Her husband pays her all the little attentions
which women hold so dear and which many
husbands and wives do not know how to keep
for a year even, There are many little things
which are good as eteedy investments, if we
may call them that, though they have noth-
ing to do with dollars and cents; but they do
have to do with that which is of more value.
It is these little things which the mother
does, and that her daughters learn from her
by example, which make their hones; just
as it is the neglect of these things, which
mars many a home either to a separ-
ation of its founders or to one of life-long
misery. One would think sometime% that
there was but one day left for work and it
was absolutely necessary that it should be
done with as much Lawry as pesaible, yet

prised at the little that has been accom-

appears at such a disadvantage. She is
croes because of slack habits but is the last
to acknowledge it and to reform. They are
not themseivee who are forced to meet visit-
ors when they are looking their worst.
What might have been a very pleasant call
from a lady is always remembered by her
friend with a blush because of the discomfort
of a disorderly toilet.
Such carelessneas reflects on the whole
household. The hutband who was once so
careful to appear in spotless attire has now
anythieg but spotless clothes. The wife no
longer mentions, much less notices, when he
goes to his buisnees that the collar of his
coat needs cleaning, or his boots need brush-
ing. The boys are brought up to see these
hebitsof their father, and help to make work
for an orderly woman, or they are so lacking
n observation that they choose " scare-
crows " for wives and thus the elomente be-
come hereditary from both sides of the
family.
A woman 'who has no regard for her ap-
pearance for the first half cf the day grows
careless concerning the condition of her
home and all that pertains to it. It soon
becomes easy to sit down to lead in a room
in dire disorder. A chance caller is offered
an apology or none at all, according as the
housekeeper has decided whether she has
a right to keep her home just as she chooses
or to be guided by neighborhood opiesion or
custom. Such drestNg is demoralizing to
the persen, the family and home. Do any
of your neighbors appear as scarecrows in
the forenoon ? or anybody in your town?

The story comes from Paris of a certain
Baron, a man of society, unmarried, gay.
He discovered one day that he was growing
decidedly bald. Theidiscovery worried himO
but much thought on the subject resulted
happily. He went to a wigmaker and or-
dered eight wigs, each made of hair just
the color of his own, and just the quality,
and each dressed just as he arranged his
own locks. The wigs differed + only in the
length of their hair. In one it was quite
short ; in the second it was a little longer;
in the third longer still ; and so on, until
No. 8, which was of quite long hair. The
Baron put on his short haired wig first, and
wore it a week ; then he:put on No. 2, and
wore that a week and so until he was wear-
ing No, 8, when some one was pretty sure
to say: Good gracious, Baron, why don't
you get your hair cat ?" Then the Baron
would put on No. I, happy at the thought
that he had successfully solved the great
wig problem.

The Eagle's Mistake.
The common eagle is a bird of wonderfully
keen sight, says Harper's Young People,
At a height of eighty yards it can see a
grass mouse or stoat, and having once lociet-
ed iti prey it will swoop down with the
speed of an arrow and rise with the victim
in its clews.
Mr. Samuel Wilmot, the superintendent
of the Canadian fish hatcheries at New-
castle, Ontario, told me the following story
of an eagle :—A pair of eagles built their
nest near our house well up in a large pine
tree year in and year out for many. seasons.
One autumn the cold weather set in earlier
than usual and the smooth parts of the stream
that ran by our house were frozen, but the
eagles still remained in the big pine, save
when they flew abroad for food, One
morning as I sat at the window looking in
thg direction of the pines I noticed one of
the birds leave the tree and poiss directly
above a rough part of the river which was
not frozen. Then he went down like a bolt
and disappeared under the water. I watched
with great interest to see what he would
fetch—watched one, two, three, four sec.
onds, but he did nob appear. This was
something so unusual that 1 became intense-
ly interested. I stood at the window for
half a minute watching where the bird had
disappeared, and then, sure that something
had happened to him, I snatched my bat

When she heard her sisters promise,'
In all meekness to obey
Their respective lords and masters
And accept their rightful sway,
Then she tossed her head so proudly,
Then she said, "You wait and see ;
No one in male creation
Will e'er make a slave of me!"
When she heard her friends consulting,
Asking for a new spring hat,
Urging unbelieving husbands
That they needed this or that,
Then she said, "Oh, h • w ecorn it 1"
Then her haughty spirit rose,
And she cried, " Yeti see if ever
I go begging for my clothes 1"
And you ought to see her really,
Now that ehe at last is wed,
Sifting coals and lighting fire,
While Inc husband lies in bed.
E'ett to wear her last year's bonnet
She to day does not refuse ;
To brush his coat she's ever ready—
And they say she shines his shoes.
