The Over -Neat Woman.
Of all the various kinds of disposition.-
= women, the too particular female is
,seie of the most uncomfortable, to live
with. She has a certain routine for
svery day in the week, and nothiog, ex -
(Wing, perhaps death, shall interfere
with it If you visit her she is apt to be
always lo)eking at your feet to see if you
-wiped them clean, aid if you take a
child along you are in misery the whole
time, for fear the little one may displace
a chair or touch something that may dis-
please the hostess. You ask her to re-
turn the call, and she will likely answer
that she has no time for gadding, or that
her household duties are enough to oc-
cupy her time. She don't see how Mrs.
Jones across the way, can find so much
time for going out. She, must neglect
her house in a shameful -manner. And
rtpeople who have visited Mrs. Jones
report that there is nothing strikingly
dirty about her house. Her children
have an instinctive habit of Middling to -
tether in a corner and talking in whis-
pers, and of keeping an eye on mother to
:See if she is :going to fiirtd some fault
with them. If they -want to play they
ikust goout of doors. You never see
Ettle wagons, dolls, and picture books
spattered around the floor in that house.
a My children must be orderly and have
if place for everything and everything in
e, place." I am afraid that they obey,
fa the letter, the latter part of the last
iamtence, for they dare not take any-
thing out of its place. Paor little things,
there are no romps in that ; every-
thing is order, order. Now, what is the
nse of being so very neat? It does not
Eenefit you, on the other hand, it simply
Makes you old and careworn, and spoils
lour disposition. It destroys the free
*burn of feeling that should exist be-
tween mother and children. For con-
stant fault-finding will frighten your
tbildren and they will repress their
feelings instead of sharingthem with
you. You may be a good housekeeper
but utterly fail in making your home a
tleasant, cheerful place. Learn the art
cif making the house look tidy without
4oing too much work. If you can't do'
it all yourself, have some of it done for
jou. But aim above all things to make
lour house a place where husband and
iatildren love to be, and where friends
delight to -gather. It can be clean, too
only not so extremely neat as to forbid'
the enjoyment of it. I don't think that
ven in general like that kind of wife.
They want a companion in their other
kali as welt as a housekeeper, and ii you
persist in always working for fear that
dust may collect behind the piano, why
'John will get some one else for his com-
panion. True, there are some women
whose duties ,are so many, and whose
setea.ns are so small that continuous
Work is almost a necessity. But of such
r am, not speaking. It is the woman
w ho is always hunting for dirty corners,
who is afraid to take a walk for fear a
spider may spin a web in some corner
and she not be there to sweep it away.
I have known women who might have
a pretty good time in life, if they were
not so dreadfully particular. Tidy up
the house and be ready when your other
half comes home to sit down and talk to
even although you have a dim sus-
picion that the stove needs blacking
Let the children believe that their home
was made for enjoyment, and do net
feok cross if they litter up the house
with toys, or if your husband's pipe hes
around in all odd corners. Teach them
fo be orderly and save you as much
work as possible, but do not set them
the example of not using things for fear
ctf soiling them. I have known people
who would not read their own books, as
handling them might spot the covers. I
rely have exaggerated somewhat in the
article, but I think you will agree with
lee that the facts are in the main true.
Be clean and neat, but do not aim to be

The Cell Trade-
.
"An inventive youth was once taken
by a horsedealer a hundred miles away
from his native St. Giles's to look after
some stock. _When their journey was
finished the wily elder blackleg beat a
retreat and left his colleague destitute
4nd ,ticketless. There was nothing for
him th.do, but to walk home, Sleeping in
casualWards and living upon his wits.
Luckily he had some of these to live
upon.' .The first night passed happily
away until the morning, when_ he was
clapped into a tiny cell to pick oakum.
He thrust his head out of his small
window and found that he had a view of
a bit of garden where an aged -pauper
was feigning to dig. When he saw our
friend's head the ancient one furtively
drew nigh. 'Hi he whispered, have
you got any baccy ?' Yes, readily re-
plied the rueful oakumist, who of course
had no such thing. The delighted
ancient proposed a barter, two slices of
white bread and butter being his side of
the exchange. Our ": friend eagerly
closed, for his brown hunk and water
pan were untested at his side. While
the aged man hobbled away on his
errand of mercy the imprisoned one
hastily twisted a little oakum in a bit of
old newspaper:- Back came the old man,
and with mutual craft and hesitation an
exchange was affected. What sort do
ye call it?' the recipient asked, untwist-
ing the paper with trembling fingures.
It's the new sort ; they calls it the Vir-
ginear i' replied our friend, in mocking
triumph. A hasty sniff, and the fraud
was out. 'You young varrnent, see if I
do not give it you at eleven o'clock !'
But it was of no avail, for • the youth
loftily 'answered from within, Now, -
then, old 'un, sheer off, or I'll report
you.' Poor old fellow and not one half
flows,' except the inmate, the infinite
preciousness of a plug of tobacco in the
workhouse or the infirmary. The nurse
comes in puffing like Mr. Pauks, snuffs,
snorts, and angrily demands who has
dared to smoke. The invalids stolidly
conceal a quake and burn their fingers
under bedclothes until this tyranny is
overpast, when, with a quiet smile and
a wink to us who are in the secret, they
resume their undiscovered malpractices
without the leave of their guardiana."
Home Comforts for Girls.
Girls love pretty things as naturally
as the bees love sunshine. It is not to
be granted that boys are not susceptible
to beauty in various shapes also; but
to the feminine portion of humanity
comes the greater share of the love of
the beautiful, In the home life, where
so many girls are of necessity kept until
they are grown to womanhood, the op-
portunity for beautifying themselves as
well as their surroundings is often lost
because the father, perhaps, and occa-
sionally the mother also, has grown to
think that simple. prettiness is of no
possible use. They have outgrown their
youthful thoughts, follieS in their eyes
now, and have learned to say, What's
its use? to everything new.
If a girl in her home life he allowed
to rearrange the rooms according to her
teate, to bring into the living -room plants
or simply her flowers to occasionally
have some new ornament, cheep in many
cases it may be, but have It in its _new-
ness a thing of beauty and not have somo
one saying :—It's useless; it can neither
be eaten nor worn—she will take much
more comfort and care much more for
her father's home. There are fathers
who love their daughters—as Well as
they know how—and still they never
allowthem to think money or time can
be spent on anything that is not in -itself
of some obvious use; they pooh _pooh at
the idea of a flower bed ; they object to
vines on the house because they are rub-
bish ; and the idea of a prettily furnish-
ed room, either for the family or for the
daughter herself, is an unheard of
folly.
When these girls go out from the bar-
ren home -life, what wonder that tthey
seldom know how to act in a pleasantly..
appointed home ! and more, what wonder
that the trusting, loving heart 'Sometimes
is too easily led astray through promises
of a pretty home ?
If the horoe-life could be made more
attractive to the young people •, if, in-
stead of this rush and scramble for a
" " all the time, We in- ight be con-
tent with a little less, and spend more
time for comfort, our young people
would love their berries better and be far
loopier as they grow up.
Some one has said that "bur wants
are measured- by what our neighbors
have," and young peo-ple want much
nore intensely than older. ones. Then
give the girls, and boys as well, all the
prettiness possible a d so teach them
nore real heart love fpr home.—The In-
dustrial.
It is Curious who Give.
"It's curious who give. There's
Squire Wood, he's put down $2; his
farm's worth 810,000, and he's money
at interest. And there's Mrs. Brown,
she's put down -5; and I don't believe
she's had a new gown in two years, and
her bonnet ain't none of the newest, and
she's them three grand children to sup-
port since her 'son was killed in the
army ; and she's nothing btit her pension
to live on. Well she'll have to scrimp
on butter and tea for awhile, but she'll
pay it. She just loves the cause
that's why she gives"
These were the utterances of Deacon
Daniel after we got home from churche
the day pledges were; taken for contri-
butions to foreign Missions. He was
reading them off, and I was taking down
the items, to -find the aggregate. He
went on:
"There's Maria Hill, she's put down
$5 ; she teaches in t e North District,
and don't have but 20 a month, and
pays her board; an she -has to help
support her mother * * * And
there's John Baker; he's put down one
dollar, and he'll chew more than that
worth of tobacco in it fortnight.' 'Cyrus
Dumaing,* $4.' Wel he'll have to do
some extra painting ith that 'crippled
liand, but he'll do it, and sing the Lord's
songs while he's at wclrk. 'C. Williams,
$10.,' Good for hith. He said the other
night to prayer -meeting that he'd 'leen
reading his bible more than usual lately.
Maybe he read •abotit the rich young
man teho went away sorrowful, and
didn't want to be ir. his company."

Catarrh—a Ner Treatment.
Perhaps the most extraordinary success that
has been achieved in modern- medicine has been
attained by the Dixon Treatment for Catarrh.
Out of 2,000 patients treat during the past six
' inonths, fully ninety, per crit, have been cured
of, this stubborn malady. This is none the less
starbling when it is renienliered that no five per
cent. of patients presentiIng themselves to the
regular practitioner are I benefitted, while the -
patent medicines and ollther advertised tures
never record a cure at a 1. Starting with the
claim now generally belieeed by the most scien-
tific men that the disease is due to the presence
of living parasites in the tissue, Mr. Dixon at
once adapted his cure to their extermination—
ehis accomplished, he claims the Catarrh is prac-
tically cured, and the permanency is unquestion-
td, as cures effected by him four years ago are
cures still. No one else has ever attempted to
cure Catarrh in this nianner, and no other treat
ment has ever cured Catarrh. The application
of the remedy is simple,-Pand can be done at
home, and the present season et the year is the
most favorable for a speedy and permanent cure,
the majority of cases being cured at one treat-
ment. Sufferers should correspond with Messrs.
