housework Mems work is being
subdivided more ard more, giving
every man only a few things and
more goods are thus produced. but the
effect on the work is not so desirable.
Nothing is so wearing to body and soul
as to do necessarily the same thing. I
think, with large part at least of our
industrial population, mems work is
more monatonous than the housework
of the women &; aud if a woman is so
minded she can, by virtue of her in
dependence, vary the routine Of her
duties to some extent, while men often
have no option whatever about the
way which they do their work.
/ know that the argument OF this
article is one-sided. There are other
sides to the matter. But l often feel
that the minority of women, who are
capable and desirous of sharing IN the
professional life of men, are by their
struggle and outcries leading astray
the Judgment of other women, spread
ing the impression that men have
more of the real good of life than
women, causing some women to spend
their life's labor for that which will
never satisfy them, and causing still
greater number to think slightingly of
woman's chief calling and to feel a
greater grievance against their broth
ers than is just.-Watchman.

The Spiders.

The last of the four little things
which King Solomon said were "eX-
ceeding wise" is the spider. Of this
little insect he tells US: 1.-THE spider
taketb hold with her hands, and is in
kings palaces" prov. xxx. 2s)
There are many ways in which spid-
ers show wisdom, as you ell must have
noticed if you have watched them at
their work. When one has work to do;
she takes both those little hand sthat
reach out in front of her head, and she
seems to have no idea of working
with one hand, half working and
half playing. She works, and then
she rests, and then she is so patient and
persevering in building up the web
and drawing the lines tight that we
may well learn from her to take hold
with both hands, and not stop until
our work is finished.
The lesson of patience and persever.
ance spider is said to have taught
King Bruce, Of Scotland, one day
when he was sad and discouraged. He
was hiding in hut from his enemies
who were hunting MIN, and he
saw spider trying to get from one
beam in the roof to another. 1t tried
six times and fell every time. Bruce
remembered that he had tried six times
to save Scotland and had been defeated
every time. Then he watched the
spider the seventh time, and saw it
slowly and carefully fasten its thread
to the beam and draw itself across.
He resolved to persevere as the spider
had done, and went out to take up his
work again.-Youth's Instructor.

Paste this I'm the Scrap Book.

Prof. J. F. C. DuPre, horticulturist
of Clemson College, tells how the or
chardes and gardens there are protect
ed from mischievons insects, jay birds
and English sparrows We have
needed and used very little and but
few insecticides, except to test their
relative merits. Small boxes, elevated
on poles at the rate of five to the acre,
have been the nesting and brooding
places of the common blue bird and
other insectivorous birds, and these,
with the aid of common toad, have
kept all noXious insects subjuegated
except the harlequin bug. No bird or
fowl, so far as we have observed, will
kill or eat this bug. Our rule is to
encourage and provide for (by furnish
ing places and food in wlnter) all
birds of every kind except the jay bird
and the socalled English sparrow
These two last we kill on sight. The
blue bird, cat bird, and the old field
sparrow are worth their weight in
"silver" to any gardener. The va
rious cabbage worms are easily dispos.
ed of. Wheat bran, corn meal. gyp.
sum, floats of any fine dust, freely
sprinkled on the plants when the dew
is on, will soon destroy them. After
the cabbage has headed, take a leaf
from the bottom and lay it on the top
late in the evening !; in the early NOR
ming you will find most of the worms
on underside of this leaf The harle-
quin bug is made of sterner stuff: Next
to hand-picking, the best remedy we
have found is to plant mustard or tur-
uips near to the cabbage the bug pre-
fers these and gathered on them kill
(both) with crude petroleum or cheap
kerosene oil.

Do,icIous Tuscan puddiur.

Make boiled custard with one pint
of milk sweetened with half cup of
sugar. boiled and poured on the three
beaten eggs. Return the mixture to
the saucepan and stir until it thickens,
but do not let it curdle as it will if it
boils for more than second. When
cool add one pint of cream, half a cup
of sugar, a quarter box Of gelatine,
dissolved and strained, half a teaspoon
full of vanilla, quarter of a teaspoon
full of essence of lemon, twenty drops
of extract of bitter almond. Put in a
mould with smooth sides and pack in
ice and salt. The proportion is two
quarts of broken ice to one of coarse
salt, we'll mixed. In an hour remove
the mould, and after wiping it careful
ly uncover it, and with knife scrape
the frozen cream from the sides. Beat
it thoroughly. as this makes the tex
ture fine and smooth. If it is nearly
frozen add half a pound of sweet al
monds, blanched and chopped fine,
half pound of candied ginger. cut in
small pieces, and half pound of cit
ron prepared in the same way.

A Little BOOtblack.

A hundred years ago there lived a
little boy in Oxford, whose business it
was to clean the boots of the students
of the famous university there. He
was poor, but bright and smart.
Well, this lad, whose name was
George, grew rapidly in favor with the
students. His prompt and hearty way
of doing things, and his industrious
habits and faithful deeds, won their
admiration. They saw in him the
promise of noble man, and they pro-
posed to teach him little every day.
Eager to learn, George accepted their
proposal and he soon surpassed his
teachers by his progress. IA boy who
can blacken boots we'll can study"
said one Of the students.
Keen as brier," said another,
land pluck enough to make hero"
But we cannot stop to tell of his pa
tience and perseverance. He went on,
step by step, just as the song goes
"One step and then another"
until he became mana learned and
eloquent man-who preached the gos-
pei to admiring thousands. The little
bootblack became the renowned pulpit
orator, George Whitefeld.

Faith cannot always see the sun, but
it can always point to it.


it can always point to it.
The faith never appropriates any
thing that does not belong to it.
Life will always be worth living il
we make it a ministry of love.
Every day is a little life and our
whole life is but day repeated.
About the only sermon that nobody
thinks is too long is walking sermon
Though lifted alone, yet every true
man should lift up his voice for God.
To search for the truth is noble, but
to live the truth we know is nobleI
still.
A contented mind is a continual
feast. But festive folks are seldom at
tracted to it.
We cannot know whether man is
rich until we have found out what bis
wealth cost him.
Faith is the sacrifice of the nnder'
standing to God, repentance the sacri'
flee of the will.
Every day which is bidden to wait
returns day with seven fresh duties al
its back-Charles Kingsley,
The fruits of Christianity, like the
fruits of Canaan, indisputably prove
the goodness of their source.
We seldom feel so incompetent that
we are not willing to risk criticism ol
something we know nothing about.
If you are walking away from the
sun, your shadow is falling on the
fault with them.
Agood man, like a good clock, at
tracts more attention from the passing
throng by going wrong for day than
by going right for q year.
Any honest test, however searching,
will find Gods promises true, but un.
believing investigation will as surely
discover grounds for distrust.
