Homemade Baskets.

There is a way to make good baskets at
home and pretty and cheap, too, out of
corn husks-thick outer husks for strong
baskets, and for lighter and finer ones the
white inner parts These must be wrapped
for an hour or so in a damp towel, and then
cut into strips Of equal width. Make an
ordinary braid with six or more strips,
which may be doubled, or even trebled, for
greater strength.
Thread a needle with heavy waxed linen
thread, and having dampened the braid
form it into an oval five or six inches long
and three wide, for the bottom of the bas-
ket, and sew the adjoining edges of the
braid together, as in IA straw hat, but don't
overlap them. Go on cOiling and stitching
for the sides of the basket, widening the
opening until the basket is deep enough
The handles are made of a heavy, three
stranded braid, which is sewed all around
the top Of the basket, just inside, and
looped at the middle of each side.
For ornament wind the handles with
gay colored ribbon or braid, put boz
plating of the same around the top anG
work a bunch of flowers on one side il
bright worsteds, with long stitches The
opposite side may have letter or a name.

Cold and moisture combined have a tor
porising effect upon the bodily organs, and
the digestive aud secretive processes are
apt to be more tardily performed in winter
than in the fall The same is true, also, OF
the excretory functions. The bowels are
often sluggish, and the pores of the skin
throw off but little waste matter at this
season. The system, therefore. requires
opening up little. and purifying and reg
ulating, and the safest, surest and most

used for these purposes is Hostetter's
