TIE TO THE HOME GIEL

SHE IS THE LOVELIEST OF ALL AND MAKES THE BEST WIFE.

A Cliolco Gem in the Matrimonial Market, Sho T* Regarded as the Salvation of True Womanhood.—Sho I# BajferJy

Sought vUter by the Men.

The home is the paradise of life on this mundane sphere, its inflaence being supreme in molding character and disposition. The head and front of home is woman. It is her bower, of which she can make a paradise or a hell for its inmates. To be an exemplary homekeeper (not house keeper, for that is of secondary importance), a young woman must be trained and educated into it. She must know the routine work, the management of household affairs and how to minister by heart and hand to the comfort of its inmates. In order to do this she must possess a love for home, and not IKJ ever restless and ready to leave it and go out into the uncertainties of life outside its sacred precincts.

When a young woman shows an inclination to remain at home rather than go out into the world which site is unfitted for, she hbould receive the praises rather than the condemnation of friends and relatives. Where stern necessity compels her to support herself, she would be less than a true woman if she failed to do so. The best philosophy of human happiness is to make the best of whatever position we are placed in. Many young women go out into the world to v. ork simply because they are reproached by friends for not doing so, hence the derisive appellation of "home girl" so commonly used. Considered in its right light, it is a glorious one for young women to aspire to. The true home girl is a queen in the kingdom of womanhood, and a jewel that young men strive for when ready to settle down in life.

TIIK HOME GIRt..

Every well regulated household, with half a dozen or so in the family, needs other help than that which an overworked mother can give, and it is just as well to keep one of the daughters at home to render such assistance as is necessary as to hire outside help. It would be far better for the young womnn and the home as well. It must be confessed that many are averse to helping mother keep the house in order, and not a few daughters are so shiftless as to fail to care for their own rooms.

The home girl, though sho may not know it, is -fulfilling a grander and nobler mission by her devotion to home than a dozen of her girl frieuds out in tho world. She has planted herself in woman's natural sphere, doing woman's truest labor, and endearing herself to those around the heart hstone which she graces. Iler budding charms are blooming into the choicest, flowers that should grace womanhood, and will inako her life a halo, a sunshine for those whom fnte destines to 1MS near her.

The home giri has confidence in and knows the value of a mother, who is the ideality that keeps pure her mind, aspira tlons and desires. To her she goes for sympathy and counsel, and if she is of fended by relative, friend or lover mother knows alt. She values her lady friends highly, hut she does not put the confidence in them she does in her mother. Her mother was a girl outre ami experienced all the phases of girlhood, and has had the experience and possesses the right kind love to ndvisU the daughter rightly.

A young man of a brilliant turn of mind was paying attention to a young lady sev eral years ago, when tho fates, as he termed it, parted them, lie went west and remained two years. Correspondence was about his only diversioi.. and it is needless to say his sweetheart was his worst victim. Upon his return ho touched upon their correspondence, and remarked: "I suppose you and your lady friends had some laughable times over my tiresome and foolish letters," to which she replied, "No, Will I read them to no ono but mother."

Stlti IS SOUGHT AFTKK.

To him this was an anomaly, so much so that he thought the mother knew his faults too well to surrender her daughter to him, and ho never could muster up tho courage to ask her to make the sacrifice. If he iind only known sho read her letters to mother. She was a home girl.

The homo is the proper place for the development of those virtues in woman which poets have sung and written of for ageH, and any young woman who is so situated in life that she can remain at homo should consider herself fortunate, nod appreciate that home in the highest possible manner. Her friends who nreoUtin the world may le brighter and more brilliant for it, but it is at the sacrifice of a more ennobling virtue. They may receive more attention and be in greater demand among gentlemen, but the sensible fe'llow who turns bis mind to mat rimotiy seldom prefers them to the home girl

As a company for an evening at the opera or a party any young lady oC a vivacious turn of mi mi will serve the purpose, and this is why some young men are so variegated in their attentions. Hut when they begin to look upon the serious side of such association the home girl has decidetKv the advantage. She Is a woman in the truest sense of the word, and has developed into such by her devotion to home, and when she is sought and won the winner has a trophy that he and the world will prize in after life. The home girl is a choice gem in the matrimonial market, and is growing choicer in spite of the de rision of a practical world. Mny she become more numerous!—Chicago Herald.

)lmi*Uoli Health.

Bright, cheery bedrooms, clean bathrooms ami airy, well lighted kitchens mean a large measure of household health, and do more than most people realise in promoting mutual and spiritual as well as Iwdily growth aud strength. In city houses the bathroom is one of the most important points to be guarded. It is absolutely imjHwsible to keep the air of a dark, unvenlated bathroom pure and swet:, and such a room which can receive fresh .-in- ouly through the halls of the house is an outrage against all laws of health aud decency.

The first requisite of a bathroom nnd its accompanying water closet is absolute leanUtu»s, ami one should look Ions eare.'ully l*fore select inga residence where has no oi!tki»* window If tho in his own or is a perma* i? he will find that he can easily -.vuh the grace of art and so rvnrn what every nwfwarj- roam

HOW TO DRE8S CHILDREN

Xke Material Should Be Fine, Although the Style May Be Very Plain. The maternal prida that prompts all «nothers to dress their children as well as possible under adverse circumstances also induces them to spend many an hour over their clothes -without begrudging either the labor or time. Fortunately, the most appropriately dressed girls are the plainest clothed but, by being plain In style, it does not follow that the little frock is not to be of a dainty material, tastefully made and in a becoming manfler. Do not put too somber a coloi upon a sad faced child neither have all around sashes on a stout little figure, which requires tapering effects.

A little thonght will soon settle this part of the task, which is the simplest Blouse suits of the cottons imitating flannel lawn tennis flannel, which is part cotton, and all wool blue and white flannel and serge are the most comfortable of play dresses, and for little ones nothing can replace them. If trimmed in any manner, let itbe with cotton or woolen braid, according to the material of the dress. Sew the gathered skirt, which is amply full and hemmed, to a silesia trnderwaist, and have a sailor blouse, with the regular sailor collar and coat or shirt sleeves, with around neck or tiny band as preferred. Misses wear the blouse suits made in a similar style, and their half worn skirts may be entirely worn out with two or three odd blouses made in this fashion, or as belted waists of wash surah or striped tennis flannel.

Nainsook for gimps may be had ready tucked, or the white embroidery can be used. Separate gimps are advocated, as they are easier to wash. White frocks are of plain nainsook or embroidered flouncing, twenty-seven inches wide. Those of last season may be remodeled by adding a waist belt of insertion, vest of tho same and revers of edging over a tucked gimp. If the skirt is too short, lengthen it with a row of insertion let in. Plaid and striped ginghams are always neat with accessories of embroidery, and small figured sateens ai'e frequently made over for little ones and worn with the inevitable gimp, which is called an "American idea," though it originated in France.

Any dress to be made over for a young girl can have new sleeves, yoke and skirt border of tartan plaid woolen goods, cut bins. This may be used for any plain, dark woolen goods, and if the renovated dress is of striped material the extra portions added are of plain casfhrnere. Their sleeves are full, collars high, or plaited and turned over, and the skirts are usually full and gathered. Round waists, jacket bodices and pointed basques having full fronts, are worn by young girls, with full vests, girdles, half belts and cuffs similar to those worn by older girls. The only silk addition made to their toilets is of surah or India silk in small figures.—Ladies' Home Journal.

Tho Father of Photography.

What fact more commonplace to our mind than the photographic process of portrait taking! Ma$y of us remember tho original form of these sun pictures— the daguerreotype, specimens of which, once in awhile, we draw forth from some unexplored drawer, carrying us back to the forgotten days of childhood. It was no further off than 1838 that Madame Daguerre, the wife of the inventor of the process, had an earnest consultation with one of the mcdical celebrities of the day concerning her husband's mental condition. After acquainting the physician with the many indications of Daguerre's mental aberration, sho added, with tears in her eyes, that tho concluding proof of his insanity was his absolute conviction that he would succeed in nailing his own shadow to the wall or in fixing it on magical metallic plates.

The physician listened with profound attention to this culminating evidence of mental derangement, answering that he, himself, had observod in Daguerre strong symptoms of madness. He closed the consultation by advising that her husband should be sent quietly and without delay to the well known lunatic asylym, Bicetre. Two months later the world of art and science was stirred to its center by the exhibition of a number of pictures actually taken by the new process. Arago, in January, 1889, laid an account of the process before the Academic ties Sciences, and soon the "lunatic" was heralded as the father of photography.—Arena.

A Husband's Trick.

The devices that men employ to fool their wives as to the hour at which they reach home are numerous, but a newspaper man hit on a new one not long ago. It is queer the same trick has not been adopted with enough frequency to have become popular. This man has a clock in his house that strikes "1" at the. half hour, and when he lias night off he gauges himself to get home a few minutes before some half hour. If it is 4 o'clock he waits until about 4:20, and then he goes bustling in, making noise enough to wake np the dead. The sleepy wife throws the covers off her head and says: "Oh! is that you? What time is it?' The husband replies carelessly: "Time? Nearly 1,1 guess I don't know exactly, my dear." By this time the clock strikes

4,1"

and the wife is satis­

fied. Long before the hour of 5 is reached the wife is again fast asleep, and she never suspects her lord and master has played it on her.—Chicngo Herald.

The Largest Farm In the World. In the extreme southwest corner of Louisiana lies the largest producing farm in the world. Measuring 100 miles north and south and 25 miles east and west, it is owned and operated by a syndicate of northern capitalists. The 1,500,030 acres of the tract were purchased in 1883 from the state of Louisiana,and frwnj^,United States government.v%

At that tim-a it was a vast grazing land for the cattle of the few dealers of the neighborhood, over 30,000 head of half wild horses and cattle being thereon. Now this immense tract is divided into convenient pasture stat ions, or ranches, existing every six miles. The fencing alone cost in theneighborhood of S50.000. The land is best adapted for rice, sugar, corn and cotton. Ail cultivating, djtching, etc.. is done by steam power.

A tract, ..say, half a mile wide, is taken, and an engine is placed on each side. The engines are portable and operate a cable attached to four plows, and under this arrangement thirty acres a day are gone over with only the labor of three men. Harrowing, planting and other cultivation is done in a like manner. There is not a single-draught horse on the entire pWce.

Of course horses are used for tho herders of cattle, of which there are 16,000 head. The Southern Pacific railway runs for thirty-six miles through the farm. The company have three steam bo'ats operating on the waters of their estates, of which there are 300 miles navigable. They have also an icehouse, a bank, a shipyard and a rice mill.—Spare Moments.

Therefore not only a common fire, but even a lighted eandle (to say nothing of lamps or gas), when kept in a well closed (or, more properly speaking, an ill closed) room, wherein the external air has not a free access, renders the air of that room uoxiouB in an incredibly short space of time. The remedy is in our own hands. It is for us mothers and housewives not only to give instructions, but to personally see that the upper sash of at least one window in each living room is opened all day long, and then gradually to accustom ourselves, our children, and all over whom we have control, to sleep with them in that position. We should quickly find our own restless nights become peaceful, while Our little ones would have the proper proportion of oxygen so essential to their young lives.'—London Queen, 1 IlcligiouB Observances Among Japanese.

Tho religion of the Japanese women must appear very complicated and confused to their little kiddy brains when even the most learned priests of their country lose themselves in ftheir cosmogonies, their symbols, their i*etamorpho6es of gods in that miMenaVipchaos upon which the Buddhism of India has so strangely foisted .jtself without destroying anything. Their tnost serious cult seems to be that of their defunct ancestors. These shades of familiar gods possess in each household a perfumed altar, before which the living pray long at morning and night, without, however, believing absolutely in the immortality of the soul and in the persistence of the human ego as understood by our occidental religions.

To the religious contradictions which baffle us must be added superstitious as old as the world, tho strangest or the gloomiest, and fearful to listen to at night Beings half gods and half ghost haunt the biaclt darkness at crossways in tho woods stand ancient idols gifted with singular powers there are miraculous stones in the depths of forests. And to have an approximate idea of the faith of these women with small oblique eyes, one must reduce to chaos all that I have just said, then try to transpose it into giddy brains that laughter prevents most of the time from thinking, and that seem at moments to have the heedlessness of the brains of birds.-—Pierre Loti in Harper's.

About Gloves at Might.

Some odd notions creep into print about toilet treatment. One lately says that wearing gloves at night wrinkles the hands and makes them yellow. That depends entirely on the care taken in the matter. Worn as sleeping gloves usually are, as long as they will hold together, soiled to begin, soaked with repeated dressings of cold cream, not too good at the start, and rancid with the heat of wearing them for hours longer than a woman ever wears gloves for dress, unless at a ball, it is no wonder they turn the skin yellow and draw it into wrinkles.

Soaking the hands with olireoil, almond oil or vaseline will yellow them in time, as the skin takes the hue of oiled paper or parchment. But choosing a pair of easy fitting old gloves, well cleaned inside as well as out, the hands, not the gloves, well rubbed with any wholesome dressing, they cannot but be very much improved by the wearing. It, is not easy to see why itshould be injurious to wear gloves to sleep in any more than stockings. There is really no way of keeping housekeeping hands in order without the practice.—Shirley Dare's Letter.

Mailed His Pipe.

That the groom of one of last week's weddings was so deeply enamored of his fair bride as to foreshadow the future happiness of the conple is perhaps augured by a little incident which he does not mind telling himself. It was in the early days of their acquaintance, and he was abont mailing his first note to her. Although the missive was a comparatively unimportant, one, relating to some intended courtesy, its writing bad been mingled with much absorbing tboucht of what future notes to her might breathe, and .he walked down the street to mail it, pnffiog some very pleasant pictures frota his meerschaum. At the box 11 absorbed, he dropped, as he thought, the letter into the receptacle and retraced his steps to his apartments* As the door was reached he found the note still in his hand. What, thea, he put into the box? His pipe, ef c- .«M, and there he found it a few minuses i. .. r. bowl ont, the lor- deep Uncle Sam's mail.- sage.

Fires and the Open Window. It is needless to point out the good that a fire will do in keeping a room free from damp andall un\Vholesome moisture,and in many climates frequently saving valuable furniture—pianos in particular—from decay, nay, often ruin. But it must be clearly understood that it is not the air which is purified. but that a new, fresh and wholesome atmosphere has replaced the one that has been used np. In short, the infected air has been rarefied by the heat, and proper ventilation being provided it expels itself from the apartment. Fire and combustion in general, so far from purifying polluted air, actually deteriorate a prodigious quantity of it in a short time.

Oh, the winter time, full o' rides an' dances The summer days when we sang an' spun The meetin' house, an' the stolen glances

WOMEN IN RELIGIOUS MOVEMENTS.

What Mrs. Booth Did for Religion and the Influence She Exerted. A very remarkable scene took place in London about the middle, of October. 1890. No less than 40,000 persons gathered to witness an unusual funeral ceremony.

Mrs. Booth, the wife of the leader of the Salvation Army, was committed to the gra^g.with the peculiar rites of that organization, and this event attracted the great concourse of people mentioned.

Mrs. Booth was indeed the founder oi the religious movement called the Salvation Army. She was originally a Meth odist, and married "Gen." Booth, as he is called, who was then a Methodist preacher, when she was 25 years old.

She became very active in his church, and on one occasion, when he had a long sickness, she took his place in the pulpit, and preached with great eloquence and fervor.

Twenty-six years ago Mrs. Booth con ceived the idea of creating a mission wlmj^ under a military form and discipline should, by public displays of religious zeal, arouse the masses of the people to a more earnest religious spirit.

The corner stone of the creed of thi: singular mission was made total abstinence from all'intoxicating liquors.

Mm. Booth further made a stringen rule that all the women and girls whe entered—or enlisted in—the Salvation Army should be very simply dressed. All the vanities of jewelry and gay attire were to be renounced.

It is needless to say that this remarkable woman built up a society which has Ion-,-been a conspicuous, though somewhat pa culiar aud fantastic, religious agency, ea peciallv in Eugland.

The Salvation Army has spread, indeed, to the United States, and also to some parts •ofjJ&g*.continent of Europe. In many

A mtricun cities and to'wns lFlfas its headquarters, and its processions, bands and song singiug are sometimes witnessed in our streets but it is in England, and under Mrs. Booth's leadership, that the arn^y has had its largest and most effective influence. "No order," says an English paper, "not even the Jesuits nor the Franciscans have done so much with such limited means and in so short a time as tho Salvationists. They have rescued hundreds of thousands of Englishmen from vice and dirt."

Tliis has been done by services which, if they have been fervent, have also been cheerful and spirited, and by a discipline which is very strict in its military character.

The companies and regiments of the army have been regularly officered, and each officer has his or her distinctive uniform while the rank and file also appear in a peculiar semi-military attire. Thus, with a band oftep at their head, and flags flying, they perambulate the streets singing their military songs or, gathering at some convenient spot, listen to the fervent open air preaching of one of their orators.

Mrs. Booth's creation and leadership of this singular mission is only another instance of the active part which women have often, for centuries, taken in religions movements and societies.

The Jews had their inspired prophetesses as well as female songsters while the pagan religions admitted women among thtf" circle of their gods aDd revered their vestal virgins.

The Roman Catholics have organized their nunneries and their corps of nurses. The English church has its lady district visitors, who take care of the material and spiritual needs of the poor of the parishes while among the Quakers the spirit moves women as often as men to deliver their messages to the sedate meetings of their sect. —Youth's Companion.

Australian Caoutchouc.

In view of the threatened dearth of India rubber, and the rapid decimation which is going on in the available gutta percha trees, the statement that a supply of what may, in some respects, be an effective substitute for these useful articles of commerce is plentiful in Australia, is of interest. The Australian, caoutchouc is said to have been first observed in little sand hollows, and resembled patches of dried leather. It was found generally in swamps, and the theory of its production was that it had resulted from the overflow of petroleum or rock oil. There is still a wide difference of opinion as to the origin of the substance. Some scientific authorities ascribe it to a vegetable origin, and regard it as a gum exuding from a plant or lichen. Others assign to it a subterranean origin, but the known facte concerning it are not corroborative of this view.—New York Commercial Advertiser.

ji. nomc Made Hat Back.

An ingenious lady planned the following described hat rack, which is not only handsome but useful. A very large horseshoe of pine is covered with plush. Any color may be used the one I first saw is of very dark blue, and the color contrasts splendidly with tliecolor of the horns. Arouud the shoe nine tips of horns, each tipped with black, were placed at equal distances apart. They are fixed in place by means of screws driven from the back of the frame into blocks of waod which are fitted into the horns and held in place by small screws put through holes in the horn. From the top of the opening of the shoe a mirror framed in plush is suspended by a pretty cord.

To polish the horns is a very easy matter if rightly done. When the horns have lain long enough a few strokes on any hard substance will remove the pith. Put a few drops of carbolic acid or a little chloride of lime in the cavity, fill with earth, bury twenty-four hours and all unpleasant odor will be removed. Cover with boiling water and let them soak twenty-four hours. Then trim off all the white surface, and when the transparent part appears you can easily trim with a pocket knife.

When the white part is all removed, scrape smooth with a bit of" window glass or a knife, then sand paper. To polish use any hard substance, a bone knife handle or toothbrush handle is just the thing. Rub well with this and a smooth, polished surface will be your reward. These polished horns are becoming more popular as ladies begin to realize the numerous articles into which they may be converted.—Mary Maynard in Housekeeper.

How to Use a Thermometer. Every family should have a clinical thermometer and know how to use it. This thermometer can be obtained at any surgi£il instrument store, and is well worth the price paid for it. It has the degrees marked upon it from 90 to 113. The normal or natural temperature of the human system is 98 degs. A rise in temperature of 1 deg. or IK degs. is not of much importance, but if the thermometer indicates arise of 101 to 102 degs. be sure to take some treatment that will reduce tho temperature to 99 or 98 degs. To use the clinical thermometer give it two or three shakes, tvs you do a fountain pen, to get the mercury below the normal point place the bulb end into the mouth and under the tongue. Hold the thermometer in place with tho lips, but do not shut the teeth on it, as it is liable to break. Retain the thermometer five minutes, then withdraw it and note carefully the degree to which the mercury has extended. In the case of small children loosen their qirjes and place the bulb under the arm close up in the axilla.—Boston Globe.

iThe.Slck Room.

The sicUroom should be in tho quietest part of C?v house—away from the noise of the street, the ringing of tho door bell, the voices of family callers, and the operations of the kitchen. It should receive the disinfecting power of sunshine, and yet have the means of lessening or shutting off the light at will.

It should contain no more furniture than is necessary. In some cases a single bed is best, because it may be conveniently approached on oit her side. In other cases a double bed is preferable, in order that the patient may bo moved from one side to the other. A bed with a contrivance for lifting the occupant into a half sitting posture is often desirable.

The room should be capable of the most thoroughlfeiitilatioff. Pite^hlr is essetitlaT to those in health, but vastly more so to the sick. It is of more value than most medicines.—Youth's Companion.

Gild them aud fasten them in the center with a wire, tying a ribbon over the latter so it cannot be seen. Take a wooden wash basin and bore holes in it so it can be fastened to the lop of the rods with ribbon bows the same color as the under one. -Gild I he basin inside and out and have a pretty design pointed on the underside. Use ribbon iliat will j:o nicely with the painting.—New Yor!: Press.

Postofllre OfTW'iiilH in I'miice. By old established statute postmistresses in I ranee were practically debarred from marriage. Husbands of women employed in the postal service were prohibited from exercising trades or professions, lest such employments would offer temptations to the husband to tamper with the mails. But the government, has finally done tardy justice to the spinsters, and abolished all restrictions in tho choice of husbands by postmistresses with one exception—the husband must not serve in the capacity of police official.—Paris Letter.
