Hints for Reading,

A writer for young people advises
that they read always with an atlas
and dictionary at hand, and carefully
locate every place mentioned, as well
as look up the meaning of all the
words new to them. This might
make slow work of reading, but think
how much knowledge one could thus
acquire. The same writer urges boys
and girls to read aloud in the home as
often as they can and practice on the
article they are to read until they
can do it so we'll that it will be
pleasure to hear them.
A United States senator once told
:le that the habit of his life had been
to choose subject, and for months
read everything he could get get hold
OF on that subject, until he felt that
he knew quite n good deal about it,

The Little Housekeepers.

What pretty things can be made out
of paper? Here is needle-case made
by little girl about 10 years old. She
made it for her mother and did it
without any help. 1t is such dear
little thing that all girls should make
one for their own workbaskets. The
little girl who made this one does not
like to sew; SO she managed to- con-
trive the whole thing without taking
stitch. First she got piece of stiff
drawing paper and cut it ten inches
long and four inches wide. This she
marked off with dotted lines. Along
the lines she cut to n point, and
through it made short slit
with a pen-knife. Through this she
pushed the end of ribbon, and fast
ened another ribbon in the same man.
ner. She then got some bits of pink
cashmere, which had been left over
from her last party dress. She pinked
the edges and fastened them together
with a piece of pale pink ribbon,
threaded in and out through little
holes she had cut in the cashmere.
She fastened this to the inside of the
case with mucilage, and then made
another for the lowe. half of the case.
The decoration on the outside, the
maker explained. was an original de-
sign. The flowers are of the same
shade of pink as the ribbon, and the
dots are put on with gold paint.
