Skill of the House Decorator.

The fact that hangings are Of pre-.
eminent service in imparting to Q
room a furnished and home-like look
is taken into account by the modern
house decorator. The most unlikely
spots are chosen for their display.
A bit Of drapery back Of statuette
or cast. q scarf thrown across the
corner Of q picture frame, another
softening tie outlines Of an easel or
mirror, all these are manifestations
Of the prevalent tendency. The low
book shelves that have superseded
the unwicldly glass cases that used
to lumber up one whole side Of a
room are adorned by draperies that
protect the apartments from dust.
Apartments Of limited size where
space is required for the opening
and shutting OF closet dCoTs,
may be perceptibly enlarged by re-
moving the doors and hanging por-
tiers in their places. White marble
mantels, those monuments to depart
ed IDEAS Of elegance. may be con-
cealed by fastening to slender rod
secured under the maptel shelfa pair
of curtains of plush, felt or tapestry
that can be slid back when q fire is
needed, or drawn together to shield
an empty CRATE or unsishtiy summer
front. \ board covered with mate
rial like the hangings, and edged
with fringe or tiny pendant balls,
may be laid over the mantel shelf.
\ pretty addition is q little curtain
about eighteen inches deep. run on q
rod fastened that distance above the
mantel. 1t gives . good background
for ornaments, and increases the ar
tistic appearance Of the room.-PhH-

If an anxious soul should come to
you to inquire the way of salvation,
could you intelligently point him to
Christ, or by referring him tc Scrip
ture, meet his difficulties and clear
away the doubts that cluster around
him? Ifnot, ought you not to so
qualify yourself? Ought you not to
be so posted in the truths Of the Bi-
bic that if one should be suddenly
convicted Of sin by your side, YOU
could at once without delay, let
him have help from Gods word?
Reader, what would you do in such a
case of spiritual need ?

Musical Benefit in School Room.

That musicis beneficial in the school
room, is a fact and an important
one.
Many weighty thoughts could be
brought to show this. We originate
nothing, our minds are mere outlines,
and we have that power to fill it as
may please us best.
Whether painting, poetry or music,
our agency consists in reception and
use. Let US, then, look more par
ticularly at the origin of what It
takes to make up the first principal
of the mind. The words of the
psalmist are: "Take psalm and
bring hither the tinbrel, the pleasant
harp with the psaltery." Then mu-
sic appears to be one of the most
sublime features in the school room,
as it is elsewhere. The school room
without music is almost similar 10 q
house without : mirror. We need not
aparaphrase to understand the press
ing need of music. We can't well
get along without it. The mind of
the pupil is microcosm, which only
requires to be inquired into and
developed to reveal that which it is
most perceptible of, or that which
takes hold Of the mind strongest.
Often times our pupils are very dull,
and there are few things that will in
terest them. Never despair of such
an one.
Suppose we give such q pupil or
pupils access to music. In most
cases he will take hold at once. and,
consequently, his mind is aroused.
He is inclined to look after things,
and animate other talents which
hitherto have been lying dormant.
How changed is his appearance!
His mind is related to higher
sphere. His aims are more lofty.
He learns to think for himself, and
act for himself.
Hence arise those noble principles
without which we descend into the
world naked, neryeless, with low
cares, strong necessities. animal
wants and desires.
"ris thine to raise and eternize the song,
Though human, yet divine, for should
not this
Raise man DER man and kindle seraphs
here.

A large number O

A large number Of our teachers
complain os the pupils giving them
so much trouble, whipping doesn't
subdue them. The fact is, their
manhood has been crushed, they care
not for teacher nor self. The judi
cious will overcome those things by
skillful management that calls for
more teaching tact than the rod in
the old satanic way. Teach that
selfrespect is the only road to moral
success. A large humber of our
teachers need just what they so often
give the children. I would recon-
mend J. Bolwin's school manage
ment to our teachers; and if they
study it and stick to its laws
success will certainly be theirs.

WASHINGTON, August 4.
The first session Of the forty-ninth
Congress, which will close this week,
has lasted u little over eight months.
During this period 1867 bills and 2Gl
joint resolutions have been introduced
in the two houses-3,9S bill and 203
joint resolutions in tie House, and 2,
S51 bills and So joint resolutions i'll the
Senate. OF this immense griat put III
Tie legislative hoppers only about $50
bills (olher than pension and other
private bill5) have become acts, and,
strange to shy, less than 20 Of these bills
can be considered to affect general in

are: The providing for tie perfOr-
nance of the duties OIL the Offices ofPTes-
idcnt in the rs of the removal, death,
OF resig nation or inability of both the
President and Vice-President;, tie
act 'lcgali2ing the Incorporation Of
national trades uuions;" the act ''re-
duciug the fee on domestic money So
the Dingley Shipping bill, and the act
" authorizing the construction Of q con-
gressioII0l library"
Six hundred and forty-two private
laws have been enacted during the scs-
son. or the public bills passed by
Congress the President has vetoed six,
while of the private acts he has vetoed
10l.
These are among the most important
measures which it is conceded will

and sagaciou} leader ship has eausd his
handsome mansion in Grameicy Park
TO be the Mecca Of many political pill
! qrimages.
lie was born at New Lebanon, New
York, February ., 1874. He was a
student at Yale College but left Oh ac-
count Of poor health and Afterwards
| flushed his education ut the UniVer-
J sity Of NewYork then studied law,
and admitted to New York bar, ae
CURED IA large fortune in his profess OIL.
He entered into politics al an carly age,
| and willie not seeking Office, became
| prominent as aleadcr of the Democratic
party, and for thirteen years was chair
| man of the State Democratic Commit
| teo. He was a member Of two Stale
| constitutional conventions tl6lG, 1860
! and served fol two terms in the New
York State Assembly (t34G, 1879.
In 1911 he took a prominent part in
exposing and bringing to punishment
a lanj of corrupt officials, known as
tie "Tammany Ring who had for
years plundered the treasury OF the
city of New York. In 1874 he was
nominated by the Democrats for Gov
ernor of the State, and although az the
previous election two years before the
the Republican candidate succeeded BY
a majority of $4,000, Mr.. Tilden now
was chosen by Il majority nearly as
large. in 1sTG he was the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency, rceeig-
ing a largo minority OF all the
popular votes cast. But when the
electoral vote was counted the electoral
Commission decided that Mr.. Hayes
was elected by one minority. lie will
always be known in history as the one
who was defrauded of his scat as Pres
idcnt.
Nj. Tilden occupies a very uniqu c
position in the political history of the
country. Although he WIS always Il
wise and sagacious leader and hiscoan-
sci was often sought yet he didnot seek
Office with the ambition of a politician
but wa3a safe leader of party pol

ovate his ogn party of its corrupt pros

of the people and its supremacy Of late
years. One Of the IN )st illHstrious cit
liens has expired. Although it is q
misfortune to his party to loose his wise
counsels yet it can profit by his exam
pies aud cherish his memory in coming
years along with its former leaders.

The TariG nrad the Working
EEasgH.

Every wage Garner in the country is in
terested in securing a~reduction of tariff
taxation. There are no people who are
more affected by the tax which ad Is to
the expense of clothes and dwellings
and food. The protected manufacturers
assert That they desire high rates OF
duty in order that they may pay high.
wages. This is untrue. They desire
high rates of duty in order that their
profits mag be the greater. If they
asked for duties for the workingmen
wages would be much higher Than they
are, not the bCumties received by the
manufacturers exceed all the wages
paid by them. The protected monopo-
lies are not the friends of the working
men. a high tariff means a limited
market, and j limited market, with a
government Incentive 10 complete for
it, means a glut of products, ard con-
sequent stoppage of work. 1t means
small earnings for operatives, and I'M
certain employment. For the last
three years the workingmen in the
mines and factories of Pennsylvania
have been idle quite halfthe time. The
idle days are not counted when the
manufacturer talks about the rate OF
wages. There is a vast difference be-
tween earnings and rates of wages.
Moreover, the protected manufacturers
have not dealt with tho w~orkingn9en as
literally as they profess to feel. Into Il
market made conveniently small they
have imported large numbers OF foreign
laborers for the purpose Of lowering
wages. Western Pennsylvania is crowd-
cd with Poles, II%ungarians and Buigar-
ians, who are content with pttance
upon which American workmglnen
would starve. New England manil-
fac.urer3 have imported foreign weav-
ers and spinuers, until the supply OF
labor is in excess of the demand dur
ing most of the year. The cry of dis
tress from ilescplaees has been irequen-
tly heard oflate, and the tariff is resloi :
sible for the cause. 1t makes living
high and Keeps the demand for labor
small aud uncertain, The working
men will DO happier and will have
steadicr employment and more salts
factory earnings when tile tafiff tax
shall be reduced NeD York Star.
