Cleaning the Cellar.
In no part of the house is it so important that the cleaning- be thoroughly done as in the cellar, writes Maria
Parloa in a practical article entitled
"When Cleaning House," in the April
Ladies' Home Journal. Wot a corner
should be slighted. Begin with the
furnace. Have the registers closed in
every room. Remove all the cinders
and ashes and clean out all the Hues and
pipes. Many housekeepers have the
pipes removed, hut the smoke-pipe is
really the only one that it is necessary
to take down. This pipe is liable to
rust, because of the moisture it gathers
from the chimney; nevertheless, if
there be no way oKheating and drying
the house during a cold, damp period
in summer except by building a fire in
the furnace, it would be cheaper to renew this smoke-pipe every few years
than run the risk of having the family
made ill from receiving a chill. While
the men are in the house to clean the
furnace it would be economy to have
them clean the flues in the range and
also the chimneys. Open the cellar
windows, to briug everything into the
light. Have the coal bins cleaned.
Brush everything free from dust. Now
sweep the ceiling and walls as well as
the floor. Brush the walls once more.
Wash the "windows aud any closets,
shelves or tables there may be in the
cellar. Now have the walls whitewashed. Before the various articles
stored in the cellar are put back in
place, brush them again. Sweep the
floor once more.

AN EX-CONVICT'S STORY.
Pitiful Plaint of a Man "IVlio Has Served a
Tei'in. "For ITorgery.
'No. 15,481" tel's a pitiable story of his
dS-Hculties in atfcaap? ing to obtain a living honestly after frhtiergoing a* term of
imprisonment. He was sentenced 3i
years ago to two years' imprisonment for
forgery. Previously he had been possessed of considerable means, had been
brought up in luxury, hut exhausting his
fortune had committed forgery to obtain
more money. During his imprisonment
he came into contact with many young
fellows 'who had committed similar
crimes, and who hadnot the slightest idea
as to how they "were to gain a living when
they got out. When he was released, he
had a few pounds, and when this was
gone he applied to the Discharged Prisoners' Aid society.
He says: "I was told J could come
into the house (and so mix with some of
the greatest of criminals), for which I
should have to chop wood or do tailoring, etc.. but this I objected to do, so
was given a note to take to a tradesman
in a certain district of London, who offered me a situation as traveler on commission (only) for the sale of cart grease,
which I politely declined. It matters
not what position a man held in life previous to his getting "into trouble, on release this society offers the same means
of obtaining an honest livelihood to
every one—that is, chopping and making
up bundles of firewood, working in the
tailors' shops, taking on a milk round
with a hand truck, traveling on commission for some article which the public in
90 cases out of 100 refuse to look at,
much less to purchase.
"It is now nearly 18 months since I
was released, during which time I have
been living out a wretched Existence,
sometimes going days without food and
walking the streets at night, and sometimes I am able to earn a few sliillings
by addressing postal wrappers. I can
assure you, sir, that if the authorities
would allow me inside the prison (without committing another crime) I would
return today. It will ultimately come
to my going back or suicide."—London

The Xiomlon Coffee House In 1700.
At the coffee house the news was discussed, rumors were invented, scandal
aired and assignations made. Letters
were received and kept for known customers. Swift vised to find his letters
from Stella in the frame of the glass behind the bar of the St. James coffee
house. Harley, afterward Earl of Oxford, saw one of Stella's letters one day
in that conspicuous position and asked
Swift how long he had learned the trick
of writing to himself. Stella wrote a hand
very closely resembling Swift's own.
The floor of a coffee room was divided
into boxes similar to those that still linger in a few taverns and hostelries that
i preserve a flavor of times gone hy.   Be-
j hind a bar sat enshrined the "idols," as
a correspondent of The Spectator terms
j the barmaids, whose manners and cus-
I torus, especially their fondness for flirta-
1 tion and bar worship—the chief grievance with this correspondent, who was
probably either old or ugly—have their
counterparts at the present day beneath
more pretentious roofs. Tom Brown describes the "idols" as "a charming Phillis
or two, who invite you by their amorous
glances   into their   smoky territories."
The crusty Spectator complained that
great difficulty in getting served was experienced by those who did not respond

It seems that we can successfully
fight cholera with,orauges and lemons.
The imperial health office of Berlin has
issued an announcement lo the effect
that oranges and lemons are ooth fatal
to the cholera bacillus. Placed in eon-
tact with the cut surface of the fruit,
the bacteria survive but a few hours.
They remain active for some time
longer on'the uninjured rind of the
fruit, but even then they die within
twenty-four hours. The destructive
property as regards the cholera bacteria is supposed to be due to the large
amount of acid contained in those fruits.
In consequence of this quality, the
health officer considers it unnecessary
to place any restrictions on the transit
and sale of these fruits,even if it should
t be ascertained that  they come from
A Bet "Wltil Apparent Odds.
A successful railroad projector was
expressing some very positive opinions
about the market value Si a certain railroad stock in a Wall street restaurant
two or three days ago.    "I will bet §100
to a red apple," he exclaimed, "that	
stock will sell at par within a year and
a half."
"I'll take the bet," exclaimed a young
man with a very serious fact*.
"All right, sir. Put up your red apple, and I will put up my limit y.'
