EXERCISE OF DISCRETION.
Why Va!or without Consideration Is a
Dangerous Quality.

Why VaIor without Consideration Is
Dangerous Quality.
The discretion" which is said TO
be 1.-The better part of valor" is not
usually understood to be a quality Of
which the possessor has any particu-
lar reason to feel proud; it is looked
upon. indeed, as an indication of
something very like cowardice Cow
ardice in a man, fortunately for this
country, is looked upon by all classes,
from the ragged vendor of evening
newspapers to a prime minister. as
the one social sin for which there is no
forgiveness, hence the imputation be-
comes a serious one. AS a matter of
fact, however, it is pre-eminently true
that discretion is the better part of
valor." Valor without discretion, so
far from being useful quality, is apt
TO be a very dangerous one. The
valor of our private soldiers is beyond
question, but the exercise of the dis
erection which controls it is fortunately
not left to them; if it we're we should
have splendid instances of bravery, no
doubt, but our army as an effective
weapon of war would soon cease to
exist.
Discretion is the tie which binds to-
gether all the faculties of the mind;
without it, they have no more cohesion
than a loose bundle of sticks. He who
enjoys the proper exercise of this
faculty enjoys il. unfortunately, to the
exclusion of countless numbers of his
fellow-beings. 1t is a faculty which
can be developed by practice, and if
can be lost by disuse, following in
this respect the Darwinian order of
things. Soldiers taught to perform
their different evolutions at the word
of command, act mechanically at last,
depending upon the volitiOn of some
body else instead of their own. Re-
lieved from the necessity of consider
ing what course they would, under
particular circumstances. adopt, they
cease to consider about it altogether,
and if at some supreme crisis they are
deprived of those who have done the
thinking for them, they are as incapa-
bile of intelligent and combined action
as a flock of sheep. Chambers Jour-

UTILIZING BOXES.
How to Make Many Useful and Handy Ar
ticles of Furniture.

How to Make Many Useful and Handy Ar
ticles of Furniture.
Many useful and handy articles of
furniture can be added to a room by
utilizing the boxes which every fam
lily has more or less of. A box about
three feet long and one foot wide, and
not quite as wide as a chair, can be
made to serve a double purpose by
covering it neatly. The cover should
be padded evenly with cotton, and
covered over with ticking or cotton
cloth, then a pair of hinges should be
put on about six or eight inches from
the end, and the cover attached to the
box. Any material that is used for
covering furniture is suitable to cover
the sides and top. 1t should be cut
wide enough to cover the sides
of the box, and fastened neatly
over the top, and under the bot
tom with small tacks. Cretonne IS
inexpensive, also denim, such as is used
for overalls. 1t can be ornamented
around the top, where the cover
closes, with a strip of felting pinked
on both edges and tackled to the box
in the center of each scallop, on the
top edge, with brass headed nails.
When finished this makes good seat,

convenient to keep work in, or cloth
ing, or many things which one desires
to put away from dust. Small boxes.

When asked Prince Albert if he

When / asked Prince Albert if he
had ever received the decoration of

Duguesclin and Dunois, heroes under
Charles VII, and during the Franco
Prussian war fought for France"
Leo XIII. said of Prince Albert:
He is truly wise Prince" and this
is not faint praise, coming from the
Holy Father. Albert is really sage
of olden times, philosopher, a man
who seeks enjoyment only in science.
Six months of the year, Prince
Charles lives at his castle at Marchais,
department of the Aisne, France.
There he is the Providence of the
country, and receives the greatest re-
spect from the inhabitants. Prince
Albert regrets that the treaty with
reference to the Monte Carlo gam
bling-house is not voidable for many
years, but he agrees with his father
that the Blancs have made the fortune

have in previous letter spoken of
Prince Albert's matrimonial Difficult
ties. When only twenty-one he mar
ried the daughter of the Duke of Ham
iltOn, but eight or nine years later
their marriage was dissolved by the
Vatican. Six months later the Prin-
cess married a Hungarian. Count Tas-
silo de Festetics. Since that time she
has never seen Albert of Monaco, and
although he has not explained the
causes of their trouble, even to his in
innate friends. the world in general
blames the Princess. The son Louis,
now nineteen years old, will soon
graduate from the Sarbonne. He re-
mains with his father, and, believe,
since the separation he has not seen
his mother.

EARLY WINTER STYLES.
One Form of Excitement in Which Fashion
Leaders are ]ndulging.

One Form of Excitement in Which Fash ion
Leaders are lndulging.
Come over, come over to me-" is
women are now making to their dress
makers, and, judging from the novel
ties which these same dress-makers
are bringing from across the waters, the
costumes of this season bid fair to be
more beautiful and bewildering than
ever. One novelty which will, we
hope, not reach US is the bull-fght,
which since and during the EXPOSE
ton is one form of excitement in
which society in Paris INDUCES. This
barbarous entertainment has given
Spanish tinge to every thing, and the
toilettes most in vogue are those
which are suggestive of the aroma.
Hence we have the picturesque SOM
brero, the dashing toreadore, the mata-
dore. and last but not least, the CO.
quettish mantilla, gracing the heads of
the votaries of fashion. The mantillas
fastened to the head at the back with
luO HIGH COIllO Will OC d NOtN OCCOl4-
ing and popular headgear for evening
wear this winter. Even the brightred
cloth which is waved to excite the bull
to combat is worn by the ladies on less
exciting occasions. 1t is folded di-
agonally, making a three-cornered
kerchief, the two ends of which are
knotted in the back of the neck, while
the point falls into the opening of the
dress in front. Tho Spanish wrap is
represented by the short senorita with
epaulettes, which is a becoming SUBJ
stitute for the English jacket.
The new fall goods. cashmeres,
cloths, cheviOts and diagonals come in
divers designs, of which the large
plaids, discs and broad stripes are
most favored.
A very attractive costume has
coat Of white-striped Elton cloth, with
chemisette and cravatte of white silk.
An elegant directoire gown has the
waist, triple revers, and cuffs OH one
mass of gold embroidery.
Handsome dinner and reception
dresses are made of new material, shot
moire, interviewer with gold or silver
threads, upon which the gaslight has
a magical effect Peau de sole and
brocade are also in demand in broad
stripes in three colors or in large floral
designs, which almost completely hide
the ground tone of the material.
The new shapes in hats show lower
crowns with broad brims, profusely
trimmed with ostrich plumes, which
lie fiat on the brim and droOp over in
the back. For the capOtes and toques,
which are as fashionable as ever, vel
vet flowers in all varieties, with the
addition of broad ribbon.
At the theater diadem of flowers
or fruit will serve as q SUI bstitute for
the tall hat which has so long annoyed
the unfortunate possessor of the seat
behind it. A diadem of deep-red
grapes is especially becoming to
blondes, one of green ones to bru-
nettes.
For dress trimmings the fringes in
all widths and colors are the favorites;
those of cut jet have most brilliant
effect, as with each motion of the
wearer the lights and colors vary.
Next come the pinked out ruches and
broad bands of Hungarian velvet. usu-
ally in two colors. Velvet will be the
material par excellence for fall and
winter wraps and for winter polonaise,
which is again favorite of fashion,

BERLIN'S CITY SHELTER.
Unique German Charity Which Might

4 Unique German Charity Which Might
Well BE Instituted Here.
One of the most noteworthy institu-
lions of Berlin is that known as the
City Shelter" the like of which is
to be found in no other capital in the
world. 1t stands just outside Berlin,
was opened in October, 1887, and is
intended for the accommodation not
only of homeless individuals, but of
homeless families as well. 1t consists
of one large three-story building, and,
in the rear, twenty one-story barracks,
each of which is capable of accom-
modating from sixty to eighty per-
sons. The main building is intended
chiefly for poor families. Rents are
excessively high in Berlin, and it
often happens that an artisan or a la
borer gets into arrears with his pay
ments, and finds himself elected with
his family into the street, having no
money in his pocket with which to
hire fresh rooms. His resource on
such an occasion is the "City Shelter"
whittier he goes with his wife and
children and whatever household eff
fects he shall possess.
On their arrival the clothing they
wear and the furniture they have
brought with them are thoroughly dis
infected, and the members of the fami-
ly are sent to different parts of the
establishment, according to sex or
age. The husband is located in the
mems department; the wife, the eldest
daughters and the smallest children
are sent to that for women, while the
boys over six years of age are cared
for in rooms specially set apart for
them. The entire family are allowed
to remain in the shelter for eight
days, and are not only lodged, but are
provided also with good wholesome
food by the city. not penny being
asked for from them in return. The
women, however, are expected to as
sist in the laundry and in keeping the
establishment scrupulously clean; the
men are allowed certain hours of abb
sence, during which they may go in
search of work should they be out of
employment while the boys get regu-
lar instruction IN the school-rooms.
Should it be found that the husband
or father has honestly striven to obtain
work during the eight days, but has
failed, the family is allowed to remain
for still another such period. Even
then, if he should have obtained an en-
gagement which is not sufficiently re-
munerative to enable him to set up
fresh home at once, the wife and chill
dren may remain still longer in the
shelter, and he may go there and sleep
at night. Even with all this the kind
ness of the city does not end, for when
at last the family leave they may be
presented with from fifteen to twenty
shillings toward their preliminary
household expenses. Y. Post.
