Cure for a Nervous Headache.

1t has been hard day and the tired lines
in your face show it. The muscles of the
face have lost their firmness, and the lines
about cheeks and eyes and mouth droop
YEARLY. You look ten years older than
you know you are, and you feel sadder
than you know you have a righ. to be.
Worse than all, sharp pain shoots from
the left temple over the forehead and down
the left side Of the face. You know that
means q nervous headache and a night of
agony unless something is done quickly.
Try this: Slip off your bodice and bare
your neck. Twist your hair into loose
knot on the top of your head. Then take a
sponge and basin of hot water-just as
hot as you can bear it. Pass the hot wet
sponge slowly and steadily over the face
and forehead eight or ten minutes keeping
the sponge as hot as il can be borne By
that time your face will look and feel as If
it were parboiled. But don't worry.
Then battle the back of the neck as you
have done the face, carrying the sponge
well up the back of the head.
Keep this up for the same length of time;
then, without looking at yourself in the
glass, because that would be sure to dis
quiet you, dry your face and neck softly
and go and lie down fiat on your back.
Close your eyes and think of just one thing:
how heavy you are on the couch and easily
it supports you. That is really an import
ant part of the cure.
Lie there for half an hour, if you don't
fall asleep, as you probably will. Then get
up and take the deferred look in the glass
The tired look has gone; the muscles have
regained their tone; the wrinkles have dis
appeared. You look like your younger
sister. Best of ell, the darting pain in the
head and the pessimism of the soul have
gone too.

The sleeping room of the children need
not necessarily connect with the day quar-
ters; it may be in another portion of the
house entirely, and it is quite fitting that
it should be near or in connection with the
sleeping rooms of the parents. Many a
wise, careful mother arranges that her
children shall sleep within call during their
early, tender years, that she may hasten to
them at a moments notice, that she may
guide and guard them from The many sub
tie dangers of early life. Yet the sleeping
quarters for children, as well as for
adults, should always be commodi
Gus, well ventilated and in every
way wholesome. Above all, there should
not open from the nursery-either the day
or the night apartments-auy bath room or
other connection with the sewer or with
cesspool or like method OF disposing of

sirable and comparatively indispensable;
but they should be carefully located so

are very convenient many times; but it is a
question whether they should be intro
0uced into any sleeping rooms; and they
certainly should not be, unless the connec-
tions and the work of the plumbers are
such that under no possible circumstances
can there be danger to health. The mo-
mentary convenience is poor recompense
for the death or the serious sickness of a
beloved member of the family.-Good

HOME. FIRESIDE AND KITCHEN.
Homemade Floor Rugs-A Housekeeper's
Tragedy.
A Number of Useful Household Receipts Hints and
Suggestions

A woman of seventy has made for her
dining room floor a charming mat which
shows some of the same soft blending of
colors which we admire SO much in the
genuinely antique rugs. There is in the
old lady's rug no marked pattern or design,
but the mottled effect is so good that one
hardly misses the pattern.
Having worn three-ply carpet, the old
lady cut some of the breadths into bias
strips, about three inches wide. These
strips are box-plaited On double plaits)
through the centre, and the edges are
combed and picked into woolly sort of
roughness. The plaiings are then sewed
down, each being first doubled through
the centre upon piece of sail cloth, or
material which closely resembesit. After
the mat is completed by filling all the
square of cloth with the plaitings the more
sweeping and shaking and general harsh
treatment it sustains, the better.
Very pretty mats for doorN avs, or to
throw down in front of sofa, are made of
strip Of the plain carpet ingram filling.
The edge is turned under, and border of
plain felt of a lighter shade sewed all
around. A fringe of gray Irvine is
crocheted upon each end. If the material
is too thick to pierce with the crochet hook,
a piece of black tape or braid may be sewed
underneath to serve as anchorage for the
fringe heading. The centre of the rug is
decorated with felt flowers, couched down
with linen embroidery thread in suitable
colors. Small flowers powdered over the
surface, or single large one, with small
single flowers at the corners, like the mat
at the head of the article, may be chosen.
A very pretty mat for a position where 1t
will not be subjected to very constant
treading, is made of a strip of light blue
felt, embroidered in cross stitch with very
dark blue yarn. Ii should be lined with
thick blue stuff doubled, and the ends I'm
ished with border in Grecian pattern,
done in cross-stitch on the felt, with dark
blue yarn. Pinked strips Of alternate
light and dark blue felt are overlapped
upon each end OF the mat, to take the place
OF fringe.

a Housekeeper's Tragedy.

One day, as 1 wandered, heard complaining,
And saw poor woman picture of gloom;
She glanced at the mud on her coorsteps Ctwas
And this was the wall as she welded her
broom:
20! life is toll and love is a trouble,
And beauty will fade, and riches will fee;
And pleasures they dwindie, and prices they
double,
There's too much of worriment goes to a bon
net;
There's too much ironing goes to shirt;
There's nothing that pays for the time you
There's nothing that LASTS but trouble and
dirt
"In March it is mud; slush in December;
The midsummer breeZes are loaded with dust;
In fall the leaves litter; in muggy September
The wall paper rots and the candleStckS rust.
There are worms in the cherries and siugs in
the roses,
And ants in the sugar and mice in the pies;
The rubbish of spiders no mortal supposes,
And ravaging reaches and damaging flies.
