not put enough on so that they will
be literally wet through with it, but go
over them lightly as if you were glaz
ing the top. Repeated experiments
have convinced me that this is much
better than to put much butter on the
top layer of a cracker; put plenty of
it on the oysters just under the crack
er crumbs.
Pearl Wheat.
This is good as a variation on the
oatmeal porridge for breakfast. Take
half a cupful of pearl wheat, two cup
fuls of milk, and four cupfuls of wa
ter, with a scant teaspoonful of salt.
Let the milk and water boil up in a
saucepan on the stove; then stir in
tiie wh'at and salt. Put the wheat in
the inside kettle of a steamer to cook,
pouring boiling water in the outside
kettle around it. Boil two hours. Let
the steamer stand all night on the
back of the range, and in the morn
ing heat it up gradually just before
serving. This can be also done with
oa tr~ cal.
Half a toaspoonful of common salt
dissolved in a little cold water and
drank will instantly relieve “heart
burn,” or dyspepsia. Dr. Vigorous rec
ommends a glass of hot lemonade, ev
ery hour or half hour, as an easy,
agreeable and efficient treatment for
diarrhoea. Never wash the feet in
warm water except just before retir
ing. Cold water with a little ammo
nia or salt dropped in is much better.
Some Uses for Turpentine.
A teaspoonful in the boiler of
clothes whitens them and takes out
stains.
Three to five drops of turpentine on
a lump of sugar is good for a sore
throat.
A thick paper spread with butter
and sprinkled with turpentine, and
laid on the throat and chest, and a
flannel cloth over that is good for
croup.
Two spoonfuls of butter or lard and
one teaspoonful turpentine is'good for
sore shoulders or wire cuts on horses.
Lay one tablespoonful of salt on a
cloth and wet well with turpentine
and bind on a felon, is a sure cure if
the pus is not already formed.
A few drops in the drinking water
once a week is good for the hens in
winter and prevents roup.
- A small brush and a bottle of tur
pentine is good to paint bedsteads that
are thought to have bugs. It will not
crack the paint as some things do.
When Apples Are Scarce.
When apples are scarce the skins
may be utilized in making jelly or vin
egar.
For jelly, put the skins on in just
enough water to cover them and boil
one-half hour or longer, according to
quantity, then strain and proceed in
the usual way.
To make vinegar, put peels in stone
jar with water enough to cover; keep
in warm place where it will ferment;
when fermentation ceases, strain and
keep in warm place until sour, which
may be from six to eight weeks.
To Hold Waist and Skirt.
Sew two buttons on the inside of
your everday waists and either put
button-holes to correspond in the
skirt belt or sew two heavy pieces
about two inches long and wide
enough to hold a button-hole, one on
each side of the placket, and see how
safe you feel, no pulling up above the
apron belt, but kept in place neat and
tidy.—C. E. C.
To Cool the Oven.
When you are baking if the oven
gets too hot, put in a basin of cold wa
ter instead of leaving the door open.
This cools the oven, and the steam
arising from the water prevents the
contents burning.
When cooking in a gas oven a basin
of water should always be kept in the
oven.—G. H. S.

THE VINE.
Beneath a brave'young oak there grew
A lovely vine, half hid from view.
When first emerging from the ground,
No stay its fragile tendrils found
Until a breeze all kind but rough
Blew its frail spray just close enough
To touch ami clasp with tendrils fine
The tree that heeded not the vine.
Quickly it grew, upward and on,
Hanging its wreaths the limbs upon,
Until a canopy it made,
Fair as to sight, sweet as to shade.
Its flowers perfumed each breeze that
stirred,
Its fruit spread feast for man and bird.
It made those wonder who had seen
The vine as a frail spray of green.
With mortals ’tis, as with the vine, .
They put forth hopes, like tendrils
fine,
And wait until a power divine
Gives them some chance by which to
rise,
Towards fairer light and warmer skies
That they may throw their influence
wide
And not their good and beauty hide.

SOME RULES FOR DAILY LIVING.
When unkind or unpleasant opin
ions of others come into the mind,
shut down the trap doors of the
thoughts right quick, so no ideas can
either come in or escape.
Do not be overcome by pains and
aches in the heart; just remember
“God’s love” is a balm that can and
will heal them all.
Never think you suffer from doing
right. All sorrow comes from evil
and good people often suffer from the
misdeeds of others and because they
are in the midst of sin.
Often God denies us human love
for a time, so that we may more com
pletely receive “Divine love,” thus
making our powers greater for giving
and receiving love of mankind. When
the heart is broken, then God’s heal
ing love pours into the crevices, seal
ing the pieces together and making it
whole again. Tenderly God would care
for his children each day, if allowed,
but stubborn, wilful man will not be
directed. He wants his own way and
therefore must suffer.
It is best not to tell one’s private
troubles to friends or neighbors. Talk
ing over these only makes them worse
and then a misunderstanding with
friends may cause them to betray you.
They can not help you, any way. Just
whisper them into the loving ear of
Jesus, who can and will help.
Never allow the evil doing of others
to be an excuse for your misconduct.
Love is fulfilling God’s law, then be
thankful you are capable of loving
even if thou canst not win it, be pa
tient and it may yet come.

THAT QUESTION.
Dr. Botts. I can sympathize with
you in the case of the baby that
loudly refuses to go to sleep and allow
its papa to enjoy its mamma’s society
in the evening, but I can still more
feelingly sympathize with the mother
of the wee girlie for 1 have been just
in her fix. My husband and I spoiled
our first child —a fine boy. He was
humored in the beginning and he
gradually became the master of the
house, and we his vassals, eager to do
his bidding lest he lift up his voice and
alarm the neighbors. They are very
discerning, those little morsels. They
soon learn their power and your
weakness. They learn to have their
own sweet way, they have but to cry
long and loud enough. But it is as
easy to teach them to be quiet and
obedient, and even never to cry.
Our next baby was a girl and I
determined she should not be spoiled.
Before her birth I kept myself in
excellent health and spirits by dieting,
bathing and exercise. I was careful
not to over work and tried to keep
good tempered. When she came she
was a healthy sweet natured baby. I
never rocked her, just laid her in her
crib and she went to sleep without any
trouble. Os course I had to let her cry
it out a few times, but that did not
hurt her, and as I did all my house
work I could not spare the time to
rock her to sleep. I often played with
her and never neglected her, but I did
not spoil her. She cut her teeth easily,
has never been sick and never taken a
drop of medicine. She is now over
three years old —a happy sweet child —
the light of our home.
I believe in the man being the head
of the house, and in his having a hand
in bringing up the children, but he
should study their characters and
know just what he is doing before he
punishes them. I have seen fathers
pitch in and whip—or spank—because
they were irritated and without under
standing the situation or the child. I
am opposed to woman suffrage and
only too glad the men have the game
of politics all to themselves. I don’t
yearn for the privilege of putting my
fingers in the government pie. 1 don’t
believe I could understand the tariff if
you explained It to me all day. For
that matter I am sure half the men
can’t understand it either.
