When Mrs. Arden went back to
Esther's house that night her admira-
ton for the large, braided mats in the
hall and the crazy" portieres at the
parlor door was not as keen as it had
been. She even sighed as she took the
thick, soft folds of the portiere in her
hand.
did you get chance to give Grace
that little lecture I suggested?' asked
Esther, at the suppcr-table.
YES" answered Mrs. Arden, and then
spoke freely of Grace's views on the
subject of the economy of old clothes.
But she failed to convince her nearer
that these views were sound: and Mrs.
Fare, one of vast army of women who
share her opinion that charity begins at
home, stills makes her old clothes into
rugs, aud is in fair way to provide

IN ENG1NEER,s Ignorance.

Every effort is made, said railroad
officer in a recent conversation, to pro.
cure trustworthy, faithful employees,
but all kinds of deceptions are gotten
up to throw us off. I have one case in
mind. There is rule on the road for
which labor which compe]s not only
the conductor but the engineer to sign
the receipts Of all train orders. When
my superintendent took charge he in
sisted upon having that rule adhered to,
and in that way he ascertained that
there was one engineer in the employ
of the company who could neither read
nor write, and he had been running AN
engine for fifteen years Had an acct
dent happened to his train, in which
accident persons were injured, and in
consequence of such injuries an investi-
cation had been ordered, and the fact
of the engineers Ignorance leen estab-
lished, we could not have saved our.
selves in suit for heavy damages, and
beside that, would have been fined
heavily for allowing such q state of
things. .....
His cunning came into play. He was
married man and his wife had been a
school-teacher, and through her efforts
he had been able to commit to memory
the rules as printed on the tinle-cards.
and he had them SO thoroughly fixed in
his mind that he could point them
out on the card, but he was lust as lia-
bic to do SO with the card bottom-side
up as in any shape He was good en-.
gineer, but we had to let him 90, He
went home very much charinged but
he went to work to learn to read and
write. He spent one whole winter at
it, but he was too far along in years to
be successful, and finally was Obliged
to give it up, and to-day he is firing on
the road.

TIE PASSION FoN NOVELTY.

The Eastern monarch who offered
boundless wealth to any of his subjects
who would invent for him new pleas
ure felt no extra call upon his treasury,
for the thing he demanded is not attain
able by human invention, says a Lon
don journal Eddcm sato1ton7aia sem
per TT, however, he had asked for
something less unreasonable, but
equally precious, or had his subjects
better interpreted his innost and un-
conscious desire, they might have salts
fed his craving. There j, nothing new
under the sun, but to old things may be
given new character, anew aspect,
new seduction. All the words in
Shahespeares plays ware in the die
tionary before he used item. All that
he did was to put themin their places.
But his works are as truly new as if he
had invented the language in which
they are written. Sc it is with our
pleasures. Wise men, perhaps, content
themselves with the simpler ones
those that have always the same face
and forever wear the same dress But
if the multitude, thai monarch of to-
day, ask for new pleasures, then give
them the old ones in fresh garbs, and
with novel features. Ehe kaleidoscope
is what it is only on condition that you
keep moving it. It is the same with
life, the same with pleasure and enjoy
ment. The matter remains the same;
the combinations made from it are
practically infinite. 1t is the skill and
ingenuity of man that make the comb
nations. Happily, the crowd are chill
dren and are easily amused, ard even
an old dish will be hailed as q novelty
by many people if the chef h I've but
the shrewdness to give it nev name.
Roses in garland, after all, ART not so
beautiful as roses in hedge or bower,
but then they are sometimes different.
The same restless spirit that causes
men and women to change the cut Of
their clothes and the hangings on their
! walls, impells them equally to ask for a
change in the arrangement Of flowers.
The harsher critics would, no doubt,
condemn this passion for artificial nov.
city, too often lapsing into absurbity.
But if we are to take the world as we
find it, and remain philosophically toll
Grant OF all the foibles of our common
human nature, then all we can do is to
explain how it is that men crave for
something new, and TO congratulate
those who hare the energy and the cum
ming to provide it. Are not even new
roses demanded by the Unsuitable appe-
tite OF man? They may not equal the
old forms, but they satisfy his protest
against the monotonv that fatio,1as him

Indeed, noticed many little coquetish
evidences of desire on her part to
break the ice. Weighing 600 pounds,
she seemed calculated to break it if she
felt like it. She was blonde, with
NATURAL sunny curls. She had gener-
Gus dimples in her cheeks. Her form
was ample. For one constructed on so
large plan her feet was small, and
twinklcd under her short but modest
skirts with considerable fascination.
