of these blemishes of skin. It would
bother other than an ugenious man to put
this method into practical use, but thu
difficulties are surmounted by the "proI
fessor" in question. He has printed on
cards four outlines of the female human
fgure-showing the form from each
point of the compass, so to speak. His
clients on their first visit are provided
with set of these cards, which they
have taken home, and mark in just the
right spots with the molcs they happen
to bear. Then they return to the
fortune-teller, and he reads their at
tributes and destiny from the diagrams
as filled out. A mole on the shoulder
means one thing, one on the side has a
totally different Interpretation, and so
on through vast number of locations
and combinations. The fellow has
adapted himself to his particular hum
bug by growing tremendous beard,
which makes him look like a wise man
of the East, and he wears an Oriental
robe, which increases his impressiveness.
His gravity is perfect; he talks like an
educated man, and he is doing an i'm
lucrative business, his price
being So and his customers so many that
usually one has to wait in tho ante-room

"Eben.EZer."

How many years have You livedl Has
God been very good to you, leading you day
by day, protecting you by night; leading
you in green pastures and beside still waters;
or, because the way must needs be rough,
helping you over all obstacles; because the
waters OF trial are about ard around you,
are they parted so that you can 60 through
dry-shodi When you ask for daily bread, is
there mamma for your hunger and water for
your thirst? Has He who clothes the lilies
Of the field with beauty, not clothed you, 0
ye Of little faith? Are there falling all
around you The showers Of blessing2 Are
you thankful that the same loving care that
forbds even sparrow to fall 10 the ground
without His knowledge, has you in such
keeping that not the slightest harm can come
to you, that no trouble can assail, except as
he wills?
When Samuel prayed unto God for help
against the Fhilistines when they wore about
to 20 to battle, and the assistance was given
so that the enemies were smitten before
them, Samuel took a stone and set it up, and
called it "Ebenezer,n saying, "fiitherto hath
the Lord helped u.s."
You may not have set up q "stone OF help"
but is there an Eben ezer in your hearth And
u God has helped you hitherto, is not tue
same assistance waiting for you in the fu.
turel There cannot be even doubt OF that,
for even in such gentle tones as only the dear
Lord knows how to use we hear the precious
words: "Fear not, little flock; ] am with
you even to the end OF the world "--lChris-
tian at Work.

A Stylish New Hat.

The satin braid Panama is the name of
a very stylish round hat of palest golden
tan color. The brim of the hat is very
wide and plant, so that it can be bent
here and there at will, as found most be-
coming, or simply caught up at the side
with a loop of gauze or net. One hat of
this kind was trimmed with trail of
hops, shaded oats, and bunch of hazel
nuts mixed, with a little golden green
gauze the shade of the nuts on the left
side. The hat was faced with olive vel
vet. Nearly all hat brims are lined ex.
cept the tapping leghorns-some with o
bias piece of shot velvet or of plain black
or colored velvet. Otherwise, lace is put
in extremely full under the edge, or net
or tulle is shirred and puffed as finish.
Some of the straw and rush hats are ab-
surdly large, and there are piles of arti-
fetal flowers heaped upon the crown.
Often it is one enormous garland of roses
and foliage, which looks as if it had just
been flung at the wearer and alighted on
her hat. The pretty little tulle draperies
which veil the flowers on hats and bon.
nets look like an sfterthought, and are a
dainty and becoming addition.-Ne~

Modern Lace Manufacture.

Jennie June writes to the New York
World that lace manufacture has de-
clined in Brussels since the imitation of
it by machinery has reached such de-
gree of perfection. Still, one cannot
see how lady can wear anything but
real lace with q rich dress; and the laces
of Brussels are so beautiful and so cheap.
That they grind the worker down to
starvation point now is certainly true, in
the eager competition of trade, and
when one sees the marvellous fabric they
produce, the swift movements of the
fugers, which must be delicate and can
not be clumsy among the bobbins and
pins, and the art required to produce
the wonderfully minute but faithful
copies of leaf and flower, of wheel and
star, one wishes for power and wealth
to distribute and save these lovely arts
from being crushed and lost under the
pressure of modern life and the cross of
civilization.
To rxoduce even a yard of lace or the
smallest article a number of hands are
requisite. First the pattern is pricked
in glazed paper, and then it is traced in
OuCllQG III uuc COlGOu tlItoO. 1uCu Oh
expert worker puts in the leaves and
fowerets, another the tiny, starlike
figures and borderings, another the fine,
netted mesh, which unitcs the whole to-
gether. A pattern is shown of the bridal
veil made for the Princess Stephanie,
which took four hundred workmen
three months to complete, and for which
was paid $1,000. Brussels round-point
is the finest lace made-there is nothing
better, at its best, in the world. The
fat-point, now known as ''Duchesse," is
inferior. Then there is Vallenciennes,
"Binche," which is finer and closer
Vallenciennes, all made on the pillow,
and requiring for good pattern four
hundred bobbins and two hundred pins,
and the black "Brussels" lace, which is
Vallenciennes made with silk thread in
stead of cotton. Applique lace consists
of real sprigs applied to machine net
upon frame, with lace stitches put in
upon the under side.

Pekin PickpOckets.

The Chinese Times, in an article On the
Capital of China, says that beneath the
superficial quiet and order of Pekip
there are many evil agencies at work.
The banditttl, for example, think moth.
ing of seizing honest folks and holding
them to ransom. Their special victims
are the silver porters. The currency
consists of large Jumps of silver, like
partially consumed halves of monster
oranges. The carriers are said to derive
heavy emoluments from their judicious
handling of the metal while it is in
their care, but they have their own trials.
When one is known to be going on duty
the banditti waylay him, and if they sue
ceed in beating his guards he may be
held to ransom amounting to half a
years profits. These wealthy porters
seek the protection of the Princes, as
traders did in Europe in the Middle
Ages. If prince lends silver carrier
his cart and mule, in return for a share
of the profits, the bandits will not care
to mcddle with the august vehicle.
Sometimes prize fighters are hired to sit
on the shafts, and have to be extravag-
antly paid for their protection. Pick
pockets infest the city in every direction,
especially in wet weather. Ladies are
often the victims, even when riding in
carts, the thieves springing on top and
snatching the valuable head ornaments
of the Manchu ladies within, the driver
taking no notice for fear of his own skin.
The thieves have regular depots, where
stolen property is placed, and persons of
influence can generally recover what
they have lost if they are persistent
enough. Near one of the city gates is a
market where stolen goods are regularly
sold for one hour at daybreak. Spurious
articles are often offered at this place; a
man purchases roast duck, and finds
on arriving at home that it is only a
clever imitation in mud; and rain boots
are couuterfeited in paper which melts
away when wetted. ''In the social ar
rangements of the Chinese the philoso-
ply of grin-and -bear-it has been cult
waited to an extreme perfection, and is
also, no doubt, archaic. Bystanders will
never interfere with the commission of
crime in the open street in open day,
and the whole system of predatory
crime is tolerated, as vermin is, as the
ordinary lot of humanity. In fact, foul
ness, impossible roads, defective laws,
and all other forms of suffering, are
borne with for want of the energy to re-
sist and overcome them, and not, as is
sometimes supposed, because the people
real;y love these thiros,n

Facial Pei cepttion in the Blind.

The tenth biennial meeting of the
American Association of Instructors of
the Blind was held recently in Balti-
more. Tim delegates represented al.
most every section of the country and
embraced both sexes.
The chief address of the first after
noon was that prepared by Robert W.
Swami, of Baltimore, on "Facipl Per-
ception." The faculty of detecting OBJ
jects by the feeling in the face, he said,
was a skin sense, and that people having
it perceived through the face and fore
head. The speaker related the case of o
Frank Smith, who, although, deaf, dumb
and blind, could detect the presence of
trees, posts, etc., by the feeling in his
face. MIR. Swan had made q number of
experiments with the subject, and found
that such q person, when wearing a
mask, would be "blind." The faculty
did not depend upon light or hearing.
Objects and some of their properties had
been detected by facial perception at a
distance of from to 81 inches. Mr.. N.
B. Kneass said that facial perception de-
pended on echo and shadow. The latter
could be felt by the blind. A number
of experiments were made in presence
of the members of the association, with
results quite wonderful in their way. In
the case of Frank Smith a number of
variously shaped figures, arches, tubes
and different sized flats were placed di-
rectly before the subject, and he readily
told their form. Others with whom ex-
pcrimcnts were made were equally posi-
tive The object was placed before the
SAGE at various distances, varying from
six inches to twenty-sefen. Mr.. Miller,
of Kansas, told of totally blind young
lady in his institution who could, upon
entering q room, say whether member
of the faculty was in the room, md, II
so, call the person by name. He also
had in his place boy who could tell
the clothes of everybody in the place by
his sense of smell. When laundry would
come home and the superintendent
would not be able to tell to whom it be.
lorged, the services of the boy would
tc called into use, and he would name
the owner without ever making mis-
take.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Most great works are accomplished
slowly.
Moral strength is the highest kind of
health.
A friend should bear his friends in
6rmitics.
He who buys hath need of hundred
eyes, and he who sells hath enough of
one.
In adversely men must discover pru.
dence; in prosperity, folly and extrava-
gance.
A merchant should familiarize himself
with every line of goods which he
handles
The way to gain good reputation is
to endeavor to be what you desire to
appear.
Be content to do the things you can
and fret not because you cannot do ev-
erything.
Seasons of depression in trade are gen.
orally followed by years of success and
prosperity.
AS long as woman has to work to sup
port government she should have voice
in its management.
Some people talk so smoothly and
fuently that they almost seem to believe
what they say themselves.
1t is love by proxy when a woman ac-
cepts the advice of another man how
she shall treat her husband.
The nerve that never relaxes, the eye
that never blanches, the thought that
never wanders, are the harbingers of
victory.
Some things, after all come to the poor
that can't get in at the doors of the rich,
whose money somehow blocks up the
entrance way.
To read aloud is to assure ones self of
what one is reading. There are people
who read very loud, and who have the
appearance of giving themselves their
word of honor US to what they are Pc
rusing.
The best preliminary preparation for
even the studies of specialist is lib.
eral education. Such an education con-
meets him with the wide circle of
thought and knowled ge, and saves him
from narrowness and hobbies. The man
who can do one thing best is usually
man who could have done other things

A Cunarder put out from England for
New York. It was we'll equipped, but in
putting uo stove in the pilot-box, nail
was driven too near The compass. You know
how tta. nail would affect the compass:
The ships officers, deceived by that distracted
compass. put the ship two hundred miles of
her right course, and suddenly the man on
the lookout cried "Land hol" and the ship
was halted within few yards Of her demoli..
tion on Nantucket shoals A six-penny nail
came near wrecking great Cunarder.

Tie Dollar Plant.

A queer little growth makes its ap..
pearance in the wire grass country of
Georgia. 1t is called py the natives the
dollar plant, from the singu arity OF its
leaves, which are perfectly round, lying
fat upon the ground, and when full
grown the exact size of dollar. When
the plant is pulled up it is seen that the
leaves retain their perfect roundness
from their incipiency, and grow through
all the gradations the money takes from
the size of the silver five cent piece to
dimes, quarters, halves and the coin from
which it takes its name. At this season
it throws out from the centre cluster
of yellow flowers. s.--Brooklyn Eagle.
