Not long ago a bright, pretty,
healthy girl said: '.She is always sick,
and it tries everybody So I looked
at her and thought, Il wonder if you
knew what yon were saying, if you
would eyer repeat those words. 1t
may be taken for granted that to have
somebody always sick in a household
Is not pleasant; that it does cast a
gloom over it. and that it does make
the younger members of the family
feel that there is a constraint put upon
them. But put yourself in the place
OF the woman who is always sick
Put yourself in the place Of the woman
who never knows from one day to an
other whether she is going to be happy
in God Almighty's sunshine, or
weather She is going to be in close,
dark room, with her heart beating as

told her how little Of life she had, and
how soon it would go. Think of walk
ing up in the middle OF the night with
your head burning and throbbing, and
your body perfectly cold, and having
TO lie quite still with the knowledge
that there VIII be nohelp for you until
morning. Think OF knowing that
everybody else is having good and
merry time, but thai you are entirely
out Of it all not because you are i'll
that day, but because the doctor
thinks you are not quite well enough
to risk it. Now this is wretched
enough when it comes to 4 woman -who
has had most of the pleasures of life,
but suppose It comes TO a girl of 10
Don't you suppose that because of her
very illness her nerves are so much
more delicate that every pleasure that
she does not get seems greater than 1t
really is, while every sorrow that
comes 10 her is intensified.

laughed at for eating too fast, and we

lrt-yOu will dine, not merely feed
yourself But there are n few little
questions about the etiquette of the
table that some girl wants TO know,
and these l am going to tell her. She
must hold her knife by its handle, and
never let her fingers reach up
TO its blade. Whenever it is
possible, a fork must be used in
place of spoon, and that same spoon,
by the by. must never be left IN a
coffee or tea cup, but laid to rest po-
litely and securely in the saucer.
Glasses with handles are held by them.

celery, rad;shes, Strawberries with
stems, and asparagus are all eaten

eating cheese with. knife has been
given up, fork being used in its
place The use Of many small dishes
for vegetables is not in good taste; in
deed, many vegetables should not be
served at one time.

To meet her cavalier.

For whom the counties sue,
And he's the grandson OF a churl,
And wears a Bonnet Blue.
Oh sTEeeter is the whispered VOW
For what might come between
No hkelier youth than he, I trow,
Was e'er in greenwood seen.
Nogrlce than hers IS more divine,
No heart more fond and true;
She lets the lordly suitors pine
To pledge a Bonnet Blue. z
She thinks upon her lofty state
And drops pensive tear;
She looks upon her lowly mate,
And she Is straight IN cheer
He holds her in his strong embrace,
He plights his troth anew;
She breads not danger nor disgrace.

Next morn the bower maidens wait
In vain their MISTRESS call;
The servers stand with cup and plate,
The vassals fhrong the hall
But where is she, the proudest born,
The fairest Scotland knew?

Her dear loved Bonnet Blue.

Gov. Flower has signed the bill which
permits married women to make cor
tracts in their own names as freely as
men may do.
Thus disappears from the statute
book of New York the last trace of a
Middle-Age barbarism. The laws on
this subject originated in the theory
once everywhere accepted that the wife
was a ehattel, the property of the hus-
band. Long after that theory disap-
peared the law still maintained many
of the disabilities of married women
which could be justified only by the
abandoned conception. The law is
always slow to recognize changes in
society and civilization, and it has been
peculiarly slow and conservative in
this.
But our generation has been very
restless under these anaehronisms of
the law. One after another of the dis
abilities of married women have been
removed, until now the last of them is
blotted out in New York, as it was
long ago in some of the younger States
Mississippi being a leader-and our
law now fully recognizes the married
woman as an individual with Will, a
capacity and natural rights of her own.

Mrs. InGersoH and the Bergh Society.
Mrs. Robert e. Ingerson IS one of
the most enthusiastic members of the
Henry Bergh society A few weeks
ago she was stepping out of her New
York residence to her carriage, when
she saw a poor specimen of horse
dragging an immense carload of
flowers up Fifth avenue, urged on by
the butt end OF a whip in the hands of
the burly driver. Mrs Ingersol walked
out into the street, caught the bride
and turned the horse into the sidewalk,
greatly lingering the man. Finding
she had not her authority papers with
her. she returned into the house and
procured them. Catching up to the
jaded nag as it reached the top of the
hill, Mrs. Ingersoll again turned the
horse to the sidewalk, oblivious to
the curses of the man; and as soon as
policeman came along she had the poor
beast, cart and man taken to the near
est police station, and saw him locked
up Before returning 10 her carriage
Mrs. Ingersoll bought four quarts of
oats for the starving horse.

The Order of the Golden Rose, with
which the pope has decorated Queen
Amelie of Portugal for. her good deeds,
has been bestowed on one or more of
the female members of nearly all the
catholic reigning houses. Among those
now living who have been thus hon
ored by his holiness are ex-Queen Isa-
bella of Spain, who received the rose
only few weeks prior to the loss Of
her throne; the present queen-regent
of Spain; the empress OF Austria; the
queen mother of Bavaria; the ex-Em-
press Eugene OF France; the empress of
Brazil and the queen of Saxony. Queen
Pla of Portugal and Princess Clothilde,
the wife of Prince Napoleon, would
doubtless both have received the rose
as reward for their piety and devo-
tion to the church had it not been for
the fact that they labored under the
disadvantage of being the daughters Of
the late King Victor Emmanuel of
Italy, who was communicated.
Among the less well-lnown wearers
of the golden rose are the Princess
George of Saxony, wife of the heir-ap-
parent to the throne and a member of
the royal house of Braganza: the
Duchess Adelgonde of Modena: Arch
duchess Elizabeth of Austria and the
Princess Blanche Of Nemours. Queen
Mercedes of Spain was also a possessor
of the rose.

finds a certain pleasure in telling you
of her worries and woes, listen TO them
with patience, while at the same time
you do your best to change the subject
to one which is proper, and which will
be really better for her. If you live in
che same house with an invalid, learn
that every time you slam a door it
makes each nerve in her body
culver. Every time you speak
loudly it causes her mental teeth to
be set on edge, and every time You
laugh in your loud, startling way, you
make her sufferings as much greater
as if she had really undergone some
thing in the way of blows. Take some
of the sunshine of your life and give it
to the one who is always sick. Do not
allow yourself to believe that anybody
finds pleasure in it, or that anybody is
in bed, or claiming to be in pain-as I
have heard cruel or thoughtless people
say-from 'mere laziness. Now, if in
your life in any way there comesa
chronic invalid, want you, like the
good girl you are, to practice on her
the virtue of patience, and be sure
blessings will come TO you.
