Coton Brvsues may be better cleaned ‘with oil than with soap and water, or turpen- ‘tine; it leaves them soit and pliable. ‘TransraReNT Parser may be made by dipping paper in a solution of castor ofl in alcohol. e paper becomes quite transparent after the evaporation of the alcohol. ‘Sutver and plated ware should not be washed with ordinary soap, as it will be certain to lose Mts luster. If you do not have a “patent polish” hand, use sott chamois, tine whiting; Wash thoroughly in pure water and dry with alcohol. Waanisu FoR Waite Woop: beautifully clear covering for lignt-cotored wooden articles may be made by dissolving three pounds of pure and white bleached sheliac in one gallon of spirit of wine; strain, aud add one and one-half more gallons of spirit. Crerry.—The old-fashioned cherry wood which our grandmothers approved, and our | mothers bauisied from household requirements, is likely to resume its place among the popular woods of the day. Already handsome dining- Toom and chamber sets have been completed and are tlading ready sale. ~ Overs iy Borries, Erc.—Clean the vessel | thoroughly -by scalding, scouring or shaking ‘with shot, coarse sand, ete., then wash with a mixture of biack mustard and warm water: ohiorate of sod will frequently answer the pur- Pose, or solution of permanganate of potassium, followed by diiuted suiphurie acid. To CLeaN Maxie: mix powdered chalk and pumice stone, each one part with two parts of Common soda, into a paste with water, and rub it thorougly on the marble; or mix quicklime | and strong soap lye to consistency of milk, and Jay it on the marble for twenty-four hours; in both cases wash oi thoroughly with soap and water. Forsitvre Potisn.—The subjoined simple preparation will be found desirable for polish- ing and cleaning old furuiture. Over amoderate fire put a perfectly clean vessel; into this drop two ounces of white and yellow wax; when meited add four ounces of pure turpentiue, then stir until cool, when it is ready for use. The mixture brings out the original color of tie wood, addin a luster equal to that of varnish. By rubbing with a piece of fine cork it may, ‘when it fades, be renewed. Bettows.—For removing dust from delicate ceramic ware or other decorative work, light | bellows, elegantly fashioned, are in vogue. Al- thouga tiny in size, they ore substantially made. They are susceptible of elaborate decoration. The nozzies may be gilded or made of brass or other metal taking a high polis, and the sides and handies clothed with any rich fabric. on which desizns, in colors, can be worked.

It is desirable to make this apart- | ment att a give it an appearance of hot possess, and to accom- pe this every portion of the room and its con- its should be carefully considered.

Ail stuffy materials, as lambrequins or tapestries, should be excluded, as well as superfluous chairs, and the walls and mantel kept unencum- beresd with needless ornaments; a single stat- uette or a pair of candleabrums on the latter, and a few well-chosen, appropriate pictures on the former are sufficient.

An important case of interest to every tray- eler on the railroads was tried befure Judge Stow at Pittsburg last week. William Gardner had entered suit to recover damages from the Pullman Palace Car company for property lost while on the company’s cars. He was coming from Philadelphia, and while asleep hia watch and purse wero | takenfrom him. The Pullman company tried to compromise. but Gardner was obdurate, be- cause he had been robbed three times on sleep- ing cars. In presenting the case Gardner's counsel took the ground that the company was Fesponsible as ballee, Just as the driver of an express wagon is responsible. The company’s defense in part was that valu- ables should be placed in the safe provided for that purpose. The assistant superintendent acknowledged while on the stand that, owing to the manner in which the cars are now ar- Fanged, a professional thief cou!d reach through and rob a passenger In an adjoining berth with- out being detected. Judge Stow said that the case was one of those called into existence by new inventions, and one that required close examination. He did not consider the company responsible as a hote!-keeper ora common carrier. but when the company sold —— for $2 in addition to the Tegulur rates of passage, and offered the facil- ities of sleeping as an inducement to pay the extra money, it bound itselt to protect its Ppstrons while they were asleep and for the time being helpless. The jury brought in a verdict for the fall Glaim, with interest. An appeal will be taken the supreme court and the matter rend eciied. But in the meantime the hogan Pile up, another having been bro e — -_ attracted the Sob onepe of men sleeping-car companies all over the country Decuuse there was never another like it tried. —e- ‘Tus Txiat of Frank James is set down for 38 at Gallatin, Mo.

A New York letter to the Hartford Times says of Beecher: He lives in Brooklyn—where, also, he preaches—and he isn't over here every day, even now since he can come on the big bridge. T saw him a few days ago; he has grown older, of course, than he was in the days of the Tilton scandal, and his somewhat gray and very de- cidedly thinned locks hang loosely and half curl- ingly over his coat collar, showing the work of time. But he still wears, tipped back on his head, that soft old slouch hat (he could not wear any other; he would look ridiculous ina “beaver,”. an upright, angular ‘‘stovepipe” ot the fashion; he would feel restrained of his treedom, and altogether ill at ease In it)—and under its comfortable brim, so carelessly turned up. or knocked indifferently backward, that bold, ruddy, sturdy tace looks good-naturedly out, with that honest, scrutinizing glance for which those bold, intelligent eyes seem so well japted. How curiously, by the way, those es of his are placed. It is the very sears of the oblique line of John Chinaman—the out- ward corners go down—not up. And there is a world of brimming fun and humor in the expression, It is the look of a man who is entirely at ease (one would say) with himself and the world—the future world in- eluded—and feeling altogether comfortable. This man’s stomach is evidently a good one; it would grind up a tenpenny nail—if It can’t ‘ai- gest the Westininster Catechism. - Beecher en- joss his dinner. There is withal a certain peely heaviness and coarseness In that rather fat face that bespeaks a strong animal nature as well asa keen mental (shall I say spiritual?) faculty. Altogether he is a remarkable man. His sermons will bear reading—and will be read, too—a generation hence. Can as much be said of the sermons of other preachers hereabouts? One thing puzzles me. What does Mr. Beecher do with his money? Does he save it? He ought to be getting rich. His salary at Plymouth eburch is $20,000. In addition he must receive at least $5,000 from his lectures. Then he is said to own anewspaper interest in the Chrishan Union, which must bring him in something; and he owns copyrights which yield him something more—to say nothing of all the marri fees and presents he receives. Altogether he must be getting nearly $80,000 a year. He is known to be careless in financial mat- ters. He buys things he does not need—he gives away a considerable amount In charity— (and he is bored to death by all sorts of fools and humbugs asking for help)—and he lives fairly well. But he is said to have no money on hand. His wife 1s a prudent, saving woman; good housekeeper, it 1s sald; and it is under- stood she har the purse-strings at times. A case that happened not long ago will illustrate Beecher’s readiness to make ieee It was in ashop where there was a big book of plates picturing Egyptian scenes and obiects of inter- est.

Poole, in the Continent, The amateur decorator who makes a few un- meaning strokes upon the panel, or embroiders them upon satin, and straizhtway aays, “Be- hold! my handiwork is Japanese art,” is always interested in examining the history of that cu- rious workmanship which has of late gained such hold upon popular favor. The philosophy of art endeavors to penetrate the causes of the idiosyncrasies of the Japanese, and to learn not only the conditions but the governing motives of their pictorial representations. For every nation has its own perceptions of beauty and its own Ideal, towards which its limners work. Japan, the land of wonder and romance, has been, until sae like a sealed book to the outer world. its curiously-devised covers were all that foreigners were allowed to see,and curiosity was sorely tempted to turn the leaves writ with such cabalistic slzns to learn some- thing of its customs, scenery and art. Practically the lids of the book were not opened until the year 1853, when Commodore Perr reaching the shores of Japan, armed by a ‘om the President of the United States, succeeded in concluding a treaty by means of which her ports were thrown open to all the world. It is true, however, that the Duteh had possession of a small island near Nagasaki two hundred years previously; but other people were none the wiser in consequence of that settlement. To an English ambassador, Sir Rutherford Alcock, inay be giverfthe credit of the first large exportation of Japanese curios. His magnificent collection in the English exposition of 1862 awakened general surprises just as the similar department of the exhibition of 1876, in Phila- deiphia, aroused here a novel interest in the bizarre yet attractive work of the Mongolian race. ————— Small Farms as a Conservative Power. From the Providence Press. The policy of New England from the start has been in favor of small farms. Someother states tolerated baronial grants, which allowed the land to be absorbed by great proprietors, but the result was disastrous, Our -older readers recollect the fierce contests between the anti- renters of New York and the patroon. An amendment of the state constitution had to be made 0 as to necessitate the division of over- grown estates before a deadly feud, which menaced the peace of the state, conld be healed. Well did Wendell Phillips say: “Capital shrieked ‘pilage and agrarianism,’ but none the less did the empire state accept a barn-burner constitution.” And our national legislature, by homestead laws, has sought to multiply ‘the class of landholders. It has been-telt that the more there are who have a direct interest in the tilling +f the soil, the larger the class of those who give a hoatage to order. At times we have felt a fear of the mischiev- ous results of the purchase of large sections of lands by capitalists for wheat raising. A class of bona”za farmers are seeking large returns from the virgin soil of our younger states and territories. They are unanxious about gathering aciass of actual settlers on their broad acres, but desire only laborers, Sowing and reaping require but afew weeks of actual labor. and if they can secure workers enough to managetheir ploughs, harrows, reapers and binders, it is enongh. To provide familtes with homes is no part of their policy. They can be barons, their laborers serfs or Ishmaelites. This course may purchase large profits to the landholder, how- ever, but it fails to supply intelligent citizens for the state. Happily it cannot be a permanent. system. Even if occasional droughts or other drawbacks endangered not the profits, the soil would goon become exhausted. It demands diversified agriculture, a rotation and variet: of crops, to exempt a land from uitimate Steril. ity. To manage successfully, smaller quantities fetties must be held by individuals, and wisely tilled. And this brings us to a point of local import- ance. Complaint has been made that farming towns of New England are fast becoming de- populated. Homesteads that were once occu- pee by vigorous families are almost forsaken. jouses are tumbling down; gardens are over- [bales with weeds; flelds are growing upto forests. and everyt! jing betokens neglect. Now, there are farmers who protest against this policy as suicidal. Not long ago we were talk- ing with a sagacious yeoman. He ridiculed the notion that Rhode ialand need depend for its pee cn Grant te jons. Our ownsoilrightly tilled can largely feed its people. He shows his faith by his works. He has brought a few acres into rich garden, whence he draws a revenue of hundreds of dollars. He uses manure without stint, obtains the choicest seed, works diligent- ly and skillfally, and supplies an entire village with peas, beets, | lettuce and cab! And, not content with this, he makes his mowing fields groan under the burden of grass. what he Is doing hundreds of others can ao it our sturdy farmers will cling to their patrimo- nialacres.
