Save the Old Paper.

Never throw away old paper.
IF you have no wish to sell it,
use it in the house. Some house
keepers prefer it to cloth for
cleaning many articles of furni-
ture. For instance, volume
written by a lady who prided
herself on her experience and
tact, says: "After a stove has
been blackened, it can be Kept
looking very well for long time
by rubbing it with paper every
morning. Rubbing with paper
lis a much nicer way of keeping
the outside of a tea-kettle, coffee
pot, and teapot bright and clean
than the old way Of washing
them in suds. Rubbing with
paper is also the best way of pol
ishing knives, ,tinware, ,andspoons;
they shine like new silver. For
polishing mirrors, windows, lamp
chimneys, etc., paper is better
than dry cloth. Preserves and
pickles keep much better if
brown paper, instead of cloth, is.
tied over the jar. Canned fruit
is not so apt to mold if a piece
of writing paper, cut to fit the
cap, is laid directly on the fruit.
Paper is much better to put un-
der a carpet than straw. 1t is
warmer, thinner, and makes less
noise when one walks over it.

sighs the tired wife. And after
all, what docs it amount to?
Don't you feel ore bit discour-

Your work is of just as much
Importance as any mans. F.
ven if it is nothing but sweep
ing and dusting, mending and
darning, broiling and baking,
over aud over again, it is a bus
mess that would wear out a
stout masculine heart. Let your

be neglected for a few days,
then the Importance of your
work is painfully visible. Home
is what man works for, and
what We all live for, and with
out the tiresome duties are faith

a truly "swcet home" is. never
obtained. The humblest lot in
life may be llonored by cheer

She Made it Warm for the
Doctor.

A good joke was unconsci-
ously got off recently on aiocal
physician. In arranging a
a patients broken leg he con-
nectcd with it a takle having a
flat-iron as compensating
weight, and told the mans wife
TO let it stay there until his re-
turn. She wanted to use the
iron next day badly, and she
nsed it. While at work she
saw the doctor coming, and in
her fright replaced the iron
glowing hot on the takIe. lie
came in, examined the leg and
took up the hot IRON. /: drop
ped like lead, and the man of
physic went on an impromptu
can can, equaled only blythe
vigorous use he made of his
tongue. There was music .here
for half an hour, and he thinks
yet that that woman put up a
job on him.

Hardening Children.

/ There are no words strong e.
nough to characterize the folly
of those parents who think it
right to ''harden" their children
by forcing them to face the cold
insufficiently clad. "By this
means, "a medical writer declares,
"children are hardened out of
the world" Ifit were possible to
compute the number of children
who lose their lives simply be-
cause they renot warmly enough
dressed, the statistics would star
tie fathers and mothers. The
death-rate of children in cold
climates during winter, especially
in Russia, is enormous. In JUS
tice to fathers, however, it must
be said that they are less respon-
sible than mothers for the i'll
Judged manner in which many
children are dressed in winter.
Never let little children go out
of doors in winter without being
warmly clad. They lose heat
rapidly, ,and easily contract throat
and lung affections. Every, child
should have full suits Of under
clothing; and especially let the
legs and ankles be well protected
with thick stockings and leg
gings. The mother who sends her
child out in winter with bare
legs is vain and foolish mother,
and cruel to her child. If the
doctor does not have to be called
in before the winter is over the
case will be all exceptional one.
She may have need of the under
taker.
The cold bath in the morning
for infants and young children
has done a vast amount of injury.
DIR. Osgood, in his little book,
"Wmter and its Dangers" says
GAS for bathing children on ris-
ing, especially in winter, | con-
slider nothing more reprehensible.
1t is slow murder. They may
be dry rubbed at that hour, but
bathed, meUer. This, of course,
refers to the full bath, not to the
ordinary ablution of face, head
and hands. Indeed, it is my firm
belief that save dressing, nothing
should be done before breakfast.
The toilet completed, then we
should go straight to the table.
In view of our actual physical
condition at early morning, how
a sane person can advocate the
full bath and exercise before eat
ing is mystery"

A Preachers Tit for Tat.


Mr.. .C-was pastor of a Bap-
tist Church in a certain town in
one Of the Western States. He
had been on very bad terms with
his flock for some. time. They
abused him whenever they could
find occasion, and he reciprocal
ted with equal readiness. Be
fore his contract with the parish
expired, he received the appoint
ment of chaplain at the State
prison. Elated at this lucky op-
portunity to get rid OF him, the
congregation came out in full
numbers to hear his farewell SER
mon, perhaps less to compliment
than to annoy him with their
presence. Great was their as
tonishment,a and still greater their
anger, when the reverend gentle
man chose for his text the follow
ing words, 81 go to prepare a

"Talking of dogs" said DR.
F., "I'll tell you a true story.
When | lived in Dayton l had a
neighbor, Or. Van 1'hyl, who had
a mastiff named Lige. He had
grown old, gray and toothless.
He had been, in his prime, with
out a peer in a square dog fight,
but was now on the retired list.
1t was hard for Lige to, give up
his dog days in inglorious ease.
Every now and then, feeling the
rust of inaction, he would en7
gage in a combat with some
wondering dog, to be made pain
fully aware of his enfeebled age.
One day when Lige was doing
on the front porch, he looked up
and saw in the street, under q
load of wood, a large yellow dog
Ia Jaunty fellow, young, Ylgo-
rous and saucy, with AN mms-
taxable country air about him.
The stranger was looking around
in q supercilious way, as if there
wasn't anything round worth a
second glance. Lige made up
his mind that this dog needed to
be taught humility. So out he
went and straightway engaged
the stranger. A cloud of dust,

"But how did you first get
them to go on the rope?v asked
the reporter.
"Well, ] first made them walk
a wide plank, laid fiat on the
ground, and by degrees / raised
it up and had another plank for
them to reach it by. Then I.us-
ed narrower timber, until they
were able to walk plank about
as wide as that rope. Then we
put them on the rope and held
them up so that if they did
fall they would not hurt Them
selves. After that they were able
to go by themselves. The main
thing is to get an elephant to
have confidence in you. Once
an elephant has confidence in her
