! (2) Some afternoon invite a few of
your friends over to your house for
tea Now that girls are doing so
much knitting and sewing, you might
tell the girls to bring their knitting
You might even have. card party,
or have a musical entertainment of
some kind and you will find that when
you get together the girls will find
plenty to keep themselves busy. You
ought to serve some refreshments lat
er in the afternoon, such as cocoa and
cakes, tea, or something like that.
What you serve will depend on what
you can afford and what you have
time to prepare.
Answer to Faithful Wife: If you
are really doing all you can to make
your home pleasant, there is not much
more you can do in that line that
will make an impression on your hus-
bands disposition. He evidently does
not find 1t so pleasant at home or he
would not spend his evenings out
When he does come home, instead
of being huffy and cold to him, as
you say you have been. try to show
him that you love him, but do not
sympathize with his wrong doing;
show him that 1t isn't hurting you as
much as himself.
Instead of trying to make your hus-
band see his mistake. you should pay
more attention to your own attitude.
Probably 1t is this attitude of reproach
| that he dislikes. No man likes to be
reproved for what he does even
| though he knows he ISN'T doing right.
| If your reproaches haven't done any
good, stop them and try something
else.
think your idea of going away
with the children is good. If you can
take the children out once in a while
in the evening when your husband has
been staying out, he will begin to see
| that in order to keep you he must
mend his ways. At any rate, 1t won't
hurt to try it, because perhaps that
is just the reminder he needs.

AN ENGLISH BLIZZARD.
u Took q Regiment of Soldiers ts
Clear the Roads In 1885.

There was a certain Hercules en-
gine which clt a noble figure In the
English blizz ard of 1886.
To appret tate the role played by
the Hercules some idea must be
given of the effect of the storm on
other methods of travel. Fourteen
mail coaches were abandoned on as
many roads. Another was dug out
of drifts five times between Exeter
and London.
Another was buried so deep thai
1t took 300 men, principally sappers
and miners, several hours to make a
passage to the coach and rescue the
mails and passengers, while neal
Chatham the snow lay to depth OF
thirty or forty feet, the military be-
ing turned oct to the number OF
600 to clear the way.
In London the drifts were ten
feet deep, and hundreds of men and
carts were employed hauling snow
cut to the fields in the suburbs. The
markets were III a bad way. One
day only four stall holders were
able to reach a main market. Greens
which few DAYS before the storm
were being sold for threepence a
bunch at market now fetched from
fenpence to a shilling, turnips, car
rots and celery becoming equally
dear, while penny handfuls of pars-
ley realized rs. 3D., and the happy
possessor OF a bunch which he had
previously purchased for ninepence
realized for his prize no less a sum
than f1 Is. Sd.
Amid all this confusion the pio-
neer railways covered themselves
with glory by running trains almost
without interruption. There was. a
deep cutting on one line where the
snow had drifted badly, and great
numbers of people turned out to
see how the Hercules engine would
get along. They imagined, of course,
that she would be stopped, but 20
their astonishment the engine dash
ed right into the drift, Clearing
her way through apparently with
out the s'iohtest difficulty, the snow
