O. Chapman,) to kingdom Household Hints. For the busy housewife who plans her work for each day and seldom has any spare time, a few recipes of small cakes that will keep gives one a feeling of security, like a bank account, that whoever comes there is something In the houfie to fall back on. These may be served with a cup of tea to restore the tired nerves of the friend who drops in or with a salad or Ice may serve as a dessert. Cookies with fruit keep their freshness longer than thoseWithout. It is a good plan to have two or three varieties on hand at tta same time. One busy housekeeper when making spice, fruit or ginger cookies that need to be rolled to be shaped, mixes them the day before wanted, and chills them over night on Ice. They roll with little flour and cut so nice and smooth that It Is a little trick worth remembering. Another advantage Is gained as the seasoning has a chance to penetrate the dough well before baking. Here are a few favorite small cakes: . Oatmeal Cookies. Cream of a cupful of lard or butter, add one cupful of sugar gradually, two eggs well beaten, four tablespoonfuls of milk, two cupfuls each of flour, and oatmeal, one half a tenspoonful of soda and one teaspoon- ful of baking powder sifted with the flour, one-hal- f teaspoonful of salt and one cupful each of raisins and pecan meats, noli ana cut with a cooky cutter or drop by teaspoonfuls on a ha. king sheet, the latter Is easier and an much more satlsfoctory.

There is nothing more beautiful than the devotion and love of motherhood; but Is there not danger in too much devotion? The child that Is never out from under the g watchful eye of the mother because she fears something may happen to It, has no chance to grow In its own way or develop Its Individuality. If one analyzes that watchfulness Isn't there an element of selfishness In It, fear of some accident Is not so strong as fear of the inconvenience, if something did happen. As the child grows older the same mother who watches hla play, fears to have him fish, or swim, or hunt, and he Is denied those pleasures or half enjoys them, knowing that hla mother Is worrying all the time about his welfare. If a boy or girl develops any originality of character, they must be left some what to themselves, of course, with a reasonable amount it direction and watchfulness, otherwise tiiey only oUur parrot like, or echot s of mind.
