A cold wave is a fall of temperature in 24 hours of 20 degrees over an area of 50,000 square miles, the temperature in some part of this area descending to 36 degrees; between 1880 ajid 1800 no less than C91 cold waves were recorded iu the 'United States.

Experts say that the buried city of Pompeii has not yet yielded up a third of its artistic treasure; that at the present rate rate of progress seventy years will elapse before it is thoroughly unearthed. The Fashionable Envelope. Glancing over the big square envelopes now traveling through the mails, with the addresses sprawled in fashionable En¬ glish writing up and down instead of across the surface, one stops to wonder who invented such an ugly and incon¬ venient method of direction to puzzle heads postmen and make their recipient’s swim trying to decipher them.

Hotel men meet the world as it comes and goes, and are not slow in sizing people and things up for what they are worth. He says that he has lost a father and several brothers and sis¬ ters from Pulmonary Consumption, and is himself frequently troubled with colds, and he Hereditary often coughs enough to make him sick at Consurnptionhis stomach. When¬ ever he has taken a cold of this kind he uses Boschee’s German Syrup, and it cures him every time. Here is a man who knows the full danger of lung trou¬ bles, and would therefore be most particular as to the medicine he used. What is his opinion ? Listen ! “I use nothing but Boschee’s German Syrup, and have advised, I presume, more than a hundred different per¬ sons to take it. They agree with me that it is the best cough syrup in the market. ’ ’ (A ; > ■ SCOTT’S : ’ : ; ! ( ! ; t s EMULSION ! '• : ' nOES CURE : .

Slake four ounces of quick-lime with a little water, and gradually add enough water to. make a gallon in all; let it stand three hours, then bottle it in glass-stoppered bottles, putting a por¬ tion of the undissolved lime in each bot¬ tle. When you want to use some, pour off the clear liquid from the top. The breakfast should be eaten at eight o'clock, the dinner at noon, and a light supper about live o’clock, at least two hours before bed-time. We are speak¬ ing of children who have been weaned and have cut their teeth. Until the teeth are cut children should bo nursed, then they should ba fed on panadas of bread, milk and sugar, or bread and meat-juice and plain soups and digesti¬ ble vegetables. While children are growing their bones are hardening in accordance with the quantity of* nitrogenous and phos phatic elements supplied to them, and their flesh is gaining strength and firm¬ ness. Heuce the demands of a healthy appetite should always bo satisfied. Wo repeat our advice to give children plenty of plain, wholesome food; their systems are active and will appropriate it.~ Housewife. THE CARE OF FINE CUT GLASS. If fine cut glass becomes tarnished or blurredpolish witha fine soft brush ou and 1 it U will 6 btTresfcQred to its original beauty; or a very soft piece of newspapet can boused to polish glass. Wet the piece of newspaper slightly and gently rub the glass. Be careful not to give tho frail thing a twist in rubbing it-that is, carrying one hand m an opposite chrec tion from the other, which is the quick est way to break anything. After that repeat the work with some dry, soft paper. It is said that to* the printer’s polish ink causes newspaper give a finer when cleaning glass than anything else, However this may be, no lint remains, and the polish is brilliant. If fine cut-glass water bottles get dingy inside rinse them occasionally with a little muriatic acid and then rinse in clear, cold water very thoroughly. Muriatic acid will remove stains or impurities, and greatly improve the brilliancy of the glass * But: ashes, sand or shot, which many use to, cleanse glass, scratch and injure the glass and do not bring back the original lustre. Besides, the lead in *hot is poisonous, and if any is left through carelessness in the decanter it might do great harm .—Brooklyn Citi¬ zen. THE PEPPER MILL IS A LUXURY. The little pepper mill is a luxury that has mat yet made its appearance in this counfry, except, perhaps in isolated in¬ stances, although it is common on the tables of hotels and private houses in England and on the Continent. It is a barrel, about two inches high, of silver, oak oi cut glass. The bottom is per forated and on top is the silver htinctle which turns the mill in the barrel. The pepper is put in whole and is ground by the person using it directly on* the article of food which is to be seasoned. The article is not only an ornament to the table and interesting as a novelty, but it has decided advantages over the ordinary pepper-boxes, In the first place, the spice which comes from it is fresh, and therefore strong. In the next place, the pepper is pure, which cannot always be asserted of that which is bought already ground. The investiga¬ tions g£ the Government testers of food have shown that, the adulteration of ground pepper is exceedingly common, and when you use one of the little mills von can be reasonably sure you are eat¬ ing pepper and not a compound of it ftfyed. with pulverized wood, The man who has given a pepper-box a gentle shake, only to find that its con¬ tents resist his invitation, and then tapped it sharply, only to have his food spoiled by the avalanche of the pungent stuff, will appreciate the mill. It has no vagaries, but always spreads the condi¬ ment as gently and evenly as snow falls on a windless day .—New York, Tribune. RECIPES. Good Cookies—One cup of molasses, one ■ cup of sugar, two eggs, two tea¬ spoonfuls of soda, three table-spoonfuls of vinegar, flour to roll soft. Nice for children's school lunch. Pig’s Foot Cheese—Boil equal quanti¬ ties of feet and hocks in a kettle until, very tender. Talce^ out the bones, chop the meat, season with salt and pepper and pressin a pan while warm. This is excellent cut in slices and served with sauce or vinegar. Baked Potatoes —Select potitoej of even size, scrub them with a brush, wipe with a cloth and place in a hot oven. The moment they are done, squeeze each one to burst its skin and allow the steam to escape. If the potatoes are of a fine variety this is an exceedingly delicate way of cooking them. An overdone baked potato is an abomination both to the taste and to the digestion. Souse—Clean and scrape the feet and ears thoroughly; put in cold water and set over the fire to boil. Boil until ten¬ der and the bones fall easily out, then put in a jar. Make a pickle of one half » gallon of vinegar, whole black pepper, mpee and cloves; boil these with the vinegar, then pour over the pigs’ feat. After they have stood two or three days they wijl be ready for use. Confederate White House. It" is settled that the old-fatli’.oued brick structure at Richmond, Vn,, known as the Concfderate White House, is to be used in the future for the pres¬ ervation of Confederate relies, The movement was started more than a years ago by the Ladies’ Holywood building.for Mem orial association to get this the purpo e, but some legal objections were raised. However, this has been overcome, making it a museum as well as a place for the preservation of the war relics. The city council recently passed an ordinance carrying into effect the pur¬ pose of the ladies. Houses for the People. Nearly 10,000 dwellings were built in this city during 1890, or enough to house at least 30,000 people. Philadelphia claim ev¬ ident! vin tends to make better her to the wile “City of Homes.’’ Of these new houses, 6,883 were two-story and 1,!)47 three-story dwellings, There were only twenty-seven dwellings erected of more than three stories, and only seven of one story, The buildiug operations have been carried on for the masses, as the large proportion of two-story dwell¬ ings plainly shows.
