I'- This is a healthful and hopeful state of affairs. There is no greater com- Dliment that can be paid to parents than to have the children always will- ing to remain in the house. It shows good feelings and fellowship between parent and child, and an absence of the dread and fear that is one of the mmt. mthntio abuses of a child life. tics of all sorts with the furniture, and nobody objects as long as they do not indulge in breakage and quarrel- ling. The line is drawn at that point. The din is sometimes dreadful, but there are two wise parents who have learned by a careful study of the child- ren in the neighborhood that nonse at home is a good deal better than sly there is scarcely a suggestion of going out of evenings. When the child- ren are invited to the neighborsnthey sometimes meet the imitation With a sigh and the remark: “Oh, I supposle we will have to go I” They are a- wa 5 de hted when their little frieynds colge to see them, because they declare they can have so much more fun at home.

It is a good time to take cold, and stirring around in the wind and early spring weather is fre- quently the cause of rheumatism and much suffering. i The housecleaninq should be entered éinto in a systematic manner and the If “ line of action” should be fully map. ped out in our minds before we} begin. 3 Do not rush at the housecleaning, or 5attempt to clean the whole house at 3 one time. Do not try to do the work alone. It is not wise economy. Even if you do not employ help during any other season of the year have a good strong girl at this time.

No doubt it will take some time to teach them correctly, but if the mo- ther will not take enough interest in them to be their instructor, who will? The offer of help from the little dau- ghters are so often refused that they become careless, and would rather run 'out to play when they become older lthan do housework. Prolably half of l the dislike for housework among young ‘women is due to this very lack of in- terest on the part of their mothers. Many girls grow up 'nowalays with but.‘ the slightest knowledge of housekeep-' ing, and this is not among the wealthy by any means, but among peOple of very ordinary means. Certainly,when1 the entire care of the home must be: relegated to servants, there will m much extravagance and waste, un- less the mistress is well versed in the house-keeping art herself, and can superintend the work. A part of ev- ery girl’s training and education, whe- ther she will do her work with her own hands, or not, should be a thor- ough knowledge of cooking and home- making. It is a miserable egustence to be obliged to do work thh is dis- tasteful, and many girls who marry dislike housework. There is a rou- tine about it which does occasionally become tiresome, even to those who enjoy it, and what must .lt. not be to the one who has not ambition enough to learn and to overcome the dis- like? ‘l‘HE LITTLE DAUGHTER. The mother of a four-year-old (laugh- ter once said she thought she was pur- suing the right course in educating her young daughter in the way of help- fulness. When the little one became tired of play her mother always pro- vided something for her to (loâ€"some trivial duty or errand. When the little girl wanted to help with the work she was not told to run away or that she was a bother. \Vhen the mother l‘ak- ed, the child had some dough, and made cakes and pies to her heart’s content. A smooth hoard was provided and a Chair was used for a table. The little tins cost but a few cents, and gave much pleasure to the child. As she grew older she was taught to cut and sew her doll’s clothes, and in this way, the mother hOped to teaf'h her to hand- le the needle, and in time be able to sew her own clothes. This mother be- lieved in having her children help her, and from the time they were tiny child-l ren there were certain duties given, them to do, and they were always ready and eager to help.
