way; that is out of date”:
”1 had a little husband,
He wasn’t worth a crumb;
I got him on the stock exchange,
And there I made him hum.
1 hummed him and hummed him
’Til he was rich as sin,
Then I lawyered him and lawed him
’Til he wasn’t worth a pin.”
Just here some one rang the door
bell and interrupted us. I said noth
ing to the small girl; she was too
thoroughly imbued with nurse’s per
fections and up-to-dateness for my
words to have any enect, but - re
peated her vaudeville stunts to a very
shocked and surprised mother, who
carefully set about undermining
nurse’s influence, and seeing to it
that nurse taught Mother Goose in
the original and left her “revised ver
sion” alone. And this incident has
set me to thinking, how many care
less, ignorant nurse girls are filling
little children’s minds with tilings
they should never hear. A careless
mother would laugh and say, oh,
they will forget all that; it doesn’t
amount to anything serious,” but my
friends, it does mean something se
rious; and you should see that your
nurse does not. tell your children ugly,
low stories and silly, coarse things
no refined child should hear. Moth
ers can’t be too particular about the
things their little ones see and hear
when their minds are like empty ves
sels, ready to be filled, and the things
that go into them remain there and
go all the way toward character-mak
ing. Don’t you remember the verses
and songs and stories told to you
when you were small? Don’t you re
member the things you did, the places
you visited, the prayers you were
taught, the books you read? Can’t you
readily understand the influence they
had on your disposition and charac
ter? Mothers should know their nur
ses, and neglect everything else if
necessary to watch tneir children’s

LIVING ON THE PORCH.
As tnis is the season when so many
hours can be spent on the porch, a
few ideas for porch conveniences and
entertainments might not come amiss.
A friend of mine says: “Do not com
pel me to do without a porch table;
there are so many clings I want to
put on one.” And a table should be
used that can stand the air, or a show
er of rain, and doesn’t need to be
rolled in; it should be long and nar
row and have rollers, so that it could
be rolled against tne wall. Use no
table cover, but stain it a mahogany
color, and you can then wipe off all
soils. Hooks underneath can be used
for hanging work-baskets, rolls of mu
sic, handkerchief bags, gloves, fans or
parasols. If it is a two-story table,
all the better; magazines can be left
on the lower story, weighted there
with pretty r shells, or pine
knots polished and painted.
A lovely contrivance for holding the
doors is a pine knot polished and
stained, and one will last forever and
can be re-stained. A rack on the
porch wall to hold four is a wonder
ful convenience. I visited recently
where a lady had such lovely fans in
a dainty rack on the porch wall; this
rack was made of pine burrs, each
burr was hollowed out so that the
handle of a fan could be stuck in, and
the dozen large golden orown burrs
were fastened together, and suspend
ed >jy a ribbon and cord from a hook
on the wall.
Another arrangement I saw there
was a rack built against the banis
ters in which to place magazines so
the wind could not blow them down;
music could be left, there, too.
Another porch convenience I saw re
cently was a hanging basket for hom
ing the daily papers, and a little con
cern underneath was supplied with
paper, pencils, a fountain pen and pos
tal cards; this was arranged so that
the rain could not blow on it, and I
can just imagine what a convenience
it is!
Another thing I saw not long ago
was a box beautifully hand-painted
and firmly attached to the piazza
railing in -which the letters to be
given to the postman each day could
be placed; also the mail when the
postman leaves, until some one is
ready to go in. An old lady I know
had bits of board painted and nailed
to the railing, and she kept her books,
