HOUSE FURNISHING.

There is a great difference between
q house furnished according to the
furniture dealers idea of what is
necessary for use and adornment,
and furnishings wherein q man OF
taste has asserted his own individu-
atty The only possible reason why
the modern householder should be
encountered with suits of furniture,
heavy sidcbOards and the like, is
that the professional furniture dealer
has Il particularly heavy ak to grind.
The fashion for stuffed furniture is
one of the greatest tyrannies OF the
age, and besides the articles being
heavy and cumbrOuS, opportunity
IS given for the substitution of horse
hair stuiflng with wood shavings,
sawduSt and the like, not to mention
the fact that such stufhng is the best
of all breeding grounds for verInln.
A man Of taste will get rid of up
holstery stuffing in his furniture as
far as possible. Rattan furniture is
clean, scrviceable and artistic, and a
settee of this description, whose seat
is covered with flat, movable
cushion, that can III summer he
better article of furniture than the
upholstered sofas of the warcrOOmS
In China and Japan, where bamboo
furniture Is III vogue, some capital
sofas are made that furnish models
OF lightnesS, simplicity and artistic
grace On the subject of curtains,
the man of taste rebels against the
cOrnices and lambrcquins with which
such graceful and useful drapcrieS
are nowadays overloaded The ideal
curtain IS invariably hung upon a
rod with rings, whether for windows,
archway or III place of doors. To
add anything more to such an ar
rangeTnent Is to gid refined gold, a
task no true artist would undertake
In the matter of bookcases, these
useful articles OF furniture are almost
unnecessarily cumbTOuS III cOnStruc-
ton. 1t makes all the difference in
the world whether book is placed
upon an open shelf, where it can be
reached in moment. or whether it
is placed III a cumbrous glass case
like piece of bric-a-brac in Il muse
un, to be seen but not touched The
want of simplicity III bookcases Is
responsible for Il tremendous amount
of ignorance, just as the unwilling
ness of women to go to the trouble
of dressing themselves for the street
has produced more bodily ailments
among the feminine portion of the
community than any other cause.
In matters of furnishing, simplicity
Is the best of taste, and Is nowhere
better expressed than in the furni-
ture and decoration of our homes

WOMEN As EDUCATORS.

1t Is pleasant to see women coming
more and more to the front IN educa-
tional affairs, as teachers, as school
committee, as supervisors of schools,
and as originatOrS of methods and
advisers in the execution of those
methods. 1t IS strange that this has
not come about earlier; for 1t would
seem as if nature herself had intimat-
ed an opinion in this regard, since ii
IS the mother to whom the first
formative processes of the child s
mind are intrusted, and whoever
gives the subject any thought will
confess that these first processes are
the most important of all, that they
are the beginning of development
1t Is In them that the memory sets
about laying in its stores, that the
tendency to good or evil IS received,
that all the growth Is given its bent,
that health of body or of mind is Sc
cured or hopelessly impaired. Bacon
remarked three centuries since that q
gardener takes more pains with the
Young than with the full-grown
plant. and Comenius said that the
great boughs which q tree is to have
sprout from It's stem in the first
years of its growth 1t is evident to
all that the mother, the aunt, the
sister, the people who are always at
home and at hand, and who make it
their business, have the control of all
the first impressions of the child.
That great thinker Frobel declared
that the unfolding and feeding of the
higher life of emotion was the most
difficult part of the rearing of chill
dren, and that from that springs all
that is best IN the race; and that, we
all know, is almost exclusively III the
hands of wOmcn-Of mothers and
grandmOthcrS, auntS and cider SIS
tiers. IT. then, women are the ones
to whom, both by nature and the
customs of society, is given the care
of children III the most crucial period
of their lives, it certainly follows
that they are capable of taking care
Of them III periods less vitality i'm
portant, to say nothing of the fitness
they acquire through their previous
work III training during the earliest
and cOnfcsscdly most important pc
RODS. The thought that says other
wise is hardly to be called thought;
1t Is habit OF prejudice, and ranks
with the barbarian wisdom of the
Turk, who leaves the boy i'll the
harcm during his first seven years, as
years of no account. 1t IS but few
years, comparatively speaking, since
women were allowed to take the
work of the higher education in
hand but, SO far, not only the APP
parent fact that nature designed
them for the work speaks for them,
but the vast measure of success that
has followed them, and the reforms
that have already been instituted
through their means, III the constant
decrease of corporal punishment, III
the gerltleness of method inspired by
them among teachers, and in the
loftincss of aim among students

GENERAL GRANTS COURTsHIP.

One summer day we were going to
a morning wedding and Lieut. Grant
was also invited. He came for us on
horseback, and asked my brother :
permission to drive me, i'll exchange
for his saddle, to which he gladly
consented. The day was beautiful.
the roads were q little heavy from a
previous rain, but the sun shone in
splendor. We had to cross a little
bridge that spanned ravine, and
when we reached it | was surprised
and little concerned To find the guIch
swollen, a most unusual thing, the
water reaching TO the bridge

was very quiet, and the high water
bothered me | asked several times
if he thought the water dangerous to
breast, and told him would 90 back
rather than take any risk He as
sured me IN his brief way that it was
perfectly safe, and in my heart | relied
upon him. Just as we reached the
old bridge l said, Now, if anything
happens, remember. shall cling to
you, no matter what yot say to the
contrary" He simply said, "An
right, " and we were over the pIanks
In less than a minute Then his mood

engaged. and told him it would be
much nicer than getting married, a
sentiment he did not approve. We
were very quiet at the house that
evening, and neither said a word OF
the secret. After supper he went back
to the regiment, and a few DAYS later
General TAYLOR sent him to Camp
Salubrity, in Louisiana. He was
too shy to ask father, so he waited
till ne was stationed, and wrote to
him. Father never answered the
