Kilian-wing [\Voman.
The clif1n1ing woman is not in the

habit of aiking about herself and her
own peculiar troubles and grievances.
She has her “bad days” like every-
body' else; but she takes care that
others shall not suffer on her account,
and then she has an attack of the
dumps she isolates herself, in 0: tier
that the infection may spread no £112-
' ther.
he is above all, a sympathe- .3 no-

man, and knows how to make pec pie
feel that she takes an individual in—
terest in them. She is never too b1131-
to lend assistance, and a shake of 1191
hand is as good as a number of 11011..
from any one else. She is a woman
who adapts herself to the varying cir-
cumstances of life, and prefers to 100‘ 1
on the bright side of things. All dis-
agreeable and unkind remarks that she
heais made about others die with her.
and she knows how to say the right
word at the right time. In conversa-
tion she studies the sore points of her
acquaintance, studiously avoids them
and adroitly introduces subjects on
which they can talk best. She is con-
tent to be in the. shadow if she can
make another shine.

Such is the description of “the wo-
man who charms.’ These character-
isties have not been acquired in a flash
but by careful study of herself and
others.

She is by no means a paragon of per-
fection, but, with all her shortcomings,
she is possessed of the valuable art
of charming.

 

: .fii Wall Paper for the Nursery.

I 'For the walls of the nursery select
a pattern 1which will amuse the little
folks. Primary colors please them,
and by avoiding green, which is not
hygienic, one can obtain a safe, wall
picture-book at almost nominal cost.
Mother Goose, Walter Crane’s delight-
ful fairy tales, the nursery favorites
drawn from old German sources, all
give suggestions for these papers. Red
Riding Hood is best omitted, on ac-
count‘of the possible alarm caused in
baby minds by the sight of the wolf
lying in bed.

But scenes of English sports—fox
hunters galloping in their pinks,
hounds in full cry over the' grass
country, scenes of French peasant life
:—may be used if the mother has not
decided upon a fairy tale wall paper.
The animal ’ gures are sometimes good
and the chi dren will try to copy the
creatures iii pencil and paper are pro-
sided upon some rainy day when they
are obliged to be housed.

Delft scenes, imitating old tiles, re-
produce the Dutch .Windmill, canal
boat, scene bordered by poplar trees
and stepped-roof houses are sometimes
nail. These wall papers, however,
are more often selected for the bath-
room or dressing-room. The wall pa—
per depicting a flight of birds is al-
ways a favorite of children, who see
nothing to admire in the plainer
arabesgues that delight soberer fancy.

I ’Uld Women in Charity Homes.

'A visitor to a home for aged women
in Connecticut observed that one of
the inmates, a grim crone of 70, was
troubled by a hacking cough. The
next day she brought her a pot of
growing herbs, bidding her make a
little fresh tea of it daily for her cold.

“11 will not break a leaf of it!” cried
the old woman, her eyes full of tears.
“It ’minds me of home. ‘ It is my own!
Ihave nothing here of my own!” look-
ing round the bare dormitory, with its
rows of beds and single chairs, with
fa dreary disgust.

The other feeble old creatures gath-
ered round the homely little bush with
delight, telling of the herbs and plants
they used to have in their poor homes
before they were laid away here to die.

"Are they not happy here?” the
visitor asked the matron when “she
went out.

“They are comfortable,” was ”the

evasive reply. “They have food and
a. bed. But an old woman wants her
own skin about her at the last, and a
little corner that she can call home.
"These are chilly death-beds,” glancing
back at the rows of white cots. “But
inany families find ‘granny’ a burden.
and get rid of her in this way.”

"It would be better for both the
hearts and manners of the families if
they learned to carry the burden,” said
the visitor as she left the house.

_ 'Partially \Vorn Tablecloths.

I 'When tablecloths are found to begin
’to wear in the middle or at other folds
(and good housekeepers always have
them carefully folded, in one. 'way,
usually,sso.the folds always Wear first).
a-few inches cut off of one end and one
side and rehemmed will alter the place
of all the .folds completely and give a.
new'lease of life. The side hem, to be
turned down once only, and end cat-
stitched and sewed on the machine af-
terwards, looks more like the usual
selvedg-e than the ordinary twice-
turned hem. The same may be done
ito napkins, if large enough to allow ’it,
as well as to towels—though these two
Blast should be hemmed on both sides,
mot, cat-stitched.——-G00d Housekeeping.

 

 

Brown Bread.

The following recipe comes direct I

from a skillful New England house-
keeper, who presumably knows how
brown bread, that invariable acc0m-
paniment to baked beans, should be
made: Mix together two teacupfuls of

rye flour, half a cup of cornmeal, three

quarters of a cup of molasses, three
cups of sour milk, and one and a half
teaspoonfuls of soda. Bake f: 111
hours. _ ‘

year of 1893. The total vintage is esti-
mated at from 15,000,000 to 20,000,000 gal-

be low, owing to competition.
