Cleaning Windows.

A cloudy day is the best for wash
ing the windows, because the warm
sunshine dries the water too quickly
and the window is streaked at best. Do
not use soap in washing the windows
Clear, warm water, with a little kero-
sene or ammonia added, will give a
highly polished surface. Add one la
blespoon OF ammonia or two of kero-
sene to gallon of water. The pro-
fessional window cleaner often does
not use water at all. He first rubs the
thickest of the dirt off and then covers
the window with coating of whiting
and household ammonia, leaves it on
for fifteen or twenty minutes and then
ru5s it of with an old rag or news
paper and polishes it to shininess.

Curing Coleridre

The English schoolmaster of long
ago preferred spelling the rod to spoil
ing the boy. When Samuel Taylor
Coleridge was about 13 he went to
shoemaker and begged him to take him
as an apprentice. The shoemaker. be-
ing an honest man. returned with the
boy to Bowyer, his master, who got
into great rage, knocked Coleridge
down and turned the shoemaker out of
the grounds.
why have you made such fool OF
yourself?" he then demanded

maker" Coleridge replied, land ! hate

why so?" asked the master.
Because, to tell you the truth, sir"
said the boy, Il am an infidel."

the time.

Well, the Life Guards were sent to

answered Fred, whose good-humor was
not proof against this attempt to rep
resent his rival as hero; but there
wasn't much fighting worth speaking
of there"
They were not 70 blame for that, I
suppose" Susie was beginning; but
now Mrs. Moore somewhat abruptly
dismissed her elderly friend and rose.

by, Mr.. Musgrave; do come and see US

This was quite kindly said; but for
all that, Fred walked away feeling
rather sore and with an intuitive con-
viction that Mrs. Moore was not par
ticularly anxious for his company.
Moreover he was conscious of having
been undeservedly snubbed by Susie.
Was 1t possible that his changed for
tunes had caused him to lose her ia
yor? Or had her step-mother been
setting her against him?
Both OF these things were perfectly
possible and even. from an abstract
point of view, probable. but neither OF
them happened to be true. Had Fred
been able to look into the not very
obscure depths of the girls mind he
would have discovered that. IL she was
displeased with him, 1t was because
she was a little hurt by his recent in
explicable neglect of her But such
tremendous powers of penetration as
that are granted to few young men

DUTY of Good Appearances.

The slatternly female is a disgrace
to her sex and an object of disgust
to men, says the Chicago Journal.
Red-cheeked Susie, sweet seventeen,
may be very fetching with her sunlit
locks tousled about her shapely head.
The same Susie, fat and forty, her
faded fringe Topping unkempt at the
breakfast table, is not an inspiring
spectacle.
A good appearance does not mean
necessarily the following of the latest
fool fashion fad Frequently, on the
contrary, it means that the woman
who appears well has sufficient knowl-
edge of her personal peeuliarities as
to- complexion, figure, etc, and
strength of mind to refuse the mon
strosities of gown and hat thrust upon
her by saleswomen as the very latest.
A few lessons in harmony of color and
fitness of style, with special reference
to what should be avoided, might be
introduced with advantage into the
public schools
