Miss LUTIA HARKINS, of Wilkes-Barra, is
viti'ing lier sister, and other friends in To
wanda.
Miss AUGUSTA ROBISON, of Hazleton,
who lias been spending several days in town,
went to Terrytown yesterday.
Wo give place to the proceedings of the
borough legislature, to the exclusion of our
usual variety, to-day.
The game of Fifteen is becoming marvelous
ly popular hereabouts. Evevybody is study
ing over it. GEO. B. NKAL is manufacturing
the mysterious little lozenges.
The Missionary Society of Christ Church
are engaged during the present season
in preparing a box of clothing for the family
of a poor but devoted diocesan missionary,
laboring in an adjoining county. Tabbatha
has many followers even in those latter days.
If you should chance to see this item prior
to the hour, remember tiiat religious services
will he held in Christ church at 4:30 this
afternoon. The Rector will be glad to see
you. His invitation to all is 44 Come with us
and wo will do you good."
It is not generally known, but is neverthe
less a fact, that the Supreme Court of this
state lias decided that the printed figures in
the date of a note cannot be changed. For
example, the IST cannot be changed with the
pen to read 18.S0. All the figures must be
erased, and the correct numbers be written
or printed in.
The following recipe is worth trying for
removing fruit and wine stains, especially
peach and claret, from table linen. If un
colored, moisten with dilute sulphuric acid,
and then rub with a strong aqueous solution
of sulphate or hypliosulphate of soda, or soak
for a short time in a strong aqueous solution
of bleaching powder (calcium hypochlorite),
press out excess of the liquid, and immerse
in dilute sulphuric acid (1 to 10 of water);
rinse in cold water, dip in hyposulphite of
soda solution, and afterward wash out thor
oughly in hot water. If colored, used plenty
of soapsuds and amonia water.
A better way to keep "claret'* stains from
table linen is to keep the vile stuff off the
table.
WHAT TO PUT IN TIIK GAKI>KN.—Of the
many hundreds of sorts of Peas, Beans, Cab
bages, corn, sweet corn, lettuce, potatoes,
tomatoes, beets, carrots, cucumbers, melons,
radishes, turnips, onions, etc.,etc., (each vari
ety praised by its seller.) is an important
question. A right choice of kinds will return
many dollars worth more for the same labor
and expense, even in a small garden. To
help all in deciding, PKTKK HKNDKKSON, the
highest authority in such matters, has tested,
sided by side, over 800 varieties of the above
garden products, and he gives the results in
the American Agriculturist for March Ist.
This number has much other practical, season
able information, illustrated with over 100
engravings, and is alone worth the cost of a
whole year's subscription, which is only §I.OO
or 4 copies for §O. ORANGE JUDD COMPANY,
New York, are the publishers.
PATCH BROTHERS are paying the highest
market price, in cash, for good butter.
