A Hint to Girls.

1t was little thing, but the other day
young girl was noticed following her
callers, two young lads, into the hall as
they took their leave. She even accom-
panied them to the stoOp, this undoubt-
edly because she did not quite know how
to say goodby and dismiss them in the
parlor. There was nothing formal in
the call. which was merely a drop-in of
some schoolboys, but it would have been
a good time for that young girl to prac-
tice the little dignied conversation of
the hostess, that presently she will very
much need. A girl may be all that is
charming and companionable and cordial
and hospitable, and yet preserve the cere-
monious forms that are the necessities
of socit ercourse.-Harper's Bazaar.

Well to Know.

Oil is the best thing for cleaning zine.
Put few drops on Il cloth and rub the
zinc well.
1t is an excellent thing to take a walk
the last thing at night. if one is unable
to sleep through too great activity of the
brain.
Clean knives with a little bath brick
scraped into Il saucer and mixed with Il
little salad oil. Have the knives well
washed and thoroughly dried. Take Il
the metal briskly.
Water cress should be soaked in salted
water before being used for sandwiches
or sent to table. The most careful wash
ing in water alone is not enough to rid
it of all insect life.
Ii new tinware is rubbed over with
fresh lard and thoroughly heated in the
oven before it is used it will never rust
afterward, no matter how much it is put
in water.

encouraged to -'-n little entertain
ments. WY is that >"
It is because the majority of mothers
delight in those exhibitions, not realizing
the harm they do, and probably would
send their children elsewhere if the
school forbade such course.
| believe there is one school in this
city. the only one that know Of. that
has the courage to strand forth and do
away with that most dcporablc of all
ending to the school year, commence
ment exercises"
Such entertainments have a great deal
to answer for. They force the schools
to sacrifice real progress in preference
to supcrfcialities that never fail to
plant the seeds Of vanity. self-con-
seriousness and egotiSm in the mind Of
the child.
Surely that is false education, is it
not?
1t is merely vanity i'm q parent that
demands and enjoys such spectacle

Make Home Pleasant.

If you are a big sister, don't be too
strict with your little brothers. TRY and
be patient with your blessings and make
home pleasant You know you go to bed
later than they do, and when the house
is silent and still, just think how solemn
and sad it would be were the days as
quiet as the evenings.
If you are a plain girl and one of your
brothers has pretty sweetheart. do not
roam about the house repeating the stale
saying that is to the effect that beauty is
only skin deep.
Do not be ashamed of busting the
drawing room, darning your brothers
socks, or doing any little kindly act for
mem. If you are musical, see to it that
four performances are really meritorious
re you get into the way of wearing out
he nerves of your family instead of af-
tording them pleasure
