are exacting, but duties which love can
tighten and exalt The new position is
more or less trying one, but infinitely bet
ter than spending the first years of married
life in boarding houses. When young
woman becomes engaged, it seems proper
for her to consider that she has chosen a
profession for life, and that she begin at
once to fit herself by practice and observa-
ton to fill it with credit to herself and sat
isfaction to others. The object of this little
peep into the new kitchen is to show that
in places remote from city improvement
much can be done in the arrangement of d
house to tighten the labor that comes every
day. If it serves to encourage young
couples to strive to secure home Of their
own, the article will have done double duty.

the sides to the end of the basque like skirt.
The sleeves are full, pulled slightly on the
shoulders, and are sewed into long, tight
fitting cuffs at the elbows. Many Of the
basque skirts are slashed nearly to the
waist, and narrow gimp or cord carried
around.
The furore for lace does not seem to di-
minish, although merchants in the large
cities are offering lace founcing at very
low figures.
In previous s'chat'' we spoke of rough,
hairy goods being very popular. The name

women seem willing to wear this fabric
even at the risk of being classed with the
immortal '.Dogberry."

A shocking case Of cruelty il reported
from Warsaw, Poland. A ten-year-Old lad

ski, was horror stricken at the effect the
blows had produced. He anSrily threw
the whip away and said the police mizht
close his cafe and ruin him if they chose,
but nothing should persuade him to finish
the aogging.
The police sent dispatch to the COVER

relating all that had occurred. General
Gourko, hero of the Plevna pass. at once
telegraphed back that the fogrng was ro

give the unfortunate boy the remaining
eighteen blows. Insensible, covered with
blood, his flesh torn from bis back, and in
a state of violent commissions, this young
boy was brought back to his widowed
mother. The unhappy woman had all this
time been kept in ignorance as TO the fate
of her son.

HOUSEHOLD.

No one realizes more thoroughly than an
old housekeeper the trials and difficulties
besetting the path trodden in the discharge
of household duties, and yet along the path
the roses bloom and will breathe fragrance
for those who are not too much absorbed in
what some are pleased to term the drudg-
cries. 1t has lately been my pleasure to
note the busy preparations of newly mar
ried couple for home making. The twain
were like two birds. merry and glad, each
ready to assist the other. 1t was a simple
little house, neatly furnished, and the re-
suit of patient waiting and of the exercise
of an extended economy. AS lovers they
had bided their time, and were now re-
warded by going into their own little home.
The young wife, with more forethought
than usual, had given her thoughts to the
duties before her, and together they had
planned the house SO as to have it conven-
lent, comfortable and pretty. The kitchen
and dining room seemed perfect in their ar
rangement-the walls were hard-fnish and
tinted, the woodwork natural finish,
and the floor of the kitchen oiled.

was gasoline stove of improved pattern,
and convenient to it was the sink. A pump
from a cistern in the yard brought the
water. and arrangements were made in the
sink for washing and draining the dishes,
one end being finished as a table where
they could be set. The space underneath
was utilized on one side as pot closet, and
under the table part were three drawers to
serve any desired purpose. Scarce step
away was large pantry fitted up with
shelves, drawers and bins, and a sliding
shutter that closed an opening into the din
ing-room; this saved steps, as the dishes
could be handed back and forth or left upon
tho inner shelf. The dining room, a long
room, had one end taken up by bow-win-
dow; there was a corner chimney and
pretty wood mantel: nowhere was there
any paint to wash, but smooth hard sur
face that was easily cleaned. The little
tableware and small storesthft were needed
for the new home were neatly arranged,
and as I watched the rosy-cheeked bride
directing the sprinkling Of an anti-moth
mixture by the man laying down the car
pets 1 felt that the new wife
was fitting herself for duties that

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.


To remove grass stains from children's

Damp salt will remove the diScoloration
of cups and saucers caused by tea and care

To clean willow furniture use salt and
water. Apply with nail brush and scrub
thoroughly.
Salt as a tooth powder is better than
almost anything else that can be bought.
1t keeps the teeth brilliantly white, the
gums hard and rosy.
Hot breads, cakes, ETC., should never be
covered with a cloth. 1t matters not how
scrupulously clean the cloth may be, it i'm
parts an undesirable flavor to them.
Cream which is slightly sour may be
sweetened and rendered fit for use in tea
and coffee by adding little soda. 1t is
even possible to boil the cream thus treated
without fear of its curdiing.
Finger marks may be removed from fur
niture by rubbing with a soft flannel
slightly moistened with kerosene oil. Oiled
furniture may be cleaned to look quite
fresh and new in this manner.
For severe hemorrhage from the nose try
holding the arms of the patient up over the
head for five minutes at time. A small
piece of ice wrapped in muslin and laid di-
rectly over the top of the nose will usually
give relief.
Small bits of bread left from meals may
be dried in slow oven, and when crisp
rolled fine and set away in covered pail.
They are excellent for breading chops, cut

Meat is not so sweet that is baked in
