Tomorrow.
‘You'll come tomorrow, then;” light words lightly
said,
Cayly she waved her little hand, gayly he bared
his nead.
“You’ll come tomorrow, then,” and the man on his
errand went,
With a tender prayer on heart and lip, yet on his
work intent.
The woman a moment lingered; "would he turn for
a parting look ?”
Then witli half a smile ai/d half a sigh, her house
hold burden took.
“You’ll come tomorrow, then,” and w’hen the mor
row broke,
•Tale lips in the crowded city, of the "railway acci
dent,” spoke;
A strongman in a stranger's home, in death’s dread
quiet lay,
And a woman sobbed a full heart out in a cottage a
mile away.
Bo lightly our thoughts leap onward, so lightly we
hope and plan,
While Fate waits grimly by and smiles, to watch her
plaything—man—
Discounting the dim strange future, while his blind
eyes caunot see,
What a single dying hour brings: where the next
may bo.
And love floats laughing onward, and at h:B side
glides sorrow,
While men and women between them walk, and
say, “We’ll meet tomorrow !”

The subject of Washing a id Ironing has illieited
Bo many letters, and 1 eea so often discussed by
those who wish information, and are inexperienced,
.that we give this week the v ■ y best article on this
Subject we have seen, and think it will prove inter

down. The article was written for the Ladies’
Borne Journal. We hope all will give it their care
fui attention and be benefitted thereby.
WASHING AND IRONING.
[BY ELIZA R. PARKER.]
There is no department of household labor
that requires closer supervision than washing and
ironing, and while it is not necessary or advisable
for every housekeeper to do the work herself, it is
yery important that she should km w ,1 ow to do it
In order to direct others.
To wash properly, it is important to have every
thing in readiness, and all the utensils in order for
the work. Tubs sufficient in number and of suitable
Ilze should be furnished, and kept clean, the wash
boa. d should be smooth and free from nails, and the
Work bench firm and high to prevent fatigue from
bending.
Ti e clotb.es line and pins should be nut in a basket
or bag for safe keeping; hemp or cotton cord is bet
ter than a wire line.
Soft water is better than hard water for washing,
and rain water i r .durable to any other. When
everything-is in readiness for the work, assort the
Clothes, separate the fine from the coarse, and the
slightly soiled from the more soiled. Hot suds will
set stains, and it is therefore '. ed to scald all of the
table linen, and articles which are stained, by pour
ing boiling water iiom the t a kettle on them.
Have the water in the tul s as warm as the hand
Will bear, being careful not to have it too hot. Wash
first one boilerful, taking through two suds, then
place in a boiler of cold water, with soap to make
Buds. A little borax added to the water will whiten
the clothes, without injuring the texture of linen.
Clothes should never boil over five minutes, and
many excellent laundresses do not boil them at all,
but pour boiling water over them. After they are
removed to the tubs, col l waler should be poured
over them, and every garment turned wrong side
out, and thoroughly washed, and rinsed in a tub of
clear soft water. Th *n in blue water, from which
they should be wrung out for the List time: those
not to be starched should be hung out immediately,
and the others dipped in starch as hot as the hands
Will bear. Those desired to be very stiff should be
starched first, and well shaken before hanging on
the line to prevent wrinkling.
When dry remove to the clothes basket. Turn all
garments right side out, shake well, pull smoothly,
beginning a. x he'top of the garment, roll each to
Itself; fold sheets without sprinkling, after stretch
ing and lay on top, over all spread the ironing
blanket.
Isa machine is u>ed in washing, it is better to
Boak the clothes <>v- rn’g’.t in warm water. Some
housekeepers use wusuing fluids, and if the ingredi
ents are harmless, they lighten the labor, without
distroying Uie fabric. The following are among the
best fluids—
To live quarts of water put one pound of salsoda,
half a pound of unpacked lime, and a small lump of
borax. Boil, when cold pour off and bottle. Use
one teacupful for every boiler of clothes.
Washing Fluid-One tablespo* nful of soda, and
one teacup of coal oil to ten g..l ons of water.
Wa Ling Fluid—One halfabarof hard soap, one
Ounce euc’n of • .ilt: etre and boa < disolved in four
quarts of water, when cold add five ounces of
Spirits of ammonia. Bo: tie and use as soap.
Washing Fhi I Equal parts of turpentine and
ammonia. Add to water.
Ox gall soap is an excellent article for use in the
laundry. Take one pint of gall, cut into it two
pounds of bar soap, and add one quart of boiling
water. Boil, mid p uroutto cool, cut n squares.
Add to the Buds used lor w Biting.
Before washing llauncl-, 'lust and shake well, and
never apply soap, but make strong suds.
For washing w olen and silk goods, never rub
them, but cleanse by drawing them through the
hands, up and dov. nin the suds. Rubbing shrinks
them.
Never wash woolen goods or blankets on a cloudy
day.
For washing colored cotton goods great care is
necessary to preserve their freshuc s: s itecns, ging
hams, cal icves. and ram-Hns washed in warm suds
will retain their freshness a long time. They should
never bo left long in the suds, but should be washed
anddiLla pedily as jo -ib e.
Ammonia may !>.• used instead of soap for goods
Hal lo to fade. I a < pepper put in the w::t r in
which bull, giay, or black dresses are washed wi.l
preserve the color.
Fru t stains may le removed by wetting with

o
“Woman’s Work.”
The above is the title of a new monthly
journal that is edited by Mrs. E. R. Tennent,
of Marietta, and we heartily commend it to
our lady readers. “Woman’s Work” tills a
long felt want of our southern women and
should receive encouragement and help of
every southern woman. Philadelphia gives us
the “Ladies Journal,” Minneapolis the
“Housekeeper,” and Springfield, “Good
Housekeeping;” all good journals, but none
better than our own home monthly “ Woman's
Work.” This magazine is edited by women
and for women; it embraces the department of
literature, art, fancy work, health notes,
mother's corner, flowers, small fruit culture,
and children’s department. It is full and
complete on every subject interesting to
women. It is only fifty cents a year, and
every lady wlro will send for it will not regret
it, and will find it is worth five times the
amount of her money. There is not a page in
the entire journal that docs not contain sen
sible suggestions or beautiful thoughts. Be
sides getting a good magazine our women
would be lending a “helping*hand” to a lady
who richly deserves their encouragement, for
she is striving hard to build up a good south
ern journal full of instructions for both old and
young. Subscriptions to “Woman’s Work”
should be sent to T. L. Mitchell, Athens, Ga.,
proprietor.
Hints to Housekeepers.
Fruits of all kinds should be kept cool.
A clothespin apron should have a place in every
laundry.
In polishing shoes, if the blacking is moistened
with a little milk instead of water, they will polish
with less time and effort.
Pieces of stale bread may be dipped in an egg,
fried brown in batter, and served as an omelet.
A tablespoon ful of turpentine boiled with white
clothes w ill greatly aid the whitening process.
For chapped hands dissolve two ounces of glyce
rine, two teaspoon tub borax, in one pint of water.
Turpentine is almost a sure remedy for croup.
Saturate a piece of flannel with it; and put it on the
chest, and in a severe case three or four drops on a
lump of sugar may be taken inwardly.
A few quince seeds boiled in water and perfumed
will keep the hair in curl longer than any other
preparation.
To i remote the growth of the hair take a teacup
of sage, steep in a quart of soft water, strain, add
one-half teaspconftil of borax and spenge the head
with the mixture, using a stiff brush.
When removed from the person, C’othing, if damp,
should be dried before putting into tue clothes
basket, to prevent mildew.
To clean men’s clothing take a pint of cold water
and add to it a quart of cold c o lee and a teaspoonful
ofamonia. Use a sponge and rub the spots thoroug
ly. Sponge the garment all over, then hang on the
back of a chair and let dry in the shale. For light
clothes omit the coffee, usmgany kind of good soaj).
A pail or tub of fresh cold water, renewed several
times in the course of twenty-four hours, will absorb
all the evil cd >r of paint in a day or two. The
taste of the water after an hour will prove the
thoroughness of its work.
To *et the color in black or dark hosiery, calicoes,
cambrics, etc., put a large tablespoonful of black
pepper into a pail of water, and let the articles lie
n soak for a couple of hours.
An ex cel ent glycerine for chaj >p ? d hands
is ma le by melting, witli gentle heat, two ounces of
of sweet oil of almonds, half an ounce of spermaceti
and one drahm of white wax. When melted, remove
from the stove and add an ounce of glycerine, and
stir until the mixture is cold. The ointment can be
scented with any perfume to suit the fancy. Keep
it in wide mckcd bottles.
A novel method or removing grease from cloth,
woollen or silk goods, and especially applicable
to goods of a delicate texture where the coloris
easily injured, is the use of potato water. Grate the
potatoes to a pulp and add water to the amount of a
pint to a i ound. Let it stand, and when clear pour
olf all but the potato sediment at the bottom. This
is your cleaning mixture, to be applied with a clean
linen rag, and ibllowe I by the use of asmall amount
of spirits of wine. Iticlit on a very delicate shade
of blue silk, removing every trace of grease without
injuring the color in the least.
Bryant's Tender Conscience.
The following very pretty anecdote is told of
William Cullen Bryant, the poet, by a former asso
ciate in his newspaper office, which illustrates the
good man’s simplicity of heart. Says |the narrator:
“One morning many years ago, after reaching Lis
office, and trying in vain to begin work, he turned
to me and remarked :
“ ‘I cannot get along at all this morning.’
“ ‘Why not?’ I asked.
“‘Oh,’ he replied, ‘I have done wrong. When on
my way L<r3 a little hoy flying a kite passed me.
The string of the kite having rubbed against my
lace I seized it and broke It. The boy lost his kite,
but I did not stop to pay him for it. 1 did wrong. 1
ought to have paid him.’ ”
This tenderness of conscience went ’a” toward
making the poet the kindly, noble, honorable and
honored man that he was, whose death was felt as a
loss throughout the land.
o
Sunshine in the Home.
From Philadelpb’a Times.
“I’m bound to have sunshine in my house,” said
a bright-faced, cheery-voiced West Philadelphia
matron. “1 mean the sunsbin? that comes from a
happy disposition. Many a child goes astray, not
b-‘caU'-e there is a want of prayers or virtue at home,
but simply because home lacks sunshine. A child
need*smiles as much as flowers need sunbeams.
Children look beyond the present moment, though
many of us think that they don’t. Isa thing pleases
they are apt Uj see it. If home is the place where
faces are sour and voices harsh and fault-finding in
the ascendant, they will spend as many hours as
possible elsewhere. The great shady of my life is to
make my husband and children happy. Come out
to my house some day, > r. Reporter, and see if it
isn’t so.

Cooking Recipes.
[FOR WOMAN’S KIN’GIXjM.]
A lady from Mobile sends the following

Suggestions for Jelly-Makers.
B. Marie Muder, in Good Hous keeping.
Several requisites are necc.-sary for succos-ful
jelly making. Eir t among these is the using of
vessels upon which acids, found more or lc>s in all
fruits, will have no effect. For this purpose
earthernware is always preferable, and wooden or
silver spoon> for skimming, etc. The best granu
lated sugar, pint for pint, always give the most satis
factory results. Fruit intended for jelly must not
be over-ripe; rather the reverse. Do not undertake
to boil more than two or tb.ee glasses at oneboiling,
since too large a quantity involves longer cooking,
which make . e ly tough and ropy, instead of crisp
and firm. Poll and skim the juice before adding the
sugar which should be heated before incorporating
it with the juice. White, Shaker flannel makes the
be-t bag for straining the juice.
The pio ess ol jelly making should bo completed
the same day, bearing in mind that, bright, fair
weather improves the color and flavor of jelly. To
test jelly for the pui pose of ascertaining whether it
is cooked sufficiently, drop ft small quantity into
ice cold water, and if it sinks to the bottom at once
and does not spread, it is done. When a clear,
transparent color is desired, only such juice as cirips
through the bag without squeezing, should be ve?d.
When ready to put away, cover the surface with
paper previously dipped in alcohol, brandy or wine;
or rub the under side of paper with a little fresh
butter, which is equally good for keeping oT the
mould. Jelly keeps best in a dark, cool, dry place.
Ribbon jelly, or that made in two colors, is done
in this wise: Fill one-fourth of a jelly-glass full of
some light colored jelly, such as green grapes.
When set, color a similar quantity with a few drops
of prepared cochineal; carefully pour over this red
layer, and so continue till the glass is full. Or
make plum and green grape jelly at the same time,
and alternate till your mould is full.
It is not generally known that the gelatinous sub
stance in grapes is in its prime about one week be
fore they are ready to turn, and at that time make a
most delicious, delicately flavored, amber-colored
jelly, requiring only a few minutes’ boiling, provid
ed the sugar is first heated.
The parings of quinces, ftppies, pears, when
thoroughly boiled in water enough to cover, make
an excellent jelly. This is an item worth remem
bering when fruit is high and scarce. Jelly which is
not very firm can be set aside for spreading on jelly
cakes. Bits ot jelly left over from the table may be
whipped with the white of an egg and a little lemon
juice, until quite white and stiff; then set away in a
cool place and use on pudding as a meringue.

a trip to G.orgia to sec the great exposition and the
president, but of all tiiat I would like to see, J will
confess that I would liko to see Aunt Susie al o o
all. I see some one asking about making wax
flowers; perhaps some of the sisters wool I like to
know how to make or to h ive a stand of flowers
made that I make. They are just as durable as any
thing of the sort can be, as they tire made of cloth,
and they are considered very pretty indeed by ail
that have seen them. There is a number of differ
ent kinds of flowers made, moss roses, geraniumns,
ftischias, crushed roses and other kinds that form a
lovely boquet when Any one wishing to
know more of them may address me with stamp for
reply. 1 have some excellent wine recipes whi- h I
will send if any of the sisters would like them. I
wool! send them now, but my letter i • getting
lengthy and I am afraid that the editress might not
like for me to stay too long, so I will close,by asking
her to suggest a name for my little baby girl.

Mrs. E. R. Tennent, Marietta, Ga.- Il has been
quite a while since I made a contribution to
Woman's Kingdom, but nevertheless I have Con
tinued a faithful reader, never laying down the
Kingdom without feeling that 1 know more than I
did before its perusal. How a woman does love to
get new dots! 1 will never forget my experience
learning to make bread. A premium had been
offered at a coming f tir in my county for the best
loaf of yeast bread. I knew that bread consisted of
wheat flour, yeast, a little salt and h aven, but how
much of each or how p it together, I did not kno w.
Yet I resolved to contend for the premium. I made
my first loaf. The recipe called for one yeast cake,
but I thought two would make it so much lighter;
so I used two. You would have thought there were
a dozen in it. Then I weut o i the other extreme,
trying to see how little 1 could use, in order to avoid
that yeasty ta te. Somebody told me that if I was
going to try for the premium to use half flour and
half corn starch. J did so, and the I< as turned out
to be splendid material for a headstone. Then I tried 1
alum for whitening the bread, but must have used
too much, as my bread was of that hue known as
baby blue. J changed the yeast and tlie quantity
several dozen tim s. Once I used yeast made of
ptachtree leaves. The bread tasted like it had Eten
flavored with csscnse of bitter almonds. Aly hus
band asked me one day if I had ever tried vanilla or
lemon or celery see J. At lust I concluded that my
failures could not be attributed to my Jack of skill,
but concluded that the flour was in fault. I sent to
Minneapolis forabairel ot Pillsbury's Patent. I
bought a pan with a cover. I.supplied myself with
every material and every device that 1 thought
w uld aid mo in making the premium loaf. At last
1 succeeded in making perfect bread, and carii d off
the blue ribbon. I found out that I had put myself
to a great deal of unnecessary trouble, but I learned
the plttfalls and know how to make bread fur all the
future. Ihftve given my experience to show that
experimenting is not awa tc of time and material.
I wasted a good deal of time, but was it not better
than to daily set be ore my family the poorest quality
of bread? 1 had about the same experience with
sponge cake.
Mrs. J. T. IL, Spartanburg, H. C’.—Tn my two
bright, happy years of married life, we took and en

sorrow and death came upon me to write. Who has
had a sadder fate than mine.’ A kind, loving bus

because 1 crave sympathy so much that I writenow,
and I know there arc plenty of the dear Eisters who
will freely give it. My husband, who was a doctor,
fetrugglcd so land for his education—fur he was left

Cun for the Children—The Constitution
Craintug School for Boys and Girls.
Mv Pear children: Ono of the girls in
her letter said: “Aunt Susie, do ■write and
give your experience at the exposition.” Well,
Children, I had so much experience that I
don’t know how to give it, or where to begin.
I n my last letter I told you how late I was get
ting homo one night and my family all thought
I was lost, but that time was nothing to what
happened afterwards. I tell you there was
such a big crowd that it was hard to get home
at all, but we all had a great deal of fun and
although it rained and the mud was deep,
everybody kept in a good humor and laughed
and joked and had a good time. There was
only one thing that kept mo feeling kind of
sorry, and that was, that! could not see all the
children that were here and were looking for
mo. A gentleman said to me one day: “Did
you see a fine looking man with two little
children that was looking for you?” and often
someone told me they met children that wero
looking forme, but it was like “hunting for a
noedlo in a hay stack,” and you know how
hard that would be. Whenever I met a lady
or gentleman with some little children, I felt
like telling them who I was, but I thought
they mightsay, “Well, who is ‘Aunt Susie?’ I
never hoard of her before;” and then you
know I would have felt awfully cheap, so I
concluded it was best to keep silent. I wish
you could all have seen the beautiful fire
works, sky rockets, and bombs, and many tiro
pieces that wero very beautiful. But 1 know
you want, to hear about tlie president and wife.
Early Tuesday morning I went out to the
grounds and got a good scat where I could see
the procession ; we had to wait a long time,but
at last we saw the Governor's Horse Guard,
and we knew they were all coming; then the
cannon began to fire and the bells to ring, and
wo knew the first man and lady in all the land
wore about to make their appearance. After
the soldiers camo a beautiful carriage drawn
by six white horses, each horse ornamented
with vines and flowers and the carriage a bed
of roses and buds. On the back scat sat Presi
dent Cleveland and his pretty wife. Ho is a
great big coarse looking man, but has a lino
face. Mrs. Cleveland is a very pretty bru
nette, dark brown hair and eyes, and dark
skin, rather tali and well made; to look at her
when her face is in repose you would not think
her so very handsome, but she has one of those
sweet smiles that light up her whole face, and
when she looks at you and smiles, why, you
fall in love witli her right away. 1 met her
twice and had quite a little chat with her and
found her just as pleasant as possible. Now I
have told you about Mrs. Cleveland, 1 must
tell you of some of the pretty things I saw.
There was a great deal of nice work by the
children; a little girl only eleven years old
took a premium for tlie best apron, and it was
beautifully made; no machine work, but the
lace sewed on byjhand, and the hemming done
just as neatly as possible. Another little girl
took a premium for her quilts; she had two,
one made last year and one this year, and she
is only eight, years old now ; they were beauti
fully quilted and all her own work. I wish I
had her here to help mo quilt mine. Then
another girl took a premium for the best cro
cheted edging; it made mo think of you all,
and how I wished you could have seen the
crochet patterns; I believe there wore nearly a
thousand, and crazy quilts, you never saw the
like before. I heard a lady say she looked at
crazy quills until when she weut to bed at
night whenever she shut her eyes sho saw
crazy quilts and when she went to sleep sho
dreamed of them all night. If I were to write
all night I could not tell you of half the pretty
things that were to lie seen, but I will tell you
of a visit I had from a very intelligent lady
from Charleston, S. C., and a compliment sho
paid you all. Sho was a perfect stranger to
me, but said she wanted to see “Aunt Susie,”
and so came. Sho asked to sco my scrap
book and admired it very much; then she
looked at the squares for my quill ami laid
each one out on her lap and read the name of
each little girl and said how pretty and neatly
th y were made; then she asked about my
Bible, and said she thought my children had
improved very much in their letters and how
much interested sho was in them. You don’t
know how proud it made mo feel. Sho asked
me what I thought the children would give me
next, and I told her I did not know, but I
guessed they would like to give me a house
and lot if they could, which made her have a
good laugh. As the children say to me so
often, “I know this letter is too lengthy,” so
good-night. Yours, “Aunt Susie.” .

May L. Perry, St. Simcn’s Mills—Reading Betsy*
Hamilton’s letters remind? me of some stories I
heard my mother tell. During the war they refu
gecd in the up country among the Georgia crackers,
and she use I to delight to get her sisters mid
brothers around some boy or girl and quiz her.
One girl asked her on seeing a carpet, “why her mar
nut sech a pr tty connterpaeo on de flo;” asking tho
name oi a dog, its owner replied, “Jilts names
Floradfty, but we un call him Flood for short.”
Another tol l her she had had quite a compliment
paid her; “a young man said tother day you was do
prettiest gal in tho settlemant.” She asked ft girl
if she I ad ever heard of Jupiter, Vonns, Pan, etc.;
she said she had seed old Venus in Burney’s inter
p.iteli coming along, in 1 scoured many a pan, but I
never heum tell of air one Icing a God.’’ Mama
said, “Bate, would you not like to go oil'and see lino
houses, bcautilul pictures etc?” Witli a toss of her
head she replied, “no I never did hanker atter
sech; wl»at de eye dont see <le heart dontembe.”
This same girl came witli her mother one day and
began telling of a sapper sho had been to. Alter
listening for some time her mother drafted out,
“now Rate, you dry up, en let some body else take a
dip.’’ And I think I had better do the same, or tba
waste basket will all laugh to itself. lam going to
school now, but 1 will have limo to answer any
letters from the c insins. Aunt Susie, I hope you
will write us your experiences at the exposition.
