A Beautiful COnnterpane.

To make beautiful counterpane for
the bed, with very little expense, buy
two and three quarters yards of fine
unbleached ten-quarter sheeting; fasten
in quilting frames in the same manner
as bed quilts were fastened in former
days. Then, with common sail needle
or very coarse yarn needle, draw candle
wicking through the cloth in any design
previously drawn upon the cloth with a
lead pencil. To follow the lines of the
flowers, stars, wheels, crosses or what
ever the designs may be, draw or sew
the wicking through with the coarse
needle in small stitches, leaving it quite
loose on the upper side in little uniform
loops. When the pattern has all been
worked il in this way by the wicking cut
all the loops on the upper side with
sharp scissors. Rather q homely bed
spread it now looks to be, but take it
from the frames and shake it we'll, and
you will be surprised at your own work.
The wicking will form itself into little
tassels, which, however, may need a
little trimming and evening with the
scissors if this is the first attempt; after
little experience the stitches can be
made very even and true. But how
yellow and frail it looks. Then dip il
in cold water and lay it on the snow or
grass to bleach, two or three days, OF
until very white. After this the cloth
will be sufficiently thick and the tassels
of wicking shrunken in till they are firm
as embroidery and the appearance upon
! the bed is attractive and beautiful.
Those who do not know how they are
made would never suspect from what
ordinary materials they were put togeth
er. If the stitches are put in at the dis
tance of an inch apart all over the sur
face, in uniform way, the whole has
very pleasing effect when finished, ant
it is well for inexperienced persons t.
try this way at first and the more com
plicated pattern afterward.

Wasted Time.

Many odd bits of time are allowed to
to go to waste which, if improved, would
produce astonishing results. History is
is full of examples of those who have
risen to eminence by simply using in
proper manner leisure moments. A
person can become proficient in a sol
ence or language by snatching fifteen
or twenty minutes day and applying
himself to it. How often is heard the
remark ST would like to read that
book, or become acquainted with that
language or science. but I have not the
time" And yet those very persons
spend three hours day at their meals
There are few, if there are any, persons
who have not half an hour day which
they may call their own. That half
hour rightly used throughout the year
will store the mind with large amount
Of useful knowledge. Let no one, then,
falsely assert, 81 have not the time,
but speak the truth and say. II am
too lazy"

Memories.

Memories on which we dwell
Are they those that, well defined
By their crystal clearness, quell
Saddest longings Of the mind?
Or which, softly indistinct,
Full Of shadows as in dreams.
BY their mystic beauty link
Reality TO that which seems?
Faces on our way through life,
Haunting every step we take,
Some that help us through the strife,
Some we love for their own sake
Are they those on which are stamped
Energy Of thought and will;
Action that is never cramped,
Working always, restless still?
Rather those DER which are thrown
Cleans Of mellow, tender light,
Winged grace Of heart and soul,
Charmed sense Of conscious right.
Artists that we CHOOSE apa4t
From the few who high are set,
just because their lesser art
Quivers o'er a dead regret
Are they those who. firm OF hand,
Try the veil of life to raise,
Though they know the spirit-land
Never may reward their gaze2
Rather those who by touch,
Or subtle, silver CLEAN,
Show the sunlight thoughts that rush
Out of some fantastic dream.
Chords from out some well-worn strain,
Struck at random when alone.
Often shadow forth pain
Drifting into deeper tene.
Voices, musical and sweet,
Sunlit with emotion rife,
Like the touch Of angel-feet,
Thrill across our inner life.

The Holaey-Bee.

-.
Rhs ahOney-bee is the emblem of
order and industry. The queen is
the mother OF the whole hive, and
her eggs become males, females and
workers, or neuters, which last make
the combs and cells and collect the
honey. The queen produces some
thousands Ofworkers, and then males
which theaworkers kill at the end of
summer. The workers attend the
queen with anxious respect. If she
die, they raise a new one by various
arts from a working worm. Two
queens cannot live in the same hive,
and one is destroyed. Tho females
or workers have a sting, but the
males or drones mono. In proper
tomato size the queen bee is eight
and one-half, the males seven and
the workers six. A queen will lay
200 eggs daily for so or 60 days, and
the eggs are Matched in three days
The workers are five days in the
worm state, and in 20 days they be-
come bees. The males are six or
seven days in the worm state, and
"a days in becoming perfect bees. A

the Court which has released Anderson

Homes for the Unemployed.

The following is an extract from
an extended article, in the New
York Tribune, upon the agricultural
and mineral resources and climate of
West Virginia:
To a poor man at the North who of
necessity must begin farming at the
beginning-by clearing off timber
lands-West Virginia offers certain
advantages over the West and South.
First-It is near and easy of access.
The cost of transporting a family
and their goods from New York to
Wheeling, would be about one fourth
that to Chicago. Time required via
the Pennsylvania or Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, from sixteen to eigh-
teen hours.
Second-The timber land lies I'M
usually high, above the reach of ma
laria. 1t begins to pay soon, being
either pasturage or upland alluvium.
This latter soil, which is the sccumu-
lation for ages in the valleys of wash
lhgs from the slopes, covers thirty per
cent of the whole area.
Third-Although West Virginia
was part of Southern State until the
war,the Northern settler will find there
no hostile social prejudices to over
come-a matter of first Importance in
choosing home. The majority of
the inhabitants were loyal; being, by
descent, habits and temperament,
much mole nearly allied to the farm
ing population of Pennsylvania than
to the people of East Virginia.
Fourth-The State offers the pccu-
liar advantage of an immense capital

Editors NeU Domtnion:-
The pupils are now reviewing the
work OF the past and present terms, for
general examination. Some are too las
zy to study thoroughly, and rather than
apply themselves in making class re-
view will run the risk of failure on ex-
animation day, or else like towards
dodge the examination.
think every pupil who wish to be a
scholar should give particular attention
to those reviews. Merely going through
the text books will not make us scholars.
1t any of us should think SO we will
find out our mistake when we converse
with people who are will informed.
We think we need new desks and
other things in some of the rooms; also
new walk faom the school room door
to the street, and board walk in front
of the school yard. Should the School
Board give us any or all Of those things
we will be truly thankful.

EASTERN AFFAIRS.
Russia Demands that the British
Fleet Quit the Sea of MamOra.

LONDON, March pa special from
st. Petersburg says that rumors are
in circulation that Russia has demand
ed that the British fleet quit the Sea
of Marmora at once. The correspond
ent has reason to believe that these
reports, although exaggerated, are not
entirely unfounded, and that Russia is
making or is about to make, repre-
sensations in regard to the British
feet Minister Layard's opposition to
the embarkation of Russian troops
at Buyakdere has caused great irri
tation.
An inspired article in the Journal
de st. Petersburg attacts much atten-
ton. 1t points to the continuance of
the fleet in the Sea of Marmora in de-
fiance of international law, and asks if
it is not time to ask England what
she really wants. Europe should call
England before her Judgment seat, land
summon her to re-onter the sphere of
international law, by quitting the
straits and formally engaging not to
return. Some official hints are given
that if England does not wish to at
tend the conference it will meet with
out her. In connection with the fore
going intelligence, is should be stated
that rumors were circulating in the
Hobbies of Parliament last evening
that the tone in then Eglish official
circles was decidedly warlike.
