Women ami Home. St. Louis Miig.v/.ino : Nothing so helps : i woman through the long weary days of work as the Knowledge that what sue docs is appreciated by those Hho loves and for whom she toils. Think of this , husbands and fathers , and remember that ti kind word is always in season. If , on some morning , the colleo is a shade too brown to suit your taste , do not scold about itj and , on every other morning when it is delicious , say so. Try this way and you will find your coffee , and every thing else , to jour taste much oftener , and , besides , you will give the ones you ought to love best the swcot conscious ness that they are doing their work well , anil giving satisfaction to the one , of all others , they most desire to please , thus inspiring them with renewed energy to strive for the merited reward of kind , apprceiativo words. And BO shall an atmosphere of peace and sweet homo happiness como to pervade the whole house , born and nurtured into beautiful , fragrant blossoming by your own kind \\ordsanddccUs. Let us all remember , too , that the higher and happier our homo life , the more wisely and bettor wo may hope to do the work that lies waiting for us beyond it. A pleasant place to "come homo to" is the greatest energuer a man can have. Then let us strive with an earnestness and constant purpose to make and keep the homo cheerful , in vitiug and pleasant. Evcrv homo should bo brightly and tastefully furnished , froo'v ' if carefully used , and every table should bo regu larly spread with a reasonable variety of good , wholesome ttnd appetizing food. Kconomy is a very good tiling ; but when it degenerates into unnecessary "scrimp ing" it becomes meanness. The very poor are often obliged to stint ; but what their necessity makes a virtue , is really a crime in the comfortably situated. What are delicious things made for if not to be eaten ? The appetite claims a certain amount of what some consider luxuries to satisfy it , and this should bo supplied in a reasonable quantity at the homo table. A craving , unsatisfied stomach is a dangerous thing , whether it is the re sult of overindulgence in improper or the want of satisfying food. Tlic DaiiRlitcr'H Room. , The oaro of the sittlng-roomH and kitchens comes under the management of the grown-up portion of the family , but every little girl from ten years old and ui > winds loves to think that her bed room is her very own , her special do main. wha.ru she may reign absolutely , with nemo to dispute her right. Here , then , is the mother's chance , if she is only judicious enough to turn it to ac count. Encourage the little one by- all mean ! ) in the belief that the room is hers hers to beautify and adorn in any way which her fertile I'.ttlo brain may devise ; hers to retire to when she wishes to be nlono , either to do stern battle with her lessons , or uirl-liM ) , to dream her won derful day dreams ; and hers above all to keep in perfect order and neatness. This knowledge will RO a lonp ; way toward fosterinu in the child all those element of character so essential in the woman , and will be the moans of making her gradually e\crciso her individual tastes and ideas , and thus aenuiro'an interest m domcstio conconiH winch , under other circumstances , she might never obtain. Homo Adornment. New York Mail and Express : A lady well known in Now York society as the wife of n prominent banker , and dintin guished likewise for hur artistic talents , has Invented a new kind of work that Is likely to become popular with those whoso tastes lie in the same direction , and who arc , perhaps , tired .of the con volitional methods of painting. She has imported from abroaa a quantity of the material employed iu the manufacture cf tapestry. Upon this canvas she paints a design in exact imitation of the styl and color of old Gobelin. The effect i romarhably striking , and the observe , seems , in regarding it , to gazn upon an ancient and musty treasure from a foreign oign palaco. The work is done in ordi nary water colors , the tints being , of courfco , especially selected for the pur peso , whllo the drawing can bo copied from any appropriate picture and enlarged - larged to suit the fancy. The sketch should lirst bo made upon paper , then placed over the canvas and the outline ; pricKed through by moans of a ver\ sharp lead pnucil. This Is nnso * ar.y to insure absolute acurury in the drawing as it is impossibliHo erase a line onci made upon the material. A room pan nlt-il with tapestry of this sort innkoi : charming appraranro , though it necus sitntiis considerable labor and expense. A now way of ornamenting a dinner tahlo is to lay upon it R mirror RO lartrt that only a wlito enough margin is letter tor thn plates and glasses of the 'guests The mirror is round , square , oblong 01 OVA ! according to the shape of tha table. On ono ndgo Is a borctor of HOWOM , which must bo of ono kind only. At a recent dinner given in this city the immense mirror was placed on a cover of yellow ( ilk und.surrounded by tulips of the same hue. On the plateau itself were rows of silver candelabra with yellow candles and .shades. A Hooni fur Each Week. The widow of Coloucl TUomas A.Scott , the Pennsylvania railroad man , has built for herself in Philadelphia a residence of llfty-two rooms. She can move once every week In the year without occupy ing the same room for more than a week. How her less famed sisters will envy Airs. Scott. A New Ulan Ton. An "Kmpiro tea , " given by a New \ ork lady just on the cvo of the Lenten season , is still held up as a model for coming hoitesses. The linen was woven with the imperial coat-of-armsof Franco , ( a crown with the cipher "N" ) and a swarm of bees. In the center of the tnblo was placed an openwork silver tray , ( lllcd with purple and white violets ( the Napoleonic symbol ) massed in their own foliage in a bed of African fern. As thcni was little color , the light was high. Six silver candlesticks wore distributed Irregularly on the cloth , and at each of the four corners a low Sevres vase stood , 111 led with the same emblematic flowers , alternating hi whites and purples. Al though it is considered an encroach ment on delicate ground to mix flowers , this hostess ventured to plaeo nt each Plato one perfect Cornelia Cook rose in ail its foliage , and no complaint was made. After Kastcr tlicro are to bo many more teas of a somewhat similar kind , the coats-of-nrnis and svmbols of other countries offering possibilities that will be eagerly grasped. Food i UK tlio Bnliy. Marion Harland : This brings mo to speak brilly on an important head of this subject regularity in the time of feed ing. The differeuco between the coed and the naughty baby turns on this pivot as on anvthinir else. It is not a llxed natural law that a child is hungry when ever he cries. It is quite as probable that ho is too full if lie frets within : < n hour after a hearly luncheon. You can not begin too soon . to have lived pel iods for his meals. Commence with intervals of ono hour , widening them gradually until at three months lie will not expect nourishment oftener than once in throe houivs. The advantages of this s\stein are incalculable. The stomach has time for digestion and rest ; the child is not rendered importunate by the habjt of having .something poured down his throat whenever ho whimpers , ami the gentle , lacteal current , docile to regimen , fills the channels punctually at the rtoht time , leaving the mother com fortable in mind and body until that comes. The sooner you make of your baby's body a well roiiulated machine the bettor for you , for him and the gen eration following. How to Dust a Room. The proper way to dust a room , says a writer in the Now York Mail and Ex press , is to begin with tlic walls. I'in several thickness of cloth over a broom and sweep the walls down thoroughly , leaving at tlic same time all the doors and windows open. This matter of sweeping the walls is important , and should bo done once a week in rooms thai are much used. Then with a damp cloth wipe offtho picture cords or wires , the backsof , all the picture frames , and 'tho tops of'the door and window frames. If thorn is any danger of injuring pic tures or frames with a damp cloth use a dry ono , but wipe them all off carefully. As soon as you can got a good draft which will carry the dust out of the \yin- dow , shako and boat the curtains , whether they bo Holland , lace , scrim or what not , for they arc prime sin ners in the matter of harboring dust. The window sash , sill and glass -.liotild also receive attention. Use a largo clothwith half of it well dampened tor dusting , the dry and being useful to wipe off small articles lh.it might bo injured by damp ness and bo careful that you manipulate the cloth so as to wipe the dust into it and keep it there. If it gets dirty havu a clean ono , and always wash them out and scald them after using. If there are inside shutters to the windows they need to bo cared for almost as tenderly" a baby. A thorough cleaning every week , carefully wiping both upper and under sides of the slats , is the only thing that will keep thorn in decent order. A room Is not thoroughly dusted until all the furniture and woodwork and gas fixtures have been cleaned with the damp duster. Upholstered furniture should bo taken out , brushed all overand then wined with the damp cloth , not forgetting the under side. MUSICAL AND DUAMATIU.
