MAKE MENDING EASY.

The hest possible way to keep spools of thread and nending cotton is on a set of pegs that Will fit into the hole in the middle of the spool or abll. You can buy these, though the spool holders of fered for sale usually have only three or four pegs You should have at least d dozen. A good homemade device is to get a narrow. smooth beard, perhaps If teen inches long and three or four inches wide. This you may make smooth by hn- ishing it with enamel paint. In this you should drive long, heavy nails an inch and a half apart You might drive two rows of these if your board is wide enough Drive them just far In enough to make them secure. On these nails you can place your threads and mending cot. tons.
 A few hours more would be sufficient time to devote to making an excellent mending paraphernaila with convenient place for keeping mending needles, scis sors. tapes, buttons and the various oth CT essentials of mending.

THoucHTFuLc CHILD

Even very little children should be taught by their mothers to be care ful of their clothing saving 1t from tears and soiling as much as possible Again each child should be taught to hangup his garments when retiring at night-to hang up their face towels to put away their shoes, toys and all other articles which they use and are within their reach of putting away
 Children should be taught to use a toothbrush and comb when young.
 If the children are taught these du- ties you will see how much it will save mothers steps and form a good habit in the child.

MInDrw ON LEATHER GOODS.

Any leather article is almost certain to mildew If kept in warm, damp, dark place such as closet, cellar or stable. The simplest way to prevent mildewing is to keep the leather in a well ventilated dry, well lighted place, preferably one exposed to the sunlight Mildew cannot make much headwsy, in the sunshine. When mildew develops it should be washed off with soap and warm water. or simply wiped of with a moist cloth, drying the leather well afterwards. These simple measures are better than the use of preparations to prevent the growth of mildew.
