It is Economy to save the handsome gasps of velvet and other Rich material to Fitch come from Tho dressmaker and into some useful article.

People sometimes ask at what age can we seat a child in a chair when put him on Ufa legs How old Tust to be before we tic him to walk tic answers arc easy. Be must not be made to Ait till he hits spontaneously sat up in his bed and has Tam Able to hold his seat. This some times happens in the sixth or seventh month sometimes later. The sitting to lion is not without danger even when he takes it himself imposed prematurely upon him it tires the Backbone and May interfere with the growth so the child should never be taught to stand or walk. That is his affair not ours. Place bin on a carpet in a healthy room in the open air and lot him play in free Dom Roll try to go ahead on his hands and feet or go backward which be will do More successfully at first it All gradually strengthens and hardens him. Some Day he will manage to get upon his Knees an other Day to go Forward upon them arid then to raise himself up against the chairs. He thus learns to do All to can As fast As lie cad and no More. But they say he will be longer in learn ing to walk if he a left to go on his Knees or his hands and feet indefinitely. What difference does it make if exploring tire world in this Way he becomes acquainted things learns to estimate distances strengthens his legs and Back prepares himself in Short to walk better when he Geta to walking the important thing is not whether he now or then but that to learns to guide himself to help himself and to have confide no in himself. I hold without exaggeration that education of the character ingoing on at the same time with training in locomotion Aud that the Way one learns to walk is not without moral importance. Henri Marion in popular Soi monthly. Don t to a picture. One of the loveliest of nature s gifts to woman is a Beautiful complexion but when a Young woman goes to work to improve upon nature by Tho use of paints and powders she has made a mistake. During Tho Mardi gras time when the cars were crowded to their utmost by pleasure seeking and utterly worn out peo ple a Young lady was swinging on the strap Whoso complexion was All a gloss her Cheeks most exquisitely tinted her thin and forehead White and fair. It did look Lovely but a very practical gun Visnan in Tho car was overheard to say to As the Young lady stepped lightly from the car step to the ground As the car at her Corner there goes a pretty girl if you re a Good judge of no Man or Wor aau blames any girl Lor bring All the simple measures in her Power forthe beautification of her face and form. It is one of the Cardinal principles of a woman s nature to try to make herself As Petty As she can pretty in her own eyes obd pretty in the eyes of but no Batter How dexterously or artistically the Dainty Rouge May be applied its presence is telltale and no matter How fair she May otherwise be the girl has lost every Charm to the sensible find worldly Wise when the she is painted is decided upon her.

There is nothing in the whole Range of in which Many otherwise sensible women show so much stupidity As in the of a Kitchen stove. They to think that making a fire is a game Nee.

Walla that to Zhitai Radd Plain bunds at the windows and the cheapest kind of chairs to sit upon Are my ideas of said a lady recently who has been famous for the Beauty of her Bric a Brac and the number of her pretty i am to she continued of living in a House that looks As if it were afflicted with perpetual Small pox and taking care of things that have no real use or value but simply occupy the rage for ornament has reached each proportions that it most be followed by reaction. The discovery of materials and methods by which precious metals gems and other Rich and rare substances can be closely imitated has intoxicated the masses and made the semblance of splendor so common that wealth most take Refuge in refinement and simplicity in order to avoid the Community of display. The intrinsic Worth or worthlessness of Holiday Dis plays is easily estimated by looking at a collection of the Residuum after Tho sea which casts a spell Over the great body of buyers a Over and the influence has departed. It is then seen with quite different eyes its character or want of character stands revealed and it is offered for a song which no one cares to sing. Homemaker. Energy in woman. At the fireside the woman May be very quiet and not a bit venturesome toward Groat or somber undertakings but she will not be apathetic if she is Wise for that is death in life bringing perplexity and mis take. She will make an Effort in the inter est of Somo Little Beneficence every hour in Aid of her better nature or the demands of some one and change the history of her Small sphere for the Best. The great ones of Tho world have been those who constantly renewed their Energy and i think if Many of us made a Brave Effort every Day the thinkers and pioneers would not stand so solitary on the Heights. There is a belief abroad that one should receive Power for an Effort while it is really Energy which brings Jenver As the sold brings the fruit. We have selfish Energy All about but like every imitation it is a poisonous variety. The strength and penetration of those devoted to Tho Happi Ness of others and Tho spread of learning Are the result of prayerful self giving no matter whether Tho Effort is to smile into the eyes of one who sorrows today or to minister to a thousand sufferers for All of life. Effort made Louisa Alcott Clara Barton and Julia Ward Howe and it makes As Well every cheery Home spirit who loves another More than herself. Rose Hawthorne Lathrop in Harper s Bazar. In Beauty a Blessing of the Beautiful women i have known but few have attained superiority of any kind. So much is expected by the woman accustomed to admiration that she plays and Walters with her Fate till the crooked stick is All that a left her. This we see exemplified again and again. While the Earnest lofty Sweet smiling woman of the Pale hair and doubtful line of nose has perhaps one True Lover whose Worth she has time to recognize an acknowledged Beauty will find herself surrounded by a crowd of showy egotist whose admiration so dates and bewilder her that she is some times tempted to bestow herself upon the most importunate one in order to end the unseemly struggle. Then the incentive to education and to the cultivation of one s Especial Powers is lacking. Forgetting that the triumphs which have made u Holiday of youth must Lessen with the years Many a fair one neglects that training of the mind which gives to her who is poor in All else an endless storehouse of wealth from which she can Hope to produce treasures for her own delectation and that of those about her Long after the fitful Bloom upon her handsome Bister s Cheek has faded with the roses of departed Katharine Green in ladies Home journal.

Dear Higginson in West Shore. Airing the bed. It is not everybody who can make a bed Well. Most servants produce poor results n this respect. Beds should be stripped if All belongings and left to air thoroughly. On to however leave a window open directly upon the bed and Linen with a fog in rain prevailing outside.

It is a Peculiar fact that nine out of ten of the pretty girls seen on the ferryboat have Little leather travelling bags in their hands. As the girls never take handkerchiefs or purses out of the bags or in fact open them at All Many persons wonder what the sachets contain. I asked a Bright Young lady whom i met on the ferry this morning and she explained matters. Those Little said she Are the Sig manuals of the typewriters and stenographers. When you see a girl swinging along with a Sachel evidently Light you May know that it contains Only her lunch. When the bag seems heavy it is equally certain that Tho bearer has been sitting up the night before working hard to catch up with her correspondence or copying. All the girls who do either or stenography carry them and they Are.

Short on family name. One of the oddities of fashionable society in Philadelphia which is puzzling to Stran Gers is the number of Young ladies met with and classified As Belles who Bear the same family name. Until recently it has not been considered Good form to use except in intimate inter course Young ladies first names but now it is not Only necessary but there being daughters of different branches of the same family bearing the same Christian name and such titles us mobs Arabella Kitten House n and miss Begina Pedigree Iii Are found on cards and invitations. This of course cannot be earned out in introductions and As there Ara at least Twenty families with Young ladies bearing the same name though Only distantly re lated the effect at a Large party is very confusing. For instance there Are Twenty eight miss times. She too Chea the Button. Mrs. Mary Lowell is a woman of Many resources and has ingeniously perfected an arrangement which serves As an automatic much More easily managed than the genuine article. The Bane of Honse keeping to a woman is the lighting of the Kitchen fire in Tho Chilly dismal Dawn mrs. Lowell is a scientific electrician ant has fitted up wires in the Kitchen which communicate with her Bedstead in such i Way that she has but to touch a Knob Anc a Little Shock is Given to the fire which is carefully Laid every night. When the lady deliberately dresses and goes Down to her Kitchen Tho fire is cheerfully burning the Kettle a merrily coiling and the Oatmeal is nearly cooked. When a process is per acc cd by which a lady can attach an elec Trie Button to her rocking chair which will Wash the dishes while she reads or embroidery a problem will cease from York Suu.

Besides filing Moat graciously her prominent place n fashionable society and being a most devoted Mother to the Little son of whom he famous orator is so fond she devotes Somo time to literature and has often seen Ler name in print. In the desire to train children in the Way of neatness Many people make the Little ones at bedtime carefully fold each Gar ment taken off. It is a mistake to do this As the clothes need to be thoroughly aired during the night. The child May be taught to hang them up on Low Hooks and thus acquire orderly habits.
