HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS. TO PREVENT PICKLE? FROM MOLDING. The best way to prevent pickles from molding iu the cellar is to set the jars upou blocks, so the air can pass under as well as around the jars. It is a good plau to cut pieces of writing paper tlie ize of the mouth of the jars containing preserves, apple-butter, or nuythiog likely to mold. Grease the papers well aud place within the iars right on the contents. The mold will forai on the top of the paper, and can be removed with it without loss ot any part of contents of the jar. ?Boston Cultivator. REMOVING STAINS. Rtool stains are best removed by soaking in cold water three or four hours, then wash with soap in cold water and expose to the sun, or boil in water containing a little soda. Hust, iron, colTce aud mildew stains can be removed by washiug first, then soak ten or fifteen minutes in chloride of lime water; a t iblespoonful of chloride of lime dissolved in a pint of luke warm water, and strained carefully into a pail of water is about the right strength,then riuse well aud expose to the sun.?Detroit Fret I'rt&s.

A company has been formed in New South Wales for the purpose of exploit ing the manufacture of railway brake shoes from compressed leather. Waste leather acraps are steeped in a solution and subjected to a hydrruli" pressure to mold them to any desired shape. The leaUwr shoe is said to possess distinct ad vantages over that of iron, with superior cfflcioncy in every way. The leather shoe weighs pounds against 21+ pounds for iron, and will wear three times as long. More than this it has a greater coefficient of friction, so that forty pounds air pressure is as effective as seventy pounds with iron brake shoes. There is one pre-eminent benefit which the introduction of the leather brake shoo would confer on communities which j are subjected to the necessary evil of the elevated railroads. They would thus be: spared the dangerous showeaof iron par-1 ticles, which now injure so many eyes.

What an Indian Can Stand. -To akow what an Indian can stand when he has to, I may tell of an incident which happened during the winter I was with them. Toward evening on q very cold winter day, wheu it was snowing just a little and drifting a great deal, an Indian came to the log house with a jug half full of whisky and with hit rifle. I imagine the jug had been entirely full of tmnkv when lio started, and by the thndjj&M|to the house he was in ** *'***flHS|^yUtion. The jug and the riflewBBPreen away from him, and he wm^H^Kd to get to his wigwam m as quick as be could before darkness camo on. He left, and was supposed to have gone to the camp, but early next morning his squaw appeared at the house and said he had not come home that night, and as the night was cold she had been anxious about him. Then the search for the lost Indian began. Ho was found ia one of the sheds near the barn under a heap of drifted enow, and tho chances are that the snow that wa3 above him had helped to save his life. The searchers for the Indian had gone in diiTcrent directions and it was his own squaw who, with true Indian In stinct, had tracked him out, and she was alone when she found him. Apparently the Indian was a frozen corpse. She tumbled him out of the suow bank and dragged him down to the creek, where a deep hole was cut in tho ice for tho purpose of watering tho cattle. Laying the i Indian out on the snow, sue took *h? pan that was beside the hole, and, filling it ropcatcdly, dashed pailful after paiful of ice water over the body of the Indian. By tho time tho other unsuccessful searchers had returned she had her old man thawed out and seated by tho fire wrapped up iu blankets. There is no question that if lio had been found by the others, and had been taken in the house frozen as he was, lie would have died.?Detroit Free Vrets.
