SOME USEFUL HINTS.
For poison oak, bathe in cream and gun
powder twice a day till cured.
"Wash gilding with water in which onion
has been boiled and dry with a soft cloth.
Bo ashamed to iron a limp shirt bosom.
Men do not so much care for a polished shirt
as they do for a stiff one.
Air tha housj thoroughly every day, even
though the rain comes down in torrents or
tho snow beats in in drifts.
Use a silver spoon when cooking mush
rooms. The silver will bo blackened if any
injurious quality is present.
Do not be deceived by agents who have a
"superior f urnituro polish" for sale. Use lin
seed oil; there is nothiug'better.
If the eggs you have to use for frosting are
not quite as f re&h as you could desire a pinch '
of salt will mako them beat stiffen
Strong muriatic acid applied with a cloth,
and tho spot washed thoroughly with water,
is recommended to remove ink stains from
boards.
To remove white spots from furniture rub
them with a cloth wet in weak spirits of cam- J
phor, and afterwards with a very little lin
seed oil.
It is a good Idea for a tall woman to have
her kitchen tablo and ironing board a little
higher than ordinary. It will save mauy a
backache.
Use great care in serving food for the ta
blo, as the smallest spatter of grease or gravy
changes tho appsarance and spoils an other
wise pretty dish.
Tho repeated application of oil of cinnamon
will cause those ugly eicresccnces warts
to disappear. Rubbing them with salt is
also recommended.
Glasses and dishes wipe to perfection when
washed in very hot water. Use a dish mop,
soap shaker and iron dish washer. These also
expedite the labor, as very hot water can be
used.
A very convenient way to poison rats and
mice is to mix arsenic with melted tallow
and cool it into a cake. Have the tallow
merely melted, not hot, when the arsenic is
put in.
A bottlo or jar, unpleasantly odorous, can,
it is said, bo oleansod by filling with butter
milk, leaving a day or two, or longer, and
then washing well with warm soapsuds. In
very bad cases it may be necessary to repeat
the process several times.
A Woman's Club.
Tbo Alexandra is the most exclusive of
London's women clubs. It n also the most

thers are all ruthlessly excluded from within
its sacred precincts. It furnishes an admir
able center for shopping operations, and for

tages of bedrooms, let at the most reasonable
rate, to that girls and young married women
can spend a night or tnointown without
any trouble to chaperons or maids. Women
friends, of course, may be admitted into the
club, and servants and tradespeople inter
viewed. It is named for tho Princess of
Wales, and no one who has not been pre

STORY OF A LADY WHO TAUGHT
IN THE GERMAN ROYAL FAMILY.
A. Small Class of Empresses Beantiful
Princesses in the Rooms of the Royal
Schlose Tlie "White Lady," Who Al
ways Gave Warning of a Coming Death.
Out on Jackson street, in a modest little
cottage, lives Signora Marcucci, a teacher of
languages, who was fop Ave years instructress
in Italian to the royal family of Germany.
She knows all of the great ones about the
throne of tho kaiser, and has many uiterest
ing recollections of the days when the present
empress went through the weary conjugation
of the verbs and parsed and translated.
The instructress heard more than tho les
sons of her royal pupils, and some of the gos
sip of the court and the diplomatic scandals
that she heard during her stay there she told
the other day to an Examiner reporter, to
whom she gave the story of her life in the
family of the emperor.
"When I began giving lessons to Princess
Frederick Charles, in March, 1878," said Sig
nora Marcucci, "Berlin society was talking
about the appearance of tho 'white lady,' tha
specter that warns the house of Hohenzollern
that one of them is about to die. In this in
stance the death of Pnnce Waldemar bore
out the gruesome legend. With my mind
full of the uncanny mystery I presented my
self at the royal schlosse. As I passed up the
majestic staircase I was startled by the sight
of what seemed to be the 'Weisse Dame' her
self. A tall female figure, clad entirely in
white, passed me, without taking notice of
my presence. So softly did she tread that
not the slightest sound of her footfalls could
be heard. It was no ghost, however, but the
Princess Frederick Charles herself, wrapped
in a long white cloak. The death of her
favorite son, Waldemar, had plunged her
into the deepest grief.
TEE BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS.
"Though nearly forty years of ago at that
time, she was still the most beautiful princess
of the Prussian court. She was tall and
dressed with exquisite taste, though very
plainly.
"I soon got to know the princess very well.
Every one pitied her, for her matrimonial
misfortunes were known to every one in the
empire. She was the daughter of the Duke
of Anbalt, and when she was but 16 years
old she had three suitors, the prince, a Rus
sian grand duke and another young noble
man, she loved tho last, but her father
gruffly ordered her to marry tho prince, and
she had to obey.
"She was kind hearted and almost childish
in character, while he was rough as a wild
beast. She made no secret of her unhappi
ness, made worse by her poverty, and often
spoke of it to her friends, of which I was
happy to be one. She hud no money of her
own, and what she got from the emperor and
her father was wholly inadequate to the
needs of her high position.
"Her unkind husband never tried to make
her life bearable. They ould have been di
vorced if old Emperor William had not cut
short their demand by asking them, And
who will divorce me? And so they went on,
sho running away from time to time and al
wavs returning until death loosened tho chain
in 1885.
" 'My daughter, the princess of Connaught,
and her husband, are happy,' she used to say,
her eyes full of tears. 'They are at the same
time prince and private peoplo. They go to
Paris and amute themselves when they like.'
"All her daughters were happy in their
marriages. At that time ber son, Prince
Leopold, was still a boy 18 years of age.
He used to come to his mother during her
lesson. He was a beautiful boy, with tha
features of his mother. He had just begun
to learn Russian. Many of the officers learn
this language in order to be prepared for the
war that they have so long waited for. The
little fellow's visits were much more agree-
abo than thosQ of his f ather T had heard M
much of his brutality that I trembled when
ho came in lest he should show his fierceness
then.
"One of the ladies in waiting had a favor
ite lap dog. One day ho throw acid over it
just to make the lady angry. Such acts were
common on his part, but he stood alone in his
brutality. The other princes were as kind
and considerate as could be.
i "Tho poor princess ran away to her father
once while I was teaching her, but ho prompt
ly brought her back to her husband.
"Tho old emperor knew Frederick Charles'
character, and once remarked in my pres
ence: " If we had not been princes, I could have
been a tambour major, and my brother a
good teacher.'
" 'And Charles?' asked some one.
"'Oh, Charles would have before this
reached the gallows.'
THE TRUE SOVEREIGNS.
"Princess Frederick Charles recommended
me to tho crown princess, now the widow of
Emperor Frederick. 'Uhser Fritz' and hu
wife were tho true sovereigns, and the new
place at Wild park and the Kronpriuzen
palace at Berlin were brilliant with recep
tions, at which every statesman, poet or ar
tist cf note who entered the empire attended.
Salvinl played in tho little Rococo theatre,
at which no actor had appeared once the
dnys of Frederick the Great, and Rossi re
cited for tho pleasure of the brdliant court.
"But while the great new palace was a
scene of almost feudal splendor during the
afternoon and night, it was more like the
home of a well-to-do English family in the
morning. The prince and the princess were
unaffected people, and the young princesses
played around the palace just like other chil
dren. "Their favorite romping ground was the
theatre I spoke of before. It was near the
atelier of tho crown princess m which I gave
her her lessons.
"Sophia, the just married crown princess
of Greece, then scarcely 9 years old, was the
prettiest of the three little girls. All three
had large, curly blonde hair.
"Tne crown princess was painting a picture
of her children's governess, and the whole
family was greatly interested in it. Often
the kind eyed crown prince would como in
to watch the progress of the picture.
"Poor fellow r The disease that killed him
so soon after his accession to the throne had
not manifested itself." San Francisco Ex
aminer. Race Horses astt Steamboats.
I do not know which is the most hazardous
piece of property to own, a race borie or a
steamboat. Your horse may run a mile a
minute, as they say the old Irihh horses did
in the days when they timed them by sun
dials and sand glasses in one day. The next
day he runs through himself, and kp only fit
for soap grease. So with a boat. IShe may
just come off the docks better than the day
she was launched, grod to all apptvrance for
thirty years' service. Sbe runs against a

river gets on a boom, and there you are with
a boat not worth ai much as a pJc of cord
