6 The Household. A PSALM FOR NEW YEAR'S JB PE. A friend Manila at the door; In either tight-closed hand Hiding rich gift*, three hundred and three score : Waiting to strew them daily o'er the land, Even as seed the sower. Each drops he, treads it in and panea by: It cannot be made fruitful till it die. 0 good New Year, we clasp This warm shut hand of thine, Loosing forever, with half sigh, half gasp, That which from ours falls like dead fingers’ twine: Ay, whether fierce its grarp Has been or gentle, having been, we know That it was blessed: let the Old Year go. 0 New Year teach us faith | The mad of life is hard; When our feet bleed and scourging winds us seal he, Point thou to Him whose visage was more maned Than any man’s; who saith, “Make straight paths for your feet”—and to the opprcal - “Come ye to Me, and I will fcive you rest.” Yet hang some lamp-like hope Above this unknown way, Kii.d Year, to give our spirits freer scope, And our hands strength to work while It is day. But If that way must slope Tombwiird, oh bring before nur fading eyes The lamp of life, the hope that never dies. Comfort our souls with love— Love of all human kind; Love special, close—in which like sheltered dove Each weary heart Its own safe nest may find ; And love that turns above Adoringly ; contented to resign All loves, If need be, for the Love divine. Friend, come thou like a friend, Ami whether bright thy face. Or dim with clouds we cannot comprehend— We’ll hold out patient bauds; each In his place, And trust thee to tlte end ; Knowing thou feadcst onward to those spheres Where there are neither days nor months nor years. Mra. Afulock Craik. SUN!) A r AFTERNOONS. There are t wo or three hours on Sun day afternoon which give to most of us a feeling of perfect leisure. How do we employ them? The attendance on morning church and Sunday school is over, and before the evening bells shall ring we have this space, this margin, which is an opportunity for repose, for reflection, and for improvement, such as no other day in the week affords. Well, some of us go to bed. The Sunday afternoon nap is taken by people who never think of lying down except on Sunday. Monday for wash ing, Tuesday for ironing, Wednesday for baking, Thursday for mending, Friday for sweeping, Saturday for a grand campaign of everything com bined, and Sunday for a collapse. That is their way, practically. If they go to church, they are too tired to gain the real good they ought to gain in God’s house. So when afternoon comes, and dinner is over, they go to their rooms, shut out the sunshine, darken the blinds, turn the key, and go to sleep. We do not declaim against a daily nap. Every woman who can get it is the better in health, and the fresher in leeling, and will last the longer in her usefulness and energy, if every day she will lie down for a half or a whole hour, and rest, and sleep if she can. But we do not approve of making a convenience of the Lord’s Day, and spending its golden time in slumber, simply because it is His day, and we cannot sew nor scrub. Some people writs? letters on Sunday afternoon. There is a sort of corres pondence which it is perfectly proper to engage in holy time, but it goes with out saying that it is correspondence suited to the day and to the spiritual tenor of thought and feeling which the day should induce. To save secular time by writing letters in sacred time is a sin. To devote the pen to the service of business, of gossip, of com pliment, or of mirth, is to defeat the object for which the hallowed day was given, and to lower the tone of one’s own religious character. It is not re membering the Sabbath Day to keep it holy, not tiefending it by a holy rest ing all that day from employments appropriate for other days. Some people read novels on Sunday afternoon. They may be sprinkled with piety as a cake is coated with sugar, or flavored with morality’ as a pudding is spiced with nutmeg. But the are nevertheless works of fiction, whose primary purpose is to please the fancy, to amuse an idle hour, or to af ford recreation to a jaded mind. We thoroughly approve of good novels, for secular reading. For Sunday afternoon, we entirely disapprove of them. S:and ard Christian classics are abundant. Biography presents a wide variety from which to choose, and no reading is more directly efficient in forming char acter than that of the livesof good men and women. Devotional poetry and missionary literature are elevating and profitable. Many of us could uot do anything for ourselves quite so benefi cial as to set apart our Sunday after noon leisure for Bible reading and study. Few of us study our Bibles so deeply and so thoroughly as we ought. The mother with her little ones, some of them too young as yet to com prehend distinctions of day from day, is doubtless the person who can least secure a season of unbroken rest on Sunday afternoon. But in the Chris tion family the children early learn that the more noisy play is prohibited on the Sabbath. They are willing while yet very small to have the little wagons, and drums, and whips, and tops put in the closet till Monday, and though the woe girlie may take care for her dolly, as mamma does of the baby, and the little boy run and jump out-of-doors, as the lambs frisk and the colt leaps, they soon catch the Sunday atmos phere ; they like to see the Sunday picture-books and to hear the Bible THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1881. stories. Mother ought not to have the whole work of entertaining and teaching the children left to her. Father should share it, or auntie, or elder sister, and the duties of the day should be so ad justed that every one under the home roof should receive into the soul the blessing and the gladness of the day which is God’s ever-benignant gift to man. Another nix day’s work is done, Another Sabbath is begun. Let bodv, soul and spirit, a three fold union, enjoy and delight in the festival. MISCELLANEOUS. Plug up mice holes with soap. The mice will not go through. To Select Nutmegs,—Prick them with a pin. If they are good the oil will instantly spread around the punc ture. A tablespoonful of molasses added to stove-blacking will cause it to ad here better, and retain its polish long er. To remove a glass stopper, drop some glycerine in the surrounding crevice, and after an hour or two it will loos en. Keep a shoemaker’s knife-stone in your kitchen, for putting a keen edge on knives. A dull knife is the banc of the housekeeper. In boiling eggs hard put them in boiling water ten minutes, and then put them in cold water. It will pre vent the yolks from coloring black. To Take Rust Out of Steel.— Cover the steel with sweet oil, well rubbed in. In forty-eight hours rub with finely powered, unslaked lime un til the rust disappears. It is a mistaken idea to cover a car pet with drugget in the belief that it saves it. What wears out carpets is the grinding on the floor, and the pro tection should come from beneath. It is stated, on the authority of one who claims to have tried the experi ment, that a handful of hay placed in a pail of water in a newly-painted room, will entirely neutralize the odor of the paint. A carelessly kept coffee-pot will im part a rank flavor to the strongest in fusion of the best Java. Wash the coffee-pot thoroughly every day, and twice a week boil borax water in it for fifteen minutes. Jelly molds should be greased with cold butter. When you wish to re move the jelly or pudding, plunge the mold into hot water, remove quickly, and the contents will come out in per fect form and without any trouble. Kerosene Fires.—lt ought to be more generally known that wheat flour is probably the best possible article to threw over a fire caused by the spilling and igniting of kerosene. It ought to be known, because flour is always within convenient reach. Stains in Marble.—An equal quan tity of fresh spirits of vitriol and lemon juice will take stains out of marble. Put in a bottle and shake up well; wet the spots with the mixture, and in a few minutes rub with a soft linen cloth till they disappear. Pale blue stockings which have fad ed can have the color restored by dip ping into hot water in which com mon bluing has been poured and some lumps of alum are dissolved. Old white stockings can be colored in this way and do a good deal of service. Reflection from Lamps.—Never set the lamp upon a red table cover; if you cannot find time to make a green lamp mat, put a piece of green card board under the lamp, and you will find the reflection upon your work much more agreeable to the eyes than that from the red cover. Fire-Proof Cotton Fabrics.—ls a teaspoonful of powdered borax is ad ded to every pint of starch used in starching cotton goods, they cannot be made to burn with a blaze. The bor ax can have no injurious effect upon the cloth or upon the wearer, and is so cheap that every one can afford it. Every day a little.—Every day a little knowledge. One fact in a day. How small Is one fact. Only one. Ten years pass by. Three thousand six hundred and fifty facts are uot a small thing. Every day a little self-denial. The thing that is difficult to do to-day will be an easy thing to do three hundred and sixty-hve days hence, if each day it shall have been repeated. What power of self-mastery shall he enjoy who, looking to God for grace, seeks every day to practice the grace he prays for. Every day a little helpfulness. We live for the good of others, if our living be in any sense true living. It is not in the great deeds of philanthropy that the only blessing is found. In “little deeds of kindness,’’ repeated every day, we find true happiness. At home, at* school, in the street, in the neighbor's house, in the playground, we shall find opportuni ty every day for usefulness. Every day a little look into the Bible. One chapter a day. What a treasure of Bible knowledge one may acquire in ten years I Every day a verse committed to memory. What a volume in twenty-five years I Lai-land babies.—l want to tell you how the matumus away up in Lapland keep their babies from disturbing the minister on Sunday. All the iiabies are outside, buried in the snow. As soon as the family arrives at the little wooden church, and the reindeer is secured, the papa Lapp shovels a snug little bed in the snow; and mamma lapp wraps the baby snugly in skins, and deposits it therein; then the papa piles the snow around if, and the dog is left to guard it while the parents go into the church. Often twenty or thirty babies lie out there in the snow around the church; and I never have heard of one that suffo cated or froze. Smoke dried little crea tures, I suppose they are tough. But how would our soft, tender, pretty, pink and white babies like it, do you think? Ftsttor. A man who is very rich now was very poor when he was a boy. When asked fiow he got his riches, he replied: “My father taught me never to play till all my work for the day was finished, and never to spend money till f had earned it. If I had but half an hour’s work to do in a day, I must do that the first thing, and in half an hour. After this was done, I was allowed to play. I early formed the habit of doing everything in its time, and it soon became perfectly easy to do so. It is to this habit that I now owe my prosperity.” ...Children sometimes preach effec tive sermons without knowing it. Little Freddie was talking to his grandma, who was something of a sceptic, “Grandma, do you belong to the Presbyterian church?” “No.” ‘To the Baptist?” “No.” “To any church?” “No.” “Well, grandma, don’t you think it’s about time to get in somewhere ?" ». fe .«$ Quicker than thought.—A little boy, hearing some one remark that nothing was quicker than thought, said, “1 know something that is quicker than thought.” “What is it, Johnny?” asked his pa. “Whistling,” said Johnny. “When I was in school yesterday I whistled before I,thought, and got whipped for it, toe. ’ OBITUARIES. SHEATH.—On the 17th day of September last, brother Thomas W. Wheats died very suddenly and unexpected from a disease of ahe heart. He was horn In 1819, and was married to Mine M. S. Rlelihardson In 18—. Alter her death he wiih Joined In holy matrimony to Mrs. H. E. Mathews, in 18.39. He united with the Baptist chuich al Freeman's Creek, in 1800. Asacliurcli nieniber.be was punctual to Ins church conferences; wise In counsel, liberal in his contributions, consistent In bls lite, and much beloved by his brethren. He was greatly devoted to tils family. Truly, he was a kind husband and father. Asacltizen he wits influential. During bls lite he was honored by the people ot Walton county with many otllces of trust, all of which he elll clenlly and faithfully discharged. We ace confident that he Is upon -The other shore,” where the bright angels are. there to restover more. He was ad< voted member of Bethel church, nnd a good friend to the community. His family has sustained an Irreparable loss.

J. W. Butis. WOMBLE —Died at the residence of her husband, Rev. Win. B. Womble, Sister Amanda P. Womble. The deceased, was born In Houston county. Georgia, 9th ol Februauy, 1885. Died In Early county, Georgia Slater Womble was marrrled In Stew art county, at the residence of her father. Win. Brown, In 1850. Joined the Baptist church In her fifteenth year. Through all of which she held on the even tenor of aconsis tent Christian life. The hardest struggle with her was lo give up her little children, naming u little babe only a few hours before she died. Trusting God, and proposing the best, arrangement she could, she paused to look at death lace to face. Calling around her children, she gave to each a dying moth er’s charge. Sister Womble was the mother of thirteen children, twelve of whom are liv ing to mourn their loss with their father.

Mrs. Mary Brown, of Elbert county, Geor gia, consort ot Elbert Brown, deceased, died In the 78d year of her age, November2Bth, 1880. She united with Hendrys Baptist church, Hurt county, Georgia, by profession and baptism In 1831 Shortly afterwards mar ried to Elbert Brown, and moved to the neighborhood of Vance Creek chuich. and joined by letter, with which church she re tained her Christian connection of the high est type till death. Nhe was truly a model Christian In conver sation, In dealings, and In works. Sister Brown loved to talk of her Savior and his works of grace. She dealt honestly In all her trmsaettens, and she worked almost Incess antly for her family and suffering humantty, and the Interest of her Master s kingdom. Her pastor and her Savior's cause never Allied to share a part of her hard earnings. As a helpmeet, in the true sense, no man could boast of a better one than her deceased husband could, while living. But bls Savior called him to his reward years ago, and he left her lo meet and battle with the stern realities of Hie,and train her three little daughters for a home with the blest. She f -roved to be • qua! to the arduous task. Hav ng taught them to love Jesus from their childhood, they are all Christian ladies, en joying the confidence and highest respect of all who know them. Sister Brown was a faithful Christian, a hospitable neighbor,a friend to the sutfeilng. u devoted mother, and an extraordinary woman. In hordeatli, the ohuroli has lost one ot its best members; the community one ot Its best citizens, sad the children their best friend. The void made In tliecoinmunlty can scarce ly ever be- tilled. A large community of friends mourn their loss. She leaves three lovely daughters with thetr Christian husbands to mourn their Ir reparable loss. May their blessed Savior soothe their sorrowing hearts, and give the-in sanctifying grace by which they may meet her In perfect bliss. A I hiksd. Headache is so common that some mem ber of nearly every family is affecteei with it. The cause in most cases is a torpid ac tion of the liver is on by debilitating in fluences and impuritiesof the stomach. The habitual sick headache peculiar to some pens sons is permanently cured by taking Sim mons Liver Regulator, ordinary headache, which is only a symptom of deranged stom ach and liver is readily cured by a few doses. And let all who sutler from headaches re member that they can be prevented by tak ing a large dose of the Regulator as soon as their symptoms indicate the coming of an attack. “I used a bottle of Simmons Liver Regli 'ator when troubled seriously with headache caused by constipation. It produced a fav orable result without hindering my regular pursuits in business. "W. W. Wither, Des Moines, lowa.” “Oh, how I do wish my skin was as clear and soil as yours," said a lady to her friend. "You can easily make it so,” answered the friend. “How?” inquired the first lady, “By using Hop Bitters, that makes pure ricfi blood and blooming health. It did it for me as you observe."

The bot- ra— tom part on which the woods rests is solid and life ------- the draft is applied to the fuel from Ibe hot- tom part ot the front Fire-Plate.

On account of the peculiar position and form ol the Fire-Box, vessels will boil quicker witness fuel than by the old fashioned way of construction. The Ash Pan directly under the hearth place is of large capacity aud made of heavy sheet-iron, and is bailed for the couveuienceof removing the asbes. Tin- Mica 1 ight Openings in the front door of the Stove are so arranged as to be closed by a slide when first starting the fire. The Reservoir is of large capacity, and the heat Is at once applied to the bottom of the same, ustead of the front, thereby rend' ring it more efficacious and durable. TheSmoke-Pii e connection line kof the Reservoir makes it a more convenient Stove for use than one arranged with the Smoke-Pipe >n front. The Oven is so constructed that full sized loaves r f bread can be baked in front without the top of the loaf coming in contact with the Fire-Box bottom. The Oven Is unusually high and wide at the top. which secures a more perfect equalization of the heat, and consequently a better operation In baking. The shelf under the oven dosr is so constructed that the upper surfac els on the same plane as the Oven bottom ; thereby securing a shelf that is a firm and permaneai fixture for daily use.
