The big real estate deal which resulted in tbe purchase of quarter of theTerre Haute House square by the Knights of Pything was brought about by tbe Vigo Real Estate company, which is always on hand in all the big roal estate transactions occurring in this locality.

Yesterday morning fire was discovered in E. K. Wright's store on Main, between Sixth aud' Seventh streets. It was extinguished by the lire department without a very serious loss.

Where Tfcmcn Fail.
A bright and pretty woman rather surprised me the other day by saying: "Fond as I am of my *ex, I am not sodeluMvelj* enamored of it to believe that women in uiT«irs are the equal of men.. I don't think they are. ri
Or, il they are, it is wiihin their own province, and not when competing with the men *«r theirs." "For initance?" I queried. "Well, fbr instance, we hear tbe stage »nd tbe press cit-ed as examples of the equality of the sexes in earning fame and money. fiachel and Kistori were undoubtedly the equals in genius of Salviui and Booth. So is Bernhardt, with certain limitations. "But It was in depicting their own sex that these actresses succeeded s»o well. Had they essayed anything masculine they would have failed. "In regard to the press, I don't believe there is a woman in this country capable, mentally and physically, of being chief editor of one of our great New York dailies. "Yet with what sweetness and strength they fill that journalistic field that has been allotted to them, when it takes the form of the outcome of their own femininity! "Of course there are the exceptions, such as George Eliot and Georgs Sand, but in nearly every instance you will find that women succeed best when doing what is rnost natural for them to do—something in which their femininity can be best exploited."—New York Recorder.
Children's Playmate*.
It is an excellent thing to know with whom your children play and how they deport themselves. If they are made welcome at your home you have the best opportunity of gaining this information. It need not be very irksome to keep the number within bounds. In summer our little visitors like to sit with their playthings .in the shady porches or in the doorway. In cold weather they can have the warm dining room. If disposed to run over the house, it is sufficient to say decidedly, "Don't run up stairs, please just play in the dining room," and I have never known a child to disregard the request. It is worth a great deal to make children happy. They remember little treats longer than we suppose.
Set out a plnteof sandwiches, cookies, apples or whatever is the handiest in tho pantry, and then let the little girls arrange them to suit themselves on their little sprigged tea set. A little coffee and sugar and milk in their small dishes make their happiness complete. Be a lady to your boy's friends and leave a good impression upon them, if you wish to retain the respect of your own dear boy. It hurts boys' feelings and mortifies them intensely to have mother speak snappishly to them before companions, making" them feel that they are not wanted. Such boys are apt to wander away, with most resentful feelings, to seek such company as their mother would dread to have for their associates. But whom should she blame for it?—Domestic Monthly.
A Woman's "*irub Bath.
Nothing on eartf ywill help a woman more to preserve^ general health and good complexion mix a dally scrub bath. Get enough Tur^ ysh toweling by the yard (you can get r«v /ants) to muke two pairs of tlmmblessl Ltens just large enough to allow the hand to rough towel and .. generous? nppiyof tepid water, and of course soap /and either another towel to stand on if a piece of oilcloth four feet square.
It is very important to have a warm room, so that the body may not be chilled when yon doff your garments. After taking every tiling off stand on the oilcloth or towel in front of your basin, slip your mittens on and dip them in the water, squeeze the drips from tho mittens, soap %vell and rub the body all over, beginning at the neck and ending with the toes. Takeoff the mittens, lay them down beside the basin all the soil of the body will bo in those mittens. Take your second pair of mittens, slip them on and go over your body again, rinsing the mittens several times, thus. Take the soap off the arms, then rinse the waist, etc. Bathing thus rests and strength ens a tired body.
It takes from eight to ten minutes to wash from top to toe and t-d rinse the mil tens In a .second water ready for another day. It is well to put thctu in the air to sweeten and to Have them boiled once week to keep them pleasant.—New York Press.
Doing Tilings Kaslly.
"I)o sit down," said the wise mother of a family to the new and ambitious young housemaid. "I do not in the least approve of what might be called laziness, or the habit of collapsing into a chair every time one turns around, but 1 do believe in saving one's strength when it is just as easy to do it-. "You are standing at the ,|able to pare your potatoes, when yon might just as well sit down to do it* By and by there will Ik cleaning and brushing and scrubbing to do, when you must stand. If there is fruit to prepare, vegetables to get ready or any of the many things where one may remain quiet while doing them, it is much better to sit. This gives renewed enerny for the harder part of the work, and while there is so much about housework that is necessarily taxing, it seems to me a very wise thing to do this. I do not know why economy in strength is not jiost as impornn as economy in anything else. "Certainly the ability to make the best of all of our powers is worth a little study. People who are well and strong often seem to enjoy a reckless exhibition of their ptaysical ability, but with these a time almost Always comes when the heavy strain of wasted energy begins to tell on the constitution then it is too late to prevent the damaged—New York Ledger.
