FAT MEAT FOR CONSERVATIVES. -
4 taste for fat meat is unfortunately
not universal among children, but
when it shows itself it is often re.
pressed by parents. This taste is an
other expression of the want Of tho
living system which we cannot disre.
gard with impunity. Without fats
the organism cannot be built up in
perfection. Fats countcract the ten
dency to consumption. Observation
has established tho fact that persons
who in early life show taste for fat
meat seldom fall victims to that dis
case and, vice versa that consumptives
have generally shown an early rcpug-
nance to such food. There can be no
question as to the lesson taught by
this fact that when the appetite exists
it ought to be INDUCED, and that it
ought, if possible, TO be created, when
wanted, by tonics, and abundant ex-
crcisc in the open air.

The Young Children.

It is worse than folly, says an ex-
change, to send children to school
before they have developed reason
ing faculties. To the infant Of four
years, school is prison, the teacher
a dread being whose frown is death,
and whose smile and kindly notice
is overpowering. Therefore, chill
dren ought not to 60 to school un-
til six years old. They should not
learn at home during that time any
more than the alphabet, religious
teachings excepted. They should
be fed with plain, substantial food,
at regular intervals of not less than
four hours. They should not be al
lowed to cat anything within two
hours of bed time. They should
sleep in separate beds, on hair mat
tresses, without caps, feet first
warmed by the fire or rubbed until
perfectly dry; extra covering on the
lower limbs, but little on the body.
They should be,compelled to be out
Of doors for the greater part of the
day, from after breakfast until half
an hour before sunset, unless iii
damp, raw weather, when they
should never be allowed to 90 out
side the door. Never limit a healthy |
child; it is cruel, unjust, and DAN
gerous. What you have to do, do
it at once, and have done with it.
Never speak harshly or angrily, but
mildly, kindly, and, when needed,
firmly-no more. BY all means ar
range it so that the last words be-
tween you and your children at bed
time, especially the younger ones,
shall be words of unnlixcd affec-
ton. ...a

EXCELLENT WH1TEwAsH. AS the
house cleaning season is approaching,
lit may not be amiss to say q few
words in regard to white-washfng.
There are many recipes published,
but we believe the following to be the
best. Sixteen pounds of pounds of
Paris white, half a pound of white
transparent glue, prepared as follows:
The glue is covered with cold water
at night, and in the morning is care
fully heatcd-without scorching-un-
til dissolved. The Paris white is stir
red in with hot water to give it the
proper milky consistency for apply
ing to walls; the mixture is then ap-
piled with brush like tho common
lime white brush. Except on very
dark and smoky walls, u single coat is
sufficient. 1t is nearly equal in bril-
liancy to "zinc wLitc," u far more ex-
pensive article.

ABBEVILLE, S. c. WEDNESDAY, APRIL rs, 1874 B.

For a while Tom and Lucy gro
ped innocently about them, each
failing to find the objects they
sought; at last Tom speke:
I say, where are you all?' he
said helplessly.
No answer came to his question
from those he was seeking.
Tom said Lucy, Il believe they
are all hiding :,
just at that moment the two ap.
preached each other with their
hands extended, and they were each
suddenly clasped in each others
arms. This was a sensation so new
to Tom that it almost deprived him
of articulation.
%, is it you, Tom 2 said Lucy.
4 do believe they're fooling u.s.
She suddenly removed the band
age from her eyes, and the next
moment Tom felt her dett little
fingers untying the knot in the
handkerchief that was bound about
his head.
Look a here, Tom,' she said in
a half provoked sort of way, Just
see what trick they've played upon
US. I might have known what they
were up to. Never mind, we'll
have a real pleasant visit now.'
They sat down side by side on
the high-backed sofa, and Lucy
talked so pleasantly and encour-
agingly to Tom that he soon felt
perfectly at home. He was almost
astonished at his self.possession.
The minutes heightened into hours
and, we'll, he never could fully ex.
plain how it was afterwards, but the
fact was that Lucy promised him
that she would be Mrs. Tom Jan
sen whenever he was ready to claim
her as his own, and Tom went
home that night very proud and
happy, and on the following morn
ing he informed his astonished fa-
ther that any time that farm was
ready he would be happy to 60 to
housekeeping.
Peter Jansen kept his word, and
Tom was often subsequently heard
to say that if it had not been for
that friendly game Of blind mans
bluff he would hardly have known
how to have made a choice.

MY LOVE.

So fair-so fair
Her shining hair
That falls and ripples down;
1t half reveals
And half conceals
Her eyes so large and brown.
So white-so white,
Her forelead's light
Beneath her hair of gold;
Like SNOW it seems
Which the soft beams
OF moonlight sweet enfOld,
So soft-so soft
The rOsc-tint oft
Upon her rounded cheek;
1t seems to play,
With dilnplcs gay,
A game of hidc-ald-seek.
So rcd-so red
.. -. Her lips seem fed
With bloom from off the rose,
L And just beneath
Their coral sheath
A row of pearls enclose. -s-.
So small-so small n =
Her feet that fall
Upon the earth SO fair;
They scarce can crush
The flower they brush,
That bloom and blossom there.
Oh golden hair,
So shining fair!
And forehead smoothly white,
And eyes of brown,
With lashes down,
You haunt me day and night.
Oh, cheeks so pink,
Where dlmples sink
And lips of rosy hue,
That sweetly curl
O'er teeth of pea.l,
- ] dream always of you! -
Oh, gentle feet,
So small and fleet!
You crush not e'en flower;
Walk at my side
Through life, and guide
Mine from this glad, sweet hour!

COFFEE GROUNDS AND MELONS. -
1t is said that coffee grounds, which
arc very rich in nitrogen, are said to
form an excellent manure for melons.
In order 10 produce the best effect,
they should be mixed with the earth
which forms the bed. SO that they
should be well dccayed by the time
the roots begin TO dev elop.
