carpet that sulcata homo. It is not so
cold aud formal to the eye as the hand
somely -llowerod Brussels that you see
in the parlor. As soon aa you put your
foot on a rag carpet, you f.-ul cn good

turally expect to hear a kttio sing, and
see 8-raa friendly cat irca her b.iok and

the man that owns a rag carpet, made
cf articles collected about the hause,
can sit right down with the carpet and
talk to it. It 1j fu'.l of pleasant remin

Scatter sassafras bark anioiig dried

To prevent the smnll of paint put a

let it erand in the room over night.
Silverware can be kept bright for
months by being placed in an air-tight
case with a good-sized piece of camphor.
A little saltpetre or carbonate of soda
mixed with the water la T,hich flowers
are placed will keep them fresh for two
weeks.
A Rood rule for the use of the differ
ent kinds of flour is to use pastry flour
whenever baking flour is used and bread
flour with yeast.
Never throw away cold potatoes as
there are so many delicious wavs in
which they may be warmed over and
mid into new dishes.
Nice table cloths and napkins should
not be allowed to become much soiled,
so that ihey will require vicorous rub
bing with soap or in hot water.
If butter is kept covered tight when
pnt in the ice chest it will not absorb the
odor of any fool lying near. There is
nothing so sensitive as butter.
To remove egg stains from silver
spoons, lake a little common salt be
tween the thumb and Cnger and rub the
stain briskly. Then wash in hot suds.
I you dip your broom into clean hot
suds once a week, then shake it till it is
almost dry, and then bang It up, or
stand it with the handle down, it will
last twice as long as it would without
this operation.
A Terrier l'rovokes a Jaguar.
Two good-sized terriers lived at the
Zoological Garden and kept the rats,
with which the place abounds, in mor
tal terror of their lives.
For some time past the large jaguar
at the "Zoo" has been keeping his eye
on them. Recently one do was pranc
irg about the jaguar's cage barking at
a great rat, as if daring him out. The
caged anfmal saw he was being tantal
ized and crouched in one corner of the
cage and patiently awaited bis chance.
It came sooner than was expected, for
the terrier, bounding past the narrow
opening at the bottom of the cage, saw
something dart foreward, and a great
yelping told plainly that the dog haa
b?eu caught. The jaguar had seized
him ty the throat, aud drawing him
close to the iron bars with Lis claws
tore open the terrier's throat and dropp
ed bis mangled remains in a pile upon
the floor. SatisGed with Lis work ti.e
jaugar resumed Lis ceaseless pace up
and down the cag, every now and then
stopping to look at the other dog, who
was shivering in a corner near by afraid
to stir.
Advantage o' rorering I'lants.
A Liu'ch or covering should consist
of m inure, as it will to saviDg of labar,
and the plants will "t the beneft of the
matter dissolved by the rains. The
covering is not intended to keep the
plants warm, as that is impossible, but
to prevent the ground from warming
too early or too suddenly. It is just as
important to mulch in those sections
where the climate is mild as it Is to do
so where the winters are severe, owing
to the alternate freezing and thawing
of the ground. If the ground ia frozen
it can be partially kept in that condi
tion by the mulch, which prevents the
plant3 from being thrown up out of the
soil, and also from beginning growth
too early in the season. In this section
tLe winter is seldom very cold previous
to January, aud the necessity fur a
mulch is greater in a mild winter than
at any other time, owing to the liabil
ity of the plants to begin to grow too
early.
Food willi the fingers.
The list of things that can be eaten
from the fingers is on the increase. It
Includes all bread, toast, tarts and
small cake, celery, and asparagus,
when served who'e, as it should be,
either hot or cold ; lettuce, which must
be crumbled in the fingers and dipped
in Bait or sauce ; olives, to which a
fork should never be put any more than
a knife should be used on raw oysters ;
strawberries, when served with the
stems on, as they should be, are touch
ed to pulverized sugar ; cheese Id all
forms except Brie or lloqaefort or
Campefort, and frnlt of all kinds ex
cept preserves or melons. The latter
should be eaten with a spoon or fork.
In the use of the Augers greater indul
gence ia being shown, and you cannot,
if you are well bred, make any very
bad mistake in this direction, especial
ly when the finger bcwl stands by you
and the napkin ia bndy.

i uiereu oia blouse, a pair of mouldy
boots full of holes, and a disreputable
burlesque of a hat. Thus attired, he
wia.ea up to one of the most ariRtr.,.r-f
ic cafes in Paris, and seating him.if f
a table, called for a cup of coffee. The
wauer. as was natural, did not care
about so suspicious a looking customer
before hs was assured that payment
"uu u loriLcoming, so he told the
i rince mat he must mv Jr. oo,.
Upon this, his Highness pulled a bundle"
ui wna notes out of Lis pocket, and
picking out one of considerable value
told Lim to take the rric f
out of it and bring back the change. The
mu immediately went in search of the
proprietor of the cafe, who, when he
uau ueara me facts of th aa
pe coffee to be served, and at the same
i:me sent lo the nearest police station
for a aetqent tfc villc. Th p,m.
of course arrested and taken before a
cumtnissary of police, lie announced
his raLk and told his reasons for as
6uminK such an unprincely costume.
The authorities were obdurate at firet
but Cnally they consented to send the
Prince under escort to the Imperial club
where the gentleman with whom the bet
had been made proved his identity, and
paid his Highness the money he had
fairly woe.
Vieuxtemps, thewell-knywn violinist,
used to tell a strange story of a wager
which he averred be had really witness
ed whilst on a visit to London. It was
to the effect that one day as he was
walking across London bridge, a poor
wretch jumped up on the parapet and
leaped down into the river. There was
at once a rush of eager spectators and a
voice shouted : "I'll bet he drown m
"Two tO One he'll swim nehnro 1
"Done !" Meanwhile Vieuxtemps had
hastened to get a boat and was rowing
with a waterman to the rescue of the
unharpy creature, who was floundering
about, and just managing to keep him
self afloat. As they reached him awS
were preparing to pull him into the
boat, ther was a roar from the bridge :
"Leave him alone thera is a bet on I"
The waterman immediately lay on his
oars, refusing to make any further at
tempt to save the drowniog ran, and
Vieuxtemps saw Lim sink before Lis
very eyes.
Oue of the wildest bets ever made
by a physician of the ancitnt world
named Ascleplades. He wagered
against fortune that he would never be
ill during his whole life, under the pen
alty of losing the ri-puUtlon he had ac
quired of being the most famous physN
cian of his time. Absurd and impious
fas was this presumption he won his
wAptr, altnough he could not eDjoy it,
for, at a very tdvanced period of life,
he died from the effects of a fall.
Some years ago, a gentleman made a
heavy bet that he would stand for a day
ca London bridgd with a trny full of
sovereigns fresh from the mint which
i.e would be unable to dispose of at a
teucy apiece. A nursemaid bought
one to quiet a crying child ; no men
weie disposed of.
Woman.
Bob Burdett asserts woman's super
iority. He, however, frankly confess
es that she cannot sharpen a pencil, and
outside of commercial circles she can
not tie a parcel to make it look like
anything but a cracked cross section of
chaos, tut land of miracles, see wLat
she can do with a pin ! There are some
women who can pin a glass knob to a
door. She can't walk so many miles
around a billiard table with nothing
to eat and nothing (to epeak of) to
drink, but she can walk the rloor all
night with a iretful baby without goine
sound asleep the first half hour. She
can ride Cve hundred miles without go
ing into -a sleeping car to rest (and get
away from the children.)
She can go to town aud do a weari
some day's shopping, and have a good
time with three or four friends without
drinking a keg of beer. She can enjoy
an evening without smoking half a
dozen cigars. She can endure the tor
turing distraction of a honsa full of
children all day, while her husband
cuffs them a howling to bed before he
has been home half an hour, bhe is
the salt of the church, the pepper of the
choir, and the life of the sewing society
and about all there is of a young ladies1
school or a nnnaery. A boy with a Bis
ter is fortunate, a fellow with a cousin
is to be envied, a voung man with a
sweetheart is happy, and a man with a
wife is thrice blessed more than all.
Home Eules for the Young.
Be prompt at every meal hour.
Shut every door after yon, and with

Let your Crat, last and best conHJact

Don't make a practice of shouting,

Xever interrupt any conversation,
but wait patiently your turn to epeak.
Carefully clean the mud and snow off
yonr boots before entering the house.
Tell of your own faults and misdo

Never sit down at the tabla or In the

Never reserve yonr good manners for

Always spank kindly and politely to
