OffletoJl responsibility in China Is a very
different matter from ollieial responsibil
ity in this couutry. In the i'elcin Gazette
recently itUc governor of the Htuiuu prov
ince reported that some thirty boxes of
bullets, weighing about a ton in all, being
government stores, were deposited iu a
temple at Kai-feng Fu under charge of a
soldier, subject IO inspection twice in
twenty-four hours by a petty officer. The
soldier being very poor—for no doubt Ids
pay was in arrears, as usual witli'Chinese
troops—determined to help himself !•
these bullets, and proceeded to abstract
them from the boxes at various times und
sell them to a tinman, who melted them
down. Iu this way the soldier gradually
curried away the greater part of h.s
charge, and then, seeing the theft must
be discovered, sooner or later, •deter
mined to make it appear that the bullets
hull been carried off by outside robbers,
Iu the middle of the night he took the
empty boxes out and scattered them
about in the street, leaving the temple
door open.
Iu the morning the petty officer came
round as usual, discovered the empty
boxes, and believed, lite soldier's story as
to a robbery having been committed in
tec night. tin reported tho theft to In*
iii uvea ant, t in- Intlcr to the general, w he
invoked tin' niii ol the eivil authoriti,--.
AM soon as they investigated the mutter,
they came to the conclusion who was tin
real culprit, ami he confessed. In the
iket place, the soldier, the actual robber,
is condemned to penal servitude on the
frontier—a sentence nearly, if not quite,
as had as death—and a Hogging of 100
blows. The petty ollieer, who no doula
looked at the boxes twice a day, but d:d
not take the trouble to see whether lla.y
were full or not, is condemned to recciv.
eighty blows and is dismissed the service.
The lieutenant is cashiered in order to a.
t' ied i<4f connivance m the theft, but
disappears, and his ease has been post
poned until he is arrested on one of la
warrants out against aim. Finally, 11,
board in l'ekin is requested todeterniiu
the penalty lo be indicted on the genera
in command.
llcre the chain of responsibility is fol
lowed up to the highest iiilleial concerned
and no one is allowed to say lie had noth
ing to do with it; that n is impossible foi
him to concern himself With such de'.ads
that lie does his best in selecting his sub
ordinates, and does not guarantee tneiu,

HOW TO CLEAN THE WINDOWS IK
THE BEST WAT.
Take a Hrl|hi .l>ax lor It, bat to II
Wirt the Wintowi are In Shade.
CM no Soap and Keep the Water
Warm. Adding Hoasehold Ammonia
to Soften It,
The cleaning (if windows seems to lie a
very easy mutter, yet many housewives
would prefer to do any other part of the
housecleaning than this. As at this sea
son of the your the whole house Is sup
posed to receive a thorough cleaning, the
windows must, to be sure, come iu for
their share.
Never begin this work until all ths
paint is cleaned, but, more especially,
that part about the windows. If the
window glass is done first, it is almost
impossible to wash the paint round it
without smearing l.ho glass.
Never wa-li windows on a damp day,
nil hough a cloudy one is not objection
able for the work. A blight, clear, -iiuuv
day is tile best, choosing that part of ii
when the windows are iu the shade.
Windows washed while the sun is on
tomare sure to be si icaky, no matter
l ow well they may be done, for the sun
dries them quicker than they can be
wiped, ami, ,-uiisequcnt'y,Jthe water dries
jliet us it is put ou by the wash cloth.
Always dust the windows thoroughly,
both inside and outside, before begin
ning to wash them. I' e small, dry paint
brusliesjo get Into crevices and corners
when uu.-tlng
Wash the inside of the window lirst,
and it will be lu.ich < aster to detect any
defect when doing the outside. Take as
much clear water as desired, but have it
as warm us it euti be convenii ntly use I,
without parboiling thebaic!-, and add to
it enough hot household ammonia to
solten it. With soft cloth mat is free
from lint wusli each pane of glass thor
oughly, using u small pointed stick wit.ii
a cloth ori it to go into the corners.
Use old cotton to wipe with, and diy
each puno mimed ateiy utter wu-h.ug.
Where t :ie iva'.er t • quite hot, if the glass
is not wiped i;nmedia-eiy it will dry so
that it will have to be rowa-hed ere
wiping.
Where the ammonia is not convenient,
use clear water, and never, on any ac
count, use soap of any land if you want
your glass to be clear. After washing in
clear water, a nice polish may bo ouu..iicu
by rubbing the glass wit.i tissue paper,
but where aiamoniu is used the lintel
gives a nice gloss without any extra
work.
baking soda on a dump cloth is said to
'••• nice to give the windows a good pol

HI kerosene is recommended by some for
the same purpo-e.

To Prevent Moul in Fruit Jam.
One of the great troubles in preserver
fruit in glass jurs is to prevent the form
ation of mo! ! on top, and the consequent
-.polling of fruit when it rises above the
top of tire syrup. A very effective, cheap
and simple dovieo is a disk of thin veneer
of wood, from one-sixteenth to one
twentieth of an in h 111 i• • u ami from two
and-three-quaner* to three inches in
diameter, for one quart jars, made from
gum, beech, birch, elm or ash, as tics '
woods have no taste nor flavor and will
not injure the fruit.
To use, dip in hot water to prevent
cracking, slightly bond so as to slip in
tiie neck below the shoulder of the jar;
press down on the fruit so as to allow t he
syrup to rise over it. The shoulder w,!i
keep it down and in place. When yu i
wish to use the fruit, remove by ruimii.;
a fork under and picking it out.

" Good morning, Jack I whv I haven't
sceu you for a month past. What in tlie
world is the matter with you ? You seem
to have renewed your youth."
" Well Phil. I have. Don't you reiuem
! her the last time I saw you, how misera
ble 1 was 'I Sick and blue, and in that
sort of mood a man gets sometimes when
lie feels the most noble thing In life is to
J go straight to the devil."
'• Not so bad as that, I hope ; at all
events you didn't go that way, you are
, looking far too happy and hearty."
'• Thank goodness, no ! or rather, thank
; Vinegar Bitters. Do you remember that
; day 1 saw you last, when you recommend
ed that remedy to ine so persistently, and
! 1 wis first vex'(laud then half convinced."
I remember it perfectly, and you
needn't say another word upon the sub
j jeel; your looks tell me that you took the
| medicine."
•• No doubt of it: everybody remarks
upon my improved looks and temper; but
1 must really tell you all about it. I got
the obi style, us you recommended, and
didn't mind the bitter taste at all. I fin
j ished the bottle in about two weeks, and
! was greatly improved, so much so that
! I determined to change off and try the
! new sty I*.
J " Well, how did you like it?"
I '• Yo 1 told me your wife preferred tli
new style, I believe; well, I must say lagrc
| with tier. I like the old style very much
I hut t'oe new is a fitter, smoother, more ex
I pensive p'epar.ition."
j " 1 tieiieve it is; in fact. I have heard
' m, am! 1 wonder the McDonald Drug
Company sell it tor the same price they
lo t.u- o.il style, la-cause it i- really a very
costly pic| aration."
"Well, that dusn't concern us. Mho
; "Vll- it said that people fancied themselves
1 pious sometimes when they were only
| bilious ? No matter.' I was only going to
-ay that 1 believe people often seem wicked
when it is only their liver, or their slum
i nclt. or some oilier cantankerous organ of
■ rtie body -o our of onler ilicy couldn't be
g'M if they tried."
j " And if all Die miserable dyspepsia.
1 and victims of hillou.-iu-ss, headache and
, the ili'Mi-.nid and one ills that tlesti is lieii
to would only take Vitiegar Bitters, what
i a happy world litis would he! "
