The Illus bands Home Duty.

According to our ideas on such subjects 1t is just as much the husbands business " to make home the brightest and most all turing haven of rest and peace upon all the earth" as it is the wlfe's. The idea that a mother, who has been "worked and wor- ried to death" all day by the cares and annoyances of a household, perhaps with a sick child to nurse, and in feeble health at that, should have to go beyond her powers of endurance in order to make home at tractive" to some great lubber of a hus- band, with the muscles of an OK, the health of whale, and the digestion of an ostrich, is utterly absurd and inhuman. Let him go to work and make "home at tractive" to her. Or, not to run to ex- tremes on either side, let the husband join with the wife in mutual efforts to make their home pleasant for the whole family.

A Hint to Smokers.

It is remarkable that people smoke SC much tobacco in it's various forms that is mpregnated with deadly nicotine when by simple method which would not detract one whit from its good quality, but would remove all that is objectionable, the tobacco could be made free of this poison.
 Merely soak the tobacco day in a shallow trough and then lay it in the sun, if feasible; if not, dry by the most convenient means, and the weed is robbed of sll odorif- erous properties and of nicotine. It is then
 so sweet the fumes would not offend the most sensitive lady, because it has no fumes Besides, the vessel in which it is burned does not become 'strong'-a yalu- able thing for man who prefers 6 meer- Bchaum pipe to cigars .c

Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 This is to certify that the Catholics of Waterbury, as elsewhere, are perfectly competent to manage their own spiritual affairs that they neither want nor will they tolerate proselytizing interference: that they are not falling away in thous- ands from their religion, and that the statement that they crave for the visits of outsiders displays mental condition not easily accounted for in this age when men have so many opportunities to be- come enlightened.
