Th oing•up" shirts ie one of the ;most annoying and perplexing things that young housekeepers have to learn nor do they always learn to do the work well, In fact there are few 0 young or old housekeepers who eun laundry shirts well. 1.have been through the whole rout- ine of trials and troubles, and know All about it; but, at last, after consider. Able expense ltnd a vast deal of ex. 1prienoe, 1 believe that 1 have finally iovercom3 all obstacles, and can now truly and proudly say J can do up shirts and do thein well,. And, as 1 know how gladly I welcomed the glad tidings of how it was "done," I would like to tell the sisters of the Journal. First, on waoh-day, before hanging the shirts out to dry, 1 starch the bosom, cuff's and collars in common hot starch; though in freezing weather .. this would be best omitted. Then, when folding down the cloth - ,es, 1 sprinkle the hodies of the Blurts And tine -starch the bos ems, cuffs and. ,collars, as follows: J3or .each shirt I take one teaspoonful of starch, dividing it evenly, and plac- ingin seperate dishes, one of which should be tin. I dissolve both in cold water and place the tin dish over the fire, stirring constantly ; when boiling Add a piece of sperm candle about the size of a hazel -nut, and twice the size of coach -candle f these candles usually 'porno in sets called laundry candles) and a teaspoonful of gun -arabic water ;(which is made by dissolving two ,ounces of gum -arabic in half -a -pint of boiling water, then strained and bot- tled): let boil five minutes, then remove from the tire, and into it stir the cold Starch, I then staroli the parts to be etarchf'd, being careful not to brush off the small particles of polish which ad- here to the linen and arra needed to ;t help give it the gloss; the starch mast Ile rubbed in, the plaits raised with the fingers, so that the starch will pene- trate till through ev(-niy. \Vhen perfeciitly starched, I shake rent the starch well, told both sides of the bosom together evenly, pull the 'wristbands and collars into shape, lay them Smoothly upon the shirt,' then bin at the neck and roll the whole tightly tog'other, wrap in a towel and let retrain several hours before iron- ing. Now for the doing -tip. I first iron the back byfolding it lengthwise through the centre; next iron both sides of the sleeves .ind the wristbands ironing wrung side of the latter first then the collar -bitted, yoke and front of shirt, except bosom, Now, I place the bosom -board under the bosom, and stretch e,nd fasten securely, spread a wet cloth over and iron quickly with a hot iron, begin at the tt p and iron rntiuivards, continuing the operation l the bosom in dry, or nearly so. 7C then remove the husom-board and hang the shirt near the fire until thoroughly dry, when it is ready for polishing. When I spread the bosom on a smooth and very hard hoard, 1 dampen it a little with a cloth dipped in the abi nl water, and nuntildry thenilen uugum-arabic se .Q y therounded partthe polishing iron, using it briskly with short strokes, mostly crosswise of the bosom; this will put all the friction on a small part at one time, and gives the full benefit of all gloss in starch .or linen. bi any women have an idea that to put into starch the proper ingredients is all that is necessary to produce that mach desired gloss; but this is a mis- take. The ingredients only give body: and to bring out the polish properly a good polishing iron and a little elbow grease are required. This is a true Chinese laundry pol- ish, and if these directions are follow- ed, there is no reason why anyone can- not do up shirts as nicely as those coming from any laundry. Try it, and you will certainly be pleased.— Ladies Journal. Obesity induces to inaotibkty. probably why he fat oilioe boy seeks the man. ,1000. Kareeento in the Poultry ¥4nd• The many uses that kerosene may be put to in tho poultry yard make it ae almost indispensable article to be charged to the expense account, and no other article will so outhouse the profit of the poultry yards as kerosene diligently and intelligently used. ror painting the inside of nest boxes for sitting hens there Is nothing equal to it as it surely kills any vermin with which it cones in contact, and pre- vents other vermin from entering the. nest until it is entirely evaporated, which, if the crude oil is used, will give the lien ample time to hatch her brood. A few drops in the drinking water occasionally Iias a good i.efect upon the general health of the flock, and for colds or roup there is nothing better if carefully applied. Scally legs may be cured by simply wetting the legs of the fowls affected occasionally and the crude oil is best in this case also, as it takes a rnuch longer time to evaporate. When the crude oil is not readily obtained, some kind of heavy oil or greeso should be mixed with the kerosene to stay evaporation As a remedy for cholera it has been highly recommended, according to a correspondent in Fanciers' Review. Nature has lavishly provided cures for all the diseases flesh is heir to, but the proper preparation of many of them has not yet beau discovered. In Wilson's Wild Cherry we have a cure for Coughs, Colds, Whooping Cough, Croup and kindred ail- ments, prepared from vegetable drugs, in a pleasant and consecrated form, and which invariably gives prompt relief and effects a speedy cure.

Have we not noticed within the last few years a change in the demeanor of society girls against the other sex. How shall we define it ? A kind of brusque audaciousness in converse - tion with a soupcon of slangy chaff; an affectation of assuming to know re of what is what than their tilers or grandmothers were ever -milted or supposed to know. Do y not often go perilously near the der line which corlvonance pre• ibes shall not he overstepded z We not mean this lnet iii the sense in ich it is alleged, and, truly, that ••ancestresses of the last century ught it no shame to call a spade a de, and when young demoiselles of sibility and vivacity used to sigh r the misfortunes of Ularisaa Her- e, or divert themselves over the adventures of Toni Jones and Sophie Western, It is something quite different from that that the pros• ent race of young women affect. It is rather a total want of eentiment that prevails. In former days the sex were wont to appeal to men from their softer, gentler, weaker side. Now it is the reverse. They appear to aim at meeting men on their own platform and consorting them as like to like—from a .man's standpoint rather than a, woman's. A girl now' allays will unabashed chaff her male ,partner, rally him, amuse him, in his own coin, in his own manners and in the way he would her. This is what we understand as female mannishness so noticeable in the beau monde of to -day, and, we may add, so uulevely. It is forgotten that what a man de- sires in a woman is contrast, not a caricature of himself. CsosnoI.,M's COuNEE DRUG STORE Wingham Agency, MATTHEN AMBLER Meat is Low, So a«.all Cereals.
