Mr. Albert Rhodes, who seems to
have identified himself with the G al

comes before us this month in a new
character, and discusses for the first
time an abstract tpiestion "The Coming
Marriage." He could not have chosen
a happier theme. There is not, per
haps, in the whole range of magazine
subjects one v.!:':1. vi'i:M claim more
u if versa! ivUer.tior.; tor marriage lias
a surpassing interest for every honest
human being, from budding nine to
hoary ninety. The writer considers
his subject in all its bearings as a pro
moter of virtue and social life and
economy and health; he glances at the
difTteuities and dangers of the under
taking, the questions of wealth and
breeding, and social equality, the mar
riage customs of different nations, and
gives some statistics which we com
mend to the notice of. all bachelors and
widowers.

The delightful task of house- clean
ing has coiae round again, and we bid
it Welcome. To those of us who havi.
been "through the mill" repeatedly ir
has no terrors,, but we remember t!:-:
time; when it was more to be dreaded
than tho toothache; and cut of con; -passion
to young housekeepers we
throw out a few hints. The placet;
begin house cleaning is in closets, draw
ers, and trunks. During the wint'::.
unless one's whole house is wanned,
these become disorded.
All carpet rags and materials for
quilts and comforts should be gathered
together, and an inventory be made ol
ail dry-oods in the house, so that tl.
housi-kcepir will know exactly vh.it
Shi1 h:i-' on hand. All old shoes shou!.'
be removed to an out-house to be plat;,
ed oat around trees and vines. This i
hettoi- thnii throwing them away o
j burning them up. Then the curtains
j should be taken down, washed, ironed.
and laid away until the windows aie
ready for them. The cleaning and
scrubbing should begin at the top o,
tlie house and go down; at the front o'.
the house and go back. One nfo'iii :..
a time should be torn to pieces andrt
to right. In this way tho unultu nU :
confusion often attending house clea:
ing can be very much diminished a-'.-tin-re
will be one room where the tir-.: 1
housekeeper can sit down in peace.
If whitewash is to be applied, let '
be done after the carpets are taken u,
and le fore the paint is cleaned. .
pa-ntittg is to be done, it should si: '
ceed the whitewashing, ind paperi:.,;
walls come after that. It i:; better I',
extend tin "agony" over two orthre;
weeks and take it easy- than to get i'.
! ;u;i over in one and neaily kill o
self, especially where hired help is 1... '
j em:loved.
In cleaning paint, whiting is bet.,' :
than soap, as it does not eat the hs: . i
a winduw-brush is iuJispeiisabi'" i;;

t stains out. When the kitchen, wo..
j house, cellar, and out-houses hove ;.;'

the bedding may be washed. To
with a washer and wringer, thin .::
very easy task; all xve bargain t.r s
flannel-soap, abundance of soft w.i,:
and a clear, breezy day. Flamiel-soa:
contains no resin, and leaves wool :.
goods as soft and fleecy as when th-
were new; resin hardens the fibres -:
wool. If the water is hard ten com:
worth of borax will soften it.
There are certain conveniences wh.ch
materially lessen the drudgery of
house-cleaning. A step-ladder mn'.:e3
less demand on the muscles than ch;.;r.7
and tables used as substitutes. A carpet-stretcher
aids Yery much in it
ting down carpets. This i3 merely '
steel comb (about twice as .long uod
wide as the common dress-comb) set
in a long handle. A wall-brush, which
is a common brush with one end roLott
and the other stt in a long handle, v. il'
make, the tiresome stretching up ot
one's arms in cleansing ceilings uuie ;
( s: ary. Of course we will have n
and scrubber, and not get down on
humls and knees to cleanse floors.
Strict attention should be paid '.
