"I have often wished to talk with maujma, to tell her things that happen and ask her about tjem; but she never eeeme ready to listen, and tells me 1 have time enough to talk about sncti things." "My doar little friend," I said, "keep on trying to tell your mamma, and she will listen after a while, I think.

No one can advise yon as well as your mother." "I know that, but mamma says I must not bother her with such foolish talk. I long lor someone to confide in, and to advise me. 1 don't know what does ail me." Poor little child How my heart did feel lor her. iSlio had just reached that all-important oi a gill's existence when she stands timidly "where the brook and river meet," about to enter the mybterioue realm ol womanhood, and wns struggling into the knowledge which she should have received Irom none but her mother's lips. Not the slightest burst of confidence seemed to exist between her mother and heraelf.

It was the mother's limit, hhe was wronging her lair little daughter by repelling her confidence, and unconsciously driving her toward danger by Ilie very means by which sue sought to keep her the paths of safety. It was not an exceptional case. Many a mother Knows little ol what in paeemtr in her daughter's heart, which should be to her as an open book. Mother, the very It rat approach to danger is the repelling ol your dmich- ter's confidence. Listen to her, and at the right time tell her the things which site must and will know, for it is far better that they be henrd from your lips, whence the kuowledue will be received and held with reverence, than to be imbibed Irom auspicious and injurioua sources whence even the most stirred thinirs receive the stump of vulgarity.

Happy is the mother whose innute tact and wisdom enables her to keep the lines of love and confidence drawn around her daughter, and to wisely reveal to her that mysterious half-light which precedes the lull dawning of womanly wisdom. MARION FI.EETIVOOD. Writli'ti for tin- Kisses are well enough if judiciously indulged in. tuey have been an abused that the very word "kies" is sickening. I believe in kissinc when the occasion calls for it.

i believe in parents kissing their all the time, but occasionally. But I do not believe in women kissing one another whenever and wherever they may chance to meet. U'heu two silly, simpering girls meet upon the street, alter, perchance, only a week's Reparation, it is positively disgusting to an observer. And the kiss means nothing. It is a form that ought to be condemned bv all intelligent people.

It is not in good taste to mate public demonstrations of friendship or affection. It may seem cold and half-hearted, but I should say a hand-clasp, accompanied with a smilo and a few welJ- chosen words of greeting, would be an admirable substitute for the gushing and kissing displayed by so many women in pumic places. Not formal words particularly, but words that are heartfelt as well as pleasant and friendly. I noticed, recently, a discussion on kissing in a certain periodical. A number of young girls thought a "kiss at the gate no harm.

My advice to girls would be: "Keep j'Otir kisses for those have tv right to them." No man has a right to nsk a girl for a kiss nnlees she is his betrothed. l)o not let it be said in the after-years, when you are happily wedded, that any other than yoar husband has ever taken a kiss Irom your lips. Do not think your -husband will not this knowledge. He will more, perhaps, than you will ever guess. A girl has literally no dignity who permits herself to be kissed or caressed by young men of her acquaintance.

Such kisses are meaningless, and if they have uny result it is to lessen her self-respect. "Familiarity breeds contempt." Ke- member that always. No need to fly into the face of the man who lays his hand on your arm or touches you iight- Iv on the shoulder. A frown or a little coldness will suffice. He will not attempt anch familiarity again.

There are a few sacred kisses, such as a mother's kiss pressed upon the innocent lips of her child, a husband's lips at partinc, and a betrothal kiss. We should remember and keep ouj kisses for those wiiom we love. ELLA MABTIN. A Rag Carpet. Written for the Wisconsin.

"Rnf: carpets are an abomination; they are always ugly." That was the masculine verdict. But I wanted a carpet for my room, and could not afford a better one, though I mentally, shuddered while recalling the vivid ugliness of the reds, yellows, purples, blues, oranges and greens I have so often Been mingled together in one common stripe. Bare floors meant scrubbing, however; sol set to work to carry out my idea, which was to make toy carpet a "harmony in red," as I called it to myself. I found, upon Bbrtine over the rags, a quantity of black that mast he need and could not be dyed. This was a set-back, I but, determined to make the best of it, I laid it by itself, and, in the end, it proved a gain.

The rest of the rags I sewed "hit-or- miES," then dyed them. Of course, as they were different colors when they went in the dye, they were different shades when they came out, but they were all red enough to "harmonize." In the weavingtne black wasintroduced at regular intervals, ES stripes, and, as I said, 1 was better satisfied than if 1 had carried out my original plan. The black combined prettily and naturally with the darker shades ol red, and obviated the eye-fatigiieing monotony common to "bit-or-miss." i chose red in my carpet, to match the other articles in my room, but the idea could lie carried out as well in other in dillerent shades of brown, lor instance, with a thread of yellow running thro' it, that could be practically called "gold;" MAKY COONEY. Written for the Wisconsin. Some time since 1 was shown through a house which was being built by a wealthy farmer.

It had not been plastered, but the studding or the partitions had nearly all been put up. The prospective mistress was my guide, and she told me the size of each loom and the use for which it was intended. After admirmgthe large, high Bleeping rooms, the bay window, the double parlors, the large dining-room and kitchen, the partition between which was to be composed of cupboards and drawers opening irom Bide, i asked, "but where are the closets?" My hostets said, "I wanted some closets, but Thomas thought it was better to have good, large bedrooms, and then we hang up clothes in them, and some time he would get some wardrobes; and that back r.harnbsr over the kitchen we will probably never lurnibh, and we can put up books in there und set b.ixes and trunks there out of the wuy." I remarked that I should not h'ke (hut ut ail. I fai-i wardrobes are very nice as iar as they go. but il one has 10 depend on them they usually iall short, and clothes in bedrooms are sure to be duetr and in tue way.

she said, "1 have often thought about it, but Thomas thought closets unnecessary, and I don't like to lind fault." I think this woman was very much to blp.me. It is not all likely that her husband would have thought she was finding fault if she hud insisted upon having the inside of the house arranged as she thouent most convenient. for one, should not like to have a man plan my house, and especially it he hud no closets in it. I think if I have a fad it is lor closets and cupboards. I have lair amount my house, but 1 am always longing for just one more.

My object in writing this is to set people who are having new house built to thinking about thid matter before it is too late. There should be alllofet for every family bedroom, and as many more, as possible us the size of the lamtly re- (juires. I have one large or.e where we bung the overcoats, cloak and surb garments are only required oc- asiouaHy. One end is filled with hflveti to stow away bi'daing when not in use. Under the shelves is a large chest to pack blankets in.

It has a sliding cover which tits perfectly tight, (so Unit moth oonld not get in vcn ii one should get into t.ie closet, which 1 iiuk uiilikitiy p.b the door is kept shut. In (inn corner of the upper ha'l is a large ihree-curnered cupboard. Jt clots not occ'ipy much room, and it was put in when the hoube wus built, so did not cost much; out 1 should not know how to keep house without it. At the bottom are two large drawers, where 1 keep patterns, articles for scrap boons, sumps tor l.incy work, ana many other thines too numerous to mention. The cupboard hold papers, magazines, books thai ure too shabby for the br.ok- casu, Kchool hooks, slates, and inany things that would otherwise oe in the way.

But now dcn't laugh at me when I tUEt the handiest closet I buve isor.e ihat is built in one corner of the wood- liotise. 1 think every farmer's wife who lias not such an one will wish she had when she thinks how mnrh muss and dirt it will save. It is well supplied with hooks, where everyday hats, and scaris are hung when notin use. In one end is a shell about a foot from the loor, where shoes and bootsaresetaller have been cleaned. Another shelf tiitrher up holds cloves and mittens, and in it are blacking-box and brushes.

A whisk broom hangs inside the door, and they are used much oftener than they would be if they were not so handy. FEATBLLE. Onr Cliftpurniins. Written tor the Wisconsin. The idea advanced may have many that American girls should je chaperoned a'ter the foreign ustom; that especially the young ao- iety girl needs a chaperone to guide jar through the mazy whirl of fasb- onable life until she attains the goal of ler ambition, namely a rich husband, vitb.

not too glaring eccentricities of manner. There may be untold danger every band, for a young lady who lao nothing but her own good sense and a correct bringing up to guard and rtiide her behavior. It may even be lecossary to follow the plan of those ady government in Wash- ngton, who attend their daughters to dancing parties, and, over-wearied by he exertions of the day, nod and doze some cozy nook while the dangh- ers enjoy themselves. It is a nice at least that the innocent sweet things should be carefully tuarded from contact with the rude world, and daughters of wealthy, reined parents may be fortunate enough 0 receive this care. Unfortunately it a facts, and not theories, with which we have to deal.

Where there ia one wealthy society girl there are, at least, dozens Of girls in more humble stations, no less loveable, with equal beauty and intelligence, if not cultivation, who have to depend entirely upon themselves in these matters. Some of them, elder, sell-sacrificing, hardworking eistera end daughters in large amil'es, accept a'youngman's escort to a dancing party, concert, or church enter- ainn.ent, where he pays all expenses as a matter ol course, sometimes hiring 1 conveyance, in inclement weather, ind accompanying the young lady to and rom the entertainment. Tito weary mother, in this case, is only too glad to retire early, recruiting her strength for he morro'w, and would think it most absurd to be expected to attend the people for propriety's sake. klany a girl is not placed where a chaperone is possible, even if deaired. School teachers, clerks, dressmakers, milliners, and girls in other branchesof rasiness, are olten Jrom country lomes, or other cities one in which they are employed.

are obliged to attend entertainments alone, or with young lady prgen- lemen friends, or stay at home, and, proper or not, almost every one ot them will accept attentions of rentlemen. Most of these are modest, Belf-reBpecting ladies, and do not abuse the privileges they enjoy. In most small places young men form dancing cluba for winter amusement, and it ia the custom lor 'each gentleman to attend one or more.young ladies on such occasions, come ot these girls are from the best society of these places and may be highly educated and ac complisbed, yet consider it no breach of decorum to go with a respectabh young man tp any proper place amusement. I'-am old-fashioned enough to believe that all young men are no roues and scrapegraces, and that manj an honorable, Eelf-respecting young man will treat any modest, deserving gir with all the respect he would show his own Bister. if a young man is lacking in principle a girl should rerase all attempts a friendship or farnibarity, and if obligee to meet him in society a uniformly cold demeanor, without the least rudeness will soon cause him to withdraw his un welcome attention, for nothing is so crushing to men's vanity as studied indifference.

An easily flattered, Billy girl, or one vety young or inexperienced, needs re etraint, and should be kept at home until she knows how to conduct hersel: properly; or if amusement is permitted sprue gu.irdian, possibly a more sensible sister, or fiiend, should accompany her. A girl properly trained by a sensible mother should most certainly need no safeguard save her own purity ol motive and knowledge of right and wrong. Then as it is and will be utterly out of the question for the great majority of American girls to have chaperones, and aa it must be conceded thut there ia aa much need in girla ot the middle classesto be and sensible maidens and wives, as in higher circles, our duly is to teach our boys true manliness, and to honor the aex to which belong his mother and sister, though soire be unworthy, and to thoroughly instruct our girls in a knowledge of good and evil doing, and train them to be thoroughly sensible, pure minded, self-reliant girls.

"Oli, that's my memorandum book," was the reply. "When I first began to keep h.iuse out in this suburban spot, we would frequently sit down to a meal nnd discover that there was no pepper in the pepper-castor, or no vineear in the cruet, or only a quarter oi a loal of bread in the bos, or some little thing like that, which had slipped my memory among the number of more important things I had to think ol; by themselves of little account, but just big enough to take tne completeness away from a good meal, which it needs, to be thoroughly enjoyed.

I tried it for a week, but it was so pretty that if I were baking pies, say, and observed that the cloves were almost cone, 1 would have to stop and wash the paste from my hands belore I could handle that pretty book.

Consequently I used to say, 'Oh. I'll not stop now. I'll just remember that and put down when I have aome others to go with Of course, I forgot all about the cloves until the next time-I went to some and found not half enough.
