Sick Room Furnishings.

The furnishings of sick room de-
pend upon the nature of the ailment.
When the disease is contagious the
more closely the apartment resembles a
monastic cell in simplicity and baroness,
the better. Carpets, curtains, and drap-
cries of all sorts should be banished
along with upholstered furniture. An
iron bed is the best for the patient, and
what chairs, tables, and other necessary
furniture the room contains should be of
II plaineSS that will allow of thorough
disinfection, or of cheapness that will
permit of their destruction at the end of
theuslege-
There should be some hesitation in a
too generous use of draperieS. Such as
are admitted should be oflight thin goods
that may be taken down and washed
with regularity which will preclude
the Judgement of disease germs. There
are however, acute as we'll as chronic
diseases, which are not contagious, and
in these cases the only consideration to
deter one from .ornamenting room as

Do the Next Thing.

Don't live a single hour of your life
without doing exactly what is to be done
in it, and going straight through it
from beginning to end. Work, play,
study, whatever it is, take hold at once
and finish it up squarely; then do the
next thing, without letting any moments
drop between. 1t is wonderful to see
how many hours these prompt people
contrive to make of a day. 1t is as if
they picked up the moments that
dawdlers lost. And if you eyer find
Yourself where you have so many things
pressing upon you that you hardly know
where to begin, let me tell you secret:
Take hold of the very one that comes
to hand, and you will find the rest will
all fall into line and follow after like
company of well drilled soldiers; and
though work may be hard to meet when
1t charges In a squad, it is easily van
pushed if you bring 1t into line.

A Novel Screen.

In our summer days, when one al
most lives outdoors, the furnishings of
the piazza are almost as important
as the house furniture and if
you are one bit literary or if you are a
voluminOus letter writer, you will surely
want writing screen. If you are handy
with tools, you can make it yourself; if
that is not possible, it will cost very
little to have carpenter help you with
the job. The framework required is a
large, well-put-tOgether clotheshorse
with two wooden shelves fastened be-
tween two leaves of the screen-on the
wrong side of course. One shelf is fas-
tened half way from the top and one to
the bottom of the screen frame, then
make covers for them of silk with
frilled edges, set small waste basket on
the lower shelf and on the upper one lay
pen tray, paper knife, envelope, safety
inkstand and steel ink eraser. A pen
wiper and safety blotter are hang on
little brass screws fastened TO the wood
work, then slip Il small desk pad between
four large screws placed al exactly the
right places on the third leaf of the

Young People on the Farm.

Passing along through wide stretch of
countrynot long since and letting mymind
roam at it's will the thought occurred
to me, is it possible for a man to move
into some out-of-the-way place with
family of children, if necessity demands
that he 60 to the place-and rear them
in a fitting manner? had about decided
that 1t could, and on picking up paper
| happened to find another OF the same
opinion. The writer says it is mis-
taken idea that constant memorable toll
with no pleasure and no means Of self
culture, is the lot of people on the farm.
Toll there is, and plenty Of it, but there
also time for the enjoyment of social
life, and for self-culture. The farmer
does not subscribe for one newspaper for
three months before election, as one
writer tlippantly asserts; he is, as a rule,
azines, and high grade farm journals
that treat of scientific farming, and So
cial and political problems, are always
found on bis table. Books of travel,
histories and scientific works, as we'll as
the latest fiction, are also there, and
more well read or better informed class
than the young people on the farm 1t
will be hard to find.
So that after all there is no excuse for
girls and boys not applying themselves
studiously and advancing even though
they have not the advantages of schools
But one point in favor of this advance
ment must not be lost sight of, and that
is, the parents must not fall behind but
keep up with the children. J.

Our Good Resolutions.

True it is rather late to be talking of
our good resolutions yet wish to pass
along the happy thoughts l read last
week in one of my papers.
The writer tells of good resolutions
made by one, to be always cheerful.
1t struck me that it was resolution
not too late for some of us to adopt now
Here is what she says:
If 1 could speak no pleasant word l
said nothing, but smiled.
Sometimes it was hard; harder than
Can tell. but it helped to take them over
the rough places, and keep them from
seeing so much of the dark cloud of adj
versity and helped them sooner to see
the silver lining; for like all clouds it
had bright side, as we'll as a dark one
When the dark cloud Of adversely had
rolled away the sun of prosperity seemed
to shine the brighter, it's beauty inten
sifed by the reflection from the dark
cloud in the distance; and they enjoyed
it's radiance all the more on account of
the cheerful face and spirit of the house
keeper and homemaker. But she had
another reward, too, in hearing it re-
ported that neighbor hid said she did
love TO go to her house for Ii was "res5"
to talk to her.
This year she has added TO her resolve
to be cheerful, one to help all in her
power to make other lives brighter and
more happy. 1t will be but little she
can do for she has no money and little
time; but by being smiling and cheerful
all the time and improving each little
opportunity as it comes, the record of
helfulness kept up above may count for
much more than that of those who had

HOUSEHOLD DEPARTMENT.

A HELPFUL CORNER.
Summer Housekeeping.

How to economize is going to be one
of the perplexlng questions with us for
the next few years while we are waiting
for our orange trees to come back to
us-if they ever do-and here are few
hints
Early mornings in summer are seldom
uncomfortably warm, so there is no ex-
cuse for cold breakfast; but when such
is the case, and the day threatens to be
very hot, the dinner can be cooked or
partly cooked by the same fire which
prepares the breakfast. The meat, if
roast, can be put in the oven before
breakfast and if not desired cold, at din
ner time it can be reheated with very
little fire. Many of our summer vege-
tables will also bear relocating. Desserts
should be almost entirely of fruits, but
if buildings or pies are preferred they
also can be made in the early morning
hours. The tea can also be drawn,
strained, and put in a cold place ready
for the ice. A word about foods for
warm weather. Many persons heat their
blood and make themselves uncom fort
able by improper food, To keep our
blood cool we should eat plenty of fruit
and very little meat. A diet OF fish,
milk, eggs, fruits and vegetables is more
suitable for the summer table than
heavy meats If, however, meat must
be had, lamb, veal and poultry are bet
ter than beef and mutton. Pork should
be strictly avoided, except in the form
of ham or bacon,
Salt meat m axes us drink water freely,
thus supplying the waste caused by
perspiration, and we naturally crave
salt meat, rather than fresh in warm
weather.
Of course different natures require
different foods, and some cannot, or
think they cannot, do with less than
their usual quantity of meat, no matter
how warm the weather may be, but
when they suffer with heat they should
make no complaint.
Much can be done 10 mitigate the heat
and discomfort of summer cooking by
using oil or gas instead of coal or wood
for fuel. While cooking on an oil stove,
you may be just as uncomfortable as
you would over coal fire, but the
whole room will not be heated nor need
the heat be continuous as that from
coal fire, because it can be entirely
turned off as soon as done with.

lavishly as heart could desire, is the
possibility that the patient may be an
noyed by the thorough cleaning and
busting that thickly furnished room
requires. One other objection to room
crowded with draperies and ornaments
is that the sick person who must lie and
look at them grow desperately tired of
them, and long for plain open spaces on
which to rest their weary eyes.
For the floor of the invalid's chamber
closely woven, strong mating is per-
haps the best covering. 1t is less noisy
than hard wood floor, cleaner than
carpet. The rugs that may be laid here
and there, where they will do most good
can be readily taken up and shaken.
Wherever else economy may be
practised, it must be cast aside when
the bed is purcL ased. AS has been said
before, an iron bedstead is the best in
any case, although its use is not essential
in non-contaglous diseases. The best
springs, the finest hair mattresses should
be secured, and pillows and bed linen
should be chosen for their quality with
out regard to price. A broad comfort
able lounge to which the invalid can be
lifted, an easy chair a light stand for
| books. or work, and a well-filled book
case, are among the things that 60 to
make up comfort in the room grad ually
becomes the expr ession of it's inmates in
dividuality, aud the books, pictures and
ornaments she gathers about her give
her satisfaction she could never gain
from the arbitrary choice of others.
In any case an open fire will probably
be a delight, and it possesses distinct
merit as a means of ventilation. A few
pots of plants add much to the cheer of
room, and now that the idea has been
explored that growing plants are I'M
healthful in a sleeping room, there can
be no objection to their presence.
Palms, begonias, primroses, cycIamen
and other odoriess flo ers, are espec-
tally to be commended, while blossoms
with heavy perfume like hyacinths or
lilies should be excluded.

Dainty Pillow Slips.

Orn amentlng pillow Slips at both ends
is one of the latest modes. Both ends
of the slip are finished with a hem
stitched hem before it is closed up in the
usual manner. Decorative sprays are
worked with white linen, in outline or
satin stitch, near each end of the upper
side only; or single blossoms, carelessly
scattered about, are sometimes chosen.
Frills of lace, embroidery or plain, fine
linen finish each end, going only once
across; that is, the plain under side of
the slip has no trimming whatever
These slips are very handsome and please
those who welcome every change, but,
dear guest, be thoughtful for the house
keeper-lay the pretty pillows aside and
sleep upon the soft little plain ones so
suggestively placed beneath them.
