The Art of Letting Go.

There is so much to which we cling
that should be put from us entirely.
We should eXpel from our minds the
things which can not be helped, our
past miSfOrtuneS, our failures, our
wounded vanities, the unkindnesses
which we have received. 1t is not
that we must let them slip from our
mind, but we must eXpel them, using
the full force of our will to cast them
from us.
Letting our thoughts dwell upon an
unpleasant past, rObs the present and
the future of happiness that would
be ours if we would put ourselves i'm
an attitude to receive it. Life has no
dead levels. We must either advance
or go back. Anything that is a drag
or weakens our powers OF resistance
should be eXpunged from our memory
Nothing can be gained by recalling day
after day incidents that have been I'M
pleasant. Our regret for the past can
best be shown by our effort to improve
it in the present.
Learn to laugh at veXatioJs trif1es.
If we meet misfortune, let us pass it
with a smile, and hurry to greet our
coming success. If We keep our minds
filled with bright, hopeful pictures and
wholesome thoughts, those which help
onward and upward, we can make far
greater progress than by burying our
selves in retrospection.
Our daily associates in the world
may not be of our choosing. Our envi-
rOnment may not be pleasing. But
our mind can choose its own company,
can call in or dismiss any guest that it
chooses; it can wander alone i'm places
fair as was the garden of Eden. For
1.-The mind is it's own place and can
make a heaven of hell or hell of
n.'-ClaSSmate

Hot Water Cure.

the simultaneous application of hot

A Beauty Talk.

A writer in The Ladies' World gives
us some fine suggestions on the above
subject, she says:
For developing the body, there is
nothing which meets all the require
ments as fully, perhaps, as helping
mother with the washing. 1t is far
superior to rubbing skin-fOOds into the
face while mother does the washing
alone.
Our modern methods of washing adj
NIT of but little rubbing, as our grand
mothers and some of our mothers
knew it. Still. there are soiled wrist
bands and collars. and spots that will
rot yield to any other process but that
of rubbing on the board. Here comes
i'm a fine exercise for the upper parts
of the body, and it is no more eX-
haustive than tennis, besides being
useful.
The use of the wringer brings into
play and develops a suppleness of the

muscles of the waist and arms, and
employs many really graceful posi-
tiOns
For erect and graceful carriage,
what is better than carrying out and
emptying the water used in the Ope-
ration?
Then the hanging of the clothes up
on tine line-was there ever any eX-
ercise more graceful?
There are many other necessary Ope-
ratiOns about the house which use and
develop the muscles requisite to a
beautiful body. For the punching-bag
may be substituted a lump of bread
dough, adding a knowledge of the pre-
liminares which made it such.
For the complexion, removal of
black-heads, etc, try ironing the white
waists and skirts. Yes, on hot day.
But you say you will perspire. Ger
tainly. If followed by a cool bath, it
will give you the complexion we read
about and try vainly to achieve with
pomades, foods and lotions.
When your attention is drawn to-
ward Indian clubs, try beating the
rugs.
Then there is the lawn-mOwer. The
possibilities of the common life which
tend toward beauty of form and
character lie all around us. Think of
the hOmely tasks in this way, if you
cannot in the true way

minutes if desired hard. A difficulty
to be overcome when many eggs are
to be cooked at once is that the cold
eggs will stop the boiling of the water,
and it is impossible to tell when the
precise state of ''dOneness'' is reached.
70 Obviate this, cover the eggs with
warm, not hot, water and let them
stand for two minutes, then remove
to the boiling water. They should be
lowered into the water with table
spoon to prevent their cracking. A
pinhole through the shell will also
prevent it.
DREAMED EGGS.
Hard boil half dozen eggs, and re-
move the shells. Make a white sauce
as follows: Melt a piece of butter the
size of large egg in a saucepan and
stir in two tablespoonfuls of dry flour,
letting it cook till it bubbles all over:
add two cups of hot milk, stirring it
till it is thick and smooth. Cut the
eggs in half and arrange on warm
platter; pour the sauce over and serve.
This dish is one of the stock ones
used in the family of the writer in
stead of meat, and it is especially SER
viceable for dinner ON a hot summer
day.
FRENCH TOAST.
Dip stale or fresh slices of bread in
to two eggs, which have been well
beaten, and fry in lard or butter to
a golden brown. To be little more
economical you may use half milk in
stead of two eggs. This toast may
also be used as a plain dessert, the
slices being sprinkled with sugar.
Children enjoy it served in this way.

Some Egg Recipes.

A boiled egg is most digestible when
the yolk is thoroughly cooked, though
soft, and the white of cuStard-like
consistency. There are two ways Of
doing this; in one the eggs are put on
in cold water and allowed to come to
a boil; in the other they are covered
with boiling water and the dish con-
tanning them set on the back of the
stove, where the temperature will be
maintained at that point for ten min
utes. If the eggs are preferred cooked
in the usual manner, put them ill wa
ter that is boiling and let them boil
without stopping for three minutes
if a soft egg is required, four minutes
for a medium state of sOftness and ten
