How to Clean Ribbons.

The woman who does not know
how to take care of her clothes may
easily spend small fortune keeping
them clean. Nothing soils more cas-
lily than the pretty sashes now so
much worn. 1t is not hard to clean
them if one has glass fruit jar
about half full Of gasoline. Put the
ribbons In it, screw on the cover and
leave 1t a couple of hours, or over
night Then remove the ribbons, dry
them in the open air so as to 'eradi-
cate the smell of gasoline, and smooth
them, If necessary, with a warm iron.
Ribbons of all kinds and colors can
be put into the jar at once and after
the dirt has settled to the bottom the
gasoline can be poured off and kept
for future use. White ribbons may
be washed in suds of soft water and
pure soap and instead of being ironed
they may be rolled, while still damp,
over a wide card or piece of paste
board wrapped in muslin and placed
under heavy weight. The ribbon
looks fresher when treated in this
way than if it is ironed.

The Old Farm.

The old farmhouse. / see 1t again:
In its low dark caves the twittering wren
Is nested as long ago;
And / breathe once more the south winds
balm,
And sit and watch in the twilight's calm,
The bats fit to and fro.
The white cows lie at the pasture bars
And the dairy cool with Its tins ana jars
Is stored with curds and cream;
There's somebody putting the things 10
right. -.
And through the window see the light
From the tallow candle CLEAN.
The garden is rich with its old-time
bloom,
And / catch, in fancy. the faint perfume
OF blossoms dank with dew.
And over 1t all Is the starlit dome.
And round about 1t the peace OF home
How II all comes back to view!
The night wind stirs in elm and oak.
And up from the millpond comes Inc
crOak
OF the bullfrog's rich bassoon;
There peeps with u tremulous, shiverins
The rim of a CRESCENT moon.
1t all comes back in the dusk of time.
With the mournful cadence and SVEN OF
rhyme
That is half remembered still
Like a measure from some lorgot'ei
strain,
That hauntingly comes and fees again,
And under a dusky twilight sky
1t, mingling, floats with the plaintive cry
OF the desolate whip-poor-will.

The mode will develop satisfactorily
in any of the dress materials in either
cotton or wooden stuffs. A pretty de-

braid or piping of contrasting color.
Another feature to be considered is in
making wash frocks. The bertha may
be taken off and Numbered, thus fresh

Cashmere, albatross, silk, cheviot,

In Paris the fashion in feet has
changed. The Spanish foot, once the
rage. has now gone out of fashion
and is found fault with for its thick
LESS. North and South American
feet are looked upon as being nearest
perfection, The shape is generally
rather long in proportion to Its width
and the instep is highly arched. How
ever, the excessively pointed toe is be-
ing discarded in Paris, as elsewhere,
and the fashion is actually to wear a
shoe which has the natural shape OF
the foot. The knife blade point has
vanished, not only from walking shoes
and morning top boots but from the
evening slipper.

whitewashine a Poultry House.

Whitewash needs to be we'll made
to do its work effectually; too often
it comes off in flakes, once the house
is dry, If the woodwork is touched.
Finely Stacked lime should be dis
solved in hot water, making the lime
as thick as possible; add a little soft
soap and some paraffin, and we get a
whitewash that will kill the lice and
stick to the woodwork. 1t should be
applied hot, the walls of the poultry
house being first swept down to clean
them of cobwebs and dirt, and the
perches and nest boxes removed.
Dabbing the walls with thin mixture
Of lime and water does little or no
good. The perches and nest boxes
should also be treated to a coat or
whitewash; the work should be done
in the morning, so that by nightfall
the house and perches and nest boxe>
are dry again.
