HAPPENING into one of our colored
churches last Sunday, we were not a
little amused to hear the sable orator
his unctious face glowing with piety and
pcrspiration-excla'm in an agony of
penitence: go Lord we know we are
prone to stray into by and unforbidden
paths-O Lord, have mercy upon us
poor sinners, of which am chief among
ten thousond and altogether lovely y
Our risibles were excited and fearing
we might be guilty of breach of deco

door, and left the prayer still ascend

4 CHEAP HARD SoAP.-Many house
keepers in the country know how difficult
it is to obtain a good article of bar soap
The yellow soap sold at the stores, cuts
as soft as cheese, and rubs away as easily,
and unless the housewife buys box of
soap at a time, and piles it up in stacks in
the attic or some dry place, the ycarl y re :
cord will show a goodly sum paid out for
soap purchased by the bar. The follow
ing receipt viii prove desirable item of
economy: 1S
-Four large bars Of, yellow soap; two
pounds of sal-soda, Three ounces ofboraX;
one ounce ofliquids amrhonia Shave the
the soap in thin slices; put it into eight
quarts of soft water (rain water is best.)
When the soap is nearly dissolved, add
the borax and sal-soda stir till all is mel
ted. Pour it into large tub or shall
low pan when nearly cool add the am
monia slowlB mixing it well. Let it stand
day or two, then cut it into cakes or
bars, and dry in warm place. No better
soap can be made to wash white clothes,
calicoes and hannels it is excellent for
household purposes. 1t costs but three
cents per pound, and is made in less than
half an hour. This recipe has been sold
for five dollars, and will be of service to
every family.
