The bled at last has found a fitting rest, --
And nestle, quietly on that fair breast. s

sign, as a whole, may be large, yet each part . •
should be small; the introduction of large
leaves, sprigs, or flowers,. will greatly detract
from the. beauty of appearance which is so
essential to be preserved. •- Clusters of Small .

this description of'elaborittolY wrought fabric,

swill and sharp scissors, to be cut of, as near

The various patterns-are so numerous that -
it is . next to impossible to •enumerate them. .
One beautifill variety is formed by filling up
the centres of flowers with insertion stitches ;'

handsome when executed with due care. It •
is also ,common to form Sprigs or brahohes by
eyelet-holes; which may be either placed along — '
a oteni or disposed in'olusters orthree, either ::t
way, they forth a variety' which producesrzy
pleasing effect.! This kind of embroideryfis
often employed in the preparation 6f,veils,-for
bridal and other occasions,, and for this purpcilse '
it is admirably adapted.
Sweeping and pasting
Sweepilig is an art of a simple 'character,
but which, to do well, requires practice and
care. The broom; in the hands of a careless
person, may do More harm than good,.by
raieing.the dust from one place, only to - send .
it into another, instead of rolling it gently
along until a mass jp collected • utifficieni to
bd . swept into Ore dust-pan and carried off--
Before, beginning to sweep, the doors and
windows may lie closed,. and some kind. of
coverings be thrown over the.furniture of the
room, in order to protect it from any lodg
ment of the dust- The floor, whether carpet
cd'or uncovered, may be sprinkled over with
moist tea leaves; those leaves , litiould not be •
mouldy, or they will impart no pleasant fresh
ness to the air of the room, nor dried, or they
will be useleSs in catching the'dust. l *-
Taking her broom, the sweeper should first
sweep.gently, the dust collected• under the
furniture, beds, Sm.,. and. When . sweeping in
the open room, she should avoid 'lifting the
broom hastily or high abovd the floor, - which
would seittter the dust upward ; -but she should
endeavor to check its rtsing,,while she quiet
ly. and gently rolls . the mass of leaves and
dust into one spot, from which it can lie
most readily swept into the dust-pan: • Under
beds, wardrobes,, and 'other immovable furni
ture, the dust should be carefully swept away
and, not allowed to accumulate, as is fre
quently the case. :.
After sweeping, the essential work of dust
ing is to be attended' to. The . window cur
tains, which were lifted up considerably above
the floor during sweeping sbeiild DOW be re
leased, 9_penedysheiten, brushed, and proper.
ly arranged oker the hooks or bands. Tables -
aohis, with all the varieties ofehairs and seats
now in use, are - then to be.carefully dusted
an ti' arranged. '" Liedgeri
doors, and window - panes should now be swept
witli.an appropriate brush; mirrors and pie-.
tares, with gilded frames,- must be brushed
with feathers or silk dusters, as'a linen . rubber
spoil's them. Chimney-piece ornaments must
be.carefully removed, and the - mantle-piece
either wiped free from dust, or- washed with.
soap and cold water; the ornaments,' before
being replaced, are to be carefully wiped with
a fine linen duster.
