Home Decoration.

No one who enters many of the homes
of the country can fail 10 notice what a
marked progress has been made in beauti-
flying them. Almost every young woman
and many of the older ones are now capa.
bic of doing a large variety of things that
20 10 make up home decoration, and these
a4e found in the household in p%rofusion.
\ few cents or dollars will go TO IA surpris-
ing length in the purchase Of materials fol-
this work of Tstheticism. and these in the
dcft fingers of wife and daughter become
choice attractions in identifying the
home. The decoration Of the
home is not only an effect of the growing
taste and appreciation OF the time, but Is
also n cause of improving these. Whoever
lives amid beautiful surroundings partakcs
Of the influence that emanateS from them,
and his or her life must be moulded con.
siderably 10y them. They give a tone to
lie just as a painting gets a ton from its
Coloring. The mothers and daughters OF
the land, by means of their home decora-
ton and identifying, are giving a new
coloring to life that makes it more precious
than ever before.

the storms of winter and the fierce heat of
summer. This is one of his stories.
The cowboy is seldom quarrelsome.

fun that look outrageous To the average
peaceable citizen. | remember one time
just after the Arkansaw roundup, that IA
party Of the boys. myself included, were
quaitercd at Dodge City. We all got
rooms at the hotel, and determined to 90
to bed early that night, and have t. real
civilized sleep. 1t was about ! o'clock in
the afternoon, and we spent the time until
nightfall specializing as 10 the SEN

in a bed. Jim Lane told us about his

DIAMONDS IN HER SHOES.
A Queer Hiding Place for a woman's
valuabIes.

Mrs. Henriques, of South Orange, sent
her shoes to William Van lderstine's shoe
store by a small boy, who went through
the street swinging them in his two HANDS,
and finally deposited them in the shoe
dealer S hands with a request to stretch
them. Mr.. Van lderstine thrust his I'm.
gers into one of the shoes, as all shoemak
ers do on such occasions. He found an
obstruction. and, tugging al II, he brought
To light a small channels bag containing
four brilliant unset diamonds. Shaking
the shoe vigorously, he spilled out a pair
of diamond earrings, W cluster rings,
two solitaire rings, and a handsome cluster
brooch. After giving way TO astonish'
ment for some minutes, the shoemaker
gathered up the precious jewelry and
fastened to Mrs. Henriques' house.
What do you keep in your shoes?' he
asked.
Il do not know" answered the lady,
''unless it may be n few diamonds.
sometimes put diamonds away for safe
keeping by putting them in my shoes. Die

Mr.. Van Iderstine then handed over the
property, remarking that she must he for

Of fact way, merely remarking that it was
rather careless. Judges of precious stonei

Or Is that but a phantom light, that we follow.

Hated for winning the race by the crowd who

The snares Of the evil women are waiting his

And the rafting lure OF the dice-box, and the

His heart will he torn by the cry of the hungry

While Dives rolls by in his chariot and Laza.
rus dies in his need.
And the clash Of contending creeds will hurtle
about mis- head,
But the world will be dark and cherries, as
though goodness and God were dead.
Have I not done him a wrong in finging him
