Hannah Green came running in from school, her Iface flushed with excitement, her hat swinging in her hand, and almost out of breath with haste to tell her mother some- thing she wished to say. "Well, Hannah,"said her mother, "what is it?" "Oh, mamma." said 13 quash, the girls are coming here pret'v soon and we are all going down nn der the oak tree by the brook to play keen. -bottle, and 1 want_ to take my dishes and some cake in a big basket. Can I?" "Did you elk the girls to come, Hannah?" "Why, yes, of course Iddid. It le each a nice cool place to play down by the brook under that tree. They are going to bring their dollies and something nice to eat," said Hare nab. "Very well, Hannah, as yon have asked the girls to come you will have to go and play with them - But you forgot your papa asked you to go riding with him this after- noon, and you accepted his invite, tion at the breakfast table this morn- ing I suppose," said her mamma." "Oh, mamma. I didn't think," said Hannah, I must send the girls right back whin they come." "Ii.deed you must not," said mau,ma. "1 cannot have my little daughter gni y u+ euuli a discourtesy to her ier;tt eneeta. Yell must stay and pine wish and cnterlaie them," "ltu, tuamma, I had ever so much rather go with papa." pleaded Ha tett ,, my little girl yon cannot go with l+epa. If yoo had cared so murb about it you would not have for; t t, 0 80 easily. You must go dotal under the tree with the little gale," paid her mamma. .,'Clot mamma," said Hannah, wile, alta tears coming into her eyes, "you Nee I didn't think." "That is just the trouble," said matuma,"you must learn to think." "Hoe, can I," said Hannah, "when the think don't come. 1e1amma could hardly repress a Emile, but she quietly said : "I ate trying to teach my little girl to think in the future, by in. 8ietiug upon her doing her uty to her guests to.day. It w t , G be very wrung to send them aw ' !PA for l:or pleasure, when she so freely offered to entertain them, It will (met tiemething to do it this time, Then on another occasion she will not be so thoughtless as to ask them unless she really wishes them to come." Hannah want over in the corner for a little cry, while mamma went to the pantry for some sandwiches, cake and fruit for the party under the tree. When she had packed a nioe little basked she epoke to Jinn• nab. "C0010, Hannah, you ,Must now go and change yew -dress ; put an your gingham one unfit your -heavy ebossy bullae youv oyes 011d brush out your hair. The lrtt'e girls will be here before you are ready for them if yon don't hurry." "But, mamma,—" "Hannah"— her mother's voieo was a little sterner now—"you must do as I bid you directly. Stop ory• fug at 01300 and got ready t0 go to the tree,,' Hannah felt a little sulky still, but it was useless to question her mother's word any further. So she went to her room to got ready ter her playmates. Just then her father drove up to the door. "Where's my little girl?" be ask- ed. Mamma stepped to the door to tell him Hannah had made other ar- rangements for the afternoon. "So Hannah has mittened slash? Well that's good, after begging nee to take her the very next time I diem over to The Meadows," said her papa "You might take Jamie Stout Meng with you,"suggested mamma. "I presume he would enjoy the zide, but perheps she will thick better of her decision when she seen me with the pony ' "Oh, yes, Haulfah has repented already, t,ut she meet stay end en tertaiu the guests she has invited," said mamma. "Oil, a clues of disoipliue is it? Well, I suppose I had best not in. torten." So he drove off and pick. std up Jamie Stout, the lame boy down the street, who had been wish ing eil the afternoon ho could go off somewhere. Presently the little girls came. There were five of them, and Han nali was down stairs ready to go with them. She did not seem so very pleased to see them as she had been eager to invite them, Mol- ly rancher thought, but Molly woe a wise little girl who could rale her speech, and so she said nothiog. And as the afternoon wore on, Han nah regained her spirits considerab- ly, so that the play under the tree was pronounced a real good time by all the little girls, when it came time to go home. Papa did not got home until late iu the evening. He brought Han• nah 'a dozen very fine peaches from The Meadows, which had the effect of pretty nearly starting the tears again, wheu she tbought of the flue driest ,he had lost. She will hardly forget to 'thiuh' nest time papa iu • vitee her to gu anywhere with him. —Christian at Work. Household Hints. The yolk of an egg is good to keep flatirons smooth and clean. If the cover is removed from soap dishes the soap will not get soft. When flatirons become rusty, blank them with stove polish, and rub well with a dry brush, Use charcoal to broil with. The flames close the pores quickly and make the meat very tender. Ceilings that have been smoked with a kerosene lamp should be washed off with eoda water. Silver can be kept bright for months by being placed in an air. tight ease with a good sized piece of camphor. Do not keep ironed clothes on bars in the kitchen any longer than is necessary for thoroughly drying. They gather unpleasant odors. Mahagony and cherry furniture often gets dull for want of a good cleaning with a moist cloth, Polish with tho band, rubbing well, and the result will be surprising. Windows eau be cleaned in win. ter and the frost entirely removed by using a gill of alcohol to a pint of hot water. Clean quickly and rub dry with a warm chamois shin. Paper walls aro cleansed by be- ing wiped down with a flannel of oth tied over a broom or brush, Then cut off a thick piece of atale bread and rub down with tine. Begin at the top and go straight down. Telegraph wires of galvanized iron is much better to hangclothes on in winter than rope, as the cloth, 1 es will not freeze to it. Iiave it ' hung by a lineman and it will never "give," no matter what the weather maybe. An old and reliable English cook. book gives the following recipe es an oil -cloth restorer ; Melt one• half of an ounce of beeswax in a saucer of turpentine. Bub the sur• face all over with it and rub in with n dry cloth. It lightens eaves so much when a little forethought is expended. In the cool months one can buy euough to last several days, and breakfast should always be planned the night previous, and everything laid convenient for the morning's work. Nothing is more thoroughly mis- taken than the idea that a woman fulfils her duty by doing au amount of work that is far beyond her strength.- She not only dons not fulfil her duty, bub she most singe. Tillydeplorable.sIn11and the failure is tart Use squares of dull) colored felt, pinked at the edges, under statuary or any heavy ornaments that are liable to inter a polished surface. Equal parts of white shellac and alcohol is a permanent fixative for crayon and charcoal aketohes. Spray it en evenly with an artist's atomizer. Colored geode, to,,, should not be put•into very hot water, aid soda should be dreaded for them, They should neither bo starched with hot sterol', nor ironed with a hot iron. After washing, they should be tins. od iu oolcl water, in which a good handful of bay salt or a little alum hes been di•:soh'ed, Thy should not be dried fu the 83117, If glass drehos and tumblers and other articles of that ware are put into a kettle, covered entirely with cold eater, and the water is allowed to bull quickly for a short time, and if the ket le is then removed from the stove and placed in a cool spot uutil the water has become cold, the articles will be so toughened in the process that tboy will not break ensile Keep the kettle covered tightly until the water hae had thee to cool. arra Notes'. Avoid, as for as possible, in plant- ing e, cued crepe, a suooeesiou of stealer plants on the same land. Of all fertilizers ground bone is the beet mud mast durable where peneral crops are green, but fertil- izers should be varied or consist of all the elements required for a crop. Use a thermometer in the stable, cellar and wherever you wish to know the temperature, and you will save many crops that are stored and also avoid cases of sickness among the animals. In hog pasture, where a movable fence is used so as to change the bogs and thus prevent waste of the clover from tramping down, in a fair season an acre of closer will furnish forage for ten shoats. Do not insist on milking beef cattle all your lifetime when you wish to make money by selling cream or butter. Holsten or Jersey cows will produce twice as much butter as your beef cattle do with the same amount of feed and work. Itis useless to try to get good flowers from bulbs in winter unless you give them a chance to get agood start at the roots before the top be gins to grow. If potted and placed immediately in the window the ac- tion of light and heat will induce the top to start at the same time the route are forming, and the result will be a weak and unhealthy growth. Pumpkins are good feed for Iambs in the fall, especially when they are troubled with paper -skin, paused by worms in the intestines. They will eat them tolerably well if broken up on a Olean and close award, but it is better to provide flat•bottom troughs with compartments, each being large enough to receive the half of a pumpkin split in such fashion as to lie flat, with the inside uppermost. No stable should bo below the freezing point. If a large number of animals are together their bodies will raise the temperature, but if ventilation is desired it should be done in a manner to prevent cold draughts. It is better to keep ani- mals in the stables on damp and windy days, and ventilation should be.given; but how to ventilate with- out doing injury should be consider. ed by alt who keep stook.
