A hostess is supposed to gi vo her attenf ion

tho enjoyment of her guests, and so natural
is the instinct of hospitality that women do
this to a certain extent involuntarily, hut
many other times, with perfect unconscious
ness, they place their truest in an awkward
situation. I was forcibly reminded of this

ineio was out one resource as
carelessly and quietly ns possible to keep an
eyo turned hostessward. for the owner of the
strange iosscs.ioii must lo familiar with its
use.
It chanced that the joke loving man men
tioned had been assigned tho honor of es
corting his hostess to tho table. Being a
careful student of human nature, it did iot
take him long to form the conclusion that his
neighbors were lilled with a sense of the pos
sibility of making a faux pas, and ho as
quickly determined that somebnlv should d?
this if he could effect it. WLut cared he
whether it partially fell upon bis own head
if he could get a joko on somebody else? So
when the liah came on aud proved to bo an
flalxirately made dish for which this singu
lar affair might possibly bo the articled
use, there was an almost imperceptible lull,
n. succession of quick glances toward the
head of the table, and a hesitating flutter of
hands, and this joker submitted his hostess
to such a running lire of questions that she
was the very last person to take up her
fork and calmly begin to eat. Then
followed a succession of courses for
which tho articles of use so obviously
suggested themselves that thcro could
Lo no mistake, and then camo a punch
in which were frozen rum, cherries, while on
tho plate which held the pretty punch glass
was a little of something which afterward
proved to be a strange sweet East Indian con
diment. Again tho half anxious lull, and
again was tho attention of the hostess en
chained and diverted until some woman more
bold and self confident than those about her
seized an ordinary little gold spoon and
straightway, like a flock of geese, every one
followed the leader. Then came terrapin
served individually in yiaper cases, and now
Hr. Joker had his fun. His hostess was in
such absolute convulsions of laughter over
his funny stories that eating would have re
sulted in choking had she attempted it, and
by the time she dipped this new Queer sooon
into the dish he had the satisfaction of feel
ing that two-thirds of his friends had made
an exhibition of greenness.
So much did this amuse his highness that
he declares some day ho shall give a dinner
in which everything shall bo served in and
eaten with newfangled dishes and imple
ments, and tho only regrets shall be the
know everything, never mistaken sort of
persons. Tho moral of the contretemjis is
that a hostess, thoughtful and kind, whose
housekeeping appurtenances are novel and
likely to be unfamiliar to friends perhaps
less favored with that power for assessing
new innovations, should avoid tho possibility
of making them feel awkward, not of course
by keeping her possessions locked away In
her silver safe or her china closet, but by
setting quick example of what use to put the
new thing, or, as might easily have been done
iu the above case, having the spoon sent to
each individual at the same time and on the
same plate with the paper caso holding tt
terrapin. There could then have been no
mistake and no discomfort, while the service
would have been quite as pretty. "S. S E

f But coming down to the detail of tho thing,
there is no surer vay to make a child with
any tendency to untruthfulness cherish the
tendency than to let him know that you are
aware of the tendency, and to let him know
it, most of all, in any obnoxious way.
It is possible that with a child with
whom you have established a confiden
tial intimacy, so that he considers you
raore as his dear friend than as his cor
rector and overseer, you can let such knowl
edge of yours be known, and can become,
agreeably to him, a fellow watcher with him
elf over the fault. But this is not a very
frequent possibility, since children's inti
mates and confidants are liable to be of the
same age with themselves, and it is rarely
that they do not look up with a little awe
and distance upon the person, whoever it
may be, that is appointed to take care of
their morals and behavior.
But there is one course that can always be
pursued, and that is never to let the child
for a moment dream that you suspect him
of the wrong doing or saying. Unless it
ahould be absolutely necessary, for some rea
son better known to yourself, that you should
betray your knowledge, keep it to yourself
and maintain your watchfulness, but let the
cniia nope that you consider his standard of
truthfulness to bo as high as auy ia the
world. You can do it without either deceit
or untruthfulness on your own part if you
look to it with care and are precis in your
statement as to what tne child ought to be
rather than as to what he is.
Once given a reputation to live up to, a
character to maintain, and the child's pride
comes to the rescue, bis sense of honor Is cul
tivated to th point of giving birth to truth
fulness, and thenceforward noblesso oblige,
until at lost he seizes on the real beauty and
jValueof truth, upon which truth itself
.obliges. And on tbe otto Imad, If you would
-make the little liar a big' liar and eternally
'd liar, then constantly confront him with the
'fact that be is a liar already; . He will hare

Mi
Ono in often tempted to smile at somo of
tho questions relating to etiquette, asked
through tho columns of the press by young
men and women. Tho answers are so obvi
ous to ei-sons of more mature age and ex
M'rienco that one cannot help wondering
why thexe young people do not consult their
parents, for, making duo allowance for the
case of orphans, many of those who seek in
formation in this way must possess fathers
and mothers. Alusl it has probably never
occurred to tlieso young jieisons that they
should consult their parents in kindred mat
ters; and viewed in this light, the subject
becomes both a sad and a serious one.
i iiu iaincrs anu mothers or our day are
certainly to blame for this state of things;
they have, in many cases, allowed their
children to grow up much like unbroken
colts, in tho matter of social discipline and
restraint, and when they at last ljegin to see
for themselves the necessity of finding .out
and obeying social laws, they turn away
from their parents to seek other sources of
inlormation, bocauso they have never leen
taught to take counsel of their natural
guanliuiis.
.Many mothers seem to think that if thev
attend to the details of housekeeping, pro
vide their children with clothing and pay
their school bills, they have done all flint
can bo required of them. Others, again,

Tlie "Old Baby's" Grief.
What a curious thing it is to think that
that wonderful new baby will turn into a
commonplace old baby in a year or two that
with the advent of number two his reign is
over.
A little girl, though she is only 2 years
old, takes an interest in that new baby, feels
that she must help take care of it, goes about
maternally airing its garments and holding
the pincushion for nurse, delights in its baths,
and leasts about her baby brother before she
can talk plain. But the boy that is another
matter. lie scowls wheu that wrinkled
piece of humanity is presented to him. and
refuses to kiss it lie wants none of it. Why
should it have his place on mamma's shoul

munaane affairs will permit him to think of

great. Life has altered signally for him.
He feeis it to his heart's core, if he is made of
iensi:ive stuff.
It is all very well for Bridget to take him
into tho kitchen and tell him to "be a nice
lad, an' she'll make him a cake." He wants
his mother; he never was turned out of
mother's room before. His heart is full.
Well for him, at this time, if ho has a grand
mother ready to make him her idol, a little

Let the Girls 1 torn p.
ilost mothers have a dread of romps, so
they lecture the girls daily on the proprieties,
and exhort them to be little ladles. They
like to see them very quiet and gentle and as
prim as possible. The lot of such children
is rather pitiable, for they are deprived of
the fun aud frolic which they are entitled to.
Children boys and girls must have exercise
to keep them healthy. Deprive them of it,
and they will fade away Lke flowers without

the nursery with calisthenics or gymnastics
will not invigorate the system like a good
romp in the open air.
Mothers, therefore, who counsel their little
girle to play very quietly make a mistake.

Improvement of the Hair.
But hair must be carefully cultivated to
grow even in length, supple, silken and
graceful in color. Everything is eneourag
ing for the improvement of hair if time can
!e given it The sumo treatment will not do
for different kinds of hair by any means.
Htrong, stiff, naturally moist hair needs a
weekly shampooing and daily aud nightly
brushing, with exposure to tho morning and
evening sun, which is a great stimulant to
the hair. Thin, soft, dry hair ncels tender
care, but with either the first step toward
improvement is thorough washing of the
scalp and hair, which collects dust its entire
length. To cleanse it tho various alkalies,
borax, ammonia, carbonate of potash and
washing soda aro used, and the strong hair
will bear them, but they burn the life out of
thin, dry hair.
Tho Venetian ladies drew their hair through
a crownless hat and let it stream over tho
brim to dry, and you may follow theexample.
sitting in tho sun if possible an hour. Light
is a groat stimulant and preservative to hair.
and it is well to oiien it when dry and let the
wind blow through. The sun will cause the
natural oil of tho hair to flow or the head
may be held to tho llio till the dry hair feels
moist. A smart brush ins: nisrht and morn
ing, careful braiding before sleep, and an
hour spent once a month clipping all forked
ends, will insure a rapid growth of hair, if
tho general health is good, without other
treatment. If you want a stimulant at nisrht
rub a little oil of lavender in the roots of the
hair with shampoo brush. Do not irritate
the scalp by hard brushing. Regular care is

Locked l"i for Company.
Among the stmngo fetiches that survive
among a race otherwise civilized and refined
is that of the parlor and best bedroom.
These are commonly the largest, coolest and
pleasantest rooms in tho house, fitted with
tho most attractive furniture, cariicts and
pictures and locked up for company. Was
ever such folly? A man who affords him
self an agreeable apartment puts himself out
of it and will not let himself in unless the
clergyman is there, or unless somebody ar
rives from u distant city or another street.
it is letter to turn the juvenile population
of tho house into the parlor, to wear the best
carpets to shreds, to leave finger marks on
tho mantel piece, to let them jump on tho
be i iu tho best room until it has no more
spring in it than a restaurant chicken it is
wiser to do this than to close and sanctify
these apartments, involving them in solem
nity, dampness and a stuffy smell. Open the
blinds and windows and let the light and air
in; let tho children in, too, and live there
yourself. Don't have things too fine to use.
If you own a piece of furniture that you think
is too good for you, and that 3-ou fiud that
you can t live up to it, give it to a museum

Tender Morsels of Humanity.

Vse of a Clothes Tree,
A clothes tree, as you may know, is a stiff
affair, looking very much like the trunk of a
tree with several short, bare branches left at
t he top. If j-ou have one of these convenient
articles in each bed room the masculine mem
lers of your household may be induced to use
tho pegs instead of hanging up their clothes
on the floor. A walnut or cherry clothes tre

There are numerous wa3s to remove warts.
A good, simple and harmless way is said to
be the saturating of the wart with lemon
juice two or three times a day for several
days or a week. The wart will then disap
Iear gradually aud without pain, leavina: no
mark. Another way is to use common wash
ing soda and apply it frequently.
The best and simplest cosmetic for woman
is constant gentleness and sympathy for the
noblest interests of her fellow creatures.
This preserves and gives to her features an
indelibly gay, fresh and agreeable expression.
If women would but realize that harshness
makes them ugly, it would prove the best
means of conversion.
It you can only restrain a child from wrong
conduct by hurting it, I fear j-ou have little
to hope for in its future. At first it should
be good from love for you. It should obey
because you have proved yourself wise and
loving in its eyes. After, because you have
taught it to be honorable.
To keep the surface of your kid gloves
looking well, when you take them off smooth
them out lengthwise until they have about
the same outline that they have on your

gloves are rolled together into a wad, the
surface will soon present an unpleasing ap
pearance. ,
There are many skins which redden and
become irritated in summer, and when such
is the case saline draughts and lemonade
should be taken freely, while a wineglass of
vinegar in a pint of distilled water with a
little bran makes an excellent, if old fash
ioned, wash.
Never even scold a child for an accident
