LIFE OF A SETTLER’S WIFE—HOME DUTIES OF MRS. GOWANLOCK,
'n her last letter to her friends in Ontario Mrs. Gowanlock, who fella prisoner into the hands of Big Bear, says (March 20) :—
‘* Tt’s not cold enough to freeze an Indian up here ; we are having beautifcl weather for nearly two weeks ; it does not freeze in the day time. Rita-ke-lop-wat-akowe-yan, ketapwalakoweyah. Sakehikooyitiowealook- waketapwatapwatakowinanewekopun, Ako- winanuounokowun. Effie, read this and find the meaning ; as you have got to be a teacher you should be able to pronounce these words. On Sunday, Johnny and I went up to Mr. Delauey’s, and in the after- noon he and Mr. Delaney went out for a ride, out seven miles, to see if there was any timber to be had We got our dinner and supper, and then they brought us home in the evening ; it’s just a nice walk, and there are trees on each side of the road We have no fences up here either; and some of the In- dians were chopping wood. The Indians make their squaws do the work and they sit on a log and smoke and Jook as happy as you please. I asked Johnny why he did not marry a squaw and he would not have to work. They bring us large white fish all cleaned nicely. All [have to do is to wash them. We had fish and potatoes, beets and prune pie, and bread for dinner. Johnny taught me how to fry potatoes, and they are nice too, «1 put some gravy in the pan and after the petatoes are boiled I put them in the pan and take a knife and mash them all nice and fine, put pepper and salt on, and then eut them up and take a plate, lay over the top, and brown them slowly, and then turn the pan upside down and you will have a nice dish. And I take canned tomatoes to make them go farther; I put more water with them and
take soda biscuit and roll them in and season. I have no trouble in baking bread. I may make my own yeast, with
hops and flour, and then, before putting away, | put ginger and sugar in, and when I set bread in the evening, about six o'clock, |] take warm water aud make a thin batter and put the yeast in and let it stand two or three hours, and then I add some more warm water and make it in a thick batter. In the morn- ing it’s away up to the top of the bread pan; | then knead it down and let it get pice and light, and then put it in the dishes. I have the oven nice and hot be- fore putting it in and my bread comes out a nice brown and is white and flakey. The flour we have is far nicer than you have down there, and ours is spring wheat too. Mrs. Delaney says when her cows give milk enough she will let us have butter. She is avery nicewoman. We are going to have a post office ui here shortly. The men are working as hard as they can to have the mill going in about six weeks, and then it will sound like business, and then the place will nut beso quiet. Johnny got his feet wet, and he has a cold and speaks very hoarse. Mine has gone now; it’s his turn I suppose i? = -
Some Decorative Don'ts.
WHAT WILL ADORN YOUR HOUSE AND SAVE A WORLD OF TROUBLE.
Don’t forget this elementary principle, that a room must not consist of unrelated colors and objects, but possess a harmoni- ous unity in its plan of furnishing and de- coration.
Don’t put high colors on your walls or in your carpets or tapestry, and very little of it anywhere else. Wall paper must be quiet in tone if you desire to produce a pleasant efiect. Pictures cannot look well if hung against loud patterns or positive colors ; your bric-a-brac is sure to be in-

effective and tasteless ; its designs are con- fused with the designs and colors against which it is placed.
Don’t fresco walls or ceiling. Fresco painting is very weil for large halls or grand saloons, but the effect is not good for domestic rooms. Colour‘on the walls in this way is sure to be in conflict with what- ever colour may be brought in, whether in pictures, furniture, hangings, or decorative objects.
on’t select carpets with yay tints or pro- nounced designs. It is impossible for furniture to appear to good advantage set upon florid patterns, clamouring, so to speak, to be seen. Carpeis and wall colours should be as foils for colour and crnament, rather than colour and ornament in them- selves. It is impossible to furnish a room agreeably unless this principle is kept in mind.
Don’t have white marble-topped tables or marbie mantels in your rooms, for objects of this kind are enough to chill the heart of a bronze statue. White walls ina room are equally chilling. It is impossible to do anything with them.
COLD AND UNRELENTING SURFACES
they will remain, plan as one may. A touch of grey or brown in the tint ie ao great help, but white is absolutely fatal to decorative effect.
Don’t be persuaded into varnished floors ‘and rugs instead of carpets. Floors treated in this manner are a serious nuisance. Every footfall mars them, and costs more to keep them in good order than to pay for ‘carpets at the outset. If, however, these are repeatedly oiled and varnished and ‘ceaseless pains taken to keep them in good condition, the effect is very pieasing. |Articles of furniture stand out against the | dark varnish in rich and artistic contrast. Don’t be induced to lay upon your floors,Turkisn or Persian rugs. The figures ‘and colors of these rugs are considered very artistic, but the fact is they usurp the at- j}tention altogether too much, and it is difficult to get them in harmony with walls ‘or furniture. A rug made from well select- ed Brussels carpet is much more satisfac- tory. A rug of this kind, with a queer centrepiece and a broad border, in which a little color is introduced, and made so as to have about two feet of stained floor space around it, gives much of the efiect of rug furnishing, without the annoyances that pertain to floors with large spaces uncover-

Don't put elaborate brass grates in your
room unless you intend to use them. A
showy brass grate, unstained by smoke or
ashes, suggests in ail the glittering newness, A SHOW-ROOM ANL NOT 4 HOME.
A fireplace not consecrated toa fire, that has neither warmth nor suggestion of warmth is a dreadful sham. It is not ar- tistic; it is not decorative; it kiils, rather than gives pleasure.
Don’t hang upon your walls huge black engravings set in vast spaces of white mar- gin. Pictures of this sort are very depress- ing. Instead of white margins substitute a grey paper, and if you must have black prints select these that have a good deal of grey in them—pictures with tone and meliew effects. Etchings commonly have more softness and artistic effect than engravings. Don’t heng chromos on your walls, or colored prints; don’t display long lines of family photographs; don’t hang mosses, or colored leaves, or dried grasses about
DON’T HAVE FANCY DEVICES
for picture frames. Picture frames should be of gilt or oak or walnut, never of vel- vet, never of ornamental leather work, never of shelle or burrs, or anything fantas- tic. Whatever the material, let ornament be sparingly used. Picture frames should set off the picture and not set oif them- selves.

Clean Kitchens.
THOROUGH CLEANLINESS AS MUCH A GIFT OF NATURE AS POETIC GENIUS,
A very pretty little personal paragraph, says The Cook, is going the rounds to the effect that George Eliot's favorite room in a house was a clean kitchen. This is worth knowing and emphasizing. Not that anybody would be surprised at her preference, bat becauge the knowledge may give the clean kitchen a boom,
There is no doubt in the world thata ‘thoroughly clean kitchen is one of the healihiest and cheeriest places to be found. Every house ought to be clean from cellar to roof, but the kitchen ought to be par- ticularly clean. It is the place where the food that is to maintain the human body and to evolve itself into human ideas is prepared, and from which it is served, Any dust or cobwebs or vile odours about the kitchen are sure to get into the food, and so help to poison the human victims fed thereby. But the breath of a kitchen fire and of healthy cooking are as invigorating as anything short of an ocean breeze.
People who have madea study of human faces know very well that the George Eliot type of face means cleanliness and good housekeeping where ever women are found. Perhaps this gift, or combination of gifts, resulting in thorough character and thorough cleanliness, is as much a gift of nature as the gift of poetic genius itself.
A clean kitchen is not a question of servantly hire. A dowdy woman will have a dowdy kitchen ne matter how many ser- vants she has; and next to impurity of character in a woman, impurity of kitchen becomes the curse of any house where it is found.

The Imperial war minister is drafting a plan for a large increase of the army based upon calculated results of the coming gen- eral census. The peace effective will be raised from 418,000 to 480,000. F:esides this, two new batteries will be added to each corps d'armee, and two guns to each battery so mobilized, practically augmenting the artillery sixty per cent. The cavalry increase has not yet been decided upon.
