TALKS TO MOTHERS.

\ Sensible Little Chat Upon the
Care of Little Folks.
Some mothers, in their Clearly zeal,
attack the scalp Of the little folks that
belong to them with the fine comb as
weapon and dandrutf as the arch enc
my, which they proceed vigorously to
exterminate. If they only knew it, they
are stimulating the accumulation of the
patches that so annoy them, and in
many instances lay the foundation for a
severe case of eczema, which is the di-
rect outcome of the vigorous onslaught.
The comb has but these Offices, and
they are to open up the hair so that the
brush may reach all parts of the scalp.
to part it and to diSentangle snarls. A
properly made comb has long, thick,
wide, perfectly smooth teeth with we'll
rounded ends and set wide apart. To
remove the dandruff a little oil or
grease should be rubbed into the scalp
and the head carefully washed with
warm water and soap. If this treat
ment does not prove successful physi-
clan should be consulted.
Just a word here among ourselves
and on our own conduct. The example
we set is the one the children will fol-

A PITlFUL THING.

That Child Should Have No
Home But in a Boarding House.
MY heart always bleeds for a child
who is brought up in boarding house,"
said motherly woman with little
brood of her own, who understood fully
all that the word 'home" implies. This
remark set us to thinking, and as there
are so many families that board, the
subject appeared to be one that could
most easily be studied, and the real life
of little folks whose home means the
routine of boarding, learned from OBJ
ServatiUn.
After watching half dozen small
men and women the conclusion was ar
rived at that the mOtherly lady's heart
had good reason for all the sympathy
that emanated from that organ. 10 be-
gin with. the child soon ceases to he
other than child in name. Surrounded
by grown people. the feminine portion
of which spends its time in gossip of a
nature that has no tendency to improve
either the morals or the manners OF the
youthful listener, the little son or
daughter soon prefers the talk that goes

A charming costume for fair-haired
little girl is OF frost-blue bengaline. The
skirt is perfectly plain, but trifle full,
to show the lights of the silk. The waist
is pointed slightly back and front, and
has a girdle effect of ribbons to match
the silk. The yoke, collar and cuffs are
of beaver colored velvet edged with
leweled gimp. The sleeves are very

A DAILY TRIAL.

The Woman Whose Every Thought
Is of Her Ailments.
As this is an age in which woman Is
trying to improve herself, l hope my
criticisms on certain type that has
como under my observation In almost
every walk in life, will add to the
abundance of food for thought that has
heretofore been suggested. l wish to
speak of the grumbling, complaining,
Imaginative woman: the woman who
has always got an ache or pain, and who
has not the moral courage to bear such
trifies herself, but will persist in max
ing every one who will give her an au-
dience as miserable as herself: the
woman who will corral you for an hour
or two and compel you to listen to her
family troubles. When will this self
ish, sympathy craving individual
realize that hers is not the only
troubled life? that perhaps the heart
that she expects to respond to her mis-
erv has heavier burden to bear than
her own? How much g love and ad-
mire the woman who has always a kind
word and pleasant smile, even though
her heart is bleeding from wound that
is more deeply centered than mere bod
lily ailment, and she is always the bore's
victim. My dear reader, If you belong
to this class (and have the common
sense to know it, forget yourself, and
look around to see where you can allevi-

Sang Bobbie Burns, and though we
hear the couplet quoted, and, IN fact,
quote it ourselves often and often again,
really doubt whether we would enjoy
the sight at all times and under all cir
cumstances. If we could have the
''mirror held up to nature" only when
we were "acting pretty" as the old
fashioned people call it. we might be
pleased with the survey, but 1t strikes
me that if the "giftie" enabled us to see
ourselves when we are in a particularly
amiable mood and thinking how per-
fectly angelic we were and wishing that
everybody could be ''even as we were;"
If, say. at that juncture the "giftie"
should show us that our haloes set bias
on our heads or were not meant for us
at all, but for an entirely different per-
son, | am persuaded that we would
privately gnash our teeth at genial Rob
bic, and, like the old darby, wonder
why "de Lord couldn't take joke"
but sometimes the bitterest medicine is
best, and in this spirit we call the atten-
ton of our young readers TO the follow
ing extracts written by bright woman
in the New York Recorder:
Many women. particularly the more
youthful ones, commit through careless
ness or thoughtleSSntsS, many breaches
of good manners which need but re-
hinder to be speedily remedied. To be-
gin with. the sweet tooth of the average
American girl tempts her to eat candy
in the street and at the theaterS, though
she may be quite aware that to do SO is
not good form. The same girl who
would scOrn to eat peanuts and con-
demnS those delicacies as vulgar"

cups in public vehicles, public thor
oughfares and public places of amuse-
ment.
Many young women, the beSt-heaTted
In the world, will wound their parents
hearts by openly correcting or contra
dieting them, forgetting that their own
superior knowledge does not show up to
advantage when paraded at the expense
OF good manners. This habit OH the
part Of the younger members of society
is one that should be nipped in the bud
at once. Suppose father OF mother do
misprOnOunCe word, make miSState-
ment, or fall into an error of grammar,
does 1t make things any better by
emphasizing their faults so openly?
The first law of good manners is consid

other promptings, should restrain the
hippant correction Of parents before
strangers at least.

yourself illUred. General conversation
is the only sort tolerated in the best cir
cies. DO not talk and laugh at the the

annoying those about you who came to

and then discuss them so that there is
no possibility Of their installing the

consideration for others be your watch

your manners will improve steadily un-
