oppose it. Contrast is as essential as sim
plicity to good taste in household decora-
ton.
In selecting papers for the walls one
should not trust simply to the pattern
books. a paper that has been ordered
will often look darker or lighter after it
is hung than it did in the pattern-book.
In order to avoid disappointment in this
respect 1t is advisable to take several
lengths of the paper and suspend them
side by side on the wall and notice care
fully the general effect it has upon the eye
and the room. The leaves of certain plants,
conventionally treated, are very effective
decorative forms. The ivy, maple, oak
and fig leaves are beautifully adapted to
this purpose. and they come in large and
small designs on wall paper. Where two
shades of the same color are employed,
and quietness of effect is especially de-
sired. the oyerlaid tint should be but very
little darker than the ground; and if draw
ings and other things are to be hung up
on it, the pattern should be hardly dis
cernible from little distance.
The most dreary method OF decorating
the wall OF a sitting-room is to cover it all
over with an unrelieved pattern of mono
tonous design. Yet many housewives
who are careless about such matters, or
probably do not know the secret OF the
art, will do this every spring that their
paper is changed. Paper-hanging should
in no case be allowed to cover the whole
space OF wall from skirting to ceiling A
plinth space of plain color. either in paper
or distemper, should be left to hight of
two or three feet from the floor A light
wood moulding, stained or gilded. should
separate this from the paper above. A
second space of frieze, left just below the
ceiling and filled with arabesque orna-
ment, is always effective, but, of course.
always involves more expense. Gold,
when judiciously introduced, is always a
valuable adjunct in the design of paper
hangings, but it frequently doubles and
sometimes trebles the price of a piece.

Dinners are being given later and later
in the evening. There was time when
nearly all people dined at 6 or $3.50. The
hour was moved along by halves, and
even quarters, until year or so ago 1850
was the proper time. This has now been
brought down to s, and q few nights since
one OF the largest parties given this sea-
son in New York began at $3.50, the
guests rising from the table shortly before
in the morning. The struggle between
the early rising habits of business m en-
and the customs of the Anglomaniacs
goes on increasingly. and the latter are
unquestionably gaining at all points.
Perhaps this accounts somewhat for the
hapgard, sleepless look OF the average
New York man.

persons obtain possession OF more than
one-half of the accumulated wealth of the
country, 1T is impossible that others
should have a competence. So it happens
that society is becoming rapidly stratified
hopelessly stratifed, into the condition
OF the supsrfuously rich and the help
lessly poor"
This is the origin of the industrial aues-
ton. That there should be a bitter
quarrel between labor, which produces,
and capital. which absorbs, everything,
goes without the saying. And this con-
test is wasteful. The estimate is that dur
ing the past year alone the actual loss to
labor. without estimating capitals loss,
arising from strikes and interruptions of
traffic has been at least S}00,000,000.
1t is a great thing to have public atten-
ton directed to this vast subject. With
information will come light. The keen
American mind will find or invent some
remedy for the present tendency toward
national pauperization on one hand and
unlimited individual accumulation on the
other hand. We are not going to allow a
few thousand mushroom families to APP
propriate the United States.
Meanwhile, it is the duty OF the church,
not in the demagogue spirit. but after the
fashion OF the divine carpenter of Jerusa-
lem, to identify itself with and properly
champion the toiling millions. The
preachers should make it clear that they
are not the chaplains of the millionaire.
The text Tor the times is the golden rule.

THE PHARIsEE OF TODAY.
Ruth Ashmore's Suggestive Letter to n Girl
on Christian Charity.


In her side talks with girls in the Ladies
Home Journal, Ruth Ashmore says:
"She's not of my religion" very en-
phatically said young woman standing
behind the counter of big shop. l
stopped and listened and then said:
"Will you tell me what your religion
is?"
Very quickly she answered: AZ am a
Christian, and the girl on the other side
of me is a catholic, while the one on my
right is Jewess, and of course they are
both different from me-"
l sat down there and looked at that girl
and wondered who had taught her Chris
tianitv, and then asked her il she would
give me her name and address as
wanted to write her little letter, and
this is what | wrote:
You are yet a very young woman; You call
yourself Christian and you act as a heather
never would. You forget the first element OF
Christianity. which should be respect for Juda-
ism, because Christ himself was jew. You
forget the first teaching OF Christianity, which
is respect for a church that Is older than any
other except the Jewish. aud which, in giving
it's great charities, does not ask, "What church
is your religionY You think you are Christian
you are not. You will not be until you learn
that an aggressive position is never taken by
the followers of Christ, save when II is neces-
sary to keep shame from His name; and you,
by your lack of consideration for your CO.
workers; you, by your marvellous display of ig-
nOrance, have shamed the name OF Christian
and stand a self-confessed barbarian. What
do you suppose each of these girls thinks of
your faith? II is very difficult TO believe that
figs grow from thistles. And how can your col.
Iaborers imagine that good actions will result
from bgoted words? Your words picture
your soul--what do they make it seem? Sup.
pose you ask the girl on your right 70 tell you
something of the beautiful ritual in which
Christ Himself was born and educated. Sup
pose you get the girl on your right to tell you
a little bit about some of the wonderful works
of charity done in the catholic church. Sup
pose you tell them Of the work you are doing.
though fear you are not doing any. And
suppose you three girls, each believing differ
emily, each having a faith that is worthy OF re-
spect, should work together for good each
giving the helping hand to the other. each hav-
ing the proper respect for the other, and each
being glad at the Others time OF gladness and
sorrowful when unhappy days come.

In Birmingham a similar company was
formed in 1877 with a capital of 500, 900.
This pays from 10 to 10 per cent
Here is hint for home imitation. IT'S
not easy nowadays to get 10 per cent. divi-
dends. Liquor gets it. If temperance
also can, who would not become share
holder in a coffee house company?
The best way to fight the saloon is by
competition. When sobriety is completely
sober it will offer to inebriety counter
attractions. A coffee house with all the
accommodations and allurements of a sa-
loon, save the liquor, would be found, and
where tried has been found, a successful
and blessed rival

Boston Market.

The Boston Journal reports has the
following:
''Be cautious about reporting the but
ter market this week. said a large re-
ceiver yesterday. Il am getting about
half cent more than last week, and
some of my neighbors are asking a cent
advance, but trade is not brisk and / am
afraid of a reaction" Others dealers,
more confident, quote full cent advance
and talk of going still higher before the
month is out. The strength of the mar
ket is based wholly on the very small
stocks here and the light supplies coming
in.
Prices were somewhat irregular. For
what are called extra brands of creamery
! 81 to 27l5 cents was obtained and fancy
| sold at 2S cent. The jobbing price was
| advanced to 80 cents, and Il few brands
with high reputation were marked at
81 cents. Western lines have been taken
! freely for export. Common grades are
not much wanted abroad, but they are
not in large stock and cause no uneasi-
ness. There was some looking around
Yesterday for fine dairy lost, for which
% to &c cents could be obtained, but most
of the dairy receipts were defective and
had to be sold at lower range The mar
ket all through has a healthy tone, and
the season will go out with clean boards,
if sellers are not too anxious to get high
rates.
The cheese situation maintains all the
strong elements previously reported, and
stocks are steadily being decreased.
Trade is not active-in fact, it is slow
but sales from day to day make up a fair
business and holders are satisfied that all
the old cheese stock will be wanted be-
fore there is much new to take its place.
The best quality is not dear at 10 5cents,
and some of the fancy brands are taken
at IL cents. A line of about 400 boxes of
September and October make, with per-
haps some late August, was clean up at
1917 cents, which is considered good
trade Medium grades at s p to 10 cents
go off pretty well.
