A Mothers Care.

A woman gifted at running "grab-
bag" sOcials called on mother, say
ing, ave have many useless articles
that must be disposed of somehow.
We've concluded to place them all
on one table, under the charge of our
most fascinating young ladies. Gen.
tlemen will chat with them, then
cannot go away without buying
something; and the ladies can put
their own prices on the articles.
We really want your daughter, she
has such winning ways" Seeing in
dignation gathering in this noble
mothers face, and knowing how
carefully she had guarded her child
rem from social contamination, she
added, "Of course, she will have to
play the agreeable to a good many
you might not approve; still she
need not recognize them afterward."
"What!" exclaimed the mother, sal.
low my daughter to become a decoy
to lure money out of mems pockets
in return for shams and false smiles:
NEVER! l hold my child's moral ma
ture too sacred for that"

The Pattern was Out.

a lady walked into city store Il
few days ago, and inquired for the
carpet department, to which she was
conducted. You see," 81 bought a
piece of carpet here for my parlor,
and Samuel, my husband, says moth
ing will do but we must have some
more like it. So want to get the
remnant. | don't remember the
clerk that waited on me, but I'd
know the carpet if l set eyes on it,"
Three clerks were kept busy an hour
and a half unrolling carpeting for her
Identification, but the desired rem
nant didn't come to light. "Dear
me, this is very Disappointing" said
the lady, in a tone of vexation; II
felt sure | could find the rest of it,"
"When did you buy the goods, mad.
am?'inquired the clerk. sob, twen-
ty-two or three years ago. l know
it was just about the time of Lees
surrender, and Samuel wished to cell
citrate, and-""Ah, madam" said
the clerk, 81 fear the remnant has
been Sold"

Read this for a Change.

Perhaps some wives would like to
cut out the following and paste it in
their husbands hats:
l. Always come home good-tem-
pered, leaving business cares behind,
and do not vent annoyances met
with at the Office on your wife and
family.
2. Make yourself agreeable to your
wife and friends and do not sit glum
all the evening, looking utterly
bored.
8. Be lenient to your wife's faults,
and do not expect perfection until
you have first become perfect your
self.
4. Be punctual at meals. Remem-
Der a cook cannot keep dinner
waiting without its being spoiled:
Do not expect each servant to have
two pairs of hands.
5. Do not expect your wife to keep
accounts unless you take tine trouble
to keep your own correctly.
6. Dress as well and as neatly as
your means will allow, and be care
full not to get your best trousers wet,
as baggy knees are thing no woman
can respect.
7. Be as kind and attentive to your
wife as you were before your
marriage, and remember she has no
pipe to 60 to for comfort.
s. When your liver is out of order
remember food cannot be palatable ;
therefore do not grumble and turn
over on your plate what your wife
has provided for you as if it were not
fit for a dog to eat.
8. If you have a wife who does
keep her house in order, is not con-
stantly at war with the servants, is
not extravagant, has meals regularly
and we'll served, and does her best to
please, let her see you appreciate
her, otherwise she will cease TO try
and make your home comfortable
and in due course your troubles al
home will be infinitely worse than
any you may have at the Office.

The Clasp Of the Wedding Ring.

"The superstitious dread that some
married ladies have of taking off their
wedding ring leads sometimes to
much trouble for them," said lead
ing jeweler the other day. "Once we
were called upon to do a very nice
job owing to this feeling. A married
woman had grown quite stout after
she had changed her state, and the
ring began to cut her flesh and play
the mischief generally. Still she had
a horror of removing it, for fear it
would ALLEVIATE her husbands love or
bring some other domestic disaster.
She wouldn't even slip it off long
enough to have it enlarged in the
usual way, that is, by cutting and
filling in, and then uniting the ring
again. In this emergency, our work.
man who attends this branch of the
business said he believed he could en-
large the ring without taking it off
the lady's finger. 1t would be long
and delicate and costly operation, he
said, but he was willing to try it if
the lady wished. She gladly consent
ed and the job was begun. The
workman went to the lady's house
with his tools, and for two days,
night and day, he toiled over that
ring. She insisted that he must not
so much as sunder its circle, and he
did not. Very carefully and patient
ly his tools rubbed away one side OF
the ring, which was then pried apart
so as to make V shaped gap. This
was filled with metal and fused
Then the other side of the ring was
operated on in the same manner, and
so on back and forth in a see-saw two
or three times, till gradually belt o.
new gold had been inserted cleal
across"
cit was a mighty ticklish job ir
more ways than one. The flesh hat
to be carefully protected against thu
hot metal; the saving and cutting
hurt the sensitive finger, already in
famed by the binding ring, and thu
woman couldn't sleep for excitemen
and fear, lest while unconscious sh'
might break the already weakened
pledge she wore. So she kept thu
man hard at it, except for short nal
on the lounge and his meals, till thu
thing was fixed and she could slip i
easily around her finger.
"She paid us our bill without
murmur, or rather her husband did
and she seemed very grateful ant
happy. But if she were to get fatte
still and the ring hurt again | dom
believe she would have the operation
repeated"
"Why?" asked the reporter.
Because" answered the jeweler
dryly, "since then she has got di
vorce."

For Men Who Own Horses.

Never wash a horse with cold water
when he is heated.
Feed your horses regularly three
times daily, but never overfeed.
Water before feeding, but not while
the horse is hot from work.
Use the whip very little, and never
when the animal SHES or stumbles.
Never leave a horse standing UNI
hitched. 1t is the way to make them
runaways.
Do not storm and fret. Be quiet
and kind, and the horse will be so
too, in most cases.
Give the horse large stall and a
good bed at night. 1t is important
that he lie down to rest.
Do not expect your horse to be
equally good at everything. The
horse, like the man, must be adapted
to his work.
Near the close OF journey let the
horse walk. If covered with sweat
rub off with rag, to prevent too sud-
den cooling.
Collar gals and bruises are benefit
ed by washing with salt water. Wash
shoulders daily when using the horse.
Brine is good also for stiff joints.
When flies are bad, wash the horse
all over lightly with a weak solution
of carbolic acid. If you have not the
acid, apply surgeons oil on the
TANKS, neck, and tender parts.

The Commercial Value of Old Boots
and Shoes.

The Journal of the Constantinople
Chamber of Commerce describes the
industrial uses of old boots and shoes
which are thrown into the streets or
into ash pits. After being collected,
they are ripped open, and the leather
is subjected to treatment which rem
ders it pliable mass, from which a
kind of artistic leather is derived.
This, in appearance, resembles the
finest Cordova leather. In the Unit
ed States patterns are stamped on this,
while in France it is used to cover
trunks and boxes. The old boots and
shoes are also treated in another way,
by which they are converted into new
ones. The prisoners in Central
France are employed in this way, the
old shoes csming chiefly from Spain.
They are taken to pieces as before,
the nails being all removed, and the
leather IS soaked in water to soften it..
The uppers for children's shoes are
then cut from it. The soles are also
used, for from the smaller pieces of
the leather from the old soles the So
called Louis XIV heels for ladies shoes
are made, while the soles for child
ren's shoes are made from the larger
and thinner pieces. The old nails are
also put to use, for by means of mag
nets the iron nails and the tacks and
brads are separated and sold. The
contractors of the military prison at
Montpelier say that these nails alone
pay for the old shoes. Nothing now
remains but the scraps, and these also
have their value, for they are much
sought after by certain specialists for
agricultural purposes.

The Benefit of Snow.

Farmers Home.
Travellers in Northern climes such
as Siberia have found that the snow
is beneficent provision on the part of
nature to protect the soil against
the rigOrs of temperature falling
often seventy or eighty degrees be-
low zero, as was reported last Octo-
Der year ago. The snow coming
early in the season, and being an al
most absolute non-conductor of heat,
serves as an effective covering for
the soil, and not only the fall wheat
but the ground itself is well protected
and is ready for tillage as soon as the
snow in the early part of May disap-
pears. Without the snow covering
the ground, it would freeze to such a
depth that it could not be plowed
before the end of July, and even then
it would be too cold for the germina-
ton of seed, and the season too short
for ripening crop.
This accounts for the paradox OF
Siberian vegetation, which is so lux
urant in the summer while the heat
! OF the long days continues.

Good Nature.

There is no possession so valuable
which can be secured at so little cost,
as that of good nature. 1t is tails
man for good wherever it is seen. 1t
emulates, elevates and purifies. 1t
laughs at trials, SCOTS at vexation,
and speedily dispels gloom and des-
pair.
He who has good nature finds
friends where those of contrary dis
position see only enemies. He who
can smile easier than frown is bles-
sing to all whom he meets; and best
ofall he usually seems as unconscious
of his power as is the gladdening sun
beam, or as are the flowers Of their
influence through their beauty and
perfume.
The good naturned man is the
large natured man. He loves every
body and is ever ready to render a
kind act, while nine times out of ten
he neither knows or cares whether
the world is aware of the deed or not.
He is courageous and full of enthu-
siasm. If he fails in a financial
scheme he is willing to makeanother
attempt. If misfortune overtakes
him, he calmly admits to himself:
at might have been worse"-like
the sailor who, on breaking limb in
falling from the mainmast ofhisship,
exultingly exclaimed: "Thank for
tune, it wasn't my neck"
The good natured man is always
strong in his power, and is far more
wealthy that the man Of gloomy
disposition, with an estate worth ten
thousand yearly.
The good natured man is the hap.
Ply man, the contented man and the
possessor of an approving mind and
sunny soul. For him the sky is
clearer; the atmosphere more balmy
the hills greener and more symmet'
rical, and all the fruits Ofnature more
abundant. Were he asked why he
loved Christ he could scarcely furnish
the reason. He cannot help it with
his noble nature.
Can we not clearly see that such &
spirit gives the true evidence of 8
faith and trust in the divine Father,
Does it not correspond with that
which is holy. in uplifting of the
truth which alone renders all mer
favorable IN the sight of God?

How to Succeed.
Philadelphia Ledger.

Philadelphia Ledger.
Those who wish to succeed must
begin by putting the idea of "luck"
behind them. If they will inquire
into the cause of the achievements of
the successful men about them, they
will find that in nearly all cases they
fairly roseby their shrewdness, en-
ergy and thrift. If they will SINH
larly inquire into the cause of those
unsuccessful men about them who
are commonly called "unlucky," be-
ing unsuccessful, they will almost
invariable find it to be sloth, extrav-
agance or drink, or other folly. 1t
will take no one long to discover
why the "unlucky" man has not sue
ceeded; he may, and will, no doubt,
ascribe it to want of "luck," but 9TH
ers who know his weaknesses of char
acter will ascribe it to a more tan.
gible cause. The man of fair
intelligence, ofgenuine courage, ready
to take hard knocks, to push towards
the foremost place, to watch for and
seize the opportunity, to work stead
lily at his task, to be frugal, to be
economical, and to be honest, need
not vainly wish for "luck." Such q
man will always have "luck," fol
whatever there is of it lies in intelli
gence, endeavor and integrity.
