A STITCH IN TIME.

Even the prudent and tho good
have before now hesitated to ex-
plain their mutual differences
and have dweIt in silence upon
their imaginary grievances until
circumstances have become so
entaneled that in that critical
juneture, when calm explana-
ton would have saved all par
ties, an understanding was inn
possible. And thus il domestic
confidence had been earlier ss-
tablished between them, il. love
and kind forbearance had nu-
tualIy animated and expanded
their hearts, it might not, per-
haps, even yet have been too late
to save them.--Goethe.

GOOD THINGS TO KNOW.

Stove polish mixed with vinegar and
Il small bit of sugar will give additional
and more lasting luster.
To take stains from hands use half
cupful OF coarse cornmeal ana one cup
full OF strong vinegar. Wash and rub
the hands well in this; rinse in warm
water.
Before beginning to peel onions
grease your finger tips literally with
butter or lard or dripping. Not a trace
OF odor from the onion viii cling to
your hands.
Save colored Irvine that comes in
around parcels, etc. Crochcted with a
coarse crochetinG pin it will make lit
tie mats, with scalloped borders, useful
for hot dishes, etc.

The others walk solemnly round the
chairs till the leader gives three quick
taps with her stick on the floor, when
