Born LEADERS The best administrative
officers are those who make their authority
with as few words as possible, and never dis
play it unnecessarily Men who are compe-
tent to command" born leaders :" as they
are caled--have no occasion TO exact obedience
from subordinates, for no one ever thinks Of
disobeying them while those who do not
possess the quality only display their weak
ness in their efforts to appear important and
impressive The story is told of a man who
had large number of pigs in pen near his
house, and made 1t his practice to 90 out ev-
cry evening and g stir them up " with club,
to the great annoyance of the pigs and the
disturbance of the neigbbofs. One of these
demonstrated with him one morning, asking
why he treated his pigs in so craela manner.
" Because" he answered, g want them to
know that am BOSS There are too many
men in every community whose idea of exec
utive ability is exactly on par with this.-
They buster and spurge and "stir things
up" generally, convinced that snch foolish
parade of authority will convince those un-
fortunate enough to be under them that they
are 'boss," whereas the fact is that it serves
to convince all concerned that they are fools.
And the time comes at length when those who
are over them find it out, and then they are
dropped. The quiet way is the best, after
all.-Boston Transcript

WOMEN AT TwENTY-FIvE.--The man who
meets and loves the woman at twenty-five is
truly fortunate, and she is equally fortunate
in meeting and loving him, says writer In
feminine journal. AT that age she seldom
deceives. She may not have, she is not likely
to have then, her first sentimental experiences |;
but such experience at such an age is more
than sentimental and rarely every fleeting.-
She looks back at the youths she imagined
she was enamored of. between sixteen and
eighteen, or often Twenty-Five, and they are
more than indifferent or repellant to her
they are ridiculous and in some sort she, as
she then was, is ridiculous to herself. She
cannot but think what she escaped; she cannot
but be grateful to her destiny that her sympa-
thies and affections have been reserved for a
worthy object, and higher end. At twenty
five, if ever, woman kpows and estimates
herself. She is less liable to emotional OF
mental mistakes she is far surer of her fl-
ture, because she feels that her face is, to a
certain extent, within her own hands. Not
only is she more lovely and more lovable
broader and stronger than she has been, but
her welded happiness and powers OF endur-
ance are in manner guaranteed.

MISCELLANY
HOME DECORATIONS.

As 1t is Just the time to commence orna-
menting our homes TO make them bright and
CHEEKY for the long winter evenings before us,
will tell you of some pretty things for every
day use. do not believe in overmuch fancy
work this spending days and weeks on diff
iicnlt and intricate piece OF work is not a plan
that should advocate. But the simple orna-
ments that win help beautify a home ought to
interest every woman, A pretty article can
be made of s,rawsand ribbon to hold flowers,
and is called bahute It is made by taking
the most perfect, unbroben straws that can be
found and placing them in such a position as
to admit of nteracing backward and forward
a narrow ribbon. Satin is best, being stiff,
and many use heavy paper. Scarlet and blue
are pretty eolors' and many like green. Mine
is scarlet, because that's the predominating
color Of my room. There must be thirty long
straws three quarters Of yard in length -
They can be purchased at any fancy store.
The first interlacing, in and out, of the ribbon
will not sustain the straws, but by the time
the second is in, the first will remain in place
for thread can then be run into the first,
Below the second, after running another
thread through IT, place a third, then fourth.
Attach the ends of the ribbon to an upright
piece OF cardb of oval shape, with holes
punclured in it to hold each straw in place
Make one hole at the edge of the card board
and another little way from it, so that the
straws will be ass irrsg Rs'ss-liae around the
.edoe This must be followed out, leaving an
opening to put CARDS or grasses in This
done, gather the pendant ends of the straws
at the bottom of the card, which must be of
pointed shape, and tie up like sheaf of wheat
with the baud of the ribbon into a bow make
the upper straws bulge into basket shape.
Very pretty ones are made with top fixed as
described, excepting half oval SO that the
straight side sets against the wall, and the
bottom is cut the same as the top. only with
out the opening. These are very pretty to
hold artificial flowers, such as peoples and
cornhowers, wheat and oats they can set in
the opening and allowed to fall gracefully ov-
err the straws between the tops OF which you
arrange them you then fasten long loop Of
ribbon, with bow, to tile top and hang upon
the wall. This can be arranged in very ar
tistic and uustudied manner.--A tady IN De-
troit Free Press.

The art Of being happy lies in the power Of
extracting happiness from common things
If we pitch our expectations high, If we are
arrogant in our pretentions, If we will not be
happy except when our self-love is eratiied,
our pride stimulated, our vanity fed, or a
fierce excitement kindled, we shall have but
little satisfaction out of this life.
