FOR THE LADIES.
Without Clothes -Fins,
Rousekeepor's Weekly t Most persons
take very good care of their table linen after
it is washed, ironed and neatly folded; but
the care should bo taken before it reaches
this state. Table -linen is never worn in the
using, but in the washing and ironing the
whole automat of damage is done, especially
if the servant is strong, and rubs all with
equal vigor, from the dainty handkerchiefs
to the heavy sheets,
Table -linen should be soaked over eight,
with a little ammonia added to tate water,
which softens the dirt as well as the water,
and in the morning, with a little rubbing,
thorough rinsing, and careful bluing (never
put any starch in tablo-iinen), they are ready
to hang out, and here is when thegreatest
harm is done:
When I have a new servant, and Monday
comes, I think of the contest on the clothes-
pin question, and my heart fails me. Ser-
vants may acknowledge they have some
faults and failings, but they all know how
to boil potatoes, make bread, and wash and
iron. These virtues they are positive they
possess, and great is their indignation if
you question the results.
A table -cloth should bo hung half or two-
thirds its length over the line, and no clothes-
pins should be used unless the wind makes
it absolutely necessary.. Servants take
napkins or handkerchiefs by one corner, and
fasten a bunch of them on the lino whit
one olothes.pin, so as to eave time and
and trouble for themselves. Soon you dis-
cover holes or tears hi the corners of the
articles, and wonder what causes tletn. I
only wonder that there are any napkins or
handkerchiefs in existence.
Neither napkins nor handkerchiefs should
ever come in contact wltlt clothes -line or
clothes -pin. You who are fortunate enough
to have °'real grass," whioh we city folk
are deprived of, spread your table -linen
Upon it. and the sunshine will clo the rest of
the work.
Rings antite Thumbs,
Wore it left to the ladies to decide the
relative importance of the five fingers, the
pride of place would certainly be accorded
to tbo fourth finger, as the bearer of the
outward sign of wifehood.. Granting that
honorable privilege to be sufficient to en-
title the fourth finger to tank above its fel-
lows, it is a question if it rightly enjoys the
privilege.
it has been contended that the master -
finger was originally the recipient of the
badge of matrimony, chiefly, if not entirely,
on the evidence of Tom D'Urfey and tiamuei
Butler—the first -named writing of a court-
ship so fast and furious that,
Ere three days about were coins,
The ring was put upon tnethumb:
and Butler decrying the abolishing of
That tool of matrimony, a Him,
With which the unsanetified bridegroom
Is married only to e. thumb.
But then he goes on :
The bride to nothing, but her will,
Which null[; the after -marriage still;
which may be read to mean that the thumb -
ringing ceremony was merely the preliminary
one of formal betrothal.
In the other ease, it does not follow that
if the ring was pub upon the thumb, it
staid there ; since the old marriage ritual
prescribed that the ring should be put upon
the thumb at the words, " With .all my
wordly goods I thee endow :" placed in turn
upon the second, third and fourth finger, on
which it finally remained.
Southey telis us that in the time of the
first two Georges ladies transferred the wed-
ding -ring to the thumb after the ceremony,
and it is represented so worn in portraits of
the period. He might have gond farther
back. The heroine of Southerne's " A
Maid's Last Prayer" declares of a lover :
"Marry him I must, and wear my wedding
ring on my thumb, too, tam resolved,"from
witch it may be reasonably inferred that to
do so was the whim of the few rather than
of the many.
Portraits of Elizabethan dames wearing
their wedding rings upon their thumbs are
said to be extant. Possibly the rings were
not wedding rings, ringing the thumb being
an old feminine fashion. It was upon that
member of the hand Chaucer's Canace car-
ried her wonder-working hoop, and a mum-
my case in the British museum bears a re-
presentation of an Egyptian lady, the
thumbs of whose crossed hands are each
encircled by a ring.
In the days of Queen Anne, according to
the Spectator, the feminine thumb ring was
the badge of widowhood, and women tired
of single blessedness were wont to don it,
and, as " jolly widows," achieve conquests
denied to them as spinsters.
Men's thumb -rings are no rarities to col-
lectors. Some of the Roman specimens
must have been cumbrous wear, one in the
Montfancon collection, hearing the bust of
Trajan's consort, Platina, measuring over 3
inches across.
Modiceval churchman of high degree did
not allow "the largest, first and shortest of
the fingers" to go unadorned. A massive
gold ring was found on the thumb of the
supposed skeleton of Hilary, Bishop of
Chichester, who died in 1 169 ; and the re-
cumbent effigy of Bishop Oldham, in Exeter
Cathedral, is remarkable for the pressed -
together thumbs being inclosed by a single
ring, says Jhamber's Journad.
When the shrine of St. Thomas a Becket
was robbed of its treasures, the famous
Archbishop's thumb ring given to him by
the King of Trance, graced with a ruby the
size of a hen's egg, found its way to the
thumb of binffKing Hall, and as the humor
of the King is always voted -eust th0 same
thing, we may be sure the royal hand was
not the only one so decked at court. Mayors
and Alderman imitated their betters.
ci When I was 'about' thy years, Hal, "
says the Fat Knight, "I was not an eagle's
talon in the waist; I could have crept into
an Alderman's h
;"
thumbringand that the
wearing of thumb rings as pretty general
in the seventeenth century is proven by
Brome's remark that a good man in the city
carried nothing rich about him but the
gout and a thumb ring.
The .Ugly Girl.
.
Most ugly girls have something pretty
abbot them, and the few who kuow that
they cannot claim even this limited endow-
ment become pathetic to men of a generous
mind, exciting pity, and we all know what
pity is akin. to under farorable conditions.
I recall a maiden of this stamp who secured
it handsome and devoted husband by her
very hopelessness of winning his preference
by the tender humility of her worship of
himself. Living in the same house, the
constant appeal to his chivalry became more
powerful ab last than all the varied charms.
of other woman he might have won. •
Ugly girls, however, generally carry their
consolation with them in a, blessed uncon-
sciousness of their want of;good looks ; have
we not all seen them stand before a mirror
noting the effect of a color oo a new fashion,
with an undisguised expression of admira-
tion on their faces? -very much like the
ugly young man who ties lii1 cravat and
an i
es at.'

ass with
the
comforting mental comment, Not hand-
some, but devilish fascinating l"
The statemeiitthat ,".ugly girls. are gen-
erally left to run to waste, as unappropri-
ated blessings," is not supported by evi-
dence; who has not met wives as ugly as
any old maid in his list of acquaintances?
It is safe to make" the broach generalization
that an ugly girl, all other things being
equal, is likely to have fewer offers than a
protty girl, but,quito as likely to receive
the one offer which will make her a happy
wife. It maybe doubted whether a plurali-
ty of lovers is an unmixed advantage to a
girl.; one good lover, the elect man, attract-
ed to her by affinity in its highest sense, is
forever enough.
Bab all •other things (save the gift of
beauty) seldom are equal between the ugly
and the pretty girl; by the natural law of
compensation, the ugly girl has either some
inherent or some acquired ability that is
lacking in the other, which asserts its charm
as acgaintanee progresses. Beauty only has
the start in the race.
The ugly girl often has superior tact and
finesse. Being obliged to study human na-
ture closely in order to get the most out of
it, she learns so welt how end when to
speak delicate flattery that she ends by
nonvincing the man who scarcely noticed
her on the evening wizen they were intro,
duced, that the lips that can utter such be-
witching things aro really beautiful; for
somebody has said --I canner give the
authority for the quotation—.that men are
vain.
Propinquity oftenest decides attachments
of every kind ; if a city man had to spend a
winter in a little village with a homely bub
pleasant girl, he would be inoro likely to
Mid himself in lova with her by spring than
with the pretty and pleasant girl he left in
Toronto when he went to the village.
An ugly girl has a firm grip, generally
speaking ; she is not sated with adtuiratidn,
or confident when she gots it that it will be
perennial, so she does not let chances give
her the slip, after the fashion of many belles.
When once married she has piezfty of grit,
ton, to protect her lawful property and to
distance the pretty unscrupulous flirts who
would try their wiles on him.
It is questionable, after all, if a wonan's
beauty or homeliness mattes much difference
to a man after he has been married to her a
year; does he ever know how she looks?
He sees her inner nature, and the happiness
of the couple is decided by the effect of their
inner natures upon each other- Many a man
with a pretty wife has been infatuated with
the society of a very plain -looking woman
who possessed either intelligence or some
power of adaptation he missed in his part-
ner.
Every Girl Should Sew.
In these days the art of fine needlework is
in danger of "decay. We have plenty of
decorative embroiders, plenty of workers in
drawn work, but comparatively few who
understand fine hentnning or the more corn -
plicated ports of plain sowing. Yet this
should be a part of the education of every
girl in the land, just as we believe that some
ordinary manual training should bo a part
of a boy's education. It does not matter
whether the individual is born with "a
golden spoon in his mouth" or is compelled
to sup porridge from a clumsy wooden one,
the demand for same manual training is
equally nocossrry. Fine sewing is a de.
lightfnl occupation to a wou'an of womanly
tastes, and one in which she can show as
much taste as embroidery. No one can tell
whether work is properly done unless ono
understands how to do it. For this reason,
if for no other, every girl should be trained
to understand how to form "seam, gusset
and band," though her general sewing may
be done by a seamstress. "Dangling hands"
are a shame to any person, rich or poor.
A Pleasant Word,
A young lady bad gone out walking. Site
forgot to take her purse with her, and had
no money in her pocket. Presently she met
a little girl with a basket on her arm.
"Please, miss, will you buy something from
my basket ?" said the little girl, showing a
variety of bookmarks, watch -cases, needle -
book, etc. I'm sorry I can't tiny anything
to -day," said the young lady, " 1 have not
any money with int. Your things look very
pretty." She stopped a moment, andspoke
a few kind words to the little girl ; and
then as she passed she said again, "I'm
very sorry I can't buy anything from you
to -day." " 0, miss 1" said the little girl,
"you've done me just as much good as if:
you had. Most persons that I meet say,
"Get away with you 1" bayou have spoken
kindly and gently to me, and I feel a heap
better." That was " considering the poor."
How little it costs to do that 1 Let us learn',
to speak kindly and gently to the poor and
suffering. If we have nothing else to give;
let 08 at least give them our sympathy.
O'.nlucky Days of the Year.
In Grafton's ,manual of his Chronicles,
1565, the unlucky days according to the
astronomers, are named as follows : January
1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 15, 17 and 20 are unlucky ;
Febvuary 26, 27 and 28 unlucky, 8, l0 and
17 very unlucky; March 16, 17 and 20, very
unlucky ; April 7, 8, 10 and 20, unlucky ;
May 3 and 6 unlucky 7, 15 and 20 very un-
lucky ; June 10 and 22 unlucky, 6 and 8
very unlueky ; August 29 and 30 unlucky,
19 and 20 very unlucky ; September 3, 4, 21,
and 23 unlucky, and 7 very unlucky ; Oc-
tober 4,-16 and 21 unlucky 6 very unlucky ;
November 5, 6, 29 and 30 unlucky, 15 and
20 very unlucky ; December 15 and 22 un-
luekyg6, 7 and 9 very unlucky.
Some people gi4 much thought to the
poor. That is as far as they get.
An emphatic letter just written by Cardi-
nal Glibbons in condemnation of the Louisi-
ana Lottery is directed especially against
the institution as a corrupter of morals and
a promoter of the misery of the poor. It
has both a pious and apatniotic motive, and
it reveals in its crisp, energetic sentences
the earnestness of a true heart. He raises
his voice against the evil because, "like a
giant tree," it casts a. beueful shadow, de•
structive of publto morality, virtue and
honesty, over the whole land, of which his
own diocese is a part. The wrong of the
lottery has never been more pointedly sum-
med up than in his description of its practi-
cal working. He brands it "the dire enemy
of manhood, of homes, and of prosperity,"
and he raises his voice " in protest ane lit
prayer that faithful Catholics will help for-
ward the good work of putting an end to its
ravages." W e do not know what stand the
Roman Catholic clergy of Louisiana are tak-
ins with respect to the moral conflict in that
State, but the powerful appeal for righteous-
ness of the eminent prelate ought to be
widely influential among Christian people
of every name.
Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria.
'Injurious Inseota,
Prof. Fletcher,'entonloingist.of tlre; Ot-
tawa Experimental Farnm, at the annual
meeting of the Ontario Dairymen's Associa-
tion, held. at Brampton recently, stated lio
would speak to them upon "Iujarious Inseots. At Ottawa the work was divided
amongst the agriculturist, the horticulturist
the chemist (his own department) and, a
poultry manager. Perhaps some of them
would not at first sight be able to see the
importance of his particular department;
and yet when it was remembered thata very
largo proportion of the farmers' profits was
taken away by the insects which devoured
the grasses and other props, it would be seen
how highly essential it was that somebody
should make a special study of these insects
so as to devise practical remedies as soon as
possible. One tenth at least of the agri-
cultural produce of the Dominion was lost
by the ravages of insects, and therefore
every farmer lost one-tenth of his own in-
dividual prop. There was no reason why
this should be the case. A knowledge of
the life history of the insects paved the
way to the discovery of practical remedies
for ahnost, all the most injurious kinds which
annually reduced our revenues. As au illus-
tration of the value of these studies to
farmers, brief mention was made of some of
the best known insects which attacked fod-
der crops. This was prefaced by a short
statement explaining how remedies were
devised with regard to the structure of the
mouth parts of the insects, all of which it
was explained might bo classified as either
biting or sucking insects. For the first class
which masticated the. the substance of the
food, it was evident that the application of
some poisonous substance, such as parts
green to the food plant, was all that was re-
quired. For the second 0lass, which lived by
suction other remedies must be used. Such
we have in insect powder, which, although
perfectly harmless to the higher animals,
was very fatal to insect life. Another
was very useful remedy for all insects, where
it could be applied dirootly, was an emulsion
of. milk and coal oil, or soap suds and coal
oil Remedies, it wasp:Anted. out were either
preventive or active. Speaking of the pre-
ventive Remedies the advantages were
shown of agricultural methods, as, first, high
culture by which a vigorous, healthy growth
was induced;second, clean foaming, by which
wends and all other useless vegetation were
removed ; third, early or late sowing, so as
to produce the crop when its enemies could
do it the least harm ; fourth, rotation of
crops. Active remedies were either the
application of poisonous substances by which
injurious insects were destroyed, or the dif-
ferent methods which might be classed as
hand picking. Short accounts together with
the best remedies were given for the follow-
ing well known insects; The turnip fly,
although it destroyed annuallythe crops on
sit enormous number of farina in all parts of
Canada, was a very easy insect 16 keep in
check. It was a usual praotice with many
good farmers to sow land plaster along the
drills when the young turnips appeared,
which induced a rapid growth and carried
the young plants past the stage when they
were liable to injury, As was well known,
however, this was frequently insufficient,
and under favorable conditions the insects
increased in such numbers as to totally de-
stroy the crop, and make resowing necessary
It was stated that quite satisfactory results
had been obtained ley mixing with the plaster
2per cent. of Paris great by which the flies
„ eroall destroyed. Gut worms which weretoo
well known to every farmer in the Dominion
had been made a special study for many years
tleo,i remedies, by which a large proportion
of the crop could be saved, were wrapping a
a piece of paper round the stems of such
plants as cabbages and tomatoes at the tinge
of setting out ; also poisoning by means of
small bundles of weeds or other vegetation
loosely tied together, and distributed over
the garden or field at from 15 to 20 feet
apart. Experience had shown the speaker
hat both of these methods were economical
and practical. In speaking of the cabbage
worm insect powder has highly recommend-
ed. This could be mixed with five times
its quantity of flour and dusted over the
plants as soon as the caterpillars were observ-
ed. Although this substance was perfectly
harmless to human beings, every caterpillar
touched would certainly be killed.
In concluding, the speaker wished to re-
mind those present that his work, like that
in other branches at Ottawa, was being car-
ried on specially for the benefit of the far-
mers of Canada ; that remedies were known
for nearly all of the most frequently occur-
ring insect pesta, and that if they would
apply to him it would always give him ple-
asure to assist them in protecting their
crop
].0s. response to questions it was stated
that the proper time to spray apple trees to
destroy the codling worm, was immediately
after the blossoms lead dropped, in the pro-
portion of one pound of Paris green to the
hundred gallons of water, which was per-
fectly safe, and thetno possible injury could
follow either to the trees or people eating
the fruit. Speaking also with reference to
the clover seed Midge it was stated that the
remedy was perfectly simple and easily ap-
plied, and if farmers would only recognize
this there was no reason why clover seed
should not be grown to the large extent it
was formerly. The discovery of the remedy
was due entirely to a knowledge of the life
history of the insect, which briefly was as
follows : The eggs were laid by the mother
insect in the forming flower heads of the
cloverplant As gots hatched they btu lyoung
o wedintn as the thform-
ing pod and destroyed theseeds, leaving the
clover heads about the end of June, and
burrowed iiito the ground to pass through
the otbar stages of their development. The
perfect flies emerged again front the ground
lust as the second crop of clover Was coming
into flower and flew ,to tine heads, where
they again deposited their eggs which de-
stroyed the hopes of the farmer who wished
to save ,his seed from his crop. It was
pointed out that if the first crop was either
fed o8 or cut before the middle of June all
that contained insects which were only half
developed mdstbe destroyed, and thus on
that field there would be none developed to
lay eggs and destroy the second or seed
crop.

How to Rave a Bright 'Amp.
In these days when lamps are used so
much the care of them is quite an important
,matter. If the lamps be good and have
proper attention one cannot wish for a more
satisfactory light, but if badly cared for
they will be a source of much discomfort.
The great secret of having lamps in good
working order is to keep them clean and to
use good oil. Have a regular plhCce and time
for cleaning the lamps. Put a folded news-
paper on the table, so that any stray bibs of
burned wick or drops of oil may fall -upon
it Wash and wipe 'the chimneys and
shades. Now take off all loose parts of the
barrier, washing them in hot soap suds and
wiping with a ()lean, soft cloth. Trim the
wicks and tura thein quite low. With a
soft, web cloth, well soaked, wipe the burn-
er thoroughly, working the cloth as much as
possible inside the burner, to get off every
particle of the charred wick. Now fill the
lamps within about one inch of the top and
wipe with a dazpp towel and then a dry one.
Adjust all the parts and return them to their
proper places. Whenever a new wick is re-
quired in a lamp wash and scald the burner'
before putting in the wick. With a student
lamp the receptacle for waste oil, which is
screwed t
w d on the bottomh burner, the ur er, should
be taken drat least once a week and washed.
Sometimes a wick will get very dark and
dirty before it is half consumed. It is not
economy to try to burn it; replace it with a
fresh one, The trouble and expense are
slight and the increase in clearness and
brilliancy will repay the extra care. When
a lamp is lighted it should not at once be
turned up to the full height; wait until the
chimney is heated. Beautiful shades are
often cracked or broken by having the hot
chimneys rest against them, Now, when
lighting a lamp, be careful that the chimney
is set perfectly straight and does not tough
the shade at any point. The shade should
be placed on the lamp as soon as it is light.
ed, that it may heat gradually.
