A FEW DEVICES SOMEWHAT OUT OF THE COMMON RUN, They May Happen to Frighten I'eople Who Are Not Burglars, bnt There Is No Peubt That Most of Them Art Calculated to Bear Kvery Time.

"Thnt'i all well enonh for yonr doors, bnt how about the windows? A thief can open one of these new fnngled catches by poking a table knife np be tween the sashes, as easy as you'd any scat," "Bat that wouldn't opon our win dows. John has bored holes slanting in through tho window casing into the saNhes and pnt long iron pins in tiiem. It is just na if every window was nailed fast, and a burglar, to get in, would have to out away the whole sash. " "Did any of yon ever try newspa pers?" asked anothor. "No? Well, lot me assure yon, from my own experience, there is nothing better. Lay one or two dry newspaper sheets in the lower hall and pin a couple on the stairs. It is im possible to step on them without mak ing a noise that, in the stillness of night, would surprise you if you never tried it before. And you can't pick them up or fold them or slide them out of the way or step over thorn without more noise. As for (he ones on the stnirs, they are simply the thief's despair. My husband Inughed at 1110 when I firt put them down, but within a week, as it happened, their cfllchcy was proved. 1 was awakened one night by tho rustling of paper in the hall below and awoke my husband. We lay quiet and listcnod. Presently there was another rustle. Then a long silenoe. Then more rus tling, and as the sound of it died away we could hear somebody swearing in a whisper. It was so funny that my bus band burst into a roar of laughter, and the fellow down stairs Jerked the front door open and fled. " "I don't think scaring a burglar away ia enough punishment fur him," oommcnted an eldorly woman. "He ought to be hurt somehow. Mr. B. thinks so, too, and his 'warm welcome for the uninvited' if something that, as be says, 'just about fills the bill ' The bolts on our front door and the aro light before it free ns of all apprehensions of attack from that direction, bnt twice our house was entered by petty thieves through the back door, which faces a dark garden and is in the shadow of a Tine oovered porch. The second time inspired Mr. B. with an idea. At one side of the door, about the height of a man's faoe, he fastened to the wall a springy bamboo cane, with a tin cup wired to its free end. During the day it can be turned up on the wall out of the way, but at night, when he sets it for business, it is sprung out about 1 feet and held there by a short stick and a figure 4 trigger so set that opening the door will trip it The tin cup, I omitted to mention, hold a good ounoe of cayenne pepper. "For a month after Mr. B. rigged that oontrivance np nothing happened, and he was getting low spirited over the neglect of th burglars to take note of his new invention. Then, one night, the sharp 'spang' of the oane against the wall rang sharply all through the house and woke us up. That was fol lowed immediately by language on the back porch fit to make yonr blood run oold. We got to the window in time to see two men in the garden, one leading the other, who was howling and swear ing terribly. We fancied that some of the pepper had got into his eyes. Before Mr. B. could get his pistol they had disappeared in the shrubbery, and we have not been troubled since. " "That trigger, set to go off when the door was opened," remarked another woman, "reminds me of a horrid thing my hiiHlmiut linniKlit lioiiin Willi hliii friiiii n trip out went hint year.

There is no longer any nnoortainty in regard to tho permanency of the official record ink adopted for use on the state records and ofiloiul documents. As the ink stands in the ink well it is of a deop greenish tinge and looks not unlike a wri ting Quid. It seems hardly thicker than a fluid and flows smoothly and easily from the pen. While still damp on the paper it shows the same greenish tinge that is apparent in the ink well, but as it grows old on the paper it takes on a deep black and has a smooth and clean out appearance, without being glossy. After it has been on the paper a minuto it is only faintly smutched by vigorous rubbing with the moistened finger, and if allowed to become old on the paper can be wet thoroughly with out being effaced. The secret is that the Ink eats directly into the surface of the paper and oannot therefore be removed withont destroying that surface. There is no danger that the ink will become brown after it has been on the paper or book for many years, for the brownish tinge ia given by logwood, and no log wood ia used in the reoord ink.

The pnllbenrors are to linn up and witness the final closing of thn grnvn. All tho funeral arrangements nro to bo in charge of another friend, a woman, who shall comfort the family and see that chumps keep away from tho house ; that brown ies bo not permitted to "sit up with thn corpse."

" Sho shall also detach cards from these pretty remembrances and presorve them for tlio family. The colllu it shall not be called a "casket" must not wear the appearance of a floral bargain counter. That mossgrown title head, "Tho Last Sad Rites," must mil appear over the newspupor accounts of the funeral, and having donn this lust kind sorvioe in fairly good English uud short sentences city editors are requested to turn again their attention to life and the beautiful world, leaving tho dead man to make his own way across the dark river. Kansas City Htiir. Car Faros and Illeycllng. A now rider with a now whool is at airy and imaginative as tho traditional boy with his first pair of trousnrs. Uns of the now rider's most langhabln hal lucinations is that by purchasing a whool ho haflbooomo economical insteud of extravagant It is customury to hear the new rider dofoud himself from the charges of extravagance in the purchusc of a bicycle by tho deolurutiou thnt hi will, by use of it, soon suvo in cur fare; alono more than tho wheel's cost Lot no man doludo hiuiNolf with any such idea. Supposing it wore possible for him to rido a bicycle to and from his work ooch of tho 800 working days in the year und suoh a supposition is away boyond tho probabilities in the case he would storo np in carfare sav ings but t30 per annum, at which rate it would take just throe yoars and fonr months for him to garnor tho $100 pile his wheel bad cost him. Thorefore such arguments are fallacious, and should at once and forever be abundonod. Don't hide behind a subtorfuge to weak as this carfare allegation. Bo hon est with yourself and the world. Say it right out, so all may hear you, that you have bought a wheel because yon want to ride one, beonuse of the pleasure it gives and the widor scope it gives yon when an outing is possibla If that is not sufHoient to silonoo those who criti cise yon, leave them to their ways and go yours awheel, satisfied that your in vestment in a bicyole yields yon never failing dividends of health and happi nets. St Louis Globe-Democrat Boat oa tho Wlros ol a Piano. The appearance of rust on the tuning pins and the steel wires of a piano it a sure indioation that the piano has been exposed to moisture or dampness. The time of year or the age or quality of the piano has nothing to do with it as rust may appear in a night The fact that the room is heated by a stove just out tide of it will probably aooount for the rust, at the chances "are that after the usual cooling of a fire overnight its heating in the morning would be likely to cause condensation on the metal, and rust would immediately appear. Do not use oil or any greasy substance to re move it It will probably not do any harm unless it causes the strings to break, in which case they will have to be replaced. Most pianos require tuning twice a year. The only important care to be given piano ia to keep it in an even, dry temperature. Ladies' Home Journal.
