Blue Checks.

In Ohio, few days ago / saw a girl
in a span-clean checked apron that
went around her waist with a string;
the old fashioned sort, made of number
less and undivided checker boards, with
the little blue and white squares alter
mating with mathematical precision.
The sight of that apron would have
taken you back to an older wearer of
similar garment, who brought apples
from the orchard in it, and white maple
chips from the wood pile, and picked
peas in it upon pinch, and gathered
eggs in it from the hay NOV, and spread
it smoothly and decoreusly over her lap
when she sat, and her knitting work
repOsed in it, and sometimes a cat,
marked like her best Sunday comb,
would assay slumber upon its check
cred existence, and be whisked off in a
second. You have seen that apron
flung over its owners head like ''the
knitted cloud" of modern times, when
she went to the next neighbOr's. That
apron has wiped away the tears of your
childish sorrow, when they ran down
your face, and your clamOrOus tongue
ran out at each corner of your mouth
between the syllables of lamentation,
and licked them in You saw where
she laid it when its work was done.
You saw where they laid her when her
work was done. There is a whole sys-
TEN of mnemonics in those blue and
white checks.-B. r. TAYLOR, in Eram-
iner and Chronicle.

Shop-Girls.

There is no doubt that the public
gains by the comparative silence of the
shop-girls, for silly sentimentalists are
far less likely now than formerly to be
led into foOlishly denOuncing an imag
mary wrong. Why should not shop
girls be forbidden to sit dOwnP They
are neither fashionable young ladies
nor the daughters of leading citizens,
and hence they are of no possible con-
sequence. Moreover, if they grew thin
and pale so that their weary faces hurt
and haunt the occasional and weak
minded husband who accompanies his
wife when ''shopping," they ought to
be ashamed of themselves. Have they
no respect for themselves, that they are
willing to be pitied by male sentiment
alists ? and have they no regard for the
interest of strOng-minded women, that
they thus publicly confess themselves
physically weaker than men7 AS for
their specious pretense that girl ex
hausted by long standing is less likely
to pay all possible attention to a GUS
toner than is girl who has frequent,
though brief, opportunities to rest, it
should receive no attention, since it is
put forth by the girls in their own ia
terest, and not by unprejudiced and i'm
partial persons. That what the shop
girls consider wrong is really great
blessing to them may be readily per-
ceived when we reflect that whenever
a shOp-girl loses her health, and retires
to the hospital or the country, her for
mer situation is open to a new seeker
for employment. In fact, the more girls
any given shop-keeper can wear out,
the more new girls can he furnish with
employment. Thus the shop-girls of
to-day owe their places to the very law
which they denounce, but which Great
ed, and is constantly creating, vacant
situations. That these ungrateful girls
should have the hardihoOd to complain
that they are cruelty treated, and the
indelicacy to hint that they have legs
which are not made of cast iron, gives
lis very melancholy view of human
nature. If they are really dissatisfied,
why do they not shake off the dust of
the shop from their feet? The world
is all before them where to starve, and
the midnight street is as free to an ex-
shop-girl as to a ruined milliner's ap-
prentice.-N. 7. Times.

Pet the Older Ones.

1t sometimes occurs to us that the
babies get more than their share of pet
ting-nOt that anybody can help it..
The dear little dimpled things, with
their sweet ways and their helpless de-
pendence, and the charm of some new
revelation every day, invite our caress-
es and our whole store of compliment
ary- adjectives. Darling aud treasure,
and the common stock of nouns of en-
dearment and appreciation, come easily
to our lips when we talk to the little
ones. How often we drop these pretty
forms of speech as they grow older.
They leave the cunning age behind,
and graduate into the awkward one.
Girls and boys alike pass through pc
riod when they are shy, sensitive, NOR
bid and self-conscious, yet perhaps
withal arrogant, conceited and opinion
ated. With what matchless confidence
sixteen and eighteen adopt and parade
notions on subjects which have puzzled
prophets and sages! Then their fathers
and mothers too often feel impatient
and disappointed. They do not remem-
ber that this queer husk will fall away,
and from it emerge flower by -and-by.
So gradually and insensibly do mothers
lose the habit of caressing their Older
children, and the latter would look very
much surprised at kiss bestowed out

"One of the hardest cases had was
in the winter of 1874. / was coming
home from work when big colored
fellow, some "a years old, broke through
the ice between the Trumbull and Null

on the latter bridge halloed foI some
one to go save him, but nobody went.

"The 11th case was August Henblein,
a small boy then, who got in while
playing with his dog. 1 got him easy.

WARM WEATHER DRINKS.
drinkers make mistake if they keep
up the strength of their favorite bever-
age. Have lesser quantity made, of
full strength, and use half, or even a
quarter of a cup, filed up with warm
milk. Iced tea is a delicious drink !;
only don't make the mistake of suppos-
ing that this means "cold tea" Pour
it fresh and hot into goblet filled with
ice, and season to your taste, replenish-
ing the ice as it melts, and you will
have a most grateful beverage. The
man who invented it deserves the
thanks of all who appreciate the diff
ference in their dining between Decem-
Der and May, Fourth of July and
Thanksgiving Golden Rule.

A Few Items for Mothers to Read.

A correspondent in writing to the Mid
dletown Press offers the following sea-
sonable suggestions to mothers of at
fiicted children:
A flannel cloth, wet in hot brandy, or
better, camphor and brandy mixed aud
heated, will relieve the pain of the
bowels, if frequently laid over the stom-
ach and bowels.
Bits of scraped ice are better on the
tongue than drinks of water.
For stings and poisons, a strong solu-
ton of saleratus and water Immediately
and then frequently applied, gives re-
lief and sure cure.
For burns, an immediate application
of flour covering the burn and wrapped
so as to exclude the air; then burn
lard till it is quite brown and apply,
and relief and cure will soon come. Do
not wash off the flour if it clings, but
put the lard over it.
At night, in extreme weather, lemon
squeezed in tepid water, to sponge off
the tired out little body, will give rest
to both the mother and child. SaIera-
tus is good, but the lemon is best.
Even washing off the little feet, neck,
and palms of the hands in tepid, never
very cold water, will induce healthful
sleep.

of the regular way. The habit of a
morning and evening salute is kept in
families where it is merely mechanical
and perfunctory. Yet that is better
than no kiss at all. The magnetism of
mother-love, shown to the boy or girl,
however unamiable their transitory
mood may be, is strong enough to save
them from much unhappiness, or from
the attack of temptation. Do net slight
so strong power. Even though you
feel diff1dent in taking up what should
never have been laid aside, begin again
and pet your big sons and daughters.

Patriot Women.

Rev. DR.. Bellows bears this testimony
in his introduction to "Woman's Work
in the Civil War :" ''Women there were
in this war whe, without single rela-
tive in the army, denied themselves for
the whole four years the comforts to
which they had always been accustom-
ed, went thinly clad, took the extra
blanket from their bed, never tasted
tea or sugar OF flesh that they might
wind another bandage around some un-
known soldiers wound, or give some
parched hips in the hospital another sip
of wine. Others never let one leisure
moment saved from lives of pledged
labor which barely earned them bread,
go unemployed in the service of the
soldiers. God Himself keeps this record !;
it is too sacred to be trusted to men.
1t is not unusual for women of all
countries to weep and to work for those
who encounter the perils of wal. But
the American women, after yielding to
the ranks of the gathering army hus-
bands, brothers, fathers, sons and low
ers, proceeded to organize relief for
them, and they did it with Il self-con-
tIOled and rational consideration of the
wisest and best means of accomplishing
their purpose, which showed them to
be in some degree the products and
representatives of new social era and
Il new political development and their
work was us systematic as it was uni
versal. They showed perfect aptitude
for business, and proved by their own
experience that men can devise nothing
too precise, too systematic, or too COM
plicated for women to understand, ap-
ply, and improve upon, where there is
any sufficient motive for it. OF the
practical talent, the personal worth, the
aptitude for public service, the love OF
selfsacrificing duty, thus developed and
nursed into power, it is difficult to speak
too warmly"
