HOW TO CLEAX KID GLOVES. Light kid gloves soil so easily that they wonld bo a very expensive item in tho wardrobe if ono were unable to cloan them. In all largo towns thoy can bo sent to a shop whero they will bo cleansed for ten cents a pair." It is, however, a great convenlencoJe-Uo" nble-to do such work at home, if in a hurry, or living out of town. When plain nahptha or benzine is used tho odor clings to tbo gloves a long lime. Here is a fluid that will easily clean tho gloveB, and when thoy arc exposed to tho air for a short timo the odor passes away: Put into a three-pint bottlo one qnart of benzine, ono ounce.of ether, ono ounco of chloroform and a half an onnco of whito wintergrcon.

Tho rage of the owner know no bounds. ••Confound' you!" he shouted. "I didn't ask you to destroy the bill. 1 xiinply asked you to tell me if it woro counterfeit. It's worthless now." "It ncrcivwas of anyjuiluc," mildly responded tho clerk, "nnd the rule of the Department is that all bills ofl'crcd in this way must bo defaced when counterfeits boforo returning them to the parly presenting them."—New York Star.

Anything in tuo shape of originality nnd power is discouraged in a young girl; even exceptional beauty is not desired. Tbo mother of a young girl rathor under than over- dresses her, and would infinitely rather hear you say, "Sho is so mod- est," or, "What a graceful young lady your daughter is," than havo her phy- sical attributes 'alluded to. Thus all tho petty jealousies, uritruo go6sip and personal remarks which assail an Eng- lish or American girl having preten- sions.to rank, fortune nnd beauty aro avoided, and the lady becomesa pos- sible personality only when she has obtained a husbind's protection and cuter Tho single woman is an unknown phenomenon in French socioty; a girl who docs not wish to bo "married is supposed to have, as a matter of eourt-c, a religious vocation, and ac- cordingly becomes a lmu without much moro ado.— Every liberty is given ,as to choice of conviuit, order, otc, but with ono or two exceptions," which ".rove the rule, every French woman of good family dovotcs horsclf to re- ligion or a—husband.—[Argonaut.

A frightful succession of coal oil calamities again compels—attention -to. Hhc fact that in hot wcathor the prod- ucts of petroleum become increasingly dangerous. As tho temperature rises all these products, from tho heaviest crude oil to the most volatile naphtha, oxpand rapitHyr-wid givo off gas that, mixed with the air,bccomes explosive.

That can bo done as long a*»a low temperature is carefully maintained, but tho instant tho tcmporatnro reachcB tho point where evaporation begins then dan- ger threatens. , Gas. is gencratco., and, as it spreads abroad, fills Jhc vicinity with nu cx- plosivo compound which, coming in contact with fire, communicates in flashing combustion with tho body of the fluid, and an outburst of flamo follows which it. is almost impossiblo for any human agency to deal with. This was undoubtedly- Ihu canto of tho calamity to ihotank steamer Hans and Kurts, as it was of tho similar catas- trophe resulting in tho destruction of the steam scbooiior Louis lincfci atsca. The gasoline ncuidont at Almond and Adams- streets was of the same char- acter, and was attributable, as wcro the others mentioned, to the effect of tho hot weather on petroleum prod- ucts. The accidents to oil tanks by light- ning are duo to tho sanio agency, "elec- tricity exploding the gas generate^ from the oil, and the flash setting tlio tank on fire. It is difllcull to imngino how theso dangers can bo provided against wh'on tho products of petro- leum arc of necessity stored in huge quantities; but it is at least a plain rcquisito that tho dangeis .should be d pure benzine or naptha, caro must- bo takon not to bo near an open fire, a lighted lamp or gas, as the gas which it gives out is very inflammable. Another method of cleaning kid gloves is to uso naphtha, pouring it in a deep saucer. Tut tho^gloves on tho hands and dip ono band at a timo in the saucer, wetting tho glove thor- oughly, then rub it quickly with a soft dry cloth. Tho rubbing must bo dono very quickly or the glove will "look streaked. Should there bo any spots that woro not romoved with the first dipping and rubbing, wet a corner of tho cloth and rub the soiled part until it becomes clean. Iu using such vo'atile articles as naphtha, benzine,chloroform and ether tlio rubbing should bo done very rap- idly, that tho Btain may be removed beforo tho liquid dries.—[Housewife.

Danger From Coal Oil in Summer.A frightful succession of coal oil

calamities again compels—attention -to.Hhc fact that in hot wcathor the prod-ucts of petroleum become increasinglydangerous. As tho temperature risesall these products, from tho heaviestcrude oil to the most volatile naphtha,oxpand rapitHyr-wid givo off gas that,mixed with the air,bccomes explosive.When co'.d these fluids do not" evapor-ate, and. dealers in kerosene iilustratothe safety of thoir high tost illumiL >t-ing oils by throwing a lighted" matchinto-avessol filled with tho articlo theyespecially rocommond. That can bodone as long a*»a low temperature iscarefully maintained, but tho instanttho tcmporatnro reachcB tho pointwhere evaporation begins then dan-ger threatens. • ,

Gas. is gencratco., and, as it spreadsabroad, fills Jhc vicinity with nu cx-plosivo compound which, coming incontact with fire, communicates inflashing combustion with tho body ofthe fluid, and an outburst of flamofollows which it. is almost impossiblofor any human agency to deal with.This was undoubtedly- Ihu canto of thocalamity to ihotank steamer Hans andKurts, as it was of tho similar catas-trophe resulting in tho destruction ofthe steam scbooiior Louis lincfci atsca.The gasoline ncuidont at Almond andAdams- streets was of the same char-acter, and was attributable, as wcrothe others mentioned, to the effect oftho hot weather on petroleum prod-ucts.

The accidents to oil tanks by light-ning are duo to tho sanio agency, "elec-tricity exploding the gas generate^from the oil, and the flash setting tliotank on fire. It is difllcull to imnginohow theso dangers can bo providedagainst wh'on tho products o f petro-leum arc of necessity stored in hugequantities; but it is at least a plainrcquisito that tho dangeis .should be

d

pure benzine or naptha, caro must- botakon not to bo near an open fire, alighted lamp or gas, as the gas whichit gives out is very inflammable.

Another method of cleaning kidgloves is to uso naphtha, pouring it ina deep saucer. Tut tho^gloves on thohands and dip ono band at a timo inthe saucer, wetting tho glove thor-oughly, then rub it quickly with a softdry cloth. Tho rubbing must bo donovery quickly or the glove will "lookstreaked.

Should there bo any spots that woronot romoved with the first dipping andrubbing, wet a corner of tho cloth andrub the soiled part until it becomesclean.

Iu using such vo'atile articles asnaphtha, benzine,chloroform and ethertlio rubbing should bo done very rap-idly, that tho Btain may be removedbeforo tho liquid dries.—[Housewife.
