The culinary art even owes that favor
lite potage, OK tail soup, to the thrifty
Huguenots, who were accustomed to pur-
chase at peppercorn prices the caudal ap-

At a late meeting of the Royal Botanic
Society, London, an interesting sweet
scented fern from the society's garden
was exhibited. The perfume closely re-
sembles that of fresh hay, and, like it, is
retained after the frond is dry, and lasts
for many months, if not years, imparting
its fragrance to anything in contact with
it. The secretary thought it might be
grown as source of perfume by anna
teurs, if not commercially.

WISE WoRDs.-Mr. Henry Watterson,
one of the most brilliant Democrats in this
country, says in an editorial in his paper,
the Courier Journal:
"What was once the opinion of few
thoughtful men concerning tariff reform has
come to be the conviction Of majority of
the American people,"
Then, after reviewing the history of tariff
legislation and giving Mr.. Cleveland due
credit for the part he played in bringing the
Democracy forward on this great issue, MIR.
WattersOn continues:
democrats now must still force the
fighting. The recent election is only an
episode in the great contest. The panic
stricken enemy will rally their forces next
winter for 1899. No vicsoryis ever 80 COM
plete as at first appears. The resources at
the command of the Republican leaders
cannot be over-estimated. After the assas-
sination of Garfield it seemed as if the Re.
publicans would not be able even to con
test the election of 1884, but the Democrats
succeeded in electing Cleveland only by the
skin of their teeth.
"If we are to succeed in 1892, the cam
paign must open now. The meeting of
Congress in December must find the Dem.
oorats alert, active, aggressive, eager, en-
thuslastic, but not over-cOnfdent. Educa-
tion on the tariff must continue. RecipI0c-
ity is only an ambush to cover the retreat
of the enemy. It is a concession, the mean
iDg and scope of which must be explained
from day to day. 1t is the last position
where the enemy can expect to fight; it is
there they must mabe their last desperate
rally, and they must be driven back with.
out concession or conditions"
These are wise words and cannot fail to
have their influence on the Democratic
leaders as we'll as the rank and file.

minutes thereafter was q model of angelic
sweetness. Then came change, how
ever, aud the infant became more exacting.
John Henry performed various gymnastic
evolutions on the bed for his audience of
one infant, which were duly applauded un-
til the spectator desired change of
programme and made her desire known
very promptly.
After Mrs. Peddicord had been gone an
hour John Henry thought this thing of
staying at home to rest was q delusion and
snare, and he tried to concoct good
reason for foregoing his resolution OF fol-
lowing the prominent physician's advice.
"To be sure" he thought, 'there's
that business with Sparrowgrass ought
to have attended to months ago. He lives
in Froeville, fifteen miles away, over a
very rough road"
John Henry Peddicord dressed himself
and took the baby downstairs, where the
girl was ironing.
s'Norah," said he, "Pm sorry to inter-
rupt your ministrations at the ironing
board, but find it necessary to 60 to the
country, and I'll have to leave the baby
with you. When Mrs. Peddicord returns

The SWEETEST SOUND TO COUNSEL FOR
THE DEFENCE.-The great Dan Voorhees,,
Of Indiana, and the equally great, if not so
celebrated, Joe Maun, of Danville, once de-
Tended a man charged with murder In Ed.
gar county. This case was q serious one
for the defendant, and Voorhees, and Mann
exhausted their talent in his defence, with
scarcely hope of successfully proving his
innocence. The trial was long and bitter
ly contested; the jury was out for hours,
and finally this verdict was read 10 court:
"We, the jury, find the defendant not gull
ty."
As the reading of the verdict broke the
stiffness of the courtroom, Voorhees, sprang
to his feet, seized Mann by the arm with 8
clutch that nesrly took piece out, and in
. hoarse, commanding whisper, said:
"Come on! Let's take walk" They
left the court room aud walked iu silence
down the street for some distance. Then
Voorhees, stopped, laid his hand on Mann's
arm. and said itnpressivsly:
"J0e, you're a good citizen, and I be-
lieve if justice is done you'll get to heaven.
We are told that in that land of perfect
peace and rest there shall be heard such
music as mortal ear has never heard.
Sweet tones will ring on every side; grand
bursts of song will rise from myriad happy
souls in praise of their Redeemer; murmur-
ing melody will float along on every balmy
breeze, and exquisite music will every
where and forever thrill the ecstatic senses
of the blest-but, Joe, in that heavenly
land you will never hear sound so sweet
to human eas as the utterancc of these
words: 'We, the jury, find the defendant
not guilty Now let's g and take drink"

GIRLS WHO MAKE POOR WIvEs.-I never
see petted, pampered girl who is yielded
to in every whim by servants and parents,
that I do not sigh with pity for the man
who will some day be her husband. 1t is
the .worshipped daughter, who has been
taught that her whims and wishes are su-
preme in household. who makes marriage
failure all her life. She has had her way
in things great and small; and when she
desired dresses, pleasures or journeys which
were beyond the family purse, she carried
the day with tears or sulks, or posing as a
martyr. The parents sacrificed and suffer-
ed for her sake, hoping finally to see her
well married. They carefully hide her
faults from her suitors who seek her hand,
and she is ever ready with smiles and allure
ments to win the hearts of men, and the
average man is as blind to the faults Of a
pretty girl as newly-hatched bird is blind
to the worms upon the trees about him. He
thinks her little pettish ways are mere girl
ish moods; but when she becomes his wife
and reveals her selfish and cruel nature he
is grieved and hurt to think fate has been
so unkind to him.-Ella Wheeler Wilcox,
in Ladies' Home Journal.

WOMEN LIKE TO KNOW THEIR HUSBANDS
AFFAIRs.-A wife who knows many wives
says: "Some husbands, when they get home
at night, tell their wives all about the bust
ness of the day.. and about their bank ac-
count, and about the people they met. and
about what was spoken of, and about every
thing else. Other husbands never tell their
wives about their doings during the day,
never speak of the state of their finances
and never refer to their business in their
business in their households. The wife of
such husband knows nothing of his af-
fairs, and is apt to be upset by bad news or
crushed finding out that he is on the road
to ruin. From what have known through
my acquaintance with many fsmilies for
long years. am ready to say that bus
baud should always tell bis wife about hie
business and about the affairs of the day."

Girls Behind the Counter.

If we're asked to give set of rules or
suggestions for girls whose days are spent
behind the counter, they would read some
thing like this
Remember that all the time spent in the
store belongs to your employer.
That courtesy behind the counter wins
even the most captious customer.
That gossip about young men, or with
them, is unbuslness-like, and, under the
circumstances, rude.
Never attempt to instruct customer;
while you may suggest, or politely ques-
ton, the desirability of this or that.
Do not say, "Here Sade, hand me your
pencil" to your neighbor.
Never say, s'No, we haven't got it, }" in a
short, crisp tone; far better polite 81 am
sorry to say we do not have it in stock
Do not thrust package at a customer
as you would pistol in the face of high
wayman.
Never throw down goods with an air
which seems to say, 81 do not care wheth-
or you buy it or not"
Remember that the purchaser often sees
more in the seller than she thinks, and re-
fined young women have made valuable
friends for life by their courtesy to An &C
complished customer.
Always remember, that duty to your EN-
ployer demands your best service, and duty
to yourself ALSO.
Seek to be model saleswOmaD, and
some one will soon recognize your merits.
Dress modsstly and avoid cheap jewelry,
the best ornaments are promptness,
politeness, we'll modulated voice, and
strict attention to duty.
Have your hair neatly combed, your
teeth we'll brushed and your fnger-nails
tidy. Customers are often repelIed by
untldy clerks of either sex.
Remember always, that you are superior
to circumstances on'y whom you make
yourself 30. The most selfish, exacting
employer will gladly recognize the merits
Of an efficient clerk.
Frown down with womanly scOrn the
non sensical title of 'tsaleslady." 1t is a
grand thing to be woman anything; if
you are a true and good woman, a good
clerk is infinitely more respectable than a
so-czlled ''salesiady," and the term has a
shoddyish ring which is totally un-Ameri-
can.
Out Of two hundred clerks in large es-
tablishment, the favorte with nearly all OF
the customers, is young woman who in,
variably dresses modestly in black, and
has such charming manners that it is 3
positive pleasure to visit her depa-tment.-

.WAke Up.

If you wake up in the
morning with a bitter or
bad taste in your mouth,
Languor, Dull Headache,
Dependency, Constipa-
ton, take Simmons Liver
Regulator. It corrects
the bilious stom ach,
sweetens the breath and
cleanses thefurred tongue.
Children as well as adults
sometimes eat something
that does not digest well,
producing Sour Stomach,
Heartburn, Restlessness,
or Sleeplessness-a good
dose Of Regulator will
give relief. So perfectly
harmless is this remedy
that it can be taken by
the youngest infant or
the most delicate person
without injury, no matter
what the condition of the
system may be. It can
do no harm if it does nc
good, but its reputation
for 40 years proves it
never fails in doing good

BY THOMAS DUNNiENGLIsH.

Oh. rare the honey-dew that drips.
By love distilled from baby's lips:
And sweet the breath that from them flows
Laden with odors Of the rose.
Sleep. darling. snugly folded up.
A rosebud in Its mossy cup
Sleep. baby, sleep!
Away from earth her spirit seems
To wander in the land of dreams;
But what within that realmishe sees
Is part of natures mysteries;
The secrets OF her deep repose
The baby never may Disclose
Sleep. baby, sleep
The hush of evening, deep and calm,
Descends to ealt tn with tender balm;
The blossoms fair their petals close.
And nod and sink to soft repose:
Sleep, darling, till the dawn. aud then
Bring glory TO the world again
Sleep, baby. sleep
