Q
EXET IIs
TIMES
HOUSEHOLD.
LESSONS FOR MOTHERS.
My heart aches for some of the girls
on my acquaintance whose mothers are
bringing them up in idleness. "Know-
ledge is always power," and the girl
who has a thorough understanding of
all housewifely accomplishments will
feel thankful in the years to come, even
though she may rebel against it: in
early life.
A woman of middle age who was
married at the age of seventeen re-
marked once that she never had a mo-
ment's comfort for the first year of
her married life lest her husband
should bring some friend home to dine.
with them. This same woman had
never prepared a. single article of food
or washed a dish when she ,entered
the matrimonial. state, and yet she is
bringing up her daughter in the same
way.
We all know that it is much easier
to learn things when we are children
than when we have reached years of
maturity. This is especially true of
housekeeping. While we admit that
there are women who have persever-
ance and determination enough to mas-
ter anything and to become model
housekeepers after their marriage,
there are a, greater number who make
hard work of it and never succeed.
System in housekeeping means every-
thing, and the child who is taught by
a wise mother to do the little tasks
over and over every day will in time
become thorough and methodical. Chile
dren of ten years can be taught to
make rolls, muffins, puddings and cake,
and even bread. The younger they
begin the more they enjoy it, Cook-
ing to the majority of little folks
is a novel enema or pastime, I have
known many a girl who was not per-
mitted to "muss in the kitchen," be-
cause she made too much trouble, stay
home on some pretext or other when
the family were going away and spend
the entire day baking and experiment-
ing. On the other hand, there is such
a thing us expecting too much of
young girls, especially where there is
a large family and no help is employed.
We should all aim to find the happy
medium, A bright, wholesome young
g..ri of between sixteen and seventeen.
although in (school, is a wonderful
help to her hardworking mother, who
has a large family besides boarders and
no help is employed. The daughter
rises very ear,y every morning and
helps to prepare breakfast, does up
the work and assists in many other
ways. After school she does much to-
ward the preparation of the warm
supper. On Saturdays she bakes,
kes, and
is generally busy.She is also an ac-
comlishedseamtresand can make
her own clothes.
By some she would be called a com-
mon -place girl. She is certainly a
bright., happy, busy girl who will de-
velop intopa noble, wholesome woman.
Whether she remains amaid or be-
comes the wife of some goo man, her
disposition and character are ouch
that she will snake herself welcome
wherever she goes. Would there were
more like her, and more mothers who
believed in bringing up daughters to
be self-reliant.
Is there any reason why a boy
should expect to be independent and
a girl warted on? And yet we see
parents in the middle and lower walks
of life who do not hesitate to .say
that their darling daughters shall be
shielded from life's cold blasts so long
as they live. These selfsame parents
must work early and late in order
that their daughters shall be hand-
somely dressed and be given every ac
complishment. I tremble sometimes
when I ;think of the future for them.
Does not too great selfishness on the
part of parents make tyrants of their
children. is the mother who gives
up her Iife for her children, who slaves
early and late in order that they may
take life easy, respected and honor-
ed as much as the one who is wise
enough to teach them self-reliance and
to expect their help from babyhood up?
We mothers have many things to
learn. Alas, that some of us learn
these lessons too late. 0, may we be
spared what some parents are going
through.
A highly, educated, matter-of-fact
man and his wife have but one child
who is a spoiled creature of fashion.
She was a selfish, thoughtless, exacting
girl who has become a frivolous wo-
man. Her mother prided herself that
her daughter's hands should never be
soiled with dish water, nor should she
even make her own bed. To be sure,
her hands are white as the lilies, her
face and form are divinely fair, but
that beauty which shines from within
is left out. Her father is a. disappoint-
ed man, but the mother is still blind
to the girl's faults.
As you value the future happiness of
teach and daughters, them
to be happy useful women. Let them
have a. thorough knowledge of house-
keeping in all its details. No matter
in what station of life they are situat-
ed. No matter whether you ever ex-
pect them to keep house or not. The
time will come when they will be
grateful to you for such knowledge.
Experimenting on a husband is a
very different thing from learning
thetrue science of housekeeping with
a kind,, judicious mother.

MAKING SOAP.
We will suppose that the fat has all
been carefully tried out, and' strained,
and this a servant can do, as the grease
accumulates, never allowing it to be-
come tainted. If you will save your
old tomato cans you will find them a
great convenience leo strain your
greasethemmhold
intoas two of will h n ,
five pounds, just enough to use with
one box of potash.
For the two tomato cans of grease,
or five pounds in cakes, you will need
one box of any first-class potash. Put
into your pan or kettle eight quarts of
luke-warm water, your cans or cakes
of grease; take the top off the potash
can and put in can and contents, plac-
ing your kettle where it will heat grad-
ually. When the grease is melted and
the potash dissolved, take out the cans
and let the water come to a boil, stir -
Ting occasionally, After it has boiled
away a little, put in two more quarts
of water. It will need to boil slowly,
for twoor three hours before it will
be soap. Whenit begins to look soapy
throw in two tablespoonfuls of salt,
and boil till smooth airain.as the salt
THE EXETER TIMES
may cause the soap and water to sep-
arate at first, if your kettle gets too
hot by any chance and is likely to run
over, throw in a. little cold water, and
set in a cooler place. When you think
it is done, take out a little in a saucer,
and try it, like jelly, by cooling it. If
it separates, put it back, and dip out
some more and try putts g a little cold
water in it, stirring it. If that thick-
ens it, you will know that more water
is needed, and you can put in a quart
of cold water; stir it well and try some
again; if it hardens when cool it is all
right. A little experience will soon
enable you to tell just what it needs,
If you do not have water enough for
the proportion of potash, it will sepa-
rate even after it has boiled suffi-
ciently, If it does ,not separate nor
harden on being cooled there is too
much water, and you must boil it down
more. When it is just right pour it out
in a vessel to cool. A square wooden
box, divided into sections, the size for
bars, is very convenient. It should be
deep enough to make thick bars, as the
soap will dry away greatly. When you
put the soap away see that you have it
in a light, airy place, or it will turn
dark. It will preserve its shape better
if you do not pile it up while it is soft,
Five pounds of grease willmake four-
teen large bars of soap, and will not
cost you a cent a bar, and you will
have the satisfaction of knowing that
it is pure and of excellent cleansing
properties.
BETWEEN MEAL DISHES.
If the children require abetween
meal lunch, or think they do, health
demands that it shall be very simple.
Bits of pies, cookies, meat or cake. may
be convenient and it may seem econo-
my to have these pieces thus disposed
of, instead of appearing, at a regular
meal, but they should, not be given to
the little ones.
Plain bread and butter, or bread and
milk, nothing richer, or more complex
of digestion, should be given between
meals.
It will save many interruptions and
much impatience on the part of the
mothers if the bread and butter is pre-
pared at the regular meal and set aside
for this light lunch.

TRIUMPH OF BEER.
Sunday Closing Rejected By the British
Parliament.
By a vote of 206 to 149 the British
House of Commons on Wednesday re-
jected the bill of Mr. Charles ilii. Wil-
son,' Liberal member fox WesL Hull,
providing for the entire closing of pub-
lic -houses throughout Sunday. They
are at present allowed to be open for
a short period during the middle of
Sunday and on Sunday evenings.
The licensing laws et present permit
public -houses outside of the Metro-
politan area to open on Sundays from
twelve noon, till two p. m., and from
six p.m. to. eleven p.m. In the Metro-
politan area the hours are from twelve,
noon, till two p.m.., and from ;six p.m.
tilt after midnight. The koal justices
may slightly vary those hours outside
of Londen. The partial Sunday clos-

THE FAR.A
WINTER WORK FOR GARDENERS.
In this age of competition no one
should loiter by the way much, if he
would succeed. Gardening, when right-
ly conducted, is generally an occupa-
tion that pays; but owing to. the " fact
that the gardener has a "let up" dur-
ing the winter, he is liable to get sloth-
ful, if not careful, and limy possibly

however, like the hare in the fable and
find that the tortoise has won the race.
Properly speaking, it is none too.

season's crops, and the gardener who
begins this in time is pretty sure to
have his produots in the market before
his more dilatory neighbor gets there.
We depend to a large extent on our
seedsmen nowadays for our seeds, and
it often requires much time and study
to select from their long list the prop-
er seeds for our exact use. Consequent-
ed where no foul odors would be likely
to reach it.
That cleanliness is next to Godliness
is especially true when applied to dairy-

Outside of growing plants for our
own gardens in the early hotbeds, there
is often money in growing many of
them for sale to late gardeners. 'There
are those who buy their plants, when
started in the hotbeds, and they pay
good prices for them, too. In order to
meet this demand, gardeners can often
do well to make a specialty of onions,
lettuce, or other t egetabies, which they
grow in perfection, acid dispose of
them by the dozen when a few inches
high. One can frequently more than
pay for all the expense of 'the hotbeds
by growing an extra amount of each
vegetable under glass, in that, after
selecting all he needs for hist own use;•'
he can sell the remainder to his neigh-
bors, at the stores, or .anywhere else
that an opportunity presents itself.
CLEANLINESS IN DAIRY WORK.
Life it has been said, is made up of
little things, and it can be said that
dairying is made up the same way—
in fact any business is made up of
little things and details, and if these
are not properly attended to,failure re-
sults. 1
One of the most important details of
dairying is cleanliness. This should be
observed from the milking of the cows
to the packing of the product—butter
especially.
The daily cleaning of dairy utensils
is one of the important factors an pro-
moting cleanliness. All the milk in or
on a dairy utensil should first be rins-
ed off with water far below the scald-
ing
calding point before any water up to that
point is used. If scalding water is used
at the start the milk is cooked and then
it is almost impossible to remove it
form the article—especially the creases
or seams, if any there be.j
If scalding water is used on a milk
strainer of fine meshes before the milk
has been rinsed with water of a lower
temperature the strainer will be about
as good as ruined and the same will
result if the 'milk is allowed to dry
in. Therefore, if the user -is not ready

er and left there till it can be properly
cleaned.
The cans of portable creameries should
be 'kept scrupulously clean. This can
be easily accomplished if attended to
every time they are emptied and, the
rules above mentioned observed.
The water and ice tank of a portable
creamery slhould be carefully looked
after. In the first place care should
be taken to thoroughly rinse off all

—The death took place on Thursday
night, at the residence of Mr. Joseph

James of Port Dalhousie. Some weeks
ago, deceased, in company with this
brother Robert, came to this city,

YOUNG ORCHARDS.
Young orchards should have atten-
tion ; when there is any spare time go
over the trees, cutting away weak, use-
less wood: When the trees are young
is the
time to give them good attention,
and a well kept orchard will respond
to the extra labor laid out, says Amer-
ican Gardening, If young trees be left
to themselves they will not be long be-
fore they grow out of shape. Strong
shoots, which give the trees a strag-
gling appearance, should be shortened
back; one should always aim to have
compact, well balanced trees, and also,
if fine fruit be the object.,, keep the
growth thinned out, as when there
is much wood in a tree sunshine cannot
get at the fruit, and under these cir-
cumstances poor fruit results. Young
orchards should be thoroughly cultivat-
ed, for a few years I don't know of
anything better for young trees. If
one half of an orchard be cultivated the
other left in grass, that which wits
cultivated would grow just as fast
again and much cleaner and healthi-
er. A tree that makes a clean,
healthy growth is the one from which
'ave can expect. fine fruit.

CATTLE QUARANTINE.
Its Abrogation a Benefit to the ratted
States.
A despatch from Buffalo says:—The
The
cattle -dealers of Buffalo and vicinity
are jubilant over the abrogation of the
quarantine of Canadian cattle, which
went into effect February 1st. The
Act passed by Congress a year ago re-
quiring all importations of cattle to tie
held in quarantine 90 days proved de-
trimental to the live stock interests of
Buffalo. Canadian consignments be-
came very few. A member of' the firm
of Waltz, Hughes, Swope, and Bensted;
said Last Monday we received 40
cars of horned cattle from. Canada, the
largest shipment that has been receiv-
ed here under the new law. The ma-
im- part of this shipment was far
stocking purposes, 'and .:ti carloads
have been shipped as far West as Wil-
ni ngton, Ohio, something never before
heard of. All this goes to show that
the live stock market of the United
States is at present very low. Ameri-
can breeders hale told me that if they
could secure cattle they could fatten
them with but little expense, as they
now have on hand hundreds o'
bushels of corn going to waste for tie
want of cattle to feed.
" At the East Buffalo yards busine-
is brisk, as buyers are coming het
from all parts of the country, and U.
new regulations will not only prove
benefit to the shippers and consignee .
but to the consumers as well."

choice poultry, and has a fine flock of
high -bred fowls.
"I bought six hens and a rooster of
your husband this morning and paid
him $8 for them," exclaimed the -Mon-
day morning caller, "and I've come af-
ter them. I want 'em quick, too,"
and he unrolled a big bag he had car-
ried under hie arm.
Mrs. Arundle doubted his statement
and refused to let him have the fowls.
The man grew angry. If she would not
heve him the chickens he would help
imself, as he would not have time to
call again this week. He went to the
hen house in the refer yard to force his
way •
in.
"Hold on a minute; don't break the
lock. I'll go in and get the key," call-
ed Mrs. Arundle.
In a minute Mrs. Arundle appeared
in the door and said:
'Here's the key ; come and get it."
The man turned and approached care-
lessly, not looking up until he reached
the step leading to the back door.
Then he raised his eyes and saw that
instead of a key Mrs. Arundle bad in
her hand a bright bulldog revolver
ready cocked. He stopped and his jaw
fell. Then Mrs. Arundle said:
"Now you get right out of here in
a hurry.. No chicken thief is going to
rob me in broad daylight if I have my
eyes open."
The thief grabbed up his bag, made
for the fence, jumped over, and ran
down 1Woodbridge avenue.
BE REAL.
Don't be a hypocrite before your boy.
When he believes you to be infallible,
don't encourage the belief.Take ake him
into your life as you desire to be taken
into his. Don't tell him that when you
were a boy you never gave your par-
ents a moment's uneasiness, were never
cross to your little sister, never dis-
obeyed your teacher, were never cruel
to dumb animals, and always kept the
golden rule. Be honest with him
above all things. Don't be too dig-
nified with him, The more he loves you
the more he lives in your arms, the
more be plays with you the less he
fears you, the more profoundly will he
respect you. Pity the man who, in
order to secure and retain proper re-
spect from his children, has to wear
at all times an uncomfortable 'veneer
of artificial dignity.
KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.
A. New York doctor attributes the
violent thirst which afflicts the maj-
ority of bicycle riders to the habit of
breathing through the mouth while
riding. The vigorous exercise causes
all beginners and many old riders to
breathe through the mouth, with the
result that the lips and throat become
dry and parched. The remedy, of
course, is to keep the mouth shut.
