HOME CALISTHENICS.
The Best 'rime for Athletics of Amp

Every girl ought to be able to let he1

Hours. No girl should use dumbbells
without skilled advice as to the weight
they should be. Much harm has beer

weight of the heads is too great, an6
very often the eXertion is much toe

Delicate girls suffer very much from
OVERRIDING even ordinary exercise anG
the very strongest must feel theil
strength impaired by too lavish use
of any one set of muscles. The best
time for practicing these exercises is i'm.

HORTICULTURAL HINTS.

The English ivy does not harm a tree
on which it grows.
See if little less water on irrigated
land will not be better.
Fruit when placed in cold storage
should be firm and hard
Sprinkling plants with water, when
frost is expected viii protect them.
Pears to be put in cold storage should
be picked before they begin to ripen.
Watermelons ought not to be grown
on the same ground oftener than three
years.
The grape vine trained to a single
stake has never done it's best in our ex-
perience.
Tomatoes are so hardy that they may
be transplanted even after the fruit
begins to set.
If grapes have been planted too close
ly and become too thick, better take
out every other vine.
The man who gives plants of all
kinds plenty of room and heroically
thins his fruit, will get the best re-
sults.-Western Plowman.

RACK FOR MILK BOTTLES.

is simply to collect the bottles promis-
cuously, get them all into a tub of
soaped water of some character wash
one bottle after another with the same
brush, put them in a rinse water all to-
gethcr, then into the cases, and put the
dirty covers down, leaving the bottles
open and giving opportunity for the
dust and dirt from the covers or bot
toms of the old cases to drop into the
bottles.
With just little mo- trouble and
with but very slight expense the bot
ties can be SO handled that there need
be no trouble whatever from any of
the objections offered in the line of the
bottles being possible carriers of dis
ease germs. Every dairy, no matter
how small, is incomplete without the
use of steam, and when a dairy is
equipped with this it is but little more
expense to have sterilizer built This
need be only simple wooden struc-
ture, and be made to suit the space at
hand. 1t can be so arranged that, as
the bottles are brought in, they can i'm
mediateIy be put in the sterilizer, care
having been taken that the bottles have
been carefully rinsed at the places
where they have been collected, by the
customers. After the bottles have been
sterilized they can then be washed in
the alkaline hot water and then rinsed
IN two other waters, great care being
taken in the last rinse water used; this
should be frequently changed.
After the bottles are rinsed thew
should again be placed in the sterilizer
and subsequently aired and summed lust
as milk cans are treated. A system by
which the dust is kept out and the air
allowed to circulate freely is by the
use of rack as shown in the cut. This
bottle rack may be so made that it can
be run right into the sterilizer: thence
the bottles can be easily put in good
circulating air and then brought to the
most convenient place for filing. This
rack may be made to hold 400 bottles.
or less or more if necessary. With
these precautions the possibility of con-
veying disease through the medium of
the bottles is very slight, and the dairy
man will find that the increased con-
fidence placed in him by his customers
will help his trade materially.-Rural

MILK BOTTLE RACK.
How to Do Away with the Possibility
of Conveying Disease by Means
of Bottles.

There has been considerable talk in
Philadelphia relative to the efforts of
some to have the bottling of milk
milk system of delivery. The objec-
tions advanced were that, as the bottles
go from house to house, and as disease
and communicating influences may sur
round the bottles in some of the many
places where they are delivered, they
might be TIE carriers of disease. This
objection is by no means a bad one,
and everyone handling milk in bottles
should see that proper precautions are
taken to avoid trouble from this source
At least 90 per cent. of the milk handled
in bottles to-day runs considerable risk
in this direction, as the general custom

NEW COTILLON FAVORS.
the Place of the Grape Paper and
Chiffon of Last Winter.

Cotillon favors for the coming spring
and summer cotillons, says the New
York Herald, have all been arranged by
the experts at home and abroad. Crepe
paper and chiffon of the last season have
">one out" and silk ribbon and wood
have taken their places. Real golf
sticks, balls, etc, will be a feature of the
cotillon season.
Spangled satin sashes are another
novelty in the favor field. Those have
the true Partisan touch to them and are
made of ribbon of every conceivable
evening hue. Double-faced satin rib
bon eight to ten inches wide is used,
and each sash requires at least two
yards and a half. They are tied, for
the convenience of the maiden who re-
ceives one, in a hsge bow, with very
long ends, and the proper thing will
be for the girl to slip them on her arm
while she is dancing.
Two "nouveautes' that will be used
are exceedingly grotesque. Both are
cotillon dollies of small size.
For the girls there is the powder puff
doll. This little manikin is made of
beeswaX, nail file and a powder puff.

'Baked apples may be used where

Mrs. S. T. Rorer on Proper Cooking
for the Nursery" in the Ladies' Home
Journal. Bananas should always be
cooked, unless they are very ripe and
the skins quite black. To bake ban
ana nicely you should have porcelain
or granite baking-dish. Strip the
skins from the bananas, place them in a
dish, sprinkle over tablespoonful of
sugar; add four or five tablespoonfuls
of water, and bake in quick oven for
twenty minutes, basting once or twice.
Serve warm. Blackberry jam, if prop
srly made, is quite an important nurs-

FURNISHING A HOME.
The Very Essence of Elegance, Says
Mr.. BOIs, Lies in the Simplicity
of ArranEem

"There is no idea more wantonlS er-
roneous than that it requires liberal
expenditure of money to have com
Portable and artistic home," writes Ed
ward w. Box in Ladies' Home journal.
"The very essence of elegance lies in
simplicity. 1t is not art to make a par
lor the duplicate of an exhibition room
in a furniture store. That simply calls
for an outlay of money and failure to
exercise taste. There is no tone in such
a room, no air of repose, no comfort, no
individuality. 1t speaks for what it is,
an exhibition. True art in furnishing
is found in allowing a home to slowly
develop under the tastes of those who
live in 1.-THE adoption of an idea here,
another there. The development of
taste requires time and cultivation. No
house worth living in can be completed
at one time. A home of comfort un-
folds itself, so to speak, and unfolds
slowly. True improvement comes in
this way, and only in this way. Young
married people cannot bear this fact in
mind too strongly when furnishing
their homes"
