Japanese Magic Mirrors.-The nitagle irrors of Japan have recently been tracting attention in England. ''hese irrors are usually circular, from three iches to twelve inches in diameter, ado of bronze, and with a bronze %ndle covered with bamboo; the re 3cting face Is more or less convex; ratett with a mercury amalgai, anti te back Is beautitfully ornamented ith a gracefully executed ralsed de gn. Some for the rustle population ive also polished letters. Tile pol lied rt ilecting surface when looked at tows no trace whatever of the design t reliet on the back, but when a sun an, or other bright light, Is rellected omt the surface on a screen, there is en on the screen an image of the ised pattern consisting of natural jects, geometrical figures, or Chinese m1bols signifying "long life,'' "'iap ness," etc. The explanation of the agle of these Eastern mirrors arlses, )t from a subtle trick on the part of e maker, nor from inlaying of other etals, nor from hardening of portions stamping, but from the natural -operty possessed by certain thin 'ioze of buckling under a bending ress so as to remhaili strained in the >posite direction after the stress is re oved. A nd this stress is applied partly r the megebo, or "distorting rod," and tily by the subsequent polishing, hielt lu an exactly sliilar way tends make the thinner parts more uvex than the thicker. The mirror iika very high in Japan, and takes .e place of the cross in Roiait Oath ic couniitries. The "two-great-divine thices" at eso, containing the yata no ryo mi. the first iade mirror, have lin e eyes of the Japanese the same mi rtance as has the Holy Sepulchre for e Greeks and Armenians, or ttccca r the Moiomedans. 'rhe mirror, erelore, constitutes the most Iport It part of the regalia of the Japanese vereigiis. The miytliical origin of e mirror Is thius explained; When xis alone Inhabited the earth the sun ddess one day hurt Ier hand with !r siuttle, havl:g been suddenly ightened by a p..tutical Joke of her other, the god ot' the sea. She indig iutly retired to a cave. Darkness llowed, and the goddess had to be peased. 'I'he wisest of the gods sug sted making an image of her more autiful than herself. The Japanese ulcan fashioned a mirror lit the shape the stin, and all the gods laughed id shouted, "Ilere is a deity who sutr ses even your glory.'' Woman's riosity could not stiand this. The ddess peeped ont, nail while admir g herself in the anirror was caught id dragged out by a rice rope. The ttionit traditions have it that this i-goddess (A initterasit o iml Kiuul), tdiug her adopted grand son, who ts also the great-gr,uduiather of the 'st lEiipero: of Jupan, to subdue the mrbd, inadr him three presenti:s the lyvi-tliaili (the a reciuts stone (emblem ical of' the sytrit of woman), the ord (einbleniatical of the spirit of tim), and the rlirror (emnblem of her vih soii (.

V'itANI APPARE.L.--Bonnets shoild not be allowed to lie around and gather c dust; but, after being taken from the fa bead. should be dusted off, and the bows o and trimmings straightened, and then e laid away in their appropriate boxes. s, if the feathers seem limp and slightly a uncurled, sometimes holding themi over n the hot air of an open register will re- I store them. Vells, neck-ribbons and it cravats will also keep fresh much longer if carefully folded up and laid a away under a weight sutllelent to keep c, them in place. Soiled ribbons, in most colors, can be restored by washing in alcohol and water, and, instead of being Ironed, smoothed by being stretched tightly upon i board, held ii place by plus, andl wiped gently with a soft handkerchief once or twice in drying. Shoes are among the things that pay fi for the care that Is taket of them. Upon taking them oi do not leave them el in the shape of the foot, but smooth them by stretching out the wrinkles si and bending the solea. straight. If y buttons are lacking, sew them on fim- n mediately, and if other repairs are needed, have tlhom attended to at once. If the heels become worn down on one 0 side, let them be straightened without y delay, or the shoe will take an ugly or ti permanent twift. Gloves, with many It ieople, are the objects of great abuse, which is a great mistake, because to be v. well-gloved contributes very much e toward . lady-like appearance, and tut- al less one can ail'ord a constant procession al of new gloves it is desirable to keep the b old ones in order. When they are g taken off they should not be rolled up together in a lump, as is the custom 1) with many, but they must be pulled w and stretched lengthwise, and laid y away in a box, like new gloves, wilth- a' o.tt any folding. They should also be kept repaired, for if rips on the linger si ends ire neglected they soon get so large that in mending them it Is impos- it sible to restore the proper shape of the n lingers. When they are soiled they tl can be cleaned at home as well as at a 1 professional cleaner. Wash them in I benzine, rubbing and squteezinhg them o as freely as if it was cotton. Rinse it thema ii cieam benzine (if very dirty ti they will have to be rinset several nS time,), wipe off sotne of the moisture with a soft ilannel, and hang then 3 over the stove to dry. The heat will a dissipate the odor of the benzine much Si sooner than exposuro to the air.

Mr. Wm. J. Androws, of Columbia, Tenn., writes the following : a Me%-rs. NivsTAurn & Co., Now York : (iKra"T-For upward of 20 years I have been aliieted with the Piles. When I first took them they wore blind and very painful. For about ten years they continued as blind. then commenco bleeding. The hemorrhoids con tinued to increase until I was losing at every stool fully a gill of blood, and frequently, while standing at my dosk,the blood would run down into my boots. I have had theso hom orrhoids to last for several hours. In the meantime, like a drowning man, I was grasp ing at everything, trying to find relief. On one occasion I hand them cauterized, which, after inteneo suffering for over a month, effected temporary relief, for ashort time only however. About ten months since, while at stool, my eye fell on an advertisement headed in large letters, "Piles," "Send 2 cent stamp and get circular." I did so and received a few "Plain Blunt Facts" in reply, after reading which. I concluded it was such plain common senso that I would give "Anakesis" a trial. I did so and the result was, that aftcr a few days use, the bleeding ceased and I have not suffered a moment's pain since. It is said that "a fellow feeling makes one wondrous kind." So, knowing quite a number of friends who were suffering like myself. I distributed quito a number of them, and from every one re ceived a favorable report. I would not be without "Anakesis" for a hundred times its coat. To all who are alicted with Piles I would say : "Give Anakesis a trial and you will no longer be a sufferer." Wu. J. ANDRRWS.

If the family contains a brother with any taste for earpentry he had better be ap plied to. Knowing the strong views boys generally entertan against dolls I and doll houser, [ make this suggestion with (iflWdence; but there are soft hearted momtents, aid long- wet holidav afternoons, and prudent sisters will avail thomselves of these circumstances in furnishing thelr houses. Ta'bles and chairs are easily made, even by amia teur carpenters. If neatly done, it will be sufficient to paint the legs and backs to imitate whatever wood is de I sired ; varnishing Is a sticky and smelly operation nad hardly one to be recom mended to young folks who have any regard for their own frocks or their parents' carpets. If, however, the carpenter has not planed his furniture suliciently smooth to take the paint kindly, many defects' in construction -can be concealed by covering the legs and backs of the chairs wl.l paper pasted on. Extremely pretty chairs can be made by covering the wood with strong gum, and then laying cut straw regularly side by side upon it till the chair is covered. Rice can be siailarly applied, but is apt to drop off after a time, while the straw lats for years. Tables can be painted In dice patterns, or covered with paper or velvet or' cut straws. We once saw a very pretty ef feet produced by pasting small scraps ol'glazed colored paper in a pattern on a table; it looked like wood inlaying. Pictures look well on a table, but they require varnIshuing over. Sofats with out armns can be made out of any small box ; tiurn the box bottoma upwards to form the sent, sew a p)iece of card against one sidIe to form the back, and cover~ the back and seat first with a thin layer of wading, theni withj silk, velvet, or chlitz. *iatDeal Gently with the Saitnen. i h thing to sot it right.
