/ all; aud there is hardly little item in the
habits o.liife to be named, that contributes
so much TO comforl, as well as health, as

as well as benefit. Let him that doubts

How try it2 do you ask Any way.
A common shower bath will do. Or yoG
may stand in 'splashihg tub" or any
! other tub, and apply the water with a
sponge. Or, with little care, you may
use the sponge thoroughly without any
tub at all, and yet occasion no sour looks

sick folks; crash are soft enough for the
most delicate skin that healthy person
ever wore. The friction is needed. Your
softtowels are loathing to healthy and

dress those who take little exercise in the
open air.
A tn tub, made for the purpose, contriv-
ed oy Waterman, Of Boston, and now ex-
lensively used, is best. L is convenient 10
every respect, and when you have done
with it, it can be put in any corner with
out cunlbering your room. And then,
better than sponge - rather in addition
to sponge. it is well 10 have one of Wa

To WASH WOODEN GooDs The art
of washing WOODEN goods so as to pre-
vent them from shrinking, is ole OF the
desiderata 10 domestic economy, worthy
of being recorded, and it is therefore with
satisfaction that we explain this simple
process to our readers. All descriptions
of wooden goods should be washed 10 very
hot water with soap, and as soon as the
article is cleansed, immerse it in cold wat
er; then let it be wrung and hung up to
dry. "
IDLE CONVERSATION Don't listen to
what is bad. If your companions begin
to tell an improper story, pass and leave
them. There is bad enough in our hearts
without paying attention to what others
may relate. Give no heed to vicious con-
versatons, be above it. Inlhis way you
preserve yourselves uncontam:nated from
a thousand vices, which otherwise would
degrade your minds and vitiate yonr
thoughts. Idle-conversations and obscure
iiiusiops prevalent and increasing sins.
These degrade our youth and make them
appear 10 the eyes of virtue anything bat
innocent and lorely. Shur then every
vicious convefs tion, every impure sug-
gestion, every corrupt thought, and viz
tue will give a glory to your character
that time can never tarnish.
How To GET ON IN the ,WoRLD-
Be honest, temperate, industrious, and
mind your own business. = BarnstGbte
Patriot.
The most important qualification is
omi.ted-viz., be religious, or nj any rate,
seem So, else however honest, temperate,
industrious, and uninterfering man may
be, his prospect Of getting on 10 the world
is small indeed. The young man who
openly avows Infdelity, though he may
possess all the Requirements here spoken
of, is nevertheless doomed to disappoint3
ment; for success, as the world goes, de-
pends upon following the multitude, and
thinking, or pretending to think, that de-
grading superstition is all purity and
truth. - Boston Investigator. I'LL. .-.
