Five Little Pigs.

To buy him some crackers and cheese,
But instead of a lunch
He bought a big bunch

This little pig staid at home
And said. with u heartrending wall,
"The air it so dump
it will give me the cramp
And take all the curl from my tail."
This little pig had a piece‘ of bread and
: butter.
“I'm tidy," quoth she. “though I‘m f ."
Then it dropped on her gown, »
The buttered side down.
And, oh, how she hiccoughed at that!
This little pig had none,
Not a crumb nor a moi-sol of bread,

Until it Was late.
And then he went hungry to bed.
This little pig» said: “ch, wee, was! 1

But no wender the rogue Went astray.
For he run down the street
When he heard the drums best.
And he fpllowcd the circus all day.

new Lamps Should Be Used.
In many households the cure of the
lamps is left to thoughtless, inexperienced
and irresponsible persons, and tho (:Ulliifh
quencea of such u course are not duiicult to
imagine. While there are explosions and
accidents thntnro in no respect due to luck
of precaution, those that come from sheer
carelessness and neglect ure legion.
Lumps that are in continual use should
be cleaned every day, and at least once ev-
ery two weeks the wicks should be taken
out, boiled in weal; potash water or code,
rinsed, and when thoroughly dry returned
to the lamps. This course will be produc-
tive of very much better light and will cun-
duce greatly to their safety. .
Glues lumps should be carefully cxnin-
inod when they are clmued to see if the
metal collars that hold the burners are
firmly set. Explosions often cccm bemusc
the collar is loose and the burner bccmncs
covered with oil, which has a fancy for
creeping up around anything with which
it comes in immediate contact. When u
lighted match lilimught uwrit, the oil on
the burner, which is the more volatile perv
tirin of the liquid, ignites and the flame
runs down into the lmwl of the lamp and
sets the contents on fire. If one has the
quickness and nerve to catch the lump nnd
throw it out of doors, the danger may be
safely passed, but us every one has not this
ability the impnrulucc of proper precuul

sewed n band of linen, closely drawn and
covering it completely. The bottle is than

and afterward the rinsing water is pressed
