Not a Modern Idea.

Records of building associations-that
is, societies for enabling subscribers to
build or purchase dwelling houses-date
back as far as 1881 in Birmingham, Eng
land. The number and cost of houses
built depended upon the number of shares
owned by the subscriber. The rents of
the houses were paid to the treasurer of
the building association. Lands intended
for building purposes were laid out in
lots, bid for by subscribers, and let to
them on long time leases. Members paid
monthly dues. A committee of manage
ment was elected annually. The number
OF building societies now existing in Eng
land is well on to 5000, with funds and
securities approaching e75,00O, 900. -

Practical Art for Girls

Think of 500 girls painting egg shells!
These shells are suspended from windows
and mantels by silken threads or they are
used as breakfast or German favors. 1t
is alleged that decorative painting is
more remunerative than any other branch
OF art and is at the present time more
popular in refined society than piano
playing or dancing. Another fad is en-
bellishing the table china with portraits
of the family and relatives. At one of
the large art institutions l found that an
other branch of remunerative art was the
designing of quaint and artistic costumes
not alone for the stage, but for indoor oc-
casions of fashionable persons. Boston

Conklinr,s Word Was Sufficient.

1t is told that a person came to him
and asked him to do something in the
way of looking up a claim or bill. Mr..
Conkling said that he would do SO; the
man felt gratified, but unfortunately
happened, as he left the room, to say:
''Now, Mr.. Conkling, I will rely upon
you, SIR" "Rely upon me for nothing,
SIR" exclaimed the senator, and forth
with paid no further interest to the
mans concern. The man had said just
one word too much, and yet how natural

THE SPIRIT OF THE PAST.

The twilight hour descends upon the land,
And with a solemn moan the mighty deep
Rolls on the beach and lulls me into sleep:
And while dream feel a gentle hand
Upon my arm, and, coming from the strand,
sweet, sad voice bids me to ever keep
My purpose true and adds, sThat ye may reap
Ye first must sow; tits by divine command"
Then lol as from a troubled sleep wake,
A silent form see, which from my gaze
With noiseless steps retreats and fadeth fast
Among the shadows where the white caps break
Upon the shore; aud through the misty haze
recognize the spirit of the Past.
