Stoddard in Good Hous: keeping. The furnishings of a house usually partake something of the character of its occupants; by them we may judge of their tastes, studies, tn- clinations, The solemn state-room of a well or- dered New England household was indicative of quiet, methodical living. The furniture was well inade and bought to last. ‘Ihe sofas, chairs, and tables that the briJe brought to her new home survived the christenings, weddings, and merry makings of fifty years, and were in a good state of preservation when the careful mistress was taken from their midst to her final eartuiy resting place, ‘The ornaments were few andof a permanent character—fainlly poriraits, an embroidered samp- ler, some mementoes of a sister who had died in eafly youth. If the room was notin any sense artistic, neither was its effect vulgarizing, It was the same all over the heuse. ‘Things Were What they professed to be; they were “real.” A vookcase was not a bedstead, nor a trunk a bureau, nor chair a music box, ‘They were not Rococo, nor Louis Quatorze, nor Queen Anne, but userul, sensibie aruieles adapted to the needs ‘and conditions of reir owners, ‘The men and women educated under these influences had an earnestness and sincerity of purpose that made them the backbone and sinew of a great na- ton; uor were they lacking in a true appreciation Of what 1s genulne and lofty inart.

Probably there are few chiluren of the present ay who have ever seen or even heard of the oid- fashioned tinder-box and matches Yet fity Years ago the friction match, now so universally used, had but just been invented, and did not come into generai use for many years. Before the year 1836, or thereabouts, housekeepers were obliged to Use matcues of domestic manufacture, ‘These were small pieces of white pine Wood, per- haps twice the size of our match, the ends of which had been dipped in meited brimstone. A sina.t iron skiliet In which to melt Uke brimstone was once a common Kitch utensil in many tam- ilies in New England, it not esewhere. ‘The only way to light oue of these brimstone matches was to bring {tin contact with a spark of fire, For this purpose there used to be kept in every house a Sinail Uin box filled with burat rag and this was called a tinder-box. In order to obtain a light a comumon gun-fint was struck with considerable force against a plece of steel made of convenient ‘size, Which produced a few sp irks; these, lodging upon the burnt rags, made suMcieht fire to enabie ‘be to readily light the match. ‘These smouldering rags (for, che sparks thus obtained did not produce a blaze), were afterward extinguished by 4 round Un cover called a damper. ‘To thus create fire required some experience, especially in damp weather, or with cold fingers On winter mornings, We have known people to make “a bad plece of work” with the flint andstecl and to succeed only witu great patience in “strik- inga light.” If one happened to be cross or hervous tbe chances were that be couid not Succeed at all; nor was it an infrequent sight to See Lhe good wife of the house running across the Street witb a shovel Lo borrow a shoveiful of “live coals” from a neighbor, the chimuey-smoke of Whove dwelling pruclaiméd that sue bad a fre, ‘The change to the match of commerce was one of the first of what we now consider modern couve- niences, In many families it was one of the “chil. rns chores” to prepare wood for the, matcues and to dip the ends in melted brimstone. These matches were sometimes to be bought in sho In sparsely-settled neighborhoods great care Was exercised at night by the head of the house to “keep the fire.” He took precaution that there ‘should be a good bed of “live coals” at the hour of Tetiring; these he covered with many shovelfuls of ashes to prevent them from burning out.
