trusted-by curious freak Of nature. Truly
''man proposes, God disposes."
Coming suddenly upon the suicides grave one
night, 1 thought saw his wrath standing against
the steep bank below. 1t was tall shadowy figure
and on its face shone a CHASTITY light I tried to
reason, it is tall tree stump; but no, it sways it
moves. Is it the shadow of some wnd-tossed
foliage or dropping moss? Then what strange
light! Is it the ghost of the poor wretch? Is his
spirit restless because his ashes may not lie IN
peace? think not for has not Levi, the darkie
driver told me, CLOSES is mighty fear'd o. sper-
rits and ghos-tes, an dey allus sees 'em if deyr
dar" Now the horse showed no indication of
fear, so ''sperrt'' it could not be.
Well it turned out to be only tall "Spanish
bayonet" or Yucca, which some kindly hand had
planted to prevent the soil from washing away
They are planted thickly in washes, to hold the
soil and prevent its cavng. This was fine speci-

saw some curious old Spanish deeds and plats
of land. Those old Spaniards knew what they
were about, when they secured the rich land along
the creeks, for it produces excellent cotton and
corn But the unique way In which those panta-
tions are laid out, following the creeks without the
slightest regard to section lines or even to regu-
larity of form, they are curiosties to this day.

For Rosebuds of Marriage.

Let me venture few little points to those Of
my girls who since the summer have worn bright
ring on their third finger:
My dear, don't let the man to whom you are
engaged to be married pay any Of the expenses of
your living or trousseau, until you are his wife, A
calico dress and contentment are much more to be
desired than fine silk one garnitured with scandal.
Don't complain to the man to whom you are
engaged of the different members OF your own
family; it is not good preface to matrimonial
bliss
Don't write silly letters to him, even if he is
fond Of affection given in that way Let it be by
word of mouth, rather than with pen and ink.
Don't expect him to love you as no man has
ever loved before; the methods Of loving are very
much the same all the world over. Be satisfied il
you have got good, honest love.
Don't believe that he is combination in beauty
Of all the ancient gods, of all the gallant knights
and Of all the great statesmen; but conclude that
he is gentleman, and that should be your ideal.
Don't believe that he is thinking Of your every
hour of his life. He is not; be satisfied if he is
working away, with every now and, then giving
thought to the girl for whom he is making home
over which he expects her to preside as a loving,
thoughtful wite.-Ladies' Home Journal

Why Is There Objection to Domestic
Service?
Service?

BY Helen Campbell, in Good Housekeeping
1t is evident that the readers of Good House.
keeping find less reason to ask this question than
the majority Of h0usekeepers, since, with one ex-
cepton, it has remained unasked through all the
months in which this department has done its
work. The first interest with all has seemed to
be as to methods Of earning, either pocket money
or living, nor does it show any signs OF tagging.
From other quarters, however, there is not only
question, but more or less excited discussion as to
what keeps the American girl out Of the kitchen,
and why domestic service as a whole has fallen
into such disfavor. For many there is a convit-
tou that return to it would solve all problems &C
companying the woman's side Of the labor ques-
ton; that unpaid neede-women, and all who toll
for long hours and small pay, would find comfort
able homes, large wages and all the allsviations Of
modern life.
Within the last year or so popular writer, who
has for years been an authority on household econ
omy, has recorded her convictions in the matter in
one of the great New York dailies. Her state
ment of difficulties was curiously petulant, ILL
tempered one, and it ended in these words:
Fy thousand victims of the sellers greed and the buyers
selfish thoughtessness could tomorrow make breathing
better wages for sister II they would accept
for themselves easy work and good pay In villages and rural

holds them back from household Service for there no COM
doors Still less it the dread of unknd treatment from
their employers Caste prejudice contemplate In quality
mighty Its grip upon mind and SOUL condemns them to

then will boldly that she prefers liberty and crust
plenty Let her. them stand bravey In her
better directed to the alienation of unavoidable suffer
ing"
In some coming day Of better knowledge dis
tant still this may prove as true in fact as it is at
present in theory But this writer and her school
ignores the fact that the chief lion in the way Of
all these wretched workers is the want of any
training industrial or otherwise, that might fit
them for better work or better wages. Every
large city or town in the United States holds its
numbers who are practically helpless TO earn
bread for the day SO absorbs them that they can
not or dare not stop to think Of other methods.
Most of them have not clothing that would admit
them into decent intelligence Office ard are
hampered by children who could not 60 with them
into domestic service. They are part Of the
''soca residium," and in their well-nigh hopeless
ignorance battle the wisest who would help
For the thousands coming under this head, it is
folly to think of making them part OF our house

1t is not a dream,
1t is not a dream.

1t is not dream,
1t is not a dream.
1t is not dream,
There is fairer world than this,
By mortal eyes unseen;
The angels dwell in bliss
1t is not dream,
There's faith that tells of love,
OF the glow of the jasper sheen
And the pearly gates above.
1t is not dream,
1t Is not dream.
1t is not dream,
There is City that lies afar
Through hopes illumlned CLEAN
1t shneth like star
1t is not dream.
There are streets of shining gold,
With jewels set between,
And glories yet untold.
1t is not dream,
1t is not dream.
1t is not dream,
Beyond those airy walls,
Girdled by crystal stream,
No blight, no mildew falls
1t Is not dream.
beyond the wide expanse
OF deaths relentless stream,
Are visions that entrance.
1t is not dream,
1t Is not dream.
1t Is not dream,
There's faith that tells of peace,
OF olive leaves and vine set scene
Where strife and turmoil cease
1t is not dream.
Beyond the sunsets light
Are mansions yet unseen
And rivers Of delight
1t Is not dream,
1t Is not dream.
1t is not dream,
We shall cross the murky tide;
We shall see the robes that CLEAN
OF the Lamb prepared as BRIDE
1t is not dream.
Amid the angel throng
We will join in the glorious theme
And praise him with song.
1t Is not dream,
1t Is not dream.

their pastor was to return TO them from
conference, on Tuesday evening of last
week, for another year, prepared to give
him pleasant surprise by gathering at
the parsonage. Unfortunately a postal
came to the Office stating that the pastor
could not return until Wednesday evening,
which divided the forces. The families in
town were notified, and also some out of
town, but such families as received no
word drove in and took possession of the
parsonage and spent a pleasant evening
with the pastors family, leaving the larder
OF the parsonage more plentifuliy filled
than they found it. The pastor on Sunday
expressed sorrow for his absence and also
thanked those who were present and those
who would have been present had the tell
tale postal not arrived.

The winter has been so open that the
farmers are well up with their work, some
of them having nearly all their corr ground
ploughed and their eompests nearly ready
for early truck. 1t is thought the peach
crop is ruined by the very open winter, but
hope is entertained that the apple crop is
still safe. The wheat in this region is
more forward now than in former years in
the middle of April.
