that ho intended to destiov himself,

teiiliiy nfternoon delivered the first of
her Fetles of twelve lectin es on "Do-,
tnestlc iJconoiny." Vciy properly In
her first lectin e yesteid'iy she consld
ci 1 the home ns a wliol". Her lecture
was subdlvidrd in the folluv Iiir man
nci: What Is demanded of the house
kteper; ktcpliiK the hous.' in a sanitary
condition; beninnliiB at the foundation:
wood-work and painted walls: caie of
llnrrs In back p.ut of the house; ollinjj
haul-wood ilon.
"The slmi'lest (leflnltlon of the teim
'Iioinestlc lCionoin: ,' " said Miss Par
Inn, after .1 few pielimtuaiy lemaiks
or rather practical talks, "Is the man-
nm ment ut Ihe home. Vlitn one looks
at the mailer stiloutly the lesponsl
blllly of the liome manager Is almost
appalling. It is I.ugely In her power
to make or to mar the physical, mental
and moral chaiacter of those under her
(Ii'sikc In no other profession aiv s.
manv demands made upon one Indiv
idual." She dwelt upon the real dignity "f
the houscketper'b position when light
ly understood an 1 said that it Is a
rntliir common opinion that house
kc'lilni? nairows a wonnn, It do
nanow sonic but It should make wo
man lirividet and s-eetcr than she
could be In nny other sphere. Health is
essential to liaiiidncrs and Rood work
and the spenki 1 urmd the nece?sltj of
pure air, propel food and a cheerful
ami reposeful atm sphere and laid
much stress upon tnc methods of clean
ing and keeping clein the cellai ana
back pait of the house,
ADOPT POSITION OP HOUSE.
"One cannot tilways choose the posi
tion of the house , when possible It
'iiould stand on well drained land and
have the sun in cvprv part. Sun and
pure air nro two of the most helpful
aids in KeepliiK a house in a healthful
condition. Next conus an abundant
supply of pure vvuter.
"Having 'he house and surroundings
in ns favorabl" a situation as one's
lircumstani'i will permit, the next care
Is to keep it In a Military condition.
If 0110 understands how, and each
member of the family will do his oi
lier haio, this Is not a dllllcult mat
ter, paitlculaily In these dayr of high
studded, well-lighted cellais, nml so
much' hard-wood llnish throughout the
house. In no part ot Hip house is theio
great"!- necessity for constant wateh-luliK's-s
than In Ihe cellar. It should
be thoioughly cleaned twice a vear.
"If the suds f 10111 the washing are
not thoroughly rinsed fiom tubs, palls,
wrlngeis, etc., a dlcirieiablo odor will
1111 the laundry and finally pepetiate
to th other parts of the house. 13 very
at Hole used in the washing of the
clothing should be thoroughly wnshed,
ilnsed and wiped,
"fiom the collar we come to 'the
.kitchen, pantiles, dlnlng-ioom, etc.
These rooms nud closets should be well
lighted and nlred. Nothing that holds
odois, such as woolen carpets or dra
poties should fin m a pait of the fur
nishings of these 100ms. The walls
of the kitchen ai d pantiles should elth-ei-
lie painted or lie covered with a
washable paper. The woodwork should
be of the natural wood varnished. The
lloois are somethlnsr of a problem.
White boards are exceedingly attract
ive when in good condition, but such
a lloor requlr l Infinite care. A hard
wood floor pic fly oiled is quite satis
factory, so If well-painted and var
nished lloor. Oil cloth makes a clean
attractive covering and one that is eas
ily cared foi, but I would never us?
it, it Is so cold for the feet. Linoleum
Is a mo.st Fatlsfactoiy covering, It Is
soft, elastic and warm.
SPOTS ON FLOORS.
"Spots on painted lloois, oil cloth or
linoleum yield quickly to strong soaps
and Fcrubblng-buifi), but It Is not only
thi ellrt which comes off, but, also the
paint, 'nil one "eon finds bale spots
nil o ?r the tlooi. Ammonia and soda
vvh?n iwil without discretion nie even
more fatal to paint than soap.
"The hard wood lloor, properly oiled,
If quite satlsfactoty, but It badly done
It Is a constant source of trouble. The
oiling of the floor must generally be
done In the evening after the work for
the day Is finished. Sometimes this
oiling Is done by a member of the fam
ily, but quite ps often one emplovs n
painter who Is uccustomed to this kind
of woik. No matter who does the nil
lug theie aie tlueo things upon which
the success largely depends First,
tint the lloor be absolutely clcan nml
that there be no lloatlns dust In the
room; second, that the oil be of th.
light kind .Mid In the proper condition:
third, that the oil bo thoroughly rubb?d
Into the boards, Wiving a perfectly
smooth sin face. Dolled Unseed oil dlles
more quickly than tho raw. A little
turpentine In the oil maices It less
sticky, so it Is well to add It. It must
be remembered with tho oiled lloor as
with all sut faces; the more highly pol
IslK'd it Is the longer it will keep clean.
Fo haul rubbing with 11 dry flannel
cloth Is most important.
"When about to oil the floor have tho
kitchen walls, celling, vindows, etc.,
thoroughly bruih"d; sween and vvuah
the lloor, not leaving a particle of stain
or dust and wiping the boards perfect
ly dry: th"n mix together two parts
of bolbd linseed oil and one part of
turpentine; wet a llannel tloth in this
mixture and begin at one end of tli
room, taking two or three boanls at a
time. Rub luird with the oiled cloth,
nlwnys iiibblnir with the crnln of tho
he (ml. When all Is done have tho
room for ten or more hours.
PAINTED WALLS.
"Tho wood wuik and painted walls
of the kitchen and surroundings are
Ilko the lloois, of"ton spoiled because of
Ignoraneo and caieltisnoss.
"Varnish and ralnt are softened by
strong scaps and alkalis; as a mle thu
vnrn'fh on natural woods wlll tequlro
no other cUiuilng than u. rfcrrd nibbing
with a woolen tloth v. itfng out of
warm wntT. It should thon bo rubbed
with a piece of dry llannel. If very
much soiled nrcuml the door-knobs a
llttlo whltlns or oap may bo tubbed
on Ihe cloth.
"The wulls of tho kitchen nre a llttlo
more c'lfucult to ti'eot; for the burfaco
of r lister Is not to smooth as that of
woll-ilnlshod wood und ixiturully
Mu.ni, dust and nioke ellni; to tho
rougher nnd more porous substance.
Hnnp, ammonia or whiting must be
used on the walls; whiting Is the host
for the paint, but It takes moro time
to do the clciinlnu thnn It either soap
or atnmorila Is used. If Bonp be em
ployed It must bo In tho form of suds.
Snap should never be tubbed on tho
I'lolh. except wheto there nre stains
that cannot be removed In any other
way.
"If whiting be used have tltrco pieces
of llannel and two palls of wutm water,
llnve the wliltlnt,' In n fcatircr; wilutf
n small piece of llnnncl out of warm
watei nnd dip It In the whiting and rill)

Mas Recovered His Speech Again, After
Being Alu'.c lor Over Six
Months.
The following dispatch under n
Wllkes-Haire date line came by As
sociated Press last night:
One of the most wonderful and marvel
ous re 'ov nil's of the age comes fiom Mich
igan und it concerns a young man who Is
well known ill the Wvomlng valley. Less
than n e.u aso Pled Kelly, who resides
bitween Avoco. and Mooslc, and who was
a bartender at Urennan's saloon in this
citv, was alllleted In .1 peculiar manner.
He Went to bed one night r.nd on ailsing
the net moinlng he had lost his speech
entirety. He could heur plainly enous'i,
but lie could not speak, try ns lie would.
He consulted the best of physicians and
was sent to tho hading hospitals In Neiv
York and 1'hlUi.k'lphla, but all to no
avail. He was then taken to some hospl
tul In Michigan, where, after live months'
treatment, lie has recovered his speca
and is improving right along. Por four
dnjs he laid In a comatose state like one
dead. He could neither hear nor ne, nei
ther could be movo a muscle, or take food.
An opetuttoi' was then perfoimed upon
his throat and luckily It proved success
ful. He began to Improve ut once and in
lfss than a dny his sight and hearing re
turned and likewise Ids speech. He aroso
ns though awakening fiom a drecm and
has been steadily Improving. He will re
turn home in a few weeks.
Kelly It will be lemembered came up
fiom Plttston one night last winter and
took a room nt tho Grand Central hotel
on Lackawanna avenue. He went to
bed In his usual health but woke up
In the morning devoid of the power of
speech. Dr. Kearney, of this city, was
called to attend him and treated him
for several weeks, but without avail.
Hypnotism was brought Into play but
this failed like the ordinary treatment.
Finally Kelly lost his sight and as he
was then helpless it was decided to
remove him to the Lackawanna hospi
tal. The stall' at the hospital agreed
with Dr Kearney that Kelly's organs
were unimpaired and that It was onlv
his will power that was nffected. Two
t'ays after he was taken to the hospital
his sight leturned. liy vailous strat
egies he was convinced that his sight
was all right nnd he finally saw. The
doctors said that 'a time he would le
oover his epeoch In like manner and
their prognosis proved correct.
Kelly's strange ailllctlon dates from
six years ago when he was struck In
the neck with a hammer. He then
lost his speech, sight and hearing for
ten days but fully leeoveicd.

Just Simply Cnllcil IN-Colonel
Sanderson Pays Ills Respects to
"Itizonor" in n Very Spicy Letter.
They Claim They Will Kloct n Cit)
Solicitor Tonight.
The Democrats of councils claim to
have the necessary twenty-two votes
and wilt tonight make un effort to
elect McDonnld city solicitor. Yester
day tho following notices were distrib
uted among the coiincllmen by Com
moner Flanaghun, of the ISIghth:
Scranton, l'a May 1S'J7.
To, etc.
The law provides that the eoun-lla or
Die city of Scranto'i shall In Joint conven
tion 011 the second Mfiulny In April, 1W7,
or un soon thereafter as practicable, elect
a city solicitor. The said councils met in
Joint convention and adjourned on said
.1 f t - - :..
it rcwuru ui ?o,uu 1U1 1U
the conviction of any pt:r-
t
date rnd faMed to elect a city ollcltcr as
mpilied by law. It Is now deemed prac
ticable by 1110 and a majority of ttie said
convention lo meet and elect .1 city to'.lcl
tcr. You nro notified that there will hi a
meeting of the said joint convention held
In the regular place uf meeting in tho
municipal bidding In Ihe City of ricranton
on Wednesday, May 5, 1SJ7. at S o'clock
p. m for tho puiiose of electing a city
solicitor.
(Seal.) James G. Ualley, Mayor.
The mayor seeks to bolster up his
unprecedented nnd cleaily Illegal ac
tion In calling a "joint convention" of
councils by arguing that the law bear
ing en the election ot a city t-olicltor
Is mandatory; it directs that the elec
tion sh'all be hold 011 a certain date or
as soon thereafter as practicable; It Is
now shown to tho mayor that It is
practical at this time to effect an elec
tion and ns it Is the statutory duty of
the mayor to cause "the laws and
ordinances to be enforced" he Is bound
to summon the councils to proceed to
the election f a city solicitor.
THI3Y WILL NOT ATTKND.
Ot couiso the Republicans will not
attend the meeting. They do not rec
ognize the authoilty of the mayor to
call a "joint convention of councils"
nnd are positive he can show no au
thority for so doing. lie mny call a
joint meeting uf councils to transact
any particular business or any gen
eral business but nowhere In tho stat
utes is he glveil authoilty to summon
a joint convention.
The Ifepubllcan leaders after hear
ing rf the call got together last even
ing and iHcided to pay no heed to it.
Air. Torrey was consulted ind he said
that for lus part he would not care
to go Into tonight's convention if he
had an assured victory In slgh't as he
would not consider as legal an election
obtained at such a notoriously Irregu
lar meeting.
Just why the Democrats arc so fond
ly assured that the election Is at pies
ent "practicable" Is of course religious
ly guarded. There were wild rumors
allout duilng the day thnt they had
secured the support of three Republi
cans. Milder reports had It thnt tlb'y
hnd two RcpubllciPB sure. Still milder
but equally preposteious stateniea
were to the effect that they had f
one necessary vote. Various members
were mentioned as the probable desert
ers, but almost In every Instance the
report differed. But that It would be
highly Impolitic to mention rames the
absurdity of the3e reports could be
shown on the face of them.
WANT A LEGAL TANGLE.
The Republicans ne ot the opinion
that the De-moctats ice) certain defeat
or at all events no possibility of bieak
Ing the deadlock and in anticipation
ot the Republicans eftectlng this result,
have lesorted to the desperate extreme
of getting up some kind of a legal
tangle and trust to the one chance In
a thousand of winning out through the
coin ts.
President George Sanderson yester
day addressed the following unmistak
able letter to Mayor Halle :
To Hon. James G. Ualley, Mayor ot tho
City of Scranton.
1 herewith return your communication
purporting to be a notice that tho Joint
convention for electing a city solicitor will
convene on Wednesday, Mnv 5, at S o'clock
p. m as a unique specimen of arrogatlon
of a prerogative that has no shadow of 11
1 cstlng plnco on you. I would preter to
regain it as an archive, but tho presump
tion is somewhat more than I can bear.
As conveying an intimation of authoilty
in you it Is worthless. In my term as pres
ident of the Joint convention I take this
means of notifying you that you h.wo
no power le;?al or otherwie to call tho
convention together. As soon as organ
ized it became n Independent body and
subject to no control but Its own und In
pursuance to thut control It has ad
journed till tho llrst Monday of July and It
will stay adjourned. That nny member of
It has eased his conscience (?) so as to
give a majority one way or other counts
for little ho cn only cast his vote when
In pursuance, of a regularly adopted mo
tion, Tho joint convention meets on tho
date to which It udJournd.
