CLIPPINGS FROM BOOKS.
CLIPPINGS FROM BOOKS. WORTH NOTING A certain business man noticed in the pro* gress of years that each successive book- keeper gradually lost his health and finally died of consumption, however vigorous or robust lie was on entering his service. At length it occurred to him that the little rear room where the hooks were kept faced a back yards so surrounded by high walls that no sunshine came into it from one year's end to another. An upper room, well lighted, was immediately prepared, and his clerks had uniform good health ever after. A familiar case to general readers is derived from medical works. An entire family became ill; and all remedies seemed to fail of their usual results, when accidentally a window glass of the family room was broken in cold weather. It was not repaired, and forthwith there was a marked improvement in the health of the inmates. The physician at once traced the connection, discontinued his medicines, and ordered that the window pane should not be replaced. The lungs of a dog become tuberculated (consumptive) in a few weeks if lie is kept confined in a dark cellar. The most common plant grows spindly, pale and straggling if no sunlight falls upon it. From these facts we cannot but conclude that apartments into which the sun does not immediately shine should never be occupied as family rooms or as libraries or studies. PARTLY TRUE. The Oriental races are not without a sense of humour, which is often of a grim sort. A traveller who was visiting the Court of the Imam of Muscat not long since relates the fol- lowing. I had heard that no ruler of Muscat for the last hundred years had died a natural death, and was interested when in our con-I versation the Imam himself introduced the matter of this extraordinary fatality among the sovereigns of his country. "I Is it true,' I ventured to ask, 'that no Imam for one hundred years has died in his bed ?' I Cert,-tijilv- not,' said he, with a perfectly grave face. Let me see-four of them have died in bed.' And they were not assassinated, then ?' lvell,' lie said, I it is true that they were found under the mattress instead of on top of it; but they unquestionably died in bed.' "They had been smothered by their suc- cessors." FROM THEIR OWN VIEW-POINT. Men of marked ability rarely value their highest achievements at their full worth. One of the great railway magnates of this country takes a keen pride in his ability to sing a comic song, and is most happy when lie is asked to take a leading part in a concert. Charles Reade, it is said, valued his noveli but lightly. His chief achievement in his own opinion was a method lie had discovered of keeping newspaper clippings in order. Dickens was prouder of making a certain fish sauce than of writing David Copperfield." Thackeray, Dumas, and Balzac were extremely vain of their skill as impromptu cooks, while they regarded their books as incomplete efforts compared with what they wished to do. Benjamin Robert Haydon, the artist, had & wonderful faculty for painting portraits; yet he neglected that lucrative branch of his art, despite his lack of means, and persisted in covering huge canvases with historical pic- tures which were of little value. In short, very few men of great power in a certain direction come to recognise their own success, but are often childishly pleased with some petty exercise of a trivial talent. SHE STARTLED THE BARBER. A story is going the rounds concerning "Tom, the barber," whose dexterity with the razor is a household word in Bombay. A lady, just arrived from England, drove to the hotel of Bombay which had been recom- mended her, and was given a spacious bed- room, which she was told had just been vacated by a military officer who had gone up-country She was very tired and very sleepy, and after dinner she returned at once to rest, with an instruction that she was not to be disturbed in the morning. Imagine her surprise when, shortly after sunrise, she awoke to find half of her face covered with lather and a ferocious-looking native holding a razor in close proximity to her throat. She shrieked aloud, and II Tom, the barber," for it was he, fled. When the alarm subsided, it transpired that Tom had a contract to shave the departed officer at a certain time every morning, asleep or awake, and that he was unaware of the fact that the bedroom had changed hands. Tom makes it his boast that he can shave a man without arousing him from slumber. GRACEFUL. The late Dr. Cruveilhier, of Paris, was' a mart of unbounded liberality. One day he heard that a poor young woman, whose husband was a clerk in the War Office, had been taken seriously ill. He went to see her, attended her for a month, and finally brought her round. At the end of this period he perceived that the husband wished to ask him for his account, and for time to pay it in. He did not like to hurt the young man's feelings, and, noticing an Algerian carpet in the room, worth about fifteen francs, he exclaimed: What a lovely piece of carpet you have got there!" "Ah! doctor," said the husband, If If you think you would like to have it "I should indeed, very much like to have it. Look here, we will make a bargain. You owe me two hundred francs for my visits, Your carpet is worth three hundred". Here are a hundred francs, and I'll take it with me." I And lie left, glad to have done the poor' people a kindness without wounding their pritle.1

THE HOUSEHOLD.I
THE HOUSEHOLD. I THE FAILINGS OF SERVANTS. Servants are a never-ending theme to the woman who allows herself to talk on it. It is a theme which so closely concerns the happi- ness of the family that one cannot blame the housewife for speaking of that which is often uppermost in her mind. The audacity with which incompetent girls seek employment in well-regulated families, and then proceed to uiidermihe the orderly system of the mis- tresses, is indeed appalling to the housekeeper, Tales of the incompetent or wicked servant must fill volumes in the recording angel e domains, and still there are more to follow, unless women cease to make this uninteresting subject an all-sorbing one. The bright woman, however, finds plenty to talk about besides aches and pains, servants, and the weather, and that is why we love to to see her cheerful face coming into our homes. She does not come with secrets which she is ready to disclose on the slightest provocation, nor does she have choice bits of gossip to retail among her neighbours. She is simply brimful ef love and good feeling towards everyone, and it shows in every word she utters—even commonplace remarks. This kind of woman is alive to the good things going on in the world, and she takes a pleasure in speaking of them. If there is a bad side to the story she carefully ignores it, and speaks only of the good. The mfltienW .f such a woman is unbounded. BRAWN, if home-made, from a good recipe, is always popular. Those who do not cure their own bacon can [usually procure the necessary meat from a pork butcher. Take half a pig's head, and one or two pigs' tongues. The brains and all veins and splinters of bones should have been removed from the head previous to salt- ing. Put the head and tongues into a sauce- pan of cold water to boil, then let it simmer slowly for three or four hours, or until the bones slip from the meat. Cut all the meat into neat pieces, season with allspice, black pepper and a little mace, press into a mould, put a heavy weight on it, and stand till cold. The bones and broth of the brawn may be simmered with the usual soup vegetables and a little brown sugar for stock. DRESS SMALL CHILDREN in flannel garments, especially at night, and to those who have to make new sleeping suits for their children I would suggest that they use combination garments instead of night- gowns, The object of this is that the little Sleeper is always properly covered. ANTIMICASSARS CF DIFFERENT COLOURS. Buy double Berlin wool in five different shades of crimson and stone colour, and work in snowflake or crazy stitch, using a different filiate for each row, beginning at the darkest, [and wfien the lightest is used going back to tJî darkest again. Work a crimson stripe, tb'èn a stone-coloured one. This makes a very handsome antimacassar. Finish the ends with a kiiotted fringe. CLEANING BLACK LACES. To wash black Inces dissolve half a table- spoonful of bcrax in a small cupful of luke- warm water and add one tablespoonful of spirits of wine. Soak the lace in this liquid, rinsing it in and out and pressing it with the hands to extract the dirt. Then rinse it in a tumbler of hot water in which a black kid glove has been boiled. Pull the lace out evenly with the fingers and lay it smoothly between newspapers. Place a weight upon it and let it remain until perfectly dry. Old Black thread or French laces that need renovating are much improved by being dipped into a solution of weak green tea and then spread out upon several thcknesses of newspaper laid upon a flat surface. With a pin pick out each little point or scallop; then cover the lace with thin sheets of newspaper and put a weight upon the paper, letting it remain twenty-four hours. REMOVING MARKING INK FROM LINEN. A Jsomewhat concentrated solution of the cyanide of potassium of Liebig, free from sulphate of potassa, to prevent a combination with sulphur during the calcination, is requisite. This done, characters formed on linen by marking ink may be easily obliterated. They are to be gently rubbed wit!, the solution and they will vanish, leaving the fabric of the Cloth uninjured. If common writing ink has been used with the marking ink, a hot, concen- trated solution of oxalic acid will be necessary, ASTHMA. Asthma may be popularly described as a tendency to sudden fits of difficulty in breath- ing. The patient gasps for breath, and seems neither able to fill his lungs nor empty them; he struggles and labour almost in vain; his face first becomes red with exertion, and then pittle or livid, whilst heads of perspiration start from his brow, his nostrils dilate like ttypSe of a swiftly-running horse, as though fraction of inlet for the air was to be despised. Of all human torture, nothing is so terrible as the fight for breath, and few sight are more distressing than that of a person in the throes of an. asthmatic paroxysm, more especially when the sufferer is one who is near and dear to us. After the distress described in the last para- graph has lasted a longer or a shorter time, relief comes, in some cases suddenly, as though a terrible obstacle had been snatched away, and in other cases gradually, the difficulty seeming to melt away by degrees. Most people have had some acquaintance with asthma, either in that they have some friend or relative afflicted in this way, or that they themselves have the misfortune to have even a closer acquaintance than that; and it comes as a great surprise to most persons when they learn that asthma is a nervous disease, and that there is, as a rule, no narrowing of the windpipe or other physical deformity, excepting a temporary one produced by the action of the nerves or muscles. A person who suffers from asthma is one who has too sensi- tive a windpipe, which, on the slightest irrita- tion, closes up, just as a snail, when touched by a twig, rolls himself up within his house. Moreover, as the cause of the closing of the windpipe is a nervous one, there is no end to the possible irritations which may give rise to asthma in different persons. Nothing is so uncertain as asthma; the smoky air of a city will bring on an attack in one person, whilst strangely enough, it will prove the only means of cure in another! On the contrary, a bright, dry, and sunny air, will be a blessing to some chronic sufferers from asthma, whilst others have to flee from it, shutting themselves in their own houses, where they can make an atmosphere congenial to themselves by means of smoke and steam. Some patients recover if sent to live at the seaside—others require a flat inland country by a river; others, again, are only well when living amongst the rarefied air of a mountain plateau, whilst the densely-populated centres of London and Liverpool prove the only 8Wre remedy in many cases. Simple attacks of a stlima, occurring in per- sons who are not already habitual smokers, may be cured by a whiff or two of cigar smoke. This is a fact worth knowing, as children suffer from attacks of asthma, and if the very first fit were speedily cured by a few whiffs of smoke, there might be iess chance of the diSfease developing and becoming chronic. Nitre paper, made by soaking blotting-paper in a mixture of saltpetre and water, is one of the most effective remedies for asthma. A piece of this paper, being thoroughly dried, is set on a plate and lighted, in such a position that there is no danger of setting light to the fufhitur6; dense fumes fill the atmosphere, Which liaVe a soothing effect on the irritated tiiiis,
