TAKING IT Our OF THE STORE
Mr.. Kemper, of Illinois, was in the
mercantile business. He had great
deal of work outside of his store, and
he generally made it point to pay
men that worked for him with goods.
On one occasion he had a pile of
wood he wanted cut into stove wood.
Calling to a boy on the street he said:
''Here, Dock, l want to get little
wood cut. Can you do it!
Eyes! y said the boy.
"All right, you 60 over to the
house and cut that pile, and come
back and 1 will pay you for it but 1
suppose you will take it out of the
store," he added, after short pause.
"Of course, / would just as soon
take it out of the store as not.''
Meeting Kemper on the street
day or two after, the boy said:
"Say, Mr.. Kemper, l would like
to have the cash for cutting that
wood"
"Why," said Kemper, 81 thought
you were going to take it out of the
store?''
'sWell, who said l wasn't? We
are out of the store now and / will
take the cash."

FoR CHAPPED HANDs.-One of the
easiest and simplest remedies is
found in every store. Take CON-
mon starch. and grind it with knife
until it is reduced to the smoothest
powder. Take a tin box and fill it
with starch thus prepared, so as to
have it continually at hand for use.
Then every time the hands are taken
from the suds or dish-water, rinse
them thoroughly in clean water, wipe
them, and while they are yet damp
rub pinch of the starch thoroughly
over them, covering the whole sur
face.
The effect is magical. The rough
smarting skin is cooled, soothed and
healed, bringing and insuring the

OVER AND OVER.

Over, and over and over
I'm sewing a weary seam,''
But the needle slips from my fingers,
And I close my eyes and dream;
For ever the click Of the needle,
Seems droning sad refrain,
While set these tiresome stitches.
Over and over again.
1t is not the work Of my fancies,
Not step in grand career;
When finished, twill be but garment.
For rompng boy to wear;
And soon it will need repairing,
And though weary in heart and brain,
shall have to reset these stitches.
Over and over again.
But I've long outlived the romance.
And now If l find at eve,
That my stitches are straight and even,
think that shall not grieve;
For a homely task well finished.
Is better than any dream,
And I'm doing my p.ainest duty.
In sewing this tiresome seam.
And think that God, who has given
Our portion to each and all,
If I've nothing better to offer,
4.--~ Wiliaeeept these stitches small;
. And when my account is rendered,
Perhaps shall find them weighed
With love for weight-in the balance.
With the garments that Dorcas made.

THE CHILDREN'S WORK.

Don't be alarmed at all the NOISE
You hear from laughing girls and boys,
From Christmas until New Years day
Let children have their fullest sway;
Let them romp, and let them run,
Do any thing to have some fun;
Let them healthy pleasures seek,
OF all the year, tits chldren's week
Let them halloo, let them call,
And scamper up and down the hall;
Let them blow their whistles shrill,
And toot their trumpets when they will.
And let them run the parlors DER,
Spread all their plavthIngs on the fioor
Be- pare nts. to their failings meek.
OF all the year, It's children's week.
Yes, parents. mingle in their joys
Return again to girls and boys.
Leave, fathers, business cares behind,
Enjoyment in the family find,
Forget the cares of business strife
With mother JOIN the children's life,
And with your darlings pleasures seek;
OF all the year, It's children's week.

THE DUTY OF DRESSING
WE'LL.

Every person owes the duty to
others as well as to personal self
respect, to dress well. One need not
be extravagant, for it requires no
greater expenditure to dress neatly
than as slouch. Simplicity, united
with good taste, will generally be
found more effective than the most
costly attire that fashionable tailors
or French milliners can invent
Cleanliness of person and apparel is
the first requisite. In this day of
cheap clothing it is not difficult for
those of the most limited means to
procure presentable garments, nor
does it cost more to have them neat
ly fit the person than to have them
hang over the anatomy in ungainly
shapes. Grease spots and stains,
soiled linen, dilapidated hats and un-
polished boots are without excuse,
and invariably denote the sloven, for
ten minutes attentions to these de-
tails every day will insure neatness
of appearance. Especially is it i'm
possible for women to afford to be
| careless in these matters. OF all
human creatures slatternly woman
--dowdy-is the most offensive.
Every woman may dress neatly if
she chooses. Whatever may be her
trials or veXations or disappoint-
ments, she should always strive to
dress as becomingly as her position
will allow. 1t is not necessary that
she should array herself in silks and
velvets and jewelry. Indeed, loud
ness of dress is almost as reprehen-
sible in either sex as slovenliness.
The cheapest cotton frock, if fresh
and prettily made, may be as becom-
ing as silk, and a flower or simple
ribbon in the hair may look quite as
fascinating as a costly head-dress or
diamond aigrette. A lady while
experimenting any of her household
affairs, is no more expected to be
"dressed up'' than is the man while
in his shop or at his Office desk; but
untidiness is inexcusable. and a
neat apron is far more becoming than
the folds of her frock gathered
above her petticoats. Nor will it
answer for women to be any more
unmindful of the familiar presence of
husband and father or brother, than
it will for the latter to disregard the
same conventionality. 1t is no less
easy for a man to become disgusted
with slatternly. carelessly dressed
woman than it is for a woman to
learn to detest a slovenly, ill-clad
man. Our advice, then, to all,
young and old alike, is to be neat in
attire. Be always as well dressed as
| your circumstances will allow and
your position In life will justify.
SedulouslY cultivate the habit in
youth, and when you are old you
will not depart from it. Clean ap-
parel and clean conscience go very
often together. The erratic Thomas
F. Marshall once declared that a
clean shirt in the morning was more
exhilarating to him than champagne
cocktail, and that he never knew a
man to be guilty of mean act who
wore clean linen.-Sunday Record.
