The best way to make a pOt-pourri,
or flower mixture for rosejar, is to put
nothing into it but leaves and salt. AL
ternate the layers of rOse-leaves and
salt, pressing the latter down upon the
former When the scent becomes evil
dent, the leaves of any other fragrant
flowers may be added, such as heliotrope,
lemon, verbena, violet, or even those of
the geranium. A jar filled in this way
will prove a source of delicious fragrance
for many months.-Golden Days.
1t is said that paper pillows are very
cool. and in some respects superior to

FOR ENGAGED GIRLS.
How They Should Act in the Presence o
Their Sweethearts.

Their Sweethearts.
| When your sweetheart comes to see
| you, don't be foolish enough to cOnfine
your sweetness to him alone. Have
him in where all of the rest of the
household are. Let the talk and the
chatter and the music and the playing
of games be in the home circle. Then
| the few minutes that he gets with you
by Yourself will seem all the more de-
lightful, and he will think you the most
loving little creature in the world. Men
are much more observant than they are
credited with being, and the man worth
having as a husband is the one who will
appreciate your love for those of your
own people, and will see that as you
make small part in one home, you are
becoming adapted for the central figure
in another.
Never say that you don't expect man
to marry your whole family It's vul-
gar. You do. That is, if you are
good daughter and loving sister. You
want him to he one with you in sym
pathy and in affection, and as you take
his name so you assume the response
bilities as far as his people are con-
cerned. You two are the most of each
other-your love for each should be the
greatest, but you can not isolate your
selves and insist that you have duties
outside your own home. If you do this
you become narrow and selfish, and you
are quite too nice a girl for that. So
remember when he comes, this BRIDE
groom of yours, that his heart is bound
the tighter to you if the ribbon used to
hold it has written upon it in golden
letters, Love and consideration for
those at home. Ladies' Home Journal.

Resources of Hudson's Bay.

A Canadian surveyor who was engaged
in an official expedition to Hudson's Bay
in 1885 and 1886 say few people have
any idea Of he resources of this great
sea. It's shores are the haunts of the
musk OK, the moose, the reindeer, the
red deer, the white bear and his black
brother, the otter, the beaver, the mink,
the black fox, also the silver, gray and
white varieties, and Their valuable fur
bearing animals. Its waters are teeming
with the most valuable varieties Of
water mammals and fish. He has seen
the bay as far as the eye could reach
appear one undulating mass OF white
porpoises. Both the hides and the oil
of these are valuable In some parts of
the BAY and in the straits the shores of
the islands are swarming with walrus.
1t has been reported by Prof. Bell that
one island on the east coast was found
to be thickly strewn with the ivory
tusks of the waIrus. The tusks are val
liable, though the chief value of the
walrus lies in the hide, which weighs
on the average 800 po nds, and is worth
from 10 to 20 cents per pound.-Bostor

The Discipline of Judgment.

There is probably no human faculty
that is more in need of faithful and pa
tient cultivation than the Judgment, for
there is none that has more corr plica-
tions to deal with or more difficulties to
overcome. Nevertheless there is per-
haps none which receives less systematic
discipline or upon which people gener-
ally are less willing to expend labor
and thought. They train their chill
dren's memory, exercise their powers OF
expression, school them in habits of
industry, endurance, patience and self
control, but seldom discipline their
Judgment or teach them how to draw
correct conclusions. That, they sup
pose, is something which time and ex.
perience will do for them; yet, when
they see what hasty opinions and i'll
advised judgments are continually
formed by older people, they might in
fer that some definite education in this
respect was necessary for both young
and old.-N. Y Ledger.

The Poorest People on Earth.

In both India and Egypt it is women
who collect the fuel for the family
They do this by going along the road
and gathering up the droppings, which
they take home and dry for tire-wood
Their wages are very small where they
work by the day, and neither men nor
women get more than enough to keep an
American laborer in cigars. Farm
laborers in India get from six to eight
cents a day, and masons receive about
ten cents day. In my tour around the
world l found no place where the people
were so poor as in India, and nowhere
else in the world will you find food SO
scarce that the people look like living
skeletons, and regulate the amount they
eat according to the amount necessary
10 sustain life. In Japan and Burmah
and in Korea the people are poor, but
lteir poverty is nothing like this. In
Egypt they are ground to death with
taxation. but their stomachs are not
stinted to such degree that they can
barely keep alive. There are no signs
of suffering in the faces and limbs of
the people of Palestine and Turkey, and
the only place where starvation is con-
tinually staring the man in the face is
in certain districts of India.-F. G. Car
