HOME TALKS.

Some one tells 4 story of woman
Who each Spring reads all the adver
tisements Of medicines for spring debil
ity, and buying some of each kind anc
making up the beers, extracts. bitters
and tones, which are recommended to
her, she places them all upon the
shelves in her closets, and takes them
in rotation to keep off sickness-so she
saws. Some of them she thinks will be
sure 10 hit her case, and the others, il
they do not cure, will not kill. In
short she does not mean TO be ailing
if medicine will prevent it.
Now this seems very absurd, and it
is our opinion that the household de-
partner: is altogether too sensible to
do anything Of that kind, but once in a
while the inquiries for remedies. ac-
compamed by the remark that evey-
thing the sufferer could hear of has
been tried, brings up the ghost of an
idea that possibly TOO much reliance
is plcced upon drugs and herbs, and
too little upon the habits Of living A
little medicine to assist nature III her
efforts to ward off disease, is good
thing, but constant dosing simply clogs
up the system and intensihes the very
trouble it vas designed to cure.
As We said some time ago, extra
care is necessary in The spring to pre-
vent disaase, but it should consist
chiefly in . change Of diet, in open.air
exercise, etc. Vegetable acids are ex-
ceedingly important, and to those who
live in cities and towns it is easily pro-
cured in the shape Of oranges, lemons.
and other fruits. Those living in the
country can meet this necessity by pro-
viding fos II beforehand. Tart jellies.
and sauces made with cider, are excel.
lent. And that reminds Us Of the fact,
that one of the best things is sharp Ct.

WEARY WOMEN

draws q Vivid and truthful picture Of
weary woman, the counterpart of whic|
can be found in many household; a
Q remedy it Is proposed quite gravely
to let everything 90 unfinished rathe
than kill ourselves with overwork.
II the Sanitary Magazine were ;
woman, instead Of being man and ;
physician, he would know that it is cas-
ier said than done. Preaching is easy
enough but practice is the difficulty
Just suppose that \ young. bright, in
telligent girl should begin her married
life according to this advice, SHOULD
solemnly resolve to take care of hersel
as duty she owes to herself and to thu
children that may be hers; what woult
be the RESULT
His sister Jane would say: "Well.
do declare. John has got the LATEST wife
in Chnstendom; she thinks Of nobod,
but herself. guess John must be al
most starved, for there's never a pie OF
q bit Of cake in the house. My Heng
thinks he can't eat dinner without pie
and John couldn't either, before he wa:
married" Johns mother would sigh
and call him poor John" and tell nov
she brought up nine children and die
all her own wore, and how she used &c
scour the floor on her hands and knees
after the children had gone to led, and
would wind up with lecture on the de.
seneracy of modern women; and Joe's
wife. an ignorant, uneducated woman
would declare that Lizzie was awful
stuck up, and thought herself too good
to work; for her part she was glad she
hadn't no book larnin' an wasn't too
proud TO wait on Joe" If the young
wife did not visit and entertain compa-
ny, the neighbors would call her big
feeling and exclusive, and contrast her
with that dear delightful Mrs. Smith
who was SO pleasant, and always had a
houseful of people visiting her.
Well, if John were suited 1t would
not be so much matter, but John isn't.
He remembers how his mother and sis.
tiers ran at his bidding; he thought his
wife would bring him his shirt. tie his
neck-tie, and trot around and wait on
HIM generally, and even before the
honeymoon is fairly over, he begins to
think he has made mistake.
What can a woman do! Nine out Of
ten will give il up and do like the rest;
work, work all day. and after lying
awake half the night with restless
baby (restlcss in consequence of the
mothers overwork), drag herself out Of
bed the next morning to begin the same
life over again. OF course she becomes
silent. cross, unable to sympathise with
or cheer her husband, and will soon
wear herself out in his service. But
what matter There are plenty Of
women younger and tairer than she.
ready to take her place.
A woman Of resolution may persist
in her course, and keep on as duty and
her own interests dictate; but she must
have nerve, she must possess strong
will, she must be impervious to ridi-
cule, and insensible 10 reproach; and
even then she will find that the Indian
custom Of running the gauntlet, was
pleasant pastime compared with the
torture she will have to undergo.

A Cheap Way to Dissolve Bones

This can be easily done without the
use OF sulphuric acid. Strong lye, from
hard wood ashes, will do the work, and if
you have large iron pot, or boiler, you
can have them ready Tor use in short
time. Throw in ashes and bones together
for an hour or two. Set aside and let
cool. The bones will now be found to be
in soft and brittle state, and may be
readily crushed under slight pressure.
The contents of the boiler-lye, ashes,
and bones-are all excellent material for
the compost heap.
But, perhaps, economical housekeepers
will prefer to utilize the bones for soap.

idea, as the bones, waste lye, and other
refuse, after the soap is made can be car

How to Shear Sheen.

see an inquiry about how to shear
sheep, and as am an experienced sheep
shearer, l will give my way. Take
piece of Oil-cloth about six ieet square
and tack the sides down on the floor loose
enough to permit sufficient amount OF
cut hay, or even straw, to be stuffed under
it to make a cushion, then tack the fourth
side down. This makes a nice, clean, soft
place to shear on. Provide yourself with
good, bright, highly-polished pair of
Offset shears, that is, shear that the
blades set down from the hand hold.
Set the sheep up with his belly toward
you, then commence at the foretop AID
shear down around the head and neck,
and strip one shoulder; then turn and
shear dowr the other shoulder and side
and belly aud one hind leg all along the
backbone; then turn over and shear down
the other side, keeping he sheep in sit
ing position most of The time. In turning
the sheep let the head hang over one
knee, and then the other, in easy position
for sheep and shearer. When you want
the hind leg straig htened out, do not take
hold of the leg with your hand, but put
your thumb on the stife joint, as it is
called in horses, and press back; the leg
will straighten out smooth, and the sheep
will hold still but if you take hold of the
leg and undertake to pull it out straight,
the sheep will kick and struggle. Keep
the sheep in such position that the skin
will be tight all the time where you are
shearing; do not pull the wool down, as
that pulls the skin mp, and you will cut it,
but pull the akin up tight and bend the
sheep so the surface you are shesring over
will be as smooth as possible. Never til.
sheep, and do not use any violence toward
them. When you catch a sheep take
hold around the body, do not catch hold
of the wool on the back and drag them to
the place of shearing; of course this way
will be new to many, and you will think
ut first that it will be almost impossible TO
shear this way, but stick to the directions
given here and in a short time you will
become an expert if you can ever learn.
Some men can never learn to be fast
shearers, can shear pound of wool a
minute off good Sheep Correspondent
