Rest q Little.

Good mother, maker of numerous pies.
mender of manifold hose, overseer of
province, rest little. Have chair by
the stove, and when you peep into the
oven sit while you look, yea, even mo-
ment after. You will work all the faster
for the short change Of posture. While
mending, have your chair in the coziest
corner, where good light will come in, if
possible, over your left shoulder. Drop
your hands occasionally and let your eyes
rest by looking at something interesting
out of doors; thus many holy thought
will enter the chamber of your mind and
abide With you. Don't rule all the time.
Drop the reins of government for only
little while and be child with your chill.

fully, longer than your severe discipliogs,
and when commands are necessary, as
they often are, they will be the most po-
tential because occasional.
Rest little, and gather restful things
about you, that you may rest. Every
woman should have cot and an easy
chair in her working room, if this is every
room in the house, then every room
should have resting appurtenances. I
have known houses where there were
several unmade dress patterns folded away
in the drawers, bought because they were
bargains, regardless of need and fitness.
Yet the same houses had not an easy
chair to rest the body, book to entertain
the mind, nor a convenience to tighten
labor. Nor had the inmates a kindly
thought or word for each other, let alone
the work outside. Can God blesss such
homes with children? He does do it.
Yet such surroundings transform the ho.
liest blessings sometimes into what seem
curses Of unspeakable bitterness. These
parents reap but what they have sown.
Let home bring rest to each member of
the family, and let it be the care of each
that mother rests little.

I mean the noble, generous woman.
I lay it to her charge that this mother
breaks herself down. She will not stop
to rest. She tolls, tolls, tolls God pity
her, how grand is her love of us all.
But, madam, why did you not ask your
light footed daughter to run up stairs and
get that box for you? Why drag your
blessed weary feet up there at the close
of day when you have walked more
than sixteen miles about the house? 1
say you are to blame. You are old
enough to know better. You do know
better. But one might as well talk to
to rose and forbid it to breathe out fra
grance and die. Why do you not ask
john to get up and open the window !?
What if he is reading his paper? John
would gladly do it you asked it. John
loves you; but it is not q mans nature to
think of small services in behalf of his
loved ones, rs it is a woman's nature, A
man is always thank full, however, when
be is told what be can do. He feels like
kicking himself that he did not perceive
the necessity of his actron; yet he is
thankful, / assert, if he be at all manly.

How to Keep Sweet Potatoes,

For the benefit of your readers, give
you my experience, extending over TWEEN.
ty years, in preserving sweet potatoes.
When small boy, noticed that my
father, who had costly cellar, never had
potatoes after Christmas, and that he
always had to buy his paintings
from neighbor Tom Phillips. 1 veil re-
member swapping biscuit for potatoes
with the Phillips children at school in
March and April. From this neighbor
l learned how to keep sweet potatoes.
Dig after the first signs of frost are on
the vines. Don't be in hurry about it.
Take plenty of time rather than worry
over getting them in the same day, let
them stay in the patch all night, in small
piles, putting vines over them to keep
frost or heavy dew off. Put one or two
months supply in The cellar I; the others
to keep should be put up as follows:
Take time ard do not be in hurry
Throw up a foundation of dirt at lesst
eighteen inches, large enough to hold
twenty-five bushels or less, never more,
in one hill. On this foundation should
be spread dry pine straw a. least six
inches deep. After the potatoes have
been carefully piled on, coat with four
or FIVE inches of dry pine straw on this
place corn stalks vertically, making
each stalk fit snug and close to its neigh.
bor-one round Of stalks being sufficient.
Let stalks lap over apex of hill. Then
carefully cover with dirt about three
inches thick until the weather gets colder,
when an additional coating of dirt will
be necessary. Ahoays leave top Of hill
free from dirt The straw and tapping
stalk ends are sufficient protection. An
old window shutter, door or eighteen
inch board placed slopingly, with slope
to the north, is all the shelter needed
The colder the winter, the more dirt is
necessary on the hills, too much dirt will
cause rot in mild weather. Potatoes are
more often damaged by heat than by cold
Take down q whole hill, as necessity
requires, for table or market, and 60

Marks of stealing jewelry and moneys from
Mrs. Koppel, widow of the proprietor of the
New York Jewish Times, was continued to-
day. Mrs Koppel testified yesterday as to
the intimate relations that existed between
herself and Marks, and to-day she was SUBJ
jected to a cross-examination.
She testified that she signed receipts for
moneys without knowing the nature of
the documents. She was probably drunk
her drunk. She sigued n bill of sale of the
paper to Marks, but received no money for
it. She might have signed denial of the
charge that Marks had robbed her,
but she never heard of it. She
had never sworn to such a denial.
Soon after becoming acquainted with her
Marks got her to sign power of attorney.
She did not then know what that meant.
She was then on affectionate terms with him.
They lived together as man and wife, and
she was ready to sign anything for bim.

The Election Bill was then taken up, and
Berry spoke in opposition. As an illustration
OF the bad effects of such law he referred
to the recent appointment by United States
Circuit Judge Williams in Arkansas of John
Mcclure as Chief Supervisor of Elections.
Judge Williams, he said, lost the confidence
OF large portion of the people Of Arkansas
on account OF his imposing on them the very
high functions OF that office. The same
thing might occur in all the other States, the
Supervisors holding their Office for life. If
the Circuit Judges were Democrats as they
are now Tor the most part Republicans, the
bill would not be advocated on the other side
of the chamber. II was, therefore, a parti-
