ICELESS COOLERS.

1t will come as surprise to good
many housekeepers to learn that ice,
however desirable as luxury, Is by
not means necessity for preserving
food in warm weather. A peach crate
makes very good refrigerator; or
any box of open-frame construction,
with Stats for sides instead of solid
boards, will do. Arrange it in as
many shelves as you need, or have
room for, provide door with hinges
and catch; and cover the sides, back
and door with burlap. Place an en-
amel pan on top, and from this pan
hang wicks made of strips of flannel
four or five inches wide. These wicks
start from the inside bottom of the
pan and hang over the edge of the
crate until the ends come in contact
with the top of the burlap. The re-
frigerator is to be placed outside in
the shade, but where the wind can
blow upon it, and the pan is to be
kept full of water. This water is
drawn up by the wicks and distributed
through the mesh of the burlap by
capillary attraction. The breeze
causes the moisture to evaporate, and
this evaporation reduces the tempera-
ture inside the refrigerator. 1t will
keep butter firm on the warmest days
in summer.

SWEARING.

heard the other day of a young
fellow who discovered quite unex-
pectedly that swearing does not
pay" He was engaged to young
lady, to whom he was much attached.
All was going merrily as marriage
bell, when one day the girl heard her
lover swearing at an old servant in
her fathers house. From that day
she took an aversion to him and
broke off the engagement. II am
truly sorry" she said to him, "but
my husband must be gentleman, and
gentlemen don't swear" Here was a
knock on the knuckles coming from
a most unexpected quarter. Truly,
swearing produces more kicks than
half-pence. What does the devil
pay you for swearing?" said a gentle
man to one whom he heard using pro-
fame language. "He does not pay me
anything" was the reply. well, you
work cheaply, to lay aside the char
acter of a gentleman, to infiict so
much pain on your friends and civil
people, and to risk losing your own
soul, and all for nothing? You GER
tainly do work cheaply-very cheaply,
indeed"

TEN PER.

People are like good steel. In or
der to be really worth while they
must possess temper. Necessity does
not. however, stop at possession of
temper. Control is quite as neces-
sary. Some fail to draw the line be-
tween temper and spirit. Temper is
the constitution of the mind with re-
spect to passion, while spirit is an
other name for disposition. An irrit-
able man is one who is petulant or
fretfu1, and should not be COMPOUNDED
with the individual to whom has been
given strong temper. Weak persons
are petulant, but a person with a
temper usually possesses some men,
tai strength.
When we say that one has lost his
temper, we mean that, for the time
being. he has lost control of himself,
because one who exercises self-con-
troll never allows passion to master
him. His anger may be deep-seated
and difficult to repress, perhaps all
evidence or 1t can not be concealed,
but If he fails to control it, he is not
as strong mentally as could be de-
sired.

HABIT THAT MEANS HAPPINESS

A habit of holding kindly attitude
of mind toward everybody has pow
erful influence upon the character. 1t
lifts the mind above petty jealousies
and meanness; it encircles and en-
larges the whole life. Where we meet
people, no matter if they are stran-
gers, we feel a certain kinship with
and friendliness for them, if we have
acquired the goodwill habit.
In other words, the kindly habit,
the goodwill habit, make us feel more
sympathy for everybody. And If we
radiate this helpful, friendly feeling,
others will reflect it back to us.
On the other hand, if we go through
life with cold, selfish mental atti-
tude, caring only for our own, always
looking for the main chance, only
thinking of what will further our own
interests, our own comfort, totally
Indifferent to others, this attitude will
after while harden the feelings and
the affections, and we shall become
dry, pessimistic and uninteresting.

TO WASH VALUABLE LACE.

for years in a lace factory in Brussels

both sides with thick, white double

least disturbed. Now draw over this
a little muslin cover, made the size
of the board, but an inch longer at the
open end. At the center of this open

around the board, to keep the cover
firmly closed and by which you can

Many persons who suffer from ner-
vous trouble and kindred ailments
are misjudged, called irritable, the
possessors of bad tempers, of uneven
dispositions. II their critics could ex-
perience the pain and suffering that
comes to the criticised, the probable
ity is that criticism would cease. The
sufferer from nervous Indigestion, for
instance, who always had smile and
pleasant word for every one, would
be remarkable specimen of human
ity. If all persons were obliged to
exercise the self-control the life of
such a persons demands, the world
would be much pleasanter.
Psychologists, who study the hui
man mind and it's faculties, tell us
that the influence of temper upon the
body is amazing. Lack of control
thereof shortens life, in many in
stances. To give way to temper's
untrammeled dictates frequently
causes the bursting of blood-vessels
in the brain. The less one controls
his temper, the less he is able to
master it. Gradually his ideas and
disposition change until, finally, he is
so difficult to please that others shun
him.

THE WARM BATH.

The hot bath is not alone valuable
for it's cleansing properties, but for
it's power to ease the tagged body and
brain, resting the tired muscles and
securing to the fatigued or nervous
person good nights rest.
With the really hot bath, which
should be taken not oftener than once
week, a good soap should be used.
Soap softens the horny layer of the
skin so that it may be rubbed off and
the skin left free to breathe the air.
Purity of soap is measured by the
quality of the alkali and the animal
fat or vegetable oil used in it's COM
position. A super-fatted soap is best
for the ordinary or the dry skin, while
a moist or oily skin requires a trans
parent glycerine soap which contains
a large per cent of alkali to counter
act the natural secretions. Toilet am.
monia combines alkali and soap and
Is refreshing in the bath.
Massage should follow the bath.
For these movements a massage oil
is necessary, the simplest and most
effective being pure olive oil or cold
cream. Where the skin is soft and
very sensitive it is often unpleasantly
moist, as beneath the arms. This ten
dency may be considerably alleviated
by bathing the part with alcohol and
then pressing tightly against it a
sponge, from which hot water has
been wrung.

TF ! ONLY HAD TIME"

Some young people will pick up a
of time which others carelessly throw
away, as one man saves a fortune
by small economies which others dis
dain to practice. What young man is
too busy to get an hour day for
self-improvement?
You will never find time for any
thing. If you want time, you must
take it.
If a genius like Gladstone carried
through life little book in his pocket
lest an unexpected moment should
slip from his grasp, to what should
we, of common abilities, resort to save
the precious moments from oblivion!
Nothing is worse for those who
have business than the visits of those
who have none," was the motto of a
Scottish editor.
Drive the minutes or they will
drive you. Success in life is what
Garfield called a question of mar
gins Tell me how young man
uses the little ragged edges of time
while waiting for meals or tardy ap-
pointments after his days work is
done or evening's-what opportunity
and 1 will tell you what that mans
success will be. One can usually tell
by his manner, the direction of the
wrinkles in his forehead, or the ex-
preston of his eyes whether he has
been in the habit of using his time
to good advantage or not.
"The most valuable of all posses
sions is time; life itself is measured
by it." The man who loses no time
doubles his life. Wasting time is
wasting life.
Some squander time, some invest it,
some kill it. That precious half hour
a day which many of us throw away,
rightly used, would save us from the
ignorance which mortifies us, the mar
rowness and pettiness which always
attend exclusive application to our
callings.
Four things come not back-the
spoken word, the sped arrow, the past
life, and the neglected opportunity.

Plants a comfort that will never cloy;
Every day fresh reality,

Creatures blithe with song

Thus plants love,
Tents of GOODNESS spreading out above
Wayfarers he may not live to see.

Hands that bless are blest.
Plant; life does the rest!

And his work it's own reward shall be /!

LITTLE CHILD O. MINE.

Little child O. mine and gay,
Let me sing roundelay!
In the fields the flowers fall
From the fingers of the May.
And all the laughing streams
Call the tender-hearted dreams
From out the fragrant gardens
Of my life now blossoms gray.
The bright day is rosy long
And the sunbeams swiftly throng
To kiss thy lips and warm thy cheek:
And play thy curls among.
o may the tenderness
OF the sunbeam-smiles that bless
Glad befriend thee on life's way
When a dismal song is sung!
o it's sweet to live and see
How good God watches thee,
At eventide when hushed are all
Life's busy, creeping things;
When tired hands lay down
Childhood's spotless, golden crown
Thou driftest into angel-land
Upon light, shining wings.
Little child O. mine! my prayer
That will follow everywhere
Shall safe fold thee in it's strength
And keep thy young feet Alright;
May the innocence of May
That thrills thy soul to-day
Hover round thee, little child,
In the daytime and the night!

that the people of this district are

the first duty that lies in our path is
to put ourselves in position to get

from Washington, D. c., and it is an
impossible task to educate congress
