and you do, don't youP you NUS ae
gentle and unselfish. You must do at
home and at school what she did in the
great city. Every little girl can be a
loaf giver, even if the only loaf she has
to give is look of sympathy and q
kind word. Every little girl can find
in her little circle those who are hungry.
1t may not be for bread, but for en-
couragement. They thirst for the cup of
cold water that one heart can pour into
another.
met little lady at picnic last
spring. She was very pretty, and pref
tily dressed. Seeing poor girl sitting
by herself and evidently despised by
the richer ones, she we,t and talked
with her pleasantly, and divided her
box of bon-bons with her. and insisted
upon her having a place in the game
that was being made up. When play
mate said, scorufully: "Ida, you must
find something wonderfully attractive
in that girls calico dress, freckled face
and carroty hair" 81 do was the
reply; ''the attraction for me is in her
homeliness and her poverty. She needs
sympathy. | am drawn to her just as
Jesus was drawn to the publcans and
sinners when He was on the earth. If
we trample on such girls they will go
down deep into the mire. But if we
reach out our hands to them and help
them, we may place their feet on the
rock and put new song into their
mouths. lyou, Julia, don't want
to live like butterfly. | want to do
some good in the world and my mother
tells me that the way to do good is to
watch for little opportunities and to inn
prove them" If God spares that little
girls life she will grow up noble wom-

Concrete Walks.

A concrete or cement walk can be
made in this way, which requires no
great skill in preparing the materials:
Take water lime and gravel OF ashes, or
both. The gravel and ashes should be
put in heap and wet Mix one barrel
of water lime with sharp, clean sand,
dry, being shoveled over back and forth
several times to get thorough mixture.
A portion is then mixed with water into
thin, soft mortar and five parts of
the wet gravel or ashes are well mixed
with it, SO that every fragment is coated
with the combining mortar. This is
important tor obvious reasons. This
concrete is spread on the graded walk
and beaten down with hammer until
the moisture gathers on the surface.
Some of the dry sand or cement is then
scattered over the surface to absorb the
moisture, and the surface is smoothed
over with a rubber having a sloping
handle to work it back and forth. In
few days this will become hard, and
harder with time. BY making divisions
of thin strips of wood or tarred paper
this cement may be laid down in blocks,
squares or diamond shaped, and for
extra good walks the blocks may be
colored by mixing the finish coat with
brown, gray, or other colors alternately.
A clean walk from the front gate to the
house is almost a necessity, and adds
considerably to the appearance of the

Family Love.

If there be anything which makes
life worth the living it is to be one of
an aff'ectionate fanny. Strange to say,
however, most people could count up
the really nice families they know-th the
family, that is, in which there is not only
tender care for each other, but an I'M
selfish department and kindly interest
always manifested by every member of
the home circle toward every other fell
low-member. The daughters will
always fetch their mother anything she
may want, and brush their brothers
top coats and hats for them ere the
male members of the house start off for
work in the morning. The lads, too,
will often take their sisters for a walk,
or pay them little attentions which cost
nothing and mean a great deal. This
is the household into which a young
man who wants good wife will do
well and wisely to marry. There may
not be much show about the girls, but
he will find they are aifectionate, and
their dispositions stand the test of wear.
1t is easy enough to fall in love with a
girl when she is arrayed for q party,
and feels the flush and pleasure OF fun.
When life deepens and darkens, how
ever, and little family worries come in,
a man wants something more than a
pretty drawing-room ornamented for q
wife; he needs real good heared, hon
est, womanly soul and helpmate. -

,ven if you have chronic nasal catarrh in
its worst stages, for although this amount
of reward has for many years been offered
by the proprietors of DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, for any case of catarrh they can
not cure yet notwithstanding that thou
sands use the Remedy they are seldom
called upon to pay the reward, and when
they have been so called upon they have
univ ersally found that the failure to cure
was wholly due to some overlooked compli-
cation, usually easily removed by slight
modification of the treatment. Therefore,
if this should meet the eye of anybody who
has made faithful trial of this great and
world-famed Remedy without receiving a
perfect and permanent cure therefrom, that
person will do well to either call upon or
write to the proprietors, the Worlds Dis
pensary Medical Association, of Buffalo,
N. Y, giving all the particulars and symp-
toms in the case. By return mail they will
get good advice free Of all costs.

The natives of Tartary have an in
genious way of providing for girls
They betroth them as early as possible
to some likely young man, and then if
anything happens to prevent the mar
rage he is bound to take the next sister,
and so on in rotation. This plan at
least obviates any feeling of jealousy
among relations. Every girl in family
knows she has an equal chance. If the
young man happens to have strong dis
inclination to the alliance he can buy
himself off for consideration.

THE SHAkEMAKERS.
-. Class of Industrious People Who Are
Little Known to the World.

Glass of Industrious People Who Are
Little Known to the World.
Living just above the foothills and in
the midst of the virgin pine forests of
the Sierras are class of industrious
people little known to the world. They
live an isolated, happy life far from the
busy world, of which they know little
and care less. These are the "shake-
makers. " They exist usually in couples,
and make their home for the time being
where the finest sugar pine grows, and
whence the products of their labors can
be conveniently hauled away. They are
a jolly, happy lot, these ''shakemakers'
of the Sierras. They work at will, and
by way of recreation divide their leisure
time between deer and bear hunting and
the nearest country store. The mode
of making "shakes" or clapboards is
simple. The tree felled is sawed into
sula6le lengths, and then is split into
thin boards or ''shakes" by means of a
froe and a mallet. The shakes sell here
in the mountains at 81 to $3.50 per
1000, and are always in demand. A
shakemakers' camp is one of the most
picturesque scenes to be found on the
coast and the voluntary recluses who
spend year after year in these mountain
solitudes are the jolliest lot of bachelors
on earth. A majority of this almost
unknown race of men are old miners
and young men from the foot-hill farms.
Wild, brave, uneducated and kind
hearted, they include within their num-
bers hundreds of the best frontiersmen
and the noblest types of manhood
