Of scarlet, faced with black velvet, and in
summer black silk gowns. Gentlemen
wore coats of every variety Of color, gen,
orally the cape and collar Of different
color from the coat.
In 1888 General Washington arrived
in New York from Mount Vernon to
assume the duties Of the Presidency.
He was dressed in full suit Of Virginia

he wore the old Continental uniform, ex-

MY MOTHERS HANDS.

They're neither white nor small,
And you, know, would scarcely think
That thcy were fair nt all.
I've looked on hands whose form and hue
A sculptor's dream might be,
Yet are these agod, wrinkled hands
More beautiful to me.
Such beautiful, beautiful hands
Though heart were weary and sad,
Those patient hands kept toiling on
That children might bo glad.
almost weep, as looking back
To childhood's distant day,
l think how those hands rested not
When mine were at their play.
Such beautiful, beautiful hands
They're growing feeble now;
For time and pain have left their work
On hand and heart and brow.
Alas alas the nearing time,
And the sad, sad day to me,
When meath the daisies out of sight
lhoso hands will folded be.
But 0, beyond this shadowy damp,
Where all is bright and fair,
know full we'll those dear old hands
Will palms of victory bear;
Where crystal streams thr.' endless years
Flow over golden sands,
And where tho old grow young again,

and disappear as the grass, and the mul.
titude that throngs the world to-day
will disappear as the footsteps on the
shore. Men seldom think of the event
of death until the shadows fall across
their own pathway, hiding from their
eyes the faces of loved ones whose liv.
ing smile was the sunli hit of their ex.
istence. Death is the antagonist of life.
and the cold thought of the tomb is the
skeleton Of all feasts. We do not want
to go through the dark valley,
although its dark passages may lead to
paradise we do not want to lay down
in the damp grave, even with princess

Paper houses are among the latest

said to be as warm and durable as
houses built in the ordinary way, and
are much cheaper. The frames, doors
and floors are of wood the paper with
which the frame is covered on the out
side is heavy and compact, and made
more substantial by being covered with
mineral paint or cement. There is an
establishment in Pittsburgh that has

it much harder and tougher than

most any blow without perceptible
compression from the effects Of the
blow, while it can be worked very easily
and cheaply. A French inventor has
similar process, and he is now in this
country making arrangements for an
extensive trial of the material for ship
armor, which has been approved of by
several naval officers who have seen
it. and who express the opinion that
most valuable service may be rendered
