In some of the Northern cities there
is a reaction against severe studies
for school children. A Philadelphia
paper reports that in several private
schools of that city the number OF
children who are mot allowed to
bring home work" is so large that
they form a separate division of the
school. In Milwaukee the system of
"home work" for pupils in the public
schools WAS to large extent abolish
ed few months ago. Ambitious
parents have often done their child
ren's health great injury by melting
them to overstudy. No attainments
can compensate for deterioration in
physical stamina,-[ Galveston News.

Taking Cars Of Mics Dresses.

There is an old proverb that says a
ladyis always to be known by her boots
and gloves. Quite Us crucial a test is
the facultysof taking good care or her
costumes, and one that quite as dis
tinctly marks the well-bred lady. Any
one can buy an elegant wardrobe if
they have money enough, but to take
: the requisite care to keep it fresh and
dainty requires something more than q
check book. Of keeping nice dresses,
lady writes: H., m .....: .>..
Each dress should have its own wrap
or cover to keep it from chatting and
fading. Take fine, firm cotton cloth,
something over a yard wide, cut it into
squares, then hem and wash the
squares. They should be fine, take no
room and weigh little; firm, to keep
away from dust; hcmmed, that you
may, keep the same side next the silk,
and washed, to do away with the
bleaching chemicals, which are liable
to change the color of the silk. Fold
the bottom of the train back. and; forth
in about eighteen or, twenty three-inch
folds, so as to tit the box you have for
it. The bottom now being all together,
YOU will coyer6it with q small cloth5or
towel, to keep the dusty train from
rubbing against tho cleaner parts OF
the robe; roll the whole dress loosely
! to the size and shape Of the box, lay it
! upon the white cloth, and fold the cor
.ncrs OF the same over the top of the
package and place it in the box. Now
] loosen the roll and adjust 1t to its space,
I so as to favor any delicate OF easily
B crushed portion OF the dress-as Medi-
lei collars. flower garniture, embroidery,
etc: relieving crowded places, and dis
tributing the thick to the thin spots.
Z When YOU come to use the robe shake
it out, and you will find it IN good con-
dition. The fold of q dress or shawl
/ will often work up between the trays

@ons, etc. get chafed into holes,teo
