Young man, do not leave it to 2 future
day. but do it now. Man of middle age,
you have a vivid sense of the rapidity
with which your years have gone, but
they will go just as rapidly in the future
as in the past. Man of old age, you
have to make haste-you have no time
to lose.
The ancient law said concerning the
sale of an estate, According to the
number of years, thou shalt diminish the
price" The nearer they were to the
Jubilee year the cheaper they were to
sell the land. So the nearer you come
to the end of your days you ought to
hold earthly things more loosely, and
prize heavenly things more highly. When
your business is drawing TO a close you
hasten to conclude your work. dispatch
ing sometimes in an hour more than all
that went the day before.
When Napoleon went on the field of
Marengo it was late in the afternoon,
and he saw that the battle was really
lost. but looking at the western sun he
said, There is just time to recover the
dayf" and giving out his orders with
rapid and characteristic energy, he turn
ed defeat into victory. So although your
sun is near to setting there is time to re-
w the day. Avail yourself of the
eventide, lest your life end in eternal
failure.-William NJ. TAYLOR.

Miss Elizabeth Marbury, n gifted New

traveler-who has had the refusal of a
score of suitors and never the time to
consider or investigate the offers. be-
ieves that the source of youth and
beauty, health and peace Of mind ia
hard work a few removes from slavery.
Provided it is congenial and the heart Of
the laborer Is in the task, she can club
her brain and physical forces half Of the
twenty-four hours and still be young
aud well and content. Miss MSrbury
makes a business OF writing one net
plays and brushing, trimming and sea
soning old ones.
When she gets dead tired she locks
her study, rushes out of the city and,
after a good sleep of a day or two in her
country garnet just out of Babylon, goes
to her hennery, which has a population
of 500 bipeds and an odd hundred of
fancy chickens. During her stay she has
the eggs packed and sent TO New York,
and the poultry intended for Easter,
Thanksgiving or some other great feast
marked for sacrifice and fattened on the
delicacics OF the field. She has, in con
nection with her poultry farm, a small
dairy, and her sweet yellow butter is

lonian Miss Marbury is greater woman
than the queen Of England.-New York

Nearly the whole of an act of 'Lohen-
grin" has at last been performed at the
Grand Ops !. but the trick was man
aged in such a way that no Chauvinistic
prejudices could be hurt. 1t was an
nounced that at the performance given
for the benefit of NJ. Dumainie a duet
from Wagner's opera would be sung by
Mime. Caron and NJ. Vergnet. When
the audience expected the two singers
to come on in ordinary dress the con-
ductor gave the signal for the orchestra
to attack the first chord of the prelude
to the third act.
The curtain then rose on the bridal
chorus, and, this finished, Elsa and
Lohengrin were left on the stage to sing
the most interesting and the most i'm
FASHIONED love duet that has ever been
written. Now that an attempt has been
made to reverse the sentence passed
upon Tannhauser five and twenty years
ago at the Opera, and to make amends
for the brutal treatment of "Lohengrin"
at the Eden theatre, it is to be hoped
that the hundreds who applaud Wagner
at the Sunday concerts week after week
and year after year may at length have
a chance of hearing his masterpieces at
the French Academy of Music.-Paris

Among the pretty and sensible articles
that may be fashioned for Christmas at
little cost is a set of drawers for but
tons, hooks and eyes, etc. Six small pa
per boxes with drawers are used for
them Tinted boxes covered with MORE
paper are the prettiest, and they may be
bought for a trihe. The boxes should be
about two and a half inches long and
one and one-half inches wide and an
inch deep; the exact size used is imma-
terial. The boxes are fastened together
in two tiers of three drawers each, and
then the two sets of drawers are fastened
together side by side.
For handles one box has a shoe button
sewed stoutly to the middle of the box;
n "A small nursery pin. the next a hook
and eye. and the remaining two boxes
white buttons of porcelain that are used
on Undertaking. A ribbon of satin.
the width of the set when fastened to-
gether, is passed around the boxes and
tied in n pretty bow that cover the top.
A little gift of this kind is a most ac-
ceptable contribution to any work bas,
ket, however dainty, and is more con-
venient than a button bag.-New York

How senator ESArt. Found the EatIns
Capacity of a Rural Hired Man.
Up in Vermont IA short time ago
heard a story OF William NJ. Evarts, the
senator. statesman and lawyer who daz-
lles New England every summer with
his agricultural ability as much as lie
does New York and Washington in the
winter time by his political profundity.
One Of the hangers on around his
immense stock farm was Ivory Hall, a
big fellow who could eat more and do
less work than any other man ever
known in that region. Stories about
Ivory's wonderful capacity for food
came 10 the ears Of the senator, who
discrediting them made up his mind to
put the reputed champion t o n test.
He accordingly hired the gormandiz-
ing giant for n day, and sat him down
TO the breakfast table preparatory to
going afield. Food enough for Ave
men was brought on. and Hall had no
trouble in clearing the board.
Now, Ivory" said the polysyllabie
orator. I'VE have n long way to 90 to
the field, and If you don't mind
should like to have you eat dinner at
this time, 50 you need not come clear
back to the house"
"Jes ez leave take my dinner now ez
any time was the willing
Again the table groaned under the load
Of provisions, and again Ivory swept
all before him.
See here, Mr.. Hall, said the ad-
miring statesman, ''our supper hour is 3
o'clock, and | want you to work later.
Do you think you could take your sup
per now. too. so as to work until sun
DOWN."
"Sartin,r came the quick answer.
Supper and dinner and breakfast are
all the same TO me. l can allos eat
EN-"
For the third time fresh dishes were
produced, and great ronsts and stews
forthcoming. Plate after plate of Yer
mont beef and cabbage and onions and
potatoes went down the greedy outlet
of the hired man, and after these came
puddings and pies and cakes enough to
stock n bake shop. Not a moment did
Ivory relax until every dish was clean.
'lf you are ready now, Mr.. Hall"
suggested the dumfounded orator, I'VE
will go to the field and l will show you
where to work"
Then Hall looked at his employer for
fully n minute, rubbed his abdomen
lovingly and said

One feature in the plans of western
city dwellings must be very clearly de-
fined. This is their openness. Not only
are the windows upon the average
larger than in the east, but they are
mor frequent. as are also bay windows,
oriels, ETC.; while in the general plan
rooms are more closely related, openings
between rooms are wider and single
swinging doors less frequent.
Several dwellings in Chicago-and
there are many in other western cities
ave no doors whatever in the first story.
except those at the entrance and between
the dining room and buffers pantry, cur
tains being exclusively used This is GER
tainly carrying out the idea of openness
to the extreme, as it is the destruction of
all privacy, and of all those suggestive
glimpses upon which so much of the
artistic effect of a house depends.-John

This dainty little structure halls from
the town Of Boston. Because ladies are
always in search OF new fancy work, and
because Christmas is drawing near, and
there is an inevitable dearth Of ideas on
the subject of presents for the mascu-
Unity Of the family, the method OF pro-
ducing this necktie is infinitely described.
Make a chain Of thirty-two, turn and
make a shell in second stitch Of chain by
dipping in five times in same stitch;
catch down by knitting single stitch in
fourth stitch Of chain, make shell in
sixth stitch, and so on until you have
seven shells. Then make chain Of three
and turn.
Second row, make half shell by dip
ping in three times in the very end Of
last shell, and continue making full
shells until the end Of that row, making
half shell again on the end; thus every
second row win have six shells and two
half shells, making seven shells in all.
This keeps the sides Of the tie even.
Shape like n four-in-hand tie-that is,
make the long end about fifteen inches
before narrowing. Narrow gradually
by dropping a shell or half shell on each
row until you nave narrowed down to
three shells, then continue and make
the neck piece about fifteen inches. Be
gin 10 widen gradually and widen 10
eye shells as before. Make the short
end about seven inches, Two spools Of
knitting silk are required for the scarf

Mr.. Gould has some difficulty in keep
ing out Of the way of the cranks, dan
a.erous and not dangerous, who hang
about his Office door. They come for all
, lrposes, from staying him TO interest
ing him in flying machines and other en-
teTpHses. One day q crank wrote to
warn him that he would bo shot if he
did not put up the stock market before
3 o'clock in the afternoon. This crank's
letter had scarcely been read before an
other was received warning him that he
would be shot If he did not put down the
market before . o'clock in tlc afternoon.
Whichever way the market went he was
hound TO be killed, and the dilemma
amused Mr.. Gould more than anything
that had occurred in a long tirne,-lnter-

In the preparation of a garden bed or
border for hyacinths it is best to take
some special care. The application of
stable manure o.fore planting is not de-
sirable, as it has a tendency to cause tho
bulbs to decay. But the addition o, q
quantity of leaf mold and if the soil Is
heavy a good dressing of sand will be
found beneficial. About four inches Of
the top soil a be removed from the
space intended for the bed and laid on
one side; spade over the whole as deep
as possible and work in the leaf mold
and sand, if desired. With a sandy soil
leaf mold alone makes an excellent dress
ing.
Rake over the bed, freeing 1t from
all stones, and giving it a smooth, level
surface. Parallel lines can be drawn
and intersecting ones and b bulbs
placed SO as to show solid masses of color
OF designs of any desired patterns. At
the point where the lines cross press the
bulbs down into the soil even with the
surface, and when all have been set
cover the whole bed over with the soil
which was first removed, thus leaving
them with about four inches of soil en-
tirely over them. Before the ground
freezes hard the bed should have athick
covering of leaves for q winter protec-
tion--Vick's Magazine.

The nickel in the slot machine has
found a very useful adaptation in Paris,
where a new apparatus has recently
been set up at several points in the pub
lie streets for the purpose of supplying
hot water. A small structure is utilized
as a bill board for advertising placards,
and at a convenient point a faucet pro-
jects. Near the faucet is a slot, and be-
side the slot d button. To use the app
ratus a pail is placed beneath the faucet,
a five centimes piece equivalent in size
and value to one of our old fashioned
copper cents) IL dropped in the slot, the
button is pushed and forthwith a Jet of
steaming hot water gushes from the fau-
Get into the pail, running until nine
quarts have been delivered, when the
stream stops automatically.
The interior of the apparatus is partly
occupied by a coil Of pipe, within which
is a gas burner, exactly as in contriv-
ances used in this country for heating
water quickly. The coil communicates
with the city water supply, so that the
water drawn is always fresh. The gas
Is not wasted by being kept burning all
the time, but is lighted by the pressing
of the button which opens the faucet,
and the automatic closing of the faucet
and shutting off the gas after the pailful
of water has been delivered are easily
effected by devices in common use. One
of the chief uses of this new institution
is the filling Of hot water cans which the
cab drivers place in their carriages in
cold weather to warm their patrons feet.
