A bonny hame where heather bells Still blushing tempt the bees to roam. And now it is where Lillian dwells, For‘where the heart isâ€"there is SOAP MAKING. \Ve will suppose that the fat has all been carefully tried out and strained, and this should be done as the grease accumulates, never allowing it to be- come tainted. If you will save your great convenience to strain your grease into, as two of them will hold five pounds, just enough to use with one box of potash- For the two tomato cans of grease. or five pounds in cakes, you will need one box of any first-class potash. Put into your pan or kettle eight quarts of luke warm water, your cans or cakes u; LUIS!) warm water, your cans or cakes of grease; take the top off the potash can and put in can and contents, plac- ing your kettle where it will heat gradually. When the grease is melt- ed and the potash dissolved, take out the cans and let the water come to a b011, stirring occasionally. After it has boiled away a little, put in two more quarts of water. It will need to bell slowly for two or three hours be- fore it will be soap. When it begins to look soapy throw in two tablespoons- ful of salt, and boil till smooth again. as the salt may cause the soap and water to separate at first. If your kettle gets too hot by any chance and is likely to run over, throw in a little cold water and set in a cooler place. When you think it is done, take out a little in a saucer, and try it, like jelly, I by cooling it, If it separates, put it back, and dip out some more and try putting a little cold water in it, stir- ring it. If that thickens it, you willl know that more water is needed, and‘ you can put in a quart of cold water; stir it well and try some again; if it hardens when cool it is all right. A little experience will soon enable you to tell just what it needs. If you do not have water enough for the pro- portion of potash, it will separate eve after it has boiled sufficiently. If it ldoes not separate nor harden on be- ing cooled there is too much water, and you must boil it down more. \Vhen it is just right pour it out in a vessel to cool. A square wooden box, divid- ed into sections, the size for bars, is very convenient. It should be deep enough to make thick bars, as the soap will dry away greatly. When you put the soap away see that you have it in a light, airy place, or it will turn dark. It will preserve its shape better if you do not pile it up while it is soft. Five pounds of grease Wlll make fourteen large bars of soap, and will not cost you a cent a bar, and you will have the satisfaction of know- ing that it is pure and of excellent cleansing properties. ,/ USES FOR BORAX. No housekeeper can afford to be without a box of powdered borax in the kitchen. for there is probably no other article that can be used in so many ways. It “breaks" hard water, making it as nice for washing as rain water, and does not injure the clothes like lye or sal-soda. A little added to the water in which muslins and ginghams are washed cleanses them without fading the most delicate colors. When you are going to make starch, put a teaSpoonful of powdered borax in two tablespoonsful of dry starch, and prepare as usual. The clothes will have a beautiful gloss, and will be easy to iron. Borax added to the water in which blankets. flannels or other wool: " ”HUI-I Uhtbu‘nv vâ€"I- â€"â€"â€"â€" -â€" len goods are washed makes the work easier and keeps them from shrink- ing. It is also good for washing floor and table oil-cloth, leaving the colors as bright; as when new. .THE DURHAM CHRONICLE Tatty.â€"Three cups sugar, 1 cup vinegar, butter size of a walnut, 1-2 teaspoon vanilla.

A dainty accessory, considered indis- pensable to her drawing-room by the mistress of a well-appointed house, is the piano shield. More than any other object present in this room it is really decorative art, for it unites beauty and utility, and may be a mute revelation of the most graceful taste. It is a cover fitted to the keyboard. made of silk or satin, embroidered with a design suitable to the instrument or consonant with the general scheme of the ornament and color of the apart- ment. Where a floral design is treat- ed, naturally, honeysuckles and trum- pet flowers are both considered “mm! sical;" or, for beauty alone, the pome-‘ granate, which is the time-honored emblem of luxury and state. The shape, it being from five inches wide to forty in length, lends itself ad- mirably to a background for making a musical quotation, such as “I would that my love would silently flow in a single word”â€"-using the notes from Handel’s largo or the andante from the “Fifth Symphony"â€"for. of course, all or any musical quotation indiffer- ently would not be apposite. The phrase must be classical. melodious and restful. For in this, as in a literary quotation, atheme might be inoppor- tune unless chosen with taste and fore- sight. Embroidery or painting is used to decorate the keyboard cover. While for its finishing there is only one rule, the shield must be wadded, lined with soft silk, edged with a silk cordâ€"not a me- tallic oneâ€"and perfumed or not as the chatelaine pleases. But even to those who object to scent, lavendar flowers or orris root, with its suggestion of wood violets, cannot be otherwise than pleasant. It will give more satisfacâ€" tion than nine out of ninety drawing- room adornments. ATTEND TO TRIVIAL MATTERS. Small daily ever-recurring waste, how- ever trivial, soon mounts up, until it would take pounds to replace. The daily and regular supervision of the domestic machinery not only serves to bring these matters to light, and thus end them, but also to keep the home and family more orderly.

Some politicians, like corkscrews. am more or less crooked. but they have a. strong pull. More than a fair profit is realized on the articles sold at a church fair. A lover, it is only just to suppose. has many privileges. Perhaps he does not always avail himself of them as much as he might, or as his sweetheart would like; but, the privileges exist all the same. A lover has the privilege of visiting constantly at a girl’s house. In a mere ordinary acquaintance it would be looked upon as singular, or an act of intrusion, for him to appear with a regularity and frequency which may seem sometimes tedious to the other members of the family; but if he is known to be a lover of one of the girls. everything is understood and con- doned. . He has a certain claim upon her time and attention. Even the girl who is most persistently bent upon discouraging him cannot refuse to grant him the chance of trying to make her like him. It is only fair to recog- nize the fact that, after all. little as she may wish it, he is offering her the very highest honor a. man has in his power to offer a woman, and she owes him in return courtesy and hear- ing. He has the privilege of supplying her with her favorite flowers, of bringâ€" ing her music and books. of paying her a thousand little attentions which he would never dare to venture upon were his intentions not definitely set- tled. He is no longer afraid of being misconstrued. as he was in the early days of his passion, when he was not quite sure whether this fancy was go- ing to be more lasting than the hun- dred and fifty fancies that had gone before it, and whether he really meant business this time or only amuse- ment. uv-vv But, after all, the privileges of a lover are so far inferior to those of an engaged man that he is indeed tool- ish who would be content with the one when he might possess the other, As well put up with the blossom when you might have the fruit; as well be satisfied with twilight when one might enjoy the sun at noonday; as well stop 'A LOVER’S PRIVILEGE.
