prepare the food Of the household.
Teach them to wash, to iron, and to
darn stockings, to sew on buttons.
and to make their own dresses. Teach
them to make bread, and that q good
kitchen lessons the doctors account.
Teach them that he only lays up
money whose expenses are less than
mis- income, and that all grow poor
who have to spend more than they
receive. Teach them that q calico
dress paid for fits better than silken
one unpaid for. Teach them that q
full, healthy face displays greater
lustre than fftyconsumptive beauties.
Teach them to purchase, aud to see
that the account corresponds with
the purchase. Teach them good
common sense, self.trust, self-help
and industry. Teach them that a..
honest mechanic in his working dress
Is better object of esteem than a
dozen naughty finely-dressed idlers.
Teach them gardening and the pleas
ures of manure. Teach them. il you
can afford it, music, paintings, ETC..
but consider them as secondary OBJ
jects only. Teach them that walk
is more salutary than a ride in q
carriage. Teach them to reject with
disdain all appearances and to use
only Yes or mo" in good earnest
Teach them that happiness in matri-
mony depends neither on external
appearances, nor ON wealth, but or
the mans character.

.sllppery Ned Z"

Edward Cassidy, one of Wilmington 8 no.
torious law breakers, has fairly earned the
soa.briquet of ''Slippery Ned" as yesterday
he made his third shrewd and clever escape
from the clutches Of the law.
These repeated escapes of Cassidy are be-
coming very Suspicious. On various ocea-
slons he has eluded the officers OF the law,
and once, after having been brought into
court, walked out of the court room ti9ht un-
der Sheriff Clark's eyes. Yesterday, while
being taken to New Castle in charge Of one
of Chief Hawkins fATorite "models," he
deftly slipped his handouts, while the care
ful guardian was at the other end OF the
car procuring drink of water, and jump
ing from the moving train, gleefully made
his escape.
We do not see why notorious criminal
like Cassidy should be treated with such
astonishing leniency. True, in the
past, he has rendered repeated services Il
local Republican politicians, but no amount
OF this kind of service should be sufficient tC
Justify the officers Of the law in allowing
him to clip away whenever he falls isto
their clutches.
These escapes of notorious Ned Cassidy
have been permitted long enough, and 1t il
about time they were investigated, anC
those responsible punished for their crImi
nal carelessness.

Do you know why many OF
these designs are SO very origi-

Eastern homes with no pat

leaves the loom to get dinner,
another takes it up and runs
in colors and tiguresson the in-

Through all these quaint con-
ceptions, though, certain sort
OF harmony runs, that comes oI
the native skill and taste oI
these simple people.

BELIEVERS In superstition and demon
ology will find much to strengthen their be-
lief in the story of the st. Louis girl who
ran away wi h a married man, aud who de-
clared that he looked at her with "evil
eyes," the subtle power of which she was
unable to resist. Sensible people, however,
will prefer to believe that the girl simply
yielded to her own evil nature.
