THE HOUSEHOLD.
A PPI.RN AR oob.-Very te*, proba
bly, understand the nutritive value
and the modicinil properties of good
apples. To have them the most valu
able they must be eaten as food, as
part of the meals-not at night, per
haps,lest this last meal or lunch should
be too heavy. The fact that some have
subsisted on fruits for a conalderable
time Indicates that they have a vital
nourishment not yet appreciated by
the chemist. This is a etaple reaIly
the most valuable in use among us.
more valuable in sickness than any or
the foreign fruits, most of which
save the dried-must be plucked be.
fore they are ripe, in order to reach us
before decaying. An since these may
be kept for most of the year. or until
tho early berrAs can be obtained, we
may inler that it has a far wider
range and more extensive use than
such as seem to be Intended for a tem
porary or medicinal use, as one of the
means of preventing, forestalling and
aiding in the eure of summer or hot
weather allments. To have these the
most valuable, they must be ripe-as
well as all fruits-and riot decayed.
The unripe of all fruits, in addition
to the fact that they contain really
less nourishment than the ripe, must
prove injurious to health, from the
presence of acrid Juices, more or less
poisonous. I may add that when the
juice o lthe apple Is preserved, as it
easily can be by first boilling the
sound apples and then bottling or canl
nling, it is rolliy valuable in sickness
-as iuch so as wilaies-thougli, of
course, if well kept, not intoxicating.
since no fruits, in their natural state,
contain taIcohiol, and since the boiling
process arrests the fernentive process
by which It iny be produced. Such
may be used with advaittage in most
eases of proslration, after lurnishing
aill needed nutrition and yet not tax
Ing the digestive process, as such
juices, like water, en ter the circulation
without the usual disgestion.
LixS ir TUM TEA Kv.TmA.-Every
good housewlie knows that an Iron
kettle used for heating water that.
holds lime in solution, will lit a short
thne become coated with that sub
stance. This being a poor conductor
of Ileat, it will of course take a longer
Lilie to heat the water than whet the
kettle is iew. Copper or tin vessels
do not become coated with lime. The
reason is that iron has an illianity for
lime winch the other metals have not.
But tills alliiLty cani be overcomne by

Having had numberless inquiries fot
advertis1ng cards from ladies In all
parts of the country who are interest
ed in the prevailing fashion of making
"Card Collections," we are having
printed for them a set of seven beauti
ful cards each in six colors and on a
gold backgr'ound, in the-very highest
decree of art, iliutratingShakspeare's
"Seven Ages ol Man," We have spared
no expense in these cards-they are
simply little art gems. Our only aim
has been to publish the finest cards yet
shown. Applications for them have
come in so rapidly that nearly the
whole edition Is engaged before the
receipt by us of the cards from the
artist. We have therefore been obliged
to adopt the.following plan for the dis
tribution of the remainder: No more
of the gilt Shakapeare cards, seven in
the series, will be sent excepting upon
the receipt of a statement from a grocer
that the person applying for the cards
has bought of him on that day at least
seven bars of Dobbins' Electrio Soap,
with price paid for sane. All apply
Ing in thi manner will receive the I ull
se& of seven cards gratis by wail. This
will insure us that our friands and pa
trons get theitr share of these beautiful
designs, although It In no matnuer re
pays us for the costof the cards. Your
grocer has the soap or wili get It, atnd
tae purchase by you of seven bars of
it at one time will secure for you gratia
seven really beautifui cards. The soap
improves with age, and is an article of
necessity in your house every week.
Therefore you are not asked to buy a
useless article, but one that you must
have any way. Please send us your
application at once, and tell your lady
friends making "Card Collections," to
do the same. Urocers do ntot have the
cards to deliver. Buy the soap of them, 1
send us their bill, and we will mail you
the cards free. Yours respeutfully,
1. L. CnAMN & Co., 116 South 4b
Street, Phtudelphia, Pa.4
P. O.-Ladies not wishing to buy
soap can get the cards by remitting
cost price, 25 cents
A TEXAS paner syeaks of the late
"George Eliot" as "a very gifted but
very Immortal man." To which an
other paper replies: "Yes, poor old
fellow, lie had his weakness; but as a
pugilist he stood unrivaled. England
will not soon forget his celebrated
Mill on the Floss."
IN a theatre in this country some
time ago a disappointed man in the
audience threw a goose's head at an
actor. The latter came to the foot

"Gentlemen, I precelve that one of
you has lost his head; but he necel
have no fear; I am willing to return
it to him at the conclusion of the per
