Two Methods of Spring Cleaning

Two INGENIOUS OF spring CIeHuIHB
tFrom Providence JOurnall
It's begun. Walking down street on O
bright morning, one may catch glimpses
Of feminine heads, enCased in turbans
whether Of mistress or maid none can
tell, and the familiar sCrubbing.brush
dust.pan and broom can be seen in vigor.
GUS action through many an open door,
where an exceptionally early house
keeper has commenced her annual war
fare against the winters accumulation OF
dust and dirt HOuse.Cleaning, like eV.
cry other reform against nature" can be
carried on in two ways; as a noisy revo-
luton, or as u more quiet growth. The
first named is, as everybody knows, the
more common way. The spring clean
ing in most families means, q stated time
OF beginning and ending at any cost oil
strength and comfort; 1t means all Ordin-
airy family life dlsarrlnged. No regu.
lar dinners, no quietness; housekeeper,
servants, or extra help, one or all, as the
case may be, working constantly until
every room in the house Is clean and spot.
less, and those who have accomplished
the work are completely used up. All
this for what? For the sake OF doing q
necessary thing in an arbitrary and fixed
manner. The other way pursued by
some women, wise In their generation, is
TO cleanse one, or at most two rooms, in q
week, beginning as early in the season as
possible, that all may be done before the
heats OF summer, taking caro- to always
have one family room in It's accustomed
order, and to disarrange rs little as pos
sible the general habits Of the home cir
Gle. Above all, avoiding that terrible
strain Of unnecessary oVerwork which
some women seem to think virtue in
cleaning time.
The one way is an upheaval-a rapid
stirring up, and as rapid setting down
again, Of the household gods. The other
way Is Developments special purpose
and activity made subseryient TO q gen
cral plan and order. Those who have sui.
fered from the annual reign Of "ChaOs and
old night" which one must endure
in some families, even the "best-
regulated" in many particulars, will
agree with US when We advocate
the latter plan. Why is 1t that we can
not clean houses, right wrongs, or abste
nuisunces without making the remedy
seem, for a time at least, worse than the
disease? A little more wisdom, a closer
study Of cause and effect, and more
patience and good sensein executing ones
plans, would save tho worlds leaders and
their followers much discomfort. 1t may
reasonably DO doubted whether any one
thing is OF so much more Importance than
others, that all should be disturbed and
put one side for its accomplishment. And
yet If the house is cleaned, somebody
must work hard in the dust; if the wrong
IS righted, somebody must say unwelCome
things and bear the hard consequences;
and ease and comfort are not the righteous
aims OF life. All we ask for is, such
measure OF ordinary comfort As is consist
ent with the efficient cleansing Of lie and
habitatiOn-a little Of that repose which
sees tho end from the beginning, and
labors without haste, and without rest

One of the Things Usually Headed
'GSingular Occurrence"

Extract from private letter Gom Now York;
The.lady of the house where l live was
brought TO New York by her father and
mother (trom Hamburg) when she was II
years old, and with her two younger sis
tiers, oil OF them charming married wo-
men in this city now. II Is an old story,
but wildly fresh in the minds OF the
whole family. One night, in this city, the
mother Of the three girls, having been
kept up by some household duties, had
gone 10 bed about midnight, when, be-
side herself, the whole house was hushed.
Scarcely had she taken of her clothes and
got into bed, when che had occasion to
violently wake up her sleeping husband
with this: "Oh, God do you know my
mother is in America! She has Just been
here, but would not speak to me, and this
moment has gone into the room with the
children! Go in and bring her out. How
she has found us out, at this late hour OF
the night, do not know" The reused
husband went into the next room, turned
up the gas, and saw only three beautiful
little girls, smiling and sleeping in one
wide bed. He noted date and hour. It
is time 10 tell the sequence. The next
steamer mail from Hamburg brought
news that the grandmother Of the chill
dren, in that very night and hour, had
gone to the Beyond. Did she stop in this
city to bless the children on the way!
Who shall tell? Strangest Of all, to the
unbelieving, shall l say uninitiated, on the
morning after the appearance, the three
little girls all told at breakfast about hay
ing "drcamed Of grandmother"

Amusements in Alabama.

A correspondent ofthe Cincinnati Com.
mercial asked native Of Blunt county,
Alabama, "How do your people amusc
yourselves during the long Summer days
and Winter nights" and received tho
following reply: Leg
oval, amusements are rather skasc iOr
fact. We can watch the trains pass
and sometimes o circus comes along. But
the circus business does not do as well us
it used 10. They don't come ottener than
every three years or so. We are nearly
dried up for circus now. People would
turn out to one powerful. II q man
would put up good lot OF circus picters,
he could get a quarter head for people
a.looking at 'cm. Times 10 dry. We
haven't even had Camp.mceting in two
years, and the last one was staver. II
like 10 havc stove inc up, anyway. II
was over in Little Warrior Valley. Il
lasted nine days, day and night. Me and
the old woman was thar through 1t oil.
never saw so much meeting in my life. !
right there got enough TO do nc iOl
awhile, and haven't been 10 a meeting
ofany sort since. You ought to go &c
one Of our camp.meetingsl They arc all
the go in North Alabama. We build
cabins, you know, and three or four tami'
lies will move into q cabin with provis'
ions, and do nothing but cat and go &c
meetin' for solid week. Some Of the
folks can cat awful ut camp meeting, /
tell you, That last meeting cost me over
two hundred pounds OF as nice miadlin'
bacon as you ever set eyes on. But Bet
scy says It will all be made right in the
next world, and I suppose it will, though
the bacon was powerful fine"

Treasury Views Concerning the Re-
funding Of tho Debt.

A Washington dispatch to the BAlti.
more Sun says:
1t Is asserted that the efforts Of the Sec.
rotary of the Treasury and OF the tlnan-
cial agents Of the government In the sales
Of the new bonds will be confined entire
" to the five per cents. II never was
deemed probable that there would be any
call OF consequence in our own country
for government securities paying less
than five per cent interest, but Secretary
Boutwell, and Senator Sherman both in
sisted that there would DO no difficulty in
placing loan at II and even per cent
In the money marts of Europe. Though
few shared this confidence, It was deter
mined to give Mr.. Boutwell, a chance TO
see what he could do After all, Mr.,
Boutwell, directed his operations entirely
to the sale OF tho new five per cents, and
such, It Is said, will be the course Of his
successor Mr.. Richardson, who is con
WINGED that foreign capitalists will not &C.
Cept less interest than home investors
II It is found that nothing can be done
with the and Al per cent bonds, Con-
gross will be asked to authorize an In
crease Of the rate Of interest on them tc

TEMPERANCE SCRtTs.

The hardest thing ever said Of England, j..
the assertion that it spends in Intoxicating
drinks $40 600 900 of dollars annually. And
the hardest part of the whole thing j. tho
probability that the assertion is pretty neaI
true.
Rev. Mr. Smith, Of Easthampton. Mas,
is gentleman Of peculiar ideas and insist,
that it is no more injurious to the health tc
drink liquor moderately than to eat bread
with Yeast in it. To This the Rochester
Democrat responds "The comparison isnot
a good one, for the two articles have an en-
tirely opposite effect or we are much mis-
taken And the remark is quite unnecessa-
~ for there are no immoderate drinkers
We never saw but one man who wasn't
ready to swear that he was merely Il mode
rate drinker, and he was too drunk to swear
to anything
