Cover pantry shelves and washstands in common use with oilcloth. It is inexpensive, comes In bright colors and pretty patterns, and if occasionally wiped with a wet cloth, keeps clean and fresh.

When the mica in stoves becomes discolored take out the piece If possible, aud put them in a vinegar bath for a few hours: then polish with a soft dry cloth. If they cannot be removed, rub with a cloth dipped in hot vinegar and polish as before.

To clean a piano, use lukewarm water, white castile soap and a piece of cheese cloth. Wash a small surface, work rapidly, and dry, first with a pir- of old soft canton flannel then polish. C!o over the woodwork in this way. These directions are given by a piauo dealer.

When ink is spilled on a carpet 01 garment at once cover the place with a thick paste of starch and cold water to the depth of an inch and let dry. Or take up with blotting paper, wash well in sweet or sour milk, then cover with white corn meal and leave twelve hours. For dry ink stains, soak in milk, and repeat the above several times.

To make a serviceable covering for a dining-room or kitchen floor, nail, wrong side up an old Brussels carpet to the floor of the attic or outbuilding, then paint with a thick coat of linseed oil and burn umber. When thoroughly dry, give a coat of good varnish. Let it lie ten or twelve days. It should be tacked to the floor loosely, ns it shrinks some during the process. Clean the same as oilcloth.

To brighten gilt picture frames ami ornaments, to a pint and a half of water add sufficient flower of sulphur to give golden tinge in this boil four or five bruised onions. Strain, and when cold apply with a soft brush. Prepared gilding, carefully applied, will restore tarnished gilding. If broken or defaced, fill wl+h putty hefore gilding.

With a new whitewash brush apply a thick coat. When dry. apply a coat of boiled linseed oil.

A novice can paint a window sash nearly ns well as a professional by using a piece of tin the size of a pane with a handle. Wipe off any adhering paint, with a cloth moistened with kerosene. To imitate frost glass put some putty In cheese cloth and twist the ends to form a pad. then with it pat the glass until well covered with a milky white stain. When perfectly dry give coat of good varnish.

Wash grained and varnished woodwork with cold tea. If the least, bit of soap is necessary to remove finger marks around door knobs, or to clean window sills, rinse immediately in clear water. Soapy water irretrievably injures graining. In cleaning base boards a short handled mop will do excellent service and save great fatigue. It is also useful in washing the tops of doors that, otherwise cannot be reached without a chair or stepladder.

To wash a pillow or bolster, double a sheet and sew side and ends together. leaving an opening on one enfl little more than the width of the pillow. Open pillow, sew the two together and shake feathers into the sheet. Wash thoroughly in soapsuds, rinse, wring with machine and dry in the sunshine, shaking often to lighten the feathers.

All fruit, tea and coffee stains are more easily removed by dis"olving a little borax in the boiling water that is poured through them. When upholstered furniture is infested with moths sprinkle it with powdered borax dusting it weli into the crevices. To clean woodwork add a tablespoonful to a pint of hot water and use a flannel cloth. A nice lather for cleaning light woolens is made by adding about a tablespoonful of the powder to a gallon of water.

Apply hot and let dry a fevx hours before applying the paper. Take great care to cover every part of the wall. Note that the part near the ceiling and baseboard is not overlooked, as there the brush Is likely to slip.

Winter wbeat flour makes the best paste. A. little carbolic may be stirred to re«el Insects. CLARIBEL.

THE WIFE A HELPMATE

Mutual Sympathy and Usefulness Should tnter Into the Marriage Contract.

Not to cook, aud wash, and mend and drudge, day in and day out, sure ly. If this is all a man wants, why not hire a servant: they can be had much cheaper than a wife? If this is all a man wants, it is easy to fancy a young man calling upon a young lady and asking her for a sample of her pudding aud that sh# show him some of her needlework, and that she bring the broom and give him an illustration of how she can sweep. Suoh things are important and it should be every girl's aim to be proficient in all duties of the household.

But how much more happiness there might be in this life if young men and women would only try to realize that what they most need to learn is how to become helpful, sympathetic, loving companions! When they are courting they are fond of each other's society, they like to be together, to talk, to take walks, and what a lot they find to talk about while his strong arm is about her waist.

And there is never a need for thess days to end. The man would be better at his business, and the wife would get her work done while he is away, with nimble lingers and a happy heart, if such a condition did but exist. The great mistake is made when the young wife thinks. Well, she has her home, and the young man reflects—he has a wife. Sympathy and love, that is what each should give the other all through life, aud with these the home may be made a paradise—without it, cannot be other than a wilderness.

A 5ood Mode of Kxrrctae, The exercise illustrated is taken without apparatus. It is useful in the development of a round and beautiful waist aud in strengthening the abdom-

inal musics. It is taken in two positions. First 3 osition—Kneel on the left knee, the face looking straight forward, the right arm extended above the head, the left at the waist. The head and the entire trunk are now slowly turned to the left, the right arm following. This is the position shown in the illustration and should be held for a moment, when the original pose should be resumed.

After three or four of these movements to the left side, the knee position should be shifted to the other leg and the turning made to the right. The eflect of this simple exercise will be noticed almost immediately in the waist and groin muscles and the circulation greatly assisted in these parts

Items of Interest About the Hair.

Black liair was most esteemed by the ancient .lews, while the Greeks anil Homans gave the preference to the golden tints, a certain shade red being much in vogue among the ladies, who sought every means of imparting the desired color to their dark locks. It is said that those with dark hair work the best, while those with fair hair do the most thinking.

People with very fair, almost colorless hair, accompanied by white lashes and eyebrows, are generally of a weak constitution, rather stupid, fond of music, cut no great: figure in the world and being of a harmless and Inoffensive disposition are seldom badly missed when they leave it.

Black-haired persons, on the contrary. are strong and healthful, but apt to be quarrelsome. If the hair is smooth anil straight it denotes constancy. but. if curry, great ardor in the beginning of an attachment of the iMirsuit of an undertaking, followed by inconsistency, want of application anil unfaithfulness.

Dark brown hair combines strength, susceptibility, attention to business and good humor, the owner of this colored hair usually making an excellent life partner.

Bed hair is usually supposed to' indicate a passionate, ardent, hot-tem-pered nature. An old Scotch saw, however. says, "a red-headed lass never needs look for a lover," which would imply that tIk color is not In disfavor with the stern sex, in spite of the temper that goes with it, and statistics support this idea, for some calculating observer has discovered that the redheaded old-maid is such a scarce article as to be practically non-existant. :ind when such a phenon^non is found events never fail to proi^that she is "Miss" by choice.

Uegarding the Ills most common to different colors, it is said that black and dark-haired people are more liable to consumption than others brownhaired to rheumatism and heart-dis-eases red hair to pleurisy, pneumonia and neuralgia yellow-haired to skin diseases.

Closely curled hair denotes vivacity, excitability, inconsistancy and unevennoss of temper: hair curling in loose, irregular rings Indicates good nature, an affectionate disposition and generosity. Straight hair in cultured persons indicates evenness of character, honesty of purpose, a clear head, good talents, perseverance and determination, but in persons of little or no ednation It is a sign of obstinacy,self-grrft-ificatlon and mulishness.

"You can't place any dependence on a woman's word," moodily remarked the young man who had been jilted. "Of course you don't believe that." "Oh, yes I do," said the married man. "My wife has been threatening to leave me for ten years."—Indianapolis Iournal.'::,s,|j
