The Feeling at Executive psna-.msnts

The Feeling at Executive Departments.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-The excited and
uneasy feeling prevalent throughout the ex-
ecutive departments of late while awaiting the
report OF the Ohio election, has to-day given
place to great satisfaction among the thou
sands OF government employees in Washing
ton, and the routine business is proceeding
quietly as usual. A number of prominent
officials are still about the city, however, and
many clerks are already arranging for leave
OF absence to 90 home to vote at the presi-
dental election. Political matters still con-
tinue to attract attention on all hands, and
although there is to-day no appearance of ex-
element, the November election is mani
festiy the uppermost topic of interest.

JOB PREJVYETG
WOOL UNDERCLOTHING.
THE Lancet ]

| THE Lancet
Among the many means by which
we seek to guard ourselves from
the effects of chill there is one
which hardly, even now, receives
sufficient atteltion-the use Of
woolen underclothing. The major
ity Of persons of the male sex do,
indeed show their appreciation Of
its wholesome qualities; but there
remains a considerable moiety Of
these, and far greater number Of
women and children, who prefer an
undersuit of smooth but relatively
meagre linen. Yet the superior
advantages of wearing wool next
the skin are easily apparent on re-
Election. They do not depend mere
ly on it's greater warmth and close
ness of application. 1t is further
capable, according to its texture
and in virtue of its composition.
of better adoption in respect of
temperature to the needs of various
climates and the changes of seasons
than any other dress material.
Moreover, whether il be fine or
rough, dense or light, woolen cloth
ing, it is evident, exhibits special
facility for absorbing and distribu-
ting moisture. 1t is this property
especially which renders it the nat
ural covering of the constantly per.
spring skin. If one be engaged,
for example, in active exercise Of
limb, a linen fabric will absorb
what products of transudation it
can till it is wet, but will leave
much moisture unobsorbed upon the
clammy surface, whereas q flannel,
from its more spongy nature, will
rest upon skin which it has nearly
dried and be but damp itself. 1t
is obvious, then, that in the event
of an after chill, and this occurs in
summer as in winter, the body is,
in the latter case, most favcrably
disposed to resist it. Flannel is
not less cleanly than linen, though
it may appear less white; and if the
wearer battle daily it is surprising
how long it will retain its purity.
The disadvantage of skin irritation
to which it sometimes gives rise is
usually associated with coarseness
of quality or freshness of -manufac-
ture, and is with nearly all who
have experienced it, merely tran
sient condition. Women as we'll
as men, we repeat, but above all,
children and the aged, who are alike
particularly apt to take cold, should
certainly adopt a wooden material
for their customary under-garment.
1t is easily possible to adjust the
texture to the season, so that it
shall be warm enough IN winter,
and not too warm in summer.

PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD
WILL TO HEN.

1t came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song OF old,
From angels bending near the earth,
TO touch their harps OF gold,
''Peace to the earth good will 10 men
From the heavens all graciou<Kingr
The world III solemn stiffness lay
To hear the angels sing.
Yet will the woes of sin and strife
The world has Suffered long;
Beneath the angel strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong:
And man. at war with man, hears Tot
The love song which they bring;
Oh. hush the noise, ye men OF strife,
And hear the angels sing.
And ye, beneath life'S crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low:
Who toll along the climbing way
With painful step and SLOW
Look now. for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing;
Oh! rest besides the weary road,
And hear the angels sing.
For 10! the days are Fastening on,
BY prophet bards ioretold,
When with the ever circling years
Comes round the age Of gold;
When Peace shall ever all the calth
Its ancient splendor ti;ng,
And the whole world give back the
song
Which now the angels sing.

WHICH WAS THE FOOL?

There was once a certain lord
who Gas great man did in the old
days. kept fool in his house to
amuse by jests and antics. His
master gave this fool a staff, and
charged him to keep it till he should
meet with some one who was a
greater fool than himself, and if he
met with such one to deliver it
over to him. Not many years after
his lord was on his sick-bed. His
fool came to see him, and was told
by the dying master that he must
shortly leave him.
"And whittier doest thou propose
to go?" said the fool.
"Into another world" replied the
lord.
And wilt thou come back again
within o month";
"No"
"Within a year,
"No."
"When, then?''
"Ne7er."
"Never? And what provision
hast thou made concerning thy en-.
tertainment in the place whittier
thou goest?"
"None at all
What said the fool; 'Enone at
all? Then take my staff. Art thou
going away forever and yet has
made no preparation for the jour
ney? 1 am not guilty OF such a folly
as that"

COOKERY PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.
Juliet Corscn.l

Perhaps you do not know that
there is, in connection with the ag-
itation ofthe question of industrial
education, a movement to have de-
par tments of cookery and domestic
economy introduced in our public
schools. Such is the case, however
and I believe the day is not far
distant when the art of cookery
will be given the attention it de-
serves. / am using all my influence
to bring about this result, and never
miss an opportunity of pressing the
point. The result of the observation
is that people in all parts of the
country are gradually coming to the
conclusion that in a country like
this education for the masses must
include industrial training in some
form. And certainly there is no
branch which has greater claims
upon the educational authorities
than this, which prepares the girls
to become competent housekeepers.
The experiment has already been
thoroughly tried in England and
shown to be success in every way.
Sewing and cooking are taught
there in institutions corresponding
practically to our common schools.
The British association appointed
a committee to investigate the mat
ter and the chairman reported that
not only was the instruction in these
departments signally successful,
but that it appeared that the pupils
in the schools where these things
were combined with the regular
course of study, better work was
done in tue regular branches. The
mind of the student requires diver
sion for most efficient work, and
this explains the fact cited, which
is certainly a strong argument for
the introduction of these depart
ments in our schools. I don't see
why it is not quite as necessary
that the home should be properly
managed as business. In country
like ours, where so much is made
of the common people, I do NOT see
how a public school system can be
considered which does not IN
clude practical instruction, complete
which can be used in everyday life
by both sexes.

A HAPPY COUPLE.

A married and experienced friend
tells US that a man should always
be little bigger than his wife, and
q little older, a little braver, and a
little stronger, end a little more in
love with her than she is with MIN.
A woman should always be q little
younger, and little prettier, and a
little more considerate than her
husband. He should bestow upon
her I'll his worldly goods, and she
should take care of them. He may
owe her every care and tenderness
tina! affection may prompt; but Pc
t!Giary Indebtedness to her will
become a burden. Better live on
a crust that he earns than on a for
tune that she has brought him.
Neither must be jealous, or give
the other cause for jealousy. Nei-
ther must encourage sentimental
friendship with the opposite sex.
Perfect confidence in each other,
and reticence concerning their mu-
tual affairs, even to members of
their own families, is a first neces-
sity.
A wife should dress herself be-
comingly whenever she expects to
meet her husbands eye. The man
should not grow slovenly even at
home.
Fault-fnding, long arguments,
Or seedlings, end the happiness that
begins in kisses and love-making.
Sisters and brothers may quarrel
and make it up" Lovers are low
ers no longer after such disturban-
ces occur, and married people who
are not lovers are bound by red hot
chains. If a man admires his wife
most in striped calico. she is silly
not to wear it.-The Eye.

ga MAN AND HALF"

AS Mr.. Topnoody took up his
paper Tuesday evening, his wife
from the other side of the fireplace
looked up over her glasses at him
in an inquiring way and finally
said:
There vas a man here to-day
getting some sort of statistics or
other. Do you know anything
about him?''
'No, my DEAR" replied Mr.. Top
moody, without taking his eyes from
bis paper.
"He wanted to know everything,
like census taker, or an assessor,
or something like that
did you tell him what he
wanted to know, my DEAR
"Of course, l answered all his
questions because I didn't know
what else to do
"What was the nature Of his
questions, my dea:."
"Well, he wanted to know if We
had cow, or horse, or dogs, how
much furniture, etc., and how many
in the family"
"Did you tell him !''
"Certainly, I did,
Did he ask you anything else?"
"Yes, he asked if there was a
man in the family
did you tell him."
Yes"
"Well, I'll bet a dollar he was a
burglar, and put on that disguise,
just to get the LAY of the land
You are a bright woman, indeed
Mrs. Topnoody, to furnish any
thief that comes along with such
information; a very bright woman,
l must confess and Mr.. Topnooby
got up and began putting on his
overcoat; Il must go to the police
station and inform the officers"
Don't be alarmed, Topnoody; l
fixed him all right; I told him there
was a man and a half in the house,
and the man was no siouch, eth
err
"a man and half? What do you
mean?"
why, I told him right to his
face, that l was the man and you
were the half, and he looked at me
a minute and said l needn't swear
to that statement, and then he left" :"

after the police.-Merchant Trarel-

SsIsetsD Story.
IN HHB WINDOW.

Ill keep the light in the window,
Sandy, till you come back
"Never mind, mother said the
boy, standing at the door in an un-
certain, slouching kind of way,
II might be late"
Its dark along the lane,;' said
the mother, ':and a bit Of candle
light would be ill-spared if you got
a tumble by It. I'll keep the cam
die burning till ye come back"
She was q hard featured Scotch
woman, healthy and active, though
no longer young, and, as she talked
she worked on, ironing the linen
she had washed and starched, and
heaping it, like a snowdrift, in q
great basket besides her. -Four
other children were in the room,
girls and boys too young to do much
for themselves, but Sandy was eigh-
teen, a tall, handsome fellow, with
ripe lips and cheeks, and dancing
eyes. IF Sandy only would have
been a little steadier,' the mother
often sighed; but to be "steady'
was Dot Sandy's forte. OFF, ever
and always to the riverside, where
other lounging boys watched the
boats come in at the ferry, or
plunged stones into the water for
the village pet, the great Newfound-
land, "Whiskers,' by name, to fetch
No harm in that, the mother thought
if the boys had all been good; but
evenings, at the store, they were
worse; and the decent Washerwoman
shivered as she listened to her boys
homecoming step at nights, lest
some day he should copy Squire
Peeler's boys and drink too much.
Squire Peelers boys were her terror,
though they were the sons Of the
richest man in the neighborhood.
But now, as Sandy stood in the door
so tall, and fair. an bonny, the
mothers heart grew light. He'd
be sure to settle down and help
her with the brains, some day"
she said. No doubt qfthat; be was
but q bit:boF now; and she igoned
on until her work was done, and
then put the candle in the window
to light the boy along the lane at his
home coming. The candle burnt
itself away and sunk into the Soc
ket, and the very wick smouldered
out, leaving only smell and smoke
behind it, and still lit no Sandy
across the threshold of his humble
home, for that night Sandy ran
away:
The life as home was too hard
for him. The restraints Of his
mothers watchful eye irked him.
To do his own will. to have his own
way, Sandy left his home behind
him, but he had grace enough to re-
member, with pang, these words:
"Ill keep the light burning till
We come back, Sandy"
Some vague hope Of being rich
and doing great things for those at
home, was in his mind, or he be.
lieved so; but selfish desire to es,
cape the drudgery and the res
traint gave the actual impulse to
his steps. He shipped as a sailor
the next day,and began in earnest
a wild and rackless sailors life.
It suited him. Now and then,
when the storm was at its height,
and far in the distance the lamps
of some tall lighthouse shone like
q great red eye, the tiny flicker Of
that window-sheltered candle would
dawn upon his memory, and he
would hear his mothers voice say
ing, Ill keep it burning uatil ye
come back. Sandy" Now and then
amid the yarns and songs of the
forecastle merry-making, he heard

lain. A rush and a roar from be-
low, where spirits were stored, end.
ed the words. There came blind,
ness and silence, and time paused
for him.
i X i
At last there was sound again.
The sound Of waters. Sight, the
red lamps Of the lighthouse. Feel
ing, that of the wet sand against
his face. Some strange providence
had saved Sandy Cameron's life,
Bruised and weak, he lay motion
less for long while. Bruised and
weak, still he staggered to his feet at
last.
Above him-his sailor eye used
to remember such things-towered
well-known rocks, kissed by strug-
Cling moonlight. The sea had flung
him into the arms Of his native sea-
port: and up above, man wander
ing along the shore, watching the
lighthouse signals, perhaps, was
singing 6 hymn:
There's light in the window for thee,
brother;
There's light in the window for thee"
And then the tears rolled down
the sailors cheeks, and his soften
ed heart yearned for the mother
who had said: I'LL keep the light
till We come back Sandy"
Twenty years ago, and she was
nearly fifty then. Probably she
was dead; but some one might be in
the old home yet, who could tell
him Of her. And so, in the mid
night darkness, the sailor staggered
up the river path, through the chang
ed streets, and, led by the compass
Of his heart, to the lane where his
boy hood home had been so long
before.
The lane was no more a street of
houses now; but at its end. or he
dreamt, Sandy saw q candle-gleam.
He drew nearer. No fancy misled
him. Yes, between the curtains
stood a candle, in very truth-and
in the window Of his own old home.
He staggered on, his heart beating
wildly. He struck the door with
his hand. He waited, trembling
and the door opened; at it stood an
old, old woman, with white hair
his mother. He knew her stern,
strong features and her blue eyes
still.
Whats this?" she said, in her
Scottish accent; and he answer
ed:
"A poor sailor, shipwrecked and
needing shelter.''
"Come in," she said, "come in
and warm ye. It's bitter night.
The candle led yc here, na don't.
It's burnt these twenty years.
Ye wonder at that? I'd a boy once.
He left me. The candle burns for
him. 1--we gone without bread,
many a time, to keep it burnin'.
The others are all dead; but I'll
not believe he's gone; and I said I'll
keep alight till We come back, San
dy-and 1 will"
And then, as he flung himself on
his knees before her. she knew that
Sandy had come back, indeed.
He never again forsook her. A
better son and a better man than
Sandy came to be, those of the sea-
port say they may never see again.
And if you 60 hither. they will
point you out the little cottage-win-
dow, at which, strong in her faith
for his return, Captain Cameron's
mother kept light burning for him
for all the nights for twenty years.

her son, now married and captain
of an ocean steamer, she yet lives
