WHOLESOME MOTHERHOOD
A Chapter of Advice to H others aad
Daughter That's Worth Mudyiag.
From the Home Queen.
I asked a sweet little girl of touryear
what she was going to be when she
grew up. She answered, looking admir
ingly towards her own mamma. "Just
a, mother." Half unconsciously the
little maid expressed a whole volume In
those few words; and yet how few wo
men realize what they are taking urou
themselves when they undertake to be
come a wife and mother.
No one has a rlKht to do this without
special preparation and knowledge. A
sincere and careful study of the duties
and resiHinsibtlities one is about to as
sume should precede the assumption of
these relationships. It Is due to the
man one is to many It Is due to the
child thut is to be born, that the wife
and the mother should avail herself of
every legitimate source of wisdom and
of strength.
Some one Inquired of the lute Dr.
Oliver Wendell Holmes. "When should
the culture of the child begin?" The
great scientist and philosopher an
swered, "A hundred years before It is
born." Unfortunately for our offspring,
we cannot turn back the wheel of time
to that extent: but we can ourselves
begin so the right story may be told
a hundred years hence.
It is a perpetual marvel that women
without this special preparation fur
their profession have done so well; out
how much better they might have done
if they only hnd known more to begin
with. As It is. they leain the. art of
housekeeping at the husband s expense,
often at the expense of both his pocket
and his stomach. They learn the duties
of maternity at the expense of their
own health; and often, too, of their own
life. They learn to rear their children
at the cost of a bitter experience, and
at the loss of a large proportion of
them, many of them dying in early in
fancy. NO EXCUSES FOR IGNORANCE.
No woman who esplres to the dignity
of wifehood has a right to be ignorant
of the practical duties of a well-ordered
household. She has no right to shun
her own kitchen, or to be unlearned In
the chemistry of cooking. How can she
direct stupid, and careless and ill
trained servants in a science of which
she herself knows nothing?
Americans, as a Glass, are ashamed
of domestio service, and are willing to
grant Its monopoly to a set of incom
petent bog-trotters Imported for the
purpose. To their stupendous ignoranos
and tender mercies we entrust the se
lection and preparation of our dally
food and the cleanliness of our prem
ises. "Fitthy" Is the word which most flt'.y
describes the part over which they rulo
supreme.
The teacher of a certain female acad
emy, not far away, makes her boast
that she knows no culinary art except
to make molasses candy! Fortunately
she has never succeeded in catching a
husband, else he would soon be sur
feited in sweets; but what an example
she makes of herself to the young ladles
of her class. According to their respect
for her, they despise housework.
She teaches tham accomplishments,
appearances, drawing, dancing, dress
ing, and conversation. Every year she
graduates a set ol paie-iaceu, gnia.i
walsted. histoid young creatures whom
she deems "finished" In brala and
body. Far better would it be for their
future husbands and for the human
race if they were never begun. All these
thinirs have their lawful place; but If a
girl's education must be confined either
to this or to some goou oooxing soaooi,
we would certainly prefer the latter.
Of all kinds of trades it is expected
that one will serve some sort of appren
ticeship, ull, save these, the most Im
portant of all those of wife, and moth
er, and the household nut-en. The mer
est chit of a girl has no misgivings
about her qualilloations for such a po
sition the moment It Is offered to her.
What wonder that disaster, divorce or
death often follow the bridal hour!
A young clergyman, fascinated by
the radiance ol youtn anu Deauty. mar
ried a woman of eighteen summers.
When he afterwards found she did not
know how to wind a clock, nor scarcely
how to tell the time of day by It, he
was so disgusted that their wedding
ended in tragedy and a life-long mis
ery. The girl wife had spent years ot
study in music, and in foreign lan
guages, but not one month in fitting
herself for domesticity.
What kind of wisdom has such an un
tutored, undisciplined woman? Whut
kind of wisdom has she wherewith lo
make a home?
When discomfort and disease conies
In at her door and steals through her
house, her husband's love and respect
will surely lly out of the window.
Lately we have noticed Heverul ad
vertisements culling for "a mother's
help." Some one willing to assist in
Ihe home instruction and care of the
children, and the lighter duties of
housekeeping; in short, some one to
supplement the weary mother.
THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
This Is a step in the right direction.
It would not only relieve the over-bur
dened matron, but be a valuable means
of Instruction and preparation fur the
unmarried young woman.
Did you ever notice how many moth'
ers are invalids before they are thirty
and broken down, wrinkled and prema
turely old by the time they have reach
ed the age of forty?
It Is not a woman's fault If she Is not
born handsome and strong; but It Is
lurgely her own fuult, and that of her
education, if she does not attain to
some measure of beauty and strength
by the time she hus reached middle
lire.
Yet, alas! how closely marriage and
Invalidism have become associated in
tr ptihiir mind.
'i'iic Frenchman Nlchelet,' speaking of
American women, says. "She Is an ex
qtilsite invalid, with a perennial head
ache and a tendency toward -nervous
prostration.
If women only knew it they could
cnanee an this.
In the first place the girl should studv
her own organization and her special
constitution. Anatomy and Dhvslokiirv
should become familar sciences. . She
will then know better than to compress
ner cnesi wun corsets; she will know
better than to decrease her breathing
capacity, and to reduce the nower of
the thoracic muscles. If you confine
any part or it bo it cannot perform Its
junction, mat part becomes weak and
comparatively useless.
"I put on my corsets the moment r
leave my bed." a lady told me "I
should faint away if I did not."
The muscles of that part had so long
been Idle, so long been bound In splints
of whalebone and steel, they had he
come weak and atrophied. What sup
port could they afford in an hour. of
trial?
What could a man .do at defending
himself whose arms had been carried
In a sling for weeks, to say nothing of
years of a tight-fitting corset?
At the lower part of the chest are

very readily compressed. Sometime
they become folded Inward, thus si ill
farther contracting the breathing
space. From tots cause the air celts in
the lower part of the lungs become like
the pores in a dried-up sponge.
That broad, flat muscle, the dia
phragm, which Nature intenoVd should
assist In respiration. Is confined as if
held In a vice, and is quite unable to
do Its work.
It Is, In fact, actually fored to do
mischief. It Is obliged to help In push
ing down the Important viscera whli-ii
lie below It, thus causing a dreadful pro
lapsus of many delicate parts.
. PHYSICAL FOLLIES.
As if this were not enough, the fool
ish and misguided woman puts her
pretty feet on high heels, and so pro
duces further displacement and then
disease, prolonged suffering, and often
death. In thlB way her offspring are
robbed, at the very outset, of their vi
tality, and cheated out of their birth
right to health and strength.
Surely the mother who would know
ingly do this is neither wise nor con
scientious , and cannot be healthful
herself either mentally, morally, or
physically.
The trouble Is they do not know.
Myriads of young girls on the very
threshold of womanhood are Btandlng
with shattered systems, who. If they
knew and could explain the cause,
would say, "My mother never told me."
Between the parent and the growing
youth or maiden there should be the
most perfect confidence and freedom of
conversation on the most sacred and
most intimate laws of life and hygiene.
The mother who cannot Intuitively
understand even the temptations of her
son has no right to have a son. The
woman who cannot so order her own
life, and so prescribe anti-natal condi
tions as to reduce temptations to a
minimum and bring assistance to temp
tations to Its maximum, has no right to
be a mother.
THINGS WORTH KNOWING.
To Preserve Sponge. The best method of
treating sponges In order to preserve them
is to wash them every week In salt and
water.
For Making Hands Soft. Mix honey,
olive oil and almond meal in equal quan
tities; use when washing; wear gloves aa
much as possible.
Cure for Corns. One tea spoonful of tar,
one of coarse brown sugar and one of salt
petre, the whole to be warmed together;
spread the mixture on kid or soft leather
the alze of the corns, and In two days they
will be drawn out.
To Cure a Nervous Headache. We are
told that walking a short distance back
wards effects an immediate cure. It Is so
simple that one has only to wait the op
portunity to try it. It is well to be sure
that your way is clear before trying It.
Leather chairs may be cleaned with
warm water, a little vinegar, and a quite
clean sponge; dry with a soft wash-leather,
whisk the whites of three eggs with
three teaapoonsfuls of turpentine, rub into
the leather with a small piece of soft flan
nel; rub off with clean linen rags.
Filter for Cistern Water. Perforate the
bottom of a wooden box with a number of
small holes; nlace Inside a piece of flan
nel, cover with coarsely powdered char
clal, over this coarse river sand, and on
this small pieces of sandstone. The water
passing through will be thoroughly fil
tered. To Remove Grease from Carpets. Equal
quantities of fuller's earth and magnc-ala
should be mixed Into a paste with boiling
water; put It while hot thickly over the
grease and leave It on for several hours,
when In all probability It will have ab
sorbed the grease; then brush it olT with a
hard brush.
Cement for Joining Wood. A very supe
rior cement for joining wood may be made
by soak I id? Isinglass or gelatine In water
until it swells; the water should then be
drained off, and spirit poured on It, and the
vessel placed In a pan of hot water until
the Isinglass is dissolved. This cement
must then be kept In a well-stoppered bot
tle till wanted for use.
Pickle and Preserve Jars. Remember
that pickle and preserve Jars should al
ways be washed In cold water, dried thor
oughly and kept In a dry place. If they
are washed In hot water It cracks their
glazed surface, making them porous and
unfit for use, since one of the great points
in pickling and preserving Is thoroughly
to exclude the air.
THE CONGRESSMAN SHUT IP.
From the New York Journal. '
The last time Congressman Bailey, of
Texas, was In New York, he had business
on lower Broadway. As he went down on
a cable cur the conductor shouted out
"Houston!" with the pronounciatlon given
to that name in these parts. Bailey looked
at a lamp post.
"You mean 'Houston. ' " sold Bailey,
don't you? The conductor without look
ing at him said: "I know my business."
"If part of your business la to call out
the streets properly," suld Bailey quiet
ly, "then you don't know It. The street
we just passed Is not called Houston."
as you gave It, but 'Hooston," for Gen
eral Sam Houston, the liberator of Texas.
If you even went to Texas und talked
about Sam 'Howstont,' you'd be lucky to
escape lynching."
"If I went to Texas," said the conduc
tor, who was born on Sixth avenue, and
who never was farther away from the
city than Coney Island, "I'd deserve any
thing they gave me." Bailey said noth
ing, for he did not know the answer to
(his discourteous suggestion.
Her Rich Blood.
"Felicia!"
"UeialJ !"
The rich blood suffused her cheek.
That whs more tliun he could say. None
of his blood had been rich since his great
grandfather, the Duke of Woodetiham,
had tried to break the bank at Monte
Carlo. Detroit Tribune.

of galvanism on the nerves by experiment

continued to grow in prominence as a cure
for disease.
