Household Hints.

DIsINFECTANTs are useful posses
sions in all households. Even the most
sanitary plumbing may need the occa-
sional publication of disinfectants.
CURE FOR CoRNs.-Arnica oil we'll
rubbed in night and morning for few
days is an unfailing cure. OF course,
the cause (pressure) must be removed.
A GERMAN prescription for prevent
ing cold-sores and boils from coming to
head is 70 paint them five or ten times
daily with equal parts of boracic acid
and water.
SPONGE carpets occasionally with hot
water in which either common salt or
powdered alum has been dissolved.
This not only brightens the carpet but
prevents moths.
AFTER buttering the tins for layer
cake, give them a good sprinkling of
flour. This will prevent the cake from
sticking to the tins, and a little less
flour will be required in the making of
the cake.
CHLORIDE of lime is an infallible pre-
ventive for rats, as they flee from its
odor as from pestilence. 1t should
be thrown down their holes and spread
about wherever they are likely to come,
and should be renewed once a fortnight.
WHEN decanters and carafes become
so discolored inside that shot or fine
Goals will not cleanse them, fill the
bottle with finely-chopped potato skins.
Cork tightly, and let the bottle stand
for three days, when the skins will fer
ment. Turn out and rinse. The bottle
will be as bright and clean as when
new.
BREAD-MAKING. - First, all that
bother of potato yeast is needless
work. In hollow of your flour put
compressed yeast-cake and a little
milk. With your wooden spoon break
and mix; add more milk and make a
thin batter, which beat ten minutes.
Early in the morning add more flour
and beat ten minutes. 1t should be
ready to mold soon after breakfast.
Now don't double up your fists once,
but stir it thick, and open your hands
flat, and roll it without using any
strength until smooth. The longer you
roll the nicer it will be.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1891-04-01

1t saves a great deal of time to have
all the tools and materials for sewing at
hand before beginning. Keep an
abundance of needles in different
lengths and sizes and threads of all
kinds. 1t pays to buy the cheap, fine
basting-cotton that comes in spools of
thousand yards each for five cents.
This basting-cotton is not only cheaper,
but it is fine and not as tightly woven, ,
and therefore better adapted to its pur-
pose than thread that is better made
and costs five cents spool of two hun
dred yards. 1t is not fit for any other
purpose, however. Never use any
colored thread for basting, as it often
leaves stain. A long, slender needle
is the best for basting. No person can
learn to fit well until she learns to haste
well, using moderately short, even
stitches. In removing basting-threads,
always clip the thread, as pulling it
stretches garment out of shape and
wrinkles it, and on velvet frequently
leaves mark. The finishing of dress
ia the most important part. Nothing is
more unsatisfactory than a dress only
half put together. There are Innings in
tA"i NV Ihoo oIiOlSii oO IlIblC llldJ W6ll-
fitted dress stays in place and does not
get out of shape with wear. The best
hooks for gowns and wraps are made
with the tip bent in slightly, so that
they do not become unfastened. The
patent hooks and eyes are somewhat
uncomfortable to use and clumsy. In
place of them some of the best dress
makers use ordinary black hooks and
eyes, of small size, alternating them,
putting on first hook and then an eve
on either side, and thus obviating the
tendency to unlock. 1t is said to be a
good plan to soak whalebones a few
moments in warm water, in order to
make them flexible and conform to the
figure when put in the castings. Moth
ing that has ever been introduced to
take the place of whalebones is a per-
feet success. Be careful to use thin,
flexible whalebone. Remember, if you
are short woman that you must not
insist on having your waist made as
long as if you were taller. Nothing is
more awkward than long waist on a
short woman. 1t is easy to remedy
such defect in your figure by raising
the waist-line in the dress.-New York
Tribune.

Men Of Cultivated Taste.

There are about 200 tea-tasters in
this city, a well-paid class of men, most
of whom in the course of nature will
die of kidney disease superinduced by
their unwholesome occupation. The
habits of these men are exceedingly
curious. Some of them refuse to ply
their trade save in the morning, ON the
ground that the sense of taste can not
be trusted after it has been bewildered
by hours of work. Most of them avoid
the use of tobacco and of highly sea-
soned food. Their accuracy of taste is
astonishing. A tea-taster will grade
and price dozen qualities of tea all
from the same cargo. All this ac-
curacy seems unnecessary, however, for
grocers unhesitatingly sell the same tea
to different persons at very different
prices, so ignorant are most persons of
quality in teas.-Nelo York San.

How Do You Treat Your Hired Girl ?

The Hon. Carroll d. Wright makes
it known in his statistics that the United
States contains million hired girls; in
view OF this fact and of the hired girls
dependence for home happiness upon
the Christian courtesy of the family in
which she lives, we wish to ask the fol-
lowing questions of those who employ
hired girl: How many of you say good
morning and goodnight to her? How
many of you greet her cordially on her
return from an absence? How many
OF you speak of her in homelke, fam
lily way to a guest when she enters the
room, saying, "This is our Eda, who
does SO much to make our home a pleas
ant place." or something of the sort?
How many take special pains to make
the work lighter on Sunday, by simplify
ing the meals aud arranging for her to
go to- those meetings of her church
which are about the only variety she
has. Who can account for the fact that
good Christian people will pass hired
girl just as if she was block of wood
or an autOmaton, not giving her even so
much of a greeting as they would a
household dog or cat? Why should the
hired girl be called the servant? To be
sure, one who serves does that which is
altogether honorable, but the term has
fallen into sort of synonym for servi-
tgde; would it not be better, therefore.
70 use the expression, our helper7 A
good, strong Saxon word that has up
lift in 1t and no sense of degradation.
How many of them are asked to 90 to
family prayers, and with all their traits
and Inconsistencies are remembered in
the prayer that is duly offered? How
many are fitted out with Bibles, if they
have none, and are taught to read our
language, if of foreign birth? This
does not relate to Catholics, although
in some cases that wot of the Douay
Bible is read in family at prayers, she
taking her turn with the rest of the
family. How many look carefully after
the hired girls room-to see that she
has nice springs in her bed, soft mat
.ress, a rocking chair and every COM
fort that is found in the other rooms of
the home? How many speak to her
kindly about an extra good baking of
bread or nice dish in which she may
feel natural pride2 We are all glad
OF recognition, and yet we often forget

My Mother.

Some one l love comes back to me
With every gentle face see;-
Beneath each wave of soft gray hair
seem to SEQ my mother there.
With every kindly glance and word
1t seems as If must have heard
Her speak, and felt her tender gaze
With all the love of olden days.
And am moved to take her hand
And tell her now understand
How tired she grew beneath the strain
or feeling every loved ones pain;
No further burdens could she bear;
The promise Of that land more fair
Alone could tempt her from her child.
And now If 1 could keep her here,
No sacrifice could be too dear,
No tempered winds for her too mild
Then would smooth and kiss her face
And by her side take my old place
And sob my years and cares away.
The tears have so long repressed
Would lose their ache upon her breast;
think IL l could feel her touch
Once more, it would not matter much
How sunny or how dark the day
love each mother that see
That brings my own so near to me;
For though never more may frame
Upon my lips that hallowed name
To any who will draw me near
And answer me with warm caress,-
AS long as there are mothers here,
No child can be quite motherless.

l was driving along a highway in
Woods county, Ohio, with man who
was selling farming machines to farm
ers, and about two O'Clock in the after
noon we came along to district school
house. The schoolma'am and about
twenty scholars stood under an elm tree
about forty feet high, near the house,
and in the topmOst branches of the tree
was boy about fourteen years old.
" Anything wrong here2" asked my
friend, as we halted before the door.
Budd Hawkins says he won't, and the
teacher says he mustl'' called little
girl. The teacher herself then came
forward. She was a plain-looking girl
of about twenty, with a mouth showing
great firmness, and with some embar-
rassment she explained: "It's the ter
ror OF the school. He refused to mind,
and / started to whip him. He broke
away and ran out and climbed the tree.
Ive been up about twenty feet, but
had to give it up and come down.
" Yer can't conquer mel" shouted the
boy. "Budd, | order you to come

for an axe, and here it comes" she

down with the tree, if not before" We
offered to use the axe, but she declined
the offer with thanks, and stepping to
the tree, she swung the implement
around and buried the blade in the
wood. You dasn'tln shouted Budd
from the top. "I'll do it or resign!"
she answered, as she struck several
blows. AT the erd of three minutes
the tree began to totter and Budd to
yell in alarm, and few seconds later it
fell with a crash. / thought the boy
was badly hurt, if not killed, and was
relieved as the schooima'am sprang for
ward, yanked him out of the branches,
and while applying a CAD with one
hand she pulled him into the school
house with the other, saying: "Now,
Budd Hawkins, you've got to do some
of the awfulest begging ever heard of
in the state of Ohio, or l won't leave
enough hide on you for flea to bite! 7"
He was hard at it when we drove on.-

DOggie Understood French.

A tall, well-built young man lounged
into the Colonnade barber shop day
or two ago, closely followed by sleek.
intelligent Italian greyhound. The
man took his place in chair and the
dog quietly reclined on the floor near
by. The barber stopped to pat the
graceful creature and jocularly said,
" Th' tap av tn mahrnin to yez, Rover"
The dog cooked his ears and looked in
quiringly at his master. The latter OBJ
served: "Ze doggie do not speak
Angles. He's Partisan" Then he
looked at his pet and continued " Bon
jour, Baptiste." The greyhound very
enthusiastically whacked his tail upon
the floor and replied to his masters
salutation by low, throat-like gurgle
of satisfaction. "Can he do any
thricks?" asked the barber, pausing in
his work. L" Certainly" replied the
young Frenchman, still speaking in
broken English g Tell him to roll over
The barber did so, but the dog merely
remained quiet, and worried, anxious
expression spread over his face. Then
his master repeated the command, in
French, and the graceful pet, with
short bark of pleasure, at once rolled
over and over. The barber told him
to sit up, to charge, to shake hands,
etc., but doggie could not understand
until his owner repeated the suggestion
in his native tongue. AS both left the
shop the barber shook his head doubt
fully. "Next," he called out, and then
added in an undertone, Its mesilf as
