The lost one to the fold hath come,

And am pardoned, reconciled,

A robe of spotless righteousness,

Yea, in the fulness of His grace,
He puts me in the children's place,

Rose Charms.

The fragrance of the rose is possessed of
such an unqualified, never-clOyng, ever fresh
sweetness, that we never can have too much of
it-never enough There is nothing that
makes lady wardrobe smell nicer than dried
roseleaves, with suspicion of lavender added
the very fact of such fragrance being
breathed from her clothes-pres would be ac-
cepted, even IN a court of law, as sufficient
evidence that the owner was neat, gentle
thOughted, and pure minded. Musk, patcho-
uli, jasmine while each of them has its admi-
rers, have no power to call up the fresh and
pleasing associations that attend upon the scent
of rose e-eaves
The perfumers, when they wish to preserve
rOse-leaves fresh until they have got a sufi-
clent quantity to dlStill or use in other ways,
are in the habit Of picking them-separating
the leaves from the stalks, and mixing them
into paste with salt in the proportion of six
pounds of leaves to one of common salt This,
put in jars, will keep any length of time.
Packing alternate layers of salt and fresh rose,
leaves away in jars is hrSt-rate, simple way
OF getting fine essence OF rose. Let the Jars
remain covered in the cellar tor a month or
two A; then put the pul into Grape, and press
the moisture from it. Bottle this essence, and
let it stand out, corked, in the sun and dew,
until it is quite clear. One part Of this es-
sence, one part of spirits of wine, and ten
parts Of spring water, will give you a fine
favored roSe-water. 4 good tncture of rose
leaves may be made by simply digesting them
In strong spirits while three parts of leaves
of just-Opened roses to four parts of sweet
olive oil, pounded in mortar, kept still tor a
week, and then expressed, will give you an ex-
cellent oil of roses
| knew an old lady who used to make a
great variety of charms amulets, &C., out of
rOseleaves, that were more fragrant and quite
as durable as those manufactured out of per
tumed clays. Her process was to fill mortar
with roses gathered with the dew on them
sprinkle over them little powdered CHINA
mon and cloves, and then bray them thorough
ly until they formed stiff brown mass of about
the consiStence of putty. This she moulded
into beads crosses, and figures OF various kinds.
and then dried them in the sun or in an oven.
They become as hard as pebbles, and retain
their sweetness long while. Fingers that
are skillful at moulding may in this way turn
out some very pretty and appropriate mantel

COP LIVER OIL VS.. CREAM.-An exchange

Con LIVER OIL VS.. CREAM-An exchange
says: Some years ago physicians had
habit of recommending every consumptve
patient to take cod liver oil. The incredible
nastiness of the dose must have constituted its
peculiar merit for, as a matter of fact, any re-
suit established by cod liver oil would have
been obtained by the patient had dcream instead
Of oil been prescribed. Suddenly this idea
seems to have dawncd upon the medical facul-
ty. As a consequence, we now have milk
cure announced as a specific for consumption.
Patients who formerly put their trust in cod
livers, are now told that the COW is their only
hope. They are made to drink vast quantities
of pure milk, instead of frequent doses of the
unspeakably vile cod-lver oil The effect is
all that can be desired. The patient who tries
the milk k-cure finds himself rapidly growing
fat, and it is also said that he becomes child.

THE DIFFERENCE-In comparing simple

The Art of Evaporation.

Some people possess an unconscious art of
evaporation which is almost a thing to admire.
We may suffer from it more than words can
tell, and yet there is u fascination in its fine
perfection; there is a feeling of inferiOrity on
the part Of the sufferer that fills the soul with
envy. But the admiration and envy are the
after surge. In the presence of the artist
that is, the tOrmenter-there is only anguish
and Indignation.
We had occasion once to make some nqui-
ries at the advertising desk OF the Daily Idiot.
We suppose the time occupied by our CONVEX
satlOn with the clerk at the desk was not more
than two minutes and thirty-fve seconds, yet
the memory OF those two minutes and thirty
five secOnds-be they more or less-we expect
10 carry with us to our grave 1t was season
OF trial and temptation; of smothered passion
and resentment of madness and misery, fol-
lowed by remOrse. We did not want to kill
the gentlemen on the other side Of the counter
No! We are natura ly of a quiet disposition,
with an uncOnquerable bias against murder.
We merely felt gentle desire to crawl through
the little glass window at which we were talk
ing seize the nape OF that long, unlOvely neck,
and incOntinenty kick the advertising clerk
OF the Ddiy Idiot.
And pray, what had he done you ask
We'll, he had " done nothing, we suppose
nor had he said much The subject matter
pie business affair; nothing of an out-Of-the-
way or exciting nature was on either side. An
observer might have failed to notice anything
that was at all uncourteous in look or lam
guage. Ii was only hat trgid air of insOlence;
that way of making an honest man feel like a
pickpocket; that inimitable art OF exa~pera-
ton
We have often wondered how such people
get along in the world. We once cherished u
theory that their days of prosperity are soon
numbered. A brief basking in the sunshine
of success, and they are cut down and perish
like the flower Of the field that withereth. 4
few years, at the most, of irritating arrogance.
and the world weares of them and fiiugs then!
aside forever. But we are mistaken Alas!
no such moral can be pointed to the tale. They
live and thrive have their salaries Increased,
rise to places of greater dignity as well as pro-
tit. 1t is an inScrutable diSpensaton We
may not even kick k-except in mild, meta
phoric way. We can only mingIe our plants
and our sympathies. We can only cherish a
vain wish that we were Great Men travelling

Of barrels were brought on deck, but the YES

The last boat was about to push off then

THE ENVELOPE NUISANCE An envelope
containing letter written by one who has the
smallpox may communicate the dreadful dis
ease. A mans heart may sink within him, if,
while struggling to get foothold in the world,
he calls at the postoffice for letter, and is
handed one with lawyers address printed in
one corner. Respectable lawyers do not need
to publish their vocation in order to get bust
ness. But Of all the inconsiderate, ruthless,
foolish, hypOcritical, dangerous, and cruel de-
vices, none exceeds that of sending letters with
a black border around them" mourning en-.
velOpes. Scarcely a reader but will confess
to an undefnable uneasiness, if not an actual
SHOCK to be kept up until the letter is opened,
and the name at the bottom deciphered. The
very sending of mourning letter to any one is
a barbarity, a brutality, a hypocrisy, and
lie. True grief detests display; the deeper
the sorrow, the more intense is the desire to
shun observation, to shrink within itself, to
shut out all creation. Sun.
