sand. So it is with a woman. In her own
home, her interest is constantly aroused,
every womanly instinct is called forth,
and she constantly becomes more and
more womanly and lovabe.
1t Is the woman who boards who be-
comes the trifier, not the woman who has
her own home. 1t Is the woman who
boards who becomes flippant, not the wo-
man whose thoughts are centered on her
household. 1t is the woman who boards
who becomes the gossip not the woman
with home ties and home cares A wo-
man who spends few years in board
ing house becomes accustomed to the
ease and comforts which surround her.
without any exertion on her own part,
and she becomes more and more reluctant
as the years pass by to exert herself to
make a home for her family.
Children brought up in boarding house
lose the best part of their rightful inner
itence, for they have no home association,
no happy recollection of their home life,
in true pleasures to which they can look
back when they have become men and
women. Make, then, a home girls, in
which you can look back after many years
have passed with pleasant thoughts of
the many happy hours that were passed
beneath your own rooftree.
There are cares and trials in every
home, but the pleasures are also to be
found there rather than in a boarding
house, where gossip and idleness are
among the chief features, and where
home pleasures are lacking.
There Is a good deal of what our grand
mothers would consider very undignified
"horseplay" going on at the various
house parties among smart people-rough
practical jokes and other amusements that
to old-fashioned people would SAVIOR more
of the kitchen and stable than appropri-
ate drawing room pastimes for ladies and
gentlemen, says the New York Tribune.
Il seems to take very little to amuse these
fashionable children of larger growth.
whose frolics are certainly absurd. To
play "pranks" in each others bedrooms
seems to be a form of diversion that is
always popular To make pie" OF the
beds, which consists of taking off one
sheet and folding the other smoothly
across the middle so that the two ends at
the top appear like the regulation pair,
is one favorite joke. To take away neces-
sary clothes is another. To put animals
in the closet another, etc. Recently a
young woman was horribly frightened one
night after she had gone to bed by hear
ing noises in the closet; she finally arous-
ed the household by pouding on the door
of her mistress and asserting that there
must be a burglar in her room. They
found. upon Investigating, that her enemy
was a large goat belonging to one of the
children, who, upon being released, dashed
out. knocked over a pitcher, a lamp and
a table of writing paraphernaha, ana es-
caped, leaving ruin behind him-aH OF

At another house, a young man famous
for his embonpoint and audacity found
on getting up that all Of his clothes had
been distracted. But he turned the ta-
bles on the practical Jokers by his APP
pearance at the breakfast able clad in an
elaborate ball dress belonging to the host
ess whose too solid flesh" permitted his
appropriation of her gown. II seems that
a large empty closet In his room had been
used as an overflow for several of her
evening toilets, and he had therefore
made his selection, and appeared before
the delighted company in all the gorgeous
ness of a sumptuou3 feminine ball gown.
There is a curious and very sweet little
legend cherished by German children con-
corning the Easter rabbit. says the Wo-
mans Home Companion. Once upon a
time, they tell us, a nice, kind rabbit,
who was walking along q quiet wood
land road, came across a fine, large nest
filled with eggs. The poor mother-hen
had been seized by q wicked fox and
could not go back TO her darling nest,
so this kind rabbit slept all night upon
it, and when he woke in the morning
OF was Easter morning. the nest was
full Of little, downy. yellow chickens. The
chickens thought the rabbit was their
own mamma, so they cried out for some
thing TO eat, and the rabbit ran about
and fetched food for them and kept them
warm and fed until they were all old
enough to take care OF themselves. Ever
since then the rabbit has been the spe-
cial genius Of Easter-time, and this holi-
day Is not complete for German little
folk without an "Oster Hases nest" II
holds many a favor and present, serving
the same purpose that Christmas stock
ings and wooden shoes do of Christmas
time.
