Do Not wait to Be Asked.

Every girl, if she be not thoroughly
selfish, is anxious to lift some of the
burden of household management
from her mothers shoulders on to her
own; but, unfortunately, many girls
wait to be asked to do things instead
of being constantly on the lookout
for little duties which they are capable
of doing.
If you would be of any real use in
the home you must be quick to notice
what is wanted-the room that needs
busting, the flowers which require
rearranging, the curtain which has
lost ring and is therefore dropping.
And then you must not only be willing
to do what is needed, but willing to
do it pleasantly without making peo-
pie feel that you are being martyred.

CLEANING MARBLE.

Stationery marble washstands often
become stained and soiled by spots
which soap and water will not take
out. 1t is good plan to wash sta
tionary washstands, when the house
is cleaned, with preparation of soap
and water and oxgall. Do not try to
clean marble with acid. If the marble
is stained with oil or grease which
cannot be removed with good soap
and water and the addition of oxgal,
a paste must be made to take out the
grease. The simplest paste is COM
posed of fuller's earth and warm
water, with small amount of wash
ing soda melted IN the water. Spread
this paste thickly over the marble,
and let it dry on. Scour it off in day
or two with strong soap and water.
If this preparation does not clean the
marble after applying it once or twice,
make stronger preparation, of equal
parts of fresh Stacked lime and wash
ing soda, and water enough to make
paste. Do not touch the mixture, as
it is very caustic. Let it dry over the
marble and remain twenty four hours,
then wash it off with an abundance of
hot water. 1t will remove the most
obstinate grease spots that have
soaked into the marble, and may be
used on any pure white marble
although it may possibly stain some
fancy colored marbles.
The best way to clean marble steps
or hearthstone is with scrubbing
brush and soap and water. If there
are stains which will not come out,
boil half pint of size with the same
quantity of pipe clay and ordinary
| Spanish whiting. This preparation
renovates the stone by filling in the
roughnesses and cracks. 1t must be
! applied smoothly with a cloth and
rubbed off with dry cloth when it is
dry. Use a very thin size, such as
paper hangers use. This is weak
glue water. An ordinary size is made
by adding eight ounces of dissolved
glue to a pailful of hot water.

The Never Ending Clothes Question.

A little girl should be able to run,
jump, climb fences and trees, and be
happy generally, without fear of
spelling or permanently soiling her
clothes, and for this reason all of her
clothing should be washable or other
wise easily and inexpensively cleaned.
No grown-up can do any work worth
doing if clothes must be be cared for
and remembered every moment.
And children can't play if they must
ever be looking out for their clothes
A loving, thoughtful mother will pro-
vide playing clothes for her children,
and have them worn a good part of
each day, too. They are as necessary
to children as are overalls to the day
laborer.
When your daughter gets to be
"big grip it is still best to dress her
simply, with one eye on comfort and
the other on beauty. Girls of twelve
and onward should be taught how to
stand and walk and sit gracefully and
easily. See that their dress does not
interfere with their physical exercise
out of doors or indoors. In choosing
costumes for girls of this age care
should be taken as to colorings. The
bright tints that children may wear
must be avoided at this "awkward
age" Subdued effects lightened up
by little brightness are best at this
time -Wo1n0njs HoYoe Communion

EncOuragemement Is Productive
of Good Work.

Perhaps there is nothing else so
productive of cheerful, helpful service
as the expression of approval or
praise of work we'll done, and yet
there is nothing so grudgingly, so
meagerly given by employers. Many
of them seem to think that CONNER
dation is demoralizing, and that the
voicing of appreciation will lead to
listlessness and the withdrawal Of en-
ergy and interest. This evinces but a
poor knowledge of human nature,
which is always hungering for appro-
baton; but how mistaken such view S
are is shown by the loyal and un-
stinted service given to those large
minded men who treat their employ
ees as members of a family committed
to their care.-Success.

STRENGTH AND ENDURAN

No person can do full justice to himself

In no ST ason of the year are they more cas-
lily exhausted than in the spring.
We need not discuss the reason for this
here. It's enough to say there is one, and
that Hoods Sarsaparil1a gives strength and

PETITION FOR PARDON,

To His Excellency Gov. L0ngino.
The undersigned petitioners would
respectfully show that William Moody
was convicted at the Jury term A. D.
1901 of the crime of manslaughteY III
said county. That there are many
mitigating circumstances, as appears
from the evidence in said case. and
some indications that he was acting
in necessary self defense. No one
saw the beginning of the difficulty,
and no one was near enough at any
time to be certain of the circum-
stances attending the same. That
Moody has been long time in prison,
including his incarceration In the
county Jail, that he has completely
broken down and become insane aud
is now in the insane asylum, and
petitioners are informed that the
physicians haye decided, that while
he might recover and remain sane If
he returned home, yet his lreturn to
the penitentiary would render him an
incurable maniac.
They further show that Moody is
an industrious and valuable negro TO
this community, and they solicit his
pardon by your excellency.
Respectfully.
