Anna Maria's Housekeeping. By Mrs.
s. D. Power. Boston: D. Lothrop & Co.
Price S1.OO. If we were asked to recon-
mend any one single book to young house
keeper which should serve as a domestic
guide, counsellor and friend, we should un-
hesitatngly name Anna MariG's House
keeping. So far as our knowledge extends,
there is no other book which SO exactly and
thoroughly fulflls the needs implied in
those titles. It is no mere collection Of re-
ceipts, but common-sense treatise on the
whole science of housekeeping, tersely and
clearly written with flavor of experience
about it that makes one accept it as author
tative. It is a staff upon which the young
uousekeeper may confidently lean, and by
| the aid of whish she may overcome OBJ
stacles which without it would seem insur-
mouutable. Mrs. Power does not believe
IN house keeping itself It requires con-
tinual care and oversight and a clear
knowledge of what is to be done. She be-
ieves, too, that house can be well kept as
easily as badly kept, and that a bright,
clean, well-ordered home 8 a deal to do
with molding the temper and even charac-
Ter Of itsmembers 1T is no small thing,
she says, "to stand at the head of affairs,
and be the motive power on which depend
the welfare and credit, the health, temper
and spirit of the whole family. When in
midlife you come to find how essential the
comfort of a well-kept home is to the bodily
strength and good conditions, to a sound
mind and spirit, and useful days, you will
reverence the good housekeeper as I do,
above poet or artist, beauty or genius" In
the opening chapter of the book the author
nstructs Anna Maria in the art of Chow to
t make Homework Easier" In the succeed
3 ing chapters she takes up the various kinds
Of work there is to be done about the house,
r aud describes the easiest methods Of doing
e it. "No attitudiniz ing" the remarks, INC

The Problem OF Human FLIGHT,

The subject of my papcr-nying-ma-
chines-in general way. is of inter-
est to everybody. But. to those who
have given it more particular attention,
1t is not only interesting but fascinat-
ing, and little dangerous. The path
way has been strewn with wrecks; and
L fear there is feeling prevalent that,
after all. 1t loads nowhere in purtcu-
lar, unless it be to the almshouso or
lunatic asylum.
Still, there arc times when we hoarti-
ly onyy the birds their wonderful DOW
er. ! remember in reading, | think,
MIR. Wallace's book on tho AmaZons.
that he was once standing on tho shore
of the mighty river, confronted by an
impenetrablo wall Of green, concealing
within itself doubtless no end of new
plants and beetles; and when gayly
painted macaw came sailing laZily
along and disappeared behind the tree
tops without any sort of trouble, he
gavo vent emphatically to the general
wish to fly. and to feeling of surprise
that apparently so simple u problem
should have remained so long un-
solved.
lpropose here to give an account of
some of the attempts to fly that have
been made in the past. and are now
being made; and TO Try to explain the
principles involved, and why success
has not been achieved.
The old Greeks and Romans very
sensibly appear to have been content
to give the gods and birds and butter
flies monopoly of tho air; for, except-
ing. the story of D@dalus and Icarus.
httlo mention has been made by classi.
cal writer's of attempts to fly, or Of Hy-
ing-machines.
Dedalus, 1t seems, had killed. n man
in Athens, and with his unfortunate
son fled to Crete, where King Minos
Yesy properly detained hir1; but, de-
tern ined to escape, he made wings of
feas!iers cemented with wax, and, in-
sttucting lcarus to fly neither too high
nor too low. but to closely follow him,
launched himself into the air, and took
Q bee"line for Greece. The young man.
however, was ambitious, and, flying
too near the sun, the wax melted, and
he perished in tho sea--a warning to
future generations. - "FEying-MG-
