The Mothers Toll and Care.

If We dart from parlor to kitchen
and from bedroom to hall, in our
interest in the household economy,
we must be pardoned; good house
keeper has Argus eyes, here, there
and everywhere. We must see that
the girl does not neglect the kitchen.
Wen go down there and down here
and do little at the pastry table
ourselves; then we can judge if the
mice have been at play while the
cat was away" We will see if our
parlor is well busted, the windows
and mirrors clean, and all the finger
marks wiped off the paint. Have
the halls had due attention? Are
all the door knobs and bell handles
bright? Are all the beds, bedrooms
airing? Throw open the windows,
let in plenty of fresh air, and don't
let Bridget come around to dress
the beds for two or three hours at
least.
Is the sitting-room all in order
and ready for the little sewing
we must accomplish every day2
The mending must be well attended
to. Our experience proves that "a
stitch in time saves ninety" A
parcel is to be laid away; a book
there must go back to its place in
the bookcase; the tides are little
askeW; the mantel ornaments need
a little rearranging, oh! the thous-
and little trifles that mater famillias
does to make home what it is It
is no one great piece of work that
tells for itself, but it is the many,
many little things that the mothers
hand does, day by day, that Destows
order, and regularity and comfort
upon our homes. Blot out all her
insignificant and apparently trif-
ing offices, and behold the confu
sion and air of untidiness that is
noticeable at a glance
No one followed up the servant
for the sweeping and busting; no
one knew if it was done at all-the
husband never knows anything Of
that, the children are too young,
or, perhaps, old enough, are at
school. No one laid away the
books and papers or the hats and
cloaks of the little ones, or prepared
for them a relishing lunch on their
return from school with a raging
appetite! No one bundled them
QUITO have nice play in the snow.
No one mended the torn dress, or
replaced a missing button on the
shoe. All these little duties, that
make up the daily life of every moth
er don't seem to amount to much,
but let sickness suspend her efforts,
or let her be absent for few days,
and the visible charge in the house
and home will make her thousand
and one-cares thoroughly appreci-
ated.-FTes Press.

Hear and Heed This.

Truth is one, of the rarest gems.
Many youth has been lost in society
by allowing a falsehood to tarnish his
character, and foolishly throwing 1t
away. If this gem still shines in your
bosom, suffer nothing to displace it or
diminish its lustre.
Profanity is a mark of low breeding.
Show us man that commands respect;
an oath trembles not on his tongue.
Read the catalogue Of crime. Inquire
the character of those who depart from
virtue. Without a single exception you
will find them to be profane. Think of
this and don't let vile word disgrace
you.
Honesty, frankness, generosity, vir-
tue-blessed traitsi Be these yours, nv
boys, and we shall not fear. You will
claim the love aud respect of all. You
are watched by your elders. Meh who
are looking for clerks and apprentices
have their eyes on you. Ii you are up
right you will find good places, kind
masters, and the prospect of useful
life before you. If you are profane,
vulgar, theatre going, they will not
have you.

A Gard to the Public.

For many years we have made two
medicines suited 10 the ailments of a vast
class of sufferers. Thousands of cures
have been made by them, and, iL fac5,
the word failure could not be coupled
with them. But within the last two
years counterfeits of our medicines have
sprung up, dangerous in their close i'm
itation of our Trade Mark. To secure
the people we have placed upon each
genuine box of Holloway's Ointment
the fac simile of the signature of our
agent, Mr.. Jos. Haydock. To counter
felt is felony. We shall relentleSsly
pursue any one who initiates this with
the utmost visor of the law. We most
earnestly beg that the great mass of the
American people will aid us in our efforts
to protect their health, and help us in
our task of bringing these most unprin-
cipled men 10 the bar of Justice. Uni
formly refuse to purchase Medicines
purporting to be ours unless Mr.. Jos.
Haydock's signature Is attached TO each
box of Pills or pot of Ointment, and the
end will soon be reached.

fruit of endeavor that had no capital 10

story is the same--not only in getting
wealth, but also 10 The requirements of
various emnence, those men have won
most who relied most upon themselves.

Definition of Character in WO-
men.


Women are generally more de-
voted to their friends than men, and
display an interchangeable activity in
serving them. "Whoever has gained
the affections of a woman is sure
to succeed in any enterprise wherein
she assists or advises him; men
draw back much sooner in such
cases. Who is not astonished at
the courage shown by a woman
when her husband, whose miscon-
duct has perhaps thousand times
her, is threatened imminent
danger? Who does not know many
instances of the most heroic de-
on the part of the sex?
A woman spares no effort to serve
her friends. When it IS a question
of saving her brother, her husband,
her father, she penetrates into
prisons-she throws herself at the
feet of the ruling powers. Such
are the women of our day, and such
has history represented those of an
iquity, Happy, 1 repeat, is he who
las a woman for a friend.

Stay Where You Are.

Hard times beget unrest, dissat-
isfaction and desire of change.
Without stopping to realize that
the same elements occasioned dull
times in Maine or Vermont are in
full operation in Tennessee, the
discontinued man feels that any 10
cation is to be preferred to his pres
ent abode. We advise all who are
earning living to stop where they
are. Dull times are always followed
by periods of activity, and one is
better prepared to secure the ad
vantages of a revival in business
where he is known, than among
strangers. Again, moving about is
demoralizing in its tendency, ex-
pensive and destructive. Seldom
do we hear of removal of man
from a village or neighborhood in
which he is interested, active and
publlc spirited. Nothing so weds
a man to cause as working for it
spending his time sacrificing
something for it. You may be as
sured that the fault lies partly at
your own door, when the desire to
leave familiar neighborhood 81
lences your better judgment and
prompts the sundering of the ties
of early association. Resolve to-
day,all ye discontented,to take hold
with will. and sustain your farm
ers' clubs and grange clubs, to dis
cuss and compare important prac-
teal matters with your neighbors,
to feel an interest in whatever shall
benefit your village, your kinsman,
your family and yourself, to cult
vate spirit of contentment, i'm
provement and cooperation.

Farm Labor.


The following pair of pertinent
paragraphs, which we find in the
New England Homestead, must have
been written by some level body
who keeps his eyes wide open, and
knows how to tell what he sees and
thinks:
The amount of muscle that can
be saved by a little brain labor is
wonderful. And yet the science of
doing everything in proper time
and place, in fact, properly, is some
thing that agricultural papers or
farming books cannot teach. Expe-
rience, calculation and forethought
are the mentors. A month before
a piece of machinery is to be used,
a glance will show where it is de-
fective. A rainy day, spare hour,
a chance to take it to be repaired
without going on purpose; these
present them selves for the intelli-
gent farmers, and when the harvest
is ripe, or the corn ready for the
cultlvator, there will be no delay for
the mending of the damaged ma
cEinery.
There is no such weak laziness
and wicked waste of time and OPP
portunity as the man practices who
never has time to do anything prop
erly. He goes to town with three
errands and comes home with only
one finished-he has no time for the
others. All these are the lack of
forethought and system-a neglect
to use the brain that God has given
him to shape and direct his work
and save the muscle.
An OK will do the work but he
cannot plan it. The horse is pow
erful, but he is controlled by his
master and his power is utilized.
Mans labor is but brute strength
and the stronger the brain force
that is brought to bear upon it the
more surely every stroke tells, and
the more grand will be the result.
