REASONS FOB DRESSING PLAINLY ON THE
LORDS DAY.. 1t would lessen tie bur-
dens Of many who now find it hard to
maintain their places in society.
2. 1t would lessen the force or the
temptations which often lead men to
barter honor and honesty for display.
8. If there was less strife in dress at
church, people in moderate circumstances
would be more inclined to attend.
4. Universal moderation in dress at
church would improve the worship by the
removal Of many wandering thoughts.
S. 1t would enable all classes of people
to attend church better in unfavorable
weather.
6. 1t would lessen, on the part of the
rich, the temptation to vanity.
7. 1t would lessen, on the part of the
poor, the temptation to be envious and
malicious
8. 1t would save valuable time on the

9. 1t would relieve our means from a
serious pressure, and thus enable us to do
more for good enterprises.

PRESERVATION o1 LEATHER.-The fol-
lowing valuable hints in regard to the
preservation of leather, we copy from the
Shoe and Leather Reporter:
The extreme heat in which most men
and women expose boots and shoes during
the winter, deprives leather of it's vitality,
rendering it liable to break and crack
When leather becomes so warm as to give
off the smell of leather, it is singed. Close
rubber shoes also destroy the life of leath-
err. All varnishes and all backing con-
tanning the properties of vanishing,
should be avoided.
Shoe leather is greatly abused. Per-
sons know nothing or care less about the
kind Of material used than they do about
the polish produced Vitriol backing is
used until every particle of oil in the leath-
er is destroyed. To remedy this abuse,
the leather should be washed once a
month with warm water; and when about
half dry, coat of oil and tallow should
be applied, and the boots set aside for a
day or two This will renew the elastic
ity and life in the leather, and when thus
used, upper leather will seldom crack OF
break.
Don't wash harness in water and with
soap. No harness is ever so soiled that a
damp sponge will not remove the dirt.
When harness loses its luster and turns
brown, which almost any leather will do
after long exposure to the air, the harness
should be given new coat of grain black.
Before using this grain black, the grain sur
face should be thoroughly washed with
potash water until all the grease is killed,
and after the application OF the grain black,
oil and tallow should be applied to- the sur.
face. This will not only 'fastcn the color,"
but make the leather flexible. Harness
which is grained can be cleaned with ker-
osene or spirits of turpentine, and no harm
will result if the parts affected are washed
and boiled Immediately afterward.

- Life is short!- The poor pittance of
seventy years is not worth being villain
for What matters it if your neighhor
lies in splendid tomb? Sleep you with
innocence. Look behind you through the
tract of time> vast desert lies upon the
retrospect; through this desert have your
fathers journeyed on, until wearled with
years and sorrows, they sunk from the
walks of man. You must leave them
where they fell, and you are to go little

bursting forcibly from revolving and

The SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD.
The first of these wonders were the
Pyramids of Egypt. The second was the
Mausolcum, or tomb, built by Artemissia,
for her husband, Masolus, King of Caria,
in Asia Minor, at Halicarnassus, 3. q.
$50. 1t is now in the British Museum,
where it was placed in 1857. The third
was the Temple of Diana, at Ephesus,
which was four hundred and fty-fve
feet long, and two hundred and twenty
five feet broad. 1t was destroyed by fire
on the night Of the birth of Alexander
the Great, by a man named Erostratus,
who perpetratcd the reprehensible act in
order, it is said, that his name might be
handed down to posterity. The fourth
comprised the walls of the hanging gar
dens of the city OF Babylon. These gar
dens were raised in terraces, one above
another, on the tiers of arches, and reach
ed on flights of steps. Flat stones were
laid on the arches, and these were cemen-
ted together by bitumen, and covered by
thick sheets of lead earth of sufficient
quantity to allow trees and shrubs to
grow was spread on the lead. The gar
dens were five in number, and in the form
of an amphitheatre. The fifth was the
enormous brazen image of Appolo at
Rhodes which was erected B. G. 200, and
was thrown down by an earthquake about
seventy years afterwards. 1t stood across
the entrance to the harbor, with each foot
on the extremity of a mole. The sixth
was Phidias' statue of Jupiter Olympus,
which was thirty nine feet high, and was
made entirely Of gold and ivory. The
seventh was the Pharos, or lighthouse,
built by Ptolemy Philadelpbus, King Of
Egypt, which was built of white marble,
at the entrance to the harbor of Alexan-
dria; and light was kept constantly on
top of it to aid tie sailors of the Mediter-
ranean in steering for the bay.

How TO MANAGE KEROSENE LAMPS

How TO MANAGE KEROSENE LAMPS
As kerosene is now so generally used in
city and in country, the following direc-
tions for the management of the lamps,
which we clip from an exchange, may
prove interesting and save life and prop
erty:
Our ears arc every day panied by ac
counts of kerosene lamps exploding and
killing, or soaring for life, men, women,
and children. A simple knowledge of the
infammable nature of the fluid would
probably put stop to nearly all the ac-
cidents. AS the oil burns down in the
lamp, highly infammable gas gathers
over it's surface, and as the oil decreases
the gas increases. When the oil is nearly
consumed, a slight jar will often inhame
the gas, and an explosion is sure to fol-
low, dealing death and destruction. A
bombshell is not more to be dreaded
Now if the lamp is not allowed to burn
more than half way down, such accidents
are impossible. Always fill your lamps
every morning, then You never need toar
any explosion. Great economy can be
practiced in regard to the wicks. There
is usually one.third of wick wasted
By sewing one wick to this unburnt end,
and inserting the same i. e., the same
piece, into the lamp tube, you can burn
moro Of it; but bo sure to take it out be-
fore the part that joins the wick enters
the tube. Now turn the wick on the
other edge and burn down TO the joined
edges. Thus saving on both wicks is
secured. To bo sure, the saving is small,
but the old adage is very true: "a penny
saved is penny earned" Half of a TEA
spoonful of salt added to the oil of lamp
which holds pint, will take away the
disagreeable odor sometimes apparent,
and, it is said, prevent the formation Of
that dangerous gas. 1t is simple RENE
dy, easily applied. 1t is also asserted
that the salt makes tho oil last much
longer but wc have only hearsay evi-
dence concerning it.. Kerosene is the
best antdote for severe burn or scald
Immerse the injured part IN cold water
for moment; dry with soft cloth, TAX
ing care not to rub at all. Then bathe in
kerosene, and terrible pain ceases. We
know of little child who put his foot
and leg into pail of nearly boiling wa
ter. The above remedy was applied, and
in few minutes the childs screams ccas-
ed. We know not of the philosophy Of
the matter, but we de- know that is the
most eficacious remedy for severe burns
or scalds in the materia medica.
