Carpets may be brightened by dusting with a dark flannel mop. Egg stains can be removed by rubbing with common table salt. Hub oiled furnituie with a woolen cloth saturated with oil. stains on wood can be removed with strong vinegar or salts of lemon. Leather chair seats may be revived by rubbing them with well-beaten white of Sandpaper will whiten ivory knife hardies that may have become yellow with age. White paint that has become discolor ed may be nicely cleaned by using a lit tle whiting in the water for washing. A biilliant black varnish for iron stoves and fireplaces is made by stirring ivory-bUck into ordinal y shellac var nish. A good cement for china is ordinary carriage varnish. If you put together neatly the fracture will be hardly per ceptible, and is not affected by water. Galvanized iron pails are not desira ble receptacles for drinking water. The zinc coating is quickly affected by the water, forming a poisonous oxide of zinc. For cleaning brass belonging to ma hogany furniture use either powdered whiting or scraped rotten-stone, mixed with sweet oil, and rub on with a cha mois skin. A window open a alight distance both top and bottom, and a chimney draught also open, are the only sure ways of keeping rure air in a sleeping room who e doors are closed. Vinegar is better than ice for keeping fish. By putting a little vinegar on the Gah it will keep perfectly well even in very hot weather. Fish is often im proved in tlavor under this treatment. To prevent polished steel from rusting after cleaning, and when not iu use, take a cloth, with a very little sweet oil on it, and wipe the articles over po as to slightly but evenly oil the surface. Iron rust is readily removed by equal parts of common salt and cream taitar moistened with water and applied to the stained spots and placed in the sunshine. Moisten as it becomes dry for two or three hours. To make nut cake, take three eggs, one and one-half cup of butter, one-half cup of ini'.k, two and one-half cups of fl.ur, one and one half teaspoonfuls f baking-powder, one cup of the meats of any kind of nuts. The following is recommended as one one of the best cures for a cold : One ounce paregoric, one ounce spirits cam phor, two ounces castor oil, and three ounces of molasses. Shake well and take a tables xionful three times a day- Those who grow orchard grass should remember that it is very early. It should be cut or eaten before the seed-stalk be comes hard. Thus treated it can be cut oftrner than any other grass, and when well seeded on rich ground will make an astonishing amount of feed per acre. The following will give satisfaction for cleaning cloth : Take half an om c each of glycerine, alchohol and sulphu ric ether, two ounces of aqua ammonia, half an ounce of powdered castile soap, and add w ater enough to make one quart of the mixture. Use with brush or sponge, and rinse with pur6 water. Stuffed potatoes : Choose some large potatoes, peel them, cut a small piecu off the top of each, and scoop them out care fully with a knife and fill them wi:h sausage meat ; replace the top pieces. Grease a baking pan with butter and lay the potatoes side by side in it, with a little lump of butfer between each ; bake them in a hot oven. A very delightful and easilyfprepared dessert is one of bananas aud whipped cream. Cut the bananas into small slices, and over this jour cream, beaten till it is very stiff. Do not sweeten the cream until after it is whipped, and then ase the pulverized sugar. Always fla vor with a little sherry or brandy. Five bananas and a pint of cream makes an ample dessert for six people. Serve in colored dish if possible. If one has no servant make this just before going to the table, and set aside on the ice ; otherwise, do not let your cook begin it until after you are seated at the table. To make snowflake cake take one cup of butter, three cups of powdered sugar, one gill (half cup) of sweet milk, four cups of flour and the whites of nine eggs. Mash fine enough soda to make one level teaspoonful, and add it to the flour ; also, add three scant teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar. Sift three times. Cream the butter, add the sugar gradu ally, then the milk, next the flour, and last, the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff froth. If the cake seems too stiff to beat easily use part of the whites, putting in alternately a spoonful of flour and a little of the whites, but reserving the greater part to add after the flour is all in and thoroughly beaten, as it des troys the lightness of eggs to stir the cake much after they are in. Bake in layers and use any filling desired. We would educate the girls in such a way that they can step beyond the walls of their homes and make themselves useful. They should be made familiar with horticulture in all its deparments; bee keeping can be made very profitable ; the care and rearing of poultry are with in their scope, and scores of other useful accomplishments which women educa ted in all these things, can earn enough to hire all be help she needs, both in doors and out, aud often bring still more to the Tamily treasury than her husband cau from his farm, besides the comfort, and luxuries thus obtained from her en terprise ; and what is of vastly more value to her and her household, she will get the sunshine and open air, retain perfect health and reason, live a long and useful life, rear her family in com fort, who, and the world, will rise up and call her blessed. Does this seem like an idle dream ? Those who are Interested in the coming generations of women who will live upon the farm, can I?ave no more enduring monuments to their memories than a school well estab lished for their education in all those things that will make women something more than mere drudges er machines m-tke them noble, useful women in the highest, .truest wise.

A scrofulous condition is often hereditary, but bad diet, too free use of fat meats, bad air, want of sunshine and nourishing food will induce it. Some people are troubled vnl'n scrofulous swelling of the glands, and with ulcers and kernels, which may cause very little pain ; others may have in ward scrofula, scrofula of the lungs, scrofula of the spleen, scrofula of the kidneys, and scrofula cf the bones.

The fart is, that the remedy acts directly on these organs, cleansing them from all irritating sub stances and regulating their action. Taken in connection with Athlophoros Pills this is, without exception, the most valuable kidmy and liver remedy in the world, and will ei ir" a large proportion of those who have the--' diseases.

GrolosMsis claim it h.it- required tweui-five millions of ;.is to acquiie its present external form of soiidir.y. and that duiine this period the mountains were formed the hollows of the sfiis made by a sort of wrirkling of the surface as the globe of t:quid fire and heated yases contracted to its uresenl hhalie. Accoidiilir to this :a.... ........ . idea, t be solid crust of Hie earth exteDds down from teu to furiy miles, there be ing beoealh that a t:r awr or less thick ness of plaotic malt-rial, from melted ruck, eic under high pressure, while the crust of the earth is all the time in a hit$h state ot tension, from the gradual cooling or li e interior, causing cavities, and allowiiiK the superincumbent earth (O riowd down cinaer lo its heated core. "Another t iimry is that the access of wa:rr, i.y pei cUliou ilnough the sur face of the earth, to these subterraneous ovens, it is thought, may in some cases cause explosions, dislocating vast quan- tlties Of ma'-r-Ilal, xtnl perhaps by Open ing communication with the still bolter P irtiOll yet lower down, be the Cause Of the most destiuctive volcanoes. "These explanations, while being to a small extent h pothetical, accord with I aH that is known by acknowledged au- j thorilies. Another significant fact is j that they afford th best theory yet ad- ; vanced to account for the Charleston earthquake, which has agitated the minds of people all over the globe." The geologist, waxing warm to his subject, insisted that have hardly ! mnde a pin-scratch upon the crust of the i earth. The further we go down the ! warmer it Is. An illustration of this is supplied in the fact that the artesian weiln supplying the city of Paris from d eih of nearly eighteen hundred feet yield water of eighty-two degrees Fah renheit and the lower levels of the Com siock mines have almost uriform tem pera: ure of one hundred degrees Fah renheit. "It is estimated the heat increases at the rate of one degree for every fifty feet, ; nd this would give a temperature to melt the hardest rocks in less than ten miles. On this theory the present volcanic aud eaith quake regions of the globe are located along the axis of those supposed wrinkles or corrugations from the contraction of tne crus-, thought to be at present in the state of greatest tension. The most marked of these are down the east coast of Asia, including the Japan and Philippine islands, and extending to Java, where the great earthquake of occ urred. Another niso extends down the Pacific coast of North and 8 uth America, the manifes tations of which have been very light in the northern part since the commence ment of historic timrs, but oi whose presence in South America we have had naiy (linking evidences. r.bensbnrK ( rnion R.

Yes, my eon, there are rrn who, la the morning of their lives, tz- brightest, strongest, bravest days tbey have to lire, go through various courses, and come out reformed, and all right at last. There are some men who do this. Occe in a while yon will find one and you think you will do just as he did. Bat the hundred or the thousand mea who started in with him and never got through! The swimmers whD plunged into that Turbulent Jsea of d!sipate4 recklessness with, him, and never gainel the shore again but went Cmn In lbs combing billows and the yeasty break ers ! How about them? Arn't yob more than likely to be one ot tLe multi tude, than you are to be the exception ? I tell you, my hey. ten young fellows of your ape may en-irk together in the prodigal business, with good capital and the usual stock of red paint for munici pal decorative purposes ; their bands are steady, their braids are clear, their hearts are brave, and they are ambitious and hopeful and earnest ; they only want ta have their racket and see the town be fore they settle down to bard, steady work. They are not going to be drunk ards. They're all right ; they don't believe in this sort of thing at all, but they are young, and it's quiet on the farm with nobody but old folks and the elder brother, and they want to travel and see the world a little before thev be come good citizens, props to society, and pillars of the church. And by and , by. when the state and society and the , church wants them and needs them, we look for the ten and they are not found, returning to give glory to God for mercy and saving strength and cheering grace, save the stranger, the Samaritan. And we ask, "W here are the nine ?" My dear noy, there is more hope for i the stranger, forthestrejt waif, born in ! the haunts of vice and walking in its I ways all hiB life, than there Is for the 1 yOUng man Who, born in the light and 1 ,,v , - . , . . j taught in the way of uprightness, turns his back deliberately upon wisdom and virtue, and intelligently makes vice his choice. The stranger, charmed with purity and health and cleanliness so new and beautiful to him, comes back ; but the nine, my son ? j Now, my boy. be sensible in this rcat- ter.
