A skirt stretcher which could be placed inside tho skirt, and which would adapt itself to the proper size, would supply a long, felt want. New York Commercial Advertiser. TO SPONGE CLOTH. AH heavy wool cloth for gowns, cloaks or jackets should be sponged before cut ting. This prevents shrinking in damp weather and the showing of spots of water. To sponge cloth, cotton cloths, preferably pieces of sheets, are wrung out in cold water and spread smoothly on the right side of the goods till it is entirely covered. The goods themselves are then rolled up and left twenty-four hours with tho damp cloth in them. Care should be taken that the damp cot ton is free from wrinkles and that the rolling 'is even, else the wrinkles" will print themselves in the woolen cloth and are difficult to remove.

THE DAUGHTER OF AN EMPEROR.: Senorita Josephine Iturbiic, the youngest -daughter of the Mexican Em peror Iturbide, died a few days ago in the City of Mexico. The lady was born in the year 1812, anl wa3 eleven years old when her father was banished from Mexico. After his return to Mexico and execution in 1824, his family was granted a pension. Owing to the attempt of Maximilian to restore- the Iturbide dy. nasty, the Mexican Republic stopped the pension over twenty yeara ago, and Princesse Iturbide, the only surviving child of the Emperor, has been living all these last years in straitened circum stances. . Captain Frank Mullins, a large hearted and chivalrous Irishman, years ago attached himself to her fortunes, and has served her with a fidelity and single heartedness most rare and notable in this prosaic age. Her death leaves Don Au- gustin Iturbide the only surviving rep resentative of the family in Mexico. He is a grandson of the first Emperor and the son of an American lady.

An article by Mr.'Bryden in the last Prooeedings of the British Zoological Society says that the days of thq giraffe are numbered. A few year3 ajro a herd of seventy or eighty of them were pfteu met in various parts of Africa; Mr. Bryden says that nineteen giraffes are now a larse herd. Thev have been hunted so mercilessly, both by "natives and foreign sportsmen, that they are rapidly becoming extinct. ' " ' Tha intelligent African King Khama has, however, taken the giraffe uuder his protection and hopes' to save it from extermination. He has forbidden tho hunting of the giraffe in his large do main, and in this way he hopes they will multiply in his country. It is an inter esting fact that Russia has preserved tb European bison from extinction by setting apart a iorest of .Lithuania for them and permitting no one to molest them. Recent explorers in- Southwest Africa say that the fauna ha3 changed greatlj during tne last thirty or fort v veara Dr. Henry Schlichter, in a paper he reSi belore the liritish Association a few weeks ago, says that antelopes, lions, buffaloes, rhinoceroses, giraffes and othei large animals which were met with it abundance when the country ; was first explored are no longer to be ffound in any part of Southwest Africa oh accouat f their ceaseless slaughter by European i t ti i . .)

It is a very common habit, but a great mistake, to mend gloves with silk, as the silk will cut the kid more than fine cotton thread, thu3 showing the mend far more plainly. For the same reason, according to a correspondent of the Housekeepers' Weekly, it will not hold the edges of the kid so firmly, but instead will cut through in time. You will no tice that all kid gloves are sewed with cotton- thread. The manufacturers understand the difference in the material and use the most satisfactory. Thread of all shades, especially put up in twists for glove mending, can be bought for a trifle. If a, glove is badly torn or ripped. try to match its color with a. bit ot suk. Lay this under the torn part and baste it carefully down in small stitches that do not show on the right side. Then draw the rip up as carefully as you cad, tak ing up very little of the kid as you ao so. iNeat giove mending is a nice art, and worthy the consideration of every economical woman.

The New York Agricultural Exper iment Station has for the past three years successfully combated gooseberry mildew, by commencing to spray as toon as the young leaves begin to untold, and continuing at intervals of from eighteen to twenty days, except in case of heavy rains, when it is necessary to spray more often. The fungicide used is potassium sulphide (liver of sulphur), one half ounce to one gallon of water. By using hot water the sulphide will dissolve more readily. Commercial liver of ' sulphur costs but from fifteen to twenty cents per pound, and one gallon of the solu tion is sufficient to spray ten or twelve large bushes if applied with a force pump. The ammoniacal solution and the bordeaux were also effective.

A dainty pincushion is in the shape of a sofa, writes a correspondent. The foundation is cut out of cardboard The pieces are sewed together, the head being higher than the end piece. Before the pieces are put together they are cov ered. The one that I saw was covered with crimson plush; a puffing around the edge was composed of crimson silk and finished with a narrow gold cord. Where buttons would fasten down the seat of the sofa pins were used instead whiteheaderi ones. The legs cf the sofa are on four large-headed pins, whose heads form the feet. At the head of the sofa is a little emery cushion of silk stuck full of many colored pins. At the foot is a bolster made of the plush, which is also a receptacle for pins. I intend mak ing one of the pretty articles, but I shall turn my sofa pillow into a needle book and fill tho bolster with emery powder. Of course any combination of colors can be used in the construction of this unique pincushion. I shall fix the seat of my sofa so that it cm be raised, and. inside thread and thimbles cau be kept.

THE CHEAPE8T FEEDIXQ MATERIALS, I Linseed cake is the staple food with, many farmers. It is not improbable that this article will advance beyond a rea sonable price, and the farmer should cast about to see if there is not dome food which can be bought so as toi ; pay him' better. A good linseed cake is the best food for general purposes, because it contains a fair- proportion of the differ-1 cut forms of feeding niatter that ani mals require; and one of its great fea tures is the oil, a substance not strongly' represented in grain and pulse, j It is only; because the feeding constituents are well' balanced that it is preferred to other foods, and if other foods are mixed so asi to possess the same properties equally good results are obtained, j The oil isj the chief difficulty, but that may be easily arranged by buying the, linseed in-; stead of linseed caWe, for then the whole of the oil is obtained. Linseed contains about four times as much oil as linseed cake, so if in making a mixture we bear this point in mind, tho most difficult portion of the problem will 'be solved.) Of course, the linseed oil must boj crushed or soaked. To supply the al-j buminoid matter which is found in thd cake we have to turn to the pulse crops ' beans, peas, lentils, maize and barley. 4 Mark Lane (England) Rcires. A snail has 30,000. teeth.

Briefly stated, the plan consists in subsoilinj narrow strips, say about two rods in widths, through a field and planting tho crop across the strips subsoiled. Then note the differ ence in yield caused by the subsoiling. According to a more recent reoort the theory and practice "of subsoiling has been thoroughly aud practically tested at Medicine Lodge, Kansas, during the past summer by the United States Govern ment on grounds leased at that place for experiment purposes. About forty acres were plowed and subsoiled to a depth of eighteen inches and planted to cane: Another piece of ground was plowed the ordinary depth, but not subsoiled, and also planted to cane of- the Bamo variety. Both fields received the same care and cultivation. The urounds which were subsoiled yielded about eighteen' tons of cane to the acre ; while on tho' other tr round, simnlv nlowod. the rwst yiel l was only about ten tons. Nr. Mohlcr, the Secretary of the Stat Board, recommends that farmers who in-i tend to sow alfalfa should by all means; subsoil. If the soil is upland it is all; the more important. This plant sinks' its roots down from five to ten more feeti into the subsoil, provided the hard and diy condition of the subsoil allows. It; is this deep rooting which enables alfalfa! lo endure the severest drough, hot winds! or any other calamitous thing that comes! along. When a good stand of this plant is secured, it will last for a generation orj more,' Tielding valuable crops each year.' New York World. : . ; j j FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

A member of the company of actors at a Prussian theatre was to have a benefit night, and the question was how to get together a good audience. Accordingly, some days before the eventful evening, there appeared in all the papers an ad vertisement to the following effect: "A gentleman, who has a niece and ward possessing a disposable property of $15, 000, together with a mercantile estab lishment, desires to find a young man who would be able to manage the business, and become the husband of the young lady. The possession of property , or other qualiRcationS is no objeet. Apply to " Hundreds upon hundreds of letters poured in in. reply to this advcitiscment. On the morning of the benefit day each person wno had sent a reply received the following note: "Tho most important point is. of course, that you should like one another. ' I and my niece will visit the theatre this evening, and you can just drop in upon us in box No. 1." As a matter of course the theatre was crammed. All the best paying places in the house were filled in the evening with a public mostly male, got up in a style seldom seen even at the royal opera it self. Glasses were leveled on all sides in the direction of No. 1 box, and eyei were strained to catch the first glimpse ot the niece when she should appear in com pany with her uncle; but uncles are pro verbially "wicked old men," aud, in the present case, neither uncle or niece was to be found and the disconsolate lovers of a fortune were left to clear up the mystery as best they might.
