e HOUSEHOLD <1
ORANGE tints are useful in many
cases for interior decoration, as they
are warm and pleasant.
WOMEN stand to do many things
which could be done as well sitting
down. A high chair, with a rest for
the feet, made to fit the sink or table,
will save many a backache.
ELECTION CAKE—Three and one
half pounds of flour, one pound of
sugar, one-half pound of butter, three
eggs, one cup of yeast and one quart
of new milk. Let it rise over night.
Add raisins, cinnamon and allspice.
BEWARE OF PAINTED Tova—Painted
toys for children are dangerous things.
They are even more likely to injure the
baby than tobacco smoke or the pro-
miscuous kissing of all the old grand-
mothers in the neighborhood.
PICKLED nIrE TOMATOES—T0 one
gallon of firm ripe tomatoes, peeled, add
two tablespoonsful of ground mustard,
one of black pepper, two of allspice, one
of salt, one of cloves; cover them with
vinegar, let them scald, but not boil,
three hours.
FRIED nuns—Wipe a few nice,
smooth-skinned apples, have a ready
spider with a little butter and lard in
it, let it get hot and slice the apples
into it, sprinkle a little sugar over
them, and fry slow to a nice brown,
taking care not to let it burn.
PICKLED menus—Pare and halve
the fruit; take seven pounds of_fruit,
three pounds of sugar, one quart of
vinegar, one ounce of whole cloves,
one ounce of stick cinnamon; put all
together and boil slowly for a short
time. This recipe is good for peaches
or plums.
REMEDY Fon CIIILBLAINs.—The fol-
lowing is a sure cure: Take a handful
of dried peach leaves and pour boiling
water on them, and let them stand till
cool enough not to. burn the patient;
then place the feet in that water fifteen
minutes. Do this two or three times
and it will effect a cure.
Manner—Mittens may be made
easily and look neat by knitting one
stitch plain and purling one alter-
nately. They are nice made of black
or any color of Saxony. Stockings
knit of soft woolen yarn, with two
stitches plain and two purled alter-
nately, fit well and are warm.
TnE tile facing of a marble mantle
showing a continuous plant and floral
design, in delicate hues, on a white
ground, presents the novelty of birds
in brilliant plumage, and bright, gaudy
insects, rendered in relief in quartz
grains in metallic colors, producing a
picturesque effect. The importation is
from Germany.
IIANDSOME BUFFET covnn.—A
handsome buffet cover is of crash,
edged by a border of drawn work anda
knotted fringe. Above the bordera
renaissance design, outlined with blue
and filled in with white linen floss.
The effect of the satin sheen of the
linen in combination with the blue,
being like silver.
GINGER SNAPS.-—Thl‘ee cups flour,
seven tablespoonsful melted shorten-
ing, one tablespoonful ginger, one scant
teaspoon salt. Put all these ingredi-
ents in a pan and pour over one pint of
boiling molasses (New Orleans makes
the best); mix well together and add
flour enough to knead; roll thin and
bake quick.
AN expert laundry woman recom-
Inends the use of kerosene in fine starch
to make the linen glossy and to keep
the iron from sticking. About half a
teaspoonful of kerosene to starch
enough for six shirts. The odor evap-
orates entirely before the clothes are
ironed. Each molecule of starch seemed
to be surrounded with an infinitesi-
mally thin pellicle of the oil, and the
iron glided over the bosoms, leaving a
smooth, clean, glossy expanse.
IIANOSOME LAMP SHADE—A lamp: .'
shade is made of strips of satin ribbon
and lace insertion of equal widths.
The pieces should be an inch longer
than the porcelain shade and made
pointed at one end by turning under
the corners and catching them together
on the wrong side. The pieces are
then neatly overhanded together and a
lace edging to“”-match the insertion
sewed in the top. A little tassel made
of silk, the color of the ribbon, is at-
tached to each point'. A fine cord made
of silk is run in at the bottom Of the
lace, to draw it around the neck of the
porcelain shade. YAgéassel‘ is fastened
on the ends of the“cbr‘d, and it is tied
in a bow on one side. Jiibbon of any
color can be used for t is shade, but
a buff or pink will be found the pretti-
est.
THE OBSOLETE CAerR.-The caster
of our grandfathers is altogether
tabooed by fashion, relegated in board-
ing-houses and restaurants. The only
shape in which it survives is that oi
the tiny breakfast castor,with three,
or maybe four, bottles, and even this
is no longer accorded the place in the
center of the table. If, however, you
possess a really handsome castor, a
relic of wealthy ancestors, you may '
appropriately display it upon the side
board with the rest of your plate. For
a dinner party,- its former place in the
center of the table is occupied by a
fruit and flower piece, or by an elabor:
ate flower-piece, low enough to ,form
no obstruction to the view across the
table. 3

NICKED noo'r HEELS}~ !
now Sleeping C's—r-Waiters Marked
the Inspectors or Spotters:
A Treasury ofiicial, who does eonsidJ
erable railroad traveling, says be hell
made an amusing discovery which, if
properly carried out, insures unusual
care and attention from employees on
parlor and sleeping cars. The tourist
who has been initiated is provided with
the most comfortable seat in the dining
car, receives special care and attention
from the waiters, and is always sure to
have a lower berth in the sleeper.
Should any of his fellow passengers be-
come jealous at the marked courtesy
shown their comrade and ' spired with
curiosity to know why thd distinction
is made, they have only to look at the
heels 'on the shoes of the favored one
and they will obserye that there is a
small “ nic ” Or notch there.
Inspectors or “spotters” of the pal-
ace-car service are constantly traveling
over the railroads to see that the pass-
engers received proper attention. They
do not intend to have their connection
with the company known to the rail-K
road officials, but frequently the latte'r
“ drop ” to their little game and stamp;
them so that they will be known all
along the road. The porter in gather-l
ing up the boots and shoes in his car,
cuts a “ nick ” in the hind part of the
shoe belonging to the inspector, ‘30 that,
the other porters will recognize him as‘
they look at his shoes. .

Constitutional Catarrh.
NO single disease has entailed more suilering or
hastened the breaking up of the constitution than
Catarrn. The sense of smell, of taste, of eight,
of hearing, the human voice, the mind—one or
more, and sometimes all, yield to its destructive
influence. The poison it distributes throughout
the system attacks every vital force, and breaks
up the nlost robust of constitutions. Ignored, be-
- cause but little understood, by melt physicians,
lmpotently assailed by quacks and charlatnns,
those suffering from it have little hope to be re-
lieved of it this side of the grave. It In time, then
that the (popular treatment of this terrible disease

new and hitherto untried method adopted by Dr.

Kaskine is the only blood urliler we have. I use
it very largely with unfall ng success lnnlldiseases

A MUCH MARRIED Woman—Mrs. Fowler,
of this city, was married last January to
her sixth husband, and strange as it may
seem five of them died exactly two years
from their marriage day. Her present
husband has been sick for the last four
months with chronic jaundice; and was
given up by four Of our best physicians ;
as a last resort he began using Sulphur
Bitters, and yesterday told a reporter that
they had saved his life, smilingly saying
that be guessed Mrs. Fowler would be un-
able to take a seventh better half for some

Amazing Speed of the Pigeon.
The much belauded steam engine, the
motive powers of which have constantly
to be tended and renewed, is but a poor
contrivance by the side Of the pigeon,
which, with his self-contained mechan-
ism, can not only travel at amazing
speed, but can “stay ” for an extraordi-
nary period. The performanee of the
pigeons which lately flew from London
to Brussels is astounding. They were
loosed from their baskets, some 300 trav-
elers in all, at 10.20 A. M. on Sunday,
and they completed the journey of 180
miles within a minute of 4 o’clock, hav-
ing flown the distance in five hours and
forty-one minutes—that is to say, they
went 360 half-miles in 340 minutes—
more than a mile in two minutes, and
this sustained for nearly six hours. It
is to be assumed that they lost nodis-
tance and that they went the shortest
way to Brussels; but it is reported that
they encountered a severe storm on their
passage, and every man who has battled
against a high wind well understands
what that means. It is obvious that in
fair weather, to say nothing of what
might have been done with a favorable
breeze, very much better time could
have been made. As it is, the speed of
these pigeons, kept up for 180 miles, is
almost equal to the average time in
which the winner of: the Derby runs his
race, and is superior to the time which
some few winners have made; it is, in~
deed, almost equal to the best record of
a racehorse over a mile, that record be-
ing about one minute forty-two sec-
onds; for no one now places the slight-
est faith in the legends of Eclipse and
his mile a minute. Maud S. has covered
a mile in two minutes eight and three-
quarter seconds. The best time made
by a man is George’s four minutes
twelve and three-quarter seconds; but
it is the endurance of these pigeons that
makes their work so wonderful. Migra.
tory birds, of course, come infinitely
greater distances, though it is neces-
sarily impossible to estimate their speed.
W
Losers of Money.
“Pardon me, sir, but did you drop a
twenty-dollar gold piece ‘9” asked a man
with an earnest look on his face, and a
memorandum book in his hand, of a
well-dressed individual.
The man addressed ran his hand ner-
vously into various pockets and re-
plied:
“ Well, now, I declare! Can it be
possible that I was so careless as to
drop that coin ? Yes, it’s gone. I must
have lost it right here, near where we
are standing.”
The man opened his memorandum
book, took a stub of a lead-pencil from
his vest pocket and said politely:
“ Will you favor me with your name
and address ‘7’” .
They were given and the questioner
started on, when the well-dressed man
cried: .
“Hi, there! Where’s the money? Give
me my gold piece?” ' '
“ Oh, I didn’t find any money. I took
a notion this morning that in:a city
like this, where thousands and. thou-
sands of dollars: are handled every hour,
there must be great losses, and - started
out to investigate the matter. Between
here and the river I~foundt seven men
who had lost twenty-dollar gold pieces,
and I expectto run the list up to two
hundred before I reach the. City Hall.

THE AFRICAN EXPLORER MADE A
SHORT VISIT To AMERICA.
King Leopold 50-0.“! man: for“.
Purpose Does Not AWE-It In! B.
to Head on Expedition to Africa—Hr.
Stanley to Leave at Onco.
New Yonx, Dec. 14.—It is now positively
settled that the lecturingtour of Henry 1!.
Stanley, the African explorer, will be dis:
continued, a cablegrsm received yesterday
having confirmed the message summoning
him to Europe. Mr. Stanley received
the first dispatch a moment before begin-
ning his lecture at Amherst, Mar-n, Sot-
urdny night. It was from the London
agent of King Leopold of Belgium,
and stated that his majesty desired that
Stanley, who is here on afurlough, should
at once return to Europe, matters of nge
importance rendermg it imperative that he
lose no tilne in doing so.
At the conclusion of the lecture Mr. Stun-
ley returned at once to this city and cabled
to London for full particulars of the emer-
gency in which he was needed. The reply,
while mt even hinting at the reasons for Mr.
Stanley’s recall, ernfllatically reiterated the
instructions of the first message. Orders
were at once given to secure Mr. Stanley’s
passage on the earliest steamer.
About midday yesterday the following
cablegram was delivered to Mr. Stanley:
Stanley, African explorer, New York:
Confirm Saturday‘s telegram. Matter
quite decided. Business very urgent and
vital importance. Delay dangerous. Your
instant return required. Reply.
lit—K. Ixxox.
The passage ticket was at once secured
and the announcement that he would sail on
Wednesday cabled to the other side. Mr.
Stanley still professes entire ignorance of
why he has been recalled. That he may he
wanted to head an expedition to turn back
the Arabs under Ben Mohammed, who are
ruvaging the valleyof the upper Congo, is
regarded as probable ' by Mr. Stanley's
friends. In view, however, Of the following
article, which appeared in the issue of Nov.
27 of The London Times, the real reason of
Mr. Stanley’s sudden departure may be
found to be connected with a matter entirely
foreignto Ben Mohammed’s party of raid-
el's:
Previous to his departure for America Mr.
Henry M. Stanley expressed willingness to
undertake the command of an armed mili-
tary expedition from East Africa. and en-
deavor to induce the king of that country to
relieve Emir Bey, a German, who, with 4,000
Egyptians, was at last accounts holding Wad-
ley against a. hostile chief. Mr. Stanley pro-
poses to place his services“ gratuitously at the
service of the British government and with-
out entailing upon them any responsibility
for the safety of his person. The scheme has
been submitted to Lord Iddesleigh, foreign
secretory.
Manager Pond, under whose management
Stanley contracted to lectureln this country,
was found in his oflce last evening before a
desk piled high with letters and telegrams.
“They all relate to Stanley,” said the major,
referring to the litter of correspondence. “1
have ascertained that fact and have gone no
further into them, as, since Stanley’s depart-
ure is assured, there is no sense in domg so.
The news of his recall has spread throughout
the country, and has elicited no end of
telegrams from managers with whom we had
dates, expressing regret at the enforced can-
cellation of contracts dud urging that some
means be devised by which Mr. Stanley may
be enabled to fulfill his engagements. Here’s
one, for instance, informing me that 2,000
tickets have been sold at one place. His re-
call will occasion an immense amount of
trouble, and it can’t be helped. as our con—
tract especially stipulated that in the event
of his being summoned by King Leopold,
in whose service he is, he should be re
leased from all obligations to complete
the tour. It is a great pity that
things have turned out as they have, as the
lectures have been attended with the most
gratifying success since the commencement.
Apart from the lam of profits which would
have accrued from the tour, I will sustain no
loss, as my contracts with managers are pro-
visional upon Mr. Stanley’s being permitted
to complete the course.”
Mr. Stanley returned from Northampton,
Mass, this morning and completed his or.
rangements for sailing. He will leave the
vessel at Southampton and proceed at once
to Landon;
Ireland and Rents.
DUBLIN, Dec. 14.—Ml‘. Thomas Sexton, M.

simply unable to pay the rents demanded,

Ireland must have liberty.
Boston's Election.
Boston, Dec. 14.—'l‘he interest in the mu~
nicipal election campaign has been growing
more and more marked, and it is evident that

to which of the regular parties will suffer
most by this defection from machine politics.

GREENSBUBG, Pa., Dec. 14.—The arrest of

roundings place her above any want. She
gave bonds in $1,011). '
