THE BEAUTIFUI,

Beautiful faces are those that wear
1t matters little if dark or fair
Whole-souled honesty printed there.
Beautiful eyes are those that show
Like crystal panes where earth fires glow,
Beautiful thoughts that burn below.
Beautiful lips are those whose words
Leap from the heart like songs OF birds,
Yet whose utterance prudence girds.
Beautiful hands are those that do
Work that is earnest, and brave and true,
Moment by moment the long day through.
B autiful feet are those that 60
On kindly ministry to and fro,
Down lowliest ways, if God wills il So
Beautiful shoulders are those that bear
Ceaseless burdens Of homely care
With patience, grace and daily prayer.
Beautiful lives are those that bless
Silent rivers of happiness,
Whose hidden fountains but few may guess.
Beautiful twilight at set of sun,
Beautiful goal with race well run,
Beautiful rest with work well done.
Beautiful arave where grasses creep,
Where brown leaves fall, where drifts lie deep
Over WORKOUT hands-oh beautiful sleep!

IT Is very pleasant each year to find that the
gardens are becoming more and more the
fashion, for there is as much fashion in flowers
is most other things. For long time we did
not see or hear of the dear sweet old Chrysan-
themums but suddenly they were revived and
Ire now cultivated to such degree that they
have reached perfection. In the north this
fear there was perfect mania for tulips
The early Dutch settlers brought the tulip to
New York and the flowers have always been
more or less popular, but never so much so as
the present season. The beds of these CAV
bright flowers in all the squares and public
parks were very beautiful this spring. They
were in every conceivable color and variety
bolid colors, striped and variagated. The tulip,
originally an oriental flower, was exported
from Persia to Italy in 1877, and very soon be-
came popular throughout Europe. In 1854 the
tulip mania broke out in Holland and it has
been related of some of the old families that
they paid fabulous sums for rare species; lust
rs some rich people do these days for orchids.
One bulb of the tulip known as the "Semper
Augustus" is said to have been purchased
after great deal of bargaining for two thous-
and dollars and carriage and q pair of
valuable horses. Another brought four thouS-
and and eight hundred, and another two
thousand and five hundred. There was as
much speculation IN these bulbS at that time
rs there is now with us in other things. In
the old Dutch town of Harlem it is said
speculation ran so high that the income from
1t reached 100000 pounds sterling in three
years, and finally the government interfered
and put stop to tulip gambling. We could
scarcely imagine this state of affairs when we
look at such a simple modest little flower as
the tulip. We hope before many years have
passed that the dehlia Will come in for its share
of attention.

Recipe for Preserving Roses.-Obtain one half
peck of fine, dry d. G., without dew rose leaves take
large china or glass bowl strew handful of table
salt on the bottom, then three handouts of leaves
andso on till the leaves used cover the top with
salt and put lid on the bowl. Let this remain for
five days, stirring and turning the mass twice day
The leaves should now appear moist and should
have added to them three ounces of bruised alspice
and one ounce of bruised cinnamon stick. This
forms what is known as the stock
Allow 1t TO remain one week, stirring daily from
top to bottom. Put in the permanent JAR or other
vessel one ounce of allspice, and while adding the
stock layer by layer, sprinkle between the layers
tie following mixture:
ounce of cloves, l ounce of cinnamon, nut
megs, (all these carefully ground to POWDER, 9
ounces Of gener root Sliced, a ounce OF bruised
anse seed, grains Of best musk, "a pound of fine
dried lavender flowers, ounces offnely sliced orris
root If deslred, moisten from time to time with
little pure alcohol or with cologne water.
If this is kept on hand, and new flowers added
from time to time, the fragrance is enhanced; the
other flowers, however, should all be sweetsmeling
ones, vioets being especially delightful, while
pansies, trailing arbutus, heliotrope, tuberoses
mignonette and rose geranium each have devoted
lovers, and some people mix them all together in
one pot.

Good to Remember.

When Cinder Gets in the Eye.--A writer in the
Medical Summary presents a novel way of getting a
clnder out OF the eye He truly remarks that when
one gets cinder in his eye he at once commences
to rub the affected organ few years since riding
on the engine of fast express, this writer got a
cndcr in his own eye. The engineer told him to
stop rubbing the affected eye, but to apply his
fingers eneTgeticaly to the other one. At first this
advice was taken for JOKE but the engineer was in
earnest, remalking, 81 know you doctors think you
know it all but il you will let that eye alone and
rub the other one the cinder will be out in two
minutes" The advice was taken and in a few
moments the offender was ON his cheek Since then
the one who relates the incident says that he has
tried it many times and has advised it in many
others and has never known it 10 fail. Therefore,
let it be tried. When you find a cinder tickling
your eye let that one alone, but Immediately pro-
coed to rub the other.
