Motherhood.

Motherhood is the noblest ideal of
woman The little girl whose doll is
her delight is mother at heart before
she can walk or talk. The attribute
remains and strengthens. In her wo-
manhood she is mother not only to
her children, but to her entire family.
To all essential ends she is Il mother
to her husband himself. Very likely
to the man she refused to marry she
promised to be sister, but to the man
she did marry she became Il mother
without promising. Something, indeed,
of this maternal tendency enters into
all her affections. into all her relations

Effect of Tight Clothing.

Very red hands are often caused by
tight stays, snug sleeves or pinching
shoes. Choking collars will occasional
ly be the cause. The body must be COM
fortably dressed. No matter how triv-
ial the discomfort, the effect will show
In the facial expression. \ hairpin that
has gone into the scalp an inch or two
will make the most angelic face wear a
weary and worried look. Strange, isn't
it? There is many a beauty i'll that can
be traced to some silly, useless little
vanity. Any one who makes it a rule TO
eat food that is highly spiced or over
stimulating is likely TO be troubled
with a very ford complexion or coarse
red hands. Crisp green vegetables, lean
broiled meats, a diet that is generally
simple and substantial, is the first law
of all identifying.

Crystal gazing is still popular. but
the very latest thing in use is a black
mirror, in which the sibyls say they
can see many things. These little
black mirrors come from India, where
spot of ink has always been favor
tie vehicle for divination. The native
boy who has the second sight is told
to look fxedly at Il spot of ink. which
is poured into his hand. The black
mirror is said to be every bit as good
as the ink, and it is certainly more
clearly. 1t is made of piece of black
glass set in a wooden frame and is
small enough to be held inside the
hand.-London Chronicle.

culation of air in the bedroom. and for
the purpose of illustration we select an
ordinary metal bcdstead.
For the successful carrying ont of
the design a round piece of wood five
inches III diameter and two inches
thick is required.
In the center of this a hole must be
bored through large enough to take a
round piece of wood of length to suit
the width of the drapery to he used. \
portion of an ordinary broom handle
will answer the purpose. This is fixed
to the wall by four nails at the desired
height above the head of the bed. 1t
would be as well If the holes for the
nails were bored in the wood first. The
drapery is thrown over this and loop
ed back to the wall as depicted. This
is an extremely simple and effective
drapery ana can be made in almost
any light material.

In Wearing Wells.

"How many women are persistently
running the bloom of their lips and
the contour of checks and all pleasant
expression by pinning their wells too
tightly across the face" said woman.
"Obserye the women on the streets,
and you will see any number of them
at frequent intervals 'pouting' out their
lips so as to push off the pressure of
the tightly drawn veil and all uncon-
scious that the peculiar action has
grown into a fixed habit or that it
makes a perfect caricature of their

Bathing.

Bathing, like eating and sleeping and
exercising, should be done regularly.
1t should also be regarded rs a pleas
ure and n luxury. The girl who thinks
of a bath as small children cOntem-
plate washing dishes or doing some
other disagreeable task does not get
the real, full, jolly benefits Of the tub.
Those who find the daily bath restful,
stimulating and pleasant cannot get
nlong without it.

ing about my household duties,' many
women assert. but that is the greatest
mistake possible. Under ordinary cir
cumstances a few sets of muscles are
called into activity, and the mind at
the same time is fully occupied.
For physical exercise to be helpful
the mind should be at rest \ walk Of
twenty minutes duration in the open
air is an absolute daily necessity and
should be at a reasonably brisk pace.
Deep breathing should be practiced on
these walks until it becomes fixed
habit.

The moral development of the child
begins almost as soon as its mental,
and the two march hand in hand. The
home is the place where correct moral
principles should be first instilled in
the mind of the child. and neglect of
this may mean endless suffering for
parents and child. Too often this is
left to the servants, relatives or the
teacher later The parent who can
neglect this side Of the child's develop
ment and trust it to somebody else is
not worthy of the responsibility that
has been conferred upon her. The neg
lect is not altogether intentional, but
more often due to lack of energy and
forethought. The work does not begin
early enough, and the little mind gets
warped before the lessons are taught

Benches.

Benches are quite craze in home
furnishing just now. Where a room
has no mantel and has plain, quite
good sized wall space to make fea-
ture of a high backed bench is very
fashionable and proves a very effective
substitute. Have a shelf fastened on
brackets above the high back of the
bench for bric-a-brac, throw a rug on
the floor in front of it, and, with sew
eral consistently covered down cush-
ions, the result is quite charming and
often saves the entire effect of a room.

The Wash Boiler.

Many people complain that the boil
er rusts and iron molds the clothes.
This may be entirely prevented by rub

is not wasted, as it all goes into and
helps the first filling of the boiler next

Mixing Batter.

A homely suggestion, but one of great
service to the woman who cooks, is to
use wire egg beater when mixing

the flour and pour the liquid in thin

will be lighter and better in every way.

Some Good Remedies For Wrinkles.

One of the best preventives for wrin-
kles is to learn facial repose. Keep the
body so well nourished that the face
will share in the general well being,
giving evidence to this by its plump
ness and lack of angularity. Then it is
important to keep the teeth in good
condition, so that there will be no sag
ging in of the cheeks where teeth are
missing. Massage for the face is like
exercise for the rest of the body, and if
used for the purpose of toning up the
muscles it is beneficial. The general
direction of the strokes on the face
should be upward and outward in or
der to lift up and strengthen the fall
ing muscles.-Ladies' Home Journal

Blackburn wasn't There

Last week it was announc

God chose to afflirt the peo-
pie CT this State by sending
him to Congress) had beenin
vited to speak at the Lincoln

Union Club in Baltimore and
that he would respond. Those
who knew him.never doubted
for a moment thnt.he would
be on hama to speak il those
who managed the affair didn't
have any more sense than to
let him.
We'll, the event was on
Wednesday evening the l 9th.
A StatesviIle man who is an
admirer of Epluribus called
mt The Landmark Office to
get the..Bal,inore Sun of the

pluribus's picture 10 the Sun
and fondIy believed that his
n a m e, like Ben Adham 8,
wonld lead all the rest. But
10 and behold! Epluribus's
name was not among t h e
names OF those who spoke at
the Lincoln birthday ban

was not even in the list of in .
