Both Lord BacoH and Woodward used it
as ref rring to O. house OF room artificially
warmed, ard particularly dollhouse for
plants. Bacon also used the word as a
verb in the way Of keeping warm in a house
or room, as "to stove orange trees and myr-
ties 10 quote from his writings. Pepys
used the verb in a nautical sense. as heat

that she is really more subject to them. 1t
IS true that the cares of the household.
productive as they are of much grievance
ana trouble, fall chiefly upon a woman's
shoulders; but, on the other hand, a mans
ordinary business or profession is quite as
full of small annoyances and worries,
which are every whit as irritating as those
that beset his wife
The difference, we should say, between
the two sexes lies rather ia the manner in
which they meet their troubles than in the
apportiOnment of those troubles. Wewoah
not readily dispute the theory that it is
the steady and persistent pressure of these
small worries which work a change in the
nervous system more surely than any great
and sudden trouble, just as the drop of
water hollows the stones, but we are in
clined to believe that the reason, in this
case, why one stone is followed sooner
than the other is to be found in the greater
softness Of the stone and not in the greater
frequency Of the drop.-London Spectator

The IaithfnI .hcnherd DOG.

Dr. Die Lewis was travelling in the west
and had come TO ranch whercOn was a
shepherd dog hat the owner would not
sell for $500. She had at the time four
young puppies.
While the visitor was admiring the little
mother and her babies the assistant herder
reported twenty sheep missing Two dogs
each larger than the little mother, were
standing about, but the hcrder said neither
Tom nor Dick would find the missing
sheep; Flora must go.
In vain did the assistant urge that her
feet were sore; she had been hard at work
all day and was nearly worn out and
must, in any case, attend to the wants of
her puppies. The master insisted The
sun was setting and there was no time to
lose.
Flora was called and told tohunt for the
lost sheep, her master pointing to the for
est on whose edge the shack was situated.
She raised her head, but seemed loath to
leave her babies. The master called sharp
ly to her. She rose, looked tired and
broken hearted, and with head and tail
down trotted YEARLY off toward the forest.
shell be right back. She's lightning
on stray sheep" Next morning the doctor
rode over to learn whether Flora had found
the strays. As he alighted from the sad
die the dog returned, driving the sheep.
Flora did not raise her head or wag her
tail, even when spoken to, but crawled to
her puppies and lay down by them. She
had been out all night, and, scarcely able
to notice her babies, fell asleep.
What scene, if one can but picture it,
The vast, gloomy forest, and that little
creature, with sore feet and heart yearn-

about in the wild canyon all through the
night, gathering in the lost sheep.-Ameri-

apples are sent loosely in barrels, but when
sent by water each apple is first carefully
wrapped IN soft white tissue paper and
then in stronger brown paper Then the
fruit is packed in barrels, according to

the rolling of the vessel. The barrels used
for ocean transportation are much stronger
than those in which the fruit is shipped to
domestic points. Nearly all foreign buy

In Bethlehem of Judea there il great
gladness today-just such gladness as is
felt in every great city and in every
quiet hamlet Of civilized Europe and
America.
This is for Bethlehem the one great
season of the year, for was not Christ
born in this picturesque Old World
eastern town, and will not the thoughts
Of all believers in Christ be turned
thither during the anniversary of his
birth? Being honored thus above all
other places of the earth, Bethlehem
never forgets TO do honor to the Christ
who has made her famous.
On Christians eve they will begin.
During the evening Of that day the be.
levers Of Jerusalem will gather together
and flock out of the city, with their faces
set for the famous Church of the Nativ-
ity in Bethlehem.
Down through the vallev Of Gihon,
the old boundary between Benjamin and
Judah, the people Of Jerusalem will
march. They will see, as they pass, the
tree on which the traitor Judas is said
to have hanged himself, and the well
out OF which the wise men drew water
after they mad left Herod. Within THEN
view will also be the Convent Of Elijah,
erected on the site where the prophet
rested during his flight from Jezebel.
AS they come to the end of their SIX
mile march the people of Bethlehem will
come out to meet them, and then, pre-
ceded by gayly attired wand bearing her
aids and followed by an immense throng
Of men, women and children, the bishop
robed in full vestments, will lead the
way toward the Church of the Nativity
which is the oldest monument of Chris
tian architecture in the world. There
mass will be celebrated, while armed
Turkish soldiers, wearing their full uni
form OF red fezzes, blue jackets and
baggy trousers stand on guard. New
