Girls for Doing Housework.

The people of New England not many
years ago were ''wiser in their generation
They designated the female who was en-
ployed to do homework as the 'help," though
she discharged the same duties as the "hired
girl" in a western village or the domestic
servant in any Of our large cities. Help"
sounds much better than "hired girl" or any
kind Of Servant" 1t implies an associate
and suggests some sort Of equality. The in
ference is that helper is somewhat inferior
to the person she assists, but a reasonable
explanation Of this is afforded by the cir
cumstance of youth and ine1perience, condi-
tions that are very flattering to young
woman. The word ''help" or helper" does
not suggest positive inferiority, but init
mates that the person to whom the term il
applied is fairly capable, trustworthy and is
in the way of advancement. A bad word
or phrase often does good deal Of mischief.
When this is the case it is best to allow it to
become obsolete Many a good woman has
lost her "help" by referring to her as her
servant. Most persons are servants one way
or another, but no one likes to be called so.
The question of how to obtain and keep
reliable, efficient and capable girls for doing
housework, like the poor, is always with us.
The demand for such girls constantly in
creases The supply in city or country is
never equal to the demand. In turn. Amer
lean, English, Irish, German and Scandi-
navian girls have shown Discrimination to
engage in domestic service partly on &C
count of the unfortunate name. No intelli-
gence Office is needed for supplying sales
ladies'" dress makers, millipers, stenogra-
pliers or typewritera 1t is seldom neces-
sary to advertise for any Of them. They do
their own advertising and make personal APP
plication for positions Times

Food for an Infant.

In regard to the quantity Of food suitable
for an infant, there are a great many very
erroneous notions which should be corrected.
The stomach of a child Under months old
will hold, in its natural condition, only about
small wineglassful. OF course by stretch
ing-for it is very elastic-it Gun be made to
hold several times that quantity, but, when
so distended, it presses upon the other organs,
pushes them out of place and causes pain.
When this fact is known, the folly of allow
ing the child to feed from bottle containing
half pint or more of food will at once ap-
pear evident When the stomach IS distended
vomiting is often the measure of relief. In
diStention. when the superfuous food is not
thrown off, the baby is fretful and cries with
pain. 1t is overlooking the stomach which
frequently excites collie. Mothers seldom
recognize the fact, however, and, as a rule,
interpreting the little ones cries as an evil
dsnce Of hunger, go on giving it more food
and making matters worse. Permanent dis
tention OF the stomach is not infrequently the
consequence of overlooking, the organ, which
is elastic, losing its power of contracting to
its original size. When such a condition eI-
lists, the sufferer wastes away even when the
proper food is given in correct quantity

Influence of a Good Woman.

And still we respect and admire gentle
man. and we take off our hats and worship a
gentleuoman. Still we like to kiss the hand
low soft voice and refined thoughts Of an
educated and delicate woman Isn't the
moonlight brighter, the night air purer, the
world better worth living in when we leave
the presence of good woman than when the
swinging door of a saloon closes behind us
and a burst of fetid atmosphere follows US
into the street, No man ever yet reformed
unless under some such influence, and don't
believe any man ever felt such influences
a momentary resolution to cut his low &C.
quaintanoes and habits. l am not saying
that he did it.
There's nothing 50 weak in the world as
mans resolution to reform But you can
always tell when a man has been spending
an evening with a charming, refined woman.
You sometimes, you know, meet man
coming down the street about II o'clock. He
is walking with firm tread, his head up in
the air. He may be humming something;
he is proud of himself he has dignity
about him that you can see in the dark He
mas been there and he can't help showing it.
You are very common, poor object to him
He dsspises you; for hasn't he been virtuousa
Yes It does him good, and years after the
odor that came from her dainty pocket hand
kerchief may strike him in far different soci-
ETY. and recall the resolution he made under
the delightful influence, forgotten next day.

Hygiene for the Baby.

The better hygiene you can observe for the
first eighteen months of baby's life, tie bet
ter chance the child has of living A slight
ailmsnt, such as cold, little irritation of
the bowels from solid food may be the match
to gunpowder, and another life is chilled in
the budding, another home is made sorrow-
full that else would have been happy. 1t is a
fallacious idea that young child needs any
thing but milk, if that agrees, until the teeth
are present in numbers sufficient for masti-
eating food. Even soft foods often work
mischief. Starchy foods need ptyaline for
their digestion; this is a chemical ingredient
of the saliva, but infants have very little
saliva and less ptyaline, therefore the GUS
tom of giving potatoes, crackers and so on,
during the early months is pernicious.
While it may not harm nine out of ten, the
tenth one may die.-Amelia A. Whitefeld in

Care of the Nails.

The finger nails of Americans are likely to
be dry and to break easily. Vaseline rubbed
on the nails after washing the hands will do
a world of good to dry nails Manicures
first battle the hand long time in hot water,
then with scissors and knives clean and cut
the nails, remove the superhuous skin about
the onyx, then polish the nails with buckskin
and fine powder, washing the hand again in
hot water with soap. After drying the
nails are polished with fine brush and are
finally rubbed with a rosy ungueut to give
them a she'll pink--Good Housekeeping.

Treatment for Freckles.

No cosmetic, however well advertised, re-
moves freckles. 1t may temporarily hide
them, but it will be at the expense of the tex
ture of the skin. A lotion of Jamaica rum
and lemon juice is frequently effective, but
strawberry juice applied at bedtime is decid-
edly the best both for freckles and those an
noying moth or liver patches. Strain the
berries through a thin cloth and apply two
or three times before going to bed. This is
excellent for sunburn or redness Of the skin,
as well as for discoloration.-Lucy C. Lille

from head to foot with pienoy OF pure olive
or almond oil These are chosen as being
nearly identical with the composition of
human fat and quickly assimilated. When
rubbed with oil the person should sit over a
hot air register or in a sun lighted window
until the oil is absorbed. The skin will take
in this way ten times the nutriment the
stomach is able 10 manage, and the result,
in very emaciated bodies, is marked soft
ness, translucency, and gain in flesh The
rays Of the sun. falling directly on the skin,
have the most potent effect, increasing its
activity for the exchange Of worn out parti-
Giles and deposit of new ones.-Shirley Dare's

Car Horses In Cabs.

Sheridan residence during the generals i'll
ness stood on the curb one morning and dis
coursed learnedly to the reporter about cab
horses ITO make a first class cab horse"
said he, 1.-THE best way is to take broken
down street car horse, the older and tougher
he isths better. Take off his shoes and turn
him out to pasture for a season; then bring

may best be cultivated. Few realize how
strong are the impressions made upon the
heart of childhood by the examples which are

him really truthful. He must be imbued
with the love of positive truth; and that can
be infused only by those who are themselves
inspired by it.-Once Week.
