The true northerner., 1897-01-06

Housekeepers who are perhaps consider
ed faddish by their neighbors are taking
out set washbowls from the bedrooms of
their homes in all cases where they are not
inclosed In a closet that opens TO the outer
air. Ii Is of course a slight increase of
work for the maid or carctaker Of the
room, but such chatelaines as Insist upon
1t do so because they feel that the health OF
their households particularly the young,
susceptible members of them, is subjected
to just so much less risk. Toilet closets
that can be shut of entirely from the sleep
ing room at night are less harmful than
those that ventilate all night into the air
breathed by the sleeping occupant of the
room. Such however, should be opened
and aired, If ever so briefly, before they
are entered in the morning In no case
should the old fashioned closed sinks be-
meath the bowl be left. They are germ col
lecting and holding and a distinct and un-
necessary additional menace To health.
A woman who has lately remodeied the
bedrooms of her house in this respect has
made most attractive washstands from
small sized kitchen tables. One set In the
corner of the room and finished with a
deep valance of cretonne reaching the floor
and matching the other hangings of the
room has on its broad top a cover of white
pique finished around all the edges with
large buttonholed scallop. These, she
says, she has made up in considerable
quantity. They launder easily and are
heavy enough to be waterproof for con-
siderable time. Under this, over the board,
Is placed a cover of white enameled cloth,
which can be wiped every morning, thus
preventing the wood from becoming water
soaked from childrens splashing use. To
protect the wall the same careful economist
has strips of linen half "A yard wide when
finished and long enough to do service on
the two sides Of the stand. These are hem
med on the right side with catstitch in
linen floss and have loops of narrow linen
tape sewed at intervals of six inches along
the upper edge. These are attached to
small brass headed nails set In the wall,
and the problem of turning the corner"
is thus easily solved. New York Times.

BE Their Dearest Friend.

In bringing up children, sometimes the
mother seems to forget the great power of
love to influence action. A word, a blow,
stern command and q swiftly following
punishment so often constitute the fami-
ly discipline. Instead of the sternness try
a little gentleness, not persuasion, for
when an order is once given obedience
ought to be implicit, but try the loving
persuasion before the emergency comes,
make the children feel that you love them
and want them to love you and teach them
60 show their love by obeying your wishes.
Show your pleasure when they are prompt
in obedience, show that you appreciate the
sacrifices of feeling they make when they
give up their own will to follow yours,
and, take my word for 1t, they will learn
to obey you cheerfully and spontaneously,
simply because they love you and would
I'm their little hearts be sorry to grieve
their dearest friend. d.-Housewife.

Worth Knowing.

Thin glass is less likely to be broken by
boiling water than glass which is thicker,
since IL allows the heat TO pass through 1t
more quickly. A teaspoon put into tum-
bier before pouring in boiling water will
often prevent the glass from cracking, es-
pecially If you pour the water in very
slowly. Soap should be cut with "a wire or
twine and kept out of the air for two OF
three weeks, for IL it dries quickly it will
crack and will easily break when wet Soda,
by softening the water, saves great deal
of soap. 1t is said that the oftener carpets
are shaken the longer they wear; the dirt
that is under them grinds out the threads.
Scald your wooden utensils often and keep
your tinware dry. When washing them,
dampen cloth, dip it in common soda,
rub the ware briskly and wipe dry before
setting aside. If copper utensils are used.
be careful not to let the tin be rubbed off
and to have them repaired when the least
defect appears. Again, never put by any
soup, gravy, etc., in them, or, indeed, In
any metal vessel. Stone and earthware
utensils should be provided for these pur
poses. Tin vessels, II kept damp, soon
rust, and this causes holes Suet and lard
keep better in tin than in earthenware.

Women Who Should BE Pretty.

Too many American women who are
pretty in girlhood become positively ugly
in middle age. Those who are shapeless
with fat and have muddy compilations are
often thus unlovely because of laziness and
self indulgence. They eat the rich and
sweet things which make flesh and do not
take sufficient exercise, and with the flesh
and the inertia the whole woman becomes
heavy and dull of aspect. 1t Is these hab-
its and not the flight of years that take
the expression of youth out of the eyes of
these danes, the look of freshness from the
skin, the lightness of grace from the step.
The odd thing about 1t is that while they
deplore the loss of beauty no persuasion
will make them adopt the Spartan meth
ods which will bring at least some of 1t
back.
AS for the thin, nervous women who
have lost the delicate, round, pink and
white outlines of youth in sallowness and
scragginess, they are no more amenable TO
reason and common sense. A daily bath
in tepid water, plenty of nourishing food
judiciously chosen and resolute avoid
ance of the twin hends, hurry and worry,
mean a new rosiness in the cheek, softer
contour in the figure, a new enjoyment of
life But there must be no half measures
1t won't do to follow a wise regimen for
six weeks and then give it up because the
results are not satisfactory. An unruly di-
gestion and tyrannical nerves are not re-
duced to order in twice six weeks Many
months and unrelenting perseverance are
needed.
1t might as we'll be said frankly that
American women do not bathe enough.
Thoroughly good health, the physical we'll
being that it is delight to see, is impos-
sible unless the skin is kept clean. and In
condition to do its own work in connection
with the rest of the system. To be well,
to be handsome, to be light of heart sure
ly all this is worth little regular care and
Thought and exertion. n.-NewYork Tribune

Home Treatment of Wounds.

1t is "a good plan to have always in the
house some absorbent cotton and some old
clean linen, which should be in strips
from to inches wide and half yard in
length. After wound has been made per-
fectly clean dip suitably sized piece of
cotton wool into clean, carbolized water,
press out any excess of liquid, then apply
over the wound and wrap up with the linen
strips Cat scratches should be treated In
this way, as the claws of cat are often
unclean, and dirt particles, however small,
may give rise to trouble.
When a wound refuses to cease bleeding
after being bound up, sponging with clean
cold water will sometimes aid in stopping
the flow of blood. Salt or turpentine should
never be applied to fresh wound, as they
not only cause a great deal of unnecessary
pain, but often prolong the time of healing

The Baby Has Rights.

Babies are human, and, like grown up
human beings, have their rights. But few
people appear to think SO. How would
any man enjoy having nearly every one
who entered his house tickle him in the
ribs and "keechee' at him and not expect
him to protest against such treatment?
Yet in such way are most babies treated
to make them laugh, and because they are
unable to speak they have to endure II.
Babies should be kept free from all nerv-
Gus excitement and as quiet as possible.
They should not be made to laugh i'm
moderately, because it induces wind to
gather within the stomach, and many a
violent fit of crying Is occasioned thereby.
When our second child was an infant Of
some five months, we had one day house
full of company. We were busted with
waiting upon them, and the baby was
passed about from one to another, each
guest trying to outdo the last in making
him laugh.
We did not find time to pay much atten-
ton to our child until the company had
left, when we found him limp and weak,
pulse feeble flutter and cold perspira-
ton covering his body.
The babe had not been fed for some time,
but would not nurse, only lying motion
less, with wide open eyes. Becoming
alarmed, a doctor was called, who said,
1.-The child has the appearance OF having
passed through some undue excitement,
which has brought on nervous collapse"
We told the physician the events of the
afternoon, and he thought that sufficiently
accounted for the baby's condition. After
that night of anxious Watching and our
baby's slow recovery we forbade all tic
king and undue tossing Of him.
Perhaps few children would have been
thrown into the same condition, yet those
who are of the nervous temperament should
be protected against such danger = New
York Ledger.
