If they persist in throw- ing off the bed-clothes at nignt, probavly they are covered too warm, thougn growa persous sleeping with them may not suffer ip the same way. Little children need more clothing in the daytime than in the night, (a8 compare with pews poets) because ley are nearer the floor, often sitting upon it, or vpon low seats, while their beds are usually a8 bigh as any others. Tue ther- mometer shows & great difference between the temperature of a room at the floor and at tbree or fouror more feet from it, as warm air rises, and cold air sinks. CUTTING PATCHWORK.

Patch- work is '¥8 legitimate work for ebildren, invalids, and graudmothers. Lit- Ue fingers learn to sew more easily én the sbort seams of a block, than on ordinary garments. But I started with the intention of suggesting that patch: work should be cut by @ Un or stiff pasteboard pattern, and not by one of thin paper, or by placing one block by auotwer. CHICKENS FIT TO EAT. Don’t imagine that it makes no difference how your Thankegiving chickens have been brought up. "t Suppose that they will be good anyhow. Chickens have been carefal. Giessed, deliciously stuffed, assiduously basted, and tenderly roasted, and yet they Werenot fit toeat. There was a flavor about them that no soda riusings could cleanse, and no a conceal. These were chickens that had picked up their living around pig-sties and other unclean places. A chicken may be spoiled in dreseing it to cook. If killed with a full crop, and allowed to lie for hours before it is “drawa”, (or re- Meved of its internal organs), it gets au un pleasant flavor. Fowis should be caught Snd shut up without food for twelve hours or more before they are beheaded. Then the crop and intestines will beempty, aud the task of picking and dressing it will be great- ly lessened. Old fowls are not necessarily tough—only cook them long enough. Taey are more tender twenty-four hours af-er they are Killed, toan if eaten immediately. Graham Custard (lect 4 and good.
