The Feminine Knee.

Rubber Foot Fever.

If a man has a corn it can be removed,
but if he is suffering from rubber foot
fever no chiropodist can help him, and the
only thing to prescribe is liberal bathing
of the feet and removal of the cause. Rub
bers should only be worn to keep wet out,
and they should be removed the moment
the wearer gets indoors. Failure to note
this gives man wet feet in far worse
sense than if he had waded through mud
ankle deep.
1t was the trouble resulting from fore
ing the perspiration to soak the stockings
and keep the feet perpetually damp that
drove rubber soled boots out Of the mar
ket. Even loose rubbers are source OF
danger, and the cause of many more seri-
Gus colds than they avert.-India Rubber

England's Peerage.

"Our Old Nobility" as most people

At least half of the hereditary peer

sixty years, and not one-fourth were In

consists, for the most part, of clever law

How to ue1p a Minister to Preach.

It is astonishing how dull religious audi
ences, as a rule, look. In lecturing halls
you see people with eyes wide open
nudging each other and nodding TO the
sentiments offered. In prayer meetings the
same people look dull; they cultivate the
dull look; they have an idea that to br
devotional they must look sleepy A
brother gets up TO talk, and father in
Israel puts his head down on cane, and a
mother in Israel her head on the back Of
the seat in front of her. and another looks
up to the ceiling and seems to be counting
the cracks in it. Now when your minis
ter gets up to preach look at him. There
is inspiration in the human eye. Many a
time l have, through pressure of other
work, gone into the pulpit with little to
say, but in the upturned faces of the peo-
pie l have seen twenty sermons, and the
only bother was to know which / should
preach.-Dr. Talmage in Ladies' Home

FAIRY TALES.

The time like for fairy tales
Is when the day begins to die,
Just as the brilliant sunset pales,
And twilight shadows gather nigh.
When can lie before the fire
That blazes with a ruddy light,
And hear the tales that never tire,
OF imp and fairy, gnome aid sprita.
And sometimes as the shadows fall
Across the floor from every side,
A goblin dances on the wall.
And gnomes within the corners hide.
Then as the freight blazes high
We see the shadows run away,
And silently again draw nigh,
Like spirits of the wood at play.
And when the embers family glow,
Upon the smoke I see ascend
The little folk love to know,
Who vanish at the story's end.

Reading Aloud.

As 8 source Of pleasure few employments
equal that Of reading with some congenial
companion. When she lends "the beauty of
her voice" to high poetic thoughts or to the
instructive volume, or with gay accents brings
out the flavor Of the humorous and quaint
cSnceits Of others, how intensely we enjoy,
how thoroughly we appreciated With little
pauses for criticism and exchange of opinion,
we go on page after page, bringing fresh pleas
ure 20 our literary tete-a. tete. And ever after
the story or poem has for us an added charm.
Years may elapse, yet when we see again the
book our memories recall the scene of its first
perusal the vine shaded piazza, with the
SurImer sounds aud scents; or the snowy day,
when "tumultuous privacy of storm " in
closed US as in q sanctuary; or the long Winter
evening when the lamps glowing radiance
and the bright fire enhanced our comfort, and
mind and body were equally soothed and
delighted.
Some women neither know nor care for this
delightful pastime. They fancy that special
training by a teacher Of elocution is essential
to fit them for the proper rendering of the
thoughts of others, and that il is not worth
while to attempt TO gain the accomplishment,
as they have no special aptness for it, ignoring
the fact that reading aloud is one of the talents
to be secured by judiciOus investment of the
great talent of time. Clear and distinct enun-
citation, well-trained eye, and ready compre-
hensiOn of the authors meaning are essentials
easily acquired, aud the practice Of this de-
lightful accomplishment gives so much pleas
ure that it is recommended as an important
contributor to that happiness which every low
ing heart would fain bring into the lives of
others. To read to the dear ones who are weak
and ILL., to the sufferers in hospitals, and to aid
those whose eyes are failing as the long shad-
oWs of life's afternoon cloud their brightness
these are blessings which we can easily be-
stow, and by which we are ourselves enriched.

EDITOR NATIoSAL TRIBUNE: Last Fall tho
New York Herald offered prize Of 500 for the
one that would guess the nearest 70 the ma

New York State. A man by the name Of Mi

Herald Of Dec. 6, there was about two columns
giving full history Of the guesses, etc, iuclud-

Among other things the Herald said was that
Michael Moss served wild credit during the
