I'm Not The Baby Now.
I'm not the baby now, they say.
But that must be a fib !
A nasty, noisy thing to -day
Has clairn'el my little crib !

I can't get peace to sing:
I wonder what they got, hien for,
The noisy little thing !
Ile shuts his fists as if to fight,
And rubs them in hie eve ;
He keeps us up most half the night
With most unearthly cries !
Cue :—It does. nothing else but cry !crv&c.
And yet papa he calls him "dear !"
rid tnamina calls him " pet !'
I'm no more use at home, I fear,
And that's what makes me fret !
Cud :—It does nothing else but cry cry
lam not the baby now, I know,
But that's no sewn why
A little coon like it should go
And thus put out my eye .

When the top-utan comes in,
We'll trade him for a nice new doll,
And stop his noisy din !

And so you are married to Joe. Shelton,
are you? Do tell me who was the beet man
at the wedding ? " My husband."
—The " whale duty of woman" is to look
pretty, and do as she is told. The "whole
duty of man" is to see that she does it.
—A lady said to Dr. Johnston—" Do you
really believe, doctor, that the dead walk
after death?" " lkladam," said the doctor,
"I have no doubt about it; I have heard
the "Dead March" in Saul.
- —Medical Item—" Doctor, I came to see
about my brother." " What is the matter
withhirn ?" " One of his legs is shorter than
the other, and he limps. Now, what would
you do in a case of that kind ?" "1 am
afraid I should limp, too.
—Gave himself away—Mrs. Sharpeye (at
hotel)—" That couple tries to act as if they
had been married for years, but I know they
sire on their wedding tour." Mr. Sharpeye
—"Guess not." Mre. S—" Yes, they are,
He gave her the tender loin of the steak."
—Mr. Manners—" Can you tell me why
poor Mrs. Hutton fainted when ehe came in
to dinner ?" Miss Sprite—" 011, yes poor
thing. Yon see she had matched her
lavender dress by gaslight, and the room
was lit by electric light. So, of course,they
didn't ha,rroonise, and the shock was too
much for her."
—Blessed is the Peacernaker.—Fond
mother—" So you made Tommy and Willie
stop fighting, did you? I'm glad to see that

Mamma's joy: " Well, it was this way—
Tommy was gettin` licked, so I just sailed in
an' pasted Billy ona in the jew ; an' when I
got through with him he didn't feel much
like stoppin' and havin' it out with Tommy."
Please, ma, mayn't I have a lock of
papa's hair? I want it so bad." "Yes,
my child; just see there, George, what an
affectionate little fellow he is. That child
has more heart than any child of his age I
ever saw. He wants to have a lock of your
hair as a keep sake." "What do you want
the hair for, Johnny ?" asked Mr. Peterby.
"I want to tie it on the tail of my hobby
horse, his tail is so thin," replied the affec-
tionate little creature.

Uncle Sam is more famed for seuse and
shrewdness than for more graceful qualities,
but once in a while he does a pretty thing.
Ellis Island, New York, the magnificent
new landing -station which now replaces the
far-famed Castle Garden, where for a great
many years thousands of wondering and ex-
pectant immigrants have first set foot on the
soil of " the Happy Land," was opened for
use on the first day of the present year.
It had been arranged that the first immi-
grant to land there ahould be welcomed
with a gift of ten dollars in -gold.
The first yeesel to send a load of immi-
grants ashore at the new station was the
• steamer Nevada. She lay in the harbor not
far away, waiting a signal from the island.
When the flag on the tall flag -staff was
dipped three times, a tug shot swiftly from
the ahadow of her great hull, and steamed
toward the wharf, and as it approached
nearer there were many guesses among
those who knew of the waiting gold eagle as
to the nationality, 6ex and age of the lucky
person who would be first to land.
With the officials were gathered a crowd
of friends and relatives of expec:ted passeu-
gers, and among the most eager of these was
a hard-werking, industrious Irishman named
Matthew Moore. He had come to the
United Statee some time before with his
wife, leaving his children behind in Ireland
until be could earn a home for them. -He
hei earned it, and had sent for them, and
they were coming by the Nevada.
Suddenly he cried out joyfully, " There'e
Annie!"
A bright little girl of fifteen—born, indeed,
on the First of January fifteen years before
to a day—waved to him from the deck of
the tug, and pressed forward with her two
little brothers cloae to the railing as the
vessel was moored to the wharf.
The gang -plank we lowered, but a stout,
middle aged German, muffled to the eyes in
shawls, thrust past her, and had set his foot
upon it when be was caught back by a deck -
hand, who, with a touch of Irish gallentry,
cried out, Ladies first !" and pushed his
little fellow -country woman forward in the
man's place. She sprang aahore, and was
clasped in her father's arms.
As her foot touched the wharf, the ai..isern-
bled crowd set up a ringing cheer. They
gave the aetanished little maiden three
times three, and then, when her father re-
leased her, to hug the two little boys, a
gentleman stepped up and completed her

hand a beautiful, shining gold eagle—a
richer coin than she had ever dreamed of
possessing. He told her that it was a New

told him that it was a birthday present too.

Couldn't Place Him.
Remarkable stories are told of the gift
which many public characters have for re-
membering the names and faces of com-
paratively unimportant persons. It may be
consoling to persons who lack this pleasant
faculty that they have distinguished com-
pany. Mr. Joseph Jefferson has difficulty
in remembering names. He told this story
to a friend :
"1 was coming down in the elevator of
the Stock Exchange building,/and at one of
the intermediate floors a man whose face I
knew as well as I know yours got in. He
greeted me very warm* at once, said it
was a number of years since we had met,
and was very gracious and friendly.
"But I couldn't place him for the life of
me. I asked him as a sort of a feeler how
he happened to be in New York, and he
answered with a touch of surprise that he
had lived there for several years. Finally I
told him in an apologetic way that I could-
n't recall his name.
" He looked at me for a moment, alICT-
then he said very quietly that his name was
U. S. Grent." _
"What did you do, Joe?" his friend
asked.
" Do ?" he replied, with a characteristic
smiIe. "Why, I got out at the next floor
for fear I should be fool enough to ask him
if he had ever been in the war !"
until tbey were endued with power from 011
high. Is that why so many tarry at home,
because they have not sufficient epiritual
power to urge them forth beyond the limits
of their own city?"
"My dear," said Frances, "there is never
any use of arguing with you; send your
money; as for me, I have none left. I wish
I had thought of this before. Remind me
next year.'
"What good will it do. for me to remind
you? May the Lord remind you! then you
cannot forget. But see, it is growing very
dark; I must run home."—Helping Hand.
Advice to the Engaged Man,
If you think that a woman is any weaker -
minded than a man, stop where you are.
If you have chosen a pretty woman with-
out regard to her qualities, halt, you are on
the wrong road.
If you think that a house should have on-
ly one head and that head be yours, post-
pone your wedding indefinitely.
If you have an idea that you are too good
Lor a picked -up dinner remain a bachelor.
If you are of the opinion that marriage
makes man and wife one and that you are
to be that one, send in your regrets at once.
If you intend to treat yourself any better
than you treat your wife, don't take one.
If you have found it a hard task to be
happy yourself, don't try to make Any one
else happy.
If you suppose that running the house
consists in paying the bills, don't under-
take it.
If you are one of those men who think ten
per cent. of their income belongs to the
tap -room, in Heaven's name let marriage
alone.
If you incline to the opinion that any
manners are good enough for home manners,
don't try to have a home.
If you intend to encourage your wife by
telling her that her cake, • puddings, and
pies are not so good as those your mother
used to make, don't go any further ; break
the engagement.
Mary's Christmas Tenth.
Mary ran in for a moment on her way
home. It was nearly dark, butt she did not
mind that, for she had been out shopping
for Christmas. One is never tired, you
know, at such times; the shops are so
beautiful and everybody is so gay.
Mary came in, as I said, to show Frances
„what she had been buying. They opened
the dainty parcels, and talked excitedly
about how this would please mother, and
this was just what baby wanted, and so on
to the end of the family connection.
"And now," said Mary, "let me tell you
whati have done. I have been saving my
Christmas money for months, and really I
have had more given me to spend than I ex-
pected. I determined at the very beginning
that I would keep a tenth of it for mis-
sions."
" Save Christmas money for missions !"
exclaimed Frances, quite taken by surprise;
"who ever heard of such a thing ?"
"1 have," answered Mary stoutly. "If
you buy Christmas gifts for everybody else,
why not send ono to Him whose feast
Christmas is It looka odd, to say the least,
to rentember every one else and pass Him
by."
"Yee, yes," said Frances; but there are
the poor; why not give your money to the
poor?"
"Are not the heathen the poorest of the
poor? The people our missionaries teach
have very little in this world and nothing in
the next. Besides, it was to save our souls
that Christ came, brieging gifts."
"But they are so far away. Surely there
are plenty of poor at home,—people who
need the Gospel, too."
"And plenty of people to care- for them.
As far as their bodily wants are concerned,
hundreds of people, who care very little for
Christ, give to the poor at Christmas tine.
Every Sunday school, too, has its festival,
eepecially for the poorer children. I think
they can spare my little money. As to
their souls, there are church's enough in
this country to peeach the Gospel to every
creature in it. '
"But they don't," persisted Frances.
"Well, perhaps they don't but they could.
.A great many people do not hear the Gospel
because they will not. It has been preached
to them by the pulpit, the Sunday school,
even by the daily paper. They cannot get
away from it unless they shut their eyes
and ears. But think how it is in Asia and
Africa. Millions of people have never heard
of Christ's existence. It seems to me that I
must do something to help them to a knowl-
edge of the way of salvation. You know
that we are told to preach to all nations."
"Beginning at Jerusalem," quoted Fran -
i
ces.
" Yes ; but they were to tarry there only

Pitcher's Castoria:
Into the " Kag.
In the old colonial day, when a well -to do
woman owned one silk dress, wore it for a
lifetime, and then bequeathed it still in good
condition to her children, the buying of that
precious garment was a serious matter in-
deed. At sixteen, if her father could afford
to buy it for her, a girl was considered of
age to possess the coveted gown, and sweep
proudly forth in it to full young ladyhood.
Often a country girl would travel many
miles with father or brother to seect the
fabric in the nearest large town. Often, too,
the purchase was deferred until she was
about to marry, and she went instead with
the young man of her choice, and the couple
bought at the same time their household
furniture and the wedding dress of the
bride.
It is pleesant to think of the mizigled de-
light and -anxiety --of such a pair of old-time
lovers out shopping together; but there is
one instance at least on recordherNe New-
bury
expedition ended in disaster.
A young man and maiden from id
bury had ridden to Boston, a jo rney of
forty miles, on horseback, the prospective
bride mounted behind her betrothed upon a
pillion. They bad relatives in the city
with whom they staid overnight, and were
thus enabled to make their purehases at
their leisure, with careful consideration, for
each.
At length everything was bought or bar-
gained for, and the bundles securely tied up
and arranged for the return johtney, but
when the moment arrived for the bride to
remount upon the pillion she foundsome
difficulty in accomplishing the feat and to
make it easier for her the horse waa brought
close to.the side of a large hogshead, stand-
ing in what is now Dock Square, Boston.
With the aid of a box she mounted to the
top, and was about to step thence to the
horse's back when the heading gave way be-
neath her feet, and she was precipitated
with a splash and a shriek into the contents
of the hogshead, which was filled to the
brim with good West India molasses !
Blinded, sticky and sputtering the un-
fortunate young woman cried for help, and
struggled vainly to scramble out of her
sugary prison. She could do nothing un-
assisted, and when she had cleared her eyes
sufficiently tolook for her escort, she beheld
that unworthy gallant, overwhelmed by the
ridicule of the situation, in the act of riding
away and leaving her to her fate.
"Joseph ! "she screamed desperately after
his retreating figure, "Joseph ! Joseph! You
come back and get me ont of this kag o'
sweetenin', or I'll never marry you—never !"
Joseph returned. The deserted bride,
who must certainly have possessed an ex-
ceptionally forgiving disposition, pardoned
and married him, and the story of their mis-
adventure has been handed down among
their descendants to the present day.
Some Uses of Borax.
Dissolve a small quantity of borax in
-warm water, and you will Lind it equally
good for waehing. your hair and your hair-
brushes. Some people clean their teeth
with borsx ; and it will often relieve a sore
mouth. Used as a gargle, it will check a
tickling cough if it proceeds from the pres-
ence of phlegm in the throat. If you wish
to clean a copper kettle, wet a coarse cloth
with hot water, soap it well, and sprinkle
powdered borax on It; then rub the kettle
briskly and rinse it out with hot water. If
you use cold starch for your collars and
cuffe, a little borax dissolved in water before
adding the starch will make them look bet-
ter and iron more easily. Lastly, it is said
that two ounces of borax and two of alum
put into a twenty -barrel cistern of soft
water that looks black or oily will cause
the sediment to fall to the bottom, and so
cleanse the water that in a few hours it can
be used for washing.
Common Thieves.
There are other things of which people
can be robbed which are of fully as much
value as those that attract street thieves or
burglars; and there is one kind of robber
whose thefts are never ceasing, and yet do
not bring him before a judge.
This thief is the one who steals people's
satisfaction and comfort and pleasure at
every turn by giving free play to his sarcas-
tic, grumbling, or slighting spirit on all oc-
casions. To be sure he is his -own worst
enemy, but so are -all thieves for that
matter.
"What a good concert that was !" says
some enthusiastic music lover who has just
had 13, to her rare treat.
"Did you think so ?" asks the thief,
scornfully.
"Why, there was. hardly a difficult
piece on the programme, and all those
things have been played by fine pianists as
mere bagatelles. I wonder that the audi-
ence sat so patiently."
Then the euthusiest feels her ardor damp-
ened, and is perhaps eveu a little ashamed
of it.
"Isn't this a pretty gingham ?" says an-
other girl. "And it was such a bargain !
You know I have to be economical, and I
got this for only twenty cents a yard."
"They are selling them for fifteen cents a
yard Dow," reinarks the thief, dryly. " I
presume they'll be reduced to ten cents by
next week, and they'll be dreadfully com-
mon this summer."
The pretty gingham goes back into the
drawer, while its purchaser tries to feel as
pleased with it as she war; before.
"There !" say -a the small boy of the fam-
ily, his cheeks flushed with triumph, I've
igues3ed the first five phezles in my new
book, and it's only taken'rhe about an hour."
"I should think that was long enough, in
all conscience," says the, thief, in a biting
tone. "They're as simple as A B C. I
guessed them in less than ten minutes !"
So the flush of triumph in the little puz-
zler's face gives place to a glow of mortifi-
cation.
There are a great many of these thieves in
the world, and the strangest thing about
them is that they do not want what they
steal ; the good nature and pleasure and
satisfaction that they take from other peo-
ple they have no e ay of using. Yet they
go on thieving day after day.-

An Old Lady's Great Family.
Mrs. Charles Conat, a remarkable old
lady, residing at 17 Weeson svenue,Detroit,
Michigan, has 201 offsprings, 153 of whom
are living.
Mrs!. Comet was born July 30, 1802, near
a small town in Northern 'Pennsylvania.
When a mere child her parents, Amos
Hugglebom and wife moved to Ontario,
where this daughter gained a I limited edu-
cation.
In 1819 she married CharleE Conat, with
whom she lived five and a lhalf decades.
When he died she was the mother of
thirteen children, twelve of whom they saw
married and ten of whomare living at
present.
Mrs. Conat recalls very distinctly the
war of 1812. Although she was but ten
years of age she was living in the very midst
of it.
She now spends all of her time visiting
her children, grandchildren and great grand
children. She travels from orle to the other
unattended. Her eyesight and health are
exceedingly good, and she s4vs and knits
almost constantly. Each of her children
and grandchildren can ehow a present of
grandmother's work.
It has been said, and the writer has never
heard it contradicted, that 11Irs. Conat has
more offsprings than any other living person,.
all of whom she has seen, She is the mother
of thirteen, three of whom are dead; shelter;
had seventy four grandchildren, • twenty
three of whom are dead ; 01 great grand
children, tweuty one of whom are dead, and
thirteen great-great-grandchilldren, one of
whom is dead.
This makes a total of 201 children, 153
of them alive and well. The oldest great -
great -grandchild is a girl of fifteen. These
figures do not include daughters in-law or
sons-in-law, but give the actual number of
offsprings.
•
Starching and Illoning.
There are a great many housekeepers to
whom a few hints about starching and iron-
ing cuffs, collars, and shirt -bosoms would be
acceptable. •Alany have tried to give their
linen a laundry finish, and have given up in
despair. I think if such will follow my
directione they will be delighted, not only
with the beautiful gloss on the linen, but
also with its stiffness and elasticity.
Always dry the linen before starching.
To make the starch, wet two tablespoons
of starch, smooth in a little cold water, pour
on a quart of boiling water, stirring rapidly
till it boils. Add a piece of "enamel " the
size of a hazelnut. To make the " enamel,"
inelt together with gentle heat one ounce
white wax and two ounces spermaceti.
Let the starch boil ten minutes. While
hot put in collars, cufls, etc., work them
thoroughly through the starch, and wring.
To half a cup of the boiled starch add a
teaspoon of starch wet' smooth in two
tablespoons of cold water. Take each piece
of linen that has been through the hot starch
spread on a clean table or sheet, and with
the fingers rub this mixture of boiled and
raw starch OLT and into each piece, stretch-
ing and smoothing, running the fingers
under plaits in shirt bosoms, and smoothing
out all wrinkles ; dry, wring a towel not too
dry out of cold water, lay each piece on
this seperatelty, and roll tight.
In half an hour they are ready to iron.
After ironing them smooth with an ordinary
iron, lay them on a hard wood board and
rub with a polished iron—the one with a
round end of "Mrs, Pott's irons " can be
used. A great deal depends on the dexterity
with which you use the " heel" of this iron.
A little practising, however, will secure
surprising results. Perhaps it would be
well to add one hint more : everything
should be perfectly clean.
