The situation had the effect to rouse
Julian from his lethargy, and forthwith
he set about trying to overcome the OBJ

Mrs. Roosevelt saw that something
had gone wrong 1t was plain to her
that Julian's return to her house could
have but one meaning, and she had
hoped to see Rosalie become his wife, If
she loved him She did not inquire into
the cause of the trouble which seemed
obscurely at work, thinking that it
would probably be of short duration
One morning Mr. Roosevelt invited
Julian to drive with him to certain
house, some miles in the country, where
a trivial business affair demanded his at
tention. The vehicle was an open buggy
drawn by span of fast bay horses. Mr..
Roosevelt drove,

Julian; somehow feel averse to exer-

1t would be wicked folly for us to allow
what a man did as soldier to be
weighed against him as a citizen and a

"Yours is o noble view, Mr.. Roose-
welt, said Julian. Il cordially agree
with you, but there were special cases,
like burning houses and destroying
homes
II know, know" Mr. Roosevelt
hastened to say, "but where one does
not hesitate to kill man, why ought he

higher crime than arson"

"Our southern people. believe, have

"They lost their homes, their slaves,

New Node " Washing.

The ill-efects Of soda on linen have
given rise to new method of washing,
which has been extensively adopted in
Germany, and introduced into Belgium
The operation consists in dissolviDg two
pounds of soap in about three gallons oil
water as hot as the hands can bear, and
adding to this one teaspoonful OF tnrpen
tire and three of liquid ammonia; the
mixture then must be well stirred, and
the linen stepped in it, for two or three
hours, taking care to cover up the We :
sel containing them as nearly hermetioal
ly as possible. Tie clothes are afterwarc
washed out and rinsed in the usual way.
The soap and water may be re-heated
and used second time, but in that case
balf teaspoorful of turpentlne and
tablespoonful of ofammopia mus! be added
The process is said to cause a great econ
omy of time, labor and fuel. The linen
scarcely suffers at all, as there liz little
necessity for rubbing, and its cleanliness
and color are perfect. The ammonia and
turpentine, although their detersive &C
ton is great, have no injurious effect
upon the linen; and while the former

latter disappears entirely during the dry

T'U Prevent Night Cough.

When coughing at night is particular
ly troublesome the thorough warming of
the bed previous to its being occupied
will often avert an attack. The taking
of warm drink, preferably glass of hot
milk, before retiring, or, better, after get
ting in bed, is equally as good. The OPP
portunity to warm bed is not always
possible, but it is generally very easy to
procure hot drink of some kind, no
matter where ono happens to be. One
of the incest ways to warm bed ia by
ironing The lower sheet and as much of
the uppur one as is thrown back when
the bed is opened. After this is done
quickly draw up the bed clothing aud
place the bottles of hot water or the old
fashioned warm log or bricks in between
the ironed sheets. Persons with con-
sumption aud heart disease will secure
untold comfort and many restlul nights
if they always go to warmed beds to seek
repose.-Pfouidence Journal

His Prayer Was Answered.

Here is an amusing story from Colum.
bus, Ohio. In the penitentiary at that
place there are about 1900 prisoners
serving sentences for various crimes
against the United States government.
Services are held in the penitentiary
chapel every Sunday, and just before the
regular service, it is customary to hold
prayer meeting in which the religiously
inclined convicts take part in good old
fashioned style. At this prayer meeting
on November l9, the chaplain took oeca.
sion to refer to the near approach of
Thanksgiving Day, and told his hearers
that they should let their hearts fairly
throb with emotions of gratitude to God.
Moses Allen, coored mail robber from
South Carolina, was particularly touched
by the chaplain's talk, aud arising from
his seat, he announced that he would
lead in prayer. Then, in loud tones, he
addressed the following TO the throne on
high:
"AIy beloved brethren and sisters. l
thank de Lawd for dis heah beautiful
Sabbath mornin'. You all know dat
glorious day am comm called Thanks.

The congregation of prisoners Sat
dumbluurdrd during the aolored mans
extraordinary prayer, but at the clase OF
it they gave way TO their feelings and
made tae old chape. resound with laugh
ter, in which even good Chaplain Dud-
ley heartily joined 1t required the
utmost eIur.s of the officials to restore
quietude.
The story WAS printed in the newspa-
pers, and on Thanksgiving day, sure
enough the negro had 'po-s"m aud '1aters
to his hearts content. From different
parts of Ohio and Keutucky, he received
five 'possums, aud mahy bushels of po!a'
toes. The government, as usual Oh such
occasions, furnished several thousand
pounds of turkeys end numerous other
good things, and the Thanksgiving din
ner enjoyed by the convicts was far bet
ter than many Of them had ever had be-
fore. The South Carolina negro was
accorded special honor. He presided al
g separate table from which he and the
other South Carolina negroes partook o
their 'pOssum and Eaters.
