That is what Alice Belden always
says when she is told not to do any
thing She is a sweet, pretty little girl,
but she is an only child, and is badly
spoiled. When her mamma says:
Come now, Alice, and learn your les
sons; do not swing any longer this
morning." Alice whines out: But |
want to!'' And then her weak mother
does not say any more.
One day her nurse was with her by
the riverside, and Alice got into little
rowboat that was there. "Oh, Miss
Alice, >" said the nurse, you must not
do that | am sure your mamma would
not like it."
But | want to-" said Alice, in pet,
and she lifted one of the big oars and
tried to put it into the water How
frightened she was when the little boat
turned over, and she felt herself going
down, down in the deep river! The
foolish child would have been drowned
had not some men in the field heard the
cries of her nurse and plunged into the
water to save her.
| hope Alice will learn before long
that But | want to- is not n good rea-
son for doing anything that it is not
best to do.-OUr lambs.

FOR OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
MARGIE AND THE GOLDEN-RoD.

40 pretty Lady Golden-Rod.
I'm glad you've come TO town.
/ saw you standing by the gate,
All in your yellow gown.
No one was with me, and | thought
You might be lonely too;
And so l took my card case
And came to visit you.
You're fond OF company, know;
You smile so at the sun,
And when the winds go romping past
You bow to every one.
How you should ever know them all,
I'm sure can not tell;
But when come again, hope
NOul know me Just as well.
love you, Lady GOlden-ROd;
You are so bright and fine;
You never have a rumpled frOck,
Or tangled hair like mine.
l think your mamma comes at night
When We are all away,
And dresses you in green and gold
Fresh for another day.
How tall YOU are, dear Golden-Rod!
Your taller INC st than |;
can not grow so very fast,
Although try and try.
Oh, here's mamma, dear GOlden-ROd!
IN ask her please to stop;
and She shall say which one of US
Comes highest at the top"
The lovely Lady Goden-Rod!
She surely understood;
For when wee hargie turned around,
She bent down all she could,
Until the fluffy yellow heads
Upon Il level came,
And hargie's mother, smiling, said:
Your heights art just the same,"

Charles Henderson says that the
ventilation of greenhouse has more
to do with the health of its contents
than any other one cause This is par
ticularly true of roses. If air is given
in a rose house day and night during
July and August, there will be little
trouble with mldew, as the cool night
air and the action Of the wind all tend
to tougher the fiber of the wood and
leaves and give strength of constitution
to the whole plant, so that when the
spores of mildew and other fungoid
diseases strike, they do not take root,
but glance on harmlessly from the
hardened and fortified foliage -PAtla-

IRONING,



As in washing, everything should be
ready and in proper order before the
days work is begun. The irons should be
scrupulously clean and smooth; this can
be done by rubbing them w tn beeswax
and salt or powdered bath brick. The
heaviest irons accomplish the best work,
and should be used with rolling mo-
ton and Il strong pressure. Muslins and
prints do not require very hot irons, but
stiff white garments need hotter ones.
The ironing table and board should be
firm and strong and covered with q
coarse wooden blanket, over which a
clean coarse sheet should be pinned A
bosom board about eight inches wide,
and long board for skirts and dresses,
are a necessity to the laundry. Iron
holders should be padded to protect the
hand from burning. Collars, cuffs and
similar articles should be covered with
a clean, thin cloth, and the iron passed
over it several times, when it may be
removed and the iron passed directly
over the article. Fine, soft laces and
muslins that do not require polishing
should be carefully unrolled, one at a
time, and spread on a soft blanket, COW
cred with thin, soft sheet. Laces, en-
broideries and trimmings must be care
fully pulled into shape, with all the
edges and purling picked out; those
needing ironing carefully smoothed,
and those that do not, folded. Always
iron by the thread of the material. En-
broidery should be ironed on the wrong
side of a soft blanket.
In ironing shirts use heavy irons well
heated. First iron the thick bands,
then the bodies and sleeves, and last
the bosom, which should be rubbed
over with clean cloth wrung out of
warm water. Then the iron should be
passed over rapidly, then rubbed again
with damp cloth and ironed until it
is polished. To gloss the linen a
polishing iron with smooth, round edge
should be used with all possible force.
The thickest parts of dresses, such as the
Wristbands, the gathers and sleeves.
should be ironed first. Dresses should
always be ironcd on the wrong side
first and finished on the right. Fine
muslins look much better if they are
ironed twice in opposite directions.
Caps, tichus and aprons, where the lace
is full, should have the frill ironed first
In plating trills, each plat should be
laid by the thread, and held until
ironed in. place.
While ironing is difficult work to &C
complish nicely, any housekeeper who
will take the trouble to give personal
supervision to the work will soon teach
even an Indifferent servant to do it
properly. A willing hand, guided by a
kind and intelligent instructor will
soon overcome all obstacles and make
the work easy.-MrS. Else Z. Parker,
IN Good Housekeeping.

There is a general belief that late
cultivation is injurious to the potato,
causing it to set large number Of
small tSbers with few marketable speci-
mems. This effect is the result of deep
blowing between the rows after the po-
tatoes have set. Shallow culture does
no injury at any time, and pulling out
grass or weeds is beneficial even after
the potatoes are half-grown.-Ioledo
Blade
When oats fall down after getting
full in head the quality of the grain is
not much affected, providing they have
cool weather to fall in. The largest
crops almost always fall before they
are ready to cut and the principal loss
is from the greater difficulty in harvest
ing and the waste of heads cut too shGFt

4 London Socialist.

PEN PORTRAIT OF A RICH POET, DESIGNER
AND MANUFACTURER.
From late London Letter.
At q recent socialist demonstration my atten-
ton was drawn to q person who occupied a
seat in brake labelled speakers" He wore
a low soft felt hat and suit of nautical cut.
His weather-worn features strengthened the
impression that he was pilot. Later on was
permitted to enter the same vehicle from which
he and others addressed some 10000 people.
His voice was harsh, his language unpublished
and his sentiments highly sociaIiStic. Work
ing-men, he said, were regarded by capitalists
not as mechanics. but as machines, and the
rule was 10 get as mucn labor out of them for
as little money as possible. They were driven
just short of death.
Whilst he was thus speaking 1 narrowly eX-
amined the man. His clothes were OF blue
serge, frayed at the cuffs and greasy at the
seams. He wore II dirty blue linen shirt with
out collar or nec.She, his iron-gray beard ragged
and untrimmed, barely conceaing their alb
sence. His fat, clumsy -lOOking fingers grasped
a walking-stick with a handle OF horn. No
watch chain, sleeve links or personal adorn.
ment OF any kind relieved his shabbinesS and
yet this person was Mr.. William Morris, the
poet OF worldwide reputation, the artist who
mas remOdcled our domestic interiors, the man
of fine sentiments, of highly cultivated tastes,
the lover OF the beautiful i'll language and in
form.
No wonder the ignorant policemen at the
Thames police court made a mistake in arrest
ing him, for there is little in his outward APP
peartnce TO denote that within his corpuent
frame turk such attuned SenSbiiitieS. He is u
bundle OF contradictions, apart from his attire,
and II is not quite clear how he can reconcile
his position as q rich manufacturer with his
reporter meant it when he styled him 'author
OF the Earthly Paradox at any rate, the SUBJ
editor OF the 81. James Gazette did not correct
the blunder.
