The Mistress of a Family
Niss Mulock, in her . admirable Look, "A
Woman's Thoughts about Women," writes
thus in the chapter bearing the above title.]
" A man has no business to meddle in the
management of the house. No business, ex
cept through hard necessity, or the saddest
incompetency on the part of others, to poke
over the weekly bills, and insist on. knowing
what candles are per pound, whether the
washing is done at home or abroad, and what
he is going to have for dinner. He who vol
untarily and habitually interferes in these
things must be a rather small-minded gentle- .
man, uncommonly inconvenient to his family
and servants. Perhaps to more than they :
since a man who is always 'meddling about'
at home is rarely a great acquisition to the
world outside.
" I once heard a married lady say, with
great glee and satisfaction : 'Oh, Mr.
saves me all trouble in housekeeping ; he or
ders dinner, and goes to the butcher's to
choose it, too; pays all bills, and keeps the
weekly accounts ; he never wants me to do
anything.' Thought I privately, 'My dear,
if I were you I should be very much ashamed
both of myself and Mr. —'
" When a house boasts of both master and
mistress, each should leave to the other the
appointed work, and both qualify themselves
rightly to fulfil the same, abstaining as much
as possible from mutual interference. A
man who can trust his wife or his housekeep
er should no more meddle with her home con
cerns than she should pester him with ques
tions about his business. No doubt countless
occasions will arise when he will be thankful
and glad to take counsel with her in worldly
cares ; while she may have to remember all
her life long, and never think of without a
gush of gratitude and love, some season of
sickness or affliction, when he filled his own
place and hers too, ashamed of no womanish
task, and neither irritated nor humiliated by
even such mean household cares.
" A lady of my acquaiutance gives it as her
sine qua non of domestic felicity, that the / I
`men of the family' should always be absent
at least six. hours in the day. And truly a
mistress of a family, however strong her af
fection fur the male members of it, cannot
but acknowledge that this is a great boon. A
house where 'papa' or the 'boys' are always
`pottering about,' popping in and out at all
hours, everlastingly wanting something, or
finding fault with something else, is a consid
erable trial to even feminine patience. And
I beg to ask my sex generally—in confidence
of course—if it is not the greatest comfok
possible when, the masculine half of the fam
ily being cleared out for the day, the house
settles down into regular work and orderly
quietness until evening ?
" Also, it is good. for them as well as fur
us, to have all the inevitable petty domestic
`bothers' go over in their absence ; to effect
which ought to be one of the principal aims
of the mistress of a family. Let them, if
possible, return to a quiet smiling home, with
all its small annoyances brushed away like
the dust and cinders from the grate—which
e~apassaul, is one of the .first requisites to
make a fire-side look comfortable. It might
be as well, too, if the master himself-Cotild
contrive to leave the worldly mud of the day
at the scraper outside his door ; however, as
these chapters do not presume to lecture the
lords of creation, I have nothing more to say
on that score.
"But she who, the minute an unfortunate
man comes home, fastens upon him with a
long tale of domestic grievances real or im
agined—how the butcher will never bring
the meat in time, and the baker keeps a false
account of loaves—how she is sure cook is
given to drink, and that Mary's 'cousin' had
his dinner off 'our' mutton yesterday :—why,
such a lady deserves all she gets: cold looks,
sharp speeches, hasty plunges into thB con
venient newspapers ; perhaps an angry cigar
—a walk with no invitation for her company
—or the club. Poor little woman sitting
crying over her lonely fire, not owning that
she is wrong, but only alp': she is very un
happy, and very much ill-used, might one
recommend to her notice one golden rule ?
`Never pester a man with things that he can
not remedy and does not understand.' Also,
for her own benefit as well as his, a harmless
rhyme, true enough of minor vexations, what
ever it may be of the greater grief it so phil
osophically disposes of :
"'For every evil under the sun
There is a remedy—or there's none:
If there is one, try and find it ;
If there isn't, never mind it.'
" And when he comes in again, honest
man perhaps a little repentant, too, there
is but one course of conduct which I recom
mend to all sensible women, viz: to put her
arms round his neck, and—hold her tongue."
STRAWBERRIES.—August and September are
favorite months to plant out strawberries,
with those who desire a crop of fruit the next
season. In making a strawberry bed, a
warm, dry spot of ground should be chosen,
with, if possible, a good loamy or clayey sub
soil. A moist, wet situation is very unfavor
able. It is best to subsoil at least two feet
deep, and if the soil is poor, let it be well
enriched with well-decayed stable manure.—
In setting out take care that the plants do not
become dry from the time they are taken up
till they are replanted, and see that they. do
not wittier afterwards. Many persons cut off
the leaves, if they are afraid of their wilting
under hot suns, but a much better plan is to
shade. Inverted 4-inch flower-pots are ex
cellent for this ptirpose ; they may be taken
off at night. The dews will so invigorate
them, that the shade will only be regaired
for a few days. Sometimes in September
they may need a good watering ; but this
should never be attempted unless a thorough
saturation of the bed is given; and in a few
days after, the hoe and the rake should be
employed to loosen and level the surface,
which the heavy watering will, in all proba
bility, have eaused to bake and become very
crusty.
Strawberries are best grown in beds about
four feet wide for the convenience in gather
ing the seed, and giving them the best of cul
tivation. About three rows in a bell, and
the plants one foot apart in the row, will be
a good arrangement.—Gardener's _Monthly.

TED FAMILY SEWING MACHINES.
JVew Styles—Prices frontsso to $125. Extra
a/large of $5 for Hemmers
495 Broadway,
730 Chestnut street,
These Machines sow from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they Hein,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
seam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sowing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to allvarieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the OnovEa & BAKER. SEWING MACHINE COUPANY
