Simplicity Of Dress,

Female lovcliness never appears to
so good advantage as when set off by
simplicity of dress. No artist ever
decks his angels with towering feath-
ers and gaudy jewelry; and our dear
human angles-if they would make
good their title to that name-should
carfully avoid ornaments which prop
erly belong to Indian squaws and
African princesses. These tinselrics
may serve to give effect on the stage or
upon ballroom floor, but in daily
life there is no substitute for the
charm of simplicity. A vulgar
taste is not to be disguised by gold and
diamonds. The absence of true taste
and real refinement Of delicacy cannot
be compensated for by the possession
of the most princely fortune. Mind
measures gold, but gold cannot meas
ure mind. Through dress the mind
may be read, as through the delicate
tissue the lettered page. A modest
woman will dress modestly; a really
refined and intellectual woman will
bear the marks of careful selection
and faultless taste.

The Problem OF Mans Mission.

1t would indeed be strange if Free
Masonry did not keep pace with the
progress of intellectual development,
with the Improvement of the age in
the useful arts, in mental and prac-
teal philosophy, and the working out
and elucidation of the great problem,
the mission of man. Free Masonry
has to do with man, the highest crea-
ton of the Supreme Mind-man indi-
vidually and man in the aggregate
and through the exemplifcation and
influence of it's principles and pre-
cepts lead the way in promoting the
advancement and elevation of the
race. Like the silent operations Of
nature, which, although unseen,
clothe the field with verdure, cause
the blossoms to unfold and the fruit
to ripen, or through the creations of
animalcula, scarcely perceptible, of
which islands are formed, so Free
Masonry, unobtrusively and in quiet,
through the influence of the practical
virtues of its disciples, has been the
means of propagating an enlightened
philosophy, by which man has learned
to subdue and govern his passions,
anu dCCOIu W tudt NlICu
claims for himself. That civilization
owes much to the humanizing prin-
ciples of Free Masonry can not be
questioned Indeed, it would be diff
cult to assign cause of greater or
equal potency in harmonizing man,
who, with diverse interests, dis
similar dispositions, and peculiarities
arising from the different organic
structure of each, which. in an uncul-
tivated state, or where the influence
of Free Masonry has not reached, is
exhibited in the antagonism of man
to his fellow man; but wherever Free
Masonry manifests itself, and wher-
ever the civilized man goes to plant
his standard for the purpose of max
ing the soil subservient to his pur-
poses, there Free Masonry goes also.
and through the influence of its
teachings impels him to walk erect in
the majesty of his manhood as be-
ing destined for the highest purposes.
In working out the problem Of his
mission, the Free Mason who walks
onward, ever onward, toward the goal
of perfection, is never off, but is con-
tinually advancing from lower to
higher, always travelling out Of the
sphere in which he is, onward and
upward to better, the point within
the center being his aim. Thus the
true Free Mason always keeps pace
with the progressive developments oi
man; but those who are contented
with the mere ceremonial Of Free
Masonry, who have not the disposi.
ton to pass out of the outer court OF
to acquire the knowledge necessary te
comprehend the symbolism of the
architecture of the interior Of The
temple, have no conception Of man.

Ifyou would have flowers bloom in
winter, choose some of the most pow
erful buds of the flowers you would
prcserve-such as are latest in blow
ing and ready to open; cut them off
with pair Of scissors, leaving to each,
if fpossible, piece of the stem three
inches long. Cover the stem immedi-
ately with sealing wax; and when the
buds are little shrunk and withered,
wrap each of them up separately in a
piece of paper, perfectly clean and dry,
and put them into a dry box or draw
er. and they will keep without cor
upting. In winter or any other time,
when you would have the flowers
bloom, take the buds at night and cut
off the end Of the stem sealed with
wax and put them into water into
which a little nitre or salt has been
diffused, and the mex day you will
have the pleasure of seeing the buds
open and expand themselves, and the
flowers display their most lovely colors
and breathe their agreeable odors.

THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE
WORLD.
BY WILLIAM ROSS WALLACE.

BY WILLIAM ROSS WALLACE.
Blessings on the hand of Woman!
Angels guard its strength and grace
In the palace, cottage, howell,
O, no matter where the place!
Would that never storms assailed it;
Rainbows ever gently curled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Infancy s the tender fountain;
Power may with Beauty flow;
Mothers first to guide the streamlets;
From them souls unresting grow,
Grow on for the good or evil,
Sunshine streamed or darkness hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Woman, how divine your mission
Here upon our natal sod!
Keep, o keep theyoung soul open
Always to the breath of God!
All true trophies of the ages
Are from Mother Love impearled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hard that rocks the world.
Darling girls, with Eden's music,
Ringing yet in each young heart.
Learn and treasure household knowledge
Precious in life's future part
When you'll, too, exulting mother
Bravely boyed and gently girled,
Feel the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Blessings on the hand of Woman.
Fathers, sons and daughters cry.
And the sacred song is mingled
With the worship of the sky.
Mingles where no tempest darkens,
Rainbows eyermore are curled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.

The Letter l..

Jean Ingelow has written a poem
about the letter l.. We want to say
few words in prose about the letter l.
The printers tell us it is just the
smallest, thinnest letter in the ease
But ..ut of the ease how big it is
Ho, ,g it is in the mouth Of the
eg ii How its echoes roll out from
Il q .ps of the political demagogue!
how it crops out in the magazine arti-
Gle! How even in the pulpit it gets
between the speakers subject and the
people he is addressing, and stays
there. There is nothing so opaque as
I-nothins so pretentious and yet so
thin and raspy and insignificant as
this same personal pronoun vowel.
Judging by the completeness with
which, in the lips of preacher, it
screens his hearers from the divine
truth, we judge it the most effective
screen in the world. 1t is better than
glass, better than wood, better than
iron, and better than brass, of which
itsis largely composed. If you are
suffering from the warmth of your
fire, put a big | between yourself and
! the blaze. 1t is strange. this weak
ness of the egotist, and it would be
stranger, did we not know but too
we'll the shallowness of some people.
You may look down many and many

less-surprisingly so. A mud-puddle

just wait till they settle little, and
you can probe through them with

well to remember that the wisest
thing they can do is to drop the third

with wet eyes. Was that lady in a
soft, gray merino dress, wearing an
embroidered collar, and gold ear
drops, his mother? That pretty woman
suriy it was, for Nettie was feeling Of
her face, and was sparkling all over and
was saying, rs this you; mother? Why,
where have you been?"
oh, mai said Tom, holding her
around the neck as though she might
get away, why, where did you go, and
when did you come back?' Poor lit
tie ones, how proud they were of the
household drudge in her new and
beautiful transformation.
But this is not all. Before the first
cold blast of winter came, steps were
taken to save and tighten the labors
of the feminine portion of the farmer s
household. An addition was built to
the house, new siding was put on,
and painted white. New windows
were added and green blinds, and a
wide, long, rOomy porch. Closets
were put in all the rooms; the old YER
miny bedsteads split up and used for
kindlings; new chairs were bought
including a new rocking and sewing
,, chair for mother; a new sewing ma
chine that was love Of a friend; the
door yard was paled in, and the calves
and colts were kept where they be-
longed, and evergreen trees and flow
ering shrubbery and rose bushes
made beautiful the yard.
An easy chain pump took the place
of the moss covered bucket that held
as much as a churn. 1t was taken of
to the barn to put clover seed in, and
| the windlass was borne away forever
from the little arms that had tugged
at its ponderous weight with sick
! weariness many and many year
| The big we'll rope made nice swing
out under the oaks for Tom and Bel
lie and chubby little Harry.
Now that the no longer enslaved
mother has leisure to mingle with hel
growing children as teacher and com
panion and friend, they grow more
lovable and intelligent, and cling te
her like vines. They see so much in
their mother to admire and emulate

fever was the Aaron's rod that smott

heart; and to-day, growing broader
and ruddier and ripper and better

A St. Louis baggage-smasher has
come to grief. He got hold of a
sheet iron trunk, and it wouldn't t
break. He did his best on it, but to
no purpose. Had the train been a
little delayed, he would have tested it
with trip hammer or pile driver !;
but, poor man, he had to send it off
intact. His disappointment thereat
has ruined him for life. He took to
his bed from a severe attack of brain
fever, which finally subsided, leaving
him raying maniac. He is now an
inmate of mad house, with no pros
pect Of recovery. None will lament
his terrible fate, unless it be the guild
of trunk makers. He has fallen-a
sad warning to all Of his dcspoiling
persuasion.
