Kvery one twigs for distinction, even those
who are hopeless of attaining it. It is a
pleasant thought that we can do well some
thing which others only do passaMv, and
even an insignificant kind of superiority fc-
better than none at all.
The belle of a western town is the posspfsor
of such striking beauty that strangers visit
ing the locality are sure to have their curi
osity to see her whetted by the prevalent re
porta. One traveler, who attended a sociable
In the town hall on the only night of his stay
in the place, was naturally desirous of meet
ing the beautiful Miss Hosnier, and early in
the evening was introduced to a rather plain
looking girl of that name.
Not knowing just what the local standard
of beauty might be, he was not at all sure
that he was not speaking to the objert of the
general admiration, and thus began paving
the way to certainty.
"During the few hours I hare been here,
Mtss Hosmer, I think 1 have heard your name
mentioned more frequently than any other."
"Yes," said the girl, heartily, "I dare say.
My name is in pretty frequent use, but no
body means me. It is my cousin who is so
much talked about."
"Ah! Then there are two beautiful Miss
Hosmers," he said, with more gallon trv than
truth.
"No, there are not," said the girl, bluntly.
"My cousin is a beauty, and I am diKtinguu,hed
in quite another direction."
"May 1 ask what it IsP
Her eyes sparkled with mischief, mingled
with some real earnestness. "I'll tell you,"
said she, "I can make better Johnny cake
than any other girl in- this town, or county,
either!" Youth's Companion.
Ten Good Things to Know.
1. That mik which is turned or changed
may bo sweetened and rendered fit for use
again by stirring in a little soda.
8. That salt will curdle new milk; hence,
in preparing milk porridge, gravins, etc., the
salt should not be added until the dish is pre
pared. 8. That fresh meat, after beginning to sour,
will sweeten if placed out of doors in tbe
cool of the night.
4. That clear boiling water will remove
tea stains and many fruit stains. I'our the
water through the stain, and thus prevent it
spreading over the fabric.
5. That ripe tomatoes will remove ink and
other stains from white doth ; also from the
hands.
& That a tablespoonful of turpentine
boiled with white clothes will aid in the
whitening process.
7. That boiled starch is much improved by
the addition of a little sperm salt, or gum
arabic dissolved.
& That beeswax anfl salt will make rusty
fiat irons as clean and smooth as gluto. Tie a
lump of wax in a rag and keep it for that
purpose. When the ironB are hot, rub them
first with the wax rag, then scour with a
paper or cloth sprinkled with salt.
V. That blue ointment and kerosene mixed
in equal proportions and applied to the bed
stead is an unfailing tedbug remedy, as a
coat of whitewash is for the walk of a log
house.
10. That kerosene will soften boots and
shoes that have been hardened by water, and
render them as pliable as new. I'liurnia

Simultaneous with the entrance of the
swells is that of the women who fill the stalls
and whose resplendent diamonds and sump
tuous gowns excite the admiration and won
der of all beholders. I saw one who was a
living counterpart of the original Dumas' Ca
milla She might have been a duchess, to
judge rrom the splendid poise of her queenly
bead, covered with braids of raven black
hair, which set off to rare advantage the rav
ishing whitonewiof her skin. I have no words
with which to do justice to her charms.
Court beauties of the roign of Charles II
boasted of this rare type, but I am of tbe
opinion that even these grent ladies could not
command the air of superb hauteur of thi
woman of the Alhanibra concert hall.
She only remained an hour, during which
Interval several fashionable men paid their
respecte by exchanging a few cursory words
with tier at her box and withdrawing, hav
ing removed neither their hate from their
heads nor their cigars from their mouths. 1
dont know, of course, but it seems to mo that
if I were a man I should respect the divine
loveliness of a woman of this typo, if I hod
no respect for the woman herself, and lift my
bat, if not to her, to that God given gift, her
wondrous beauty. But I am not a man, and
if I attempted to lift my hat, either to beauty
or beast, I should pull out half a dozen pins.
and have tbe pleasure of seeing my hair come
tumbling down in a heap. Consequently, I
am constrained to repress my chivalric ten
dencies. Pittsburg Dispatch.

THE VILLAGE
Under a spreading chestnut tree
The village blacksmith 'stands,
And in a brimming Uasin he
Would wash his brawny hands ;
But something else than. water clean
His sooty palm demands.
Week in, week out, from morn till
night.
He might have rubbed, I trow,
Had I not given him a cake
Of Ivory Soap, when, lo !
Full soon those honest hands of his
Were spotless as the snow.
A WORD OF WARNING.
There are many white soaps, each represented to be " just as good as the ' Ivory ; "
they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lac the peculiar and remarkable qualities of
fijenuine. Ask for " Ivory " Soap and insist upon getting it.

BLACKSMITH.
And when the soap escaped his grasp.
With wonder he did note
That on the water's surface dark
The cleansing bar did float.
As swims upon a turbid lake
A pearl white fairy boat.

friend.
For this which thou hast brought ;
No village blacksmith should forge:
The facts this Ivory Soap has taught;
For hands like mine it is the best
That can be found or bought."
