AN INEXPENSIVE ICEBOX.
It Can lie Made at Home Very Easily and Will Cost Only SI.
Refrigerators and thoir plebeian cousins, plain iceboxes, aro now sold in the stores at prices that are within the proverbial "reach of all," so to speak, I but there are some people, nevertheless, that find it advisible, if not convenient, to make one at home. For their no^sible benefit tho accompanying cut od, with a detailed description of how to wake the box therein shown.
The arrangement consists of two "boxes, the larger 0110 about throe feet
square and the smaller one just enough smaller to allow a space of about three inches between the two around the four sides and also at the bottom. This space should be filled closely with sawdust or with fine charcoal.
Line the inside of the inner box with zinc, and through the bottom bore a hole that will admit a half inch lead pipe. A hole should also be bored in the bottom of the larger box right under that in the smaller one, and the lead pipe must be long enough to go through both holes and carry oif the water that will come from the ice. The latter may lie upon the bottom of the box without support of any kind.
This box will be found a good preserver of ico, and it should not exceed $1 in cost if made at home. If shelves are desired, hang strips of tin over tho edge of the inner box, with cleats attached on which the shelves may rest. —Philadelphia Times.
Wliat Is a "Lady?"
It would never enter into my head to think a person of great wealth and possessed of a fine establishment a lady, if she could turn in her own house from a beaming recognition of some star of contemporaneous fashion to bestow a frozen greeting upon a social makeweight or a poor friend of other clays who had not kept pace with her in progress up the ladder of society, writes Mrs. Burton Harrison in an interesting discussion of the proper usage of tho terms "woman" and "lady" in The Ladies' Home Journal.
To lay dowxi a law "for the Vise of the word in the present condition of American society would, I think, puzzle the most ingenious makers of social codes. For the
time it
must remain a matter
of intuition when and whore to apply tho graceful courtesy title of "lady."
Today's Woman.
Dublin has a now paper Slcd Today's Woman. It is edited and written by a group of talefited 'women, many of •whom are university graduates. Its leading article is by Sir Charles Cameron on "Scientific Professions For Women." Progress in .England has been along different grooves from what' it has been in America. Here women havo entered law, medicine, dentistry, the pulpit, chemistry, pharmacy and architecture, while in England they havo seemingly avoided these fields and have gone, into geology, mineralogy, botany, zoology, paleontology and higher mathematics. Today's Woman argues the adoption of the American system and the broadening of tho British system.
liattle Creek's League.
In Battle Crock, Mich., March 6, a woman's league was organized. Its object is tho promotion of all literary, musical, scientific, philanthropic, educational, artistic and social movements in which women aro interested. It is proposed to make it auxiliary to the Leaguo of All Women Societies now in the city. The officers elected are: President, Mrs. Eugene Glass vice president, Mrs. C. M. Ranger, Mrs. L. A. Dudley secretary, Mrs. Frank Dunning treasurer, Miss Cora Leon also a board of managers. Tho league starts out with a membership of over 300 prominent women.
She Protests.
Mrs. Mary Smith Hayward of Chadron, treasurer of the Nebraska W. S. A. and one of tho leading merchants west of Omaha, made a spirited protest this yoar against paying her taxes. It was addressed to the county treasurer and set forth that she was a person and entitled to protection in her rights, basing her claim on sections 1 of articles 14 ayd 15 of the constitution of the United States and on the bill of rights of the constitution of Nebraska.
Care the Feet.
"Trilby" has started womon on a fresh crusade in the care of their feet. It gives a "black eye" to tight 6hoes. If the foot is to be beautiful, bare, the shoe must be loose (as Trilby knew). The ono thing that can keep the feet perfectly soft, the skin all over them like a baby's, is piL Cocoa oil is the best for them, and they should be rubbed with it every day. The result adds greatly to comfort as well as to beauty. —Cincinnati Enquirer.

FALSE REPORTS ABOUT WHEAT.
Xli.-
s..-,
iVot ISoun Injured to the
Extent Generally lieported—Corn, Oats, IVirk and l.ar«l All Advanced in Price. Ir:n Industry Improved Mills and Factories Again ISecouiing Active. NEW YORK. May ~5.—R. G. Dun & Company's weekly review of trade says: If wheat has been so greatly injured by the snows and frosts in May that the sudden rise of 12 cents in two weeks is justified, the calamity will effect all business prospects. The markets do not believe it for stocks do not collapse, iron, leather and hides still rise and no holders of wheat would sell at 80 cents, a lower price than had been known at this season for 30 years prior to 1893, if current reports were credited.
Some inquiry has undoubtedly been sustained but our own dispatches do not show that it is really serious. The temper is to buy, regardless of visible requirements, in the faith that prices are sure to rise. Western receipts of wheat for three weeks have been larger th ui last year in spite nf storms and frosts. But the rise hf«s practically stopped buying for export, as the similar rise did in April, 1884, which was followed by about the lowest prices then ever known. Whether grain has been greatly injured or not, foreign markers will take early occasion to fortify themselves from other sources. The week's sale here have amounted to 155,000,000 bushels and accounts of damage by frost and by insects are so mixed up that some traders infer the bugs must wear overcoats.
Corn rose 3 3-4 cents during the wTeek, though much of the corn killed may be replanted pork rose 50 cents per barrel, lard 5 cents per 100 pounds and oats 2 cents. Cotton also advanced threeI eights during the week, with sales of I 1,550,200 bales, current estimates putting the decrease in acreage at 13.5 per cent and the crop at 7,350,000. Even this with known commercial and spinners I stocks would give the world for the I year and a quarter to come more American cotton tiian it has ever consumed in a year and a half.
The iron industry distinctly gains and the improvement is no longer confined to prices of materials. Better wages at and west of Pittsburg convince buyers that prices must raise, and there have been larger sales of finished products I with about $1 per ton better prices for I structural forms and steel bars, while
Bessemer pig has risen to $11.50 at Pittsburg. The Thomas Company has I advanced its anthracite pig 50 cents and higher fre:guts made southern cost more at the east. Sales of rails to May 1 were. 420,000 tons and' deliveries 250,000, both larger than last year. Nail wcrks tire combining imd a Coke ^odl is expected to raise prices soon.
Pittsburg' batiks note withdrawals for payrolls in the past month of $2,383,397, against $1,8(55,818 last year by tllte fcatne works. Orders this year number 22,029 freight and 72 passenger cars, 5,000 more than in tho year 1894, but, in 1893, and previous years the output was over 93,000 freight ears. Anthracite coal is decidedly strong and copper very firm, at 10 1-2 cents for lake, though the April output was about 2,500 tons larger than that of January.
Purchases of dry goods in the belief that prices must rise, have kept textile mills'fairly busy, but the demand for cottons seems slacker on the whole, and print cloths are a sixteenth weaker.
Failures this week have been 207 ia the United States, against 183 last year, and 23 itt Canada, against 28 last year.
BALTIC SHIP CANAL OPENING. Prexldent Cleveland's Picture Will Illuminate tUe Night at Kiel.
Ninvv YORK, May 25. President Cleveland's portrait will illuminate the night during the festivities attending the opening of the Baltic ship canal. It will be shown in pyrotechnics from the yard arm of the cruiser New York at. Kiel, and at tho same time a fiery portrait of Emperor William II will be displayed.
It was suggested to Secretary Herbert shortly before the New York sailed that it would be an excellent idea to have a display of tire works at the opening of the canal and that the president's portrait would look well among other set pieces. The secretary thought well of the suggestion and orders to that effect were accordingly given.
Marder Over Waged.
BOWLING GTREEX, Ky., May 25.—In a difficulty over wages kept, J. S. Morehead struck a former employe, Robert liittner, with a bar of iron fracturing his skull. Bittner is not expected to live. Morvhead is one of the most prominent citizens of this county and is the proprietor of the pianing mill here. Bittuer is about (30 years old aiifl very popular. There is a great deal of excitement over the matter but there is ho danger oi mob violence. Bittner's brains oozed out through the fractured skull and he can not possibly recover.
One Thousand Men Hejoicing. YOUNOSTOWN, O.. May 25.-—The OKio Steel company of tnis city has advanced the wages of all employes, over 1,000 in number, 10 per cent. The action was voluntary on the part of the company. With the laborers the advance dates back to May 15 last, and with skilled workmen it will begin June 1. The news is received with great rejoicing by the men.
No Cmta Itica-Nicaraguan War. WASHINGTON, May 25.—Senor Cairo, the Costa It.cuu representative here, says that the reports of probable war between Costa Rice and Nicaragua are groundless, according to advices received by him. He says the bouiidary question'is the only one on which'the governments differ. This, he says, is a subject of peaceful, diplomatic adjustment.

CANUCK WIFE DESERTERS."
A. Movement Looking Toward llieir Adequate l'mushim-iit. QCKISEC, May 25.—Bigamy in tho
United States by Canadian citizens is one of the subjects to be grappled with next week at Toronto by the National Council of Women ol' Canada under the presidency of its founder, the countess of Aberdeen. It has lately been decided here that a married person who is a .'British subject- resident- Canada and who goes to the United States, or anyplace out of Canada, and there goes .through a form a marriage with another -. person, can not in Canada, be convicted of bigamy. This is the case even when no divorce has been obtained in the
United States. To lawyers it seems clear enough that the bigamy being committed in the United States is not an offense against Canadian law, and that therefore, it is unreasonable to expect that there should bj any machinery for convicting the offender in Canada. But the Countess of Aberdeen and the ladies affiliated with her upon the executive committee of the National Council of Women of Canada are bound to have such provision made, if by any means possible, and there have recently been some very sad cases of wife desertion in Canada and remarriage in the United States, calculated to call out female sympathy in general.
Wheat Hcnclitted by llain.
TOKPEKA, May 25.—The entire state of Kansas was visited yesterday by a heavy rain. In many sections it came down in a deluge. Dispatches to railroad headquarters here say that the ram commenced early in Mie morning in eastern Colorado and extended 500 miles, covering Kansas. Oklahoma and soul hern Nebraska. It came in time to help much of the late wheat, and 1 be of incalculable benelit to corn an I oars. It is the heaviest rain the state lias had for months.

LKAYKNWORTH, Kan., May 25.—Sheriff' Kothenberger has received a- letter from Governor Morrill with explicit instructions to prevent the Dixon-Gardner yirize fight which is to be pulled off in :!ie southern part of Leavenworth county next Sunday. The sheriff says he will have a large force of deputies on the ground and surely prevent it taking place in this county.
