a son of devout old Scoth clergyman
having married without his fathers ap-
probation. the old man took occasion in
the.yery first family gathering when
the bride and groom were present to
insert his opinion of the affair in the
midst Of a prayer in this wise: 'Thou
hast added, o Lord, to our family. So
has been thy will it wad never hae
been mine. But if it is of Thee, do
Thou bless the connection. But if the
fuie hath done it out o. carnal desire,
against ~ reason and credit, may the
cauld raiu o. adversely settle in his
habitation.'

Yhitewash for Old Buildings.

A correspondent of the American
Rural Home says the following is du-
rable, and looks nearly as well as paint:
Take clean, tight barrel, and slake in
it one bushel of freshly burned lime, by
covering it with boiling water. After
it is Stacked add cold water eDough to
bring 1t to the consistency of cream OF
thick whitewash. Then dissolve in wa
ter one pound of sulphate of zinc (also
known by the common. mama of white
vitriol,) and add to the lime and water,
with one quart Of fine salt. Stir we'll
until the ingredients are thoroughly
mixed. This forms pure white. Ifa
cream color is desired, one-half pound
of yellow ochre is added.

Charles Dickens and the Blind
Children.

Talking of the pretty school mistress,
reminds me of something L heard her
telling her boys and girls one day
when they were seated about her, on
the WilluW-stumps as usual. she SAID
DO YOU rememb ber General 81,
nv dears. who once visited US in the
school rooms ?'
% yes = cried the children.
We'll, when ne took tea with me on
that afternoon, he happened to say that
his boy had just been reading the old
Curiosity Shop with great delight.
Now, as / knew that the Generals s
only son was blind, was not a little
puzzled. Probably Generals St
read my feelings in my face, for he
added:
.Did you never hear of Charles Dick
ems visit to the blind asylum where
Benny was taught? He talked with the
children, and became SO very much ln-
terested in them, that he decided to
have an edition of The Old Curiosity
Shop' printed in raised letters for their
use. Bless their hearts! They shall
find little Nell in the dark! he said,
all aglow. And so, in time, my boy
was bending over the story, as happy 9
little fellow as one could wish to see.
Did he read it easily?' asked.
80 yes, quite SOP said the General,
eheerfully. The letters, white as the
rest of the page, are raised, and are
aqout en eighth of an inch long. Ben
ny runs his finger along the lines one
by one, and understands every word.
You would think he had eyes in his
finger-tips. The sense of feeling is
Very acute, you know, when ones
sight is gone
Il like Dickens more than ever now,
said one of the boys when the school
mistress finished her story.

Chatelaine pockets are pssse.

Chatelaine pockets are pssse.
Sleeveless basques are still in vogue.
Spring calicoes are made with side
pleated waists.
Ladies' boot-heels are higher than
ever in Paris.
Velvet spencers are coming into IA
vor.
There is horrid rumor of the restora
tion of crinoline.
Long. heavy earrings, almost reach
ing to the shoulder, are the thing.
Worth's novelty is the costume all-in-
one, waist, skirt and polonaise. This is
really princesse dress, with long back
in Marguerite shape, cut in from Eng
Iish forms sloping outward on the tour
nure.
Hair, nowadays, the women twist
into knot the back Of the head; no
matter if no bigger than hickory nut,
and only takes three hairpins to hold
it.
When a woman wears her india
shawl wrong side out in order To show
that it is real, she wears il not because
of its beauty nor because of its warmth.
but to display her wealth, and that
adds very close on the vulgar.
Deep linen cuffs are now worn out
side the dress-sleeve; cut with deep
roint on the back, short in front, and
closed with three linen buttons on the
point.
Handkerchiefs with colored borders
either solid or striped ar allowable fol

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, SO that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for q HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found 80 desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.
