How TO Save i'm the House.
hold.

A practical question, surely, in
these days, and one in which
many are interested, whether suf-
ficiently 50 as TO benefit their fl
nances remains to be seen. The
frs. step in saving is to go TO mar
ket yourself. Tell the grocery boy
not to come again, and put on
your bonnet and shawl after
break fast, and go out and buy
what you need for the day AT
the end Of the month your expen-
ses will have been lessened and
your table improved. "How ~
By going TO the market you see
whatever fresh fruit or vegetables
are there; you can often buy a
cheap piece Of meat that is sweet
and good, and by cooking it in an
appetizing way, add to your list
of vegetables, make nice dessert,
and your dinner will not have cost
as much as formerly, when every
days dinner seemed alike. An
other way to save is to give up
buying at retail anything that
can be bought at wholesale, then
take the money saved and put it
away, as if it did not exist. The
idea Is a wrong one, that encon-
omy means parsimony, One OF
the surest ways to save Is 10 have
every dish we'll cooked, that moth
ing is TO be thrown away as
worthless. Were all the money
saved that is thrown out by un-
seasoned vegetables, underdone or
overdone meats, burned cakes and
pies, scorched oatmeal and rice,
many dollars would be added to
to the savings of the house. You
say, "How can / help it?' If you
cannot afford COOK, see to these
things yourself. Money is wasted
in little things more than in ex-
pensive articles of food, end if
money is an item to you, 1t is
worth a little trouble. A fourth
way to save money is to buy only
the healthiest and best dishes. BY
setting before your family good
meats, well cooked, good bread,
rightly made, fresh fruits and
vegetables, they will be healthy
aud save you doctors bill OF one
or more dollars q visit. Time as
we'll as money is saved by having
a bill of fare for each day in the
week, to be varied by times and
seasons. This saves the trouble of
thinking what to have next day.
Another way to save is by know
ing just how to use all that is left
from to days dinner. A French
cook will make bountiful and
enjoyable dinner of what others
would throw away. Why should
not we do as we'll? One of the
largest outlets to family's in
come is by tea or coffee. Aside
from the actual expense of the ar
ticles themselves, they neceSsitate
an increased milk bill, and the
item of sugar, which alone Is $50
a year. If any family really
wishes to economic let them try
these rules a year, and tell us if
they are disappointed.

Speaking upon the subject of
"Insanity," at a recent meeting of
the Medico-Legal Society, in New
York, Dr.. Geo. M. Beard remark
ed: Insanity is a barometer of
civilization, and as we advance
higher in the arts and sciences, so
will insanity become more preva-
lent among us. Intense applica-
ton, brain work and indoor life
are the agencies which most fire.
quently bring it about. Among
savages or barbarians there is little
or none of it. The intellectual ac-
tivity of the women of to day is
another great cause of insanity.

child be in an intenser degree, \

ucation, with less examining,
would tend to reduce the increase
of insanity While the DIR. may

ton, there is Much in his remarks

prove that language in its broad mean

the lower animals. The parrot, he
says, has vocal apparatus Of the most
perfect kind, and it can gather through
its ear the most delicate intonations of
the human voice, which it can initiate
perfectly by continued labor, and re-
tain them in its memory. 1t is also able
to associate words with the persons
who have uttered them, and even in

which are given out by objects in mo-

How Diamonds are Set.

in iewclry the leading fancy is 70,
solitaire earrings. Drop earrings are
out of fashion The mounting most in
vogue is of gold close to the ear, no
gold showing from the front, and in
some cases the points are of platina,
so that at short distance the setting
is invisible, and the stone appears as
though suspended in air. For such
handsome earrings covers of gold or
black are provided in ball shape, fitting
closely over the gem and giving the ef-
feet OF an ordinary ball earring. The
wife of a prominent politician of this
city, who possesses pair of very fine
solitaircs, wears them constantly fear
ing to trust them out Of sight, and on
ordinary occasions under their covers
they pass for modest jet balls.
Settings of black enamel are out OF

Sheep should have better care in

Sheep are commonly neglected more in

How to Do Up Lace Curtains.
After long experience in this direction
l have found the following the most sat
isfactory: Having washed and dried
them in the usual manner (when not
used in summer they may be put away
in this form, I starch and redry them.
Any number may be prepared in this
way, thus saving the trouble of making
starch every time that you wish to put
them upon the frame. Taking the num-
Der that I am to use at once, I dip them
into cold bluing-water and pass them
through the wringer. This will not re-
move the starch; it will only put them
into condition SO that when stretched
and dry the meshes of the lace will be
clear and free from starch, which will
not be the case if taken directly out of
hot starch. "-C0r. NJ r Times.

High Heels.

What reasons can be given from SCI.
ence or experience for high heels on
boots or shoes? We might, perhaps,
60 further and ask the reasons for heels
Of any kind? Did the Creator know
how to make the human foot? and if
He did, why do We not follow His
model? The very best last for hui
man foot is the undistorted, natural
foot. Stockings are made to fit this
foot in sensible manner, and why not
shoes? Certainly heels, and especially
high heels, do not conduce to ease or
comfort, for, whenever the wearer can
do so at home, slippers without heels
are used. 1t is just as certain that they
do not help grace or agility of motion,
for dancers on the stage do not, or at
all events did not, use them, if we ex-
cept clog-dancers. Neither do heels
help speed or continuance of walking
or running, for Indians, who sie re-
markable for both, use moccasins,
which conform precisely to the shape
of the foot French Canadian lumber
men, and many others who have much
open-air exercise, use "beef" boots
that is, boots made of thin red SOLE
leather, which nearly fit the natural
foot and which have no raised heels.
Clearly we think what are called heels
are mistake, and the only way we can
account for their universally in civil
ICED society was desire to keep the
foot out OF the mud. For this purpose.
however, high toes were as necessary
as high heels, and in point of fact very
thick soles are worn by farm laborers
in some countries, and clogs or wooden
shoes in others. All these are now su.
perscdcd by India rubbcrs, rendering
high heels or thick soles unnecessary.
Indeed, the heels of boots arc quite un
suitable for India rubbers. sS~'
Have our readers ever noticed the
celebrity and ease of a Clinaman's walk,
with his felt soles alike thick from heel
to toe? How little danger they incur
of tripping going down stair, or on an
uneven pavement, or icy ground. COM
pared with those who wear heels. r..
10 sum up, you can lind no better or
smarter walkers, runners and lcapcrs
than those who wear their foot cover
ings without heels, or wear 90 foot
coverings at all-danccrs who wear
pumps, Indians and many others who
wear moccasins, lunnbcrmen and
many others who wear beef boots,
Cinnamon who wear fclt-soled
slippers, and all Nations and tribes
that 90 barefooted or only wear
sandals. These classes probably con-
stitute five-sixths of the human race,
while those who wear heelcd boots and
shoes are not over onc-sixth, Il, d those
who wear high heels not OF Q hundredth
part of the human race. Whenever
sense has any thing to say in fashion,
high heels which place the foot on a
slope and force it tight down into the
toe of the boot, thereby deranging all
the natural arrangements for walking,
will be held in perfect contempt as akin
to the unnatural distortion of ladies'
feet in China.-N Y Witness.
