AFTER THE SNOW STORM.

Each tail fir stands in white arrays
A keen north wind is Sbisthng by,
The clouds take wing and soil away,
Like huge gray birds, across the sky;
While through the pasture, bleak and cold
A streams black winnings can trace,
And DER yon mountain, rugged, bold,
The new moon shows a frosty face.

Glittering Fads.

The shell of a clam reproduced in
silver makes a pretty butter dish.
Pansies, roses and ferns worked in
repousse on the back of a silver hand
mirror have pretty effect
A gold locomotive headlight, with a
diamond set in place of the glass, makes
an appropriate scarf-pin for railroad
men.
A squirrel Of gold perched on a
branch Of the same material, with a
thistle of diamonds and rubies in its
paws, is a unique lace-pin.
A silver gilt hand mirror of recent
importation has an Italian mountain
scene in oil, showing through thick
bevelled glass on the back.
Two small hearts of moss agate, al
most hidden in branch Of variegated
gold leaves, is lace-pin that will
shortly appear on the market.
Two squirrels, each engaged in
gnaWlng at nut, WIN pidlH OAR
resting on their backs makes a silver
knife rest that possess many attrac-
tions.
The chrysanthemum is be repoduc-
ed in almost every article of jewelry.
Lace and scarfpins, however, appear
to be favorite articles for showing it.
Quite elaborate and handsome is a
silver shaving mug with aplain, bright
band encircling the top, and with the
bottom chased to represent a wicker
basket.
A silver napkin ring that is attrac-
ting much attention from those arts
tically inclined, represents broken
kettledrum resting on wrecked gun
carriage wheel.
Prominent silverware dealers say
that bright repousse will soon predomi-
nate over the dull and oXidized articles
of last season. Some very handsome
styles in this class of ornamentation
are being produced.-JeaOeIters Week

Pretty Hard on a Poor Man.

He had just come in from days
fishing in the perch pool, and was IN
the act of opening his mouth TO tell OF
his exploits when his wife, closing the
book which she had been reading,
said ooh it's you, George, dear. I'm
glad to see you back. 1t was so dull
with you away that | took up the
Bible to pass the time, and was reading
the Book of Revelations as you come
in. That's wonderful book. And,
just think, it says, All liars shall have
their part in the lake which burneth
with fire and birthstone Have you
caught anything!' "No, Mary" he
answered !; 81 didn't catch thing, but
| thought, as | went out to get fish, we
might as we'll have string, so | called
at the fish store and bought these:
She said she was glad to get the fish,
and talked to him with much cheerful
ness but he was gloomy and preoccu-
pied, and scarcely said word in reply
and, in short time, giving the excuse
that he was tired, went off TO bed. Pool

Practical Suggestions.

He submits himself to be seen
through a microscope who suffers him
self to be caught in passion.
If you borrow you must lend there
fore whatsoever you are unwilling that
men should borrow of you, borrow not
Of them.
If your mind is not upon your work
you can not expect to accomplish it
with any degree of satisfaction to others
or credit to yourself.
The more man follows Nature and
is obedient to her laws the longer he
will live the further he deviates from
these, the shorter will be his existence
Cultivate every physical sense, but
hold tight check-rein closely fastened
at the brain and heart, that none Of
the physical senses may gain the as
tendency over the mental or spiritual
perceptions.
Let every dawn of morning be to
you as the beginning of life and every
setting sun be to your as its close.
Then let every one of these short lives
leave its sure record of some kind thing
done for others, some goodly strength
or knowledge gained for yourselves.
Do not permit yourself to make a
positive statement even about small
matter unless you are quite sure for
if you do you will find the habit grow
ing upon you, and by and by you will
begin to make loose replies to questions
of great Importance. Don't be too
certain.
Try the plan of paying cash for
every thing you buy. If you have not
got the ready money borrow it. The
banker will loan it to you at a less rate
of interest than you will have to pay
the merchant for credit. When mer-
chants sell on time without notes or
security they are forced by necessity
to cover their risks by charging high
for credit. 1t will not pay you to
make banker Of your merchant Pay
him cash, even if you have to borrow
the money with which to do it.

A Great Master of Men.

A weather-beaten women Of melan

"You hev Even been to place

"Who was Mr.. Dodson ?'
"My third man, and a right smart
fellow he was. He had cousin named

"The "widder" put her handkerchief

They walked away, both looking

his arm around Polly, quite regardless
of the hay-makers.
To say the Squire was surprised
would be to say the least. Dorothy
treated them with GOODNESS, declaring
she had been shamefully treated, but

Position of Beds.

Possibly the attention Of very few
mothers has been directed to the i'm
portance of the position of their chill
dren's beds. With certain orderly,
careful mothers a small alcove adjoin-
ing their sleeping room is generally
considered suitable, leaving the main
room so much freer for other uses.
But to what fate are we consigning
our child when we exile him to the
alcove Here turks all the stale, witt
ated, or, as we might say, dead air,
undisturbed by the freer current of
the main room. The child, breathing
this air night after night, experiences
loss of vitality, a tendency to colds,
and languid, depressed condition in
the morning, quite different from the
refreshed awakening in pure air.
1t has been demonstrated that the
beds nearest the walls in hospitals have
tbs highest rate of mortality, they
being subject to influence of polluted
air similar to the alcove of the bed
room. The existence of bad ventila-
ton around the corners and sides OF
rooms bias been so well demonstrated
that it has already given rise to the
the building Of rotunda hospitals,
where the current of air along the
floor rise as it reaches the wall, effect
ually ventilating the whole. The first
suggestion of this idea came from the
dropping Of small piece Of paper
near the center of a rotunda, where il
SKINNED along the floor and rose as ii
reached the wall In an ordinary
room a similar experiment with a
piece of thistle down will indicate the
usual direction of the air current.
