DUTIES OF MOTHERS TO CHILDREN.

Every Parent Slionltl Kcjard tlio_RearIn of Daughters as a Trust* '.

A great (lrtd lias been said and written of tbe obligation* of children to their parents. but it is a rare thing to hear anything of the parents' obligation to their children. Vet a much weightier obliga tion rests on the parents than on the children in their relations to one another. While a child should never forget that his mother 1s his (Jod given mentor, the mother should remember that !k*r children are merely given ia her charge by heaven to be trained for homes of their own, to do their work in the world as she has done hers. Parents are too prone to regard their childrenvns mere adjuncts of their own, yithout right of independent thought or action, or to regard them as mere plaything* and allow them to lead a butterfly existence in search of pleasure.

Only so far

JUS

trust and protects her children from foes •within and from foes without, will she be •worthy o' their honor and respect. She must make her children fellow workers •with her, not slaves to obey her commands. There are parents who are mere taskmasters, who never rise to the dignity of father or mother, and who yet consider their children ungrateful because they seem eager to leave the home life of dull drudgery for a chnncj of pleasure and beauty in the •world outside. Children owe no gratitude to parents who have made them mere drudges and have not been guides to them in their life's work.

There is ai other class of mothers who look upon their children as merely ornamental bric-a-braj—who dress them beautifully !'nd feed them well, but bring them up with little ambition beyond a desire to Jiave a good time. Such children grow up •with little thought of the family aires at homo. The daughter who has been taught to consider herself as merely an ornamental piece never thinks of sharing her mother's cares, The mother has never made her a confidante has failed to remember that she may need in future years the exact training which such a confidence •would impart to her. She cannot bring herself to look upon her child as one who will one day have responsibilities of her own to meet, and who must be trained to meet them. Every indulgence will prove jbut another loadstone to drag the girl [down when she will need every power to lift her into true womanhood.

None sufTer so bitterly in after life as tbo«e who arc pampered with every indulgence in girlhood. They have no training to meet the trials and care" that must fall to the lot of every one. There is something shocking to a thinking person in the idea of young girls rnshiug thoughtlessly iiway for a good time, while the mother has all the responsibility of the household upon her. The housemaid may bo in a state of opeu rebellion and the cook may have just given warning yet the daughter fails to consider for a moment that any extra obligation rests on her. She has never been trained to think that she owes any obligation, that she has any duties to perform in the household, unless it is possibly tho care of her own room.

Even in homes where the mother has but one servant, lie daughter is frequently left to go to school and to attend to her little round of social duties among her intimates, but she

IWI-H

no legitimate part in the work

of the household. She is utterly unprepared to assume tho reins of household management, in case her mother is taken ill. She may be a girl in her teens, old enough to take her mother's place and 1111 it with dignity.

It is curious in these days to read of Theodosia Burr sitting at the head of her father's table and receiving his distinguished guests at the age of fifteen. Though mothers may wisely object to their young daughters being thrust irfto society «t so early an age, still a daughter should lie so trained that she is able even at an earlier age to (111 her mother's place with •wisdom if she be called on to do so. She must bo trained from her childhood to be a wise and gentle helpmeet, not a selfish pleasure seoker.—Now Vork Tribune.

Reading Aloud.

As a source of pleasure few employments equal that of reading with somo congenial companion. When she lends "the beauty of her voice" to high poetic thoughts or to the instructive volume, or with gay accents brings out the flavor of the humorous and quaint conceits of others, how intensely wo enjoy, how thoroughly we appreciate! "With little pauses for criticism and exchange or opiuion, we go on, page after page, bringing fresh pleasure to our liter Rry telo a-tetc. 4 Aud ever after tho story or poem has for us an added charm. Voars may elapse, yet when we see again the look our mem ories recall the scene of its first perusal— tho vine shaded piazza, with the summer sounds and scents or tiie snowy day, when

a

"tumultuous privacy of storm" inclosed us as in sanctuary or the long winter evening, when tho lamp's glowing radiance and the bright fire enhanced our comfort* and mind and body were equally soothed and delighted.

Some women neither know nor care for this delightful pastime. They fancy that a special training by a teacher of elocution is essential to fit them for the proper ren dering of the thoughts of others, and that 3t is not worth whilo to attempt to gain the accomplishment, as they have uo special aptness for it, ignoring the fact that reading aloud is one of the talents to be seen red by ft judicious investment of the great talent of time.

Clear and distinct enunciation, a well trained eye And ready comprehension of tho author's meaning are essentials easily Acquired, and the practice of this delightful accomplishment gives so much pleasure that it is recommended as an important contributor to that happiness which every loving heart would fain bring into the lives of others.—Harper's Bazar.

A Girl*# Own Room.

Somebody once said. "Show me a woman's lied room and I will tell you what she is like." It l» natural for every girl to tvnnt her own little nest to look

AS

ily If'V^

pretty as pm-

sible, and 1 wish I could encourage her in this. Let her learn to have around her the books that are really hem, the

photographs

of her special friends little bits of bric-A-brac which she has picked up here and there and which were given her at Christmastide or on her birthday. Put all these where they will ahovr at their best, and do not be afraid of famishing even your bedroom with too many books or

pictures. Kemember. though, that it is your bedroom and that you must leave sufficient space to move around, to dress ,aml undress, ami that you must not lumber your dressing table with trifles of no moment, when you want the room for your brush's* and the numerous lioxes and, bottles th?"i hold your toilet belongings.

An overcrowded bedroom is a horrorand an inconvenience. Have one or two big easy chairs with a view not only of the comfort of today, but of the time when it is possible you may be a bit of an invalid, and want a comfortable chair to enshrine you. These cbairs need not be richly upholstered oues, but instead of rattan or wood made delightful with great big soft cushions, luxuries, by the by, that, when bought, are rather expensive. However, the girl who is making her room look pretty can beg one or. two pillows, not in use. from the household store, and covering them with gay silk wrought over with embroidery silk and tinsel thread can have them to look as rich as those gotten at the smartest upholsterer's.—Ruth AShmore in Ladies' Home Journal.

Girls, Von May Eat Plenty of Ico Cream.

Dr. Herstey reports three cases of gastrin

ulcer

mother is true to her

in which recovery had followed the use of a diet of ice cream. This novel method of treatment was suggested to him by the experience of a patient, a woman of thirty-five, who had for three months suf fered from symptoms of gastric ulcer. She had hjematemesis and severe pain, and could retain nothing until by chance she one day took a small quantity of icecrcam. She had lost twenty-five pounds in weight.

As all ordinary methods of dieting had failed, the patient at her own desire was allowed ice cream, and told to take as much of it as she could. Hersevere symptoms at once began to subside, and at the end of two months, during which from one to three quarts of ice cream were tak daily, she had gained twenty-four pounds in weight. Solid nourishment was gradually added to her diet, and she made complete recovery.

Dr. Herstey had a similar experience with two other patients, in one of whom there were .symptons of perforation and local .peritonitis, and he is. naturally in clined to think highly of tho mode of treatment and to recommend its use in similar cases. He bcMprew that the ice cream in those cases is beneficial because of the local anaesthetic action of the cold permitting digestion togo'on without pain, while at the same time sufficient material for digestion and nourishment is supplied in tho cream.—Americau Medical News.

The Sccret of a Mother's Training.

I once knew a lady whose son, a yttle lad of ten, was the admiration of every ono for his beautiful manners. While he was perfectly simple, frank and boyish, his manners were as assured anil correct as those of a growu man. His mother could send him in a carriage alone to the station to bring a lady guest from tho station, certain that he would give her every needful attention. He would take the checks, care for the baggage and bring her to the house with every courtesy. And always when visitors were at his home he did his little share of entertaining them. He was quick to wait upon them and to show them every x-espect, and, though he was not forward, he was quite ready to converse with them if they seemed so inclined. "How do you manage it? What course of training do you pursue?" people used to inquire. "Well," I heard his mother answer, laughingly, at one time, "for one thing I nover snubbed him. He has no idea that there are people in the world who do not like boys. He supposes that everybody is as friendly as he himself. Then I have always brought him up to take care of me, and be polite to me, and I am as careful to be considerate and courteous to him as 1 am to his father. So he never has to be put on his good manners they are the habit of his life. I think that is about all there is to it."—American Youth.

Tho Painstaking Wife and Motheq.

In spite of all that has been said about the reckless extravagance of women, tho fact remains that a majority of them do strive conscientiously to save their husband's money. Too much has been spoken and written about the improvident -wife who expends her nominal lord and master's hard earned salary in personal finery and the acquisition of elegant fittings frr her home. It is high time that a word should bo said in behalf of tho painstaking wife and mother, who, if sho cannot add to the family purse, can at least—and does —savy for it.

Who knows how often and uncomplainingly she denies herself little pleasures and luxuries rather than increase by a single item the already heavy household accounts? It is uot pleasant for a woman to go shabby herself nor to see her home appear old fashioned. It takes a stronger quality of moral courage than she is generally credited with for her to look the other way when sho seas a handsome piece of furniture marked "a bargain." or to cross the street to avoid passing an attractive dry goods shop.—New Vork Recorder.

Keeping a Uusbaml a I.over.

During a discussion relating to the management of husbands, Mrs. Yardley, a New York literary woman, said that one great danger to marital happiness arose from seeking outside sympathy when the charms of romance, poetry and sentiment found the dead level of reality. "The troubles of married people," she said, "should be guarded as sacred secrets, for then the differences are more easily adjusted and harmony may be restored. One great cause of turmoil is the money relation. Auother is that man in his friction with the world forgets how wearing are the small irritations of life. He is tired and docs not wish to listen to the uninteresting details of a woman's small trials. "The wife grows still and preoccupied and dull, which furnishes him with an excuse for neglecting her, so they drift away from each other. A woman should never allow herself to grow dull and uninteresting if she would keep her husband a lover. If she would preserve the romance of the courting time she must be as entertaining and anxious to pleaise asjn the days of the wooing."

The Children's Confidant,

Mothers, do you know, do you really know, what your children are about? Is there that con licence between you and your children which should exist? Arc you their chosen friend? Until that is the case some of your duty has been left undone. Don't say that jour child is reserved or seems secretive, for when this is so it is invariably the fault of the parent. Let your intimacy with the children be of such a nature that you will know their goings and comings* their virtues and their vices, their faults and failings. Let the bond be so close that great revelation of their character cannot come to you second hand.

Mom

the

children are easily ted into confi­

dence, but none can be driven. But the confidence must begin early. Mamma takes baby on her knee at nightfall, and,as

wCe nightgown is pfut on, baby tells all the wonderful things that "Dollie" has done and is about to dp tomorrow. Mamma hears with pleasure that is not feigned, and baby that in "dee mamma" she has a delighted listener.—Leisure Hours. ""PP ~T—T $ ^Ccrmau Women.- .:

One of the most striking proofs of,the backward state of civilization in Germany is the undoubted inferiority of the women to the men. This, is to be noticed in all. ranks and conditions of life, and is the more curious since the German girl usually receives an admirable education, not only in "book learning," but also in cookery and needlework. Yet after her marriage she accepts her position at the "Hausfrau" aml "Hausmutter," with fe^y ideas or aspirations beyond her kitchen and nursery, and no topics of conversation except the iniquity of her servants "and the extravagance of Ler neighbors. "v

Her husband, on the other hand, is, as a rule, original ^md intelligent and would be an agreeable conversationist if. he were not too argumentative. In theatrica.1 matters the same coutmst may ba noticed. The actors are invariably better than tl.e actresses, the tenors and baritones outshine the sopranos and contraltos even 1.he male ballet dancers are, more agile and graceful than their short petticoated colleagues.—Corn hill Magazine.

Kconouiy in Sweeping".

The advisability of giving every apartment a vigorous "broom cleaning" at least once a week has been

Saving in tho Kitchcn.

They say that by chopping up lemon or orange peel, putting the pieces in a bottle and pouring a little alcohol over them, you get as good flavoring for rice puddings as you could jvish and all cooks know, or should know, tho value of every crumb of bread. Every scrap of cold vegetables may be used as salads or garnishes, and every bone is valuable foi* stock, as well as every spoonful of gravy.

Besides the delightful feeling that she is lessening the cost of living by thus utilizing what would otherwise go to waste.it ought to give an intelligent woman great pleasure to conduct the household affairs on a strictly business basis whether she is rich or poor.—New York Tribune.

Amusing Klectrio Toy.

Make a hollow box 1 }4 inches deep and a foot square line the bottom with ordinary window glass, or better still, plate looking glass have a sheet of common or plate glass to form tho cover. Now cut out of paper a variety of little figures and put them into fch£ box, together with a few small feathers and any other light substances then rub the surface of the glass cover with a warm, dry silk handkerchief. In a minute the figures and feathers become electrified and asume an erect position, dancing around at a rapid rate to every motion of the rubber, causing much amusement to the looker on.—New York Advertiser.

Dry Celery for Seasoning.

Before celery is used on the table it is a good plan to keep the roots, leaves and trimmings and put them in the oven when the fire is uearly out to dry thoroughly Then grate the roots and rub everything together through a sieve and use for seasoning. This bit of economy is recommended by a Frenchman, who says that in a well regulated kitchen everything may be put to some good use if a housekeeper is careful and "brainy."—Exchange.

Fresh Tablecloths.

Red tablecloths and napkins lose their fresh, red color soon unless carefully handled. They should be soaked for half an hour in cold water, then put quickly through lukewarm suds, rinsed in salt water and hung up immediately.—New York Journal,

Mrs. Fawcett, the English lecturer, supports her claim for woman's suffrage by stating that there are 88,000 women landowners in England and Wales, and that of these 20,000 arc engaged in farming on their own account.

The gold thread used in so much of the fashionable decorative work sometimes becomes a little dull or tarnished, but if pure in quality it can be restored to its original beauty by pressing It with a moderately hot fiatiron.

But looking at the matter in an unprejudiced light, one cannot clearly see why a drawing room, inhabited, perhaps, only for a few hours of the afternoon and evening, or an unoccupied, guest chamber, should require the same amount of purification demanded by a sewing, sitting or dining room.

The dustpan and brush are labor saving machines that do not receive due appreciation. By their aid in removing a little, dust here and there the business of sweeping a whole room may be deferred at times, when at the first glance anything less than a complete routing out, of furniture and •dirt together would seem iimpossible.—New

Tito Hair.'

Too constant washing of the hair is unnecessary as well as harmful. Once a week is quite often enough for cleanliness as well as for maintaining the strength of the hair. The same rfemark applies to constant brushing, for continual brushing, especially with hard brushes, should be avoided. There is a common notion that greasing the hair is vulgar so man^ other persons fall into the other extreme and uever apply any pomade at. all.

After tho hair has been washed it is certainly beneficial to apply some form of simple grease or oil. When the nead hair is becoming rapidly thinned some stimulating material, such as ammonia and cantharideg, added to the oil, will increase its good effects.—Hall's Journal of Health.

TEACHING SEWIMI.

isN

YOUNG WO

IofNothing

As yet no statistics have been gathered about the sewing machine teacher.: She has' not even attracted the attention of any of -the .numerous societies which devote themselves to investigating the working girl. The sewing machine teacher is one of the hewer of the four hundred or more occupations into which women have entered in the past three decades.

It is also one in which women have a monopoly. Except in the wise of heavy factory machines, all the teachers are of the gentler sex. She has some interesting experiences too. llEIi DUTIES.

At 8 in the morning she is expected to be at the company's office. There she reports the number of places where she called the day previous, how long she spent in each place, what sort of care is being given the machines, if it be a machine placed on trial, whether the party is likely to buy or not, or whether they have just got it because they want the use of it for nothing. Then sho is given a listf of new machines sent out in her district. It is nearly 9 o'clock when she starts out. She is expected to call in twenty or thirty places before quitting work at 6 o'clock. Asa matter of fact, she manages to give seventeen or eighteen lessons on an average each day.

Her salary is uot an exorbitant one, though she seldom complains of it. She certainly is better off than the factory or salesgirl. She must bo able to speak two languages at least. In the up town districts English and German are indispensable. Down town, English and German and ability to make herself understood to the Ital ians and Russians of the sweat shops lire requisite.

As a rule a girl takes up the role of sewing machine teacher when she is between seventeen and twenty years old. Usually she sticks to it too. In a large up town office is one young woman who has been thirteen years in the business. Sho receives a salary for her work, and in ad-' .•dition is given an agent's commission for all the machines sent out on trial which she succeeds in selling. She likes tho work, and considers herself pretty Ave 11 fixed.

Her estimate of her earnings gives an average of twelve dollars a week. The beginner is given six dollars a week. This is increased gradually if she seems likely to be a successful teacher, for there's a knack about teaching the intricacies of gusset and seam as well as in every other trade, until the maximum salary of nine dollars is reached. Some of the teachers become very expert in their knowledge of the machines, and are as capable of taking them apart and repairing them as the machinist who constructed them.

OPPORTUNITIES FOK GOOD.

The sewing machine teacher has some interesting experiences in the rounds of her work. She gets a knowledge of life, miserable and poor life usually, and an insight into the home life of the poor, strange customs and general human nature that she could acquire no other way. It requires a certain amount of philosophy, too, to make her successful teacher. As likely as not her first assignment will be to a dark and dreary back room in a tenement house, where a poor mother is trying to support her little ones making clothing for the stores. She has bought a sewing machine with newer improvements, with which she hopes to accomplish more.

The sewing machine teachcr must in all probability listen to tho whole story. And if she be at all sympathetic, and tho woman is unable to keep up her installment and loses both new and old machines, the occurrence is apt to have a depressing effect. Or she may have to go to a sweat shop where everything is overcrowded aud generally disagreeable. Or, again, it is a quiet, pleasant little Wjme nest where a little woman is anxious to help the strong right arm by doing her own sewing at home.

Yet "the many "contrasts, the heartrending talcs and the contact with hard, unlovely poverty seldom makes the sewing machine teacher uuNvomanly or bitter. She is a jolly, happy, sympathetic woman with a great well of thankfulness in her heart because her own lot is so much easier than some others.

Sometimes she makes good use of her powers of observation, and the results make startling little stories. For a newspaper woman there is nothing like the occupation of the sewing machine teacher as a means of gaining useful knowledge.— New York News.

Items About Shoes.

Evening shoes are more often than not made of the same material as the dress they are destined to be worn with. The trimming runs to embroidery rather than to bows and buckles. A pretty shoe, called the Hussar, iu black patent leather slashed with gold, bine or bright red. Velvet shoes may be commended to those who prefer to study comfort before appearance. Morocco shoes with jet butterflies on the toes may be had in bright red, light blue, old gold and in gray. A satin shoe, which is just as piquant as it is pretty, nas a rather high front, embroidered on both sides, and long silk laces that are twisted several times around the ankle and tied in a bow. Another example in satin is covered with a line network of gold. It is just the sort of shoe to wear with a dance dress.

The shape of tbe hand is taken as a guide to character so the shape of the foot should be. Quick witted, sprightly women are never flat footed dull ones generally are. Flat feet are not pretty, but they may be improved by instep pads. These can be had at any bootmaker's. The smartest boots are patent leather and glove kid, with pointed toes, and are much arched beneath the instep. Spats and gaiters are to be much worn with shoes. They are made in several shades of tan, In black and in dijrk I dare say they are comfortable, but they nuke the ankles look big and clumsy.

Child iioT«niracnt.

The question of the government of little children is a vexed one. A great many parents seem to think that baby should grow up to have her own sweet way and continue to be a law unto herself until some indefinite time, when she infringes so far on the rights of those around her as to necessitate repression. The time to begin governing baby is at the time when she first shows an absolute will of her own.

A little baby in long dresses needs government iis much as at any period of her childhood. It is marvelous to observe at how young an ago a baby will learn that by screaming stye can obtain her will. It is very easy to train a child when it is little to eat and sleep at regular intervals. A very young child will often cry for the light, but if it is indulged in such a whim it is quite likely to turn night into day, a dissipation which tells «is much on its health as on tho comfort of those about it.

Subjecting the child strictly to tho iron rules of hygiene in the matter of food and sleep will very soon bring the most obstinate of infants into a placid and in course of time afar more happy state of mind than if it had its o\Vn way. It requires possibly one or two battles, but uot more. As the little one grows up it should always be made to recognize the rights of others and to understand that its own rights are recognized.

There is a species of firm yet gentle government which is always the most successful, because it wins the heart of the child. While the mother must uot yield in the enforcement of what she believes is for the thild's best good, she should do it in
