Then fill the space with plas- ter of Paris and press the screw in the bolt plaster. When it hardens the screw will be found to hold firmly.

I do not know of any home in which the spirit of unrest and discontent is so manifest as in the home of one of my acquaintances who is regarded as a "beautiful housekeeper," says a writ- er. There is about her house that spotlessness, that immaculaieness, that absolute orderliness, that only un- ceasing care and watchfulness can give to a. house and particularly to a. house in which there are little children. It is in that home as it the chief end and aim of existence was the main- taining of perfect order. An undust- ed mantel. a corner of a rug turned up, a book out of place, a tiny soiled spun on the tablecioth-these fret and vex the soul of that housekeeper more than the defects in the characters of her children. She is ever on guard to we that her husband and children do not track dust or mud into the house, and from June until November she fights flies with a degree of fidelity and persistency worthy of a better cause. She is sacrificing her entire time and thought and strength to material things. She is a housekeep- er, but not a home keeper. She is con- stantiy tyrannized by trifles and she knows nothing of the true art of liv- ing. Her children will not be sorry to go from the home she is wearing her life away to keep spotless for them, and they will remember her constant fretfulness and almost nagging ad- munitions tn De oruerly longer than they will remember her labors in be- half of an immaculate house. 1 know another home, and more than one such home, in which the wife and mother is s humekeeper as well as a housekeeper. in this home the mother is too wise to think that the founda- tion of true home lite depends upon absolute order and immaculate clean- liness in the house. Sometimes the corners of rugs are turned up, some- times it would be possible to find dust on the mantel, sometimes books and papers are not in their appointed place, sometimes the tablecloth has a spot on it, sometimes the husband and the children "track in" dust and dirt, sometimes a fly is permitted to lyy.a undisturbed in the parlor itself. This liomekeeper witnesses these things without once losing her serenity and self-poise. There is no all-prevailing and distracting disorder in her house and real dirt has no place in it. But this wise homekeeper knows how to eliminate unnecessary burdens from her busy life. She recognizes the (not that home comfort is not always allied with the highest degree of order, and that something besides order ts need- ed to make home really and truly bane tortho spirit. - 7 There are homes that are being dese- crated by the felich of order. There are so-called "beautiful housekeepers" who know nothing and whose families, alas! know nothing of the surpassing joy and peace and beauty ot homekeep- my. INVENTORY HOOKS. An "inventory book" is the latest convenience for the housekeeper. This is a printed list, with columns tor date of entry, value and description. It is systematically arranged and makes the list complete in case of fire, theft or death. It is next to impossible to remember all that was in a. room bo. tore 1 fire, and the insurance compan- ies always require a sworn list before settling. This housekeeper’a inven- tory will settle the matter quickly. THE EACH ELOR'S COMPLAINT. A HINT IN HOUSECLEANING Articles likely to be found in any GLOSS STANCE room of the house are arranged in alphabetical order, with the name and location ot the room heading the page. Two pages are given over to each room beginning with albums, andirons, brackets, bric-a-brac, book shelves, bureaus, bedsteads, etc., and running through to wardrobe: and window seats. Special lists are also arranged for bric-a-brac, books, clothing, jewel- ry, ornaments, paintings, pictures, silverware, dishes, ehinaware, glass- ware, kitchen utensils, bedding and linen, while a miscellaneous list and recapitulation of the value of the whole finishes the book. .

Every room in the house has its place in the book-chambers, parlors. reception hall, other balls, dining room, library, kitchen and pantrios, laundry and cellar, attic or store room and even the closets.

The lllumluallon of [In Fun-re “III Be “lino-u Meat. It has been the dream of scientists to Invent alight that shall produce a maximum of illumination with little or no heat. What nature can do man can do, has bean their maxim, and though they have been baffled again and again in carrying this theory into practice, yet substantial progress has been made, especially toward the close of this century. To understand the necessity of an in- vention that shall gives a light with- out heat it need only be said that of the ordinary gas jet 98 per cent is heat and only 2 per cent light. Though electricity was a great discovery and a distinct advancement, yet of 100 units of energy in an electric current only six comes out as light. The light of the firefly is estimated to be 100 per cent light. But so far the wonderful little insect is a puz- zling mystery to scientists, and the sec- ret of its light has not yet been found. It has proved as elusive to electricians and scientists as the will-o'-the-wisp to ord;nary mortals. For the glow of the tire-fly, like a flight in the sky- lurk, though a simple object lesson in natural philosophy, has simply battled scientists. lt has been demonstrated to the world beyond all dispute that light of ad kinds is really electrical phenomena and differs from ordinary alternating current waves only in the rate of vibra- tion. This explains why signals can be transmAted without wire by waves of high frequency and how a wireless telegraph system is possible. in or- dinary sunlight every sensation that the eye experiences is the effect of coo trillion of waves every second upon the ether above Us. by virtue of the. mole- cular of electric energy of the sun. The principal line of investigation has been with vacuum tubes. Many excellent results have been obtained. An ordinary room has been illuminated with one form of illuminant that gave a splendid lighted rtrm without so much as the source of. the light being apparent. Other lights have been de.. One scientist has practically perfect- ed a lamp that will give. a soft and brilliant light, with a bluish tinge, and in which theme will be no heat, no con- nection with deadly wires, and no wire filament, as is now used in the ordinary incandescent light. This is really the nearest approach to the natural light such as the fire-fly gives us. It is quite within reason that in the early part of the next century some new form of lighting will be discovered which will completely revolutionize all cxisting methods of illumination. vUed, but they are at present not cum- mercial m1ccetbset'.

The cost of construction is emanated at not less than 4,000,000 roubles. During Edward 111.'s reign all brew- ers and bakers were women, and when men first began to engage in the occu- patrons it was thouguc so suauge that they were called .. men brewers Ft and "men bakers." According to the views of those ad- vocating the system a striking proof of the necessity for old-age pensions is afforded in the case of a Liuc,ulnshire farm labourer. He worked faithfully for a rich employer, a churchmen, up- wards of thirty years at a rate never more than fifteen awnings a week. In his old age he was turned off as no longer equal to the work, and he is now with his family homeless.
