flirt: de an In th During one of Henry Moorehouse’s preaching tours he spent several weeks in a mining district. A hardened sinner who worked in the mines was persuaded to go to hear him. He was a man peculiarly hard to reach, because, although at the time one of the most profane and vicious men in the neighborhood, he had once been a member of the Methodist Church and had himself often given religious addresses. When he lapsed into sin he surprssed all his companions in his blasphemy and obscenity. Having heard Moorhouse, he was asked what he thought of his preachinrr. "No good,” was the reply. “That sort won’t turn miners. You’ve got to preach hell-fire to them, scare ’em, and threaten ’em, Preaching love of God is no use here. He won’t get a convert you’ll see." But the man who thus criticized the preacher went again to hear him the next night. Moor- house had the same subjectâ€"-God’s infinite love to lost sinners, his yearning over backsliders, his pleadings and promises to the returning prodigal. The miners expected to see the man who had stigma- tized such preaching as useless, get up and leave the place in disgust. But instead of doing so they saw him deeply moved. His great shoulders shook with emotion and at the close of the service, they saw him fill his knees tears running down his cheeks. begging God to receive him, even i him. It was the turningpoint in his life. I From that time forward, like Peter, he Was humbled by his fall and Sought byl every means in his power to show the love and zeal which hIS restoration had awak- enetl. But we cannot follow with the mother that: child’s pathway through life. For her, while he is under her care, there will always be self-sacrifice in the present and the future. She is no longer her own. since she has become a mother. A tender child hand, visible or invisible, is always drawing her, often when she would be wholly free. It is written “She that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.” This is even true of the maiden, in her glad days of girlhood. Mere pleasure is not the end of any human life, at any stage, though much innocent joy may be, and should be if possible, the ortion of all God’s creatures. A mother, owever, has turned her back upon self- indulgence in any form, when once her little one has been laid in her arms. The first years of a child are all your own. Begin at once to mould him for a pure life on earth, and a bright future in the Heavenly Home. Be methodical, be gentle, be firm with him, from the very first. Let the boy be early taught goed habits, and to be subject to your will, as to food and sleep and cleanliness, before his own will can assume the mastery over his fleshly habitation. Give him an atmosphere of love to grow in. Keep him happy by your cheerfulness, let your smiles prompt his own. As soon as he can fold his hands for thanksgiving, associate that thanksgiving with his daily food. Let him early remember to trust himself, loved and forgiven, to the care of his Heavenly Father for the night, and wake to thank that Eather for peaceful sleep and a new day of blessings. am “If on the earth his soul remain, His soul shall gather many a stain; “At thy behest I reach my hand To lift him to the heavenly land,” The mother heard and bored her head, And laid her cheek against the deadâ€" And cried, "O God lâ€"I dare not Drayâ€" Thou answerest in so strange a way!" In shadow of a taper’s light, She sat and moaned the livelong night. But when the morning brought the sun, She prayed, “Thy will, 0 God, be done!” -â€"Theodore T ilto'n. Within the door the darkness crept, And babe and mother sweetly slept. The belfry rang the midnight bell; The watchman answered “All is well.” Awaking at the crsdel side, The mother knew the babe had died. With grief to set a woman wild She caught and clasped the marble childâ€" Until her heart against his own Was broken, beating on a stone! “Oh ch2” she cried in her despair, Why has: thou mocked a mother’s prayer. Then answered He, “As I have willed Thy prayer, 0 woman, is fulfilled, A‘mother’a holy arm caressed Jrhabe that laughed upon her t, Then thus to heaven she cried i wet; Now even as his face is fair, O Lord? keep Thou his soul within A: free from any Spot of sin.’ From heaven the Lord an answer made, “Behold !

In the first place there should be a suticient sup- ply of pans that those emptied and washed in the morning need not be used until even- ing or the next day. After washing they should be placed in the sunlight until used. On cloudy days they can be thoroughly dried about the stove and not nested when they are wet, and allowed~ to thus remain for several hours, as in that condition they cannot dry, and when separated at night they will give of? a disagreeable odor, and the warm milk placed in them is certain to be contaminated. All tin dairy utensils should be first washed in boiling water, then.thoroughly rinsed in clean cold water, and turned bottom side up to drain and dry until again used. All vessels about the dairy should be cleaned as soon as emptied, and not allowed to stand neglected for hours thereafter. The shelves, benchs and racks upon which the pans are set should be washed with soap and water every time they are cleared. Even a few drops of milk allowed to remain on them to mold or gum up with butter fat would prove un- healthy, and detrimental to the milk in the same apartment. Where only a few cows are kept the same scrupulous cleanli- ness should be observed. The surface of the butter in the tubs should be covered with a cloth saturated with strong brine, both during and after the filling is com- pleted. Locate the filled tubs in a cool, dark portion of the cellar. examine once a week, and if the brine is found oozing through the staves, it should be wiped away and not allowed to remain and stain the wood, giving it a most uninviting look. mea: Immigration Restr:;.:i-:- \VASHIM’HON, Dec. ‘2Lâ€"W Griffin, who has been doing irm work for the United States in E1 the past three years, reports tn 3. n Care of Dairy Utensils.

The tone of American conversation is proverbinlly high, and the questions dis- cussed in London drawing-rooms, often in the presence of men and young girls, are entirely avoided in America, except by that foolish and limited set who live to eat, dress and imitate nothing but the follies of the English. I Those who do not play cards will form themselves into a. circle to discuss some book or play or picture. There will be little or no personal scandal discussed. After luncheon she will either recline it: a. rocking chair or sit down at a. table to play whist or progressive euchre. Every house furnishes at least a. score of rocking chairs, and one’s first introduction to a ladies’ social circle is decidedly a. bewilder- ing one, for each individual chair rocks its own time, and the effect upon the brain is analogous to that which would be pro- duced upon the ear were each individual instrument in an orchestra to keep its own time. She will welcome the new comer, whether her husband happens to deal inland or law, stocks or sugar, medicine or morals. It is all “business” in her eyes, and she cannot understand the delicate lines drawn between standing behind the counter of a bank or c! a. grocer’s store. The American woman is essentially genial. She is not so terribly anxious to know the pedigree and occupation of every stranger who may happen to build a. house next to hers, or take the next pew to hers at church. But alfthis does not fret the American woman. She may look worrid up till noon, but she will then dress in a. well-made gown, which she will don With the grace of a French woman,_ and will drive in her pretty phaeton to a ladies’ lunch arty. where she will be all vivacity am; good humor. : Probably both husband and wife are pos- f sessed of “real estate” in the form of “town lots,” which they invested in while still in their teens, and presently they put up a “frame” house. possibly..of considerable architectural beauty, in which they settle down, proudly complacent that they, too, have at length a "beautiful” home. mm cmnr DELIGHT. If the chief satisfaction of the American man is pointing out the “millionaire” to the traveller, the still greater delight of the woman is to drive her visitors round the “city” to see the “beautiful homes” which industry and energy have reared. And here the American woman has afar more arduous part to play in home-making than has an English sister. Gutside the narrow pale of the gilded “400” of New York and Chicago, where servants in stately routine may be found to the number of 10 or 15 in a household, the average American woman has a daily and hourly struggle with domestic help. sun DOESN’T FRET. Further Weet housekeepmg is more dif- ficult still, and I have seen the wife of a Cabinet Minister, accustomed to all the stateliness of foreign courts, and with abun- dant wealth at command, at 10 o’clock in the moming,dressed in a loose wrapper, go- ing the rounds of her mansion as general housekeeper.

The young people have a suite of rooms set apart for them where they spend their cosy evenings alone, while they join the family circle for meals, or in turn entertain their relations and friends in their own lit- tle household. Young wives, as a. rule, have no home of their own. The girl, not infrequently, brings her yenng husband to live in the house of her parontn, for the mother-in-law is no such femme terrible as she is suppos- ed to be with us.
