What men, most bold, would fear to do, A mother‘s heart will carry through ; Love is too strong to think on death, A child is more than living breath. A mother‘s love is fond and wise, Her soul is in her baby‘s eyes; To her the laugh that shakes its throat Is sweeter than the throstle‘s note. Her life is in the child she bears, Nor withers with the waste of years; Though promise may in failure die, "Tis love that makes bher weep and sigh. Her love, indeed, outlives her days, Her children treasure up ber prals®} And though no more they see ber face, Her name retains its native g14teâ€" SUGGESTIONS TO HOUSEKEEPERS Mushrooms have often been styled "vegetable breakfasts‘" because _ of their supposed bigh nutritive value. But despite a recent bulletin from the department of agriculture commendâ€" ing this class of fungi as "highly nutâ€" ritious food," certain foreign investiâ€" gators, notably Morner, of the Univâ€" ersity of Upsala in Sweden, declare them of no great importance in this regard, their chief value being to imâ€" part a piquant relish to other foods, or to tickle the palate when â€" servel alone. A recipe for canning tomatoes whole is given by an exchange and vouched for as excellent by the housekeeper who furnishes it. She says peel the tomatoes without breaking _ them. Sprinkle sugar on them and let them stand a few hours, then cook, very gently and carefully, in their own juice, for about ten minutes. Lift them carefully into the can, fill up with the juice and seal. _ Eat with sugar and vinegar. e Pront ult A housekeeper tells us how she dries string beans for winter use. _ Pick them while tender and string them. Put them into boiling water and let the water boil up again, take them out into cold water and then drain, then dry in the oven. To cook, soak in water over night, drain,, and cook in fresh water, . Season generously with butter and cream. Peas can be dried in the same way. _ Row y * Paraffin wax is growing in favor with housekeepers as a covering for jelly glasses owing to its simplicity, economy and good results, The jelly keeps as soft and fresh at the top of the glass as at the bottom. "The way to darn the stocking knees neatly is to run the first set of strands on the wrong side and cross them on the right, letting the wool come double each way across the cenâ€" ter," writes a housewife. "Then on the wrong side of the stocking run a few strands of single wool from one corner of the darn to another. This does not show, and the whole thing gives better to the pressure of the knee. "A capital way of reducing _ the amount of darning requisite, and esâ€" pecially of postponing the day of darning when the stockings are new, is to save the nice pieces from the backs and insides of one‘s kid and suede gloves and just herringâ€"bone them inside the knees of the stockings. They must be taken out for washing and put back again afterward, and not only do they save a vast amount of mending, but the life of the stockâ€" ing is wonderfully lengthened." I CARE OF BABY‘S EYES. ‘ The eye has wondrous powers of enâ€" : durance if humanely treated and inâ€" | telligently cared for. The cause nine | times out of ten for defective eyesight can be traced either directly or indirâ€" ectly to carelessness or abuse, and ofâ€" The most successful method of getâ€" ting rid of these pests, where nests can be found, is to make several holes in each nest by means of a pointed stick. Pour into each hole an ounce or two of bisulphide of carbon and close with the foot. The bisulphide permeates the underground tunuels and kills the ants in great numbers. If applied with sufficient liberality a whole colony will be exterminated. When the nests cannot be located, the only method is to destroy them wherâ€" ever they occur in the house. Small bits of sponge moistened with sweetâ€" ened water will attract great numâ€" bers. If these are collected several times a day and immersed in hot waâ€" ter the numbers can be greatly reducâ€" ed. It is reported also that a syrup made by dissolving borax and sugarin boiling water will kill the ants readiâ€" ly. The removal of substances which attract the ants in the bouse should always be the first step. + USES FOR GREEN TOMaATOKRS, There are other uses tor green tomâ€" atoes, says a writer in an exchange, than for sweet pickles and chowâ€"chow. She names them as follows: Cooked as you cook ripe tomatoes the green ones are very good. They may be fried with onions and served with beefsteak. Sliced across, rolled in flour and fied on a griddle, like apples or potaâ€" toes, they are appetizing. They make very fair "pieâ€"timber," made up with two crusts, a bit of butâ€" ter, a sprinkle of flour and sugar and spices to taste. They may be canned, green, for pies and to serve as a vegetable, just as ripe tomatoes are canned. ts * 1 HOLES AT THE KNEE. MOTHERHOOD. HOUSE ANTS. TORONTO tentimes both. It is in babyhood and early childbhood in too many instances that the seeds of defective eyesight are sown by careless parents, ignorant of the necessityâ€"and the knowledge reâ€" quisiteâ€"of protecting those deli¢ate orâ€" gans whose tissues are yet tender and undeveloped. It is at this early period that the foundation for future nearâ€" sightedness is laid. Did mothers give as much time and attention to the study of how to protect and aid baby‘s eyesight as they do to studying the fashion books for designs with which to decorate baby‘s garments. there would be less liability of haby‘s wearâ€" ing spectacles later on, as so many of them do. With the present kindergarten sysâ€" tem, children begin their studies at an extraordinarily young Age compared with the commencement period of the past, thus the necessity of double careâ€" fulness should be impressed upon the parent, that the child‘s eyes may be physically in condition to bear the strain about to be imposed upon them. Mothers should remember that all sight is obtained by the reflection of light from luminous bodies upon the retina of the eye, therefore any excesâ€" sively luminous body only dazzies the eye, resulting usually in pain and very frequently causing a positive injury to the structure of the eye. Therefore, the greatest precautions should be takâ€" en that the nursery or living room where the infant is most cpntined should not be too brilliantly lighted ; that the wall paper be of subdued color that will not reflect the rays of light; that the windows be curtained in shades of green and light browns, not in lace and muslin; and that picâ€" tures with broad white mats be removâ€" ed to another room. In fact, any conâ€" spicuously large object that might reâ€" flect brilliant rays of light in baby‘s eyes ought to be placed elsewhere. The windows should ‘be so curtained that whatever the position of the infant the gleaming white sky or snowâ€"covered roof can be completely shaded from view. Also observe care that the glare of the gas, or lamp, or whatever the illuminating mcdium, does not shine in babys eyes. Sudden changes from dark or dusk to the dazzle of daylight or artificial light, should be most asâ€" siduously guarded against, _ When baby is asieep, it is a good plan to either darken the room or shade the eyes much in the same way that the carriage hood does. When baby is in its carriage, or in the garden, or on the promenade, never allow the sun or the white sky to glare in the eyes. Mothers should see to this in particuâ€" lar, and where nurse girls are employâ€" ed, special attention is required until one can rest assured that the girl is trustworthy in this respect as well as all others in connection with the nursâ€" ling‘s care. Tight clothing should never be allowâ€" ed about the neck and when the little one is in a reclining or sitting position care should be observed that rays of light do not reflect from the white gown or cradle coverâ€"lid into the eyes. The angles or reflection vary accordâ€" ing to the position of the light casting the ray réflected. It shoud be rememâ€" bered that reflected light rays are the most dargerous in effect. Further preâ€" cautions will be outlined in another article. Corn Frittersâ€"One pint corn, two eggs, oneâ€"half cup milk, threeâ€"quartâ€" ers cup flour and one teaspoonful bakâ€" ing powder. Sponge Cakeâ€"â€"Two cups of sugar, one cup of warm water, a little salt, four eggs, the yolks beaten separately from the whites, two cups of flour, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Add lemon flavoring and then the whites of eggs last. ANCIENT WOMEN DOCTORS. The first qualified woman physician in Europe, so far as is known, was a young Athenian woman named Agnoâ€" dice. In the year 300 B. C. she disguisâ€" ed berselft as a man and began to atâ€" tand the medical schools at Athens, which it was against the law for a Potato Saladâ€"Slice a quart of cold potatoes, then add salt and pepper to taste, Chop or slice one onion. Put half a cup of vinegar and a teaspoonâ€" ful of butter on the stove to heat. Beat the yolks of two eggs in a cup and fill up with sweet cream. _ Beat well together and stir in the hot vineâ€" gar. Stir constantly till it thickens, but do not let it curdle; remove from the fire. Stir in the onion and pour over the sliced potatoes. Let it stand an hour. Garnish with sliced boiled eggs and cresses. woman to do. She afterward practised among the women of Athens with ertraordinary success. But her secret benme known, she was prosecuted for Audying and practising medicine ilâ€" sagallye. The Athenian women, howâ€" srer, reisad se fvrious an agitation in sons=gaence that the case was dropâ€" ped and the law repealed. Coming to later timaa, we find several women who ebtaise the degtes of doctor of medicine, ard prantised in Europe before 1492, espeolally iz the Moortsh universities of Spain. Trotula, of Rugiero, in the eleventh century had a European reâ€" putation, and practised as a doctor in Salerno. At the beginning of the fourteenth century Dorothea Bocchi not only received the degree of doctor, but was professor of medicine in the famous Universityof Bologria. Since then two other women have been proâ€" fessors of medical subjects in the same university Anna Mangolini (anatomy) and Dr. Maria della lgonno (obstetrio medicine), the latter being appointed in 1799. ‘ In the year 1311 an edict was issued in France forbidding surgeons and female surgeons from practising until they had passed a satisfactory examination before the proper auâ€" thorities. These female surgeons are again referred to in an edict in 1352. THREE GOOD RECIPES. I don‘t see as ‘hmch of Fleshleigh as I used to. Had any trouble with him?

Has your Majesty heard anything more about the partition of China ? inâ€" quired Li Hung Chang. No, answered the Chinese Emperor absentâ€"mindedly. But I guess we may as well sell that historic wall of ours to some building contractor. So far as keeping these foreigners out is concerned, it doesn‘t amount to any more than a lath and plaster partition.

"*May Great Britain and France Never Meet as Enemies." ‘At the close of the military manoeuâ€" vres at Gennetings, near Moulins, France, the President of EFrance enâ€" tertained the Duke of Connaught and other foreign officers at luncheon. The President occupied the central seat a* the table of honour, having the Duke of Connaught on his right and Generâ€" al Jacquemin on his left. M. Faure, in the course otf the proâ€" ceedings, proposed the toast ot the forâ€" eign officers who have been attendâ€" ing the manoeuvres. Turning first to the Duke of Connaught, he said: " Monseigneur, we have been pleased to see your Royal Highness present at the manoeuvres which have just terâ€" minated, and we beg you to be good enough to transmit to Her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain and Empress of India the very cordial wishes of the Royal family." The British and Russian bymns were performed as the toast was honoured : In reply the Duke of Connaught said: "I rise to thank the chief of the State for the kindness which he has shown us. I shall always retain a charming recollection of the stay which I made in France on the occaston of the 1898 manoeuvres. Allow me to say, M. le President, that Great Britain likes the French army. I say this as an ofâ€" ficer of the Rritish army, as a member of the Royal family, and as a member of the army which accompanied France in several campaigns. I trust our arâ€" mies will never meet as enemies, and that comradeship will always exist beâ€" tween us. In the name of the foreign officers, permit me to express our graâ€" titude for the kindness which you have shown usâ€"a kindness which will form their most agreeable recollection on their return home." The most wonderful of buzzsaws has just been devised by M. Felix Fromâ€"| holt, an engineer of Paris, for use in preparing the stona foundations for the Exhibition buildings. It is more than ‘ seven feet in diameter and is operâ€" ated by a tenâ€"horse power engine. The lower edge is nearly four feet above ; the ground. The block of stone which ‘ is to be sawed is placed on a truck and ‘ run under the saw, which splits it at | the rate of ten inches per minute. And’. no wonder. It is literally a diamondâ€" toothed saw, the largest in existence.! It cuts its way through the hardest | stone by the aid of 200 small diaâ€" monds, fastened to its circumference. These are the soâ€"call crystalized diaâ€" monds, worth about $2 or $3 per carâ€" at. Of course the principle of the cutâ€" ingâ€"diamond is old. M. Fromholt claims credit only for his ingenious method of fastening the diamonds to the steel and for experimenting with them at high temperatures.
