go out, she does 80. and then as carefully
unrobes, folds her clothes and depostcs them

no sooner does she reach home than she must
Immediately retrace her steps-no matter
whether the weather be fair or stormy, cold
or warm. But this time she is satisfied with
simply going to the door of the place she has
just visited, when she can again return home,
with the conviction that she has done her
duty, or performed the involuntary penancc
which some invisible power has imposed
upon her. After breakfast, dinner or sup

WORTH KSowINc-"Fiy time" is fast ap.
preaching, and those troublesome little in
sects will soon make their appearance in
such numbers as TO annoy housekeepers al
most out of their wits. Repelling invasion
seems to be the watchword, and while the
gallant men of the South are up in arms TO
drive back the increasing hordes Of the North
that threaten to sweep down upon us, let net
our gentle housewives forget to arm them
selves against this equally pestiforous inva-
der of their homes. Fortunately, the wea-
pons in this case are more simple, though
equally as successful as cannon aud rifles
Take three or four onions and boil them we'll
