On lust Thursday evening the ojsrn
house had quite a respectable cmwd of
our cltUeiia lu altondunce at th Mer-
rill-Abt-Abbott combination. Owing
to Ita being very poorly advertised our
people did not give It (he usuid attend
ance. Those who attended were de
lighted and expressed a vory decided
approval of the entertainment, Muster
I'Mdio Abbott oH.ued the program
with aomo very clever, and some of
their aimixlng tricks, particularly
where the audience drank several kinds
of liquor from a bottle and when the
bottle was broken to expoae the ineeh
anlsm, a plii was found therein. Eddie
Ablxit is a Isiy marvel. He has perfect
stage preaencc, ready wit aud Is very
gentlemanly lu his behavior. Mr.
Abbott as "Gumbo" gcta off many very
good things unil keeps bis hearers lu a
gixxl humor,
Mr. Abt with his views waa so well
received that our people will welcome
the news that not only will the dis
solving views be presented on a screen
fifteen feet lu dliunutvr,biit that some of
bis finest pictures will be shown. Ta
ken as a whole, Thursdays entertain
ment was an agreeable surprise to our
people.
To Keep Flies off Gilt Fratues,-I!oil
three or four odious lu a pint of aaler,
and apply with a soft brush.
To Keep the Stove Uright.-A thin
coating ot three pnrts lard molted with
one port resiu, applied to stoves and
grates, will pi event their rusting in sum
mer. Paint or Varnlab Spots. Oil of tur
pentine or benzine will remove spots of
paint, varnish, or pitch, from white or
colored cotton or wooleu goods. After
wards wash them m soup suds.
Lump Wicks. Tomako sure of a good
ight, wioks oinst be obauge often, as
they got ologged, and prevent the free
passage of the oil. It improves the flame
to souk wicks iu vineger tweuty-fonr
hours before putting them in the lamps.
To Make Old Crape Look Nearly
New. Put a little water In a tea-kettle
and lot it boil till there is plenty of
steam from tbe spout: then hold the
otape in both hnnds, pass it to aud fro
several times throngb 'the steam, and it
will be oleau, and look nearly equal to
new,
New Kettles, Tbe best way to prepare
new iron kettle for use is to fill 11 with
clean potatoes peelings, boll them for an
Hour or more, then wash the kettle with
hot watterj wipe It dry and rub it with
a little lard; repeat the rubbing for half
a dozen times after using.
