the problem half solved if they gave a
proper amount of attention to home
dress.
The woman who is both mistress and
servant, as very many housekeepers are.
is constantly met by the temptation to
neglect her own adornment and sacri-
fee her own tastes and wishes to the
numberless demands upon her time and
strength. OF course to a busy woman
every moment is precious, yet few
spent in freshening the toilet will scarce
~ be missed and somehow one feels
rested, and the work goes easier for It,.
The habit of dressing neatly at home
like all other habits, is strengthened by
practice, and if girl is early taught
that neatness IN dress Is one of the car
dinal virtues, she will practice it almost
unconsciously.
1t should be part of girls home
training mot only the duty but the
method. Let the child understand that
it is to please others rather than to win
admiration for herself and it will but
help to make her thoughtful.
This is subject which concerns US
all, and il We give the matter the
thought which it deserves we shall see
its Importance more clearly.
If we hold up the mirror of theory in
which to view our practice no doubt
many of rs will find imperfections
which need only be seen tc be remedied,
So we shall be helped thereby, our
homes made brighter, and our families
happier.

com1non-sense and Hygiene.

SAID friend, whose vacation in the
country had been cut short by case of
diphtheria manifestly due to foul sur
roundings, II should think common
sense would teach men the danger Of
such things"
But common-sense, after all, is, doubt
less, only right ideas so commonly ac-
cepted as to be generally acted on with
out concious thought
This, however, comes of prior intel
hgence.
Think of the common-sense of India
in hygiene. where the very filth IS al
lowed to embody itself in a pestilence
which every decade sweeps round the
globe.
Think of the common sense of our
British ancestors, when rotten straw
within the house, and narrow, dark and
damp streets with open cutters perpet
ually flowing, made the Plague fixed
inhabitant for over seventy years, that
at length, some more than two centu
ries ago, baeame famous in history as
the Great Plague by its desolating fury.
Think of the common-sense even of
our own fathers, who filled the land
with cesspools, with not thought of
the wells into which their contents
leached; and their cellars with all
sorts of decaying vegetables; and who
looked on all contagious epidemics sim
ply as visitations from God for sin with
out once suspecting that it was for the
sin of transgressing that divine law
which demands purity of water and air,
as well as of heart.
Take this Casa beautiful residence,
with its natural hygiene perfect; its
owner and occupant, the learned Pre-
sident of a literary institution the only
access to its cellar, a door from the CEN
trail hall, and the cellar stored with win
ter's supply of potatoes and of veget-
ables generally; at some distance cess
pools, and stables for horses and COWS,
and long passage, covered on every
side, fully connecting them with the
dwelling, and ensuring free flow of
miasm to the latter, and-the yenera-
BILE president sick with typhoid fever
Take another Casa clergyman s
house, stable, pig stye and vaults prac-
ticalIy under one roof; child dies of
diphtheria and the father of typhoid
fever,
Neither of these cases date back forty
years; in both the men were far above
the average for intelligence.
Think of people going into the coun-
try or to the mountains for pure air and
then sleeping in close rooms.
The fact is, it is only within few
years that men have begun to study and
apply the laws of hygiene. The results
Of this study must be the improvement
in health of all civilized nations

One Kind of Home Influence.

1t Is part of every woman's duty to
dress neatly and becomingly at home
Whatever outside duties woman may
be called upon to perform, she is the
centre of the home circle On her de-
ponds largely the attraetiveness of the
home, and no woman has a right to dim
its brightness or lessen her power by
being careless concerning her personal
appearance.
1t may seem like bold assertion, but
it is none the less true that woman
who is always neatly dressed is able to
exercise a greater influence for good
than one who is the reverse.
The well-dressed woman is more at
tractive to the eve, and the eye is one
of the main avenues to the heart.
Other things being equal her influence
is more potent than her neighbors,'
whose reputation of dressing lust as it
happens" at home in some detinable way
casts a shade over whatever virtues she
nav possess. 4 woman neatly dressed
is ready for emergencies. The chance
caller and the unexpected guest finds
her ready to receive tiRm. But per-
haps the greatest necessity for looking
well at home exists in the home itself.
To the members of our own family cir
Gle we owe our first duty. A tidy we'll
arranged home is very invitingto tired
man and the charm is heightened if she
who presides over the home is neat and
tidy also. And perhaps some who are
ever studying the subject of how to keep
the boys at home evenings would find

Magnificent Distances III Texas.

From the Gree. vile, (Texas) Banner.
The distance from Dallam county, in
the Texas Par Handle to Brownsville,
at the mouth of the Rio Grande, is 800
miles; but we can better realize how far
it is by saying that it is nearer from
Dallam county, Tex, to St. Paul,
Mimi, or to Bismarck, y. T., or to He
lena, NJ. T., or to Salt Lake City, Utah,
than it is from Dallam county to
Brownsville. Tex. 1t is also nearer
from Brownsville to Guatemala III
Central America, than from Browns
Vile to Dailam county. Again, it Is
nearer from Liscomb county, Tex, to
st. Louis, than from the same county
to Galveston And even Chicago and
Cincinnati are nearer to Texas than
Dallam county is to Brownsville. 1t
is further from Texarkana to Ell Paso
than from Texarkana to West
Virginia old Virginia of North Carolina.
Suppose a gentleman should start from
Savannah. Ga. on the Atlantic, to look
mt a track of land at Ell Paso. After
travelling three days and nights ON a
passenger train he might arrive at
Orange, Tex. Ofcourse when he put his
foot on Texas soil he would begin to
look around to see how he liked the
country, by way of deciding whether he
would buy the Ell Paso land or not.
But if told that he was not half way
from Havana to lei Paso, he might turn
back discouraged, but such would be
the fact Again, Texas wants deep
water at Galveston. But it is nearer
from FL Paso, Tex, to the deep harbof
of San Diego, Cal. than from Ell Paso
to Galveston In fact, more than | 900
miles of the Pacific coast, extending
from Los Angeles. Cal, to Mazatlan,
Mexico, is nearer Ell Paso than any part
OF the Texas gulf coast.
