NEW YORK, April 1.-The fashions
have brought about so many 'sreyivals''
that one is little surprised atseeing things
suggestive of the early days of the CEN
tury-" Mangles,n for instance. How
ever these are vastly improved and far
less clumsy than those our grandmothers
knew. In place of heavy cumbersome
machinery they now show rollers not un-
like those of patent wringer, only
that they are both longer and
of greater circumference, and are
manipulated by means of a
simple crank. Those made attachable
to an ordinary table can be bought for as
little as SO, but the dealers claim the bet
ter sort sold at $3.50 to be superior by
far; while the still more costly ones,
which average about $22 each, include a
stone stationary stand and are the best of
all. Whether or not they do the work
claimed for them / do not know from
any personal experience, but they are an
apparently most desirable addition to
the family, and the rollers appear
heavy enough to iron all ssfiat stuff, ;, as
the laundries call the table and bed linen

THE BACKWARD CHILD.
A Word with Certain Mothers.

There is many a mother who feels dis
turbed and anxious because her child
either exhibits small interest in school, or
else is unable to shine among the other
children there, or perhaps even to keep
pace with them. She is haunted by
horrid spectre OF dunceship and back
wardness, and of her darling outstripped
and left behind in all the other struggles
of life as we'll.
But do not let her be too soon discour-
aged. If her child has no aptitude tor
learning exactly what the others are
learning, perhaps there is an aptitude
for something else quite different and
apart, and OF just as much value. Let
her scrutinize and discover and help the
child along accordingly in the ways
where nature directs.
Our system of graded schools is indeed
lifting all children to broad lakeland OF
general information, but however excel
lent its mental discipline, it allows no
space for individual growth in individual
ways. Every child is being run in the
same mould; there is no place for idiocyn
Grassy or for development upon original
lines; and there is an ever present danger
of chrystaliZation, of becoming fixed at
given point, or ceasing all development.
If her child has rooted dislike for
certain thing, or a positive inability in
the direction of another, the mother
would be wiser to make an effort to have
these studies set aside and to let him give
himself to those which he does like, and
where, if he cannot possibly distinguish
himself, he can at any rate expand what
power he has. Surely if his strength and
time are dlssipated on those studies con-
corning which he is hopeless, there is no
strength or time left for those where he
might do much.
It is probable that the great men of the
past developed themselves as their tastes
and inclinations led; they did not learn
all they learned because some one else had
learned it, even if certain branches were
a foregone conclusion; and that which
they did learn they learned because they
felt the impulse and the need.
1t is not the man who is just like every
other man who helps the world along the
most, but the man whose different train
ing and growth makes him individual
and gives him coign OF vantage that he
would miss if he went slipping along just
like everyone else.
Give the backward boy'' his chance
then at that which suits him best, and be
sure no harm can happen.

The study of Home Life.

To say that knowledge of domestic
science comes by intuition is as absurd as
to say that knowledge of mathematics
does not require study. One meets, it IS
true, an occasional woman with genius
for making a pleasant and attractive
home, but the chemistry of foods, sani-
tary science, physiology and the number
less details OF sound knowledge for the
accurate feeding and development of
family and the making of surroundings
in which bodies, brains and morals may
be tremendously developed must be
learned. Such knowledge does not come
intuitively or haphazard and we.shaH go
on making mistakes until we recognize
and admit this fact.-Neic York World.

With the coming of warmer days and
the necessity for keeping the fire ready to
light at eventide. decorative coal hods
that can be filed and left standing on the
hearth are boons to the busy housekeeper
and her maid. Really handsome ones
show designs IN hammered brass that
make them attractive quite apart from
their evident usefulness. They are not
extravagant, costing only from nine to
ten dollars each, especially since they are
so devised that they serve as receptacles
for the ordinary iron bod, in place of be-
ing themselves carried, a fact which
recommends them to all careful minds,
for the repeated journeys to the
coal bin are ruinous to all
fine hods, and the battering they are GER
tain to get deters many an economical
housewife from the purchase OF an other
wise desirable object.
