The HelDful Man.

There is a man." said his neighbor,
speaking of the village carpenter, "who
has done more good, l really believe, in
this community than any other person
who ever lived in it. He isn't worth
two thousand dollars, and it's but little
that he can put down on subscription
paper for any object But new family
never moves into the village that he
does not find them out to give them a
neighborly welcome, and offer any little
service he can render He is usually on
the lookout to give strangers seat in
his pew at church. He is always ready
to watch with sick neighbor and look
after his affairs for him, and l have
sometimes thought he and his wife kept
house plants in winter just for the sake
of being able to send little boquets to in
valids. He finds time for pleasant
word for every child he meets, and you'll
always find them climbing into his one
horse wagon when he has no other load
He really seems to have a genius for
helping folks in all sorts of common
ways, and it does me good every day
Just to meet him on the street."

Winter Fashions .
From Godey's Lady's Book.1
Beads are in great favor.

From Godey's Lady's Book.
Beads are in great favor.
With dresses of wooden, bOnnets and
hats en- suite are worn.
Wool ribbons, that looks like bands of
Astrakan fur, are decided novelty.
Plomb. the new lead color, is highly
popular, but not generally becoming.
a novelty in hat trimmings is velvet,
ornamented with nails made of jet hav-
ling the points turned upward.
Green combines well with brown, gar
net OF pink, and such combinations are
now in good style.
Blush moonlight and blue steel beads,
mixed with smaller quantity OF bronze
or grenat beads, form some or the most
beautiful trimmings that can be OBJ
tanned.
High loops of ribbon are arranged in
front of bonnets, and are intermixed
with slender wings or quills, powdered
with beads or diamond dust.
A novelty is set consisting of hat
or cap and muff with boa attached. One
of black velvet is trimmed with astra-
kan and rosettes and loo bows of rib
bon, with Innings of bright primrose
satin.
listers and English long coats are
made of different autumn fabrics, and
are richly garnitured with silk cord ap-
pliques made so fine and delicate as to
greatly resemble embroidery when set
upon the wrap.
Some of the largest and most expen-
sive fans are painted i'll oils or water
colors, not only in designs of flowers and
| fruits, but in landscapes.
For the neck and wrists of travelling
dresses, the inside fold is now made Of
repped pique cut on the bias. At least
| an inch of the fold shows above the coll
lar of the dress-a severe style that is
not becoming to many.
Tinsel is not as popular for ordinary
dress trimmings and bOnuets, but is now
largely used for evening robes. wraps,
and in the smaller articles of womaDs
toilet. Many handsome black fans are
decorated with it.
Arrasene embroidery makes rich
and stylish trimming for cashmere and
wool house dresses. The work is quick
IL done, and small flowers of brilliant
colors, mingled with leaf sprays and
mosses, produce a beautiful effect with
comp paratively a small outlay of means
or labor.

Too Professional

In Western city lives an undertaken,
by name Brown, great wag, and always
ready to play joke; also a doctor who
is joker, and is always ready to tell on
himself, and "monument-maker" who
is of tie same kidney.
One day the doctor was driving at full
speed down a business street when
Brown spied him. Brown was in his
wagon with the sign of his profession on
the side. Whipping up his horse, he
came as close to the doctor as possible
and glancing round, he spied the monu-
ment-maker. Calling to the monument
maker to hurry up, Brown called out:
go on, doctor, go on; we're coming"
The doctor looked round, and dismay
was pictured on his countenance. He
whipped up his horse, but all to no pur
pose, the undertaken and the monument
maker following closely. At last the ri,
diculous part of the thing strDck him,
and leaning back in his buggy he gave
vent to his laughter, in spite of the
thought, "Whata sign for a prominent
physician this isl"-Editor's Drawer, in
Harper's Magazine for November.

Youth studies how best to live; old
age studies most how best how to die.
A woman doesn't worry as much over
how she is to gain a crown of glory, as
she does how she is to gain new bon
net.
A mothers tears are the same in all
languages.
When a mans pocket book outgrows
his honesty, it is time to call the police.
A hungry man doesn't throw bread
out of the window because it isn't pie.
When an editor becomes greater than
his paper. the latter's usefulness begins
to lesson.
A dollar decreases in size in the same
ratio that mans heart gets bigger.
1t never occurs to a fashionable wo-
man that there is enough goods in the
train of her dress to make poor child a
pretty Sunday frock.
1t isn't as far from the top of the hill
to the bottom, as it is from the bottom
to the top.
The toughest roads are those we have
net travelled over.
Whoever is not afraid to pray is not
afraid to fight.

A DANGEROUS SURGICAL OPERATIoN.-A
fatal mistake; at the time DR. Vance of Cleve-
and, performed the operation on the lady for
the removal Of a cancer of the stomach he
found when too late that the poor woman had
digestion. and if she had taken the Shaker
Extract of Roots (Siegels Syrup that awful
distress at the pit of the stomach, which made
the doctors think she had cancer, would have
been removed; distress after eating, dull, heavy
feeling in the head, with pains in the side and
back, all vanish after using this wonderful
remedy; the tired, languid feeling gives place
to strength and vigor. Mrs Della Marsh writes
from Pea Ridge, Benton county, Arkansas,
that she had dyspepsia in the worst form for
five years, and that nothing gave any relief
until she used the Siegel Syrup; she says that
two bottles cured her.

THE WAY TO SING.

The birds must know. Who wisely sings
Will sing as they.
The common air has generous wings;
Songs make their way.
No messenger to run before,
Deyising plans;
No mention of the place OF hour
To any man.
No waiting till some sound oetrays
A listening ear;
No different voice-nO new delays
If steps draw near.
"What bird is that? The song is good;
And eager eyes
Go peering through the dusky wood
In glad surprise.
Then. late at night when by his fire
The traveller sits,
Watching the flame go brighter, higher,
The sweet song fits
By snatches through his weary brain,
To help him rest.
When next he goes that road again
An empty nest
On leahess bough will make him sigh:
'Ah, me! last spring
Just here [ heard, in passing by,
That rare bird sing.
But while he sighs. remembering
How sweet the song,
The little bird on tireless wing
Is borne along
In other air; and other men
With weary feet,
On other roads the simple strain
Are finding sweet.
The birds must know. Who wisely sings
Will sing as they.
The common air has generous wings;
Songs make their way.

HOE OUT YOUR ROW

One day lazy farmers boy
Was hoeing out the corn,
And moodily had listened long
To hear the dinner horn.
The welcome blast was heard at last,
And down he dropped his hoe;
But the good man shouted in bis ear,
"My boy, hoe out your row..
Although a "hard one" was the row,
To use a plowman's phrase,
And the lad, as the sailors have it,
Beginning well to "haze' =
81 can," he said, and manfully
He seized again his hoe;
And so the good man smiled to see
The boy hoe out his row.
The test the lad remembered,
And proved the moral well,
That perseverance to the end
At last will nobly tell.
Take courage, man resolve you can,
And strike vigorous blow;
In life's gfeat field of varied toll,
Always hoe out your row.

How Indiln Paint Their Faces.

The Indians have, without much
doubt, been called red men on account
of the universal custom of painting
their faces and bodies, and for this
purpose they used ine clays containing
different oxides of iron. Since the
establishment of their trading stores
they purchase these ochres to a great
extent, but usually have some OF a
similar character which they have
themselves found. Some advantages
are claimed in the use of these paints
as protection against the rigors of
the climate, both the icy winds of the
north and the torrid summers of the
south, but it is also because of their
superstitions in regard to it. viz, that
it is conducive to good luck, and that
its original use was in obedience to the
direct command of Col. In applying
it, an Indian puts little ochre and
grease in the palm of the hand, and
then the palms are rubbed together to
thoroughly mix and obtain the proper
consistency; this is used for the flat
tints" and the stripings and fancy
touchei are put on afterwards Some
Indians take more kindly to particu-
ar color, imagining that 1t gives better
luck than another. When the paint Is
rubbed on the face the eyes are closed.
SO that the ills may have their full
share, AMI it may be for this reason
that some tribbs pull out the eyelashes.
as these, by holding an extra allow
ance, might cause irritation of the
eyes. The skin of many Indians

Paper Making In China.

Eighteen hundred years ago the Chi
nese made paper from fibrous matter
reduced to pulp. Now each province
makes its own peculiar variety. The
young bamboo is whitened, reduced to
pulp in mortar, and sized with alum.
From this pulp sheets of paper are
made in mold by hand. The cele
brated Chinese rice paper, that so re-
sembles woolen and silk fabrics, and
on which are painted quaint birds and
flowers, is manufactured from COM
pressed pith. which is first cut spirally
by keen knife into thin slices six in
ehes wide and twice as long. Funeral
papers, or paper limitations of earthly
things which they desire to bestow on
departed friends, are burned over
their graves. They use paper window
frames, paper sliding doors, and paper
visiting cards yard long. 1t is rela-
ted that when a distinguished repre-
sentative of the British Gov, rnme1.
visited Pekin several servants brought
him huge roll, which, when spread
out on the floor, proved to be the Wis
iting card of the Emperor.
