HumOr in the Family.

Good humor is rightly reckoned
most valuable aid to happy home life.
An equally good and useful faculty is
q sense Of humor, or the capacity to
have a little fun along with the hum
drum of life. We all know how it
brightens things up generally to have
a lively, witty companion, who secs
the ridiculous points of things, and
who can turn any annoyance into an
occasion for laughter. 1t does . great
deal better to laugh over some domes-
tic mishaps than to cry OF scold over
them. Many homes and lives are dull
because they are allowed to become
too deeply impressed with sense of
the care and responsibilities of life
to recognize its bright and especially
its mirthful side. Into such house.
hold, good, but dull, the advent of
witty, humorous friend is like sum
shine to cloudy day. While it is
oppressive to hear people constantly
striving to say funny things, it is
comfortable, seeing what brightener
a little fun is, to make an effort to
have some at home. 1t is well to turn
off an impatient question sometimes
and to regard it from humorous point
of view, instead Of becoming irritated
about it. "What. what is the reason
can never find clean shirtw ex-
claimed good but rather impatient
husband, after rumaging through the
wrong drawer. His wife looked at
him steadily for moment, half in
clincd to be provoked, then with a
comical look replied: "I never could
guess conundrums; must give it up"
Then he laughed, and they both laugh
ed, and she went and got his shirt, and
he felt ashamed of himself and he kiss
ed her, and then she felt happy; and
SO what might have been an occasion
for hard words and unkind feelings
became just the contrary. Laughter
is better than tears. Let us have a lit

Pure Fruit SiruDS.

A prominent druggist was asked about
the purity of sO-called soda water and OF
the sirups used with them. 'sIt is two.
thirds bogus" he replied. "Soda water
as usually prepared contains no soda, in
any form. Pure water with carbonic
acid gas is all that it is. Bicarbonate OF
soda is sometimes used. Nearly every
druggist makes his own soda water, and
I know of one case in which the pro
prietor of a large drug store has sunk an
artesian well for the purpose of having
plenty of water" "What about sir
ups ?" "In most cases they are unfit
for drink, positively injurious, and very
often made from an inferior quality OF
drugs. The so-called pure fruit sirups
in nine cases out of ten do not contain a
smell of the fruit they are supposed to
be made of but they are concocted with
so much skill as to deceive the sensitive
taste" How many soda water stands
are there in New York?" Thousands

came up FOR examination in the

The first witness in the case was the
complaining witness, Mary McKenna who
deposed and testified substantially as fol-
lows:

the defendant since last November;
on September 10th he asked me
to go walking; was at
my home. We went down Western avenue
and Eighth street to Hennspin avenue.
from there to the Jefferson school build
ing; he asked me to sit on steps; front side
of building; it was about eight o'clock in
the evening when we started from home;
after nine when we arrived at school
building; we talked awhile about
his girl, his sweetheart
he said he had told her about kissing me,
and thereat she cried; then asked him to
take me home, but he refused; he asked
me to kiss him; refused. and he assault
ed me. (Witness described the assault in
detail.)
Cross s-emamination-Am sixteen years
old; when Martin brought me back to the
school house he locked me inside; kept me
there ten minutes; he took me home; the
matter was told my mother by Martin
my sister was there; the school house is at
the corner of Seventh street and First ave-
nue. north; gas lamp was lighted at the
corner of the street; Murphy had his hand
on my neck before / screamed; we were at
the school house about three-quarters
of an hour; he kissed me sew
al times; once 1 told him to stop.
The cross examination was continued at
considerable length, but no new features
were introduced.

school house, was next sworn. He testi-
fed to hearing the conversation while he
was within few feet inside the building.

He heard her screams and ran up stairs
and got his dark lantern, then into the
basement for matches. When he appeared
upon the scene Murphy had the girl down
with her clothes as described by the com
planning witness. Murphy turned upon him
and knocked the lantern from his hand, ex-
tinguishing the light. He then anticipat-
ing violence at once struck Murphy with
his cane. The girl ran down the walk; he
followed and captured her, but Murphy
escaped. The remainder of the testimony
was nearly identical to that of the girl
The cross examination failed to make
him waiver.

Grub the Rust Off,

Listeners do sometimes hear good
things of themselves they are invoL
naatary listeners. In the following in
stance the truth the listener heard was
uncouth and blunt, but it was useful.
DIR. j. M. Reid, Secretary of the Mis-
sionary Society, tells good story rela-
tive to himself. Once, when editor, he
was invited to preach in Chicago. He
was taken to the church by a good
brother, who landed him there early;
and, no one being present but himself,
he took seat in the church alone to
mediate and rest for the evening ser
mon. 1t was just at dusk, and he had
not been seated long before he heard
persons engaged in prayer service in
an adjoining room.
He listened. Presently loud, zeal
GUS brother engaged in prayer. He
touched upon various matters, and in
voked the Divine blessing upon them,
including "the speaker of the evening,
DR.. Reid. For him he prayed very
much as follows:
so Lord, bless him who is to speak
to us this evening; he is poor, weak
man, but make him power. Bless the
message that he shall bring. We know
that he is only an editor, and that he is
rusty but, o Lord, rub the rust off"
DIR. Reid said that the man prayed
earnestly, oblivious to the fact that "the
editor" was listening and, as an en-
phasis to his prayer, he (the doctor)
uttered hearty sAmen. Methodist.

A Water Filter.

Pure water is of great Importance
to the human family, and where the
advantages of good springs are not at
hand, and the water is impure, the
following cheap plan of making a fill
ter, copied from communication in
the Canada Farmer, may be Of SER
vice:
Rain water is much healthier than
hard water as a beverage, and the fol-
lowing will be found an easy and
cheap way to fit it for drinking pur-
poses: Have an oak tub made, hold
ing from half to barrel, according to
the amount needed in the family; let
it stand on end with a faucet near the
bottom-or I prefer a hole through
the bottom near the front side, with q
tube in it, which prevents the water
from rotting the outside of the tub
Then put clean pebbles three or four
inches in thickness over the bottom of
the tub. Now have charcoal pulver-
lied to the size of small peas that made
from hard maple is the best), and put
in half bushel or so at time ; pound
it down quite firmly, and then put in
more and pound again until the tub is
filled to within eight inches of the
top; again put on two inches more of
the pebbles, and then put piece of
clean white flannel over the whole
top as strainer.
The flannel can be washed OCCASION
ally to remove the impurities collect
ed from the water, and it might be
we'll TO put a flannel between the peb-
bles and the bottom also. When the
charcoal becomes foul it can be re-
newed as before, but will work a
whole season without renewing. Put
on your water freely until it becomes
clear, when you will be as
we'll satisfied as you would be if it
ran through patent filter costing six
times as much as this. A large jar to
hold the filtered water can be set in
the ice box if preferred, or an occa-
sional piece OF ice can be put in the
water; but if the filter is set in the
cellar, as it should be, the water will
be sufficiently cool. for health. This

Military Service in Germany.

The boys, at Is years of age, the Ger
man youth, rich or poor, must enter the
service OF his country. If his relatives
or friends can afford to pay 5000 marks
(about $72O into the treasury the young
man, if belonging to the infantry, can
escape with only one years actual SER
vice, but he must report for drill duty
once every year. His relations or friends
must also keep him in clothes and uni
forms, and pay all the expense the first
year. If he belongs to the cavalry the
fee is from 1000 to 5000 marks, and the
conditions the same. The term of ser.
vice in times of peace is five years, but,
until he is 40 years of age he is liable
to be called on for active service in case
of war. This is the case whether he is
rich or poor. The great majority of
conscrirts serve the full five years, leav-
ing the army when they are about %
years of age. Their education is not
neglected in the meantime, and they
have little idle time on their hands, for
they are drilled, and subjected to long
marches nearly every day, in all kinds
of weather.
Thus we see that the Saxon is a good
boy; no one will deny that he is a good
soldier; he leaves the army and becomes
good husband; he is good father,
and he dies, after life of active work,
a good man. What more could be said
for him?

Shades and Shade Decoration.

Probably nothing will ever be offered
the trade in shade goods which so uni
versally fills the popular demand as Hol-
lands, so completely do tLsv soften the
light and so durable are their wearing
properties. Of late years, however, q
great demand has arisen for painted pa
per shades, which for appearance are
very desirable.
The colorings and designs which can
be applied to paper are unlimited, and
the artists scope is unbounded by con-
ventionalities. The plain dado, which
was adopted short while back as fam
ciful ornamentation for the window
shade, is now succeeded by handmade
sketches. During the past few years
decorative efforts in every style of shade
goods have not been wanting, and in
some goods twining vines are curled up
over the sides and tops of the shades.
Transparencies also have been intro
duced, which show pleasing effects from
outside as welfas inside the house.
The silk shade, although expensive
and easily disordered, is becoming more
and more used in rich decoration. 1t is
gathered in folds across the window, two
or more cords passing the folds to slat
at the bottom, and when these cords are
drawn up the curtain is gathered
shirred. Something embodying the
same principle has been offered the trade
in times past, by which the curtain is
drawn to the right or left, or up or down,
by means of enough cords and pulleys
to regulate full-rigged ship. The OBJ
ject of this idea was excellent, as by il
one could shut off the sun from which
ever corner of the window it was enter
ing, without shutting out at the same
time, as is now often the case, a great
deal of desirable ght.---Carpet Trade

How to Raise Strawberries.

One very important principle is otter
overlooked by the cultivator. It is thai
the production of the seed or fruit is g
very exhausting process. When a man
buys tree from the nursery and il bearf
half dozen samples of fruit the first
year, it stops its growth just about one
year. Hence, until tree gets good
growth it should not be allowed to bear.
Trees that are growing rapidly do no,
bear, and it q tree is bearing at all, it il
to the detriment of the growth.
A strawberry plant usually bears 8
crop OF fruit and also produces new
vines. Now # the blossoms of those
plants from which we want to raise new
plants are cut off in season, the whole
strength goes into the new plants, and
LOCO runners grown from plants that
are not allowed to fruit are worth more
than 5000 grown from plants that
bore fruit at the same time. Old
plants are worth nothing-new plants
from an old bed are worth moth
ing. The only plants worth using are
young plants grown from such as are
not allowed to fruit. The true way to
raise strawberries is to get young plants
of this description and not allow them to
fruit the first year. They will throw out
plenty of strong, vigorous runners, and
the next season before bearing take a
part of these to make new bed. A new
bed should be made every year. When
we plant in the spring we should get no
fruit the same year. The next year we
get the largest crop we ever get. The
vines can stand and bear partial crop
the next season, or be plowed under as
soon as the crop is gathered.
/ like best to raise one full crop and
only one. It is less labor to make a
new bed than to clean up an old one. It
is very little labor to plant an acre OF
strawberries if properly done, and no
other crop pays so well. The only diff.
ficulty is to get the right kind of plants,
but every man can raise the plants him.
self in this way. Strawberries will do
well on any land that will raise good
