FREELAND, NOVEMBER 23, 1893.
A people's soup ki'chen has been
opened in the dreariest section of
South Canal street. Soup, bread and
meat are served for 1 cent, and every
thing is neat and clean. Three hun
dred Jewish ladies have undertaken
this charitable work, ten of their
number superintending the work as
waitresses each day.— Chicago Stan
dard.
Peter E. Smith, of Philadelphia,
one of the sergeants at arms of the
house of representatives during the
last session of the legislature, will be
a candidate for common council in the
twenty-ninth ward of that city.'
Smith received £7 a day during the
entire session and never performed
an hour's work, says the Harrisburg
Patriot.
The souvenir Columbian coin seems
to have been as great a failure as the
special postage stamps. There are
still half a million souvenir half dol
lars on storage in Chicago, and the
managers of the fair are in a quandry
to know what they shall do with
them. There never was any reason
why the public should want either
the coins or the stamps.
The Philadelphia Jieeord calls upon
its readers "to furnish it with all the
authentic information they may pos
ses in regard to the movements of a
certain political conspiracy known as
the American Protective Association."
It denounces the order as bigoted
and sectarian, and says its oaths arc
such as the spirit of American liberty
utterly abhors and condemns.
Up in Monroe county, in the town
ship of Eldred, at the recent election,
out of a total vote of 15 4 only two
were cast for the Republican state
ticket. For many years, says the
Philadelphia Times, the Republican
voters of the township have consisted
of only four all told, but this fall only
two turned up. Iu Middle Smith
field township, iu the same county,
out of a total of '2!l(i votes only eleven
were cast for Samuel Jackson, Re
publican, for state treasurer.
We can write by electricity, can
Bond pictures and designs by the
same agency, and talk to our friends
at a distance by means of the electric
wire. When the British Association
visited Newcastle, Eng., says the
Chronicle of that city, I'rofesßor Ber
ry told his auditors that seeing by
electricity was a possibilty of the fu
ture, and be had shortly before drawn
a picture of scientific achievements
which would enable friends divided
by large continents and oceans, not
only to talk with each other, but to
look upon their features.
The great strike of the English
coal miners has finally ended in a vic
tory for the employes. Throughout
the trouble the men acted in as order
ly manner as could be expected from
more than one hundred thousand
people. They had the sympathy of
their fellow-workers everywhere, and
did nothing to cause public opinion to
bo against them. Their willingness
to submit their case to arbitration
showed they thought their struggle
against a reduction of wages a just
one, and by presenting a solid front
and persevering they have won tho
greatest labor strike of the year.
The report that the ways and
means committe of the house will
submit a proposition to raise revenue
by a tax upon incomes is tho basis of
much discussion now throughout the
country. With several newepapers
we notice they parade an income tax
as the ideal mode of raising revenue
—easy, sure and not harmful to those
who would pay it. As a revenue
raiser it might be an improvement on
the tariff system, but it would un
doubtedly place a premium on per
jury. It would Ire eaiser to collect
and would not bo felt by those who
hayp incomes, because they could
shift the tax to those men or things
from which the revenue is derived.
It is a step nearer direct taxation, but
would not alter tho social conditions
of the present. The discussion, how
ever, will bring out clearer the advan
tage of a tax upon the values of land.

CONVENIENT COTTAGE.
How to Build an Attractive Farm
house.
Cointa to Bo Considered by Those In
tending: to Cut Up a Home—Arrange
ments Calculated to Lighten
the llouHewife'i* Labor.
To build nn attractive home on i
new farm site requires considerable
careful thought, writes D. Coming's, in
the American Agriculturist. To so
place the house that it shall be convcn- !
iently situated relative to the highway,
and to have it a central retreat from
the farm labors, is one problem;
another is to have the house well
grouped with the outbuildings, and
possessed of a character pleasing to
the eye and in harmony with the gen-

eral landscape. A very plain exterior,
when well screened by old trees or re
lieved by varied natural surroundings,
will pass criticism and be more home
like in aspect than when in the midst
of a treeless prairie, the monotony of
which is only broken by its one divert
ing object, that will always receive
closer scrutiny than when the house is
i set in pleasing surroundings. The de
sign shown in the illustrations is for rv
I farm or suburban cottage, which shall
I have a tasteful outline from any point
of observation, and at the same time bo
compact and comparatively simple in
form. It will stand gracefully alone, I
or become more cozy with the yearly
growth of trees and shrubbery. The

main building is thirty-three by thirty*
six feet, covered with a hipped roof,
with various minor projections, as in
dicated in the engravings, and of the
size shown by comparing with the scale
given.
The interior is divided into well-ar
ranged rooms, of a spacious, symmet
rical appearance. By taking a posi
tion between the two front windows of
the parlor, the suite of rooms in view
may become as attractive as one de
sires, with proper judgment in decora
ting and furnishing. On either side '
of this room an open partition, with
grille and portieres, separate, it from
the conservatory filled with plants on
the right, andthe reception room, af
fording a good place for the piano, on
the left. Jn the corner is a mantel
fireplace, and a similar one in the sit
ting-room beyond the folding doors,
with a corner closet or cupboard oppo
site, forms a baj* of the three large win
dows. At the left side is a large closet,
while at the rear is a small sewing
room, shut off by folding doors, with
another closet. This room may be
used as a bedroom, and, in connection
with the sitting-room and the reai
bedroom opening out of it, will make
a convenient family suite of rooms on
this floor.
From the front of the house, a broad
hall opens out upon the spacious porch;

PLAN OF SECOND FLOOR,
the hall and the reception room at its
right being lighted by colored glass
windows. At the left is a good-sized
dining-room; broad stairs lead to the
second floor, and at the rear is a door
into the sitting-room, and a cut-off
passage leading to the kitchen anc 1
stairs to the basement or cellar. These
stairs, being narrower than those
above, afford space for broad shelves
in the stairway, and also for a china
l cupboard in the corner of the kitchen
j near the dining-room door, which opens
! so that it cuts off much of the noise of
the kitchen, and closes the view en
tirely. The dining-room lias a fire
place, and the kitchen range is placed
at the same chimney, with boiler, sinl<
and tubs arranged along near the win
dows. The kitchen has two dark
closets, and in the corner of the house
is a large pantry with two airy win
dows.
An entry affords easy access from
the rear porch to both kitchen and pan
try, and has a large, dark storage
closet by the side of the back stairs,
which lead to the second floor. lp.
stairs arc four bedrooms, with plenty
of closet room, besides a bathroom over
I the kitchen, a storage closet over the
pantry and an alcove over the parlor.
The bedroom over the sitting-room,
i with its alcove, closets, and the adjoin
j ing bedroom make very comfortable
family quarters. The plan of the roof
is indicated by the dotted lines, and is
high enough for a ventilating loft
above the chambers. The outside eel- j
lar entrance is near the rear porch at
the corner of the house. If the con- j
servatory is not desired, it may be j
easily left out of the plan, and an an- I
gular wall and staircase in the hall
will be less expensive than the curved
style; the reception-room being thus
closed off from the parlor, leaving
! space farther back in the hall for a
direct parlor entrance. [Our illustra
tion Fig. 1 presents a perspective view
of the front of the cottage. The plan
i of the first floor is seen in Fig. 2 and

LENGTHENING LIFE.
What the Liberal Use of Water Will Do
for Mauklnd.
Dr. It. 11. Dalton says that, although
to suggest that methodical use of cold
water as a beverage in the absence of
thirst as a means of augmenting the
| chance of longevity may render a man
liable to be dubbed a crank, if not a
lunatic, the idea has a soundly physio
logical origin and is well supported by
I experience. Solid and dry as the hu-
I man body appears, water constitutes
! more than one-fourth of its bulk, and
j all the functions of life are really car
ried on in a water bath, and, although
the sense of thirst may he trusted to
call for a draught of water when re
quired, the fluid can be imbibed most
advantageously for many reasons be
sides merely satisfying thirst. In the
latter stage of digestion, when com
minution of the mass is incomplete, it
is much facilitated by a moderate
draught of water, which disintegrates
and dissolve? the contents of the stom
ach, fitting it for emulgence and pre
paring it for assimilation. Hence the
habit of drinking water in moderate
quantities between meals contributes
to health, and indicates the fact that
those who visit health resorts for the
purpose of imbibing the waters of
mineral springs might pi'ofit by staying
at home and drinking more water and
less whisky. Water is the universal
solvent of nature and the chief agent
in all transformations of matter. When
taken into an empty stomach it soon
begins to pass out through the tissues
by an osmotic process into the circula
tion to liquefy effete solids whose ex
cretion from the system is thus facili
tated. Very few people think of the
necessity of washing the inside as well
as the outside of the body, and he who
would be perfectly healthy should be
as careful about the cleanliness of his
stomach as that of his skin.
PRETTY EXPERIMENT.
How to NLtlcn Use of llottlos Whose Necks
Have Been Broken.
Here is an experiment by-which you
may make some use of a bottle whose
neck is broken. Pour oil into the bot
tle until it reaches the point at which
you wish it to be cut clean through.
Then place it upon a table and plunge
suddenly into the oil a redhot poker.
You will hear a snap, and then per-
ceivc that your bottle is cut regularly
TIIE BROKEN BOTTLE,
through, level with the liquid which
it contains.
You will thus transform a broken
bottle into a presentable vessel. A
notched* glass may thus be trans
formed into a new one. Ily removing
each time a part of the oil and by cut
ting the bottle every time in the man
ner shown, you will get a series of
glass Hugs curious to behold.
A Homemade Barometer.
A barometer which is said to be re
liable may be made by filling a com
mon wide-mouthed pickle bottle to
within three inches of the top with
water. An ordinary olive oil bottle is
then inverted and placed within the
mouth of the pickle bottle as far as it
will go. In fine weather the water
will rise into the neck of the flask
higher than the mouth of the pickle
>ottle; in wet or windy weather it will
fall to within an inch of the mouth of
the flask. Hefore a heavy gale of wind,
and at least eight hours before the
gale reaches its height, the water has,
it is said, been seen to leave the flask
altogether.
A lilg Shower or Meteorites.
Of the 14 huge masses of meteoric
iron which fell on a spot less than 04
square miles in area near Fort Duncan,
Mexico, the largest is bee-hived shaped
and is buried five feet in the soil and
rises four feet above the surface. The
recond mass in point of size has been
i I .^ ovt ' ( ! the National museum at
I Washington. It weighs over 4,000
j pounds. The other 12 pieces weigh
I from iiTJi to (150 pounds. The whole
muss of fragments us mentioned above
are scattered over an area of il l square
miles, with Fort Duncan at about the
center of the point of dispersion.
Hucaramanqutna.
The name in the headline is that of
j a new species of fibrous mineral re
cently discovered by Huuor 11. Elvoy
j Valenzuola in the United States of '

able properties of asbestos and is per
fectly transparent as well as incom
bustible. It can be reduced to pulp
and molded into light lire and water
proof boards and shingles for houses,

I ed to papermaking, and that it will
also tie used in the manufacture of ear
