THs HOUSEHOLD.
Bow TO Manage or Washday-A Fancy
Lounge Pillow Pointers For
the Housokeeper.

When | was able TO work, did not
usually wash on Monday. for there was
the milk. churnng and the disorder
which ottun comes from devoting Sun
day especially to religious duties. ! used
to make needful preparations for wash
day by roasting meat or chicken, which
could be eaten cold for dinner Potatoes
were prepared for baking, apples made
ready by taking out their cores. filling
with sugar, placing within dish Of
porcelain or Liverpool ware with water
in it, and "a pudding of some kind made;
this while waiting for the clothes to
boil, aud all were placed within the
oven, leaving the top of the stove clear
for the washing
As early as possible. the boiler was
on, and when the water was sufficiently
warm some was taken out; the clothes,
which had been nicely sorted, were wet
thoroughly within the tub, wrung and
thrown into the boiler; the water had
been prepared by putting in pint OF
good soft soap, or hard soap shaved fine,
say half bar, also two tablespoonfuls
of 80 o'clock washing tea, which l
have found gives the best results of all
the washing preparations | ever tried,
and left them to boil for 90 minutes,
when | took them out, sudsed and
rinsed. Do not condemn this method
until you have tried it. L rested or did
something else in the meantime.
When the clothes are upon the line,
you will have time to tidy up before
laying the table. Let me say that l
think tablecloths starched little keep
clean longer. We have been trying pa
per napkins laid underneath each plate
for every day. Do not raise your hands
in horror. They are not bad neatly
pinked about the edge, which the chill
dren love to do, and they require no
washing, which is something to be
thought of,
When those apples are taken from the
oven, place small lump of butter on
each, or pour over them sweet cream.
When you wash in this way, you will
not feel tagged out and as though every
thing in the world was going to smash.
Instead you can read an article or take
the children's stockings to mend while
you go over and see that neighbor in
feeble health whom you have long neg
lected Not the least kind Of doubt but
that both will feel better for your hav-
ing bestowed the little attention. IS.

The Unlucky Dog.

Towser was an unlucky dog He was
very black and shaggy and very wise
for a dog only years old. His mis-
tress, whose name was Blanche, was 9
years old. He was only year old when
he was given to her, aud she had taught
him many tricks and some manners
too OF one of his unlucky mishaps /
will now tell you.
Once when no was calling with his
mistress at friends house and was
running around the yard he saw a
mouse Now, Towser loved mice, and so
began to chase this one 1t ran straight
for the we'll, where its house was, and
Towser after it. The mouse ran into its
hole. Towser jumped after it and fell
right into the well. He commenced to
cry and howl for help. Blanche heard
her pet and tried to find him At last
she thought of the well, and, running
to it, she saw the poor dog. The bucket
was soon let down, and he very quickly
jumped into it and was pulled up and
saved. He had many other mishaps,
some worse than this one. Was not he
nlucky?-Eunice Bronson in New York

Sarah AIMS Name.

She was very unhappy little girl,
and it was all on account OF her name,
which was Sarah Ann. None of her be-
loved princesses in the fairy stories,
none Of the little girls, good or bad, in
any of her books were called Sarah
Ann. II she couldn't be called by such
lovely names as Goldenhair, Violet
Eyes, Ethelwinda or Gloriana mamma
might at least have named her Edith or
Helen or Maud or Kitty; but Sarah
Ann She didn't care if Sarah and Ann
were the names of two dear aunts, they
were just as ugly as could bo.
1t was a rainy day, and she couldn't
go out, and that made her all the
crosser, so she just sat by the fire and
sulked until the bell rang, and poor,
wet, shivering little colored girl came
in She was homely, oh, just as home
ly as could be, and she had no stockings
on, only wornout shoes. While mamma
was getting ready some of Sarah Ann s
old clothes she asked the colored girl
her name. "Violet Maud Clarissa John
son, was the answer. Mamma looked
tying the bundle.
After Violet Maud Clarissa Johnson,
very grateful for the clothes and food,
bu. casting regretful look at the
bright fire, had gone into the wet again.
Sarah Ann told mamma that she didn t
feel quite so badly about her name as
she did before
name! A rose ny any uruor ..~u. o wouiu

And Sarah Ann decided that she
would be IA nice sweet rose for the rest
of that day anyway, instead of horrid
