TASTE IN HOUSEHOLD FURNITURE.

In very interesting lecture which Car
dinal Wiseman once delivered In England, ,
he pointed out to his audience that the old
vases and cups and boxes and other OBJ
Ijects which were kept carefully under
glass in museums, which were so grace
tul and refined in form, and were treas
ured by US as precious relics of an extinct
art, were the ordinary vessels of the uses
and conveniences OF the life of the times
from which they descended. Is there any
good reason that the wash-bowls and
pitchers and jugs and jars of old Rome
and Athens should be beautiful, and ours,
designed for the same purposes, clumsy
and ugly? And if we can not invent new
forms of beauty for ourselves, may we not
copy pleasing models rather than unpleas-
ing? Whether we 60 back for our model
year or a thousand years, there is really
no need of selecting an ugly one. So In
the cost of finishing and furnishing the
house, the pumpkin in Cinderella's kitch-
en- did not more surely hold the gilded
coach, nor her own "filthy rags the most
magnificently jeweled robes, than every
little dollar is full of neatness, fitness and
beauty, five have the gift of seeing them
and extracting them.
1t is subtle gift, indeed, for it is taste.
All the dollars in the world will not buy
it. 1t is like that ear for music which
those who have it not deride and deny.
Yet good taste is, not the first, but the
second, household magician. The first is
good temper. Good temper will make
hard stiff, horse-hair chair delightful; but
good taste, without good temper, will
make the most luxurious and beautiful
lounge uncomfortable. The two COM
bined make the perfect household. The
minor magician, indeed, has one advan-
tage over the other, and it is that she de-
velops her. Good taste promotes good
temper, but good temper no more pro-
notes good taste than the smile of the
gardener ripens Strawberries. On the
other hand, good temper has an advan-
tage. 1t can not buy good taste, but it
may buy its works. You may not know
mushrooms from toad stools. But if an
honest man who, as you know, can dis.
tinguish them, offers to sell you mush-
rooms, you may buy In tolerable conf
dence that your fillet will not be garnisked
with poison. 1t is so with the mystery of
household art. You may not perceive the
harmony of colors, nor the superior
grace of one form to another. But if
person whom you know to be an expert
assures you that this paper and that car
pet are harmonious, and that this or that
table is graceful and pleasing, if you really
do not know. why should you not trust
himP Mrs. Potiphar perennially shows
her confidence in Mr.. Narcotic by giving
him carte e-6lanche to redecorate and fur
nish. She does it, perhaps, quite as much
because of his fashion as of his taste. But
what she does expensively for fashion.
may nat you do economically for taste 4?
In word, it is the apparent mission of
what is known as household art to show
that cheap and nasty are not synonymous.

TIMES.

GOOD times, and bad times, and all times pass
over"
Then cheerily bend to the oar;
Through depth and through shallow, through calm
and through tempest,
The bark is still nearing the shore.
Soft woos the zephyr and low laughs the ripple >
Warm glows the rich light Of the sun,
But oh, at his brightest he slopes to the west Ssrl
The good time is over and done.
Black rolls the billow, white flashes the breaker,
Fierce and bitter the pitiless blast,
But of its own fury the storm sinks exhausted;
The bad time Is ever and past.
Our "times" we can neither foretell them nor rule
them;
Let us face them, however they come;
Pray God for one true hand to clasp through the
hours,
Till night brings us haven and home.
-lTinsley's Magazine.
A FAREWELL FROM THE SEA.
The tide Is up, the breezes blow,
Gently the smtten waters swell;
But 'ere to Southland realms go,
Dear heart, FAREWELL
Your midnight eyes SO true, so pure
The souls mild starlight; who can tell
If eer in the tenderest truth once more,
Their love shall greet me Child, farewelll
Igo to one whose Orient face
Matches your own clear beautys spell
Dark eye for eye, soft grace for grace;
So, may never lose thee quite,
Albeit the tear.drops dim my sight,
In breathing thus-farewellL
Sweet child, farewell

frequently becoming responsible for it.
Marshal CAMPBELL, like Miss SWEET,
