Deep gullies lay eoneealed under treacherously smiling wild flowers. Ground-hog holes ottered pitfalls lia ble to break the leg of his steed; overhanging limbs swept him in the face, nnd the wild brier ever and anon caught liiin in a painful and harassing embrace.

No part of the laundry work is. as a rule, so unsatisfactory as the washing of the woolen garments. The structure of wool tihrc is so different front that of linen and cotton that it should receive different treatment in the laundry. Rubbing and wringing cause the wool fibres to knot, thus giving us a thickened and shrunken fabric; therefore woolen goods should be sopped and squeezed to remove the dirt, and the water should lie pressed out. not wrung out. i.adies" Home Journal.
