Place the worked linen so that the silk 
puff comes up in the center. 
A pretty design for those who crochet 
but do not embroider, is made of wheels 
crocheted from whipcord twist. It is 
not necessary to give directions, as any 
of the pretty wheels so much used for 
scarf ends and tidies will be suitable. 
Sew the wheels together so as to form a 
square of the desired size, and line with 
silk. One recently seen was crocheted 
of nile-green twist, and placed over pale 
green silk. The edges were fini.shed 
with a narrow crocheted edge of the 
twist. A plush ball placed in the center 
of each wheel will give added beaiity to 
the creation. 
These are but hints, for a score of other 
materials lend themselves readily to this 
use. INKZ UKDDIXG. 
DO YOUR WORK HEARTILY. 
MAN is relieved and gay w'hen he 
has put his heart into his work 
and done his best; biit what he has done 
or said otherwise, shall give him no 
peace.” So wrote the Sage of Concord. 
Who of us has not proved the truth of 
his words ! Do we shrink from our work? 
Do we deem it unimportant, and there¬ 
fore worthy to be only slightingly per¬ 
formed ? What a mistake we make ! 
What wormwood in it all, as we drag 
through the allotted ta.sk ; and is the re¬ 
sult likely to be much more gratifying 
than our late, enforced toil ? 
A little girl, whose bugbear was wash¬ 
ing dishes, one evening surprised her 
mother and the family circle, generally, 
by joining them, book in hand, much 
earlier than was her wont. In reply to 
a question concerning the supper dishes, 
she burst forth impetuoiisly with, “Oh, 
mamma ! 1 just put my liedrt in it, and I 
want you to go out and look in the cup¬ 
board, and see if my dishes don’t shine !” 
So it is in all things, great and small. 
If we put into our work the spirit that 
made the little girl’s di.shes shine, we 
need not fear for the result, or for the 
peace and calm of our souls while we 
are laboring. ei.eanok hoot. 
FOR THE BABY. 
ERIIAPS the “ ci’awling rug” is new 
to some of our readers. A blanket 
or some other material for foundation is 
needed. A writer in Harper’s Hazar 
thus describes the making : 
“ Usually the word “Daby” appears in 
the center in large letters, and all around 
it and about it are animals of various 
sizes, either cut out and appliqu6d, or 
embroidered in bright wools. Here may 
be learned the first lesson in natural his¬ 
tory. In London, one may buy the 
animals for the.se rugs already cut out in 
kid, cloth, Astrakhan cloth, or anything 
that most resembles the texture of their 
skin. Hut any one with a little ingenu¬ 
ity, a pair of scissors applied with dex¬ 
terity to an old mufl!, the tops of kid 
gloves, a discarded beaver hat, and bits 
of Canton fiannel, can produce a most in¬ 
teresting array of animals and a Noah’s 
ark in full fioat somewhere in the dis¬ 
tance. Hirch bark makes an excellent 
basis for an ark. Hutton-hole the edges 
in wools of various colors, and keep the 
whole as neat at the back as possible if 
the rug be not lined. If monster beasts 
are placed upon the rug, like those sup¬ 
posed to wander in the jungles, beads

Some of our club raisers get that

may be introduced with great effect. It 
diverts baby by the hour to try to pull 
the simulated scales from ‘ the foamy 
dragon’s flashing tail,’ or pick out the 
eye of the fierce tiger.”

Scott’s Emulsion has been endorsed by physicians of the 
whole world. There is no secret about its ingredients. 
Physicians prescribe 
Scott’s Emulsion 
because they know what great nourishing and curative prop¬ 
erties it contains. They know it is what it is represented 
to be ; namely, a perfect emulsion of the best Norway Cod- 
liver Oil Avith the hypophosphites of lime and soda. 
For Goughs, Golds, Sore Throat, Bronchitis, Weak Lungs, Gonsump-

men and women comprehend their moral 
duties, and act accordingly, that Man 
and Woman will be human beings, not 
the one a despot and the other a slave. 
Hut befoi'e that, many ‘ old cus¬ 
toms ’ will liave to die out. To-day, 
much is regarded as sacred that is really 
immoral.” 
ODDS AND ENDS. 
Petroleum for Washing. — Wa.shing 
with kerosene has been much advocated 
in our columns lately. The Literary 
Digest gives the following additional 
testimony in favor of the process : “ The 
system of wa.shing linen with petroleum, 
said to be customary in parts of Russia, 
has been introduced into a Herman 
military hospital. Fifteen grams of 
petroleum are added to 15 liters of water 
containing soap and lye, and the linen is 
boiled in the mixture. The cleansing is 
much easier than by the usual method, 
the linen suffers less, and assumes a 
whiter color. Finally, the expense is 
deci'eased, thanks to the economy in 
soap. Encouraged by these results, the 
officer at the head of’ the general staff of 
the army, has ordered trials to be made 
of the plan in all the military hospitals 
in Germany.” 
Women as Police Officers. —Another 
encroachment of woman upon the do¬ 
main of man is reported in Herlin. Reg¬ 
ular female officers are upon the police 
force in that city. They have been 
found especially useful in shutting up 
houses of ill-fame. It is not stated 
whether they are as handy with the club 
as some of our American specimens. Hut 
it isn’t likely that women will at once 
aspire to all the honors of the position.
