Bidrt. Bupioso you buy mall tack hammers
and papers of tacks to drive into blocks or
fihingles. Empty baking powder cans with
lids, empty liotbies without tho corks (which
are said to bo jKiisonous), largo glass marbles
f roll from 0110 to the other arrows the car
Iot, small bnmms to help mother with tho
sweeping, ran all bo included in tho list of
inexiiensivij toys.
To a mother, horrified at sight of the dingi
est stew iin in the cupboard, brought by
hor young hopeful into the parlor, where sat
a distinguished caller, was suggested tho idea
of buying cheap, now tinware just for the
children's play houe. Bright new tin pails
filled with tho smallest potatoes or apples
from tho cellar bin are sure to please. Could
tho lwiby hurt himself with an ogg beater to
whirl aljout? A ten cent one would answer.
Sirs. Gilmore allows her little folks to play
with the largo dripping pans. With a
worsted horselino tied to one handlo, tho be
loved dollies are given a fine sleigh ridti.
Whenever a neighbor of ours bakes a batch
of ginger cookies, her boy and girl hunt up
their wooden rolling pins. Each is provided
with a flat loard and a wad of the dough,
which is frequently dropped on tho floor and
stepjied on before it is placed in tiny scal
loped pans into the oven. This indulgence is
ranted only on days just before the scruo-
bing is done.
From the kindergarten dealers you can ob
tain a box of pasteboard inonoy for a quar
ter. These, with eight-cent pocketbooks and
a "store" stocked on chairs, will count on a
wholo afternoon's entertainment. Teach the
oldest children to "make change." Rig up a
tent with a blanket over tho dining room
chairs, or lend thom cast off clothing iu
which to "dress up." liut wo go on enumer
ating at tho risk of tho reader's fatigue.

Courtesy In tho Home Circle.
If tho head of the family its ruler speak
unkindly, it is tiecause the bonds that bind
them together are his safeguard. There is a
senso of security from exposure in family
pride, in part, but stronger than all else is
tho knowledge of the womanly love that
seeks to hide all errors. The wife or daugh
ter, and sometimes sister, are often spoken to
by tho "gentleman" of tho house as he would
not dare to speak to any other woman, how
ever insignificant. But more particularly is

Treatment of Injrowins Nails.
A very common and troublesome afTeetion
is that which is popularly termed ' tao in
growth ot tho nails," and which most usually
occurs by tho side of tho great toe. i ticro w
really no alteration in tho nail, as iis namo
would imply; tho surrounuing sot pai is r.ro
first swelled and inflamed by coiuUint press
ure against tho edge of tho nail from th j us.
of tight shoes. If this state is piM-mitt.-d to
continue, an ulcer is formeil in which tho
edgo of tho nail is imbedded, i'am u toe
consequence, sufliciently suvero in tsonvj in
stances to prevent walking.
Treatment for this condition of ten demands
the skill of a physician. The suhercr sn;;.:

addressed her. For a daughter, a father,
unless lost to all sense of shame, has usually
a pjuliar tenderness by which sho escapes
much of the oppression that other members
of the family are exposed to. Tho restraints
of society often prove a stronger protection
to the wife from her husband's irritability
and unjust censures than his professed affec
tion for hor. And more's the pity! It is
often the case that polite, deferential atten
tions will be more frequently proffered by
gentlemen outside the family circle than from
her husband. Do any need to be told where
unto this tends? The daily papers are full of
what may follow.
But cruel, unnatural and mean as this is,
it is not always confined to the masculine in
tho household. We wish we could prove
that a lady never "answers back," when "re
viled, revileth not again," never returns rail-

public gossips to hold her up to tho gazo of
the world il self-restraint is possible,
But all the courtesy and amiability, the
deference and respectful attention exhibited
in public or to friends outside, are worthless
to man or woman if the same are not more
earnestly extended to each in the sacred pre
cincts of home. Love that shines in the most
kindly acts, respectful attention, quick to
see what may be needed or gratifying the
most perfect courtesy at home or nowhere.
All that is found outside should be but tho
overflow of that which is unchanging and
perpetual in the charmed circle of home.
There is where we must seek for the true
lady and gentleman. If not fully developed
and sacredly maintained there, but promi
nently exhibited elsewhere, the sentiment is
spurious a counterfeit. Tender as may bo
the exhibition of that spirit which is tho
spark from God's altar that kindles tho home
fire, fond and loving, and caressing as may
bo its revelation, it never degenerates into
that overf amiliarity that is the bane to tho
best and noblest emotions. Mrs. Henry
Ward Beecher in New York Star.

Bints Concerntns Etiquette.
"For reasons which must be perfectly ob
vious," Aunt Ruth continues, "introductions
to voune women ought to bo made with
erreat caution. Ho who introduces a j-oung
man should first know his character and
habits to bo irreproachable; if there is mis
sionary work to be done let it be by those
having more judgment and experience than
a girl of 18. ' If an undesirable acquaintance
persists in calling, 'not at home' is tho proper
message to send him she is not at home to
him. and to call this form a falsehood, is
prudish. It might be preferable to send word
that she was engaged, which would be tao
same thing. Not to recognize him upon tho
street would be the cut direct and can be
necessary only in extreme cases. To fail to
return a call where there is no family afflic
tion and no explanation offered, is sufficient
to show to a lady that the acquaintance is to
dron. and is not often misunderstood. On
this subject an lingush writer has well saia:
'This etiquette, which may appear trivial
and over punctilious, is in reality a power
which society places in the hands of ladie3
to erovern and determine their acquaintance
ship and their intimacies, to regulate and de
cide whom thev will admit into tneir inena-
ship, and whom they will keep on the most
distant footing. As such it is to be com
mended.' It is a dissipation to have too long
a visiting list, we cannot know every oao
intimately and must make our selection ac
cording to taste and natural affinity.
"However much custom differs in different
places, it 'is usual to call only between tho
hours of 3 and 6. Formal calls need not
last longer than fifteen minutes; the more
social should not be extended until the caller
becomes a bore. You remember Mrs. Brown
whom we used to dread to see. Often mak
ing her appearance before lunch, and gener
ally on those days when your mother was
making a carpet or hanging some curtains or
when there was only enough 'left over' to go
round, she stayed till night. If sho cama
after lunch and Mrs. Strong or Miss Granger
appeared, Mrs. Brown was sure to monopo
lize the conversation and to out stay them.
Tho genus bore is ubiquitous and thero will
bo the usual number among your neighbors.
Your way is not to lot them get a foothold;
keep on your dignity till you have made your
selection of friends and unbend only to thorn.

tet the Bumped Cliild Sleep.
It is a general idea that if a child has a
fall, striking its head, and shows u tendeney
to sleep thereafter, every effort must be
made to keep it awaice. iovr, aceoi or .
one of our best physicians, this theory is a
mistaken one, and much harm is done i a t ry
ing to prevent sleep. Kest is what tae brain
of tho sufferer wants more than anytaiag
else, and, if not allowed, what might have
passed off in a few hours may result; in in-

months old to clean his tiny teeth, and keep
it up as regularly as j ou do your own. ueu

Towels, brushes and combs should be a;

When laid away for any length of time,
linen should lie washed, rough dried without
blueing, and laid in loose folds without much
weight on it.
