Household Hiuts.

The old-style oval mirrors are coming into
vogue again, but with new decorations. They
are pretty il framed with pulled sateen of light
blue or pink co,ors.
A very useful article was seen at a recent
modest fair, where things were sold a. reason
able prices. II was called "a handy COM
psnion,' and was made like a linen shawl case.
These little linen cases were bound with braid
and feather stitched with a contrasting color;
they were cut seven in ches long aud three and a
half inches in diameter. They are used to hold
the needle. thread, thi mble and anything that is
sure to. be In the bottom Of a bag or trunk just
when it 10 wanted at the top. Al this fair tho
price asked was only twenty-five cents.
Coverings for handsome pillows that are in
constant use and also for hammock pillows, are
made of two pieces Of linen Zulu cloth. Large
eyelet holes are worked around the edges and
laced with q rather large silk cord, finished with
two tassels. One recently seen at an art store,
was made OF fawn-colored Zulu cloth with an
embroidered vine; the flowers and stems were
done in outline. and the leaves in Kensington.
The cushion itself was old blue, and the eyeiet
holes and cord were OF the same shade of blue.
These coverings can be taken off and washed
whenever needed.
Among some of the minor novelties seen la a
two shades Of ribbon. The outside shade was
No. 8 in width. aud the shade that served as the
lining about half an inch wider. To make one
take two lengths of ribbon q yard and a half
long; for instance, the outside shade of terra
Gotta, the lining cream color. Sew them to-
gether lengthwise; on one side :hs edges will
come together. and on the other tie cream color
will show q half inch beyond the terra Gotta.
Next, place the ends together and sew the sides.
Turn down the top sufficiently for a heading
and use very narrow ri bbons for draw strings.
Such bags are very con venient for parties or the
~theater; snd there 10 less danger OF breaking the
fan.
II you have an old fashioned secretary which
is precious. but which seams useless, it can,
with q very little trouble, be formed into a
china closet or . sideboard for the dining room.
First have it rubbed down and polished; then
have the Dashboard taken off and q small piece
of wood fitted in at the front, thus making ,he
top oven. on which may be kept ice water. or
any fancy dishes, il it 10 to be used as a recap
tacie for china. The doors must next come of.
Then place . brass rod at tie top OF this open
ing with two curtains on It. Either remove the
piReon-holes, Or have . long piece Of copper
fastened across in such . way as to De easily re-
moved. The copper forms a charming back
ground for decorative painting; and By adding
handsome brass or copper handles, one has q
piece Of furniture that will grace any dining
room.

Reverence.

There is no virtue, no grace, i'll pos
lures and attitudes. This truth we do
not question. But if we refuse to ex-
press reverence, we shall soon cease to
feel reverence. This also is truth. 1t
is not enough to be interested, in a gen
eral sense, in the services of the sane
tuary. "God is greatly to be feared
[reverenced] in the assembly of the
saints and in the congregation" True
reverence, real worship, will express it
self somehow so long as we ere COM
pounded of body and spiri'. Starve
expression, and how long will the feel
ing endure? We are persuaded that it
has declined in many if not most Of our
congregations. It is greatly to be
wished that it might be revived. But
in order that it may become fixed
habit of our souls, we need to adopt
suitable methods of expression. We
should feel more like praying if we
adopted some proper attitude Of prayer.
By kneeling, bowling the head, covering
the eyes-by some bodily action or at
titude expressive Of reyerent alteration
we shall be far more likely to c1llti-
vate the true spirit Of devotion.-Dr
Bushnell.

Fifteen dollars year for chewing to-

feel when the day of settlement comes
1t is going to come, for we are all the
stewards of our God. He has charged
us up with all committed to our care,
and He will reckon with us. The use
of all His goods, including the divine
right in our own bodies which He fash

see how your account stands with God.

Forests revenge upon Brongham.
Fifty years ago John Brougham's wife
ran away from him with Henry Wallack'
uncle of Lester. Wallack deserted her
and died, and she became tramp act
ress in England. Twenty years after,
when Edwin Forrest got into trouble
with his wife, the latter went on the
stage at Brougham's theater, in this
city. the Lyceum. He warned Broug-
ham, but in vain, and then he swore re-
venge. A messenger was sent to En-
gland to hunt up Mrs. Brougham (Rob-
ertson she called herself), and put her
on the American stage. Brougham had
married again without waiting the for
malities of a divorce, and it had cost
him some money to satisfy the first wife
when she learned Of it. However, For
rests messenger found the lady, and
back she came to America. Her first
move was to call upon her first husband.
She sent in her name and Brougham
promptly came into the parlor, having
expected her. The lady evinced cool
ness without parallel. AS he entered
she arose, advanced, and the first greet
ing after twenty-one years of absence
was: "Why, John, you've been getting
your hair cut!"-Philadelphia Record.

COOP AND BID NEJYS.

Bad news weakens the action of the
heart, Expresses the lungs, destroys the
appetite, stops the digestion, and
partially suspends the functions Of the
system. An emotion of shame Pushes
the face; fear blanches, Joy Eliminates
it, and an instant thrill electrifes a
million of nerves. Surprise spurs the
pulse into q gallop. Delirium infuses
great energy. Volition commands, and
hundreds of muscles spring to excite.
Powerful emotions often kill the body
at stroke. Chic, Liagoras, and
Sophocles died Of JOY ct the Grecian
games. The news of defeat killed
Phillip V. One of the Popes died of an
emotion of the ludicrous on seeing his
pet monkey robed in pontiicals, occu.
plying the chair of State. The door.
keeper of Congress expired on hearing
OF the surrender Of CORVALLIS. Emf.
nent public speakers have often died in
the midst Of an impassioned burst Of
eloquence or when the deep emotion that
produced it had subsidized. Lagrave
the young Partisan, died when he heard
that the musical prize for which he had
competed was adjudged to another. .

CRAFT is merely the supplement of in
ferior abilities.
The fundamental qualities Of true
friendship are constancy and fidelity.
The present constitution of human
nature cannot bear uninterrupted pros
perity without being corrupted by it.
AT whatever period of life friendships
are formed, as long as they continue
sincere and atfectionate, they form I'M
doubtedly one OF the greatest blessings
we can enjoy.
The maxim that has been laid down
by certain crooked politicians, to be-
have to friend with the same guarded
caution as we would do to an enemy,
