''The women have a new use for vasel ine,"' observed a Fifteenth ?treet drug clerk, as he jerked his thumb over his right shoulder in the direction of a well dressed lady who was leaving the store after having" made a purchase of the pe troleum compound. "What's that?" "They are using it on their shoes now." "On their shoes?' "Yes, and the ladies must be given credit for havinjr made a valuable discov- cry. The ingredients of vaseline have a wonderful effect on tine leather and it is fast taking the place of all the com pounds manufactured for softening the f,hoes. Take a pair of shoes that have become stiff and uncomfortable by con stant wear in the rain and apply a coat of vaseline, rubbing it in well with a cloth, and in a short time the leather becomes as soft and pliable as when it is taken from the shelves of the shoe dealer. Yes, indeed, this rainy weather has caused uite a boom in the vaseline trade. Wash ington Pout. A GIRL S TOILET TABLE. A sensible girl will not keep a lot of cosmetics and drugs on the toilet table, but there are a few articles she should al ways have in a convenient place. She should have an array of glass-stopped bottles containing alcohol, alum, cam phor, borax, ammonia, and glycerine or vaseline. A little camphor and water may be used as a Avash for the mouth and throat if the breath is not sweet. Pow dered alum applied to a fever sore will prevent it from becoming very unsightly and noticeable. Insect stings or corrup tions on the skin are removed by alcohol. A few grains of alum in tepid water will relieve people whose hands perspire verj freely, rendering them unpleasantly moist. A few drops of sulpheric acid in the water are also beneficial for this pur pose, and are also desirable for those iwhose feet perspire freely. We should always recommend care in the use ol scented soap; in many cases the perfume is simply a disguise for poor quality. A good glycerine or honey soap is always preferable. Of course one may rely on scented soap from a high class manufac turer, but it costs more than it is worth. In addition to the soap for bathing white castile should be kept for washing the hair. Occasionally a liltlc borax or am monia may be used for this purpose, but it is usually too harsh in its effects. The Fa mil; Doctor. FLANNEL FOR THE EABY. If mothers knew the immense saving of trouble that there is in dressing a baby in flannel altogether, even putting out ol the question its great physical benefit tc the child, it would be a strong argument in its favor. Every mother knows the quantity of washing there i? lo be done where there is a baby, of which the starching and ironing is not the least part of the trouble. All this is elone away with where flannel is used. Half an hour or less will suftice to wash a baby's whole flannel wardrobe. Some will think that to provide a -'layette'' entirely of flaunt must be a very expensive proceeding but it need not be so. There will not h" re quired so many garni . ;-,;. of funnel r.s there, are of cotton or linen, r.nd they last much longer, and they do not require anything like the same amount of flnr sewing in the making. It is ridiculous the amount of time some young mother? spend in preparing their first layette. Hours are p;i$sed with bead bent, shoul ders stooped and eye? strained, matuifac turing countless tucks and frills to linen shirts and petticoats and robes that, af ter all, are only to injure the little creat ure for whom they are prepared. There is often as much spent in the pure hse of useless lace for the adornment of these unsanitary garments as would purchase a year's supply of comfortable, health-preserving flannels. And it need r.o-r be supposed that flannel garments must be ugly ones. They will "near a great deal of ornamentation if the maker of thorn feel so disposed. They can be shaped prettily, and can be embroidered cithei with silk or that jlas thread known a flourishing cotton. Hut lei them be made rationally. What gn.v.n up man or woman would go about with bare legs, arms a.-.l neck? And. if gr-.wr people would not wear this kind of dress, why should we make young chihovr adopt it? It is a relic of batvr.rism. Because the child's amis look pretty, ne account is taken as to how it may suflei from this absurd vanity. Kven worner who go to parties with their nee; jtc shoulders bare have some wrap to throw round them when coming away, but chil dren run from one room to the other in cold weather, when the house is nol heated ; they run out on the hall dooi steps with their throats and chests ex posed to the cold, and what wonder thee when illness follows. The Lady. FASHION" NOTES. The favored tints in Paris, it is said. will be the beige and green, but first and foremost of all. every shade of violet, from mauve pink to the eleep bishoj! hue. There is a decided reaction in favor oi jackets, which are made in some instances more ornate than formerly and conse quently worn on elressy eccasions as well as in the morning. Skilful elressmakers make up the so called tailor-made gowns with a perfec tion of neatness which the tailor finds it difficult to surpass, manipulating cloth as effective as silk or velvet. The new cloaks are many of them made with long, hanging sleeves. Among the novel combinations of color in the new plaids, many of which show but two colors, are olive and orange, brown and Roman red, and shrimp pink and linden green. Some of the new French visiting dresses, or carriage gowns, as they are called, without being trained, are what is calleel demi-long, just made to touch the floor slightly at the back. The German Court tlress is to be re modeled after an ancient costume which compriseel knee breeches, buckle shoes, a sword, a three-cornereel hat and also a periwig. In 1866 five-eighths of the people of the United States owned their own homes, anel only three-eighths were the prey of landlordism. In IS86 only three-eighths owned their own homes, and live-eighths were reduced to the rank of tenants. FUN. The greatest of all poetry is a girl's first ore letter.

Young Man "1 have come to answer your auvcrtimcrt for ft 'young raanjith plenty nf push.' What is the petition that is open?"

Why. in less than twenty-four hours after I arrived there she had me in the kitchen washing dish"?."' Ur. Gladsine?s Simple Life. 31 r. (Gladstone's habits of life are very simple, although busy. He rises about :?)) o'clock, breakfasts o;i bacon and eggs or a little A and tea. and then goes to his library to skim over the newspaper.-. From 1) io 1 o'clock he receives visitors. A light lunch follows, aud then he drives directly to Parliament. lie u-uailv dines quietly at home at 7:30 in the evening, the food being simple and the wines light, and then he returns to the House. Unless there is to be an im portant division, he is at home and in bed by 11 o'clock. Mr. Gladstone has a fondness for his old clothes, and when new ones are bought for him, his wife has to report to diplomacy to make him. wear them. "When he speaks in the House he !oo.-ers his collar, turns up his wrist bands and unbuttons his waistcoat, his gestures becoming exceeding vigorous p.s he warms up. N't? York Graphic.
