The First Memory.

TT is my earliest memory
i Behind, by view'ess sunlight kissed,
Lies glimmering, the golden mist
That hides, forever hides, from me
The fairy land of Infancy!
The gateway of our narrow yard
NV baby feet from rowing barred.
One day found it swinging wide;
NV freedom wa, at last, my own;
l pressed ,rlumphantly outside,
And stepped forth in a world unknown F!
Across the way, a field of corn
Was rustling in the breezy morn.
l FASTENED to il overhead
Tue long green leaves their banner spread ;
(No eastern palm, to day, to me,
So proudly tall woul'l seem to bcD
Above against the clear blue sky.
The crests of flowers rose straight and high,
While in the shel,cring sll de beneath,
The silk hung from each emerald sheath.
At once my IMPLIED hands were full
What joy The glistening threads to pull,
And bear the treasure home to show
When low,
I could not find the way to go
l wandered helpless here and there;
The long, green leaves, with rustling sound,
Were bending, swaylng, all around;
They whispered terror III my cars -
"Whcrc had come! y where? 0 wherc!'
My all, my baby all, seemed lost,
Since the door yard gate had crossed.
With trembling limbs, and blind with tears,
And lifting piercing sh'iek on shrek
That still to me seemed faint and weak,
Ofall carlh's creatures most furloin
! stood AMID llla, waving corn
When on my brow felta kiss,
Warm loving arms were round me prest,
And in ecstasy Of hllis
lay upon my mothers breast!
Il is my earliest memory;
Ay, more h w oft 1t comes to me,
When all looks dark, around, above,
Aud seems parable oflovc!

An AnccdOtc from Kentucky.

A new minister had been appointed
in little Kentucky town. NJ sooner
had he taken possession of his cure than
he set about ornamenting the church
with stained glass windows of gorgeous
hues. This proceeding aroused the
suspicious of several parishioners, who
imagined that their new pastor was in.
clined to lead them to Rome. A meet
ing was called, and 1t was decided to
send deputation to the minister to
ask him to explain his conduct, and
beg him to have the offending windows
removed The head Of the deputation
was an old man Of Lutheran proclvities,
whose austerlty was we'll known in the
town. He opened fire by addressing
the reverend gentlemen thus:
'We have waited upon you, sir, to
beg that you will remove those painted
windows from our church as soon a.
possible. We are simple folks, Gods
own light is good enough for us, aud We
don t want to have it shut out by all
those images -
The worthy man had prepared fine
harangue, and was going to give the
minister the benefit of it all, but the
latter losing patience, thus interrupted
him..
Excuse me, you seem to be taking
high ground Who are you, may ask:
Who am l?' repeated the good old
spokesman I'm meek and humble
follower of Jesua, that's what I m,and.. i.

Beauty and Bathing.

So much has been said about bathing, per-
haps there is little new to be told Yet, In
its connection with beauty, too much cannot
be said
Battle intelligently, battle conscientiousiy
We hear discussed the relative merits of cold
and warm baths l think the warm bath,
properly taken, the greatest promoter of a
clear, soft, rosy skin. An eminent physician
recommends the warm bath to be taken twice
a week.
After carefully drying the body with soft
linen, apply rose water and pure glycerine,
using them in mixture of equal parts well
shaken. Rub into the skin, then put on the
night robe warm. 1t is hoped that no one
DESTROYS of beautiful skin will wear any
garment at night that is worn during the
day. Allow no cold surface to come in con-
tact with the body after warm bath, but
get Immediately into bed The good effect of
such bath, followed by q night'srest where
in an even temperature is kept up for eight
or nine hours, will be felt at once. Add to
this formula sweet temper and mind at
peace with all the world and the silken rose
petal may not outvie a woman S skin.-Dress.

The Pig Pen Puzzle.

No house is complete now without its pig
pen and four little pigs. pigs in Glover" is
the latest toy and puzzle, and it is having a
great run. The puzzle consists of circular
block of wood, with a pasteboard rim around
it, and three other paper rims in concentric
circles inside the outer one Each of these
inner rings of cardboard has an opening in it
and the openings are on opposite sides. The
inside ring of all is two inches in diameter,
and is covered over. 1t is called the pen.
Four marbles are placed In the outer division
of the box. These arc the pigs. The test of
skill is to get them all into the pen without
touching them with the fingers. The box is
manipulated in ono or both hands, so that
the marbles roll one at time through the
gates in the circular fences and finally into
the inner Enclosure.
They act very much like pigs, inasmuch as
nobody can be sure of them until he has them
al in the pen. He may get three in, and,
while trying TO put the fourth in, the Others
viii run out. Anybody who has ever driven
pigs viii appreciate the toy, and if every
body who appreciates it has driven pigs it
proves that there are thousands OF pig drivers

These face dollies have become feature of

pinned in with small safety pins. The dolly

popular powder, and can be applied without
detection. When the owner feels that her
