The rarest and most expensive of all Chinese porcelain Is the famous “peaehblow,” which was made for a very short time only In 1061-1722, In the reign of Kuang III. The secret was the exclusive possession of a sin gle family, and It died out with them. A singular thing Is that the ware oc- turs only In five different forms, almost Identical In shade and dimensions. Of the flftli form only a single example Is known to exist, and this Is the fa-, inous "peaehblow vase,” whose history Is as follows: About twenty years ago an American bought It In China for $20. Not long afterward It was sold by a New York dealer to Mrs. Mary J. Morgan, who Is »aid to have paid $ 15,000 for it A few years later, In 1886, at the sale of the deceased Mrs. Morgan's art collection, It was repurchased by the same dealei- for 118,000. The story was current at the time that the dealer, expecting to get the vase at a low figure, had al. ready sold It “short” for 18,000, so that be lost $10,000 by the transaction It Is now In the collection of William T. Walters of Baltimore. An expert in Chinese porcelain has called It "as per fect a work of art of its kind as the Venus of Milo.” NEXT THIRTY DAYS Ladies’ Mackintoshes Regular $4.00, Now $2.85 Misses’ “ “ $3 75 u $2.65 Men’s “ u “ $6.50,’ $4.65 MEN’S AND BOYS’ OVERCOATS, OREGON ALL-WOOL MACKINAWS.

About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on retting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. 1 underwent a treatment for c&t&rrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist 0» this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to day after five weeks, my heuring in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank yon heartily and beg to reinaiu Very truly yours. • F. A. WOMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md.

Bread keeps moist longer if you al low one tablespoonful of shortening to each cupful of liquid. When making bread In cold weather, first warm the bread pan, the flour and the kneading board. When pan broiling chops, always stand them for a minute on their end» that the fat edge may be cooked crisp and brown Instead of remaining pal» and unsightly. When cooking a small roast, first sear it all over on a hot spider. This will Immediately drive In the meat juices, and less beat will be required In the oven. If corned beef Is very red, which means it is very salt, put it to cook In cold water. This draws out a portion of the salt In hot weather use no vegetables In soup stock. It will keep better. Add the vegetables In making the soup. In making a gelatin dessert on a hot or a wet day add a little more gelatin thnn the recipe requires—half as much again if you wish to mold fruit Into the Jelly. An ordinary sized box of pulverized gelatin holds five tablespoonfuls. Bric-a-brac on Glass. The other day I was visiting a girl acquaintance who generally contrives to have something new In the way of decorations for her tiny flat, and while making my usual tour of inspection I stopped to admire some very pretty glass hanging shelves that were storeJ with china and silver trifles, and when I asked where she obtained these novel shelves she was good enough to tell me, so I in my turn tell you, says Home Notes. The shelves were cut by a glazier from a large piece of old plate glass, and my friend had them graduated tn sizes. Holes were then made at each comer of the glass shelves, round the edges of which a pretty ribbon was gummed. Ribbon was then ruu downward through the holes, knotted at each shelf to prevent slipping and tied In a large bow at the top. I need hardly tell you the glass shelves were when finished well pol ished with wash leather. The whole effect was very pretty and seemed to me a good way of using the odd bits of glass to be found usually In every bouse. . , New System of Balldin*. The postal savings bank building tn Amsterdam, Hollaud, is being con structed by the Mouier system, a new method of construction. A steel frame work, like a birdcage in appearance, is enveloped in Portland cement, which prevents the steel from rusting, while the cement itself Is rendered elastic. The steel acts entirely in tension and the concrete In pressure. This con struction Is said to be strong, fireproof and waterproof and to be growing In favor in Europe for government build ings and factories.—Youth’s Compan- Help...
