worked out by q study OF all the eondi-

practical skill and judgment. Re-

which converts Investments without in

resource tor redemption is that furn-

Point D'Alencon L aoe.

1t Is estimated that there are 800, 600
lace makers in Europe, OF whom nearly
one-half are employed in France. AL
most all of the latter work at home. Or
the French laces the most noted is the
point D'Alencon, which has had wide
celebrity for more than two centuries,
aud has been styled the queen OF lace.
It 10 made entirely by hand with fine
needle or parchment pattern, in small
pieces which are aiterward united by
invisible seams. The firmness and SO.
lidity of the texture are remarkable.
Horsehair is often introduced along the
edga to give firmness.
Although the workmanship Of this lace
has always been Of great beauty, the de-
signs in the older specimens were sell
uom copied from nature. This circum-
stance gave marked advantage to the
laces OF Brussels, which represented
dowers and other natural designs with
high degree OF accuracy. The defect.
however, has disappeared in the point
D'Alencon of recent manufacture; at the
Paris Exposition OF 1867 were speci
mems containing admirable copies ol
natural flowers, intermixed with grasses
and ferns. Owing to its elaborate con.
struction, this lace is seldom seen il
large pieces. A dress made OF poini
D'Alencon, the production OF Bayeux,
consisting of two fiounces and trim
mings, was exhibited at the Exposition
Of 1867, the price of which was 8j,00t
francs. 1t required forty women seven
years to complete 1t.

The Marriages of Great Men.

Byron married Miss Milbank to get

Robert Burns married farm girl with
whom he iell in love while they worked
together in plowed field..- He was ir-
regular in his life, and committed the
most serious mistakes in conducting his
domestic affairs.
Milton married the daughter OF coun-
try squire, but lived with her only a
short time. He was an austere literary
recluse, while she was a rosy, romping
country lass that could not endure the
restraint imposed upon her, so they sep
arated. Subsequently, however, they
returned, and they lived tolerably hap
py.
were cousins, and about the only exam
pIe in the long run of English monarchs
wherein the martial vows were sacredly
observed, and sincere affection existed.
Shakespeare loved and welded a
farmers daughter. She was faithful to
her vows, but we could hardly say the
same OF the bard himself. Like most OF
the great poets, he showed too little dis
crinlination in bestowing his affection
upon the other sex.
Washington married woman with
two children. 1t is enough TO say that
she was worthy OF him, and they lived
as married folks should--in perfect har.
mony.
John Adams married the daughter Of
Presbyterian clergyman. Her father
objected on account of John being a
lawyer. He had bad opinion Of the
morals OF the profession.
John Howard. The great philanthro
pist, married his purse. She was alto.
gether beneath him in social life and in
Ielleetual capacity, and besides this
was filty-tWO years old, while he was
twenty-fye. He would not take s'no'
for an answer, and they were married
and lived happily together until she
died, which occurred two years alter
wards.
Peter the Great married q Russian
peasant. She made an excellent wife
and sagacious empress.
Humboldt married poor girl because
be loved her. OF course they werI
happy.
It is not generally known that Andrew
jackson married lady whose HUSBAND
was still living. She was an uneduca
ted but amiable woman, and was devo'
tedly attached to the old warrior and
statesman.
John q. Calhoun married his cousin
and their children fortunately were nei
ther diseased nor idi0tic, but they did
not eyince the talent Of the great State
Rights advocate. 4

WIDE AWAKE for February is a
very noticeable number of this rapid
ly-growing magazine for the children
and young folks. The engravings
are unusually fine. Of the two
serials, "The Cooking Club" by Ella
Farman, the editor, is full of deeper
wisdom than commonly goes to the
making of juvenile story, while
"Young Rick by Miss Eastman, is
delightful. But the two distinguish
ing features OF Vide Awake this
month arc the long letter in the
"Poets' Homes" series, relative to
Mrs. A. ID. I. Whitney, and the in
itial paper of the Behaving" series.
The latter is prepared by the author
of "The Ugly Girl Papers" 1t is
not made up Of stale injunc,ions and
Chesterfeldian maxi,ns, but is thor

FROM DURANT.

How can they?" This il the ques-
ton asked here concerning the prices
reported to be paid in Upton for Barley
during the last two weeks. We under.
stand that large quantities OF this grain
are being drawn to Upton by farmers
| living five or six miles northwest of us
and that it is sold at prices that will pay
for the drawing. And still the question
"How can they pay such prices?" hasn't
been answered.
And now the musical voice OF the ir.
repressible auctioneer denotes the re-
turn of the annual migrating season,
and the guide-posts and fence corners
are blossoming in anticipation OF huge
crop Of ten per cent. il not paid at ma
turity" The colleague of the auction
eer, the paper barber" will then start
on his eryand of mercy, and surely "he
will have his reward"
