“She Looketh Well

to the ways of her household.” Yes, Solomon is right; that’s what the good housekeeper everywe_re does, but particularly in Can- ada.

But her ways are not always old ways. In fact she has dis- carded many unsatisfactory old ways. For instance, to-day she is using

the New Shortening, instead of lard. And this is in itself a rea- 60n why ‘‘she looketh well” in another sense, for she eats no lard to cause poor digestion and a worse complexion. CorTrroLrNnE is much better than lard for all cooking pur- poses, as every one who has tried it declares. Have you tried it?

A WARPED MORALITY 18 THE RE-

SULT OF LAXITY.

Carelessness in Paying What One Owes Very Often Causes Ineonvenience, Eim- barrassment and Even Misery—Avoil Debt as You Would Disgrace.

Few women, let us hope, are intention- ally dishonest. The majority of women

| are fastidious in the conduct of their finan- | Ces, shrinking from debt as from disgrace, | and preferring to pay fully and honorably

as they zo. Yet, now and then one hears & wail of complaint from people who sat- fer necclessly because of the heedless man-

| her in which other people keep them wait- | ing for money which they have earned. A | dressmaker said, recently, to one of her | patrons: ‘Il am nearly frantic when I think

how hard I worked and how late [ sat up to finisiis Miss ——’'s yradaation gown, and now I am afraid I will never be paid. I have waited six months for that bill, and I cannot get one cent, though I have almost begyed for it, even offering to take it in in- stalinents. J am distressed in these hard times, when everybody is retrenching, be- cause psople do not have so many new

things, and others who have had them put |

off paying me.”

On her way home the sympathetic cus- tomer thought about it, happening to know that there were no indications of waut or strained means in the family of the delinquent debtor, inferring that the thing was due to an ingrained inc ifference to paying for work when done. Probably there was at first a temporary incenveni- ence in settling the bill, and it was post- poned for a day or two, and then the period lengthengd insensibly, other credi- tors brought their bills, large amonnts

waited and wondered, aud grew trantic with worry, poor thing?

To defer even for one day the paying of the laundress who has acceptably finished her day’s work in your kitchea is, it may be, to foree her to ask credit. gradgingly given to such as she, at the grocer’s shop where she deals, or else to send her chil- dreu meagerly fed to their bede. People who have a comfortable balance in bank do not comprehend the strained circum- stances of the people who live from hand to mouth,

Coal-bins filed to the overflow are a different thing from eva) purchased in the dearest way, by the pailful at atime, yet thousands of poor women can buy their coal only in very small quantities or go Think of being calmly told to wait till to-morrow for oue’s wages, when neither stick of wood nor ounce of coal was on hand for the family fire!

Apart from the inconvenience, embar- rassment, ad misery eutailed by laxity in payiag what one owes, especially when and the debts are small, there is evident a serious lack of principle in persons who can comfort- abiy contiune in devt.

Auy lapse ia the rigid honor which in- sists on meeting each demand and paying it in full at the moment of its maturity in volves a loss of self-respect, and brings in its train a warped morality.

There are few things more important in the education of children than the foster- ing in them the right estimate of personal obligation. The child should be enjoined against borrowing and begying in his sinail transactions, Let him be held to strict account and responsidility as to his min- agement of his allowance. Fidelity here will tell in years to come, when his deal- ings are no longer small, but affect great commercial interests.—Harper’s Bazar.

The Patent Medicine tiabit,

“The cologne habit is rather common, especially among women, the Jamaica ginger habit is heard from occasionally, and cases of even the vinegar habit are re- ported once in a awhile. But I can teil you of one that is more absurd, and yet much more common.” The speaker was a Baffalo drugyist.

‘What is it?”

‘It’s the patent medicine habit. Men have it» little oftener than woman, and one rarely recovers from it, so far as my observation goes. Try one kind of patent medicine and that’s all mght. Try another kind and maybe that’s all right. Try a third and you're a goner. In all my ex- perience of many years I never knew of s person who had tried three different pateut remedies, one right after the other, who had not by that time become a con- firmed patent medicine fiend, given to reading bewspaper advertisements in search of new remedies and diseases to fit them. In time the habit wipes ont its victim, same as morphine or drink would. It is a fact, though—I speak as a friend and not as a druggist—that a few of the patent medicines really contain valuable ingredients and effect wonderful cures. They are carefully prepared on a scientific basis, but most of them are frauds, con- taining cheap, harmless, useless drugs, aud sold at high prices, But people insist

a

| on buying them, and we have to self | them,

What is more, some insist en be- ing cured by them, whereas they wouldn't be helped a bit if they knew what the medicine was made of, That's patent faith cure.” —Buffalo Express.

ONE OF THE LOST TRIBES.

Hebrew and Hawaiian Burial Customs Correspond Exactly.

The manner of disposing of the dead in the Hawaiian Islands is also in accord with the Hebrew custom. The body was em- talmed and covered with a glutinous sub- stance or wash, to seal effectually the pores of the skin and exclude sil air. The body was then deposited in the side

| Of a precipice, The practice of im- molating one or more wives of a chief was carried ou to a considerable extent ih the Hawaiian group in earlier days. As a mani | festation of love and attachment, the wives ot a chief would voluntarily die, which act was called moe-pu, companionship in sleep. This practice can be trace] to the Vedic Hindoos, the only difference being th» the

institutions, called cities of refuge, or Pun- honua, which were found to have obtained prominence among the Hawaiians, a: d which have been quoted as another instance of Hebrew influence upon the custom and cultute of the isl) rders, The cities of re fuge, however, wero not peculiar to the Hebrews. They ...s:6ed in the time of an cient Greece. We read of the temple of Ceres, at Hermione, in Argotis, which war a similar institution, and there were num erous others, both there and elsewhere, where the Cashite influence had molifie: the customs and molded the curts of the people on its own pattern.

Besides the traditions ef the Hawaiians, their practice of incautation and divination. and inauy peculiarties of their languay show a relation not only with the Hebrews, but also with the fire-worsbippers ot Persia, the Brahmins ard Buddhists of India, and other branches of the Ayran race.—-Abraham Fornander, in April Lip pincott’s.

Home of the Ostrich,

Southern Africa contains a sufficient number of large ostrich farms to keep the whole world supplied with feathers. Tix ostrich farming commeneed in California has not proven a success thus far. Cape Town, Africa, is the largest depot in the world for ostrich feathers. Many large houses in England are represented there by agents who ship these goods to London, Where they are sold at auction every two months tu buyers from all countries, No imitation of the ostrich featier has ever been found, thongh years ayo dealers u .- successiully experimented with the plam age of the vuiture for this purpose. Tie Egyptian feathers are the most valuable, costing sometimes four hundred dollars a peuad, tut sucn feathers last a lifetime, aud will stand any amount of curliny, clea. ing and dyeing. The plumes are classeu under tie names ot wild, tame, male, female, white, black, drab and byacks. They are cut from the quill stubs, which the birds shed afterward, and tied in bunches of from eight to fifty feathers, ti taii feathers predominating. ‘The wiiu birds are rare, and the feathers very fiic aud the flue of a high lusire, Byacks ar of mixed shades, and the male plumaz+ surpasses the female. The value of a feather becomes lesser or greater after cleaning it with white Castile soap, accord ing to the quality of the flues.
