- TEKBiR.

"Do We hear the voice of angel or Of mortal
Chant the praises OF the Prophet, far or near?
From the desert round about us, or Heavens
portal,
Fallcth any sound Of Worship on the carr"
Thu the c2liph questioned close Of his attend
ants
In the still and lonely watches of the night,
While the crescent of their faith with its re-
spleudcnco
Rendered all the desert landscape ghostly
white.
"Not whisper low from angel lips or mortal
In the stiffness OF the desert do we hear,
Not u strain OF song escaping from heavens
portal
Comcth to the eager soul or listening ear"
Thus the soldiers spake the calph; by this
Well their chieftain knew he heard the low
Tekhr;
This It was of which his heavenly guest had
spoken,
Sounding only to his hearing soft and clear
Glad he was. for in his light, unquict sleeping,
In the deep and silent watches of the night,
All unseen, past guards their faithful vigils
keeping,
To his tent had come Il messenger of light
BY the bedside of the caliph stood the stranger,
Babe the troubled sleeper be of hearty cheer,
For voice should lead his people out of danger,
such voice as no one else but him should
hear.
"Tollow," said the stranger, "where that voice
shall call thee,
Though it lead thee through the desert wild
and drcar;
In Obedience no evil can befall thee
Let thy people also follow without fear;
Where IL ccaseth thou shalt found for them a
city.
War and pcstilenco shall never more come
Hear;
Rise and lead thy trusting followers in pity,
Rise and listen for the mystical Tokbr."
AT tie dawn the caliph forward boldly riding
Bore the standard Of the Prophet in the van,
Followed close upon his low mysterious guild
iul,
Careless aught Of earth or sky above to scan
When at cven tho mystic Chant no longer
rouuGcd
There the tired legion halted, horse and man
There the Kiblah Of the Prophets faith was
founded,
There va, traced the holy city of Kairwan.

clcs That Combine Use and Beauty.
4 simple style OF decoration just now
finding favor takes the form Of number
Of roundcls or waters worked in chain
stitch upon linen or serge foundation.
These waters are begun in the middle and
are worked in charging circles round and
round till they are about the size of II cop
per two cent piece. Sometimes five rows
are placed round the edge OF ten cloth or
quilt the waters in each row being tribe
smaller than those in the preceding row,
till the smallest are only the size Of peas.
For variety they can be arranged in
groups OF five, three or seven, scattered at
equal distance over the background Upon
n silk or satin foundation the waters arc
not unfrequently made Of strands Of gold
thread, which are placed as closely as pos
sible together, Hnd sewn down with fine
but strong yellow silk.
The most fashionable niithtdvess sachets
are very large, from IS to % inches square.
They are all wadded and scented. They
are made as n square pocket, open at two
sides, one corner turned up AMI border
ed with cord in preference to lace Ivory
satin would be best, with the monogram
painted in letters formed of flowers, and
accompanied by sprays of flowers.

painted with small flowers and grasses in

of light blue satin is fixed in the bowl Of
