Sweet Minded Women.

So great is the influence of a sweet
minded woman on those around her that
it is almost boundless. It is to her that
friends come in season of sorrow and
sickness for help and comfort; one sooth-
ing touch of her kindly hand works
wonders in the feyerish child: a few
words let fall from her lips in the ear OF
a sorrowing sister do much to raise the
load of grief that is bowling IFS victim
down to the dust in anguish. The hus.
band comes home worn out with the
pressure of business, and feeling irrita-
bic with the world in general; but when
he enters the coy sitting
room. and sees the blaze o.
the bright fire, and meets bis
wife's smiling face, he succumbs IN a
moment to the soothing influence which
act as the balm of Gilead to his wound
ed spirits. We are all wearied with
combating with the stearn realities Of
life. The rough school-boy flies in 9
rage from the taunts of his companions
to find solace in his mothers smile; the
little one, fell Of grief witt, its own large
trouble, finds a heaven of rest on its
mothers breast; and so one might GO
on with instances OF the influence that a
sweet-minded woman has in the socia|
life with which she is connected. Beau
ny is an insignificant power when com
pared with hers.-Ex.

The most convenient way of keeping
celery in the winter in the cellar, and
one as good as any, is to pack the plants
as they are taken out Of the ground,
With all the soil adhering, and as closely
as possible, in boxes or barrels Of such
Il depth that the tops are even with the
edge of the bog. In this way the stalks
are blanChcd and are kept fresh and
succulent. The boxes should be put in
the coolest part Of the cellar. And the
way is to pack the plants in n similar
manner in trenches in the Ground half
as deep as the plants are long; put
boards on each side and earth up against
the boards; then cover the whole with
straw. Freezing does not iniurc celery,
but rather improves it, making lttende:

The wire Right in Iowa.

What is generally known as the
"Barbed Wire Monopoly" put up the
price Of its goods to 10 and III cents per
pound, and found a troublesome COM
petitor in the Farmers PROTECTIVE Asso-
ciaticn of Iowa, which established a co.
operative factory and supplied to It's
members an equal quality of popular
fencing material at and Z cents, gain
ing a fair profit on its manufacture even
at that rate. Since then there has been
much litigation, in which Iowa farmers
were successful, and there is more to
follow within a month or two, for which
funds IRE needed. An earnest effort
is making to raise the money; the agri-
cultural aud local journals Of the state
are giving urgent attention to the SUBJ

Egyptian Explorations.

The Rev. William G. Winslow, Of Bos.
ton, has written an interesting letter to
the Churchman of New York about the
work of the Egyptian Exploration Fund
Society OF England Last winter this
society engaged in an important Under
taking in the Delta, under the direction
or M. Navile, the eminent Psychologist
namely, the excavation of thei Biblical
city Of Pithom, built by the Hebrews
during their servitude. This CITY has
been identified by the excavations as
the store city" built for Pharaoh during
the oppression, and also as the city
which IS referred to as Succoth in the
Bible. Interesting hieroglyphics and
sun-dried bricks were found. some with,
others without, straw. The society pro-
poses during the present winter, iffrnds
are forthcoming. to excavate San the Zoan
OF the Bible, and the Tanis OF the Greeks.
That is where the Pharaoh lived who
was the friend of Jose ph, and is there
fore the place in which to look for doc
uments bearing OF the history Of the
Hebrews during their long sojourn In
Egypt. 1t is likely that Hebrew monu-
nients and sepulchres will be found In
San. There also lies buried in the lost
history Of the Shepherd Kings. In fact
no other site in Egypt, or in the whole
east, is known to be SO rich in buried
monuments, numbers of which just show
themselves on the surface ofthe mounds.
And yet, IL has been scarcely touched by
the spade OF the explorer. Americans
who are Interested in these excavations
are invited to contribute TO the fund.
