THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C. itTle ;4,ljoitseiteeper. 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.
