Housekeeping Hints.

Cracks in stoves may be effectually
stopped by paste made of ashes and salt
mixed with water.
Wash the glasses of pictures with q
dampened newspaper dipped into whiting,
and rub dry with a newspaper. I'd !,
Soap-suds will eventually destroy the
polish on marble fire-places, tables, &C., il
used in washing them. The potash in the
soap decomposes the carbonate of lime and
causes the destruction.
Lace curtains should never be ironed.
Wash and starch them, using in the rinsing
water a tablespoonful Of powdered borax.
This makes them very stiff. When wet,
spread on a sheet either on the floor or bed,
and pin down firmly every two or three
inches. Let them dry several days and
they will look very nice.
All kinds. of poultry and meat can be
cooked quicker by adding to the water in
which they are boiled little vinegar, or a
piece Of lemon. BY the use of an acid,
there will be considerable saving of fuel, as
well as shortening of time. It's action is
beneficial on old, tough meats, rendering
them quite tender and easy to be digested.
Tainted meats and fowls will lose their bad
taste and odor if cooked in this way, and if
not used too freely, no taste of it will be
acquired.

UihCe,
We clip the following from the Oneid,
Circular. Its views are sound in theory
and their practical adoption at the Oneids
Home, explains, in some measure, tn,
extraordinary financial success of thai
wonderful association. These views are
precisely what we want to inculcate in
VirginiasadWhen her people adopt them
they have taken a long step toward indus.

"What office do you hold in this institu.
ton ~ visitor inquired of member OF
the Oneida Community who had graduated
with honor from college and theological
seminary and officiated as church-paster
previous to joining the Community.
II hold at present the office of DISH
Rinser,' was the simple reply. al,a
ltnever occurs to member of the Com
munity that one kind of work is degrading
IN itself while another is teleyating. 1t is
understood that the character of labor is
determined by its associations and by the
spirit in which it is performed. Our respect
for men is measured by their real character
and actions, not at all by their temporary
circumstances. Official position carries
with it no rewards not within the reach of
the faithful laborerin subordinate positions.
The temptations of official position excite
no envy. There is no striving, no intriguing
for official responsibility. You might live
in our midst for years, and not hear sin
gle word from a disappointed aspirant for
office. Indeed, if the members were not
inspired with an earnest desire to serve the
cause to the best of their ability, many
important offices would long go a-begging.
No one need be told that our individual
and collective happiness is greatly increased
III consequence of our freedom from official
strivings; while the community is likely
to be better served officially than if office
were an object of ambition with us. True
merit is sure to manifest itself and be re-
cognized. The best man to organize and
guide inevitably gravitates to his high place
of trust in such state of society, and all
around him will cheerfully acknowledge
his leadership. g
The grand secret of our harmony in re-
spect to the question of labor and of Office
is that we have learned, on the one hand,
to respect one another according to charac-
ter regardless of position, and, on the other
hand, to consider that all labor may be
made an ordinance of worship. 4s.1.'. ...

What Religion Is.

1t is the most fatal of all mistakes, to
judge that the loving sense Of God, in the
soul, is one which we may have or want,
indifferently. 1t is an absolute necessity
to our being. Religion is not separate
department of human knowledge, : a
branch, like other branches of human in
quiry. 1t is rather the old encompassing
atmosphere, in which, whatever be our stud
les or works, we can alone truly breathe
and live; the one inspiring influence, which
alone puts soul into our efforts, and gives
them divine meaning. Religion is the
sum of the whole inner nature, intellec-
ttual, moral and spiritual, without which all
is sterile, cold, and dark.

THE ALD1NE, while issued with all the regu.
larity, has none of the temporary or timely in
terest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It
is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and
graceful literature, and collection of pictures,
the rarest specimens of artistic skill in black
and white. Although each succeeding number
affords a fresh pleasure to its frienus, the real
value and beauty of THE ALDINE will be most
appreciated after it has been bound up at the
\ close of the year. While other publications may
claim superior cheapness as compared with
rivals of a similar class, THE ALDINE is a
unique and original conception--alone and un-
overwhelmingly without competition in
price or character. The possessor of the volume
just completed cannot duplicate the quantity of
fine paper and engrayinss in any other shape or
number of volumes for ten times its cost
