A Household Scrap Book.

A scrapbook with the pages already
MI cilaged is very convenient. but IL one
cannot procure such a book, take an old
school atlas and cut. about one inch from
the binding. every other six leaves through
the entire book, says a writer in House
hold.
For convenience in referring to clippings
the book may be divided into sections
something like the following:
Animal, vegetable mineral. political, So
cial, domestic, foreign and miscellaneous,
allowing. say ten pages TO each section, or,
If one is apt to have a greater number of
clippings In one section than another, a
greater or less number OF pages may be
allotted as the case requires. A few pages
may be left for biographies and pictures
that accompany such sketches.
A further subdivision of these sections
may be made If desired; for example:
Political may be divided into Repub-
Ncan and Democratic, with pages for party
changes.
The vegetable section may be classed
garden, flower and forest, and the others
similarly. Thus with an index on the first
page, one can refer to q clipping without
a moments delay.
Now. after the clippings have been care
fully trimmed, dampen the reverse side
with a slightly moistened sponge, IL the
first named book is used: but If the atlas,
a muciiags brush is necessary. Be par
llcuIdT not 10 wet OFeTmuSn, IOr In either
case the moisture VIII ooze from the edges
of the clippings, and the inevitable
smeared and torn page is the result.
A dry cloth should be used 10 press down
clippings and absorb excess moisture
IL person has many papers TO clip Il
is perhaps advisable TO provide ones self
with a scissors accompaniment all the
time and clip as one reads, but in case
others must read the papers later, a notch
torn in the margin, corresponding with
the column IN which the clipping is to
be found. will doubtless answer the pur-
pose.
Clippings accumulate very rapidly, ana
after a two weeks delay II is no slight
task 10 catch up again. end IL Is, therefore,
best TO paste every evening.
The scrapbook in the family may also
be the means OF assisting the mother to
determine the inclination OF the childs
mind.
Give each child scrapbook and instruct
him TO All IL with whatever material he
likes best, and one will contain a prepon-
derance OF animals. another machines. or
flowers. or historical notes. as the mind
inclines.
