Take the goods in one hand and the hem in the other, pull the edge of the hem to the bottom of the drawn threads and the work is complete.

China may be mended as firmly as a rock in the following manner: Two persons will he needed for the work, however, for the manipulation must be done rapidly.

Put the white of egg on the broken edges of both pieces to be joined, and immediately dust one edge with the powdered lime, put the two edges accurately and firmly together, hold In place for a minute or two, and then lay aside to dry. (Kitchen When Boiling a Cracked Egg.— When boiling a cracked egg a tea spoonful of vinegar put iato the water will prevent it boiling out, no matter how much it is cracked.

About Mixing Mustard.—When mix ing mustard add a saltspoonful of salt and the same quantity of moist sugar, and mix with boiling water. It will be found to keep moist much longer and have a better taste. Torn Oilcloth.—This is difficult to mend satisfactorily. Try putting a piece of sticking plaster underneath the tear. It will need to be made damp and must be left severely alone after sticking it on till quite dry. Gay Russian Garnitures.

Professional "Wakers.’ A writer in the lajmlon Chronicle, noting a reference In Scribner’s Mag azine to a sign In a Dutch town, “I-. V. 1). Zwsan, Morgen Wckker” (which means morning waker). notes that the industry Is common In the districts where London workingmen live, and sixpence a week from each client is the useual "waker’a” wage. All over London, too, policemen make a little extra in waking those whose work calls them early, lie tells of seeing a South Kensington constable clam bering suspiciously upon a wall. There the peace officer caught the end of a rope and pulled till an answering shout was heard. The constable ex plained that the other end of the rope was affixed to a baker’s bedclothes. The Kaiser’s Short Pipc._ The kaiser's latest fad (apart from reconstructing German prose) is smoking a short pipe, which marie something of a sensation when ho went ashore recently from his yacht a: Heligoland. When hi ascended tho throne he confined himself to cigar ettes, and his next stage was a 2-cent Dutch cigar. Tho “bulldog” is a new departure In the imperial family. The Emperor Frederick smoked the tra ditional lojig student pipe, and (he old emperor did not smoke at all.

At the Brooklyn Fire. At the time of the Brooklyn horror, the Kate Claxton "Two Orphans" hot acomb, the first man to leave the the ater remained outside. "What’s the matter?" said an acquaintance. "Don't like the piece?" "Very much,” was , the reply, “but I somehow or other I can't feel comfortable. 1 feel like a i haunted house. if I were supersti tious I'd believe something bad is go ing to happen around here—an explo sion. a railroad disaster, a shipwreck or that sort of thing." Dr. Wllllamso Swears. Yorktown, Ark., Jan. 18.—Last week a statement was published from 1/e land Williamson, M. I).. of this plare, to the effect that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best medicine for all Kidney Diseases and that he uses them with uniform success in his daily practice. No one who knows Dr. Williamson will donbt for a moment the complete truth of his fearless declaration, but to completely clinch the matter in the minds of those who may not have the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with this celebrated physician, Dr. Williamson has appeared before Mr. H. K. Greene, J. P. for Montgomery County, and made a sworn statement. lu this sworn statement the doctor has cited a number of cases which have been completely cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills. Here is case No. 1: "Henry Hall, Sr., age IS, an Ameri can, attacked with Malaria liaema turla, or Swamp Fever; temperature runged from 101 to 105, highly coated tongue, constitpated bowels, hemor rhage or passage of blood from Kid neys; used febrifuge and Dodd's Kid ney Pills to relieve the inflammation and congested condition of Kidneys and to render the urine bland and non irritating. Recovery complete after two months' treatment of the Pills.” Industry and prosperity are spelled1 differently, but they mean about the I same thing. s I M iss Rose Hennessy, well known as^ a poetess and elocutionist, of Lexington, Ky., tells how she was cured of uterine inflammation and ovaritis by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound* “ Dka it Mns. Pinkii am : — I liar*- l>een so blessedly helped through tho use of Lydia 12. Pinkham's Vejfelable Compound that 1 feel it but just to acknowledge it, hoping that it may help souio other woman suffering as 1 did. “ For years I enjoyed the best of health and thought that I would always do so. 1 attended parties and receptions thinly elad. and would be suddenly chilled, but 1 did not think of the results, 1 caught a bad cold eighteen months ago while menstruating, and this caused inflammation of the womb *nd congested ovaries. 1 suffered excruciating pains :in<l kept getting worse. My attention was called to vour Vegetable Compound aud the wonderful cures it had performed, and 1 made up my mind to try it for two months and see what it would do for me. Within one month I felt mueli better, and at the close of the second 1 was entirely well. * *’ I have advised a number of my lady friends to use it, and all express themselves as well satisfied with the results au 1 was.”—Miss Rosa Nona Hk.nskssi . 410 S. Broadway, Lexington. Ky. The experience ami testimony of come of tbe most noted women of America go to prove hcyoml a question that Lydia 12. Pinkhain's Vegetable Compound will correct all such trouble amt at once, by removing tbe cause, aud restoring tho organs to » normal and healthy eondltion. “Dear Mrs. Pinkiiam : — About two years ago I consulted a phy ^ sician about my health which had liecome so wretched that I was no I longer able to lie about. 1 had severe bacliachc, I tearing-down mins, pains across flu* abdomen, was very nervous and Irritable, aim thist trouble grew worse each mouth. The physician prcserilted for me, but I soon discovered thr.t he was unable to help me. ami 1 then decided to try Lydia 12. Pinl.ham's Vegetable Compound, and soon found that it was doing me good. My appetite was returning, the pains disappear I ing, and the general Iteuents were well marked. “ You cannot realize how pleased 1 was, »ml after taking the medi cine for only three months. I found that 1 was completely cured of my trouble, aud have l*een well and hearty ever since, and no more fear tho monthly ]ieriod, as it now passes without pain to me. Yours very truly, i Miss Pearl Ackers, 327 North Summer St., Nashville, Tenn.” When a medicine has liecn siieeessfnl in restoring to health more tiiun a million women, you cannot well say w ithout trying it “ I do not believe It w ill belli me.” If you are ill, do not liesituto to get a hot lie of Lydia 12.
