* * * * * ONE of our lady subscribers takes two copies of the "Lady's Book," so that she can have one to lend. Hard case; but it is the only way, she says, that she can secure a copy for her own perusal. We would suggest to her to slip in the copy proposals for a club of six. The price to each one would only be $1 67 for a year's subscription. Enigmas. * * * * * ANSWERS TO ENIGMAS IN MARCH NUMBER. 9. Mist. 10. The letter G. 11. A windmill. 12. Faith, Hope, Charity. * * * * * ENIGMAS. 13. THE treasure that I render you Surpasses any mine of gold; 'Tis clear my sterling value, too, Is far too precious to be sold. My current stock your wants supplies, Your draughts on me I liquidate, Relieving your necessities, And keeping solvent your estate. In my transactions, though I'm deep, Still truth is e'er ascribed to me; And well continually I keep With folks who use me prudently. In banks, I never do intend My "floating capital" to trust; On firmer footing I depend, And what I am would you be--just. 14. I'M able, by the aid of tea, A banquet to support; And when I'm following the sea, Retain my ship in port: But when effaced, then must I be Fictitious in report. 15. I'M good for nothing, save when kept, As many a soul can tell; And should exist conceal'd, except 'Gainst honor I rebel. The happiness of many a heart Will oft depend on me; Its ease, alas! will oft depart, Whene'er I cease to be. Receipts, &c. * * * * * CHEAP CONTRIVANCE FOR FILTERING.--A very cheap and good contrivance for filtering is to take a large garden flower-pot, and lay in the bottom a piece of sponge, so as to cover the hole. Upon this put a few smooth, clean pebbles, to keep the sponge in its place, and fill up the pot, to within two or three inches of the brim, with a mixture of one part of powdered charcoal to two parts of fine sharp sand. Then cover the top of the pot with a piece of clean white flannel, tied tightly round the rim with a twine, but so as to sink or sway down in the centre. Set the flower-pot in a pan or tub, and pour the water into the flannel, letting it filter through the charcoal, &c.; and, by the time it has passed through the sponge, and come out at the bottom, it will be clear. * * * * * TO CLEANSE A TEAKETTLE FROM FUR.--Heat the kettle rapidly over a fire of shavings, having previously made it quite dry. The expansion will separate the fur from the metal, and it may then be easily removed. * * * * *
