ter. The snds require twig OF hem
lock tied on, hanging down to give
them finish. We must loop the ever
green over the doors and windows.
Where the dark green trimming falls
among our plants at the south WIN
dows the effect is lovely. This vine
like trimming is particularly attractive
in the evening when the shadows are
reflected upon the walls. giving the
appearance of vines creeping all around
the room. Over some OF the pictures
we would suggest bow-knot OF ever
greens with long ends, over and under
others a cross, dove, or basket OF How
ers. Sadly and lovingly we twine
wreathes Of evergreen. intermixed with
clusters of bittersweet, around the pic
lures of some sweet, dear faces who
are with us now only in sweet memo
ries. II we have house plants, deep
dish filed with MOSES, ferns and otner
plants, autumn leaves pinned here and
there, with bouquet OF natural, fresh
flowers, our home will then present q
very attractive appearance.
The work gives pleasure in itself. 1t
makes the home seem CHEEKY and hone-
like ANY such work of mutual inter-
est strengthens the home love. 1t
makes happier and better children, as
well as truer, more devoted parents.
Let us celebrate our anniversaries by
making them fruitful of much good.
Let us enlarge our sympathies, em-
bracing some of our kindly remem-
brances outside our family friends. We
should educate our children to be will
ing co-workers. The boys should be
encouraged to make little brackets and
crosses, covering them with beautiful
MOSES. Making waz leaves, dressing
dolls, and such other work as mothers
can suggest, must busy the hands and
hearts of our little girls. How many
ways there are to interest children and
exert lasting influence upon their
characters for good, together with i'm
parting present enjoyment, if the moth

He said it was Kriss kringle, or jiag

"Why, dad wanted to trade it for

Am IN oniated Bread.

Ammoniated baking powders-that 10,
baking powders In which carbonate of am-
mo1ia Is used as an ingredient, and which
exhale an odor OF ammonia when heated
are classed by many eminent physicians and
sanitarians as superior TO all Others. Protes-
sor Hassell, of London, who is recognized as
highest authority on the subject of food
hygiene, commends in the strongest terms
the use of carbonate of ammonia as leaven-
ing agent, stating its great advantage to be in
its perfect volatility, which permits it 10 be-
by tine heat of baking, entirely thrown into
lesvsning gas whereby the bread is
raised. The experiment with heat
would seem TO indicate the superior, not
the inferior, value OF such baking powder
The little heat that is impaired TO il when
held over e gas jet, lamp, or stove, suiiices to
resolve the carbonate OF ammonia into leaveu-
ing gas and throw it Off The first heat OF
baking, therefore, will etfectually develop all
the gas, thoroughly lesven the Loaf, and dis
sipate the gas-producing ingredients OF
powder of this kind and this is the highest
test of perfect baking powder. Where
other alkalies alone are used they are not in
frequently retained, unresolved, through the
whole process Of baking, and remain an un-
wholesome ingredient In the finished bread.

a substitute for cream of tsrtar.-N. Y.

In every household we would strong

There is much pleasure in united home
work. Where all are interested and
busy there is sure to be happiness. We
always trim with fir or hemlock. For
some things the double tir-we call it
so-is lovely. Cedar and the trailing
evergreen are pretty when they are
first arranged, but soon look dry and
faded, while the hemlock will remain
bright and glossy as long as we care
for it, giving us no trouble about shed
ding its leaves.
We make sure of our branches, or
trees, some two weeks before Christ

evening-enough to secure us from in

care? Not she. indeed. The enthusi
asm is contagious, and she works with
the rest of US. She, with some of the
children, snip the pieces of hemlock

cut the pieces for trimming about a
quarter of a yard long; that gives us a
good end. and tiny branch on either

sPRINGFIELD's CONDITION.

The commercial and financial condition
of Springfield compares very favorably
with that of her sister cities. We know of
no town, large or small, that has fewer
suspensions or failures in proportion to
size; and few towns have q smaller num-
Der of vacant business houses or resi-
dences or smaller proportion of destitute
people; and we are quite sure that no town
more generously provides for its own poor
than does Springfield.
The promptness and liberality of Spring
field people in response to cries of distress,
whether from within our own limits or
from abroad, have become proverbial.
Springfield has had her tussle with the
general hard times, but she has kept a
firm upper lip, and has made the best of
her circumstances and opportunities; and
she will continue to maintain and illus
trate "the same"

CLEAN UPi

TIE sanitary condition of the city calls
for extraordinary effort from the city au-
thorities. Our streets and the premises
of citizens should be cleaned and kept
clean. as q sanitary precaution-a safe
guard against diseases, endemic and epi-
demic, the coming season. This work
should be taken in hand at once, and we
should have two sanitary marshals instead
of one-Mr. r. F. Gelwicks, who is dis
charging his duties faithfully, but who
cannot cover the whole ground.
There are certain portions of the CITY
which are now very filthy, and which will
certainly breed pestilence if they are al
lowed to remain so until spring. The
health officers should visit the cellars of
private houses, as well as private grounds,
and procure the removal Of all filth, and
give directions tor the proper disposal Of
all refuse matter.
Thoroughly to cleanse the city will re-
quire the labor of quite large number of
men; and just now there are many unem-
ployed persons who need work, and who
would be glad of au opportunity of doing
what is required.
The authorities should give this matter
prompt and energetic attention, and pro-
coed to appoint the necessary officers, to
employ men, and to push the work that
ought to be done. and must be done, at
once. Thus two important purposes would
be accomplished - the city would be
cleansed, and many needy but idle men
would be given employment

A HOUSE OF TORTURE.
ScandalOus State of Affairs in the Mary.
land House OF Correction.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 6.
For some days past a committee has been
examining into the management Of the Mary
land House of Correction at Baltimore, under
orders received from the board of managers
and their statement shows an almost incredi-
bly, disgraceful state of affairs. General
Frank A. Bond, who was appointed superin.
tendent of the institution by Governor Nc
Lane, is charged with the most inhuman
treatment of prisoners under his charge, as
of gross Encouragement of the affairs of the
institution. 1t was ascertained that in August
last a white man had been given 80 lashes
with raw hide on his bare back, and made
to wear heavy ball of iron. A colored man,
who was ordered to receive five lashes with
the cattail whip was given twenty with raw
hide, because it was claimed that cat has
four strings, and five strokes with it equals
twenty with q rawhide. Another man was
confined eight days in a dark cell on bread
and water. The ball and chain was attached
to prisoners unnecessarily, and shower baths
were administered cruelty. In addition to
these charges the committee accuses General
Bond of misappropriation of the funds Of the
institution. and of allowing the men employ.
ed about the place to absent themselves for
political purposes. 1t was unanimously voted
to dispense with his services.
