RuffleS and TuCkS.

1t occurred to me the other day, as /
passed along the street, how rare a thing
II has become to see a mother abroad with
her own little ones. She has no time,
NAV be the reply, to range about in that
aimless way But what is she doing with
her time? Is it any more aimfully spent if
she uses it to prepare little miss to mince
abroad alone in such fantastic guise as
plain old grandma epitomized the other
day, when she saw her grandchild thus
prepared, and said;
Now, daughter, just tie string to her,
and she will be ready to travel with the
hand-organ.'
1t may be that force is at work, which
for ages has accomplished what the most
earnest preaching against specific follies
has failed to do. IfFashion has mischief,
it has no less at times mission. The
windows of the cheap shops are now full
of coarse, fimsy materials, loaded with
machine work in every respect as profuse
as the richer fabrics they initiate These
caricatures may lead to the sorely-needed
discovery that excessive elaboration is
rulgar, and that may prove the happy be-
ginning of the end.
Hasten the day when we have learned
to nut away from the sewing machine what
our foolishness makes the worser part of
IL and let it be to us all the perfect gift
that it is
Finally, let us insist that whatever in
the domestic economy ought to be subor-
dipate, it is the fine sewing Never let
husband, or children, or or dinner. or
house, give way to it. If you cannot af-
ford to hire one girl and the sewing too,
then hire the sewing and do the work. At
least make the fair trial. Ifall were to
make this beginning, the great army Of
workers for bread would soon find it out,
and the result would be much greater GER

A DOSE FOR MosoUIToEs.-As the season
for these pests is at hand, we will give a re-
cent South Carolina prescription which we
have seen. We cannot vouch for it-but it
will cost little to try it. Take of gum cam
pbor piece about third the size of an
egg, and evaporate it by placing it in tin
vessel, and holding it over "A amp or candle,
taking care it does not ignite The smoke
will soon fill the room, and expel the mosqui-
toes. One night was terribly annoyed by
them, when thought of and tried the above,
after which never saw nor heard them that
night, and the next morning there was not
one found in the room, though the window
had been left open all night

PRESERVING THE Color OF DRESSES

PRESERVING THE Color OF DREssEs.-The
cOlOrs of merinos, mousseline -laines,
ginghams, chintzes, printed lawns, ETC., may
be preserved in cleansing by using water
that is only milk-warm making a lather
with hard soap, before you put in the dress,
instead of rubbing it on the material, and
stirring into the first tub of water three cents
worth of sugar of lead this will set all deli
cate colors, and should always be kept in the
house. 1t is a poison, and should be SO
labeled No colOred clothes should be al
lowed to soak in the water, but must be
washed rapidly, rinsed through two cold
waters, and stir into each tablespoonful of
vinegar, which will brighten reds and greens
After rinsing, hang them out Immediately
When ironing-dry, Cor still little damp,)
| bring them in and iron at once, as it Injuries
the colors to allow them to remain damp too
long, or to sprinkle, and roll them up in a
covering for ironing next day. If they can
not be conveniently ironed directly, let them
hang till they are quite dry, and quarter of
an hour before ironing, dampen and fold
them. The best way is not to wash colored
dresses of delicate colors on the day of the

Mock PIGEoSs.-Three pounds rump steak
in two even pieces will make two mock
pigeons. Chop the fat and mix it up with
the dressing, such as is prepared for fowls,
season with little pepper and salt, summer
savory and sweet majOram. Spread the
dressing over the steak, roll it up and tie it.
Let it simmer in enough water to cover it,
for two hours. Then take them out Of the
gravy, and brown them in a little batter.
When they are done, put them on a dish,
pour the gravy into the pan with the batter,
dust in little -four, give it one boil up.
Pour the gravy into the dish with the pigeons
and send 1t to the table hot

What the Ferns Said.

We are only leaves; no bloom
FIndeth room
On our thick upspringing green,
We are mean,
Poor and useless, but for one
Gift alone.
In the brook we see trace
of our grace;
Greenness like ours ought to hide
BY the side
OF some forest stream or pool,
Clear and cool.
NO gay birds stay here, they ny
Through the sky
To the gardens, where they find
Close enshrined,
In some fiower-cup, the color
Hardly duller
Than that flashing like a gem
Upon them.
Where gray rocks on billy crest
Stand close pressed,
With an inch Of earth between,
We are seen.
We TO tired eyes bring balm,
And n calm
To all eager souls that look
In each nook
For a pure and perfect sign
That doth shine
In our leaves; a blessed word
OF the Lord.

ing to fancy. When sufficiently done, srrew
sugar over them to your taste, and serve them

HAIR TONIC Daisy Eyebright " gives
the following, which she says are the exact
proportions for hair tonic: Take one pint
of boiling WATERPROOF it upon dozen large
branches of fresh sage, or handful OF dried
leaves, and cover it tightly for an hour. Put
into a bottle one ounce of iron filings, nails,
or any bits of iron, also,a piece of borax as
large as a walnut turn the sage tea upon
it. In two or three days it is ready for use.
