cannot be cured. 'I'he best reitedy I N

it the llavot can be held. Never extract, fi
till it is capped over is the only sate s(
rule. 'Tne more comb yot give the t

to see coiEb honey that bas soured. in
After you have extracted, place in open
ves.els ; never seatl it up. I have noti- [)
ed good honey put in Mason jars, h)
wlhtih stood sealed tiup, and when op- St
ened it had a sour sulell, and had lost 01
some of its llavor. 'lhe best thing 1 i
have found to keep honey in Is tini tar- b;

you never need to strain it, as all imt- Ct
pttrities will come to the top. Alter r'
this skint ever y three or Lour days, ti
several times. That which you can o1
take off can be placed in another vessel Pi
and treated the saue way ; but It will A(
never be as nice as the ilrrt. Now ti

something ttttractive, somothiiig that itI

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

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.

"ANAKEBIS"
Its A u Infallible Cure for Piles.
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."

Furniture for Dolls' i1ounes.
Tables and chairs can be made of
card-board, but they are hardly dura
ble enough for the (loll house. 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.
