Clean the REFRIGERATOR.

The jocund Spring, when refrigerators re-
sumo their importance in the household. has
come. and even the best housekeepers need
to be reminded of the necessity for keeping
them cleaner than any other thing in the
house.
Warm food should never be placed in the
iee-chest, because it absorhs the odors and
favors of other foods. Butter and onions
should never be placed in the same compart-
ment. Neither should milk be put side by
side with strongly favored dishes.
Every day the ice-box should be washed out
and thoroughly dried. Many housekeepers
keep the ice from melting too rapidly by wrap
ping it in woolen cloth. II this is done the
cloth must be fresh. clean, and dry each morn
ing.
Once week everything should be removed
and the different parts washed with hot water
and soda. The racks should be removed.
washed, dried. and put in the sun for some
time. Sometimes the entire refrigerator
should be rolled into the yard, tipped up,
propped open and thoroughly summed. The
waste pipes should be cleaned every day or so
with flexible roo.

Facts and Faucies.

Children or persons suffering from diseases
should never be allowed to touch or fonde
domestic animals, as cats and dogs, as these
are frequently the means by which contagion
Is carried to others.
Athletes insist on these points in starting
for a walk or race. Parents make a mis-
take in ordering wider when longer shoes arc
required; until they stop growing children
need half size longer every time they get n
pair of shoes.
1t is the lady's place to bow at the first
meeting: after an introduction IL she desires
to continue the acquaintance. When making
a call gentleman takes care of his own hat
and coat, and puts them ON without assistance
unless in some way incapacitated-when
taking his departure.
The Irish cavalier hat is one of the smart
things of the between season before straws
are due. 1t comes in black and green, is
trimmed with fiat band bow and buckle, q
loose torsade and occasionally with a long
ostrich plume. Worn with one of the new
scarfs OF black fishnet wound around the
neck like the old-fashioned stock and tied in
broad bow, this hat goes well with tailor
made costumes. 1t is eminently suited for q
riding hat. Severe as it looks. It is generally
becoming.

EOr Solitary Single Men

Great success is reported of the first years 9
experience of the Rowton model lodging house
in London, the opening of which fifteen
months ago attracted a great deal of atten-
tion. The design of the experiment was the
improvement of the condition of single men
who have no certain occupation and no set
tied home. Lord Rowton designed the ex-
pertinent and furnished the funds for its trial.
The house accommodates 40 men, and af-
fords a separate sleeping apartment for every
lodger, and well-warmed and lighted dining,
smoking, and reading rooms, toilet and bath
rooms, with constant supply of hot and cold
water, conveniences for washing and driving
clothes, and cooking stoves with all utensils
and facilities for cooking food. Lodgers can
either cook their own food or buy their meals
at cost price. The charge for the full use of
all the conveniences and comforts of the house
for twenty-four hours is sixpence about equal
to II cents. The house has been continu-
ously full since the opening day, forty or fifty
people being turned away almost nightly, and
commercially the concern has proved COM
plete success. 1t returned profit of per
cent. for the first year, and is now paying a
net profit Of per cent. A company has been
formed to carry out the work, with a capital
OF f75,000, and other lodging houses on the
same plan are to be built forthwith in va
r1ous parts OF London.

the District of Columbia the Atlantic states
have 1856 appointments, against an appor,
tionment OF 1872. The northern central
states are entitled to 4,194; they have 2,777
appointments. The southern central states
are entitled to 2,063; they have 1.003. The
western states are entitled to 6l7; they have
$50.
There will likely be one effect Of the publ
cation of the civil service report which per-
haps the commission has not anticipated-a
furious onslaught by the Senators and Repre-
sentatives from the West on the appointing
power. Possibly the fact tina. his people were
not getting their share Of patronage at Wash

southern Congressman before. He is likely
to make 1t lively for some of the heads Of bu-

One Beauty of a Pure Child.

A pure child, like ray of sunshine, can go
anywhere without contracting faint. Though
choice of associations is essential to whole
some development. yet normal and health
full child may come in contact with great
deal OF roughness and vice without being in
jured by it. This can only be, however, when
the child carries with it continually the at
mosphere Of q pure, elevated, Christian home.
The intuitions of a child thus nurtured will
make it shrink from the taint of vice and keep
it pure.

Consciousness, thought. is ever evolving
through and in organism. The charging
brain capacity in man must be Tor a purpose
as surely as the growing wings on the species
of reptiles that became birds. Those wings
were the organs thrown out because of func-
t:onal development requiring the occupancy
of the air as well as earth. So mans devel-
opment will ever be along the line of his
aspirations. the enthusiasm. the God working
within him.
There is thought of vast importance that
is. in fact a part of this original one. Out
from among the many commands given to or
through Moses for his race christendom has
selected ten and embodied them in the
'canon," viz. Thou shalt not make unto thee
any craven image, or any likeness of any
thing that is in the heavens above, or that is
in the earth beneath. or that is in the waters
under the carth.n Herein is supposed to be
the eternal fiat against idolatry. The Israel
ite understood it as "A a command to destroy
all .'altars" and groves of the beathen,
whose lands he felt himself commanded to
occupy. Christendom has so understood it;
a general order to make unceasing war upon
the idolatry of "other people" and herein
seems to be a general poiIt OF agreement, also
a general tendency to change the form Of its
own idols or images.
What, then, is an ''image" or likeness of
anything?" Tothe primitive man, whether now
or at any time in his far past, it meant some
thing fashioned out of material, cut, carved
or Notwithstanding this organ OF vision
could Notwithstanding real and palpable 20
the sense Of touch, but as consciousness
evolves man discovers that the power to form
images is in himseh-behind the work Of
hands, or the perception of touch or sight.
Mans power to make ''images" is the subtle
something we call imagination; that thing
alone which makes him to differ from his
fellow-man.
So man, as man, is ever making and wor-
Shipping the images which fit his own pam
theon, that kingdom OF God that is within
him, whether they be of wood or stone or
gold or flesh or of spirit, so hong as he lives
he is an image maker, and he must, whether
he admits it publicly or privately to himself,
worship the images he daily sets up.

Something more must be done than merely to

1t is not too much. says the Springfield Re-
publican, to call the trial of W. C. P. Breckin-
ridge. which has now closed, the most pain
full scandal of its class since that which
clouded the great life of Henry Ward Beecher,
twenty years ago. The man had attained a
national fame; he held high and enviabe
position in political life and in public esteem !;
he had even become by his Plymouth address
in some measure an historical figure. Sud-
denly it was revealed to the country that he
had had led a false and vile life. His reputa-
tation is blasted; his fame is Dead sea fruit.
And in this universal feeling the verdict of the
jury has no additional influence. Whether it
is believed, as the jury decides, that Madeline
Pollard's tale is true, or whether it is disbe-
lieved, the conscience OF the people responds
that the mans punishment is just.
Let us reach to the essential evil OF this
story which has been SO fully told US. 1t is
most distasteful, most revolving to tell the
story, as We have been compelled to do.
Even though the situation is not unusual,
though many vulgar case of similar circum-

the conspicuity of the offender in this case
raises it to an Importance which forbids any
journal to ignore it. And passing by the
