The sensibiIities of children.

People as rule very much underrate
the keen sensibilities of the little ones.
Children really hear much more than they
appear to, their seeming Inconsistencies
while at play being very misleading.
Moreover. they often dwell upon any con.
versation they may have overheard, and
magnify petty annoyances into real trouble.

arities, the agony of mind | endured be

Kitchen Knives.

Not one person in thousand under
stands how to select good steel kitchen
knife. 1t is false economy to provide a
kitchenmaid with cheap, inferior tools.
She will appreciate your consideration il
she is provided with suitable tools to do
her work with, and will equally appreciate
your niggardliness or ignorance If she is
provided with iron bread knives and POI
tato knives that act as saws. The differ
ence in cost between good tools of this
kind and inferior ones is not very great.
The method of testing them is simple. A
good steel knife is elastic and bends readily
and easily when the point is pressed on the
table.
A good bread knife will cost about seven
ty-five cents and upward, French knives
SIPS and upward. 1t is always wise to buy
these knives of an experienced cutler, who
Is thoroughly trustworthy. The knives of
the most distinguished makers Of kitchen
cutlery have been initiated even so far as
the name; SO unless you are Judge Of 9
good knife yourself, it is better to depend
on a Trustworthy dealer. 1t is hardly neces.
sary to add that such valuable knive:
should be kept away from the fire or theil
temper will be lost, and they will be of nj
more value than an iron knife. This should
be explained to the servant, and every
kitchen should be provided with at least
two cheap iron knives to use around tn,
stove
A scraping knife good enough for the pur
pose will cost about twenty cents, and is
convenient article to use about the stove
1t is a short knife, with broad, fan SHAPED

Tho wife of Stanley.

Mrs Stanley is an artist, is delighted
with the grand and varied scenery which
the colony affords, and colonial society is
delighted with her fascinating powers of
conversation When in Christ Church
Mrs. Stanley was prevailed upon to sub
nit to the ordeal of being interviewed. AS
many people are aware, Mrs. Stanley is
descendant of Oliver Cromwell.
The protector had daughter, Dorothy
Lady Rice, and there has always been
Dorothy in the family. Mrs. Tenant is
the seventh and Mrs. Stanley is the eighth
of that name. Some time ago skull, sup
posed to be that of Oliver Cromwell, was
found, and it was brought to Mrs. Ten
nant, who, having no place in which to
keep such relic, was obliged to decline it,
whereupon it was placed with other Crom-
wellian relics in the old hall known as the
Chcquers.
In her travels through Australia and
New Zealand Mrs. Stanley found there
were no street arabs for her to exercise her
pencil upon. no" she said, 81 have not

she is collecting specimens of such plants
and seeds as may be likely to grow in the

Cruelty Rewarded.

"The reward of well doing is undoubted.
ly in itself" said discouraged little lady.
There certainly seems to be no outward
and visible compensation" The words
were spoken in moment of petulance, for
she had tried to do her best, and the result
had proved sadly tiscomhting. For many
years she had lived in small house In the
city, and now, after much persuasion, her
landlord had consented to brighten it with
new paint and paper.
"But can't take tho trouble to select
the paper" said he. "If you will do it for
me I'll settle the bills. But first, of course,
I'll give you an estimate of what can af
ford to pay"
The lady was only too glad to do her
part; and more than that, she was of
course delighted to have the paper just to
her liking. So she trudged about the city
trying her best to serve both beauty and
economy.

leather she succeeded in bringing about
some really lovely combinations of color.
Then it occurred to her that in the case of
her more pretentious rooms she might buy
better paper il she would undertake to
put it on herself and thus save the expense
of workmen.
AT the end of month her thought and
labor had their reward and she was salts
fed.
Then 1t happened that the landlord drop.

"Well, WELL" he calculated, after an in

Baron nirsch's Fortune.

Baron ITirsch, the well known Jewish
philanthropist, is said TO be worth $780,.
100000. He made his wealth chiefly out OF
contracts for building Turkish and Tran.
sylvania railroads The Rothschilds were
his financial hackers when he assumed the
contracts, but they got the idea that the
railroads would not succeed and therefore
withdrew their support. He then secured
assistance from big banking firms oil
Frankfort, which he was able to influence
through his marriage, and thus obtained
funds enough to carry on the great under
taking
European flnaneiers have been surprised
by the enormous success OF these railroads.
They paid from the day they were opened,
and they made one of the greatest fortunes
in Europe for the bold contractor who
pinned his faith to them when others
thought him foolhardy. Everything he
has since touched has turned to gold. He
is a large holder of landed estates and
French rentes. 1t is said his benefactions
for several years past have amounted to
$l,000,000 annually. RAILROAD Review.

HoneIy Ambrosia.

The good honsekeeper, who looks on the
outer world rs Il pitfall and on home as the
only safe place, relies largely on the deli
cacies of the table to bring people home
and to keep them there afterward. And
so, also, does many another woman who
has no such poor opinion of the outer
world In accordance with this precau-
tionary wisdom she feels it necessary not
only to have sweet sauces and honeyed dain-
ties for everyday use, but to establish a
sort of sinking fund in the matter of sup
plies, that she may be always ready if any
special draft is made upon her capacity

Importance of Regular Nursing.
When the milk has come to the breasts
all artificial nourishment must cease and
the child be put to the breast regularly. It
is now that SO many mistakes are made,
that so many bad habits are formed; now
that the health of the child frequently be-
gins to suffer and arrangements of the
stomach are so often met with. There are
many mothers who, by their irregular
habits in Sucking their children, overload
the stomach, and when the child cries, as
1t frequently will do when the stomach is
in this state, they give it the breast under
the impression that it will cure everything
Let me say to you, when the first few
days of the infants life are over, regular
ity in feeding must be observed, otherwise
the health Of both parent and child will
suffer alike. The frequency with which
the child should be put to the breast dur
ing the first month should be once every
two hours during the day and once every
three or four hours during the night.
To attend to this from the very first is
absolutely necessary, as a mothers rest
should be as undisturbed as possible.
When this is neglected and her nights are
disturbed, her health will become i'm
paired, the milk will deteriorate in quail
ity, and the child will be badly nourished
and suffer in consequence. New York

Joining states are beginning to appreci-
ate the fact. Six months constitutes a
legal residence, and some county seats
are so remote and secluded that actions
are never heard of until after they are
decided. II is as easy to tie as to unite
the matrimonial knot in Idaho. No H.
cense is required and few questions are
asked.
Such articles as the above are a shame
and disgrace to any civilized commit
nifty aud should be remedied at the
earliest possible opportunity. There
are no doubt cases in which divorce
is the proper relief from ties that are
uncongenial. but they are not in the pro
portion IN which divorces are granted.
II is also entirely too easy for renesades
to secure the marital knot in this state
and good license law should be pass
