TELL ME, We WINGED WINDS.

Tell me, ye winged winds
That round my pathway roar,
Do We not know some spot
Where mortals weep no more?
Some lone and pleasant dell,
Some valley in the west,
Where, free from toll and pain,
The weary soul may rest?
The loud wind dwindled to whisper
low,
And sighed for pity as it answered
NO"
Tell me, thou mighty deep,
Whose pillows round me play,
Know'st thou some favored spot,
Some island far away,
Where weary man may find
The bliss for which he signs,
Where sorrow never lives,
And friendship never dies?
The loud waves, rolling in perpetual
flow,
Stopped for a while, and sighed TO
answer, NO"
And thou, serenest moon,
That with such lovely face
Dost look upon the earth,
Serene in nights embrace;
Tell me in ali thy rounds
Hast thou not seen some spot
Where miserable man
May find a happier lot?
Behind cloud the moon withdrew in
woe
And voice, sweet but sad, responded
mo"
Tell me, my secret soul,
o, tell me, Hope and Faith,
Is there no resting place
From sorrow, sin and death?
Is there no happy spot
Where morta1s may be blest,
Where grief may find balm,
And weariness rest?
Faith, Hope and Love, best boons to
mortals given,
Waved their bright wings and whis-
pered, Eyes, in heaven!"

SUGGESTIONS FOR
THE HOUSEWIFE.

Graham bread and brown bread are
both excellent for sandwich purposes
and raisin bread, with lots of raisins
in it." is a welcome change.
A teaspoonfuI of lemon juice in a
cupful of tepid water will remove all
stains from nails and skin and loosen
the cuticle better than sharp instru-
ment.
Round jelly cake pans make excel
tent pot covers by turning upside
down and placing in center a small
wooden knob, obtainable of any gro
Ger. Two can be bought for five
cents.
New linen for working upon should
be rubbed over with a dry cake of
soap. This will render the fabric
soft. so that drawing threads of en-
broidery upon it will be much facili-
tated.
While it is advisable to pack wa
ter bag fat. occasionally there is ne
cessity for rolling it. Ii SO. it is well
to lay a piece Of cloth or paper over
the bag first. then there will be no
rossible danger Of the sides of the
bag sticking together.
Carrots will make delicious pre-
serves. Take thTee-quarters of
mound of suar- to a pound of carrots
and sufficient water to make a strip,
and boil until the preserves are thick
A little ginger or lemon should be
added to flavor.
To use cold halibut or other white
fish. remove the bones, flake it and
arrange it in layers in bread crumbs
and seasoning, in buttered baking
dish. Cover the top with buttered
crumbs, turn in hot milk to moisten
sufficiently, sprinkle grated cheese
over and bake.
Gold rings. brooches and other ar
ticles of jewelry that are set with
precious stones can be cleaned with
warm water and a white soap and a
very little ammonia. Use a soft old
tooth brush to get in between the
setting and the stone. For rings set
