A good sized sponge is nice for cleans ing paint and washing windows. A larj;e, soft sconce, either drv or dampened makes a good duster. A paste made of eoual parts of lard and puwdered chalk will cure corns. Nitre is excellent for a cold, especially a feverish one. Use ten drops to a lea- spoonful, according to age, once in four hours. G: M. Carter. Chester. S. C... writes- "A negro boy here had a bad case of scroiuia. 1 he doctor said it would kill him.

Boston Hudget Chocolate caramels are great favor ites; and although the word caramel really means burnt sugar, it is often applied where this ingredient is entire ly lacking. To make this candy at its be.st, one cup of sugar and half a cup of butter are creamed well together as if for cake, adding by degrees a cup of molasses and one of cream, if it is to be had if not, milk will make an inferior substitute, l'ut all these ingredients in a saucepan and let them boil fast When nearly done, which will be in about half an hour, add a cup of grated chocolate and stir well. Drop a little of the caramel into cold water and have ready buttered pans into which it may be poured an inch thick. Mark into squares when cool with the back of a warm knife. Harper's liazar. THE CHARM OF COURTESY. Wlegcil YlVll.brrcl Kexerre The Woman YVIit l:ires tr Ite Affable. If women could ever learn that it is quite possible to combine affability with dignity in commonplace, daily in tercourse with their fellow creatures, ihis would be a far brighter and more 1,'reeable world. Xine-tenths of the gentlewomen one knows would no more address an tinint reduced female than bite otf a bit of their own tongues. Xot once in a blue moon do they dare con verse with their servants, the clerk be hind the counter, the chance companion of a railway journey, or even the lady who has dropped in to call on a mutual friend. Awkwardness and timidity, with a sense of alleged well-bred reserve, seal their lips to every form of communica tion. I u their shyness and stupid fear of furnishing an opportunity for undue familiarity they go through life like oysters, as far as those outside their narrow circle are concerned. l!ut, thank heaven, there is a woman, and her trilie is increasing, who realizes all of the beautiful opportunities and rights the gift of speech gives her. She can afford to talk to her domestics about any nnd everything, and cement their affectionate respect with every word uttered. tier kindly recognition of the shop girl and fr.igment of pleasant gossip across thj yardstick is a wholesome break in a clerk's dull day. To sit tie side a respectable female for an hour's train travel, and not exchange greet ings as two human beings touching in their journey of life, would confound her kindly nature. "She is sure of her dignity, nnd. strong in its integrity, af fords to do what a less fine-grained na ture shrWks to essay. Her friendly, well-chosen words are as far removed from volubility as her cordial manners are from gush. Reeogniz:ng the power of speech as the most potent of spells for removing dull, unlovely discontent embarrass ment and loneliness, she is free with worthy thoughts graciously expressed It is noticeable that su -h women never leave drawing-room, kitchen, shop or coach that every other creature of her kind present doc not acknowledge to herself the supreme excellence of courtesy above all other feminine charms.
