HcW 10 Preserve Autumn Leaves.

The leaves Of Autumn are beginning
to assume the most beautiful tints-
crimson, russell, orange gold and yarie-
gated colors, and the question now
presents itself, which is the best method
of preserving them? OF late years the
preparing and shipping Of rare speci-
mems Of leages from American forests
to Europe, in boxes, has assumed the
form of trade, to considerable
extent, and the fancy shops in tho
large cities are each fall supplied with
the finest varieties that can be found.
The process of preservation is simple:
A thick blotting pad, some sheets Of
drawing paper, camels hair brush
and some amber varnish are all tho
necessary appliances, save q thick
book to press the leaves between the
blotting pad so as TO extract the mois.

placed upon the paper. Already tho
leaves are turning, and the ivy
especially is in proper condition. The
poisonous plant makes the prettiest
leaves, and is not so dangerous but

Are MOles n Pest /!

There is a great difference OF
opinion as to this question. Our
own is that the mole is harmless as
Il rnle-sometim,sit damages lawns
and gardens in pursuit of its food,
which usually is the earth worm.
If it should go through a hill Of corn
and iujure it by loo ening the root
let's; it is still in pursuit of the earth
worm, which is, in dry times, found
about the roots of corn and other
vegetables, grass, &C., more album
dainty than elsewhere. So far as
our observations extend, We have
never known the mole to cat vege-
table matter. 1t would seem to be,
strictly carnivorous animal. And
on this head here is something to
the point: Mr.. Weber, one of the
saranS Of Zurich, Switzerland, re-
Gently examined the stomachs of a
number of moles caught in diHerent
loca tiles, but failed to discover
ther,i the slightest vestige Of
plants or roots; whereas they were
filled by the remains of earthworms.
He shut up several Of these animals
in a box containing earth and sod
with growing grass, and u small
case of grub or earthworms. In
nine days two moles devoured 34l
white worms, 1913 earthworms, rs
caterpillars, and dead mouse. Fed
with a mixed diet of raw meat and
vegetables, the moles ate the meat
and left the plants; and when vege-
tables exclusively were dealt out to
them, in tw%enty-four hours both
died of starvation ~ ermantown

Babies.

We love the little babies, and love
everybody that loves little babies.
No man has music il his soul who
don't love babies. Babies are made
to be loved, especially girl babies
when they + grown up. A man
isn't worth IL shuck who hasn't II
baby, and the same rule applies to
women. A baby is Il spring day in
winter /; a ray of sun,hile in frigid
winter, and if it is healthy and good
natured, and you + sure that it is
yours, it is a bushel Of sunshine, no
matter how cold the weather. A
man cannot be a hopeless case so
long us he loves babies, IN at a
time. We love babies all over, no
matter how dirty they IRE.
Babies were made to be dirty.
We love babies because they are
babies, and because their mothers
were lovcable and lovely women.
Our love Of babies is only bounded
by the number of babies in the
world, We always have s%orrowful
feelings for women who have no ba-
bies, and don't expect any.
Women look down-hearted who
have no babies, and men who have
no babies always grumble and drink
whiskey, and stay out at night try
ing to get music IN their souls but
they can't come it. Babies I ba-
bies, and nothing can take their
places. Pianos play out, and beau
ty plays ont, and sweet temper
plays out, and good living plays
out, unless there is Il baby in the
house. We have tried it ; we know,
and we say there is nothing like a
baby.-Erchanye.

Stingy Churches.

Gratuitous preaching makes sci,
fish, ignorant, and indolent church
es. A congregation votes its own
destruction when it decides to "get
along" with II preacher who costs
them little or nothing and earns just
us little as he gets. A cheap min
lister is bad economy. Churches
which adopt this policy are invari-
ably in the background in all their
operation. The congregations are
small, and slrus gle along late to the
place of worship, the singing ismis-
cradle; the prayer-meetlngs thin and
dull, the Sunday Schools, if they
have any, Of little account, unless
conducted by outsiders, the houses
of worship are badly warmed and
not half-llghted, the communion
vessels are bottles and common
they do nothing for mis-
take but few religious papers,
are'wl,hout books or musical instru-
ments in their families, their chill
dren run wild in sin and folly, and
general disregard of religion pre-
walls. In one thing such churches
excel-that is, in quarrels. They
are usually split into factions, and
abound in committees, councils, dis
add exclusions. They fight
zach other when they ought to be
working to save souls, exclude mem
when they ought to be gather
them in, destroy:churches when
hey might build them up. Hun
lreds of such churches can be found
ii over the country, while hundreds
ave already become extinct, died !

mess in tie pews.-Baptist Lnt0n. :

Raw Silk.

Recently q correspondent made
inquiry concerning a market for raw
silk in the United States. Since
then we have seen the following in
the Boston C~ul,ivator, and insert IT
for his benetit-other5 also may
have had their at ention turned in
the same direction.
The silk manufacturing interest
in this county is assuming immense
proportions, and bids fair to rival
the cotton interts st in extent. There
are numerous manufactures in this
State; New Jersey has lG factories
and $4,000 spindles; 1900 operatives
find employment in the silk manu-
factories of Philadelphia, while S.
600, 600 are invested in this busi-
ness in Connecticut. Cheney
Brothers in Hartford alone are
turning ont daily 1900 yards of
dress silk and 1000 yards Of other
dress goods into the manufacture of
which silk enters, besides large
quantities of ribbons and sewing
silks. The quantity of silk import
ed to meet the wants of this con-
stantly-increasing industry must
amount to many millions yearly,
and if it can be successfully cultiva-
ted in this country, incredible sums
will be saved.

Sick.RO0m Hints,

A fck-room should have a pleas
ant aspect. Light is essential.
Blinds and curtains may BE- provi-
ded to screen the eyes too weak to
bear full day, but what substitute
makes up for the absence Of that
blessed sunshine without which life
languishes? The Walls should be Of
cheerful tint; if possible, sort ofout-
door glimpse should lie visible from
the bed or chair where the invalid
lies,..if it is bnt the top ofahee and IL
bitofsky. Eyes WHICH have been trav-
cling for long dull days over tho
pattern Of the paper hangings, till
each bud and leaf quirl is familiar
and hateful, brighten with pleasure
as the blind is raised. The mind,
wearied of the grinding battle with
pain and self, hnds unconscious re-
freshment ia tue new Interest. Ah'
there is II BIRDS shadow, fitting
across the pane. The tree
top sways and trembles with soft
rustlings-a white cloud floats
dreamingly over the blue,-and
now, oh delight and wonder, the
bird himself comes in sight and
perches visibly on the bough, dress
ing his feathers and quivering forth
a few notes of song. All the world,
then, is not lying in bed because we
are shut out-that life which has
nothing to dowithpiIls and potions,
tip-toe movements, whispers, and
doctors boots creaking i'll the en-
try-may cause the hot tears to
rush suddenly into Il eyes, it does
us good, and we begin to say with u
certain tremulous thrill Of hope:
When | 60 ont again | shall do
so and 20.
All, if nurses, if friends knew how
i,ksome, how positively harmful, is
| the SGmcneSs of q sick-room, surely
love and skid would devise rene
dies. lit were only bringing in a
blue flower to-day, and II pink one
tomorrow; hanging a fresh picture
to vary the monotony oftho wall, or

iLite iellef. Sma things and SIN
gle things suffice. To see many OF
his surroundings changed at once
coniuses m invalid; to have one
little novelty at a time to vary the
point of observation, stimulates and
cheers. Give him that, and you do
more and better than if you filed
the apartment with fresh objects.
