Open the door of your heart. —Moses Gage Shirley in Boston Tran script. The Detective Mirrors. I have seen an odd device in an- I cient houses, once in the quaint old town of Newburyport, Mass., again in a tiny Dutch settlement in Penn sylvania. Over the front door, right under a shuttered window from which a housewife might peep cautiously, was an arrangement of two mirrors, where was reflected the figure of any one who stood at the front door seeking admittance. It was a wonderfully handy device and more, I think, in keeping with the spirit of the times than the polite deceit of today, “Hot at home,” which seldom deceives callers or peddlers.—Goad Housekeeping. A Cozy Corner on the Piazza. The best arrangement may be made in the corner of a roofed piaz- j za. Have a box seat built here. It should be 16 or 17 inches high, 20 inches wide and as long as the place will allow. In this box may be kept rugs, cushions, pillows, etc., secured with a lock.

Every boy at some time ^or other of his life has probably collected birds’ eggs, but a collection of wish bones «*, health and J the parents’ \ \ iffS] responsibility, and how important that g 'j ?J no taint of disease is left in the blood ‘ 111 to be transmitted to the helpless child, entailing the m pitiable suffering, and marking its little body with cf- sive sores and eruptions, catarrh of the nose and throat, weak eyes, glandnh swellings, brittle bones, white swelling and deformity. How can parents look upon such little sufferers and not reprj themselves for bringing so much misery into the world? If ycs-fl any disease lurking in your system, how can you expect well devdri healthy children ? Cleanse your own blood and build up your health a; you have not only enlarged your capacity for the enjoyment of the please of life, but have discharged a duty all parents owe to posterity, and m mankind healthier and happier. There is no remedy that so surely reaches deep-seated, stubborn Ik r- — — troubles as S. S. S. It searches out even heredji poisons, and removes every taint from the bod v^Ni and builds up the general health. If weati| (O) are growing up around you, right the or “merry thoughts” is unique. * Have our young readers ever seen such a collection or thought of it, or that there is a connection between birds'’ eggs and the wishbones or the skulls of the birds that laid the e^gs, and that it is interesting to study the two together ? One learns from them a good deal about ele mentary anatomy. In many muse ums collections of birds’ skeletons lie beside the eggs. • 4 A deal box varnished an J about ; 15 by 18 inches and 6 inches deep is a very suitable size and will hold at ‘ least 100 eggs and as many wish bones. It must he fitted with a glass, sloping downward from the back, so as to give greater depth for the larger eggs. The, eggs .may be arranged in rows* marked out by wooden partitions, with trays one above the other. If the- collection grows to any size, a mahogany cabi net may be-provided, and if such a case with its ivory white wishbones or skulls and eggs, systematically and neatly arranged, each with its appertaining eggs, were sent to the county fair it would certainly carry off a premium. - ' ; ' A Rainy Day Money Maker. The Hew York Times tells of a boy who makes money on rainy days by furnishing protection from the rain to persons caught out with out umbrellas. As soon as school is out on a rainy day he takes his umbrella to the foot of the stairs leading up to one of the elevated railway stations; and £s people come down the stairs he offers to them the use of his umbrella at the rate of three blocks for 5 cents for one person. He makes quite a neat lit tle sum every rainy day. He says Ke could make more money if he could supply rubbers, A Sign Reader. “I’m beginning to be able to read signs!” said Harry, rushing into the house to display his new accomplish ment. “Ho! Are you really?” asked a F : Tpund eyed small sister. “Yes, :indeed. Listen to this: What do you think it’s a sign of when our old gray cat catches a bird ?” The little sister pondered and gave if up. “I’m sure I don’t know, Harry. Do tell me.” “It’s a sure sign of bad luck for the bird!” cried Harry, rushing out again in a hurrv. \ HOW IT IS DONE.. from the glass you will create an airtight space under your hand suf ficient to overcome the weight of the glass, so that you can lift it.

A much quicker and more satisfactory way of re moving varnish and paint is to scrub the surface with a strong so lution of sal soda. To each pint of water add enough common washing soda to equal the bulk of a hen’s egg, heat it and apply while warm. If the varnished surface is moisten ed with this, then let stand a few moments. It can be scrubbed off easily, using the solution on the scrubbing brush. All foreign ma terial will be removed from the wood, and it will be just as it was turned out from the mill. Rinse off with clear water, and when dry it may be revarnished. Cleaning Soiled Ermine. A correspondent asks how ermine that is slightly soiled may be clean ed without sending it to the furrier, where its handling will be expen sive. Haphtha will clean it excel lently, but the process is rather a risky one. If undertaken out of doors and on not too cold a day, when sometimes the air is so charg ed with electricity that a little rub bing will produce a spark, there should be no trouble. Put a half gallon of naphtha in a foot tub and immerse the fur collar, muff or whatever it mav be, lifting it in and out several times and rubbing any soiled spots. Dry in the sun, a part of the process which is necessary. Where can you find a superior to these goods? No where And there’s ' How About Your Heart Feel your pulse a few minutes. Is it regular?
