willing to be girl if it were not for
the chores. There is great comfort
to boy in the amount of work he
can get rid of doing. 1t is sometimes
astonishing how slow he can 90 on
an GRAND. Perhaps he couldn't ex-
plain it himself why when he is sent
to the neighbors after yeast, he stops
to stone the frogs. He is not ex-
actly cruel, but he wants to see if he
can hit 'em. 1t is a curious fact
about boys that two VIII be a great
deal slower in doing anything than
one. Boys have a great power of
helping each other do nothing.
But say what you will about the
general usefulness of boys, farm
without boy would soon come to
grief. He is always in demand. In
the first place, he is to do all errands,
60 to the store, the post-office, and
to carry all sorts of messages. He
would like to have as many legs as q
wheel has spokes, and rotate about
in the same way. This he sometimes
tries to do, and people who hsve
seen him 'tturning cart wheels along
the side of the road have supposed
he was amusing himself and riding
his time. He was only trying to in
vent a new mode of locomotion, SO
that he could economic his legs, and
do his errands with greater dispatch.
Leap frog is one of his methods of
getting over the ground quickly. He
has natural genius for combining
pleasure with business.
1t is a serious wind that blows no
one any amusement, and the strike
of the telegraph operators, trouble
some as, it has been, is not without
its humorous incidents. A few days
after the strike began, the operator
at LIE Roy, N. Y, was trying to con-
vey message to green hand, some
hundred miles away, who had taker
the place of an expert.
i He. tried again and again to make
the new hand comprehend a simple
sentence. At last, his failures Sc
irritated him, that he sent the fol
lowing over the wires, with lightning
rapiditys
"yoa,re a fool ~
The answer came back with pain
ful deliberation,-
"Say--it-slower."
The lie Row operator gave it up.

HOME DECORATIONS.

With an expenditure of few cents
a looking-glass with a frame of
brown wood can be wonderfully i'm
proved. Buy some pale yellow tarle-
ton of sufficient length to allow it to
be fastened to the top of the mirror,
and then to hang at each side of it in
graceful folds; cross the ends at the
bottom, and fasten with a loose knot.
AS it is quite the thing to suspend
fancy cards, for decoration, it is de-
sirable to have various ways of ar
ranging them. Perhaps this pleasing
one has not suggested itself. Have
a board cut the desired shape, beveled
on the edge. Cover it with velvet or
Canton flannel, as circumstances de-
termine. Attach it to the wall with
brass hooks on which to suspend the
wall ornaments.
An attractive chair or sofa cushion
is made of contrasting shades of vel
vet, satin or cashmere. Take two
squares of the same material, the size
you wish your cushion to be; cardi-
nal and pale blue, or black and old
gold are suitable colors. Cut each
square into two parts diagonally !;
| sew together half of each color !;
embroider a design over the seam or
not, as you please; sew the squares
together, and finish with a heavy cord
to match the material !; place a heavy
tassel at each corner, and it is fin
ished.
Very pretty covers for small tables
may be made of various dark rich
! shades of double-faced Canton fan
mel. A handsome and effective one

HOW TO PREPARE PRESERVE
FRUITS, &C.

Now is the time when the house |
keepers every spare moment, and
some she cannot well spare, go to
making up into jams, jellies, and
canned condiments the different
fruits of the summer. Anxiously we
toll for fear the season will pass be-
fore we have them secured. What
care it requires to weigh and prepare
the berries! How deep into the
pocket one dives for the extra sugar
money too But we know that it is
worth while when winter comes and
we have secured the toothsome adj
juncts to the tea-table. In making
strawberry jam it is good plan to
put one pint of red currant juice to
every pound of the fruit. Boil the
juice and fruit twenty minutes before
adding the sugar, which should be
about three-quarters of pound to a
pound of fruit. Put in small jars :;
the currant juice is an improvement
as to flavor. Gooseberry jam is i'm
proved in just the same way. Yellow
tomatoes make good preserve.
Peel and leave overnight in a deep
dish covered with sugar, pound for
pound. Drain off the syrup and boil
it, skimming well. Boil the tomatoes
in it, adding the juice of three lem
ons. In twenty minutes take it of
the fire skim out the tomatoes boil
the syrup down till it thickens; pack
the fruit in jars, and pour the syrup
over them then seal tight. Use the
$ purest sugar and a porcelain kettle
for all preserves take time and have
; method in preparation. Then, if the
'. fruit has been picked dry, and the
e. fire is not too strong, there is no dan
lie ger for your preserves in either eat
ing OF keeping qualities.

For soda biscuit take a quart of
unsifted flour, tablespoonful of su-
gar, tablespoonful of butter. three
teaspoonfuls of salt, and milk enough
(nearly pint) to make soft dough.
Lard or drippings may be used in
stead of butter, and water instead of
milk. The dry ingredients are mixed
together and rubbed through a sieve !;
then the milk is added, and the mix
ture stirred with a spoon until a
smooth paste is formed. The mould
ing-board having been sprinkled with
flour, roll the dough down to the
thickness of about half an inch. Cut
into small cakes and bake fifteen
minutes in very hot oven.
