Chaplain Waldron, Of the Massachu-
sets House, who as the occupant Of that
place for the last thirteen years has
given universal satisfaction was mildly
demonstrated with the other day because
of certain petition in his morning
prayer. He had asked the Lord to help
his servants redeem the time, enabling
them to do two days work where they
had done only one before, and to strike
two blows in the place of one. Soon
afterward he was buttonholed by one Of
the solons, who said. See here, chap
lain, that kind of prayer won't so down
here, with all these labor reformers clam
oring for shorter days and less work.
The minister took his rebuke with his
characteristic meekness, and did not
even intimate that the persons whom he
had especially in mind were the dilly
dallying lawmakers themselves. Con

Now Is the time to remember and car
ry out some of the many suggestions you
all have read for taking care of the com
plexion. The raw winds and bright sun
shine of the early spring are more dis
astrous to delicate coloring than the
burning sun of summer Besides, after a
winters campaign Of gayety, with little
sleep, little rest, continual excitement
and the lavish use of powder, if not
rouge, even "A debutante's fair skin is in

Perhaps there is no time in the year
when the Turkish bath is more beneficial
in quickcning the various processes Of
nature than in the spring, when they arc

haven't time for such heroic treatment
remember to wear always veil in the

the fine dust which it deposits in the

Then any healing lotion may be used to
take away the smarting sensation due to

and | then made careful examination
of the men and loads, and found that we
should be Obliged to leave fifty-six men
and eighty-oue loads behind. Many of
the men were SO cowed aud hopeless that
thev wished only to be left TO die peace
fully where they were.
But any man who was mt all able to
crawl along we passed as lit to travel,
and those fifty-six men we left were near
~ all in the last stage Of starvation and
sickness. AT any rate, we thought that
their chances of getting food would be
better if they came with us, and nothing
could be gained by remaining where they
were.
We had great difficulty in getting the
men off with the loads, and it was past
midday before the last Of the caravan
filed out Of what is now known rs Mel
sons starvation camp. l lind the fol-
lowing words in my journal that morn
ing:
1T is a truly terrible position for Mel
son TO be left in; he has food only for
three DAYS, and will have to exist on
what he can pick up in the shape Of
fungi or roots Stairs has left him a
fish hook and line, and it is e>)ssible he
may get a few small fish, but the river is
so rapid and full of powders that he has
but a slight chance of catching any
thing.
meantime we are going on with an
exhausted and starving column to try
and find food in trackless wilderness
Nelson is now so crippled from ulcers
that he cannot creep far from camp, and
will have to depend entirely upon wha,
his two boys can manage to bring him.
1--WE got off about two o'clock, and
sadly said goodby to poor old Nelson,
for his position is very precarious and
our chances of relieving him small; he
has worked with Us in good fellowship
all these months, and now we are prac-
tically abandoning him. "A. J. Noun

would be a great convenience and very
acceptable to women in business.

1t is Il matter Of wouderment to many
what becomes Of the tons upon tons Of
dairy butter piled up year after year in
the wholesale grocery stores and com
mission houses of our cities. and which
the average American would not allow
on his table. The poorer the butter
the further it goes, said large butter
dealer of this city, as he packed rolls and
prints Of various colors and sizes in a
Sugar barrel lined with butter cloths.
That expresses it in more ways than
one. Good butter always finds a ready
market here at home; it never goes beg
glng for buyers at any time of the year,
but packing grade goes to the end of the
earth. The contents Of this barrel will
go to South America"
Not just as it is
'No; it will undergo manipulation.
The firm to whom this is to be shipped
melt down this grade of butter and pack
it in glass jars. By the time it reaches
South American port it is of about tn .
same consistency as olive oil. The South
Americans use it on their bread as we
use butter. 4 large proportion of pack,
ing stock shipped from the northwest
goes ultimately to European countries. -

century longer without producing a sec
