Little TliinKs That the Housekeep er Should Know. y if White daisies with their golden cen ters and scarlet poppies were a delig-ht- 1 combination for a luncheon table ecoration recently. The flowers, loose- arranged in cut glass vases, and tit le fancy grasses mingled with them, ade a simple, but exceedingly grace- ul and attractive decoration- It is often necessary, owing to fear of he brushes being improperly dried when away from home, that these should not be put into water. They then may be thoroughly cleansed with flour. Have the flour perfectly dry and plentifully rub it into the bristles. Let the brushes stand for an hour or longer, then shake the dust out on an old tray or newspaper, after which use a clean comb, running it briskly through the bristles as if combing them out.-. A second rubbing of the bristles with pul verized magnesia before the combing, if the bristles are very much discolored, may be used. This will be found a most effectual mode of cleansing bristles. An old housekeeper says the cleanest and best dishwasher is a round whisk broom made of the finest and best broomcorn. It is cleaned readily by holding under the spigot and running hot water through it; after which hang it in the air to be dried. This does away with the annoyance of a discolored and often musty dishcloth. An expert gasfitter contends that the blackening of ceilings above gaslights is not always due to poor gas. "Ceilings are blackened because the gas burners are worn out," he says. "They cost a trifling sum, and should be often re placed by new ones." The practice of wrapping each loaf of bread in oiled papers when it is taken from the oven and sealing the knot of the string holding the paper, as is done in a few first-class shops on the other side, is desirable for protecting bread when the loaf has to be handled many times in the process of delivery. The bread is protected from dust and handling as well as the possibility of bacilli, and the paper prevents the moisture in the bread from escaping and keeps the bread fresh.. A portiere that has bright colors or something else striking about it is most effective in a hallway, or where little or no sunlight comes. An'inexpensive but desirable portiere may be made of bur lap. Make a 12-inch trimming or border a little distance from the top of the hanging and the second border half a yard from the bottom. Make this border toy pulling out half a dozen of the strands across the material, leaving a space and pulling out half a dozen more. Repeat this until the width of border desired is obtained. With dif ferently colored. w)ls buttonhole each edge of the threads with irregular stitches, fasten the threads together in little clusters with a couple of stitches with the wool, letting it run from one cluster to the next. Bright beads and sequins strung upon the wools and fastened in, hit and miss, add much to the appearance of the hanging, giving it quite an oriental'look. JT. . Sun. Tbe Blind of Rnaaia. Russia and Egypt are the two coun tries in which blind persons constitute the largest proportionate number of the total population; in Russia, on ac count of the lack of experienced med ical attention, and in Egypt, on ac count of ophthalmia due to the move ment of the sand by the wind, or, more properly, to the irritation caused by this unusual local condition, which has made ophthalmia general. There were at last accounts nearly 200,000 blind persons in European Russia, the proportion, (being highest in northern provinces and conspicuously so in Fin land, where the prevalence of blind ness, four times greater than the gen eral average in Europe, is ascribed to the flatness of the country, and the im perfect ventilation of the huts used by the peasantry. Many of these huts are either without chimneys, or are sup plied with primitive chimneys, which do not draw, and the escape of the smoke into the living apartments has a marked tendency to aggravate all eye troubles. Though more than half the blind population of Europe is to be found in Russia there are only 25 asy Jums for the blind in that empire. .N. Y. Sun.
