The Latest Mesmeric Craze.

The craze of tablc-turning has abso-
lutely gone out of fashion, and 1t is
quite long time since We heard of our
old friend Planchctte. A new thing
much moro wonderful than Planchettc
Is now coming into vogue. t consists
of rectangular board, two feet long by
eighteen inches wide, on which are
placed oil the letters of the alphabet. A
miniature thrce-legged table on small
rollers is placed oh the top OF tho board.
Two persons sit down with their finger
tips on the tablo in the old fashion suit
able for hble-turning. A question is
asked, and the table forthwith moves
about, and with its legs pointing to sue
cess.vc letters OF the alphabet, spells
out tho answer. There is something
novel about this, though it is not likely
to succeed in reviving the excitement
which once gathered about moving ta-
blcs and revolving hats.-M y. Herald.

CHEERFUL HOMES.
Retreats Garnlshed with Grace and Sweet.
oned with Love and Smllcs

Retreats Garnished with Grace and Sweet.
oned with Love and Smiles.
A single bitter word may disquict an
entire family for whole day. One
surly glance casts a gloom over the
household, while smile, like a CLEAN
Of sunshine, may light up the darkest
and weariest hours. Like unexpected
flowers which spring up along our path
full Of freshness, fragrance and beauty,
so the kind words and gentle acts, and
sweet dispositions make glad the home
where peace and blessing dwell, No
matter how humble the abode, il 1t be
thus garnished with grace and sweetened
with kindness and smiles, the heart will
turn longingly toward it from all the
tumults OF the world; and home, II 1t be
ever so homely, will be the dearest spot
under the circuit of the sun.
And the influence Of home perpetuate
themselves. The gentle grace Of the
mother lives in her daughters long after
her head is pillowed in the dust Of death,
and fatherly kindness finds its echo in
the nobility and courtesy Of sons who
come to wear his mantel and to I'LL his
place, while, on the other hand, from
on unhappy, misgoverned and disor-
dered home go forth persons who shall
make other homes miserable, and per-
petuate the sourness and sadness, the
contentious, the strifes, the railings,
which have made their own early lives
so wretched and distorted.
Toward the cheerful home the children
gather ''as clouds, and as doves to their
windows" while from the home which
Is the abode Of discomfort and strife and
trouble, they fly forth as vultures to
rend their prey.-FarmeSs' Home.

HINTS ON WASHING.
Combining the Cleansing Process with the
Preservation of tho Goods Washed.

Combining the Cleansing Process with t,e
Preservation of tho Goods Washed.
Washing Is SO common a thing that
one might readily suppose every house
wife familiar with the mysteries of it.
And so they frequently are, so far, at
least, as enables them TO make things
look clean, but how few can combine
this cleansing process with the prcserva-
tiou of the articles which are washed.
Almost invariably the same system is
used in washing articles Of every Do
scription. ] have been told by gen.
lleman who has had much experience in
hiring help for the laundry in hotels,
that it is exceedingly difficult TO get
good laundresses even there. where there
is not so great variety of washing to
be done us in private families. In wash
ing plain. white clothes a few general
rules will suffice. First, never put your
clothes to soak tho night before wash
day, unless you use warm water and
soap them well. 1t is not necessary to
soak them at all. For washing, prepare
tub Of warm water with little soda,
which is not at all injurious to the
clothes il used In reasonably small guam
titiea. If there are spots on any article,
wet them first in cold water, then take
each article separately and put it
into the warm water, soaping
well all tho parts that are much
soiled. When your tub is well filled
push the clothes back and add hot wa
ter, but be careful not to put it on the
clothes, or you will be likely to. scald
the dirt into them. Wash them twice
before boiling, and rinse thoroughly
after. The washerwoman of Belgium
and Holland, so proverbially effective
in their work, use borax instead of soda;
it saves soap, softens tho hardest water,
and does not in the least injure the
texture of the linen. Colored muslihs
or lawns must be washed one by one
In cold water. II they are very dirty,
above all, be careful not to use the
smallest particle Of soda. The best
soap for articles of this material is the
common yellow. A small piece Of alum
should be boiled in the water in which
! the lather is made. The soap should
not be allowed to remain any time in
the linen, but the article; washed
should be rinsed Immediately after
washing, and hung out to,dry. Leave
all the articles beside the tub, washing
each separately. They must be ironed
as soon as they dry, and not allowed to
remain damp over night nor sprinkled.
Do not iron with hot irons Pink and
green tints may withstand the washing,
but will be likely to change color as
soon as hot iron is put on them. -

that Vt was an outrage to deprive
women of the suffrage who are not
guilty Of polygamy; in other words, to

should say that if you extend the right
OF suffrage to the Gentle and non-

right OF suffrage. it would be promotive
of the destruction of polygamy as an
institution
