A Soul Above Buttons.

"In the future there are two or three
women who are going to rise up and call
me blessed" remarked the mother of
three boys.
1.-TWO or three special ones, do you
mean 2"
"Yes, indeed, I mean just that. have
no ambition to be a benefactor to the
general public. And don't know, by
the way, that I have any special kindly
feeling to the two or three women ]
spoke of. It isn't for the sake of my af-
fection toward them Pm earning their
blessing now"
"Well, for gracious goodness how are
you earning it?"
"Why, I'm training my three sons to
sew on their own buttons! They are be-
ginning to do it of their own accord
They don't follow me about the house
now, with coat in one hand and but
ton in the other. They 90 and set a nee.
die and thread and sew the button on,
They've found out it saves times and
strength and words"
"It seems cruel to make boys sew on
their own buttons"
"Cruel? It's kind Those boys uon't
always have me to sew on buttons fol
them. They would be badly of, indeed
if they had to do it some time, and didn't
know how. It's right they should learn
to do such thinga for themselves. a boy
should be taught to make his own bed

and dust his room occasionally, and no!

people profess to think that such knowl-
edge comes by nature; but believe it's

it has to be bought of bitter experience

priced teacher to employ"
"Then it's for the boys own sake,
after all, and not for the sake of their
future wives, that you let them sew on
their own buttons ?"
"Why, of course! But sometimes I do
think how deliciously some girl will be
surprised. When one of those boys finds
button off his shirt, he won't stand and
declare there hasn't been one on in that
place for at least six months. he will

Fruit as Medicine.

A noted medical authority of Phila-
delphia gives the following tests of the
medical action of various fruits. He
says, however, that no edible fruit has a
strict medicinal effect but operates by
assisting the natural tendencies of the
system. Under the category Of laxatives,
oranges, figs, tamarinds, prunes, mulber-
ries, dates, nectarines and plumbs may
be included pomegranates, Gran berries,
blackberries, sumsch berries, dewberries,
raspberries, ounces, pears, wild cherries
and medlars are astripgent; grapes,
peaches, Strawberries, whortleberries,
prickly pears, black currents and melon
seeds are diuretics; gooseberries, red and
white currants, pumpkins and melons,
are refrigerants, and lemons, lines and
apples are refrigerants and stomachic se-
datives.
Taken in the early morning an orange
acts very decidedly ss laxative, some.
times amounting to purgative, and may
generally be relied on. Pomegranates
are very restringent and relieve relaxed
throat and uvulas. The bark OF the root

The Silence of the Plains.

We speak Of darkness which can be
felt. Similarly We may speak of silence
which can be heard, and this is another
impressive element of an experience of
the plains. On the sea, except in calm,
and in the forest and among the places of
human habitation, there is always sound,
even at night; but on the treeless plains,
in the midst of normal activity, there is
silence as of the grave. Even a hurri-
cane is comparatively inaudible, for
there are no waters to dash, no forests to
roar, no surfaces to resound, while the
short grasses give forth no perceptible
rustic; and there is something awful in
the titanic rush of contending natural
forces which you can feel, but can not
see or hear. The wind may sweep away
your breath on current of sixty miles
an hour, and the clouds may rush
through the sky as in tornado, but no
sounds confound the ear. A winter biz
zard, which carries on It's frigid breath
destruction to life, which blinds the eyes,
and which drives the particles of ice and
snow with cutting force against the fro
zen cheek and through all but the heay'
lest fur clothing, is comparatively maud.
ible, and the traveller appears to himself
to struggle vainly with an implacable,
ghostly force which fills the whole crea-
tion. When, also, nature is undisturbed
in tranquil summer mood, and the sky is
blue and fecked with heecy clouds float
ing far aloft, all sound seems to have
died out of the world, and mantle Of
silence enfolds everything. Partaking of
the predominant natural sentiment, man
becomes silent also; he ceases to talk to
his mates and becomes moody and taci-
turn. The merry song of the voyager,
re.echoipg between wooded shores, the
shout, the joke of the cheerful traveller
here are stilled-stiaed you might almost
say-by the immessurable muffle of ST
lence. Here are no woods to give back
the answering shout, and the crack of the
rifle is insignificant. The cry of the
passing wild fowl in the darkness, as you
lie awake in your tent at mid night,
comes to you with weird, faint, far
away sound as if heard in dream, and
even the rare thunder breaks impotently
on the continent of silence. If a COM
rade is lost, and you wish to make some
sign to direct him to the camp, no noise
