Stephens and Webster.

Charleston News and Courier.
The late Governor Stephens used to tell the
following story: II shall never forget my
first trip away from home, nor the impress
sions it made upon me- l was quite Young
man, and some business fell into my hands
that carried me North L had never been as
far as Washington before, and of course
went into the Senate gallery and took my
seat. / could easily pick out the prominent
men by the pictures L had seen of them.
Pretty soon question came up, and the
President OF the Senate announced that Mr.
Webster was entitled to the acor. Ofcourse
/ was very much gratified that was to hear
him. He arose and began speaking in an
ordinary conversational way l think he
took his snuff occasionally. He never
made gesture from the time he opened
until he closed l thought it was all
sound doctrine, but was convinced that l
knew dozen college boys who could have
beaten him speaking. The next morning
picked up paper. There was his speech
headed Mr.. Webster's great speech on the
finances Pshaw, l thought they don't call
that great speech, do they? l saw another
paper. There it was again, headed MIR
Webster's great speech on the finances l
went to Baltimore. There they had Mr.. Web
ster's great speech ON the finances l reached
Philadelphia. and everybody was talking
about Mr. Webster's great speech on the
finances. I got to New York. There every
thing was in ferment over Mr.. WebSter's
great speech on the finances. 1t was the
same way in Boston. So concluded that it
must indeed be great speech. 1t put me
to thinking, and l made up my mind that 1T
was not the way man said anything, but
what he said that made him an orator.

Easter Church Trimming.
Art Interchange.

ART interchange.
Crosses and crowns of pure white flowers
are suitable for the chancel wall, and boquets
of lilies of the valley, roses and violets for
the altar. A Latin cross of white carnations
or camelias may be entwned by q passion
vine dropping its purple flowers from the
arms The flowers for the altar should be
the choicest, and arranged without stiffness.
The pillars of the church should be twined
obliquely with garlands of green leaves, and
the base and capital garlanded with red and
white flowers. The use of white silk or
velvet banners fringed with gold silk, and EN-
broidered or painted with sacred monograms,
and having long lance-headed poles to be
fastened toand projected from the pillars OF a
church over the aisles, would be novel in the
country. Abroad, in the large cities, this deco
ration is used with splendid effect, and we see
no reason why it should not be done here. If
there is a baptismal font, garland the rim
with white flowers; fill the basin with water
and arrange a floating cross of white lilies.
Potted plants are beautiful for decoration,
but should be so arranged as to conceal the
unsightly pots; banking up with moss is an
excellent method. Green vines may be freely
used; smilax, when not readily to be obtain
ed, may have its place taken by the excellent
artificial smilax now in use. Green is EN-
blematic of hope, victory and immortality;
and scarlet of royalty, martyrdom, Our
Lords Passion and the Holy Spirit; green,
also, and scarlet and white are the coiors
which appear to most advantage in large
building, other colors being absorbed in
space. Text of white daisies on the blue
ground and scrolls with verses appropriate to
Easter, must also be used.

Mistakes of Health-seekers.
New York Graphic.

new Ofk dfapnlC.
Some mistakes are made by health-seekers.
Cold-water bathing still claims many victims
The daily test of any such practice should be
increase, or at least retention, of strength
and vigor. But cold baths are sometimes
persisted in when there is a gradual loss of
strength which the victim is very apt to at
tribute to anything else but the real cause.
Skin-rubbing and friction with flesh brushes
or rough gloves may also in cases be an in
furious practice, when carried to the extent
OF rubbing off the fine outer or "scarf-skin."
Who knows how much of the natural action
of the skin may be injured when a portion
of it is thus lost? True little rolls of it are
peeled off either in this way or by the at
tendant at the Turkish bath, and triumph
antly exhibited as proofs of its cleansing
process But when soap, warm water and
brushes are used to such an extent as to rub
off this very thin scarf, the winter coat of
skin may be left without the proper means
for carrying on its natural work. 1t is posi-
BILE that the skin may do portion of its own
necessary work in throwing off dead matter,
Certainly it does in the case OF birds and ami
mails in their natural state.

The Use of Wine.
Matthew Arnold

"As to the use of wine, can only speak
for myself, OF course there is the danger
of excess but healthy nature and the power
OF self-control being pre-supposed, one can
hardly do better, l should think than follow
nature as to what one drinks and its times
and quantity. As general rule, drink
water in the middle of the day. and glass
or two of sherry and some light claret mixed
with water, at a late dinner and this seems
to suit me very well. l have given up beer
in the middle of the day, not because ex-

Letter in New York World.
Going to the station before daybreak to
get the train East, got the information that
it would not leave until the next day. An
old German music professor turned away
with me to the small hotel on the bluff, and
through the long morning gave out on his
guitar the remedy to soothe our savage
breasts. He improvised in the most exquis-
lite and pathetic way, revealing most clearly
a life that knew sympathy and suffering. In
the evening about dozen young men gath
cred in the room to hear the professor play
who performed some choice things with the
hand and feeling of an artist One of the
young men began playing on violin, or
rather "fiddling" Presently he struck up
some jig, the Arkansas some
thing. The professor involuntarily
made one wild movement of his hand up
through his gray hair, and then settled him
self stoically, with folded arms. to bear the
martyrdom. When it was finished, with the
accompaniment of pedal bass on the floor,
the old professor broke out, saying in saw
age way: That music is scandalous; we don't
have any music of that sort any more. That
music is only for the feet; it doesn't go any
further than the legs. But real music is
story, like book, that you may read. 1t
doesn't touch your feet; it touches your
heart. 1t doesn't make your hands work like
a saw; it brings the tears to your eyes,"
There was a dead painful silence, as the
young men saw that what they loved was
only lie and a counterfeit. And so it is
with others, in other things in life. They
find pleasure where wisdom sees folly, and
love things that have in them no truth.

A Homemade Toilet Table.
Demorest's Monthly.

Any table can be converted into a dress
ing-table by adding a board to form the
back and top. Cover the board at the back
and the top of the table with red Turkey
twill, and arrange drapery below in large
vandykes of red twill and white crash or
dimity, having the red one above joining
the top. Add an edge of coarse antique lace
round the table, and throw across a scarf
one and a half yards wide of white material,
embroidered with red ingram cotton and
edged with lace at each end. Arrange side
curtains to correspond with the rest of the
decorations, looping them back with large
rosettes of satin ribbon. Another design is
very effective made of unbleached muslin
with band of pink embroidered in large
lilies and green leaves. The edges are every
where outlined with chan-stitch, as we'll as
long spiked stitches. The same design Dor
ders the curtains and bed-spread.

and makes him bilious; wine will not cure
this, nor will abstaining from wine prevent
