A CARLOAD OF INNOCENTS.
A street car full of congressmen
and senators was passing the Dis

SUBSTITUTE FOR REFRIGERATORS.
There are times when the house
hold gods., are set up in places
where refrigerators, cold rooms and
cellars are not possible. In such
cases human ingenuity has sur
mounted the lack of all these and
found ways and means of keeping
food. The following suggestions
may be helpful if they are needed:
If there is a convenient spring or
well, butter may be kept cool and
palatable by being hung in the wa
ter. Put it first in a jar or bowl
and stand this in a tightly covered
pail. If the spring is a deep one,
lay a strong limb or stick across the
top and with a stout cord fasten the
hail of the pail to this. Milk can be
treated the same, and a watermelon
never tastes so well as when cooled
in the water.—Mary Graham in
Woman’s Home Companion.
FOR DECORATION.
Get at the florist's a wide wreath
frame that will fit over the edge of
your lemonade or punch bowl.
Pill in around the edges with a deli
cate fern. When grapevines are
bare, cover the body of the frame
with glossy green galax leaves, using
partly the beautiful rich crimson
ones for variety. Upon this founda
tion place clusters of different col
ored grapes, letting them hang over
the oul^r edge. A more appropriate
and lovely decoration for this use
could scarcely be invented, and the
cost is next to nothing. — Good
Housekeeping. ; T
HOW TO RENOVATE VELVET.
French chalk rubbed in lightly
will remove grease spots from vel
vet, or the chalk may be dropped on
and allowed to remain for 12 hours.
To restore the pile on velvet hold it
very taut over the steam from a pan
of boiling water, keeping the right
side on top and having some one be
side you to brush the pile up with
a stiff whisk until it looks as it
shou]d. If this part of the work is
carefully done, the results will be
most satisfactory. — Ladies’ Home

Senator Clapp’s Idea of an Old
Fasliioned Hemexly.
Senator Fairbanks of Indiana and
Senator Clapp of Minnesota were
coming down from the capitol from
a night session. Senator Fairbanks
was complaining of the inconven
ience which ineffective night ses
sions have upon senators, especially
if they are threatened with a touch
of the prevailing grip. The Indiana
senator, turning to Senator Clapp,
remarked:
“Senator, yen are originally from
Indiana, and you doubtless remem
ber that old fashioned remedy they
used to prescribe for a disease of the
grip character down on the Wabash.
It was whisky and quinine.”
“1 don’t like your mixture,” re
torted Senator Clapp, with a scowl
upon his Indianlike countenance.
“It spoils the whisky and doesn’t do
the quinine any good.”—Washing
ton Post.
A NEW MASTER’S MADONNA.
Hugh Huntington Howard, the
water color artist, laughs every time
he sees a picture by the famous
artist, Bodenhausen, relates the
Cleveland Leader. ‘Ygars ago,”
said Mr. Howard, “I lived in a
hoarding house at which there was
a woman who was always uninten
tionally amusing the other hoarders
by her reckless use of big words and
her wrong pronunciations. It was
at the time that the beautiful Ma
donna of Bodenhausen was being
exhibited, and it was quite the fad
for ladies when out on a shopping
expedition to stop .in and view -the
wonderful picture. One evening at
the table this woman asked one of
the other boarders in a voice which
could be heard by every one else at
the table, ‘Oh, Mr. Blank, have you
been to see the beautiful board
ing house Madonna yet ?’ ”

HOW THEIR BACKS FACED.
There was an Irishman named
Patrick Cane on the stand up at
Macon a few years ago during the
trial of the case of a damage suit
against a railroad. Pat was a most
decided witness, and his witty re
plies caused much amusement
among the lawyers and spectators.
All efforts to entrap him were skill
fully parried by the intelligent son
of Erin, whose native good sense
was more than a match for the big
wigs. The defendant’s attorney
said:
“How, Pat, which way did yon
aay these hoys were looking when
the train came in ?”
“East, sor ”
“East. Ah ha! And now state
which way their hacks were ?”
“Well, sor,” said the witness,
“their hacks wuz facing west.”—St.
Louis Republic.
“I have been suffering from dys

FACTS ABOUT THE OSTRICH.
Although the ostrich has power
ful legs and can kick like a mule,
his limbs are very brittle and are
easily broken. He lias two toes on
each foot, one being armed with a
horny hail, which he s&fes as his
principal weapon of warfare. When
an unarmed man is attacked by one
of these birds, the chances are very
much against the man unless he can
climb a tree or jump over a five foot

an action for trial and of the confi

“A case of blind faith,” said the
clergyman. “The doctor writes out

yon cannot read it. Yon don’t know
what it is. He tells yon to take it.

Whether or not Dr. Patton meant

throughout the congregation.
