The Sugar Maple.

Although the zap season" 10 over for

ornamental trees Of New England. 1t 10
BY far the noblest Of the American naples,
although the silver maple develops occs.
sionsliy greater trunk girth, and also poe
sesses great beauty Of foliage. The parks,
streets and roadsides Of New England would
lose half their summer and autumn charms.
we're 1t not for the glories Of the maple,
and while the maple sugar product 10 no. so
extensive A. il once was, the syrup making
business is an important ye-product on
many farms, adding materially to the an.
nual increase Of the total receipts.
Economically the sugar maple 10 one of
the most valuable American trees. The
wood 1t produces 10 heavy and hard, close
grained, tough and strong. It has = sur
face which can be highly polished, so that
1t is an excellent and much esteemed fur
niture wood, especially those peculiar
forms with twisted and contorted grain
known as birds eye maple. 1t is from the
wood of this tree that American shoe lasts
are made in preference to that Of any
other. and it is used in the manufacture of
hundreds of other objects. great and email,
from the keel of boat to = shoe peg
The New Englander who wants to burn
better fuel than that afforded by the sugar
maple must use hickory. The Indians
knew the value of the sap of thin tree, and
soon taught Europeans how to convert it
into sugar.
The sugar maple has one characteristic,
remarks Prof. Sargent in Garden and For.
est. which very few American trees, except
some of the oaks, share with it to the same
degree, and one which, when American
forests are managed with the view of get

Pretty Dinner Designs.

II the all-important feature in the domestic
arrangement to a man is the dinner, the all
important one to woman Is the table. The
daintiness of the woman, the taste Of the ar
tist and tho pride Of the housekeeper all find
expression in the arrangement OF table for
dinner, breakfast or luncheon, and welcome
is the man or woman who brings any pretty
or recherche suggestion for this department
of household decoration.
As regards the cloth, the prospects are
discouraging to limited purses, the latest in
dications being that the snowy linen-thc
pride Of our grandmother presses-will soon
be entirely superseded by covers Of the
richest incrusted silk, satin embroidered in
colors, or linen embroidered in fade colors OF
every tint. The extravaganza OF using such
delicate and costly textures for practical
eating purposes will confine their use to the
extremely wealthy aud to extraordinary
occasions, while the more economically in
clined can find subject equally pretty and
far less expensive by draping the old-fash-
ioned white cloth with tulle of any delicate
shade-yellow, pink, lavender-and catching
It up at regular intervals by flower harmon
izing with it in tint.
A pretty table is draped with palo yellow
tulle, caught up with mermet roses-the
Same roses being placed at each plate for the
guests.
At breakfast given recently by girl grad
nate to her classmates the white cloth was
draped with the trailing sprays of Hartford
fern, while bunch Of sweet peas was laid a:
each plate. Gorgeous effects can be produced
by using the trailing Virginia creeper or the
long sprays Of burning sumac. Mound pieces
for the center OF the table are made of asters'
shading from palest lavender, and an edge OF
deepest purple, with an edge Of ferns.
Another design is of asters and dahlas, shad-
ing from palest pink in the center through
the dark pinks and lighter reds to the deep
rich red of the darkest dahlias at the edge
This, too, is finished with a fringe Of fern
Those, Of course, who can command orchids
either from their own greenhouses or from
the florist, will produce symphony in color
by combining violet orchids, acacias of light
yellow tint and pink orchids with light
feathery ferns, the whole effect being ex.
ceedingly light and delicate.

Religion and Politics.

Professional polticians-demagogues
are willing to mix politics into relig,
ion but these same are Mortified ut the
idea of bringing religion into politics.
So far as politics disagree with Chris
tian morals SO far politics are wrong,
If politics were what they should be
they would not be inconsistent with
religion. To mix politics (-especially
such as now obtain in the United
States and in South Carolina-l into
religion would pollute, but to inject re,
ligion into current politics would tend
to purify. Let politics be kept out OF
religion, but let as much religion he
mixed into politics as the condition OF
the latter will permit. The more re-
ligion among the people the less need
of politics and politicians.

UNKooK THAT CHECK-REIN.-
Every other horse you will meet with
on the streets of a city is either stand
ing hitched with his face turned up to
the hot sun, the flies swarming about
his eyes, mouth and ears, with no
power to defend himself, or moving
along in perfect misery from his head
being pulled up to an unnatural posi-
ton. If drivers who insist that their
horse does not travel we'll, or is in the
habit of umbling, or is liable to kick
if his head is not reined up, would
have the Judgment, or sufficient sup
ply of the milk of human kindness,
to throw Off the check when they
stop, the cruelty and harm would be
greatly lessened, but very few of them
ever think so far, and nearly every
hour in the day one can find scores OF
DOOR animals standing in the sun suf-
fering all the tortures of the rack or
pillory while their master is within
doors enjoying himself, with no
thought or care for the welfare of his
mute and faithful servant.

RELIGIOUS EXCITEMENT SELDOM
RESULTS SERIoUsLY.-Infidels and
scotfers make more ado over one per-
son whose physical health or mental
equipoise has been disturbed by relig-
ious excitement than over ten thou
sand victims Of vice whose wrecked
bodies and minds bear witness to the
character of the god they have served.
A special dispatch to the Tribune says
that young lady, eighteen years of
age, in Amboy, ILL.,, went to bed on
March Is in her usual health, and has
slept ever since, about twelve weeks.
Her face is rosy, her heart beats natu-
rally, and she sleeps like child, be-
ing fed at intervals with fluid. The
dispatch states that many believe that
religious excitement, produced by at
tending revival, has caused complete
paralysis of her nervous system. This
is not impossible. Persons of delicate,
nervous organizations have been
known TO turn their thoughts 80 in
tently and continuously on religious
subjects as to produce unfortunate re-
suits. But danger in this direction is
slight. Excitements of sin are far
more perilous. If those who yield to
the allurements of vice should expert
ence no greater harm than to be
thrown into sweet sleep, continuing
for three months, their calamity
would be infinitely lesseneG.

What Others Say.

Canon Shuttleworth, a prominent
Church of England clergyman, at
recent Church Congress said:
Every churchman should make
himself nuisance to public men with
regard to the temporal well-being of
the working classes; should trade OH
ly with those who paid fair wages, and
recognize his personal responsibility
for the acts of any company in which
he was shareholder"
TheJournaI Of United Labor, one Of
the leading labor papers in this coun-
try, comments upon these words as
follows:
IF religious people attempted to
live up to such standard as this they
would not have occasion to deplore
the growing alienation between the
working classes and the church. But
unfortunately there are very few min
listers who have the sentiments and
the courage of Cannon Shuttleworth.
The great majority who give any
thought to the industrial conditions of
the masses are content with vague, un-
meaning expressions of sympathy or
advice to bear the hardships of their
lot patiently. seeing that they have
only short time to endure them.
tude is the result mere of want of
SOUND thought on the social problem
and ignorance of practical conditions
than of deliberate and calculated SUBJ
servience to capitalism, and we believe
thatas the question comes to be better
understood very large proportion of
the ministers will speak out boldly for
labor REFORM"

or fMiss) E. B. Green, though 1t is better to
give one or both of the Christian names In
full. The Miss Is put In parenthesis simply
for the information OF the person to whom
you write. 1t would not be in good taste to
use It otherwise; on the contrary, 1t is not
really in good taste to omit 1t when used in
the parenthesis, for you thus relieve your cor
respondent Of some embarrassmentin telling
him how you should be addressed. Married
women should use the Mrs in the same way.
Many letters are signed like this: d. Rogers
evidently from girls or women but when
one comes to address answers We are in
dilemma, either horn Of which seems to be
charged with electricity and ready to give US
shock, for it wouldn't do to address Miss
as Mrs. or Mrs as Miss. Ofcourse these
hints will be Of service only when you have
occasion to write to some one to whom you
are not known.
Some Of you may be surprised at our use
OF the word women in the foregoing para
graph instead of ladies. II you are, 1t will be
because you are still under the influence OF
that old affectation which Is happily giving
way to common sense. Man and woman are
terms of which one has need only to be proud,
and when used in their true sense they will
not admit Of being strengthened or ennobled,
even by the terms gentleman and lady. We
express our admiration by saying, "she's
noble woman" How the phrase is weakened
by making it, "she's noble lady!"
And this recalls that silliest Of all a1ectts-
tions which calls women-clerks "sales-
ladies'" but which hesitates through sheer
dread Of ridicule to be consistent and say
"sales-gentlemen. No true woman Is
ashamed Of the name woman, for O true
woman is always lady, as true man is al-
WAYS q gentleman.
