Wash the glass with plenty of
strong soapsuds and rinse with

be used in/the first place to dissolve
all the grease and dirt that may be
on the glass, and the rinsing will be
an easy ipatter. The polishing re-
quires more exertion and should be
done with soft paper, not newspa-
per, or clean old cotton that is free
from lint. When newspaper* are

Te Rsliavt Thirst.
It is noticed that pure cold water,
even when iced, does not relieve
thirst as well as when something is
added. lemonade, toast water, bar-
ley water or apple tea is often bet-
ter for relieving feverish thirst and
sometimes are valuable because
they have a slight amount of nour-
ishment. Do not drink a drop of
water that has stood in a liedroom
overnight, because it ha* absorbed
the poison exhaled by the body.

To Romeo* Lima Prom Oloo*.
To remove lime whitewash from
and to sea it clearly is quite essen-
tial to anv understanding of the
hsavens. Our sun is a star, brother
to all thosa twinkling pointa which
lie ecattered over the night sky.
Our world ia not a etar, but a planet,
•ieter to the few shining but non-
twinkling bright bodies which ap-
pear to wander slowly among the
atari. The planets belong to our
eolar system—all of them, without
exception, that wa are able to see.
Other planeta belonging to other
•tare may and doubtleaa do exist in
countless millions through the uni-
veree, but we have no power to de-
tect their presence. They, like the
planeta which belong to our sun,
shine by the reflected brightness of
their particular star, not by their
own intrinsio radiance, and so they
cannot be seen at a very greet dis-
tance. Any watcher with eyesight
and telescopes such as ours gazing
from the region of any star in the
sky outside our solar system would
sec nothing whatever of tho planets
or the moons of our system. Ho
might make out tho sun ns a more
or less dim star. He would not be
nblo to detect Jupiter or Saturn,
still less our little earth.
And it must be remembered that
every single star in the whole uni-
verse lies outside our solar system,
That in-
ception is our sun. So by the solar
system wo mean the little family or
kingdom of one star, known to us as
the sun, and that star is one of ten*
of millions of stars which all to-
gether make un the enormous stel-
lar system, ana that stellar system
is dodbtless one of very many, per-
haps millions, of stellar systems, all
of which together make up the cre-
ated universe, using that word in its
older and not in its more modem
sense.—Chambers’ Journal.

The voupgster* had been consign-
ed to the nursery, says I^ndon An-
swers, and strict injunctions had
\ been laid upon them to "play a nice,
quiet game." In a few moments,
I however, sounds ns of a thunder-
storm, with a dash of boiler factory,
j issued from the room, and mother
j rushed up. “Merev on us, children!”
she exclaimed. “Whatever are you
! doing? You must not make such a
terrible noise.”
“But, mamma,'’ exclaimed one of
the darlings, “we are only playing
theater.”
“Theater?"
“Yes. This scene is the storm at
sea, and all of u* except Tommy are
shipwreckcjl people calling for
help.”
Mamma’s attention was then di-
rected to Tommy, who, crouched in
a .corner, was emitting doleful
howls. t
“And what is Tommy doing?”
she asked.
“Tommy Is the scenery.”
“The scenery ?”
“Ye*. He is the ocean shrieking
in the teeth of the storm.”

Thsrs is an editor in Boston, a
man of very excellent parts, who is
of Irish descent, a fact of which ha
ia supremely proud. He ia fond of
contending that a majority of tho
great poets had, to • greater or leae
degree, Irish blood. One evening
while at dinner with s number of
friends ho was holding forth on his
favorite topic when no was inter-
rupted by one of the guests, who
•aid:
“At least there was one. excep-
tion to your contention—how about
Shakespeare P Surely you can't say
that ho was an Irishman I”
For a moment the editor was tak-
en aback. But quickly recovering
hie composure he replied:
“Perhaps not. but his genius
would justify the supposition.”—

Jiiot That.
Professor Barber, who ia at the
sad of tho Latin department of
the University of Nebraska, became
indignant when he saw the students
had oven eating their luncheon in
m, strewing bits of pe-
and particles of food on tho
hiS class room, strewing bits of
lioof. He cofnplainod to the au-
thorities, and tho superintendent of
buildings and grounds told one of
his assistants to write a sign of
warning, to be placed in Profonsor
Barber's room. The assistant work-
ed for awhile, and tho sign displayed
when ho got through read this wav:
“Do not luncheon in this room.*
Many of the purists of the univer-
sity were shocked, and tho placard
caused almost a sensation. There
were loud complaints, and finally
tho chancellor took a hand in the
matter. The young m
asked why he hid used “luncheon"
as a verb.
“Because it is a verb as well as a
noun,” ho calmly replied. And he
produced an authoritative book to
provo it. Borne of tho brightest
men in the university had learned
eomothing.—Kansas City Star.
The WsIqM of the World.
The world is to bo weighed once
moro, doubts being entertained by
scientists as to the accuracy of pre-
vious estimates. But whether the
error be a ease of short weight or
overweight has yet to bo settled. So
an expedition is to set out to Egypt,
where, strange ns it sounds, the
great pyramid will ho utilised hy
the investigators. First tho weight
of tho pyramid will lie ascertained
end then the weight of the earth
estimated from its proportionate
rise. The swinging of pendulum*
will lie the gauge, for the pendulum
is affected ny the power of attrac-
tion exerted hy a large or small
body—a mere question of nrithme-"
tic to the man of science.

From the
force exerted by the pyramid in

rom its natural course the weight
of the pyramid can lie estimated,

site of which is known—can then lie

Bombarding a Farmyard.
An Algerian farmer defied tho po-
lice and liarricadcd his farmyard.
Several rifle volleys were fired at
hi* place in the hope of terrifying
him. As this apparently had no
effect, a three inch quick firing field
gun and melinite shell were brought
into use. In all eighteen bomb*
wore fired. The first two flew wide,
but the other sixteen reduced all
the farm buildings to liiwps of rub-
bish. under which, when search was
made, the farmer’s body was found.
He bad evidently liecn killed by a
rifle bullet on the preceding day, so
mouth, a landing member of th«
Now Hampshire bar, lit* been prom
inent in New Hampshire politic* for
• number of year*. A few years ago
he was sitting in tho rotunds of tnl
Eagle hotel in Concord earnestly
discussing the political situation
with some friends. Ho had a very
nice now overcoat, which he care-
fully placed upon the chair under-
neath him. Becoming interested iu
the conversation, he paid no further
attention to tho coat. A stranger
standing near noticed that the
judge w a* very much absorbed and,
walking up to him, placed li
on his shoulder ami said, “Excuse
me, sir, hut you are sitting on my
coat.” The judge promptly arose
and apologized, allowing tne man to
walk off with his coat. When tho
conversation waa finished and the
judge looked for his coat his re-
marks were rather emphatic.—Bos-
ton Herald.
Points on Oyotor*.
When oysters aro removed from
more saline water to that which ia
less salt, says Dr. William K.
Brooks, professor of soology in the
Johns Hopkins university, who ha*
made the oyster a life study, they
alisorb water quickly and become
plump, or "fat, hut the fatness Is
nothing but water. Tho “fattening''
is usually carried on in the mouths
of rivers, which aro always near
towns and polluted by sewage.
Every “fattened” oyster is too sus-
picion* to lie eaten raw, mid the out-
lircuk* of typhoid fever which have
been traced to oyster* most dourly
have U'cn traced to “fattened” oys-
ter*. All the fresh water that a
“fattened" oyster has absorbed is at
once extracted by cooking, so that
the "fattening" of oyster* that are
to he cooked is not only an unneces-
sary expense, hut a fraud on the
consumer, who is sold filthy water
from the harlxirs of cities *at the
price of oysters.—New York Time*.

TH* Order In WHlAh Dm Plot
O*
Those woQderfhl men, the
tists, are always telling us about
some queer discovery that they hava
made. Now it is about the order ia
which the senses fall asleep—you
would never hare thought of that,
wouM you ? Perhaps you may hava
thought that all five of them go to
sleep at tho same time, but it is not
so. It seems that sight is the first,
being obscured by the eyelids. Then
follows the sense of taste, smell,
hearing and touch coming next in
order. The sense of touch ia tho
lightest sleeper and is the moat
easily wakened. Smell, though one
of tho first to fall asleop, ia the lest
to wake. After touch, hearing ia
tho first to regain consciousness.
The different parts of the body fall
asleep at different times too. Tho
influence Win* with tho feat end
goes gradually upward to the center
of nervous notion. Warm feat are
therefore essential to sound sleep.

“That spicy odor that you notice
in the cigar box,” said the dealer,
“come* from the wood of which it ia
made. It is not because it is im-
pregnated with the tobacco. On
the contrary, tbe tobacco takes the
flavor of the wood. That is the rea-
son that particular kind of wood is
used for the boxes of all the best
cigars. It is Spanish cedar. It is
an expensive wood, porous and
spicy, and the only kind which has
been found to improve the flavor of 1
a cigar. Tobacco, a* you know,
quickly abaorbs any odor with which
it ia brought in contact. All cigars
costing from 675 a thousand up-
ward are packed in Spanish cedar.
Tbe cheaper cigars usually come in
boxes of sycamore.”
