The Contamination.
There was a young woman in our town
Who aspired to be a poet,
As her mind was a garden of beautiful
thoughts,
And she wanted the world to know if.
She read every poem that she could find,
• Its style and figures dissented.' •
She studied its rythm, its metre and feet,
To learn how they were constructed.
But all she saw was letters and points—
So few indeed 'twas surprising—
That she thought in them she had found ab

A Defence of the Trailing Gown.
If ever a woman, might pose ast 8 mis-
underatood martyr, it is she who wears the
trained gown. Press and people unite in
denouncing this most graceful, most artistic,
most convenient and most scrupulously neat
of all modes. The average gown cannob be
lifted on the street—at leasb by any woman
who has any reverencse for grace ; the trail-
ing gown is made to belifted, and its wearer
is thus proaerved intact from all the various
horrors of street duet, do ardently described
in the press
The Secret of all this atrocious misunder-
standing of the train is simply that it is aza
emanation of the masculine intellect thab
cannot, alas 1 know by personal experience
anything of its comfort, The trained gown
=Andes all its weight in one place, and
so skillfully designed and draped that
touch it can be lifted, while the ordin-
akirt, befrilled and beflounced, needs a
en. pair of hands to raise it.
b is quite dine that the claim of the
Ring gown bo the highest known degree
hygienic value, temporary comfort and
may be seb forth. It has been reviled

Says a New England housekeeper: "Do
you know the want of not having winter

and have the top taken offend drive a large
peg in the top for a handle to the cover, so
that you can wily take it off. Then put in
the bottom of the barrel a small, open vial
of chloroform. Put in your woolen things
and shut it up. If there are eggs innumer-
able ready to hatch, the insects will die and
• do no harm. If you want a garment for an
evening drive or a ohilly day, take it out
and use it, fold it and lay it back again and
nothing in the moth line will disturb it."
The wife of a young electrician, we
known in New York, has just returned
home after a protracted sojourn in Buffalo,
.where natural. gas is alractab as much of is
household neeeesity and convenience as is
running water. She has many stories to
tell about the labonsa ring uses to which
natural gas, combined with electricity, is
put. The one that interests her husband
most is her description of an arrangement
which the saw in the house of a Buffalo
friend whereby the master or mistress of
the house can upon awakening on a froaty
morning, teal an electric button in the
headboard of the bedstead and light the
fires in the dressing -room, dining -room and
kitohen. Another electric signat arouses
the cook, and by the time thab she reaches
the kitchen she finds a hot fire awaiting her.
The house meanwhile becotnes comfortably
warm while the members of the family are

luncheons of the most delightful and draried
"rent.any of the came of clyepepsia and
aneereits so commou among wheel children
are due partly to the whool lunch. The
other causes are ehildrenes and parent's
lamentable anci astonishing ignorance of the
use and abuse of that noblest organ of man
—his stornaoh, the delicate engine than rans
the maohinery of life.
Tho best medical authorities declare that
children should not have meat more than
onee a day, and then it should be hot,. rare
and juiey, impossible to the meat packed in
a lunch.
Therefore, in preparing a lunoh, omit the
usual ham, corned. beef or dried beef. Do
nob wrap up the WWI in a bit of newspaper
or even brown paper. It is euro to become
damp and greasy. There are more whole-
some things than printers' bait taken inter-
natly, and there is absolutely nothing more
unappetizing and disagreeable than the
paper m which bread and butter has been
carried for several hours. And, besides
think of all the disease germs that might be
absorbed in that greasy, damp surface.
Don% fail to, impress the cardinal doctrine
of health and proper mastication upon the
children, and then don't give them soft,
mushy foods.
But, to leave the negative aide of the
question, in the first place, insist open a
bon or basket. The the abovainationsehould
be frowned upon indiscriminately.

Having got so far, the serious part of the
question conres up again—what to put in

teems be cooked, ao much the better.
A nicely. baked apple or pear, baked in a
syrup, is one of the most appetizing and
heelthful ttiings» It moat be remembered
that a child's craving for sweets is not an
idle whim, but one of nature's implanted
desires, to be gratified. If it be an inordi-
nate desire, of course there's something
wrong. If the meat supply is insufficient,
a child will be apt to crave more sweet stuff
than usuaL Candy, therefore, which so
many mothers strive to prevent their child-
ren from eating, should not he forbidden
them. The supply shonly be regulated,
however, and the wise mother will divert
the taste from the doubtful, dusty material
of the street corner stand, by supplying in
each day's lunch a few pieces of chocolate,
a couple of caramels or squares of loaf
sugar. .
Milk ehould be given as a drink either in
a tin flask or an ordinary glass bottle, the
latter having the advantage on the wore of
clement:wen the former on that of durability.
Milk, a graham (meeker and an apple are
the ideal lunch, furniehing all the nutri-
ment necessary to the human body. •Pie

There is a, difference of opinion about the
banana. Borne consider it a most indi-
'gestible fruit, while the late experimenters
with lb find that it contains more nutriment
than a porterhouse steak.
Brown bread and butter, fruit, crackers,
dates, an apple or orange, milk and a num-
ber of household satiation daintily pre-
pared, will suffices for any child's school
limeheon.
• To Make Washing Blankets Easy.
If one has a suitable place for the pur-
pose, the washing of blankets may become
an easy matter. In an open space have a
line tightly stretched out of doors. To
this fasten the upper edge of the him:ikon
Have strips of cotton sewed to the bottom

well into the ground. Now turn on 'the

it. Drench the blankets well on both sides.
If eaueh oiled, rub spots with soap and
drawee again. The forcer of the stream will
do more than wringing. After the article
is quite clean, leave it to dry ; never mind
int does rain ; if the work lawbeen thorough
it will not streak, but be all the better for
it. When the sun has completed the task,
you will proems blankets SS white, sofb end
