly and swiftly drawing a crash towel between their toes, whereas something soft should be used. The nails should be trim med evenly so that they do not pro trude beyond the tips of the toes; otherwise pressure will be fell on the upper part of the toe. Apple Cream. Peel, core and slice one and a half pounds of sharp cooking apples. Put them in an enameled pan with half a cup of water, two tablespoonfuls of sugar and the grated rind of one lemon. Stew till soft and then beat well with an egg whisk. Whip up half a pint of thick cream till stiff, stir in the apples and color a pale pink with a few drops of liquid cochineal. Heap up in a glass dish and sprinkle with chopped almonds. Garnish with apricot jam. Removing Grease Spots. For removing grease from a wool en or silk dress try sprinkling the spot with warmed flour. Rub the surface quite hard, then brush the flour off and repeat the process. The spot will gradually disappear. French chalk may also be used for removing grease. Rub the spot well with the chalk and then hang the garment in a dark closet for a few days. If the spot Ims not entirely disappeared repeat the process. To Remove Cocoa Stains. Cocoa stains on table linen may he removed with oxalic acid when boiling water fails. Spread the stained part on a plate and pour on it a little hot acid. Rub gently with a soft brush. When the staiu disap pears rinse the article in plenty of cold water and then in ammonia wa ter to neutralize the acid. A table spoonful of ammonia to two quarts of water will be the right propor tion. To Keep Celery. To keep celery for a week or even longer first roll it up in brown pa per, then in a towel, and put it in a dark, cool place. Before preparing it for the table put it in a pan of cold water and let it remain there for an hour to make it crisp and cool. Chocolate Filling For Cake. One cup powdered sugar, one-half enp milk, butter size of an egg, one square chocolate or one tablespoon-1 ful cocoa. Boil five minutes and add one-half teaspoonful vanilla. Beat a couple of minutes and spread be-1 tween layers and on top. Sand For Scouring. Keep coarse sand in the kitchen for scouring purposes. With san.l kitchen tables and other wooden articles may be kept beautifully clean with half the trouble entailed in producing the same effect with the scrubbing brush. Homemade Varniah. Articles made of brass may be kept bright and free from tarnish if you will cover them with a thin coat of varnish made of colorless shellac and alcohol, which may be procured at any drug store. Concerning Pickles. A few bits of horseradish root j put in with any pickle helps to keep the strength of the vinegar and pre vents mold. Grape leaves are also excellent to lay over pickles, just un der the cover. Cooking Fish. Take care to cook fish well, for it is not only unpalatable but unwhole some when underdone and it should always be served hot for invalids. I' I CONDENSED STOF.IES. How a Boastful Innkeeper Was Pun ished by a Joker. Dr. John F. Russell of New York, whose emulsion of fats and com pound of vegetable juices have done so much for the cure of consump tion, said at a meeting of physicians that he did not wish to praise too ardently lhs discoveries. “For they who speak overhighlv of their own work,” he said, “are al ways a little ridiculous, and some times they stumble, like a certain innkeeper, into a pitfall. “This innkeeper, a New Hamp shire man, was noted for the fine quality of his beer. “A joker from Sunapee, a gen tleman named Perley, said one day that he would put up a trick on the ... -- - ----- —^i THE LANDLORD LIFTED TIIK GLASS. innkeeper, and as he sat at a table with some friends in the inn he poured a lot of vinegar and pepper into a glass of beer before him. “Then Perley made a horrible face and roared out: “‘Dreadful! It’s a shame! This is not beer. It is poison/ “Pale with rage, the landlord hur ried in. ‘“What’s the matter with you. Perley?’ he said. ‘That beer is all right.’ “‘All right, is it?’ said Perley, winking at his companion. ‘Weil, just taste it and see if it’s all right/ “The landlord put the full glass of doctored beer to his lips. He drained the vile mixture to the last drop. Then, determined to stand up for himself at all costs, he said: “‘An excellent glass of beer. I never tasted a better.’” Kansas City Journal. Why the Tenor Was Fir.ed. The late Judge (“Biff”) Hall of Chicago took great delight in tell ing the following story of “Punch” Wheeler; Wheeler, at that time the advance agent of a minstrel company, had returned to New York before the close of the theatrical season, and a friend, meeting him on Broadway, asked him how he had found busi ness. “Very had,” said “Punch,” “so bad that the only way we could pay the members of the troupe was to fine them. It worked splendidly, too, and by the time we reached Texas the manager had squared up with the whole company excepting the first tenor, who was such a prop er chap that there was no chance to find fault with his actions. At Gal veston Mr. Tenor sang for his solo ‘The Lighthouse by the Sea’ and for an encore responded with ‘Over the I Ilifls to the Poorhouse/ That gave | the boss the opportunity he was ■ looking for, and he levied on the j ! songster’s salary for the entire j amount—first, for telling the busi | ness we were playing to, and, seo | ond, for giving away the route of ! the show.” —Judge. Helpful Little Brother. Admiral Evans at a dinner at | Narragansett said apropos of dis appointment : “The poor fellow’s feelings in this j 1 misfortune must have resembled those of a young planter wjjom 1 1 knew in my youth in Virginia. “The young man was in love with \ a girl of great beauty. She had | many suitors, and to all of them j ■ she was more partial than to mv j friend. But he, though snubbed continually, remained very faithful. “One Sunday evening when he ! called the girl’s little brother ad- j mitted him. The youngster led him ; i into the parlor, went upstairs to an- : nounee his name and then, return ing, said: “‘Sit down, Mr. Sparker. She will see you in a few minutes/ “‘I am glad of that. I was afraid : he might ask to be excused, as she ; has done so often before/ “ ‘No fear of that this time. I played a trick on her/ said the little brother. ‘“How was that?’ Sparker asked. “ ‘Why/ said the lad, ‘I pretended j you were some one else/ ” —Kansas City Journal.
