Oil 1'or Wag-on Wheels.
A practical man says : ‘’I have a wagon
of which, six years Kg), the felli -s shrank
so that the ties became loose. I gave it a
good coat of hot oil, and every year since
it has had a coat of oil or paint, sometimes
both. The tires are tight yet. and they
have not been set for eight’or nine years.
Afany farmers think that as soon as wagon
fellies begin to shrink they must go at
once’to a blacksmith shop aiid get the tire
set. Instead of doing that which is often
a damage to the wheels, causing them to'
dish, if they will get sonic linseed oil and
heat it boiling hot and give the fellies all
the oil they e-’lfffitkD it will till them up
to their usual size and tighten to keep
them from shrinking, and also to keep out
the water. If you do not wish to go to
the trouble of mixing paint, you can heat
the oil and tie a rag to a stick and swab
them over as long as they will take oil. A
brush is more convenient to use, but a
swab will answer if you do not wish to
buy a brush. It is quite a saving of time
and money to look litter the.woodwork of
farm machinery. Alternate wetting and
drying injures and causes the best wood
soon to decay and loose its strength unless
kept well painted. Lt pays to keep a little
oil on hand to oil fork babbles. rakes, neck
yokes, whillletrees. and any of the small
tools on the farm that are more or less
exposed.7’

Too often, there is an absurd idea that a
fever patient must be keep very warm or
hot, that no air must be admitted, and that
light is almost or quite. poison. At first,

sufficiently warm, though it is not needful
to exclude1 pit-re ’air "al aiiy time. But

The Married Flirt.
a wise cook says.- -mever non vogera- < No class of women of the beau monde
hies wiih soup-stock, for if you do, it will : do more harm than those married women
who amuse themselves by carrying on a
! "•harmlessflirtation”—a (h.'Signation which

1 . ' '
attraction, lint her husband is made
happy and she becomes the subject of un-
pleasant comment. It is frequently said
that pretty young married women are
frequently much more attractive to gen-
tlemen than it is possible for young ladies
to be. The reason assigned for this is
that men can talk to them with less re-
straint, can adopt toward them a more
free-aml-casy tone which renders them
agreeable companions. 'Die truth of the
matter is that men may with impunity
lavish upon married women attentions
which, if offered single women, would be
decidedly committal^ and as society men
are not often burdened with mom y, and
are not prepared to set up establishments
of their own, they avoid the, society of
young girls,and join thetrain of somegay
you ng "-matron, are contented with such
crumbs of comfort as she sees lit to bestow
upon him. It is almost incomprehensible
that any man of sense should be willing
to become one. of this retinue, who are
permitted to carry my lady’s shawl, or
hold her f hi, in return for assiduous devo-
tion, but they are llattered by such dis-
tinction—it makes them fashionable. No
unmarried man should be blamed for car-
rying On a. flirtation with a married wo-
man when she takes the initiative; but a
woman should be censured who, having
voluntarily exchanged the freedom of
girlhood for the responsibilities of a wife,
disregards her husband’s claim upon her
t ine and attention, and flitters them away
in a sidy flirtation with some man who.
While professing ardent adoration, secretly
condemns her, and perhaps ridicules lief
at his club. If a woman feels that she is
unwilling to relinquish t lie attention which
as a girl v. as hers by righ’t; that the devo-
tion of one man cannot compensate her for
(hat which she gives up in marrying him,
-lie should remain unmarried; but, being
married,- let her content herself with the
admiration of her husband, and cease to
desire that oi other men. Ido not mean
to imply that because a woman is married
she should be isolaietl, and in society be
relegated to the companionship of her hus-
band. There is a certain kind of atten-
tion to which marrie.d women are‘entitled,
and which they may receive without pro-
voking comment. Talented, attractive
women may draw around them men of
intellect, welcome them to their homes,
and make I hemselves the center of a cul-
tivated circle: may show that they take
ple'asure in their society, and may accept
their chivalrous attentions in a pleasant,
frank manner without being at all ilirta-
tions. But when married women permit
me.i to pay them fulsome compliments, to
imtkelovcnke speeches, to them, and to
show them marked attention, they depart
from that matronly dignity which is one
of their greatest charms. It is alleged by
those who seek to excuse the flirtations of
married women, that it is very hard for a
married woman who had once been a belle
to do without admiration; and another ex-
cuse that perhaps the husband is lacking
in admiration, is uninteresting, and so she
•a'eks the companionship of men who are
inte^astHig. Although a gradual dimi-
nution of aftectionate attention on the
part of a husband is a great grief t»a
wife, it does not warrant her in eng igbig
in a flirtation as a cure for ennui.- 'There
are other more elliuaeious methods of
dealing with recalcitrant husbands, and
w.iile a loving wife who is neglected,
always elicits sympathy, sympathy
gives place to censure if she becomes
a flirt in order to avenge her wrongs.

The Kiss of History.
It was with a kiss thM the darkhrowed
Judgas gave the preordained sign ; it was
a kiss by which King Assuherus signified
to liiii trembling Esther. A kiss dismiss-
ed tie hapless Essex to the melancholy
death the whimsical love of the ferocious
Elizabeth made a dugger inlier life for-
ever after. It was a kiss that lulled the
victims of Lucretia Borgia’s innumerable
intrigues to ,fhe noisome dungeons of the
Castle d'Estes. A kiss wasa sign that the
perfidious Queen Catherine de Medici
made.the token of the weak king’s assent
to the m;.s<acre of St. Bartholomew. Bru-
tus made his treachery to bis benefactor
more odious by a miscreant kiss at the
very moment his dagger was uncovered
for the slaughter of ids adopted father.
William, the Ccnqdei'r/r, saluted his eon-
tiding kinsman Harold on both cheeks at
the same moment he meditated wresting
his kingdom fi^im him. The kiss is quite
as often the sign of rniidelity as it is of the
amenities of love. On entering the battle
of old. the knights graciously saluted t C
company by a kiss .on the. blade of.the
I sword. ’At the battle of Ivy, old chroni-
cles relate that the gallant knights of
France deliberately drew tip in a line. ;.iid
raising their swords, kissed their blad< s
then set impetuously forward with the
lance. If Homer is.to be taken literally,
the honest heroes of the Iliad made the
kiss preface nearly every undertaking,
from the sacrilice of a bird to the delivery
of a battle.
Achilles actually stopped a combat in
in order to give Paris time to go and kiss
Helen. Meh and women have been known
to risk life and fortune merely to pledge
their troth in the passing ecstasy of a kiss.
The mere Sensual gratification o’flip meet-
ing lip is not the inspiration that Hows
from the t melting ot the lip. Kisses are
the treble and clefs that mark the perfect
melody in the song and sympathy of life.

A good way to use the yolks of eggs
when you have them left after making
cake with the whites, is to keep them in a
cool place; in the morning i»eat them
well, ami dip slices of bread in them and
fry browti. Stale bread maybe used lor

Pretty splashers to put behind the wash-
stands in common rooms may be made of
parts’of old curtains. Wash and starch
them, line them with bright-colored cam-
bric and tack them up. If you have old
Wrehon or Yrfiy suitable luce, trim the
edges with that.
A delicious hard sauce for puddings is
made by shaving some maple sugar just
as thin’as possible, and mixing it Willi
butter in the proportion of two table-
spoonfuls of sugar to one of butter. Serve
with hot puddings by putting a spoonful
on the top of the saucerful of pudding.
To please the children make some jam
pulls : Boll some pic-crust very thin, cut
it in squares, put a spoonful .of, jam on
each piece, wet the edges with the white
of an egg and fold them together, bake
for fifteen minutes or just long enough to
cook the crust. Sugar and milk may. be
used in place of the.egg.

A delicious prune pudding is made by
stewing a pound of prunes till they are
soft, remove the stones, and sugar to your
taste, and the whites of three eggs beaten
to a stiff froth. Make a puff' paste for the
bottom of a pudding dish. After beating
the eggs and prunes together till they are
thoroughly mixed, spread" them on the
crust. Bake for half an hour, or until you
are sure the’crust is done.
A handsome square spread for a table is
made precisely as if it. were one block of a
crazy quilt. .To make it and have the parts
.all join in together and harmonize as they
'should, take the' lining of cotton and cut
it thcrexact size of the spread, and begin
to put the work on at one corner. This is
tastefully finished by putting a band of
velvet around the edge and trimming that
with lace or fringe, or of tassels put on at
an equal distance from each other.

put a layer of cold mashed potatoes in the

butter over it ; cover with another layer
of potato, sprinkle pepper and salt, and
then put lumps of butter over this. Bake

should be brown and have a’ nice crust
over it.

O soul of mine, look out and see
My bride, my. bride, that is to 1 e !

And draw aside futurity
As one might draw a veil aside.
And so unveil her where she stands
Madonna-like ami glorified—

My bride, my bride that is to be.
'f'he shadirv of a willow tree ;
'That waves on a garden wall
In summer time- may never fall
In attitude as gracefully
As my fair bride, that is to be :
Nor even autumn's leaves of brown
As lightly flutter to the lawn
As fall her fairy feet upon
'The paths of love she loiters down.
(i'er drops of dew she walks and yet
' Not one may stain her sandal wet ;
.And she might dance upon the way
Nor crush a single drop of sjiray'1 ,

All warm and weary-like to me;
And then as suddenly, my sight
Is blinded by a smile so bright,
'Through folded lids I still ni.-iy see
My bride, my bride that is to be.
Her face is like a night of June
Upon whose brow the crescent moon
Hangs pendent in a diadem
Of stars that envy lighting them ;
And. like a wild cascade, her hair
Floods neck and shoulders, arm and wrist,
