The PROMISE TO OBEY.-We have
arrived at point where dissent from
the popular view is no longer deemed
unlovely. Charming young ladies are
beginning to have opinions of their
own, and we find they can express
them without losing the opportunity for
family ties aud congenial companion
ship. Life has a broader outlook for
woman, and marriage imposes no bar
rier to progress. An Episcopal lady
was asked what she meant by her mar
rage vows. She promptly replied:
II reserved the privilege of private
Judgment" Excellent; but why make
vows that have no significance? Bet
ter drop the form than make the in
ward reservation. Said Beriah Green,
fifty years ago: II never require the
woman to promise more than the man
in the marriage ceremony" A wise
thought Of great and good man. This
is the principle Of equality we are con-
tending for to-day. It applies to the
family as much as to the State. Mrs.
Maria g. Frost.

Close the eyelids-gently close them,
Smooth the soft brown hair away
From the brow where lingering sorrow
Left his impress day by day.
Kiss the brow with sorrow laden
Kiss the lips once soft and red;
Fold her hands upon her bosom,
For they say that she is dead
Out beneath the falling snow-flakes--
Out upon its lonely bed,
Is violet crushed and withered,
And they say that it is dead;
But when spring with JOY returning,
Drives with smiles the snow away,
Then, the violet wakes from slumber-
Wakes to grace the bright spring day
So the dear loved one that's sleeping,
SAUNDERS for a little while,
Then she'll wake in heavenly glory;
Wake beneath her Fathers smile.

The sand bag is invaluable in the
sick room. Get some clean, fine sand,
dry it thoroughly in kettle on the
stove. Make bag about eight inches
square of flannel, fill it with dry sand,
sew the opening carefully together
and cover the bag with cotton or linen.
This will prevent the sand from sitting
out, and will also enable you 10 heat
the bag quickly by placing in the oven
or even on top of the stove. After
once using this you will Fever again
attempt to warm the feet or hands Of a
sick person with bottle of hot aer
or brick. The sand holds the heat q
long time. and the bag can be tucked
ND to the back without hurting the in
valid. 1t is a good plan to make two
or three of the bags and keep them on
hand, ready for use at any time when
needed.
