A correspondent in this department re-
Gently stated that if housekeeper arose at
five o'clock, by six thirty she could be out on
the veranda enjoying the morning breezes.
If she is really housekeeper with house
and family to care for. how does she do it?
In every household there is a certain routine
to be gone through every week and every
day of each week. Every day there are
three meals to get and dishes to wash three
times, sweeping and busting bed-making,
etc., to be done. Every week there is wash
ing. ironing baking, scrubbing, cleaning TO
be done. have a family of four to care
for and cannot get the work all out of the
way much before time to prepare an early
dinner. am neither very slow nor poor
manager but the lady must have better
method than [ have found. Will she tell us
how she manages?

Holders and Brushes.

Tastes differ rs to the size of holders for
use about the stove; some like large, thin
ones. and others prefer them small and
thick. It does not matter which Wav thew
are made. so you can have plenty of them
and use them. / make covers for them,
which can be easily slipped off and washed,
with q small ring or tape seWen on one cor
ner for hanging them up. Hang near a
stove, so there will be no temptation to use
towels or an apron.
Besides the various kinds of brushes used
for scrubbing, keep one exclusively for
washing vegetables; potatoes, turnips, beets,
etc.. can be more easily cleaned in this way
than in any other.
Use a small tooth brush for cleaning
around the handles of cups and tureens,
and for dishes with rough surfaces, or
raised designs keep it convenient and it
will be used Oftener. | keep mine in a
drawer of my kitchen workable, beside my
silver polish, channels skin, and other use
full cleaners
have found a small paint or varnish
brush. costing five cents, useful accom-
paniment to the larger stovepolishlng
brush, as it can be made to reach into cor.
ners where the other one will not go.
A nail brush for the cooks and the
children's use is indispensable. OF course
there are dust brushes, Crumb brushes and
tooth brushes. l only mention those which
do not find in general use, but which cost
little ana aid much in making easier the
work which many deem drudgery.-E

The Sleep of Children.

A child should be in bed as the fowls are,
at shutdown at least. And he should be al
lowed to rise in the morning as soon as he
wakes It is not only torture but an un
healthy mischief, to compel children to lie
awake two hours to prevent disturbing
older people. The morning sun is most
essential to plant life. A conservatory
should always, if possible, be on the east
side of house. 1t is equally true that the
morning sun is most valuable for animal
vigor and that includes human beings.
We, all of us, are breaking both ends of the
law. Our sleep should be taken earlier, and
we should never fail of getting the morning
sun.
I abominate night parties for children
believe every physician does. 1t is not so
much the exposure and the eating in the
night, and the bad associations formed (of
a high toned sort possibly, but the break
ing into the sleep habit. Equally bad is it
for children to study in the evening. 1t
gorges their brains with blood, and if they
sleep they dream. I had little patient of

It was q marvel and pride to his parents
that the youngster worked out hard prob

Motherly Indulgence.

Miss Elizabeth Peabody, the eminent
educator, says: There are those who dep
recate motherly indulgence as if it were the
greatest evil. Doubtless it will become a
great evil if it be not properly subordinated
to the wisdom which appreciates the divinity
of order or if it is alternated with capricious
seventies in short. if the indulgence pro-
ceeds from Incidence or self-lOve instead Of
love of the child. The indulgence that
really comes from the last is a recognition
Unconscious it may beg of the divine pos
sibilties of the chid--a spark of divine
creativeness OF the two evils extreme in
diligence is not so deadly mistake as ex-
IRENE severity. The one fatal thing is to
wound the child's heart 1t is better to give
up the point of controlling its Will to right
eOusness for the moment than to do that y;
and parent is the least likely of all persons
to wound the childs heart.-Farm, Field

A HELPFUL CORNER.
DESTINY.

Live thou today thy best, and fill
Thy noblest sphere, through good or ill.
He need not fear the futures way
Who lives a noble life today.
Fulfil thy fair ideals now;
Let men today see on thy brow
That crown beyond all earthly cost
That some have left to time, and lost.
For many be the minds that say,
'We will be great some future day!'
And, like the mirage on the sea,
Their dreams but mock reality.
O think not future years can give
A grace that doth not in thee live,
That hath not of thy toll and care
Been wrought to make thy spirit fair.
Read from the tablets of thy heart
Thy destiny in what thou art.
And know the promise of the goal
Is in the altitude of soul.
Awake, then! seize the present time,
And mark it by some deed sublimel
Smite down thy sin, bid sloth away,
And in thyself be great today!
So live, and 10! the humblest things
Shall lift thee as on eagles wings,
And thou thy guerdon sure shalt see,
For as thou Invest thou shalt be.
