JUST AND GENEROUS.
Shane and show, perplexity an-
noyance and ,ex'rdvagarlc' slily•'
crept into the cutouts of gift gim'.
ire. Though one. may stake a gift
out of the depth of the heart, and
do it becomingly and unassumingly,
yet it matins as if a dozen Influtices
were bearing on stint to force hill
into greater expense than he can
afford, or to give where he is relflc•
taut to do so, or where he• must
make a show of the article given.
Quiet, unostentatious, spontaneous
giving shines brightly, when we find
it, amid the tnre,iry heartlessness,
the gaudy shOW affil the heart burn

ma! giving that is a part of social
life.

WASHING WOOLEN 0001)s
The Bradford manufacturers send
out the following printed iu,itruct-
tons for washing blankets,' and the
system they recommend is usually
followed by the best of results :
The first tine blankets require
washing, put then) into cold water
and allow them to remain for twelve
hours ; then rinse them well ih
clean cold water. By this simple
process the sulphur (which iq used
by the manufacturer in bleaching)
is removed. Nothing now is re-
quired but tepid water, pure soap,
and labor, to produce a prefectly
clean and uninjured blanket. The
blanket is to be dried quickly, im-
mediately after washing, and no
scouring liquors, washing powders, 1
soda, or hot wa►t:er is to be used, as
these are spiculated to produce a
Muddy blutchy colour, and tender
the fabric, giving the appearance
of au old worn out blanket. Since
the intr du tioa of sulphur into the
process of fluisbiig and bleaching,
many blankets ure damaged from
the want of knowing the best mode
of treatment in washing tbenl. The
above remarks are equally applic
able to the washing of flannels.
ROAST TURKEY
After drawing the turkey rinse
out with several waters, and in the
next to the last mix a teaspoonful
of soda. Fill the body with this
water,- shake well, and ,rinse with
clean water. Prepare dressing by
by taking pieces of dry bread, pour
a little boiling water on them, cover
tightly, let stand until soft. Add
lumps of butter, three finally smash-
ed pototoes, pepper, salt, sage, and
two well beaten eggs. NIx thorou-

and tie a string tightly about the
neck. .Fill body and sew it up with
a strong thread. Tie the legs down
firmly, press the wings close to the
sides and secure with the cold
around the body. Steatn frons one
to three hours, or until easily pieres
ed with a fork. Remove to pan ;
place on the breast very thin slices
of pickled pork, sprinkle with pepper
and salt and dredge with flour.
Keep plenty of water in the pan
and baste frequently. Cook.. until

Mr: and Mr. Bowser.
1 don't believe Mr, Bowser is any
different from other Men iu the mat-
ter of 'supposing. he knows it all.
And, further, 1 suppose ho is like
all the fcst'af thein in refusing to
surrender his opinions when' beaten.
This i8 a trait in meta I cannot
understand, but I suppose uature
gave it to them when she created
therm lords of creation.
I am prepared to acknowledge
that I rebel against 1.[r. Bowser's
assurance and assuwptiou, and this
fact has led to the•famnily differences
which have appeared in print. The
other day I said to hien as lie came
to supper :
"You forgot your utubrella this
noon. Glad you got ]tome before
It rained."
"Dain—humph P" he muttered.
"What do you know about the
weather 1"
"Can't I tell when the sky looks
like rain 1"
"No, nor n0 other woman !"
"Mr. Bowser, it will rain before
morning." •
"There isn't the. least sign of it,
and it`thcro was you couldn't see
it !"
It began raining before we went
to bed, and I called his attention to
the fact. but lie went to the door
and remarked :
"Nothing but a mist arising fi.oi1
the ground—,lust as I predicted this
morning. It won't rain for a week."
"But it is raining. It is a regular
down -pour."
"Not one drop, Mrs . Bowser !
The stars would shine but for this
mist."
As luck would have it his beaver
overcoat had been put on tho • lino
to air, and -the girl brought it in
thoroughly soaked.
"If this isn't rain what do you
call 111" I asked as I showed him
the garment. • '
"I call it a pieco of cold-blooded
malignity !" he hissed in reply.
"Iu order to carry your point you
sent the girl out to pour a dozen
pails of water over lny coat and ruin
it ! Mrs.• dowser, don't drive me
too far !
One evening something was said
about our courting days and I re-
marked to Mr. Bowser that he used
to call me his angel and promised to
hold one on his knee every evening
of our married lifo.
"My angel ! Bold you on my
knee 1' Mrs. Bowser, aro you -getting
soft-headed 1"
"But you 'did."'
"Never !"
"I 'can prove it by your love let-
,018"
"If you can I'll buy you a Ghon -
sand dollars worth of diamonds 1"
In -two minutes I had one of his
old letters before his eyes. In it he
not only 'called me au angol, but
put an extra "1" on the name.
"Haven't I proved it 1" I asked.
"Never 1 That isn't my hand-
writing at all 1"
"Mr. Bowser, do you deny writ-
ing me this letter, in. which you call
sue a dozen fond names, and in
which you urged mo to marry you
three months ahead of the day first
set l"
"Certainly I deny , it ! If you
levo any such letter it is a baso for -
gory, and the' ought,,to‘ ,be
sent to. state prison 1'
Oue evening I heard Mr. Bowser
saying t0 a gentleman friend that
the female sox were profoundly
ignorant of anything but fashion,
and the next morning I said to
him :
"I see that Fairchild is for re-
form."
"Who—what 1 Who is Fair-
child 1" he sternly demanded.
"Why, the secretary, of the trea-
sury, of course.
He advises that the revenues
should bo reduced by lowering the
tariff."
"Mrs. Bowser, are you going
crazy 1"
"No, clear, I notice that 32,000,-
000 acres of land have been restored
to the public domain since 1885."
"W -what 1"
"And that the crisis between
Russia and Austria cannot lung be
delayed."
"Mrs. Ilow'ser!" he said as he laid
down his knife and fork,"did l marry
a woinau or a 1Voodliull l Don't let
1110 hear any more such talk from
you as long as we live together 1"
We lost our cook agaiu last week
through JL'. lluwser's obstinacy. I
told him to send up a can of pump-
kin for pies, and he brought -up a
can of poaches. When he satdown
to tho table with his mouth all
for pumpkin pie, cools explaiuGd
how .he.had -Gltzujc>1-tlao-ottle>v—
"It can't bo possible," he replied.
"But you sent peaches, sir."
)on't you suppose I know
}um) -ins i
rom peaches s
full you
I got pu skins!"
"Here's 111 can, .sir, and if these
ars not preaches tight to bo sent to
au idiot asylum 1"
"Poaches—still ! Do , tt call these
peaches 1"
"I do,"
"I{uu1—yes ! Mrs, 11owser,
these peaches 1"
"Of course they are."
. ''.'snd I sent 'out up 1"
"Certainly, I just asked Smith
through the telephone, and he says
you asked fur peaches iustoad of
pumpkins." w
He does, eh 1 That settles Smith !
I'll never trade another dollar with
him ! It is evident that I sent up a
can of pumpkins, and that you two
women have fed it to the hogs and
substituted' peaches t0 spite toe ; it's
a joke I'll never forget—never !"
And lie went off in high dudgeon,
followed a little later by the girl,
who said to me as she went :
"Poor lady, but did you ever hear
of this stuff they call Rough ou
Rats 1" •

8, A, Cantelo% Propr,
"Did n't Know 't was
Loaded"
May do for a stupid boy's excuse ; but
what can bo said for the parent who
sees Itis child languishing daily and falls
to recognize the want of a tonic and
blood -purifier? Formerly, a course of
bitters, or sulphur and molasses, was the
rule in well -regulated families ; but now
all intelligent households keep Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, which is at once pleasant
to the taste, and the most searching and
effective blood medicine ever discovered.
Nathan S. Cleveland, 27 E. Canton st.,
Boston, writes: "My daughter, now 21
years old, was in perfect health until a
year ago when she began to complain of
fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness,
Indigestion, and loss of appetite. I con-
cluded that all her complaints originated
In impure blood, and induced her to take
Ayers Sarsaparilla. '!'iris medicine soon
restored her blood -making organs to
healthy action, and in due time reestab-
lished her former health; I final Ayer's
Sarsaparilla a most valuable remedy for
the lassitude and debility incident to
spring time."
J. Castright, Brooklyn Power•• -Co.,
liroohlyn, N. Y., says : "As a Spring
Medicine, I find a splendid substitute
for the old-time compounds in Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, with a few doses of Aym•'s
Pills. After their use, I feel fresher and
stronger to go tit'ough the summer."
