The womou of llclRlum and Hol land tire noted for their snowy linen , and they nscrlbo thU Utialroil result to the use of borax a handful to ton gallons lens of water. Borax , being a neutral salt , docs not Injure the moat tlollcato fabric. WaUr lu which borax has been dissolved is excellent to wash all kinds of lace , also all aorta of woolen goods , flannel , cashmoru raid blnnkots. If red table olotliB are washed with borax instead of soap , tkoy Mill not fade , Starch which is made by using a toaspoouful of borax and two tablespoonfuls - spoonfuls of starch adds an extra gloss to the clothing. lUnsing chlldi'oii'a carrucuts in borax water is said to make them fireproof that is , It the clothing patches lire , it will only emoldcr. A little borax put in the wa ter with which windows are washed will help to clean them more easily. It is also good for oilcloths. If moths Infest the furnlturo they can bo re moved by dusting the crevices with powdered borax. Uorax sprinkled on clothluc aud furs which are kept air tight is a preventive ot moths. Silver IB easily cleaned by Immersing In atroug borax water for several houra * The water should bo boiling when the silver is put in. Uorax is also used for toilet purposes. Washing out the mouth with It makes the breath purer and sweotor. It cleanses the hair , but only a very llttlo should bo used , as U makes the scalp dry. The hair should also bo thoroughly rinsed after wards In clear water. Borax curd soap la very convenient in the house hold. It is made as follows : Dissolve three ounces of borax In two < iuarts of warm water , add to this two pouml& of host yellow soap , sliced flno ; stir all together in a jar , and set lu a warm place until all is melted , stirring occasionally. When It Is cool it will form a Jolly ; one tablespoonful will make a strong lather In a gnllon of water. Montreal Herald anil Star. PASTE DIAMONDS. The X Itnyn the ( Irriitoit Jndgo of Full * Juwnlry. It seems the X rays have boon proved to bo the greatest Judge of false jowola and that conservative lapidaries will soon trust to the X rays decision rather than bollovo tholr own eyes. In fact , the marvelous rays have detected very old paste diamonds of the time of Queen Elizabeth , which had at first de ceived no less than Mr. Strcetor , the famous London Jowoler. A real diamond mend , ruby and pearl when photo graphed under the rays leave no Im pression whatever on the film. It la elmply non-existent , says that author ity. Tlio false stone , on the contrary , comes out aa a shadowy substance , and prusto loaves a well defined form of dark color. Two photographs of a lady's hand thickly covered with heav ily jerweled rings showed in ono by tlio ordinary process all the stones ; In the photograph taken under the X ruys there wcro the shadowy outlines of flesh and the deeper shading of flngor bones. But in each ring was an empty space the exact shape ot the jewel , which , being genuine , had becm trans parent to the X rays. It is wondered if the burglar and Jewel thief won't now think It worth while to put these terribly Inquisitive rays on the swag before risking their liberty to carry It off ? Since Mr.Stroetor began to experi ment with this dotectlvo , many owners of splendid Jewels have boon to him to teat their genuineness , put , alas ! there will tx > no more romances of stolen caskets with their precious contents changed to paste by unscrupulous hus bands or wives ? Oulda's novel , "Tho Americana , " marks the end of such dishonest Factions in high Ufa. Beaten - ton Herald. SUNDAY SCHOOLS. They Originated In Milan , Italy , ITndaV Uardluul Iturrumeo. Sunday uchools originated tn Milan , Italy , under the direction of Cardinal Borromeo. In 1680. Ry hla aid and in fluence numerous schools for the dis semination of theological Information of a rudimentary character worn es tablished. About the middle of the next century Rev. Joseph Allolno In augurated Sunday schools in London and between 17GO and 1763 a number of Sunday schools wore started in var ious parta of England and Scotland by Rev. David Blair and Rev. Theophllua Llndscy. Robert Ralkos of Gloucester lent valuable aid In establishing Sun day schools in the vicinity of his home wbero he was the publisher of the Gloucester Journal. In 1781 ho pah rent for suitable rooms and halls , and in them Installed poor women aa in tnictors , to whom ho paid a shilling a day each for teaching poor children a fundamental knowledge ot Chris tianity. Hla efforts had great influ ence ; other philanthropists followed bis example , and soon Sunday school began to spring up in most of th larger towns of England. The first Sunday school in America was started in Hanover county , Virginia , In 17SG , under th leadership of Bl&hop As- bury. New York Weekly. Coal In China. Professor Drake estimates that within the 160 square miles around Teo-chau there are about three thou sand mlllon metric tons of coal , and it must bo remembered that this area Is only a little of the ragged edge ot the great coal ilelds of Shan-sl. Most of Shan-sl has been found underlaid by large coal beds. Klchthofen I'sti- mates that the anthracite coal alone of Shan-sl amounts to 630,000 mil lion tons , and that the coal area la greater than that of Pennsylvania. SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS.
