Woman's Bew.tehing Laugh.

A woman has not q natural grace
more becoming than sweet laugh. 1t
is like the sound Of flutes on the water.
1t leaps from her heart in = clear,
sparkling rill. and the heart that hears
it feels as if bathcd in the cool. exhil.
arating spring. And so Of the smile.
A beautiful smile is to the female
cOuntenance what the sunbeam Is to
The landscape. 1t mbcllishcs an in

A smile, h,wever. should not becom.
habitual. or insipidity is the result;
nor should tho mouth break into a
smile OH one side, the other remaining
passive and unmoved. for this imparts
AL air Of deceit and grotesqueness to
the face. A disagrceable laugh or smile
distOrts the lines of beauty. and is
more repulsive than frown. There
are many kinds of smiles. each having
a distinctive character; some announce
goodness and sweetness: others betray
sarcasm. bitterness and pride; some
soften the cOuntenance by their Ian
gushing tenderness; others brighten
it by their brilliant and spiritual Vi
vacity. Gazing and posing before
mirror can not aid in acquiring beau
tiful smiles half SO well as to turn the
gaze inward, to watch that the heart
keeps unsullied from the reflection of
evil. and is illumined and beautified
by all sweet thoughts N y Ledger.

The life-Savinx Service.

The life-saving service was created
by act of Congress and has grown
steadily since its creation. Life sta
tiOns are established at various points
on the lake and ocean coasts. At
these stations a lookout is kept f,r
boats in distress and aid is sent. The
manner of rescue is exciting and daa-
gerOus. When the wrecked boat Is
approachable (weather and her position
permitting). surf boat is launched
through the breakers. and the life
savers go to the rescue. This is att
tended with great danger. and many
deeds of heroism are credited to the
life-savers. When not apprOachable
in this way. mortar is taken to where
the wreck is situated, and 4 cylinder,
with a coil of rope attached, is fired
across the spars of the boat. when a
larger rope is hauled out by the ship
wrecked sailors. On this is suspended
little car or receptacle. into which
the crew is placed one Mt time aud
hauled ashore. Many lives have been
saved and valuable assistance rendered
to shipping by the serviee-1olsd

With all fits joys so tender;
No place SO dear I've ever seen.
For peace reigns here, and Love Is queen.
Two subject, in my kingdom dwell, -.
One has IN eye Of azure.
And smiles upon her fair face tell
OF pure and perfect pleasure;
And one has hair Of raven hue
And eyes Of hazel beauty,
And whate'cr he may strive to do
He always does his duty,
And faithful they have ever been
To, he. who is my household quesn.
And rs life yields me newer Joy
And hope divine and human,

And one almost woman.
The bright days come, the bright days 70
And each brings some new pleasure.
Ard no spot on the earth know
Is richer with heart-treasure,
For happier subjects ne'er were seen
Than in my home where Love is queen.
Ey no high-sounding. royal name
Or title they address her
AS checrily-their hearts afame
With lOve-they kiss and bless her;

Which Joy gives to each other.

Tia hallowed name Of mother!

the following day the clown was sum-

that, during his imprisonment he had
attempted to pass away the time by

object of showing the audience what
progress he had made. he turned to the
pigs. and addressed them in that Ian

the days joy TO him to see this little one
come out iu front Of the cabin door and

the dusk Of the evening. As the engineer
stood at his pos. he saw by the headlight
that little girl on the track, wondering why
the train did not come, looking for the
train, knowing nothing OF its peril. A
great horror seized the engineer. He re-

climbed over the engine, and he

though IL was really slowing up, and with
almost supernatural clutch he caught that
