i undoubtedly one of the hes qualified per
sons for such position that could be found
in the country. She - = beauiful Christian
lady of broad culture and large heart Her
discipline is strict but always kind. AmOng

preference for the theology al students.
These are near a :, ttlement in life and such

Abbott Seminary. and it is reported that not

Young ministers and a fair inmate of the
seminary,
But there is one thing that prevents the
very frequent contamination of this great
happiness and that is the disturbing fact
that the young ladies with provoking per-

"theologs" and turning sdmlring ewes upon

A good story is told at the expense of one
of the young fellows of the academy who
conceived strong liking for bright eyed

their fair charges. The young fellow

sent his lady love box containing a variety
of dainties, cakes. pies ard an ass, rtment of
confectionery that would have tempted he

was intercepted by the argns-eyed lady
teachers, and good Miss Mckeen seated her
self to write the young man note, al the

favor that the box must be returned. But

tain things must bs done, while others may
be left undone- Clothes must be made
clean, sweet, pure and wholesome without
either injuring the fabric or the hands of the

Some things, however. are important 70
observe. The dirt and all soap must be en-
tirely renlsvei from the interstlces of the

The Gully and easiest way TO do this is by
heating the water in which the clothes are
contained 10 the boiling point. The boiling
water, by constant self agitation. is forced
through the interstices of the fabrics, and
thus cleanses them from dirt, and disease
breeding microbes. as they can be cleansed
in no other xay-snd without in any man
