NURSERY HINTS. In furnishing the nursery be careful not to 'fill the room with useless objects. A sleeping- room should not contain more furniture than is absolutely required for the child's use. It is best to stain and varnish the floor, laying down a removable carpet or mats. Fill up the crevices between the boards of the flooring with putty, and varnish them over. These spaces are too often tho raceptacles for dust and dirt, and anything which could in any way vitiate the air of the room should be, eliminated. Never put starch in babies' underclothing. The linen which touches their delicate skins should be as soft and fine as possible, and any hard tucks or coarse \:1; •nast be o voided. Pvon in the case of bigger children, a too free use of st-3r"b is to be condemned, the stiffn<:>6s being so PFL.<s»1y inclined to chsife the small limbs, --speci- ally when taking active exercise. iioico "j a child's shoos should be made with care. On a wise selection in the first early years of life much of the future comfort of an individual may depend; and many a well-formed foot, which is the pride of its owner, owes its immaculate shape to sensible treatment in child- hood. A baby's foot is naturally wedge-shaped —narrow at the heel and broadening at the toes. It is unwise to provide a child with boots which are too big for it, in the hope that it will grow to thom." If they should be a little long in the foot, the old-fashioned method of putting a. pii.'ce of cottonwool in the too cannot be im- proved upon. The straps should never be tight over the instep, and care must be taken to see that the soles are quite smooth and even, as a curled-up sock is agony to a delicate foot.

HOUSEWORK AND HEALiM. There is nothing like housework for physical T'ulture. In the various complex movements performed by the different sets of muscles dur- jrvv-' the innumerable evolutions incidental to houwswork we have an admirable system of gym- na.sti s peculiarly adapted to the needs of WOKC-TI. A certain amount of exercise which arc !&s and interests the mental faculties while •occupying the activities of the bodily organs is tw ossnry to health, and housework undoubtedly complies with both of those conditions. In many a household the daughters take their share of the lighter branches of the work, but in many another establishment dusting is considered un- dirfnifu'tl, polishing plebeian, and bed-making a bore, and go the womenfolk leave the work to hir-d liand.A, while they amuse themselves at so- called physical culture classes, where, perhaps, they boat the air with Indian clubs, a form of exeroise considered more dignified, if less useful, "than beating carpets with rattan caues.

ANTI-CONSUMPTION DON'TS. To prevent the spread of tuberculosis, the following rules should be observed: Don't spit on the pavement. Don't spit on the floor of your home. Don't spit on the floor of your shop. Don't cough without holding a hand- kerchief or your hand over your mouth. Donjt live ia rooms where there is no fresh air. Don't work in rooms where there is no fresh air. Don't sleep in rooms where there is no fresh air. Don't neglect a cold or a cough.

TO CLEAN A GOLD CHAIN. A fine gold chain or an intricate piece of silver work can be cleaned in the following manner. Brush gently with a soft nail brush ;n a warm soapy lather. Rinse the chain well, and then lay it in boxwood sawdust without drying. The sawdust can usually be obtained at an engraver's.

A PROPER STIMULANT. One reason why some ni-i do not get along better in this world is b<?cnu>e they have not the proper stimulant in their Koines. Their homes lack those little touches of refinement which bring the best o'-tt. of them. Neatness and tilde are possible in the poorest homos. Let a woman riake the atmosphere as dainty as her means allow, and she will raise her husband to the same standard. And as she elevates him the effect is felt upon herself, her children, her home, and her future. Some men respond more slowly to the touch of a woman's hand displayed in their homes and upon their surro mdings. The task may soem hopeless to the wife at times. But sooner or later the effect will shew itself. There is something in every man which re- sponds to a higher and gentler influence. Let his home be rough, and he will be rough. But infuse into that home a softening touch, be it ever so simple, and the man feels it even though he may not dire-Hy notice it. He imbibes it unconsciously, and its effect is sure upon him.

TO CLEAN A CLOTH OR SERGE DRESS. Pick some fro-n laurel leave- find place them in a bowl of boiling water. Allow them to steep for several hours, then strain, and apply the liquid with a sponge, damping the dress all over, and rubbing well in a lengthwise direction with a linen cloth. Hang out in the air, and when dry shake out and brush well.

ST. DAVID. The following poem was read by Mr Goronwy Jones at the St David's Day dinner last week :— For the Children. St. David-patron saint of Wales— Was Sandde's only son His mother daughter of Gynir, And once a holy nun. In Pembrokeshire the saint was born, Nigh Solva by the sea Hen Fynyw was his rearing place Until a youth was he. To school he went to Whitland, where Paulinus taught and prayed Ten years of splendid progress in That monastry he made. I Now grown a man, he thought of home 0 And back to Glyn Rhos went The day be preached to pagan poor, The night to study lent. 'Twas not for long he worked alone- His converts multiplied And then a brotherhood he formed, With rules thought out and tried. These cared for sick and aged poor, And for wayfaring men They lived a simple, frugal life, That they might give again. The cloister bell at early morn Called every man to pray Then through the villages they went, And preached the live long day. Then came Pelagius and his band, Who preached sad heresy Until the Church of God grew cold With grave controversy. The Svnod of Llanddewi sent For David, with all speed He went; and soon his arguments t, Destroyed the noxious creed. The Synod gave a lusty shout— "Let him Archbishop be And David thus became the head And father of the See. 'Twas thirteen hundred years ago He lived his holy life When pirates plundered on our shores, And raging wars were rife. Assuming naught, but toiling much, The lore of Christ he spread Until the land was filled with truth, And hungry souls were fed. The old man died, his name enshrined Within a nation's heart And, treading in his footsteps still, That nation plays her part. St. David's is his monument— Cathedral town unique And churches bearing his good name, We have not far to seek. If Welshmen love true, holy lives, If God they love and fear; The grand tradition of their saint They will, they must, revere. D. E. JENKINS.

SATURDAY'S RESULTS. Rhyl Victoria (h) 5 Abergele 0 MATCHES FOR SATURDAY (March 10). *Prestatyn v. Abergele. Llandudno v. Rhyl Church Guild *Denbigh T. Ruthin "Home Team. Prestatyn will receive a visit from their great rivals Abergele on Saturday in the Junior League, and a hotly contested game should result, despite the heavy defeat snffered by the wearers of the Red Shirt at the hands of the Rhyl Victorias on Saturday. Prestatyn will bring out their full strength, and on form should win. Will the forwards be content with scoring a win by the odd goal? If so, they should here note that all the clubs above Prestatyn in the League Table can boast a better goal average, so it behoves the forwards to put on their shooting boots and not be content with just keeping the lead. They must remember their goal average. The following team will do duty for Prestatyn Goal, W. Glass backs, J. T. Williams and Pryce Jones; halves, Jack Jones, Bell Jones, and D. G. Jones"; forwards, J. Parry, T. Brooks, R. Hughes, G. Glass. and L. Watts. Reserves, R. Jones, W, Williams and E. Holbrook. Who is the referee for Saturday, and will lie turn up ? Lovie Jones played a grand game for Wales on Saturday, and scored one of the two goals which enabled the Principality to defeat Scotland at Edinburgh for the first time in their career.
