HOW TO KEEP HOUSE. V A llrler, Bat Wise. Trealise on a Subject ot Ureal Interest. Wometf arc always somewhat supersensitive about their work. There is probably no point on which this supersensitiveness is more displayed than that or housekeeping. To be called a •■slack” housekeeper stings a woman to the quick, no matter how deserved the impeachment may be; yet the moment a woman does that she is exc ting herself in her housekeeping to do more than: she otherwise would for fear that “people will talk,” that moment she begins to endanger her whole theory of life. It is this keeping house so as to please society and to placate “the neighbors” which is at the bottom of much of the overwork and the belittling of the mind, which are the bane ot housekeepers. — ' i - “Don't try to koep your house too dean,” says a clever .<ri*er, “or oiso a stepmother will bring iij, your children.” ’ This simple but interesting presen tation of the matter throws a tlood of 1 ght upon it. It intimates that a housekeeper has duties besides keeping house and paramount to that one. A housekeeper is usually a wife. A wife, besides seeing that her husband has clean rooms to live in, well-cooked meaiL »nd neat clothes, should make herself a companion for him. His mind is usually sharpened by activity in business or professional fife. She must see to it that her mind is kept as sharp as possible, by reading and study. She should try to remain, so far as her oilbrUcan go, what she probably was in I he days of their courtship—the most interest ng person in the world for him to be with. Above all things, she. must keep herself well and strong, or else good spirits, which are the most charming attributes in either manor woman, will be lacking. Then she is usually a mother. Her children are full of questions. They desire her companionship and her conversation. Whose else can be so good tor iihem as hers? She should see to it hhat they have those in full measure and of pood quality. She is also a member of some social circle. The greatest work Jthat women can do to improve the social fabric is, of course, in the homo; but there are many outside duties which no sell-re-specting woman should neglect, and for which she should save a portion of her time and strength. Hue keeping of the house, then, is only one of several vocations of the homie-keepsr, and subordinate to those of the wife, the mother and the genial lining. That is to say, the Keeping of the house lin which family and friends are to ne fed and sheltered; is only a means to the securing of their health and happiness. Just as soon as a woman begins to think of the cleaning and cooking as ends in themselves, aim de- , votfis herself to them to such an extent that her usefulness in higher spheres is impel S&Tsshe is making a mistake. Keep thavbalance true. Kemember that the objects of our earthly toil are to keep our loved ones well and happy. Re! agate conversation about the household affairs to the background, unless the humorous side is uppermost. $ee that good meals, plain and substantial, are served, no matter what cleaning or ether work is going on. Mo not tire yourself out with trying to do double Work in a day. By system this can be avoided. Never mind what “the neighbor” «ay. Keep continually in mind that) you are keeping house not for the ilPt of keening house, but to make

HARO TO SHAVE. A Washingtons Tonsortal Artist Itlta Uml Some Prominent Men [Carp, in Cleveland Leader.] I dropped into a barber’s chair the other night for a shave. The young colored man who handled the razor was a character. He told me that he shared many of the prominent men of the country. Said he: “Speaker Carlisle is a hard man to shave. He has an angular, rough-bearded face. He drops into a chair, and does not say a word until he gets out of it, except when he is afraid of being cut” “Did you ever shave a President!” I inquired. “No. But 1 used to go over Hendricks’ faca every day or two. Vice-President Hendricks was a very hard man to keep clean. It took a long time, too, to shave him, but ho was such a good talker, and told so many stories, that 1 never noticed how the time was passing. The last time he Was here Post-master-General Vilas came with him, and he kept telling anecdotes’ to him between the sweeps of the razor. I have shaved Dan Voorhees, toe, at times. Voorhees has one of thbse red hnd gray, hoarse beards, which is very hard to cut He is very particular as to his personal appearance and considers himself a dandy. Governor Curtin has a National reputation as being the worst man in the country to slump His beard is very hard and it runs ntrSorts of ways. The hairs overlap each other and have no regularity whatever. All the barbers about Washington know him, and some of them will make an excuse io get dut of the shop when he cornea in. Bancroft comes here to get his hair cut, but he oftener has us come to his house for this purpose. He likes to talk while we are dressing his head, but y in have to work very carefully with him. Ho is getting old and is liable to bo out of humor at times.”

MIMICRY IN SNAKES. A Harmless African Reptile Which Looks Precisely Like me Herg-AdJer. [Cape Town Cor. Nature.) A Curious faot has been lately brought to uiy notico by & friend of mine, Mr. H. M. Oakley, in connection with the Daxyptllis icaber, Linn., or egg-eating snake—the “Eljer eter” of the E^utch colonists— which, if not already well known, may prove of interest to some of your readers. The speeimon obtained by Mr. Oakley was canght at Hout bay, some twenty miles from Cape Town, and is about three feet in length, and its size, marking and color bear sufficient resemblance to those of the berg adder (Cloiho* atropox, Linn.) to be easily mistaken for that snake. It also has keeled scalos, generally characteristic at the Cape of venomous species. Its head has, however, the long lactfrtine shape dis> tinotive hero of harmless snakes, but when aroused and alarmed or irritated it flattens oat until it assumes the usual viporine shape of the “club” in a playing card. It then coils as for a spring, erects its head with every appearance of anger, producos a hissing noise with its scales, notunlike the hiss of a puff adder or cobra, and darts forward as if to strike its fangs into its foe, and in every way exactly simulates the motions of an irritated berg adder. This snake has, however, neither fangs nor teeth (which, indeed, would not be required for egg-swallow-ing)’, and is not poisonous, a fact which was placed beyoud doubt by Mr. Oakley repeatedly placing his finger in the rep. tilo’s mouth. This seems a clear instance ,of mimicry of another species for defensive purposes, but I am not aware of another irs ance among ophidians.

PRACTICAL CHARITY. What a Philadelphia Relief Society Accomplished with Tweuty Cents. [Philadelphia Ledger.] Tho wondorful effects of a little organized charity judiciously applietPis reported by one of the ward charity associations. A destitute woman whose husband was sick applied for relief, and was given a quarter of a pound of tea "to start with. The next day she was visited, and the society sent a physician to attend her husband, and enlisted a number of charitable organizations in the work of giving relief. In three weeks the husband died and was given a Christian burial by one of thj societies which had been interested in his ease. Then employment was found for the widow. Here the story Of organized charity ends and a romance begins. In a short time the \yofthw. o\116i to say that she was using her earnings to get her wedding ring out of a pawn-shop. Then for sonsig time nothing more was heal'd of her, but when she did come back it was to announce that she had married her employer, had been'oa a wedding trip to Europe, and desired to engage a cook. The report says that the newly-w-rdded couplo have eight people in their corstant employ, and naively adds: “This work cost our association just twenty cents.” That was certainly very cheap, but it is doubtful whether tho ward society can guarantee as happy roturns with every twenty cents, and all in one year. Something, of course, must depend upon the Widow. The Squirrel Caught by Tom. [A Doctor's Daughter la a Letter.] A doctor, on visiting one of his patients, heat’d the following: “I was very weak and felt that a little game might tempt my appetite. Several of the - neighbors had gone out with guns, but did not succeed in shooting any thing. My pet eat Tom, to which I am deeply attached, came into my room, jumped up on my bed and seemed as though he knew something was amiss. We talked to it as we would a child, and h® would understand. By and byo he went out. After an absence of half an hour we heard a mewing at the door. When it was opened in marched Tom with a squirrel. He went straight to tho kitchen and there laid it at the feet of the astonished Bridget. We told Tom to take it away. Ho took it out and laid it under some bushes and guarded it carefully. Finally we decided it was good, as it was warm and had just been caught. I had it for my breakfast. One Woman's Mean Remark. [Milwaukee Wisconsin.] A bit of conversation caught in front of a Mason street butcher’s shop cleverly Illustrated one woman’s opinion of another There were several shoats in tho show .window, all dressed for the oven, with tongues laced from snout to forehead. “There,” was the remark, “I wish Mrs. Somebody had her long tongue laced in that manner, along with her nose and forehead, over her head and down the back of her neck.”

THE GIANT OF MEDICINES. r 7, The Most Effective and Popular Remedy Ever Discovered. WHY IS IT SO EFFECTIVE IN SO MANY DIFFERENT DISEASES? WHY one remedy can affect so many cases is this: The diseases have a common cause, and a remedy that can affect the cause, permanently cures all the diseases. Unlike any other organ in the body, the Kidney when diseased, may Itself be tree from pain, and the very fact that it Is not painful leads many people to deny that it is diseased. But Medical Authorities agree that it can toe lar goue with disease and Jret give forth no pain, because it has few U any nerves of sensation, and these fere the only means of conveying the sense of pain; thus unconsciously diseased it affects the entire system. We do not open a watch tosee if it Is going or Is In good order: We look at the hands, or note the accuracy of its time. So we need not open the kidney to see if it Is diseased. We study the condition of the system. Now then, KIDNEY DISEASE produces Any of the following Common and Unsuspected SYMPTOMS J E*** ache; Unnsnal deslre to urinate at night; Fluttering and pain io the heart; Tired Feelings; Unusual amount of Greasy troth in tvat©r! Irritated, hot and dry skin; Fickle Appetite; Scalding sensations; Acid, bitter taste, with furred tongue in the Morning; Headache and Neuralgia; Abundance Of pate, or seamy flow of dttrk-colored water; Soar Stomach; Heartburn with Dyspepsia; Intense pani. upon sudden excitement, In the Small of the Back; Deposit of uutcous some time after urination| Doss of Memory; Rheumatism, chills and fever slid Pneumonia; Dropsical Swellings' Hed or White brick dust, albumen and tube easts in the water; Constipation, alternating with Looseness; Short breath, Pleurisy and Bronchial affections; Yellowish pale skin, eta These are only the chief disorders or symntdma caused by a diseased condition of the kidneys. Now then, Isn’t It dear to you that the fcldheys, being the cause of all these derangements, if they are restored to health by the great specifie * Warner*'* SAFE Cure.” fho majority of the above ailments will disappear? There 7s N1 MYHTEltY ABOUT IT. It does cure many bad states of the s _ _ system precisely its we have indicated. Now when the kidneys are diseased, the albumen, the life property of the blood, escapee through their walls and passes away in the water, while the urea, the kidney poison, remains, and it is this kidney poison in the blood, that, circulating throughout the entire body, affects every organ, and produces &U the above symptoms. SI re’* is the D for the huThereforeT we say confidently that.11 MOST EFFECTIVE MEDICINE EVER I) man race, it is the cornice* remedy which, overcoming the common cause, removes the greatest possible number of evil effects from tho system. Let ns note a few of these diseases and how they are affected by kidney poison, and cured by

In fact, one of the best oculists In the country says that half the patients that come to hint with bad eyes, upon examination he discovers are victims of kidney disorder.

For this purpose, leading medical authorities, after a thorough examination of all claimants for the honor of being the only specific for those organs, have awarded the prize to „ Warner’s SAFE Cure.’1 • Every reputable physician will tell you that rheumatism is caused • by an acid condition of the system.
