At Guise. France, there is a great CO.
lucrative household of many years sue
TESS. The system of nurseries and schools
& graded to accommodate the children
from infancy. The bed used in this in
lants' nursery is thus described in a lecture
bV NJ. Godin: I'VE had to search a long
time before we hit on the healthy and IN
Expensive mode Of providing bed for in
lants, in describing which l think that
shall do a true service to families. On the
opening of the nursery we made trial Oh all
that was then recommended as most SUIT
able for forming the cradles. We tired
India rubber sheets with metal tubes,
stretched across the cradles. We tr1ed aD-
sorbent straw and other inventions, which
took us from one inconvenience to another
without solving the problem Of producing
a soft bed, free from damp or unpleasahI
smells. You will understand how impor-
kant the question was for us. Every ono
knows how much care, annoyance ana
embarrassment the cradle of one infant
only will give rise to in family. AT the
nursery it was not one cradle only but
from forty to fifty that must be kept dry
and clean.
"At last we discovered this clew-that
bran furnished an excellent bed for the
babies. and that il would be sufficient to
Law them directly upon the bran. We tried
this plan. But If it is practicable for
mother, who has only her own little one to
attend to, it was not so in an establishment
where at certain hours from fifteen to
twenty children had to be got up almost at
the same time. If the child was laid on
the bran undressed, it was covered when
taken out of bed with tiny spangles OF bran
adhering to all its body, which made 1t look
like a little savage. It's toilet necessitated
q bath, which took half an hours work for
each child. This was not practicable.
Still the bran did truly solve the problem.
It furnished a very soft bed, and it abb
sorbed the moisture by forming little pei
lets, easily removed by the hand, without
leaving any source of unpleasant smell.
ITO remedy the only Inconvenience that
we experienced, it suficed to place between
the infant and the bran little sheet. This
is the form of bed in use in the nursery at
the Familistere now for more than twelve
years, uniformly with the best results.
The pillow is similarly filed with BRAN
Every day there is added n handful of bran,
equal to that which is taken away and
about once a month the bran Of the cradle
is entirely renewed. Large bran is best for
this kind Of bed. 1t should be screened to
get rid of the dust"

Chicago has just erected a monument to
a newspaper reporter who lost his life in
the discharge Of duty. In Minneapolis q
few days ago, at the memorial services OF
the oldest reporter in the northwest, the
great hall was packed and eulogistic ad-
dresses were made by the governor and
other prominent citizens. 1t is gratifying
to observe that as rule the members Of
this profession are advancing in public APP
probation and esteem. The repOrtorial
business on our great dailies has developed
into both a science and fine art. It must
be done by men and women Of education,
ability, Judgment and discretion.
1t demands persons not only of talent
but of character. In addition to work Of
the most laborious nature there is consid'
cradle amount of responsibility. First
class reporting deserves to rank among the
learned professions, and the industrious,
faithful and conscientious reporter is en-
titled to the recognition and respect Of the
community.
He contributes largely to the success OF
every public undertaking; he gives the
people an opportunity to keep well in
formed upon local events; he describes
many good deed it done in the interests of
humany, and he proves a wholesome terror
to those of evil inclinations e is a salts
faction to note that his memory is honor
ed; it is still a greater pleasure to notice
that there is a growing appreciation of the
inestimable value of his daily services

Great is the need for a good electric
motor for homework. 1t is no good to
talk about setting up in our houses neat
little dynamos that a housemaid could
learn how to work in a few hours. The
housemaids never would learn, and we
should soon find the neat little dynamo
standing rusty and dust grimed IN the
area. forgotten of man and maid.
If electricity is to be any good in the
house. it must come in ready in a box
NOTED energy which can be applied, ike
crease, whenever it is wanted. In TINS
shape it may have a hundred uses. The
footman. instead of turning the knife ma
chine. will connect it with the electrical
motor, the cook will use it to turn the
handle of the egg whisk, the coffee roastei
and the coffee grinder, and to turn the
meat. In the laundry it will do our man,
Cling and ironing. In the stable 1t viii
elm the horses, and in the gardeners de
partment pump the water and cut the
lawn. Everything, in fact, that now re
wolves by the exertion of muscular effort
will be arranged to turn by electricity.
When the electricians have given us the
household motor and not till then, shall
we be able to say that man has chained the
thunderbolt and madei it an obedient slave.

1.-THE reward Of well doing is undoubted-
ly in itself, - said a discouraged little lady.
t'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 discomGting. For many
years she had lived in a small house in the
city, and now, after much persuasion, hei
landlord had consented to brighten it with
new paint and paper
"But / can't take the 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 l can af-
ford to pay"
The lady was only too glad to do her
part; and more than that, she was oil
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
She had excellent taste, and by dint OF
hard thought and the wear Of good shoe
leather she succeeded in bringing about
some really lovely combinations Of color.
Then it occurred to her that in the case oil
her more pretentious rooms she might buy
better paper if she would undertake 20
put it on herself and thus save the expense
of Workmen.
At the end of a month her thought and
labor had their reward and she was salts
fed
Then it happened that the landlord drop
ped in to look thiAgs over.
''Well, we'll, he calculated, after an in
spection of the three floors, this does beat
all. You only laid out what ! told you
and you've made it over into new house. =
1--WE think it's pretty" said the lady
modestly, yet with pride,
A sudden thought had struck the land
lord. His face grew very grave.
"Ill tell you what it is, Mrs. NJ"
said he. "This house is improved. It's
three times rs desirable as it was

Some remarkable statistics, interesting
from several points of view, in regard to
the coyotes in California have been com
piled by the comptroller of the state since
an act of the legislature fixing a bounty Of
five dollars on each coyote scalp went into
effect In less than year 10000 coyotes
have been killed and scalped in the state,
and nearly 100000 have been paid to the
hunters. In one county alone, Kern, ST.
O45 has been paid in bounties. Tulare
county got s., $780, and Los Angeles S6,0O5.
No claims were presented from San Fran
cisco, but the neighboring county collected
S045.
The statistics i've surprised naturalis+s
and legislators In the adjoining terri
tories Of Arizona and New Mexico coy
otes are plentiful, but are valueless, and it
is generally understood that the hunters
in the territories are doing a prosperous
business in exporting coyote scalps to Cal
