So
To Remove the Smell Of Petroleum

This will be useful to many
good housewives. Professor
Stolbe informs the public what
he considers the best method
of completely removing from
glass or other vessels the smell
of any petroleum which may
have previously been contained
in them. This simply consists
in introducing'a suitable guam
tity of milk of lime and shak-
ing it around thoroughly, and
after allowing it to stand for a
time, repeating the operation in
a few minutes. At the same
time the external surface of the
vessel is to be washed with a rag
dipped in the same substance.
Petroleum forms an emulsion
with the milk of lime, and can
thus be readily removed. Ii
particles of thickened petroleum
adhere to the glass, these can
be removed by washing with
fine sand, or by other mechan-
ical means.
After emptying out the
emulsion produced, it is only
necessary to rinse with water,
after which as much chloride
Of lime as will 60 on the point
Of a knife is to be introduced
and shaken with water, and
then allowed to stand about an
hour, the exterior being rinsed
offin a similar manner. If the
liquids referred to are used hot,
this operation will be material
ly facilitated.

obeying Mother Pleasantly.

\ -
Little Harry had seen some older
boys iytheir kites from the tops of
Che houses and he thought it would
be nice fun il he could do so too
so he came to his aunt and said;
"Aunt Mary, may l go up to the
top of the house and fly my kite ?"
His Aunt wished to do everything
that was proper to please him; but
she thought this was very unsafe.
so she said;
"No, Harry, my boy, | think that
is q very dangerous sort of play.
I'd rather you wouldn't go.'
CAL right. Then I'll go out on
the bridge" said Harry. His aunt
smiled and said she hoped he would
always be as obedient as that.
"Harry, what are you doing ?"
said his mother on one occasion.
Spinning my new top, mother"
Cant you take the baby out to
ride? Get out the carriage, andTTl
bring him down.
"All right" shouted the boy as
he put his top away in his pocket
and fastened to obey his mother.
"Uncle William, may | go over to
your store this morning said
Harry one day at breakfast. II
want to see those baskets again,
that / was looking at yesterday"
"But I cannot spare you to-day,
Harry" said his mother. 81 want
you to go out with me; you shall go
to the store another time"
AL right" said Harry, and went
on with his breakfast.
No matter what Harry was asked
to do, or what refusal he met with,
when asking for anything, his con
slant answer was" All right" He
never stopped to worry or tease. He
never asked-"Why can't l ?" or,
"Why mustn't ?" Harry had not
only learned to obey, but he had
learned to obey in good humor.-

Returning Answers.

Hear the story of q child who
went forth into the mountain ravine.
While the child wandered there, he
called out to break the loneliness,
and heard q voice which called to
him in the same tone. He called
again, and as he thought the voice
again Knocked him. Flushed with
anger, he rushed to find the boy
who had insulted him, but he could
find none. He then called to him
in anger, and with abusive names
all of which yer faithfully re-
turned to him.
Choking with rage, the child ran
to his mother and complained that
a boy in the woods had abused him
with many vile words.
The mother took her child by the
hand and said: "My child, those
names were but the echoes Of thine
own voice. Whatever thou didst
call was returned to thee from the
hill side. Hadst thou called out
pleasant words, pleasant words
had returned to theem
Let this be thy lesson through
life. The world will be the echo of
thine own spirit. Treat thy fell
lows with kindness, with love, and
thou shalt have love. Send forth
sunshine from thy spirit, and thou
shalt never have q clouded day;
carry about vindictive spirit, and
even in the flowers shall Turk cnrses.
Thou shalt receive even what thou
givest, and that alone.

AN excellent varnish for har-

into Aug or bottle halfa pound
to a pound of gum-shelac, COW
cred with good alcohol, and
cork tightly. Put the mixture
in a warm place. In about
two days, if shaken frequently,
the gum will be dissolved and
and ready for use. If the liq-
uid appears as thick as thin
molasses, add more alcohol.
To one quart Of the varnish,
add one ounce of gum camphor.

Bees in the Spring

AS this season approaches, it
seems to endow all nature with
new life or zeal. Bees are not
slow to discover this, and will
have an earnest desire to come
out on fine days. The hives
should be brought from their
winter quarters and set on the
stands on witch you intend
them to remain during the Sum-
mer. Now know how their
supplies are, and only feed in
case Of necessity. If they have
honey, which you should know,
they do not need feed. You
need to take great care in feed
ing; it is liable to induce rob
bing. 1t sometimes may be
necessary to feed, but it not al
ways the surest way to success.
If you find it necessary to feed,
| would take the hive or stock
to a closed room, and there feed
it enough to last several days,
which they store in the combs,
and then return them to the
stand, keeping a good lookout.
In all bee management, it is
necessary to see your bees Oft
