HOME LETTER.

In the last issue eft Graphic there
were directions for making table GOV.

tiful, but much too expensive for plain
country folks who have to exer,
every effort to snake both ends meet
like the "Home Circle" very much in
deed, and when open the paper as ii
comes to us fresh from the Office, the
very hrst thing l turn to is the woman's
department and usually do not stop
until l read both columns ;(which, Mr..
Editor is not near euongA. Why should
the men occupy the whole paper. and

little worth as to be put off with mere

But it will not answer for me to find
fault so much without offering some
compensation, SO 1 will tell how ] make
atable cover, lambrequins for my VIM
dows and cheap and easily made tidy
For the table cover get square o
bleached sheeting two yards wide, and
hem it it about an inch. Border it with
the cheap lace which can be bought
for about five cents per yard. Pin on
a strip of paper over the lace all around
and let it be wide enough to cover the
the hem and about an inch over; then
pin on another strip further in all
around the cloth, leaving a space about
six inches wide between the strips OF
paper. They should be wide enough
to protect the cloth from being soiled.
Cut vine of paper, leaves. tendrils,
and main stem, and fasten 1t all around
in the six inch space between the strips
Of paper. Have it all fastened very
smoothly to table, and spatter with |
India ink over the paper wire, using
great care to have the spatters very
fine, When dry, remove the papers
and paper vine, and you will have
lovely white vine with leaves and ten
drills. This is a beautiful, cheap, east
ly made; and, above all, will wash
and last for years.

Short Sighted Mothers.

We know OF short sighted, indul

her young daughter, is sacrificing ease
luxury. even health itself. They ar,
people in moderate circumstances, ant
upon the mother has fallen the triple
duties of laundry.woman and cook
What if her back did ache and he
eyes grow dim, her daughters clothing
must be ruffled, and tucked, and trim
med until it was as fine as that of othel
girls, or little finer ifpossible. Wha
If her health was failing from the hea
ard drudgery of the close kitchen, hel
daughters dainty appetite must be
gratified. And does she allow hel
daughter to share this work? Does
she teach her that the happiest house.
hold is one founded on the true com.
munistic idea, where all share equally
in the work and in the pleasure! No,
her daughters hands mus be kept soft
and white for playing on the piano.
They must do nothing coarser than the
daintiest fancy work and she must
have plenty of GU; door exercise, that
her complexion may not lose its bloom.
She must have recreation, too; and SO
when there are concerts and lectures
and entertainments, the daughter must
always go, while the mother, whom
they would SO much benefit and rest,
cannot spare the time, or else, can not
afford to go. And how has this course
oftraining fitted the girl for her struggle
with the world9 1t will not pet her as
her mothe. has done. On the contrary
there is kind of envy, or jealousy, in
struggling human nature, that makes 1t
all the more harsh to one who has al.
ways been shielded from its battles.
But if the mothers love should still be
spared for the protection of its object.
in its blindness it has robbed that
daughter of her most precious birth.
rlght-her mothers companionship.
For this woman has no time left from
her self-imposed duties for the improve
ment of her mind She seldom looks
at newspaper or magazine; as for
book, she cannot remember the last
one that she has read. So, when the
daughter has run across facts IN her
studies that are new and interesting to
her, and would gladly have talked them
over with her mother, she finds that her
mother has either forgotten about them
or else never heard of them. So she
gradually gives up the attempt to talk
on such subjects, for instead of enter
tanning her mother she only seemed to
weary and embarrass her. Their con.
versation therefore is limited to the
most commonplace subjects, and the
daughter seeks COMPROMISING among
those who have time to become cultur-
ed and intelligent companions. Can
you not, fond, foolish mother, for the
evil here presented find a remedy?-I

Treatment Of Diphtheria.

The Medical Press says that DR..
Deuker, who, during twenty-four years
of very extensive practice in the Chill
drens' Hospital, at St. Petersburg, has
treated upward of two-thousand cases
of diptheria, and tried all the remedies
both internal and external, employed
in this affection has obtained the best
rest results from the following method,
which he has employed for the last ten
years. AS soon as the white spots APP
pear on the tonsils, he gives laxative
mainly composed of SIENNA, which pro-
duces an abundant evacuation. When
the purgasive effect has ceased he gives
cold drinks, calculated with hydrochlo-
ric acid, and every two hours gargle
composed of limewater and hot milk in
equal parts. DIR. Deuker affirms that
whe., this treatment is commenced ear
ly 1t is generally and rapidly successful.

Having filed a clean key or barrel

If set in a cool place the eggs so

And the deepening shadows fell athwart

for his school had been all and all to him.
Who had no wife, nochild no land, no gold,
Bat his frame was weak and his eyes were dim,
And the fiat was issued at lss,-.'Too old.''
He bowed his head on his trembling hands
Amomeht. as one might bend to pray:

But they turned sway and my heart was lead :;

From a soul that saw by All inward light,
With words Of praise for work of care.
With kind rcproof for Il broken rule.
