What is Alabastine!1 A. Alabastine is a durable coating for walls and ceilings. Q. Is it the same as kalsomines? A. It is entirely different from all other preparations on the market. Q. Wherein does it differ from these kal omines on the market? A. It is made from a cement that goes through a process of setting on the wail, ana grows harder with age. Q. What are kalsoinines made from? A. From whitings, chalks, clays or other inert powders for a base, and are entirely dependent upon glae to hold them on the wall. Q. Why do kalsomines rul< and scale? A. Because the glue, being animal matter, decays in a short time by exposure to aif and moisture, and the binding qualities of the material are then gone. Q. Does the Alabastine contain any injurious substance? A. Alabastine has been most carefully tested, and is recommended by leading sanitarians throughout the country, on account of its sanitary nature. Q. What has the same investigation shown regarding wall paper? A. Sanitarians condemn, in strong terms, the use of wall paper for walls of living rooms, on account of the poison used in its manufacture. Q. Can anything but plain work be done with Alabastine? A. Any kind of work, from plain tinting ^ Cftll be I ( *-? bUC UIVSV VtUMVl MW uwv. ? ??0 dose. Q. How can I learn to do this work and decorate my house? A. By writing the AJabastine Company, Grand Rapids, Mich:, for book of instruction! and suggestions, and illustration of stencils; also showing six sets of tinted wall designs, sent free.

RACES OF THE SOUTH PACIFIC ARE VANISHING. Tasmanians Practically Wiped Out ?The Maoris Following?Island People Becoming Kxtinct? Causes of the Decimation. GRAY - HAIRED, lYHi black woman in J L Tasmania, calling L\\ A herself Fanny \\Vji 'jg\t Cochrane Smith, claims to be the last survivor of her H It ' unhappy race. f She is able to IfJl/r \V cite extracts from I Hi//' U ??c'a^ papers of /VJIBl yv co'ony? p"Dted *^a'?^?ppyr > \i long after the total \i* i i extinction of the Tasmanians was announced to the*world, in which she is referred to as a pure blood aborigine; and Parliament, in 1882 and 1884, voted her grants on account of her unique position as the sole survivor of her race. A few men in this country and Canada are now striving to prevent the American bison from becoming extinct. The endeavor reminds us of the efforts of the whites in Tasmania to save the remnants of the race they had annihilated. In 1803 between 6000 and 7000 natives dwelt in the valleys of Tasmania. All that were left of them in 1847 were twelve men, twenty-two women and ten children. In vain did the Government build them comfortable houses, Bupply all tbeir neeas ana give mem leacuere. The race was doomed, and one by one the few survivors perished. ? MAORIS IN T Other peoples in the Pacific and elsewhere are approaching the fate of the Tasmanians. Here and there it is the liquor and the diseases introduced by white men that are decimating them. In Tasmania it was the shotgun, pure and simple. The natives were not guiltless, though they suffered many wrongs. Their implacable hostility stirred up against them a war of extermination. The number of "crows" each had killed came to be the common boast among the whites. The following incident illustrates the utter heartlessness with which, as the long straggle went on, the overmfto+aro^ TtTOru UKUIV1 V/U &IUVATVO II V?V |/WkHMVV?l One day a crowd of idle whites saw a native boy watching them at a distance. 'Let's have some fun," said one of the men. Taking an empty revolver he pointed at his own head and repeatedly, pulled the trigger. The men laughed J and the lad drew nearer, much interested in the performance. "Now you do it," they Eaid to him, as they handed him a loaded revolver. The boy blew his brains out, and this was what the white pioneers ( of Tasmania called "fun." The fate of the Tasmanians was a j warning to anthropologists. The natives dwindled and disappeared before they had been intelligently studied; we hare little accurute information about them. Contradictory statements are made even as to their religious notions. Some rooms at Hobart and other towns are " 1) f TO i vakaoka chief. filled with their handiwork. So these people, flourishing as they were when this century came in, have vanished before ite close, leaving scarce a trace to show that they ever lived. The Maoris are going the same way, though not by violence. When the whites first came among them their number was estimated at 120,000. They have been dwindling gradually, and figure in the New Zealand census of 1886 as only 41,969 souls. It is noteworthy that children's diseases, such as whooping cough, introduced among the Maoris by Europeans, are fatal alike to infants and adults. Pulmonary complaints have made large ravages. But their greatest enemy, unknown before the coming of the whites, is drink. Women rival the i men in their devotion to the flowing bowl. Mr. Verschuur, -who studied the Maoris in 1889, says their chief felicity is in getting drunk. Another traveler says he saw a native on a hotel veranda one day loudly lamenting that he was not beastly drunk, though he baa swallowed thirteen glasses of whisky. Children of tender jears follow the shin ' ' ing example of their parents, and boys of five or six years are often seen with pipes in their mouths. Nothing, apparently, can stay the ravages, due to the "blessings of civilization," which, with each recurring year, are making the "**" +hart hpfnrp. juaurib icso uuuiciv^ ~~? www* ?'amjf%' A SBMI-CrVILIZBD MAORI QUEEN. Let us turn to another phase of depopI ulation in the Pacific. It is a wellknown fact that the practice of head hunting has more than held its own. Among some of the lesser known islands it has increased. It amounts to a sort of a craze in many an island that is still given up to the most heathenish practices. Of course cannibalism is associated with it, but many Islanders start on war eipeditions for heads alone, and natives of the Solomon Islands have told travelers that there is no felicity in life iJ HE IB CANOE. equal to that of acquiring fresh heads with which to adorn their tabu houses. The British in North Borneo are waging war on the practice and execute every native they convict of the crime. If we were to visit other parts of the world we should see that the same inevitable destruction that is overtaking the Pacific Islanders awaits many another native race and largely on account of the lutru&iuu UL UiU nuvoc uiuucuuc and customs they cannot be subjected to and live. It is only a few weeks ago that we beard that the natives of southwestern Terra del Fuego, estimated in Darwin's day at 3000 souls, now barely number 300 or 400. We should see, also, in some districts, where natives are treated with the greatest kindness and everything possible done to promote their welfare they are disappearing, not through extermination, but by absorption. In Greenland no liquor can be sold to the natives. No sailor can land on those shores.unless he can show a clean bill of health. But Caucasian blood mingles in greater quantities in the veins of each generation. Not an Eskimo pure blood can be found in Greenland, except among the Arctic highlanders of Smith Sound or the new-found natives on the east coast.?Chicago Herald. Licorice. The most of the licorice so useful in medicine and so dear to every 6mall boy's heart comes from Asia Minor. The plant belongs to the order of leguminosa and the genus glycyrrhiza (Greek glukus, sweet, and rhiza, a rcot) and is a herbaceous growth, with stems four or five feet high and perennial roots, which are frequently several feet in length and more than an inch thick. We have a native licorice which prows on the shores of Lake Erie and is found even more abundantly farther West. It tastes strongly like the foreign licorice, and if cultivated might be made equal to it. We import from 50,000 to 80,000 pounds a year, valued at from $80,000 to $1,600,000.?American Farmer.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS. TO PRESERVE EGGS. Not long since a railroad float loaded with freight cars containing a vast quantity of fresh eggs was sunk in the waters ? * Kotr Atf fVifi Pofffivv Wnrlr. \J1 LUC U^/pci L/C*J , Wii. HUV ^uvvv.j, K V4ning upon this subject a witty paragraphist attached to a New York newspapei remarked that although immersed ia salt water the eggs would undoubtedly b? sold for fresh. Whether he knew that his statement was one of truth or not cannot be ascertained, but the fact remains the same that the eggs were unimpaired when the float was raised, and were undoubtedly put on the market as such. Speaking of the occurrence a wholeBale dealer in e/fgs gave the following recipe for preserving them fresh for an indefinite period. It is as follows: "1 ? ? ? ?4-mA ninfa 10 eauu paiilUl Ul no n? u pim.o | of fresh slacked lime and one pint of common table salt. This should be well mixed and poured into a barrel until it is half full of the fluid. The eggs to be preserved should be put down is the mixture. It is said that they will re. main fresh for two years or longer, if desired, care being taken to keep them well covered and to replenish the fluid if it should be depleted by evaporation.?

Ewing; and it is so highly commended by physicians of eminence for its hygienic virtues in many diseases that every nurse and housekeeper should know how to make it. *1 have found the following to be an excellent formula for koumiss: Dissolve about two-thirds of a halfounce cake of compressed yeast and two tablespoonsful of granulated su?ar in a quart of warm milk. Pour that into a bottle, leaving at least an -inch space at the top; cork tightly, fasten the cork securely, shake well, then set the bottle where the temperature does not exceed sixty degrees. Let it remain at that temperature from eight to ten hours; then lay it on its side in an ice chest or refrigerator, and in from six to ten hours more it will be ready for use. Bottles that have self-fastening stoppers are the most convenient to U9e in making koumiss, but the corks can be fastened in .without much difficulty with either twine or wire. I have made very excellent koumiss quite frequently by letting the bottles, when filled, ' stand from eighteen to twenty-four hours on the cellar floor, -? ' a-J a. j Where the temperature am not exceea fifty-five degrees, then laying them on their Bides in the same spot and letting them remain undisturbed from twentyfour to forty-eight hours. Less sugar and yeast can be used if desired, but the proportions mentioned have always given me the most satisfactory results.?Chicago NewB. DESSERTS OF ORANGES. Now that oranges are cheap and plen? tiful, they should appear frequently on the table. An exchange suggests several good ways of using them in desserts. Orange Pudding?Cut two oranges in small pieces and remove the seeds. Place in a Drettv dish and sprinkle with sugar. Bring a pint of milk to a boiling point, add the yolks of two eggs well beaten, two tablespoonfuls of cornstarch diluted with a little cold milk, a a little sugar and a little salt. Btir until thick, pour over the oranges when partly cool. Make a meringue ot the whites of the eggs lor the top. Orange Charlotte?Line a mold with sections of orange. Soak one-third of a box of gelatine in one-third of a cup of water till soft. Pour on it one-third of a cup of boiling water. Add one cup of sugar and the juice of a lemon. Strain tAA a nnnfnl ftf npontro iiiiPA Tallin OUVA OUU. a wupim 1 r and giated rind. Cool in the refrigerator or a pan of ice water. When the jelly begins to harden, beat till light, then add the whites of three eggs which have previously been beaten stiff. Then pour into the mold lined with orange sections, and put on the ice until serving time. In preparing the cupful of juice and pulp be careful to rcject all tough tissues, using only the clear juice and pulp. Orange Baskets?Take as many oranges as desired, and cut them the round way, just in the middle of the orange, all the way round, except two pl.ices about one-fourth of an inch wide, on opposite sides. Then cut this narrow strip the other way, so as to have perlectly round baskets with a handle. Carefully remove all the pulp, fill these baskets with orange jelly, and place green leaves in the dish with them when served, and you have a very handsome dessert. To make the jelly, soak half a box of gelatine in half a cupful of cold water until dissolved. Then add one cupful of sugar and the juice of one lemon and three oranges, and one cup of boiling water; strain, and when partly cool turn into the "baskets" and put on the ice to cool. Orange Chocolate Creams?White of egg, same quantity of orange juice, grated rind of the orange, a few drops of lemon juice, and confectioners' sugar enough to make sufficiently stiff to roll into small balls. Melt some chocolate, sweeten with powdered sugar, flavor with vanilla, and roll the balls in this. Orange Cake?Four cups of sugar, two cups of flour, one-halt cup of water, yolks of five eggs and the w kites of three. One and one-half teasponfuls of baking powder, juice of a large orange, and a little of the grated rind. Frosting for Cake?White3 of two eggs, juice and rind of an orange, and sugar enough to make it stiff. Orange Pie No. 1?Grated rind and juice of two oranges, four eggs, four tablespoonfuls of sugar and one of butter, and one pint of milk. Bake with only one crust and meringue for the top. Orange Pie No. 2?One cup ot sugar, one-half cup of butter, one-half cup of cold water, whites of three eggs, two cups of flour, two teaspoonfuls of yeast powder, juice and pulp of an orange. Bake in three jelly tins. Make a frosting of the yolks of the eggs, juice and grated rind of an orange, and powdered sugar to make it stiff enough to spread. Spread on each layer, put one above the other, and frost the top. Orange Pudding?Soak a cup of bread crumcs in a quart of milk. Beat three eggs till very light, add a cup of sugar, a small piece of butter, the juice and grated rind of two oranges. Add to ,this the soaked cm iibs. Turn into a buttered pudding dish and bake in a hot oven.?New York Recorder. A MOST GRAPHIC STORY. It is Taken Direct Iron* Real Life. CHARMING NEW ENGLAND LADY TELLS HER EXPERIENCE BOTH ABROAD AND IN AMERICA. The unwritten romances of life are more wonderful and far more interesting than the most vivid works of fiction. The one we are about to relate occurred in real life, and is both interesting and instructive. " - 1J A Til an -Airs, oennie nay lormeriy nvcu il uui Chester, N. H. Her home was pleasant, her surroundings comfortable. In the year 18S0 she visited England, and while in thai country began to experience strange sensations. At first she attributed them to th( change of climate, but they continued anc increased, until finally, like many aoothei woman, she became utterly discouraged. It was while in this condition that Mrs. Ray returned to America and her home. Thousands of women who read thi6 story can appreciate the condition in which Mrs. Ray then was, and sympathize with her suffering. Two prominent pnysicians were called and endeavored to do all in their power for her relief. In spite, however, of their skill Mrs. Ray grew weaker and more depressed, while the agony she endured seemed to increase. It was at this time that a noted physician who was called declared Mrs. Ray was suffering from cancer, said there was no belp, and told her friends she could not live more than a week at the farthest. And here comes the interesting part of the storv, which we will endeavor to tell in Mrs. Ray's own words. She said: "Unknown to all these physicians, I had been using a preparation of which I had heard much. I did not tell the physicians because I feared they would ridicule me,and perhaps order its discontinuance. During all the while that the physicians were attending me the preparation was steadily and faithfully doiDg its own work in its own way, and I had faith in its power. At last the doctor said there was no use of his com* ing, for he ooulddo me no good. I had suf* fered so much that I was quite willing to die, but it seems I was nearer relief than I knew. One week from the day the doctor last caiiea a imse growtu, uh uu n <u> a , cup, and which looked as thougn it had been venr large, left me. I sent for a doctor, ) and he declared it was a fibroid tumor, but said he had never known one to come away of itself before. I immediately began to gain health and strength, and I unhesitatingly declare that my rescue from death was due solely to tbe marvelous effects of "Warner's Safe Cure, which was the remedy I took unknown to the physicians,and which certainly rescued me from the grave. It i( xny firm belief that many ladiee who are said to die of cancer of the womb are cases like mine, and if they could be induced to use Warner's Safe Cure they, like me, might be saved." The above graphic account is perfectly true in every respect. Mrs. Jennie Ray is now living at 142 West Sixth street, South Boston, Mass., and if any lady doubts tha above statement she can address Mrs. Kay, who will gladly answer all questions or grant an interview of a confidential nature to any lady who may choose to call upon ner. it is s&ia tnat "trutu is surau^ci wu flctioD," and when the thousands of suffering, helpless women who are upon the road which physicians say leads only to death, consider the story as above giveD, there is reason for hope and joy, even although they may be now in the depths of despondency and misery. To sucn ladies the above truthful account is willingly given. Largest Olive Orchard In the World. The largest olive orchard in the.world belongs to Mr. Ellwood Cooper, of Santa Barbara County, California. Mr. Cooper purchased the land occupied by this mammoth grove of Oriental trees away back in 1871, the entire orchard, includiug the portions of it which are devoted to the culture of English walnuts, Japanese persimmons, almonds, etc., comprising 1700 acres. The orchard now has 10,000 olive trees, 8100 in full bearing, the remainder being young trees set out during the past year and a half. Besides the olive tree there are 3000 English walnut trees, 10,000 almond trees and about 4000 other fruit and nut tree9. The 10,0U0 olive trees yielded 40,000 quart bottles of olive oil last year, which found a ready market at $1.25 per bottle; the nut trees bore thousands of bnsheli of nuts, to say nothing of the Japanese persimmons. Taken all in all, it has been calculated that Mr. Cooper's orchard brings an income of not less than $800 per acre every year.?St. Louis Kepublican.
