READING FOR LADIES.
The Richelieu Embroidery Combines the Use
full and Beautiful in the Household
and is Easily Laundried.
WHY SARAH WAS SURE OF 1T.
His Proposal All Thcre-mcndag Extraordinary-Do
not Remain Single-A Warning to He;ressess
Mrs. Rewbride's Strict Instructions.

Combining the useful and beautiful in
our homes, there is nothing more satisfac-
tory in tho way of fancy work, than the
Richelieu embroidery. Being durable and
easily laundried, 1t is especially suitable,
and certainly nothing could be prettier for
sideboard-cover, bureau cover and mats,
lunch or tea-cloth, napkins, tray-cloth,
pincushion-cover, sofa-pillow, or even chill
dren's large collars and dress trimmings.
Tho materials are very fine and heavy
linen sheeting, and No. 2 ''La Croix" en-
broidery cotton. Cut from the linen a
square of twenty inches, and after trans
ferring the design, which can be done very
nicely with carbon paper, trace the out
lines with the floss, and work in button
hole stitch as narrow as possible, being
very careful to always have the finished
edge toward the bars. To make the bars,
draw the thread into the work on the un-
der side so as to have no knots, and bring
1t up through near the edge. Stretch it
and back, having two threads on which
you work in buttonhole-stitch free of the
material. When half across. insert the
needle in the stitch just made, and with
the left hand wrap the cotton seven or
eight times around the needle, and with
tho thumb and finger holding 1t firmly
draw through the needle, thus forming the
picot. The next stitch is taken over the
bars and up through this loop; then finish
the bar as begun. After yeining the leaves
in stem-stitch, press 1t out nicely and cut
all of the material under the bars, leaving
tho design in relief. For this use small,
sharp-pointcd embroidery scissors, and
with the back Of the napkin toward you,
cut as close to the design as possible, TAX
ing care to not clip the bars. Cut out the
center Of the flowers and fill with lace
stitch of No. 40 spool cotton. Now fringe
out one-and- d-one-fourth inches of the linen
and overcast with No. $50 thread, leaving
one inch between fringe and embroidery,
and after careful pressing with q damp
-eloth tho work Is finished. B.

Just a Fit.

II n boy secs Il coat that fits him he
sometimes puts IT on before he knows
it; or we may say the same thing in
other words, "a guilty conscience
needs no accuser."
Two school-boys had qnarreled and
finally had engaged in n real stand-up
fight. The teacher got wind OF tho af-
fair and called the combantants before
him.
"IIe struck mo-" sid one OF tho
boys.
He said stole his knife" slid the
other.
'.I said somebody stole it." said the
first boy.
"Well, you meant me-" replied the
other.
"Why, Charlie" said the teacher,
al Willie. had told me that somebody
had stolen his knife, it would not have
made me angry. l should not have
thought that he meant me-"
'.Wcll, but you don't steal" was the
ready answer. Youths Companion.

Why Sarah Was sure.

A farmer had some wheat stolen few
nights since, and he was so sure that he
knew who the thief was that he came into
town and secured a warrant for certain
young man living near him. When the
case came up for trial the defendant said
he could Prove an albi. In order to do
this he had brought in ''his girl'-a bux-
ON lass of %. She took the stand and
swore that lie sat up with her from in
the evening until broad daylight next
morning.
'.Pcople can be very easy mistaken"
observed the plaintiffs lawyer.
81 don't carc-1 know he was there"
she replied.
''What did you talk about?"
''Love," she promptly answered.
''What time did the old folks goto bed?"
81 gave 'em the wink about 10'
''Sure hc was there at midnight arc
you?"
''Yes, SIR"
''Why are you sure?'
She bluslicd, looked over to her lover
and laughed, and, getting nod to &C
ahead, she said:
''Well, sir, just as the clock struck 12
the cd man jumped out of bed upstairs
and holered down, Sarah, yer mar wants
some O. that catnip tea,' and we got such
start we broke the back of the rocking
chair and went over backward kerplunk!"
''Then the Jury must understand that
you were seated OH Samuel's knee?"

his honor remembered the days of his
youth and sustained the objection.

LIFE's VOYAGE.

Two little children at dawn Of day.
Laughing and romping in merry play.
In the pleasant Springtime weather;
The brooklet RurmurS close s their feet
And the birds in the tree-tops, and butter G.
Nod ard glance in the waters fleet
And they sing and dance together
Oh. swift are the hours,
And gay are the flowers.
In childhood's sunshine blowing;
Aud the heavens are bright
With sapphire light,
And the days in a whirl are going.
A youth and maid meath the MONDAY sun
Talk Of the new life for them begun,
In the pleasant summer weather
The lilies bend down low at their feet,
And the roses breathe out odors sweet.
And their lips full OFT in true love meet,
And their lives flow on together
oh sweet are the flowers
IN Loves golden bowers,
When happy hearts ara beating.
And bright are the skies.
Where Love dreaming lies.
And the weeks in a dream are neettng-
A man and woman at close OF day.
Wander along through the forest gray.
In the golden autumn weather;
The leaves are rustliug down at their feet
And the branches above them in arches meet,
But no new joys their tired eyes greet,
And they wander on together
Oh tranquil The ways
OF our later DAYS,
When the sweet. sad winds are blowing:
And the skies bend low.
With their clouds OF snow.
And the months are serenely going
Two narrow graves In the mopnheam's light
{ All in soft robss Of purcst viii e,
In the snowy wintry weather
The river flows on dark At their feet.
And the suoWdakcs above them gently beat.
Yet not one sound does their deaf ears greet,
And they dream and rvP1se together,
