have believed in the existence of an Elixir,

long life indefinitely. This error the world

The Mother as a Barber.

You can always tell boy whose
mother cuts his hair. Not because the
edge of it looks as if it had been @ehewed
off by an absent-minded horse, but you
tell it by the way he stops on the street,
and wriggles his shoulders. When a
fond mother has to cut her boys hair, she
is careful to guard against any annoyance
and muss by laying sheet ON the carpet
1t has never yet occurred to her to lit
him on bare floor, and put the sheet
around his neck. Then she draws the
front hair over his eyes, appears to be
surcharged with electric needles, and that
which is silently dropping down under
bis shirtband appears to be on fire. She
has unconsciously continued to push his
head forward until his nose presses his
breast, and is too busily engaged to notice
the snuffiing sound that is becoming
aiarmlnglY frequent. In the meantime
. he is seized with an irresistible desire to
DloW MS nose, but 1recollects that his
handkerchief is in the other room Then

friends IF. after your kindly hints about

friends. If, after your kindly hints about
their purchases, they make blnnders, let
the plumbers come Reason will soon
give aid to their efforts, and by failures
their Judgment will be disciplined. Do
you wish your daughters to begin their
expensive experiments in making pur-
chases out of their husbands purse? The
gentleman who fancied he was wedding
an angel, might be sadly disappointed to
find your daughter entirely ignorant of
everything like domestic economy.
A lady. who had been married several
years. said to me recently that she never
bought but three articles for herself while
she lived at home. Said she You don't
know what trial it has been for me to
make myso own purchases. Half the goods
| have bought have been worthless, be-
cause mother never allowed me to select
anything for myself. Not that | believe
in letting daughters have a hundred or
ton, but / do believe in their choosing
for themselves, and thus learning the
quantity, quality and suitableness of all
kinds of wearing apparel"
Very few daughters refer to this kind OF
indulgence with pleasure. In their eager
ness to be Independent when wives, and
choose for themselves, they hardly stop to
consult what judgment they do possess.
They are often shocked by enormous bills,
beside seeing themselves look like rights
in the garments they have selected and
paid so dearly for. uA-Es1a
To select nice, juicy steak and a tempt
ing roast, and to serve the same IN good
style, might be more difficult than to pur-
chase an elegant dress pattern. We know
hundreds of fashionable mammas who
tremble to think of their daughters know
ing anything about work, yet they insist
that these daughters shall have the power
to vote.
There is more serious work than in
learning the details OF domestic economy.
Out of kindness many a mother removes
all responsibility from her daughters. She
buys, and has made to order, every article
of dress; she bolts every avenue to labor;
she shuts every door leading to healthful
exercise, and at the last serenely yields her
charge to the complicated cares of wife
and motherhood! BY sad experience many
daughters learn here that idleness has
been no friend to them. The exercise
they ought to have had in mothers kitch-
en- would have strengthened the lax mus
cles The hundred pleasant tasks Of early
home-life would have developed their bod
les naturally.
There is great said about woman's in
efficient way of doing business. We are
told they want the earnestness that char
acterizes men, and yet are they to blame
that do not have this? Perhaps two-thirds
of them were never taught SO much as to
take care of their own wardrobe. What
has been their business more than to at
tend boarding-school, thump the piano,
speak German and dress fashionably I'M
