IIoiiHeliold Hints.
If you have been pickling or handling
acid fruit and have stained your hands,
wash thom in clear water, ipe them light
ly, and, while they are yet moist, strike a
match and shut your hand" around it so as
to catch the smoke, and the stnin will dis
appear. .
Wot the spots of iron rust on muni in or
white dress goods thoroughly with lomon
juice, then lay in the hot sun to dry. Re
peat the same if the color is not removed
by one application. When dry, rinse in
clear, cold water. Lemon juice cannot be
used on colored goods, as it will take out
printod colors as well as stains. It will
removo all kinds of stains from white
goods.
To remove mildew, make a very weak
solution of chloride of lime in water (about
a heaping teaspoonful to a quart of water,)
strain it carefully, and dip the spot on the
garment into it ; and if the mildew does
not disappear immediately, lay it iu the
sun for a few minutes, or dip it again into
theJiine water. The work is effectually
and speedily done, and the chloride of lime
neither rots the cloth nor removes delicate
colors, when sufficiently diluted, and the
articles rinsed afterwards in clear water.
The white of an egg has proved, of late
the most efficacious remedy for burns.
Seven or eight successive applications of
this substance soothes pain and effectually
excludes tho burn from the air. This sim
ple remedy seems preferable to collodion or
even cotton. Extraordinary stories are
told of tho healing properties of new oil,
which is easily made from the yolks of
hens' eggs. The eggs are first boiled bard,
and tho yolks are then removed, crushed,
and placed over a fire, where they are care
fully stirred until tho whole substance is
just on the point of catching Are, when the
yolk will yiold nearly two teaspoonfuls of
nil. It is in gonoral use among tho colon
ists of South Russia as a means of curing
cuts, bruises, and scratches.
At this season of the year, it is important
for all housekeepers to be on their guard
against the insidious attempts of the vari
ous species of ants and tho detestablo cock
roaches to invade the kitchen and pantries
or store rooms. Sprigs of wintergreou will
make the small red ants leave their cherish
ed haunt. Borax powdered and put into
the crevices whore cockroaches abide will
finally cause them to disappear ; Scalding
alum water is also certain death to cock
roaches. Mahogany.
A West Indian captain, about the be
ginning of the eighteenth century, had
brought to London some logs as ballast for
his ship, and gave them to bis brother,
Dr. Gibbons, nn eminent physician, who
was then building a house. The wood
was thrown aside as too hard for the work
men's tools. Some time afterward his wife
wanted a candle-box. The doctor thought
of the West Indian Wood, and out o( that
the box was made. Its color and polish
tempted the doctor to have a bureau made
of the same material, and this was thought
; so beautiful that it was showu to all his
friends. Tho Duchess of Buckingham,
who came to look at it, begged wood
enough to make another bureau for her
self. Then the demand arose for more,
and Ilondurus mahogany became a com
mon article of trade. '
A Huge Orchard. : ,
At San Lorenzo, Aimed a, California, ex
ists a fruit orchard, on ' of the most its- -ni
ark able of the State, belonging , to Will
iam Wreck. In 1800 he began farming,
and is now tho owner of 2200 acres. 200
acres are devoted exclusively to fruit trees.
Almonds are a specialty, no less than 27,000
being planted. There aro also 233,000 cur
rant bushes 4200 cherry trees, 300 plums
. slid prunes, with additional large numbers
. of apples, ears, peaches, aprioota, oranges,
. lemons, etc. Asa grain grower lie has also
been quite successful, and bis crop of 1872
.amounting to S,00Q oetitals (ouch 100 lbs.) of
wheat and barley.
Warts on Cows' Teatfe
The teats of oows are frequently covered
with these troublesome excrescences to an
extent which render it extremely difficult,
if not iinpufcible, ' the in. I When
this is the ease, prepare a strong solution
of alum water, and give the diseased parts
a thorough washing two or three times
day till the waits isappeau' f'omninn'car
rot juice is also frequently effectual iu re
moving warts ; It should be applied several
limes a flay. Cutting out the warts is a
cruel remedy, and besides it is not always
effectual; but alum water, applied as above,
if persevered in, will effect a certain, speedy,
and radical cure. '
tW To make good Grafting Wax, take
one pound rosin, half a pound beeswax, and
quartet of a pound of tallow" or lard, and
melt tberu together.
A NEW AND COMPLETE
Bible Commentate
In One "Volume, '
By Doctori Jamikhon, Faimkkt and Bunws,
Containing nearly 1000 Pages, and 200
Handsome Illustrations and Maps.
It Is Far in Advance of tbe Older Works.
It U Critical, Practical and Explanatory II I
Vomiiervltout and Comprchewire In It Charon-
. terJI ha a Critical Introduction to each Ilnok
of Ncrlpture, and i by Jar the mot Practical,
NiimeMim, Scientific and Popular Work of the
kind in Uie English Ijanauatia
It has advantages over any other similar
work, In the following important particulars i
1st. Its TiionocanNESs j .'
2nd. Its Modernness ;
3rd. Its Compactness. Tho work l pub
lished in one volume which Is a convenience.
There are no blank spaces, nor is the book till
ed up with unnecessary portions of the text.
It Is whnt Kb purports to bo, a Commentary,
not a Bible. " It is literally pocked," says
Dr. Wiley, " full of good things."
4th. Its Bkkvitt. Dr. Smith, Editor Chi
cago Standard, Bays, " I have in several in
stances seen a scrmou In a sentence."
5Ui. Its Liiiriul Spirit. It Is mare unscc
tarian than any other Commentary. Rev. W.
L. Gaue, of Hartford, says, "The names of
tho authors are a Bill Helen t guaranty against
any denominational traits In It."
(1th. Its ScBirTunAL Rkpriiencrs.
7th. Its Iixusthations and Maps. These
are larger, better, and more numerous than can
be found in any other book of this kind ;
8th. Its Cheapness. No Commentary of Its
size and merit was ever sold for anything like
the price.
The unqualified commendations of this Com
mentary, from the highest sources, together
with Its already extensive and rajjidly Increas
ing sale, have given it a position in the reli
gious world superior to that of any Bimilar
work.
We give a fow of tho many testimonials giv
en In praise, of this most valuable work :
Rev. James MeCosh, D. D., President -of
Princeton College, Bays : " It Is clear, brief,
judicious and eminently fitted to be useful, alike
to pastor and people.
Rev. Joseph Cummlngs, I). 1). L. L. D. Pres.
Wcsleyau University, says i " My first favora
ble impressions of the great merits of your
Commentary have been confirmed upon further
examinations. It presents In a clear and di
rect manner the most authoritative view of tho
meaning of tho Scriptures.
Rev. C. D. HARTRANFT, Pastor of 2d Re
formed Church, New Brunswick, N. J., says :
" I deem It particularly usofuL for the ordinary
reader of the Bible, still more for tho Sabbath
School Teacher, and it would bo a most agreea
ble companion in Family Devotional Exercises,
that aro bo often aimless because of the effort
to awaken feeling without stimulating knowl
edge. A course of Scripture reading through
this Commentary will promote interest In the
truth, by promoting the apprehensions of its
meaning."
Pror. Calvin E. Stowb, D. D., Hartford,
Corni., says : " I like It better than any work
of tbe kind I havo yet seen."
Rev. J. C. Bodwell. Prof. In Hartford The
ological Seminary, says " I have examined
carefully, and With constantly increasing sat
isfaction, this now ana uomprenensive com
mentary. It has been a most pleasant sur
prise to me to And in so moderate a compass so
large an amount or scholarship, and ot lull,
Bound interpretation, combined with so much
of practical wisdom. Sabbath school teachers
will welcome It as a most valuable addition to
whatever other Commentaries they may pos
sess." Rev. A. W. Dkckeh, Pastor M. E. C, New
Bloomlleld,Pa.,says : "I feel fully persnaded in
mv own mind of its Intrinsic value, It being so
concise and cheap, tha- it meets the wants of a
greater number, than any Commentary pub
lished. It it itiKt tlit tMnator buptrintendtntt
and Ttachtrt of Sunday School and all who
wish a correct knowledge of the Bible."
Rev. John Edgar, A. M., Pastor Pres. C'h.i
N. Bloornfleld, says: "I am often asked to name
a Commentary on tho Word of God, more
modern and moro brief than Scott, Henry, Ac,
and I always recommend the above, If a Com
mentary Is wanted on the whole Bible. Families
teachers, and S. 8. Superintendents, ofton find
lttoo much to buy separate works on the dif
ferent books of Scripture. To such I would
say here a good work on all, combined."
Rev. P. 8hkbdbb, Pastor Ev. Luth. Church,
Now Bloornfleld, says, " So far as my limited
knowledge of the Commentary goes, It forces
the conviction on my mind that It Is of more
than ordinary value. It will bo of great bene
fit to the minister In his responsible work, and
of special interest and benefit to the family and
Individuals."
JTho following shows how the work Is receiv
ed elsewhere. Rev. Sam'l Moore, Pastor of
Pres. Church , Tyrone, Pa., says : "I sold 25
copies or tne commentary in about two Lours'
actual work. I sold six copies before rising
from cbalr. People come and ask for It."
340 Copies were sold in three small towns In
New Jersey 100 Copies wero sold in MUtou,
fa.) uo copies in l.ewisDurg, ra.i liu uoples
In Wllliamaport i 100 Copies in Watsontown I
250 Copies In Hcranton.
t9Thls Commentary is sold by subscrip
tion and will be offered to the people of Perry
County, by Rev. W. B. WAGNER, Gen. Agt.,
for Central fenn a., ana ins agents. Mr.
Wagner can be addressed at New Bloomfield,
