The value of petty savings cannot be
too highly estimated. The conscientious
habit OF saving everything that can bc
turned to any account, fitting the object
however small, into its right place. is a
habit in itself enough to insure thrift.
There are so many things about the
household which are thrown aside which
Ivy careful thought may be turned to use.
Wise providers buy only goods of gcnu-
Inc value which may be used to the last
shred. This is true OF market buying,
Of shopping of everything that may be
purchased. There is good brand OF
flour and d make.shift brand; n cloth
firm and well made Of wool,
and a cloth to take its place, cheap
and fimsy, Of cotton wool. In all these
cases the genuine cloth is tho cheapest in
the end; the good brand flour will give
the best and most nourishing bread
The wsll'made cloth may be washed or
cleansed again and agaih, and be made
over until nothing is left of It.. A great
deal may be saved even in buttons,
Thread and pins aud needles, little min
ltiae Of which we seldom think. Ii is
In the scdulous care that every article
shall be Used, that every bit Of cloth
shall be turned and made over till it has
passed usefulness, that consists the
chance of the average family for an order
" well-fed well-clothcd home Lavish
ness is the worst Of providers. It is
the systematic, steady hand, careful OF
hinutiae, that provides "a home aud table
where genuine comfort and cool cheer
prevail. Simple spending Of money can
not accomplish the same result that care
sant The children Of poor men, brought
up TO habits Of thrift usually enjoy
more actual luxury than the children of a
spendthrift, who varies from feast to
famine, from rags TO velvet with the reg
ularity Of clock pendulum. Extrava-
gdnce should be looked upon as sin, a
trust 20 use honestly the goods God has
given Us, hot considered in the light,
trivial way it is, as something the indi-
vidual alone would suffer from. .--Nee

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
POLISHING HARDWOOD Floors.

TIC make good polishing mixture put
into a bowl throe-quarters Of a pound of
yellow beeswaS, two ounces of powdered
rosin and a half pint of turpentine.
Stand this bowl in good-siEed basin of
hot water and stir the mixture over tho
fire until thoroughly amslgamated. Re-
member that the ingredients are very in.
hammable, and you must be exceedingly
careful or they will take fire; the large
basin of water is to guard against this.
Keep your bowl in the center. Stand
the polish aside To cool, and, IL when
cool il is thicker than cosmolinc, add a
little more turpentino until it reaches
that consistency. Now for the applica-
ton. See that the floor is perfectly free
from dust and dry, then apply small
quantity of the polish with soft piece
of flannel or wooden cloth, rubbing il i'm
well with the grain Of the wood After
the whole floor has been treated thus,
polish we'll by hard rubbing with pol
ish brush. Then, with piece of soft
green baize, give light, final polish. A
floor thus treated will keep in good con-
dition for three or four weeks, providing
the polishing brush is used twice a
week.
Softwood stained floors are best sized
and vanished Yankee Blade.
