HOUSE, CLEANTNG.--As this is about the
season when good house, wives clean their
houses from garnet to cellar, it may be well to
say few words on the subject. When YOU
wash paint, don't use soft soap and warm wat
er, for that will take off the mint as well as
the dirt. Use cold water and hafd soap. Scrub
the floors with oftsoap, and don't put down
the carpets until tho floor is perfectly dry.
Always put down some fine clean (mind clean1
straw under the carpet, and lny it smooth aud
level. Carpets may be cleaned by pounding
them in strong soap suds and washing them
well out of the soap. The suds must be very
strong and cold. This is done BY cutting
down the hard soap and dissolving It IN warm
water, The suds should feel slippery betwe
the fingers. Bedsseads should receive a COM
plete scrubbing with soap and water, and
should not be put up until perfectly dry. The
seams and holes should then be anointed with
corrosive subhmate, dissolved in alcohol. on
sulphur mixed with camphene, or a solution
Of the chloride of zinc. No person should
20 to sleep in a damp bedroom. Many peo-
pie, by overlooking this caution during house
cleaning season, catch severe colds, and make
their beds with the clods Of the valley before
the subsequent Christmas. Always commence
to clean at the top Of the house, and descend
by steady and regular stages. Some people
can clean their houses with quietness and
scarce any disorder; others do no more work,
but make great deal Of noise. IF there ia
dog or a cat ebout the house, il generally dis
appears until the squat is over. The grand
rule for facilitating work Is system. Arrange
all the work to be done, and how Il IS to Be
done, before commencing. For want Of sys-
tenn, many job has to Be done over and over
again. Scientific Aa,erican.

You've FoLKs AT ScHooL.-There is good
deal of sound advice in the following hints
from cotemporary
We have word of advise for parents who
have children at school.
Your little ones are dear to, you--about as
dear, perhaps, as the apple of your eye. Their
success at school is near your heart. You are
anxious to help them along, providing helping
them will not too seriously tax you. You
know as well as VIC know, it can be done ell
ciently at cheap cost pardon us for refreshing
your knowledge on the subject with a few
hints.
Keep thsn regularly at sc'soo3-Absence of a
day is bad. They lose one day lesson. They
drop stitch by the means. 1t damages the
teachers plans, and makes it easier for the
absence to occur again. Better suffer great
inconvenience than to keep them home day
Better spend several shillings and some hours,
and do the errands yourself, than keep them
| home to run them.
! Be sure they are puactaal.--Ten minutes in
the morning does you no good, and them much
| harm. Arrive at the school-room ten minutes
too late, they disturb the punctual, lose an ex-
ercise provoke the teacher, and cultivate a
miserable habit of procrastination. The mat
ter of habit is the greatest objection, though.
In after years it sticks to body like a boy to
arunaway bare backed horse, and the harder
one runs to be clear of it, the closer it hugs
him.
They have lessons to learn out of school
Let it be held religious duty that then learn
them nell. BY this the teacher judges Of your
interest in their progress. If they are pre-
pared on these home lessons he is careful that
they get well ON in their school lessons. He
feels that he is watched he is interested for
your children and whether he means it or
not, knows it or not, he labors more Faithfully
for their advancement. If the evidences are
that you pay no attention to them at home, he
does his duty mechanically, and only hopes for
the best.
Sometimes you are little at leisure. Once
in a great while you don't know what to do
with yourself Then, we pray you, bestir
yourself, and give up an hour to visit the
school. Make suddenly your appearance in
the room where they are reciting You will
see whether the room is meanly ventilated,
close and stited pen, or a room fit for a half
hedged immortal to grow in; by whose side
they sit; whether they looked tired, weary and
languid, or as if they were careful to learn.
and doing well whether they are associating
with lads and lasses fit for their compasy, or
breathing impurities and contracting evil hab-
its, unawares, daily.
Try it a month, If you are not now doing it,
and accept our pledge that before the thir-
tieth day is up you Will see most marked
improvement in your little folks scholarly
habits and attainments, and that Won win
come to conclusion that their teacher is
one of the best in the world. If you have
never paid much attention to such things.
you will be surprised to see hoe mach the
teacher is doing for yow, and still further,
how much more he will do If he discoyers
that his efforts are recognised and appreciated.

CHILDREN. We have known religious pa
rents who purposely checked, aud crossed, and,
disappointed their children, as a system Of
home education, in order. as they alleged. to
break the natural will, and thus make it easier
for them, in after life, to deny self and practi-
cal virtue. When we see such course pur-
sued, we think of the child's remark when
asked why a certain tree grew crooked
"Somcbody rod upon it, suppose, when it
was little fellow"
Childhood needs direction and culture more
than repression. There is volume of sound,
truth in these lines:-
SHE who checks a child with terror;
Stops its play and stills its song,
Not alone cosamits an error,
But great and moral wrong.
"Giye it play and fear it,
Active life is no defect;
Never, never break its spirit,
Curb it only to direct.
"Would you stop the flowing river,
Thinking it would cease 10 fowi
Onward it would flow forever;
Better teachit where to go. "--Arfhur's Mag
