; CHAPTER I.
“I’m the most beautiful beauty that ever
human. but I can’t be happy without a
3th lover and a silver hairpin."
; ' Pretty Pearlina was walking along the
load which extended from the city to the
little village where she lived with her wid-
owed mother and father and 16 little or-
,Dhlnl. The sky was blue, with here and
than a piece of white cloud and several'
"m nice rolled gold streaks from the sun,
, which was going down real fast in the east.
grasp covered the fields like acarpet
of velveteen, and upon the forelimbs of the
,‘Mely oaks sweet songsters poured out
‘ , mat streamed fluid melody. '
Lightly tripping herself up through this
nice scene of Mamma Nature, Pretty Penn
1 lino, the most loveliest cash lady' in Hobo-
keu. made a delicious picture. In fact, it
would be real mean to call her less thana
, mezzotint. She was as beautiful as a
dream after the hall. Her threadbare gar-
ments—which she wore very short in the
skirt and sleeves and low in the neck, after
the manner of cash lady heroines—did not
conceal the exquisite wondrousuess of her
- aylphlilte form. But there was a tiny
frown upon her lovely face. and her rose
bud lips were quite a good sized pout.
“Pin the most beautiful beauty that ever
was saw,” she murmured, stamping her
dainty foot, "butl can't be happy without
a rich lover and a silver hairpin.”
She did not see the footsteps of her floor-
walker behind her, and she jumped’ way
up when he hissed between his front teeth:
“Aha, aha, pretty Pearlinsi So I have
discovered why you have refused my heart
and both of my hands every Saturday night
for two years! You hope to capture some
Hoboken swell! But it shall not be! Nev-
ebr-r-rl I swear”—
Before he could swear a tall, handsome
young man. with a curled mustache and
creased pants, sprang forward and threw
him upward out of sight.
“'th whata lovely maul" screamed Pear-
llna to herself. "I wonder if he would fall
in love with me at first sight if Iwas rich?”
She raised her hinged eyelids, fringe and
all, tohis, and adouble edged pain of de-
light hit both their hearts at once. in a
moment he had wound his new overcoat
sleeves several times around her slendcr
, Waist, and as she leaned her back hair
against his chrysanthemum their mouths
met in one long, wide kiss.
"Pretty Pcui‘linn,” he cried, instinctively
knowing her 111111111 and addrcss, "be mine,
and you shall have a silver hairpin and nev-
er do anything but breathe."
At that moment 11 cold, haughty beauty,
with the usual quantity of curling lip, dis-
dainful eye and cruel slicer, confronted the
lovers.
“Aim,Heg‘iii':l1lSinyllu-«Fudih, so this is
the howness with which you keep your
promise to me. Aha! And you, you nasty,
horrid thing! You think to win him from
me, but in one instant 11nd at half you die!"
A flash of stool, and 11 silver hairpin lay
interred in Peorlinu's cream puff sleeve.

a tastier of great trouble and inconven»
ience as well as a serious expense, and
anything which tends to lessen these de-
serves our consideration. Under pres-
ent conditions the room itself has to be
famigated with suiphurous acid vapor,
the floors and woodwork have to be
washed with some disinfecting solu-
tion, the walls have to be washed down
and repapered, and the bedding has to
be sent to some special disinfector or
chemical purifier. By the use. how-
ever, of formalin—which is really a 40
per cent solution of formaldehyde in
waterwin the form both of vapor and
spray, the bedding, furniture and walls
can be thoroughly disinfected and ten-
dered perfectly innocuous. The colors
of papers, silks, satins, plushes, etc.,
are quite unaffected both by the vapor
and the spray, and this adds very ma-
terially to its value, while the effect is
said to be stronger than that of carbolic
acid, suiphurous acid. chlorine or bro—
mine. For spraying it may be used in
the proporiton of two, four or eight
drama to the gallon of water. For the
fumigation of mattresses a little of the
pure formalin should be placed, say, 011
a vaporizer under the bed, and to pre-
vent ioo great diffusion of the vapor the
lower part of the bed—that is, the legs——
should be thoroughly covered in with pa-
per. When one side is thoroughly done,
the mattress should be turned and the
fumigation repeated. I may say that I
have tried this method and have been
satisfied with the results. —— London

“'atcrproofing Cloth.
.An account is given in Romen's
Journal of" Doring's process for water-
proofing cloth, by which such satisfac-
tory results are obtained, when the tis-
sue is subjected to a precipitate of salts
of the fatty acids. The cloth is passed
into a special machine, in which it is
saturated with aluminium acetate, dried
and passed into a soup beck. A basic
compound being necessary, equal
weights of salts of aluminium and lead
are employed. and care is taken not to
introduce too largo quantities of free
acid With the aluminium sulphate, since
the latter contains always a certain
quantity of sulphuric acid, which, dur-
ing desiccation, displace-s lilo acetic
acid. To avoid this inconvenience, they
