How to be Beautiful.

TO he beautiful we mist cultivate
the mind and develop the heart in
the highest degree.
We must feed the mind by read.
ing and meditation until the intel
lectual fire burns with a steady
fame, irradiating the face with its
pure brllliancy and suffusing the
countenance with a calm and holy
light; we must fill the brain with
holy thoughts, and live, as it were,
in an atmosphere of grand ideas
which will lift us up above the BELT.
Ting cares ofearth.
We must cherish every kind i'm
pulse and generous disposition, max
ing love the ruling passion of the
heart, the ordering principle and
inspiring motive of life. The more
kindness the more beauty; the more
love the more loveliuess.
We must put great organizing
and enrolling purpose into the will,
and concentrate our thoughts and
affections upon the accomplishment
of it, until enthusiasm wells up in
the heart, suffusing the countenance
and rebuilding the body on its own
divine plan.
And this is the beauty that is abb
ding. Mere physical good looks
fade with the years, bleach out with
sickness, and yield to the slow decay
of mortality. But the beauty that
has its origin in kind dispositions
and noble purposes and great
thoughts outlasts youth and maturl-
ty, and increases with age, and like
the lucious peach that comes to us
in autumn ripeness, covered with
the delicate flush of purle aud GRIM
son, is never so beautiful as when
waiting to be plucked by the gard
ner's hand, silently witnessing to
the full, rich perfection time works
out.

WHEN THOU ART AWAY.
BY MRS. HAZE j. ROY.


l am thinking of thee and am lonely Tonight,
For when thou art gone, there is nothing seems
bright;
1 wander about, caring nowhere to stay,
For home is not home when thou art away
Why is II, wonder, that souls do entwine
So closely In life, as mine unto thine,
That II rifted apart. but If for day
They sorrow and pine for the other away,
Oh, darling, what charm does thy presence
possess
That 1t never once ceases my being to bless;
IT'S halo of love far brighter than day
Only dimmed in its lustre, when thou art
away
Thou art near. / feel. so near me to- night
In spirit and love, If not in my sight,
And Icould notify goodness with lov ing repay,
Were other than happy, whilst thou art away.
The rapture of meeting with the loved ones at
home
When our pleasures are past and as homeward
we come,
For the pain of our absence does often repay
Andwe love our homes better for being away.
Yet SO lonely feel in the quiet of eve,
My soul in its longing seems only to grieve,
But breathing my thoughts in this love-laden
lay,
dream thou art near me and not far away.
God bless thee tonight. wherever thou art,
Whether absent or present thy home is my
heart,
May angels of gladness hover round thee for
aye,
To guard thee and guide thee while thou art
away. Et

own living to earn somehow. There
wasn't an inkling of romance in hel
life, except what she had uncons

Her two sisters were both married.
Mrs. Simon Sykes and Mrs. John
Smith-and each of them looked out
industriously for Number One.
"Eveleen has had an education, ?

of herself. OF course one wants to
be sisterly, and all that sort of thing

he didn't expect to marry the whole
family"

"She can't expect us to support
her."
She was mending pair of gloves,
one October afternoon, by the win
dow, when Mrs. Simon Sykes walked
in, with great rustling, and smell
of patchouli.
Mrs. Simon Sykes-nee Deborah
Blake-was tall, and large, and
rosy. Eveleen was on the petite
scale, with large, limpid grey eyes,
very little color, and straight, brown
hair, which shone and glistened like
satin, in the level rays of the de.
clining sun.

brought out plate of rusks, which
were to have made her own frugal
meal.
But | can eat biscuit or so,"
said self-denying little Eveleen, as
she watched the rusks disappear
before Mrs. Simon Sykes appetite.
"I've had such "a turn" said Mrs.

weight.
We have talked good deal lately to the
public, and we are now satisfied that ii

patrons. We have made great many
new customers and also have welcomed
a large number of old ones. All have been
greatly surprised at our prices and have
eagerly awaited themselves of the Oppor-
tunity to replenish their wardrobes at a
profitable saving. Since / have intro
duced my fashionable and well made
clothing the tailor shop has lost its
charms for very large class of people,
and really the difference is no difference
at all, as by my system of having all of my
suits made according to special super
vision and instruction there can be no
possible chance of a misft or lack of
variety of shapes and patterns. l am
using every effort now to run down my

ensues, and price is no object. 109 BrOugh-
