POOR AND VET Rloa,

NO wealth on earth except that Godlike gift,
A happy nature and unbroken health,
And sweet contented heart thoughts which
can lift
No Joy on earth except IL be to watch
The ev'ning crimson tingeing earth and sky;
Or burden of the wild birds song TO catch
When scented night winds hum their lullaby.
No rank on earth except his rank who stands
Free, pure before his God and asks TO know
That perfect Justice at His mighty hand
Omniscient mercy only can bestow,
No hope on earth except that time shall free
His soul at last to pass beyond deaths portal
Where wealth and JOY and rank and hope shall
be
The heritage of all who once were mortal

The art muslins and thin silks used in

fashion of losing their freshness very cas-
lily. lady far removed from professional
cleaners experimental with some muslins
to sec whether they might be washed OF
not, and found that some of the reds, vel
lows and terra cottas did fairly well. She
says; II any one likes to try they should
make a soapy lather with hot water; when
lukewarm thoroughly wash and shake the
muslin in it, Rinse it quickly in clean
water with little salt in it; then roll in a
large soft towel and squeeze out the water.
Have some irons ready, iron out the mate
rial at once while wet on the wrong side,
and hang it when done near the fire to COM
plete drying The muslin will then be
slightly stiffened, but not too much. This
applies to the patterned art muslins, not
the cheap whole colored ones.

DECORATIVE NOTES.
How to Make Charming Frames for
Etchings and Other Useful Hints.

now TO MAKE Charming Frames for
Etchings and Other Useful Hints.
With China silk in pale pink, blue, cream
or other delicate tint, very pretty frame
for small engravings or etchings can be
made. The foundation Of the frame may
be fiat, thin wood or heavy pasteboard,
over which the silk is stretched. Cut the
silk in lengthwise strips and lay them fiat
on the frame, but make a full puff in each
corner where the strips join.
An exceedingly attractive teacloth has a
decoration of violets embroidered in the
natural color and looking as if they had
been scattered carelessly over the white
cloth.
Large cushions are well liked, and an
unused bed pillow Of medium size can be
converted into a handsome sofa cushion by
making for it crazy patchwork cover
deliberately worked over in fancy stitches.
A favorite fashion is to throw a large
square or length of any brocaded material
over couches, chairs and plain cushions.
These squares make pretty presents for
babies. They are edged with lace and in
tended to throw over the child when asleep
in bed
One Of the best of sponge bags is OF
butchers linen, embroidered in linen floss
or wash silk 1t is lined with rubber sheet
ing and gathered up on draw string.
Colors are much used in embroidery or
white linen and give a rich appearance,
but too much diversity of this kind causes
a muddled, unpleasant look, and it is a re
lief to turn to teacloths, etc, worked with
simple outline pattern in one color only
In this case the design may be allowed tc
extend almost over the cloth One of the
easiest and best forms Of outlining con
sists simply of backstitch This is an old
stitch revived, but few equal it in delicacy
and effectiveness

Why His Salary Was Not Raised.

EYES," said the gray haired, kindly
looking old man thoughtfully, 81
thought of promoting James and in
creasing his salary. He has been here a
long time and has been exceedingly
faithful; but I'm afraid | can't do it,
Poor boyl His family physician says
that he has some heart trouble, and that
any surprise or undue excitement would
kill him."
SIS it as bad as that" asked the
cashier.
Indeed it is" responded the gray
haired old man with a sigh. "I'm sorry
for the poor lad, but I don't see what I
can do"
"Well, if he's doomed to an early
grave" said the cashier slowly, "the
least we can do is to see that he dies
happy"
Eyes; that's all there is left" acqui-
esced the proprietor.
And from what l know of James,"
continued the cashier, che couldn't die q
happier death than one caused by pro-
motion and an increase of salary"
"Do you really think so?" asked the
kindly old man interestedly. "Pd like
to do nice thing for James,"
ooh, I'm sure of it. If it killed him
he'd die with smile on his lips, per-
fectly happy and at peace with the
world"
The old man reused himself after a
moments thought, slowly shook his
head and said:
"No. I'd like to do the proper thing
for James, but | haven't much conf
dence in that doctor. Tn afraid he
doesn't know his business. Wen let 1t

The body of this curtain is of blue denim
the lighter side being used. The band
is worked in outline on Bolton sheeting OF
unbleached muslin, with indigo blue Bar
bour thread, which has very much the
effect of rope silk. The ribbon in the band
should be rather a heavy one with corded
edge to prevent the stitches showing where
1t is sewed on. 1t should be sewed on, just
gathering where needed to follow the de
sign. The flowers may then be worked in
in outline, cutting the ribbon where it lies
under the flowers.
