Fortunes in Carriers,

From the WOman'S journal.
Marie Jansen, Marion ManOla, Bes-
sic Cleveland, Mrs. Langtry, Cora
Tanner, Lillian Russell, Carmencita,
Marie HaltOn and many other &C
tresses of prominence make garters q
study, and if they were to loose their
minds on the subject they could tell
lots and lots of interesting stories
about carriers which will probably
never be known.
Fay Templeton, in speaking of gar
tsrs one afternoon, told several chums
that since she was girl she had
never worn garter except present
or two, which she wore so loose that
they did not actually have any effect
on the stockings. She always wore
supporters from the waist, she said,
and remarked that any woman
was fool to spoil the
shape of her limb by squeezing the
flesh into q smaller space than is &C.
tually required to thrive in. Minnie
Palmer has the largest and most val
liable assortment of carriers that is
known of, and if what is said be true
she never wears the same pair twice
in a month. Corinue is also another
lady who has fortune to hold up her
stockings with. When she was
IA years of age she had forty-three
pairs of carriers, and now she
has l43 different kinds worth,
tom 81 to $1,000 (?) pair.
Fanny Rice is another actress who
can snow an almost unlimited stock
of garters. She has In all 2l2
pairs, which are valued at So, OO0-
She takes q great deal of interest in
this part of her wardrobe, and when
she was playing Javot in Erminie it
was said that she never wore the
same pair of carriers in the second act,
when she wore the real short skirts,
twice in the same season.

Words of Wisdom.

Gods mercy never fails, but when
the sinner sees his own heart as it is,
he has no mercy on himself.
No man can ever take a single step
toward heaven unless he is looking
toward Christ while he does it.
If some people could look them
selves squarely in the face, they
would want to have their heads cut
off.
When the devil don't know what
else to do in the church, he most gen
orally kicks up a rumpus in the choir.
AS long as we look at other people
to find out what God is doing, we
shall be sure to be disappointed.
Nobody wants to keep runaway
horse, but good many keep runaway
tempers and think nothing of it.
There is nothing dry or monoto-
nous about the testimony of people
who continually walk and talk with
God.
Men turn coldly away from us
when we fail to accomplish the grand
things we set out to do, but God new
er does.
Sweetness that never sOurs will do
more to smooth your pathway through
this vale of tears than considerable
money.
Every sin is an avenger on the
track of the man who commits it,
and if not confessed and forsaken it
will kill him.
Whenever a man wants anything
and can't get it, it's about the same
as throwing dust over everything he
does have.
The sermon that does the most to
make men fall in love with Jesus
Christ is the one that has the most
of God in it.

TO THE
Farmers of Vermont.

1t has incidentally come to my
knowledge that you occasionally
make complaints because Of the
small sums received for your Dairy
skins. The fault is your own, for
if you would take them off and
properly care for them you would
rarely find a skin that would bring
you less than so cents, and a great
many of them would bring you 60,
70 and even 80 cents each.
Poor skins, like poor butter, are
poor property and bring a poor
price. 1t will cost you only a
penny for a postal card on which
to send me your address, to secure
full printed directions as to the
proper method of taking off and
caring for your calf skins. | will
very gladly mail these to you free,
postpaid, if you will send me your
name and so request.
In most of the towns OF Yer
mont | have buyers. but IN locall-
ties where [ have none | would
suggest that half dozen farmers
club together and ship their skins
in quantities Of % or more. in
which ease | will pay all freights
after delivery at r. r. depot. |
cannot allow you wholesale prices
in towns where | have buyer, but
where ] have none | will gladly ar
range with any reliable farmer who
is willing to attend to the matter of
collecting skins taken off in his Vi
entity, and in such case will OF
course allow the buyers commits

Prohibition the Ultlmatum.

/. The effects Of alcohol crOa0n-
ing curse. It's horrors bave never
been fully portrayed. No pencil is
black enough to paint the picture and
do it full justice. No tongue is elo-
quent enough to tell the sad story in
all its dreadful details. The use of
Alcohol is wide and whitening
scourge. 1t is a physical curse
clearing the eyes, blistering the
tongue, deranging the stomach, par
alyzing the nerves, hardening the
liver, poisoning the blood, coaguiat
ing the brain, inducing and aggravat-
ing many diseases, and digging myri-
ads Of premature graves. 1t is a f.
nancial curse: draining the pocket,
inviting poverty, diminishing COM
forts, multiplying miseries, filling
aims houses, and creating hard times.
1t is mental curse: clouding the
judgment, dethroning the reason,
promoting ignorance, producing i'm
becility, and Transforming its unhap-
Ply victims into maniacs and fools.
1t is a moral curse: weakening the
will, infaming the passions, hushing
the voice of conscience, and prepar-
ing the way for every vice and crime.
The attendant miseries of drunk
enness swarm like a locust plague.
In the Shiny trail of this alcoholic
serpent you find everything that is
dark and notwithstanding that
is regretful and ruinous. You find
men without manhood, women with
out womanhood, age without solace,
and infancy without hope. You find
want and woe, rags and wretchedness,
squalor and filth, disease and death.
\ GU find broken VOWS, broken bones,
broken fortunes. broken hopes, and
broken hearts. You find bad man
ners and bad morals; bad words and
bad actions; bad regulations and
bad characters; bad plans and bad
performances bad parents and bad
children; a bad beginning and a bad
end Surely intemperance is the
browning curse of American society.

Be Careful What You Say.

In speaking of \ persons faults,
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember, those with homes of glass
Should seldom throw a stone.
If we had nothing else to do
But talk of those who sin,
lis better we commence at home,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge man
Until he's fairly tried;
should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide.
Some may have faults-and who have not?
The old as well as young;
Perhaps we may, for aught we know,
Have fifty to their one.
Then let us all, when we commence
To SANDER friend or foe,
Think of the harm one word may do
To those who little know.
Remember, curses, sometimes, like
Our chickens, ''roost at home
Don't speak Of others faults until
We have none OF our own.

The Masters Presence.

Lo amid the press,
The whirl and hum and pressure of my day,
| hear thy garments sweep, thy seamless dress,
And close beside my work and WEAKNESS
Discern thy gracious form, not far away,
But very near, o Lord, to help and bless.
The busy fingers fly, the eyes may see
Only the glancing needle which they hold,
But all my life is blossoming inwardly,
And every breath is like litany;
While through each labor like thread of gold
Is woven the sweet consciousness of Thee!
