"WovEN AIR. The Decca muslins
of India are among the most wonderful
evidences of the hand-skill of the strange
people of the mysterious East. These
fabrics, which are spun and woven en-
tirely by hand and are the product of
obscure and curious processes, unknown
to and unattainable by the western ma
tions, like the fabrication of Damas-
Gus steel and the making of camel's-
hair shaws, are marvels of ingenuity
and skill, and illustrate the poetry of
cotton. The most delicate of these fab
RIGS is known by the name of woven
air" It can only be made in the early
morning and in the evenings, when the
air is full of moisture and the dew is on
the grass. The processes by which it is
woven are kept secret, and the people
who do the work are compelled first to
pass through long course of training
and initiation. Their delicate waves are
of such ethereal texture as to be almost
invisible, and yet are SO enduring that
they will bear washing and wear in a
wonderful manner. This precious stuff
is monopolized for the use Of the oriental
harems. and is said to be worth hun
dreds of dollars per yard.

but draws no pension. 1t is said by the
ex-soldiers that he did good service dur
ing the war by aiding Union soldiers to
communicate with their families when
they were in the rebel lines, and in
many other ways. If he can't get a
pension for services in either of the war
of 1912 or that of the of the rebellion,
he ought certainly to get a liberal one
for his services between the two. The

He is but poor Christian who has
nothing to tell of the workings
of God in his own experience. The
blind man who was healed by Christ
said of Jesus, ..W neither he be sinner
or no | know not; one thing | know,
that whereas was blind, now | see. !"
What this age prominently needs is
affirmation. We are sick and dying of
of negations. In spiritual matters what
chemists call analysis by exclusion IS
being pushed to an unwarrantable ex-
tent" Do we know anything Is the
grace of God in our souls an indisputa-
BILE experience Does faith fit us with
wings on which we can launch without
fear into eternity? There is a pressing
demand for testimony in this matter.

thing ? Can you tell what you know ?

world may hear at least one voice that
articulates itself in afirmation.-G Golden

Among the many superstitions of
which loaf of bread has been made the
basis, one of the strangest is that which
In more than one European country, at
taches special ill-luck to the turning of
the loaf upside down. In Scotland this
is accounted for by a legend that Sir
Walter Montieth, the betrayer of Wal
lace to the English, made this action
the signal of attack, whence the revers-
ing of loaf in the presence Of a Mon
tieth was considered so deadly an insult
as to cause more than one fatal duel in
the old fighting days. The same belief,
in Germany, is explained by the story
of Bohemian King, who. happening to
reverse his loaf, was warned by sooth-
sayer that it presaged the overthrow of
his kingdom, which speedily came to
pass. The Russians hold their super
stition SO firmly that you have only to
turn loaf upside down in any native
village to see the whole company dash
at it and reverse it, explaining that,
when the fat side is exposed the devil
comes and seats himself upon 1t. and is
not to be dislodged without victim of
some kind.

To THE YOU'VE MAN WHO WHISTLES.
Whistle all you will in solitary places,
son, if it pleases you, whistle in the night
as you go home. if you will. for cherry
whistle in the dark is a pleasant sound
unto the listing soul of the belated pass
enger, but when you come into assem-
blages and business haunts of men, un-
pucker your musical lips and shut up
your whistle In your heart. And if ever
the temptation comes to you to whistle
against the edge of card, crush it out,
if the efforts kills you. Whistling is
not lofty nor yet useful, although
it is universal accomplishment.
Though you practice hundred years,
and though you whistle never so whistley,
my son, yet the most common switch
engine that ever scared human being
deaf, can beat you at it. The great
and the good were never great whistlers,
my son. George Washington never sat

and although you may never be first in
war, first in peace and dl6rst in the hearts
of your country-men, yet fame will not
forget you if they can write upon your
tombstone that you never whistled your
country-men into convulsions of intem-
perate but fruitless profanity.-Burling
