A Sewing Machine Motor.

l-NV u lDuhb
Gentle woman has often been reproached
for her lack of inventive skill. The various
labor-saving appliances of the kitchen are
invariably the work of man, and even the
sewing machine, which has released fair
fingers from unending toll and ~drudgery,
was not a woman's idea Even when the
sewing machine had been perfected, mans
solicitude for women did not end, for the
working of the treadle involved fatigue and
annoyance from which he thought she ought
to be relieved. For many years inventors
have been at work upon innumerable con-
t%rivances for operating the sewing machine,
experiments having been made with steam,
compressed air, gas, electricity, and mechan-
ical devices without end.
The problem has been a most difficult one,
but it is now thought that n solution has been
obtained. An Englishman named Watkins
has recently completed an invention which
can be applied to any sewing machine so as
to keep the wheel in motion without pressure
of.foot or hand. And what is the main ele-
ment of this new devicel 1t is a box of tape
tho one thing above all others of which u
woman rather than a man ought to have
thought. 1t is steel tape to be sure, and is
wound up so as to serve as a coiled spring for
use, and is prevented by ratchet and click
from releasing itself. There is a good deal of
clock-work connected with it and an in
genious method of compromising the action

You cannot over-estimate the Importance of
surroundings upon the physical and mental
condition of the children Choose for them a
large, sunny room, well lighted, and in winter
well warmed; here collect the treasures that
delight children, and hang the walls with
pictures, scenes from the good old fairy
stories that go down from generation to gen
GRAFTON. Try to get games that mean some
thing; animals to take to pieces and put to-
gether again, horses to be harnessed into
carts, etc. Have it laid down as a nursery
axiom that broken things do not mend them
selves, and that willful destruction of property
is followed by going without. In this way
you can check restlessness. Have meum and
respected. The small inhabitants of
your earthly paradise may borrow courte-
ously from each other, but must never vio-
late the laws of property. MAKE the children
pick up their toys, and wait on themselves
when possible; and absolutely forbid their
making their nurse a slave. In this way they
will learn TO be self-helpful and self reliant.
VIII the children's confidence by proving
yourself a sympathizer in every joy and sor-
row. So few of us older ones realize how all
absorbing the affairs of the present are to the
little ones, and how easily the tender feelings
are wounded by even the implied suggestion
that you don't care.

Under the present order of things, should
the novelist go into the highways and resorts
of the world to study reality, he will find
many a daughter of the gods, ~divinely tall,
and the most divinely fair, who, when her
lips are opened, will dispel the charm of her
presence and bring to mind the old fairy tale
of the damsel from whose lips dropped toads
and snakes at every word; who acknowledged
no law of etiquette but her own within; whose
standard of regard to others is her own con-
venience; whose greatest virtue is Indifference,
and whose best charm is absence. 1t is true
that at summer resorts there are charming
and lovely girls, but their refined presence
is completely overshadowed by the pushing,
noisy vulgarity of the registering girl of the
period, the girl whose family is often excel
lent, whose advantage socially and educa-
tionally nave been all that position and
wealth could command, yet who remains TO
the end vulgar, selfish, and obtrusive.

For n street window.

If the room opens upon a street, there is ar
excuse for the dainty sash curtains that let
in the light, while they keep people outside
from looking in. Indeed, these sash curtains
of scrym, or ~muslin-are pretty at any
time, and tone down the bright sunshine of
our American climate in a grateful way.
But they should not be white. White cur.
tains at a window will destroy the color
effect of almost any room. If the sash cur
tains are of white stuff let them speedily be
made an ecru color, by dipping them into
strong coffee; but it is better that they
should be wrought of brown or unbleached
fabric in the first instance. Some of the
