A Perfect Home.

The most perfect home we ever saw
was little home into the sweet in
cense of whose fires went no costly
thing. A thousand dollars served as
years living for father, mother and
three children. But the mother was
the creator Of the home; her relations
with the children were the most beau
tiful we have ever seen; every inmate
of the house involuntarily looked into
her face for the keynote of the day
and it always rang clear. From the
rose or clover leaf which in spite Of
her hard housework she always founr
time to put beside our plates at break
fast, down to the story she had in
mind to read in the evening there
was no intermission Of her influence
She has always been and always will
be our ideal of a mother, wife and
homemaker. If to her quick brain,
loving heart and exquisite face had
been added the appliance of wealth
and enlargement of wide culture, here
would have been absolutely the ideal
home. AS it was, it was the best we
have ever seen.

A Beautiful Life.

A few years since there died in
England, at an advanced age, a wo-
man who had been a great blessing
in the world, but whose beginning
was most discouraging. AS a girl
she was exceedingly homely-so
homely that even her mother said to
her, "You are SO ugly, my child, that
nobody ever will care for you or love
YOU" Instead Of being disheartened,
however, by her homeliness, she said
to herself, 81 will make my life so
beautiful and such help and comfort
to others that people will love me,
in spite Of my face" So she trained
herself to be kind to every one she
met. She cultivated gent1eness of dis
position. She learned to be most I'm
selfish, always forgetting herself and
doing all she could to help Others
She visited the sick, carrying glad
ness and comfort to them and reliev-
ing their wants. She sought to give
encouragement, cheer, joy to every
one. AS the years went on, she be-
came known as the angel of the vii
lage in which she lived Everybody
loved her, and her name was spoken
in praise in every home. She did not
become beautiful in feature, save as
the light of love in her heart shone
out, TRANSPORTING her face; but her
life became beautiful

To Make Home Happy.

The road to home happiness lis said
to lie over small stepping stones. So
small sometimes are the causes of OUR
11lhappiness THAT we wonder the CON-
sequences can be SO great, says tine

tive is the determination by every
member of the family mott Ito dwell

THE HOUSEHOLD.
The Art of Arranging Flowers.

Here are five golden rules which
should be observed by Those who often
ar11ange flowers: Use plenty of foliage
PUT your flowers i'm very lightly. Use
artistic glasses. Do NOT use more than
two, or at THE most, three, different
kinds of flowers in ONE decoration
Arrange your color's Ito form a bold
CONTRAST, or, better still, Ia soft har-
mony. The aim OF the decorator
should be to show off the flowers
not the vases that contain them; THERE
fore, the simpler ones are fair pre-
ferable Ito even THE most elaborate
GLASSES for a DINNER table should bic
either white, delicate shade of green,
brown, or rose color, according Ito the
flowers arranged in them.

Earn Success.

Success supposes conditions and
preparations for 1.-THE energy, self
abnegation weight brings Drawn and
breadth and dignity, strength, wisdom
and skill. We cannot jump safely in
to success; we are likely to get hurt
and fall back disheartened to where
we belong. Some try to succeed by
jumping into their fathers shoes; but
these shoes do not fit, and causes the
youth to walk SO awkward that he
generally makes a fool of himself.
Nearly everything of real worth has
to be earned. To be appreciated and
judiciously appropriated, our profess
sions must have cost their value.
The toll and struggle and plodding
that brings gain, brings also the ma
ture experience, through discipline,
and hard knocks that make up stall
wart manhood and permanent success.

Complexion Medicine.

Many people are annoyed by the
appearance of pimples and slight skin
eruptions, which are certainly very
disfguring, if not serious. Our grand
mothers used to dose their young
folks at this time of the year with
some of the most horrible concoc-
tons ito clear the blood" Many of
these remedies seem out of the ques-
ton entirely with us, but some of
them were certainly ef6cacious and
simple. One Of these last mentioned
is oatmeal water The way to make
it is this: Put heaping tablespoon
full of fine oatmeal into a tumbler of
cold water Allow it to stand all
night and in the morning stir it up
well. Let the thickest part settle
again and then drink the clear part
This should be continued for two or
three weeks, and what it will do in
the way of clearing the complexion
is said to be remarkable.

Keep It to Yourself.

You have trouble, your feelings are
injured, your home is not pleasant,
your friends do not treat you fairly,
and things in general move unpleas-
antly. Well, what of it? Keep it to
yourself. A smouldering fire can be
found and extinguished, but when
Goals are scattered, you can't pick
them up. Bury your sorrow. The
place for sad and disgusting things is
under the ground. A cut finger is not
benefited by pulling off the plaster
and exposing it to somebody's eye.
Charity covereth multitude of sins.
Things thus covered are cured with
out a scar; but, once published and
carried to meddling friends, there is
no end to the trouble they may cause.
Keep it to yourself. Troubles are
transient; and, when a sorrow is heal
ed and passed, what comfort it is to
say: mo one ever knew it till it was
over"
