CONYERS, GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY, JULY 2, 1890. ADVICE TO TIRED WOMEN. When housekeepingloads grow too heavy something must be giv¬ en up rather than neglect the chil¬ dren, while their mother is stag¬ gering under the weight of ironing sewing and fancy cooking. Mrs. Abby Diaz recommends such over¬ worked women to let a good many unstarched articles go roughdried with only a little pulling and smoothing, to put plainer clothes on children, and to quit baking so much cake and pie. The great point is to gain time. “Let them give up doing these for their chil¬ dren in order that they may do better things for those children, such as reading, talking, walk¬ ing with them, especially walking in the woods and the fields; such as getting light on matters connec¬ ted with their proper training. I don’t mean to say that we never have a bit of cake or pudding in the house, in fact, we do often have plain cake, or ginger-bread occa¬ sionally, to help out a pudding. But they are not counted in a mong the must haves. I have es¬ caped from that tyranny. If there’s no cake in the house, I don’t feel myself to be ashamed and a sinful creature as I used to.” Newspaper Items. The Cyclone is a new venture at Salem, W. Va,, by Ormon Ran¬ dolph.

Some of your wives (tur ning to the visiting preachers) sold mighty cheap. In addressing the ministers he said again: “If you should ever be called to preach a commence ment sermon, it is all right to read from manuscript; but when you souls, are preaching the gospel to save never writeoff your sermon. I had rather see my pastor draw because a pistol on me than a manuscript; he would miss me with the pistol and would hit me every time with the manuscript. Some men love their wives, and the rascals won’t tell them about it. You ought to do this. You should always when you come in at night hug and kiss your wife, and tell her she is the prettiest, sweetest little thing you ever saw. Some of you would have to tell a lie to do it, but nevertheless it ought In to be done. ters Sam exhorting said: the young minis¬ “Some preachers will not say anything in the pul¬ pit against whisky.

Nail TRege Aphorisms to the Barn-door. “Who enters here leaves pipe behind.” Tire horse wifi be all the better for working his way through the winter. The man that knows the right use of a horse-blanket, is a first class horse-man. Too many houses eat up, during the winter, all they have earned during the summer, The horse-blanket saves feed and flesh—less substance is used to make animal heat. receptacle Keeping than matches iron in any other an or tin box, is tempting Providence. Some people think a farm ani¬ mal is like a postage stamp—no good until licked. * They are sadly mistaken, The farm-horse having only light labor, and not much sh*ouid of that, during the and winter, have less grain more roughness than during the summer. The man that puts iron bits in his horses’ mouths in very cold weather, without first warming the bits, has altogether too much of the savage in his composition.— American Agriculturist. ft Ladies’ cooking schools are the rage all over England at tuition prices of from $50 to $100 per twenty lessons, according to the grade of cooking which In the pupil desires to learn.
