For The Mirror,
Gems.


The first trait of a truly great man is humility.
You do the trusting, and God will do the keep
ing.
Your character is the sum total of YOUR
thoughts.
The goodness of the world around us does not
make us good.
The sweetest music that reaches heaven, is the
honest cry for help to fOrsake sin.
Never call blessing yours till some one else
has been blessed by it, through you.
There is not an angel of heaven that could
withstand the influence of bad company.
AS long as there is sin on the conscience, there
must be the sense of distance from God.
1t is the drifting icebergs, settling with any
current anywhere, that wreck the ships.
Reach up in the darkness as far as you can,
and Christ will reach down all the rest of the
way.
Brood not on insults or injuries old,
For thou art INJURIOUS too
Count not their sum till the total is told,
For thou art unknd and untrue:
And If all thy harms are forgotten, forgiven,
Now mercy with justice is met:
Oh, who would not gladly take lessons of heaven
And learn to forgive and forget.

A State Exhibit.

The Pioneer Press says: "Secretary
Hart, of the board of charities and cor
rections, is taking steps to have an ex-
hibit at the worlds fair in compliance
with request of Supt Hunt, of the
commission. The exhibit will be made
from all the charities and institutions
in the state, and it is expected that it
will be one of the best of the kind that
will be there.
The returns from the various institu-
tons of the state place Minnesota near
ly at the head of the list on the percent
age of pauperism in the state to the
population. This is due almost entirely
to the fact that many of the other and
older states have private aSylumS and
other institutions where many people
are taken care of and from which no
returns are received. Here it is differ
ent. All the insane patients are sent
to the asylum and record is kept Of
every persons applying for assistance.
Minnesota stands very high in her
care of the insane, criminals and pau
pers who find home here. Many of
the older states cannot begin to have
the complete institutions which this
state has.
The exhibit proposed by Secretary
Hart will consist of models of many of
the prominent buildings used for the
care of the inmates and samples of
their work in the different branches.

The Irvine war is about over for this

The Irvine war is about over for this
season. There has been considerable
condemnation of the Saltwater Irvine,
by some dealers, but it's being on the
market has proved of benefit to the
farmer as standard and MANILA brands
have been sold for less than they other
wise would have been had it not been
on the market as is shown by prices
where it is not sold. 1t is not a good
policy to condemn good article, which
this Irvine is, and the farmer who pays
attention to the binding of his grain
when stacking, will have a chance to
note the superiority of hemp Irvine
over sisal or MANILA in that scarcely a
band will be eaten off when the first is
used, and we have on adjoining fields,
where MANILA was used, seen the bands
so badly eaten that it was impossible to
get enough bundles to lay the outside
tier of the stack. Were all our dealers
to handle hemp Irvine it would be more
satisfactory to the cOnsumer.-Pelican

An Astonished Tramp.

a tramp stood on the platform of the
Santa Fe station at San Bernardino,
says the Pasadena Star. a passenger
train was already to leave. He gazed
about the place sorrowfully, selected a
sOft-looking brake beam, and swinging
himself into a comfortable position on
it prepared for the first stage of his
journey. "All aboard sang out the
conductor, and off went the train. 1t
passed through bustling little and big
towns, through the most charming val
leys in the world, whirled by enormous
orange groves and stretches of vineyard
by fields of strawberries and green peas,
passing homes which were palaces, 60
ing through what every one admits is
the most beautiful, the most fertile,
most pleasing region on the foOtstOOl.
The tramp lay on his brake beam en-
jOying the scene and regretting that the
love of travel obliged him to leave such
an earthly paradise. After several
hours ride the train entered quite
large town and slowed up as it APP
preached the depot. "San Bernardino,"
called the conductor. C, said the
tramp, as he climbed from under the
car and stood on the platform from
which he had started few hours be-
fore. He had taken belt line Santa
Fe train over the kite shaped track.

Tied Her Clothesline to a Train.

While the sun was trying to shine yes
terday afternoon woman came out of
a little house that stands almost under
the shadow of the Clark street viaduct,
damned up against the warehouses, the
railroad tracks, and the limpid river.
She was woman of girth, and pulled
aloud as she carried a basket of damp
washing that bumped on her knees.
Setting the basket down, she lifted
coil of rope and. looked about for mo-
ment as if selecting something to lassO.
One end of the rope she fastened to
nail in the corner of her dingy kitchen.
The other end she twisted about tele-
graph pole thirty feet away. Then she
strung the line with sOpping flannels
and few white articles that dripped
with indigo.
When the line was crowded full the
basket was not empty. There were no
more telegraph poles. The slack of the
line would not reach back to the house.
On the side track stood two freight cars
that had been there since Saturday
evening. The woman Embossed the
rope from the telegraph pole, and found
that it would reach the end of the car.
She tied it there After filling her
mouth with clothes pins, she decorated
the new section with some white shirts
and other things that waved phantom
gestures in the smoky air. This being
accomplished, she took small bucket
and went in the general direction of
KinZie street.
No sooner had she disappeared than
a freight engine came backing down
and cautiously approached the two cars.
A brakeman waved his arms and there
was bump. The festOon of domestic
wear dropped until the pillow cases
dragged in the cinders. The brakeman
waved his arms again, the cars moved,
the line lifted itself, frightened, and just
as the woman came around the corner
there was snap. The rope with its
f1uttering attachments waved like the
tail of kite as the cars rolled away.
The woman was asthmatic and gave up
the chase after hundred yards. AS
for the brakeman and engineer, they
did not know what had happened until
they took an inventory at way station.

Duluth, August 10, 1892.


MR.. HENRY WOLFER, Esq.-Dear Sir: 1t does
me good to read THE PRISON MIRROR, particu-
larly the articles written by the inmates of the
prison. The paper serves to show how much
real good God has placed in the heart of every
man. The fact that well printed paper-well
edited and remarkable for judicOuS selections
is got out in prison, shows great advance in
our methods of dealing with criminals or with
men who are often the victims of unfortunate
circumstances. The marked advance in the
right direction made by Governor Merriam in
the Introduction of the grading system is also
matter of cOngratulation. Every honest effort
made to lessen crime; to reform the fallen, to
bring back a wandering brother to a truthful
life, needs our encouragement and believe THE
MIRROR and the grading system are both strong
factors in that good work. l am
Yours sincerely,

Was later laid on me.
This thought adds anguish as toll
Up LIES steep Calvary.
To think mine own hands drove the nails!
l sang merry song.
And chose the heaviest wood had
To build it firm and strong.
If had guessed-if had dreamed
Its weight was meant for me,
should have built lighter cross
To bear up Calvary!

through the wall near the elevator on the left,
thus facilitating the quick handling of the

Prison Made Binding Irvine Complete
Success.

Prison-Made Binding Irvine Complete
Success.
A special from CrOOkstOn says Warden Wolfer
of the penitentiary, has sold a large quantity of
binding Irvine there, adding that the farmers in
that vicinity will use over $4,000 pounds of the
saltwater Irvine this season. "ThOse who have
seen it claim that it is good, if not SUPERIOR to
that which they obtained from the local dealers,
and cheaper. ''-Stil1lcdter Gazette.
The state prison Irvine used in this county dur
ing the present harvest has given the best of sat
isfactiOn. Over 10000 pounds was taken at
ROthsay and Pelican Rapids, and the farmers
were all pleased with it. They got it for cents
and the freight while other Irvine was sold for
IA cents. There will be big demand for it next
year.-.St. Paul Dispatch.
Now that harvesting is almost done it may not
be amiss to state that in the northwestern pOr-
ton of Otter Tail county over 10000 pounds of
state prison Irvine was used, one full car going to
ROthsay and another to Pelican Rapids. The
farmers who have used it praise it in the highest
manner, claiming that it not only was equal to
any in quality, but went further to the pound
AS they got prison twine for 8 cents and freight
while other Irvine sold for IA CENTS it is safe to
say that next year Otter Tail will put in still
larger Order-Er.
The Review of Reviews for September
The Review of Reviews for September is so
edited as to remind its readers that there are,
besides politics that claim share in the general
attention. In it's Thickness freshness and orig
inality this September issue of the Review is
fully equal to any of its predecessors. 1t is re-
markedly general testimony, ON the part of the
readers of this enterprising periodical, that
every succeeding number is a fresh SURPRISE and
a welcome one. The September number has for
its frOntispiece spirited full-length portrait of
the great French scientist, Camille Flammarion
standing by the side of his telescope in the OBJ
ServatOry at Juvisy; and the Progress of the
World that is, the editorial opening depart
ment of the Review-begins with the discussion
of Mars and its inhabitancy illustrated with
Chaparelli's map of the surface of Mars, and
portraits of Professor Holden, of the Lick OBJ
servatOry and Francis Gallon, chairman of the
royal observatory at Kew, London. Flamma-
riOn is not only great astronomical authority,
who makes bold predictions as to our future in
tercOurse with the inhabitants of Mars but he is
also one of the leaders in the psychical research
movement and the general study of the phenO-
mena OF mind that occupies so prominent place
in the Investigations of our day. The depart
ment of Leading Articles of the Month" in
this number of the Review of Reviews devOtes
large amount of attention to psychical research,
and contains magnificent portraits of Professor
Charles Richet, the distinguished French scien-
fist; Professor William James, OF Harvard; Pro-
fessOr Henry Sedgwick, of Cambridge England;
Mr.. Alfred r. Wallace, DIR. Richard HOdgsOn,
and Mr.. +. w. H. Myers.

EMPIRE MODES.
The Women Still in q State Of Uncertainty
Regarding Them.

The women still In q state OF Uncertainty
Regarding Them.
Dorothy Maddox. in Philadelphia Inquirer.
What are we to think of the empire
ing does not hesitate to affirm that mp to
the present time no model, among the many
employed, has received unqualified admi-
ration and acceptance. Another equally
reliable modiste is enthusiastic over the
quantity artistic effects obtainable by ty-
ing up a woman's figure under her arms.
Says she, The empire has no rival in
showing of the figure to advantage, where
there is any figure to show" l like it.
Perhaps the reason for this lies in my good
luck which has brought across my path
way some exceedingly clever models. After
all q woman must suit her GOWN to her
personality, if she would have 1t q success.
She's got to attend to details, and the
woman who doesn't propose to do this had
better not attempt the empire.
Head and feet should be en- suite. The
hair Is dressed with strict reference TO the
classical, and bound with q fillet of gold or
one of the cor0nets affected by the Empress
Josephine. The feet should be daintily
shod in nlgh-heeled empire slippers, laced
over the insteD with gold or silver cords or
ribbons. The woman with large joints and
o Hat insteD Is denied the luxury of a beau
tiful shoe, or, at least. the luxury of dis
playing il. but she can drop her empire un-
I'll oniy the very narrow point of the elab-
crate fo0t-c0vering shows. and she is ell
right.
One odd little waist within which has
come in with the empire is shown in q
model where the lining of the bodice 10
fitted to perfection, and over this falls O
drape through which can plainly be seen
the shimmer of silk OF the CLEAN of satin.
This gauzy front, which floats and sways
with every motion of the figure, is q sight
by no means beautiful unless the bust is
girlish, the hips we'll carved down md the
waist shaped like an h~our-glass.
Crossed effects upon the upper part of
the oorsage; side falls OF crepe and tuIle;
sleeves that stand out until they look as if
stuffed with swans down, as in the days of
our Observation-Disclosures; simple bands,
downy and soft, that fasten over the
dainty white shoulders with never q thing
save this as o sleeve: gIrdles of ribbons
and girdles of gold, the network as fine as
meshes of rare old lace; these and o dozen
more are coaxed into use. One and all
they help the empire on to fame and
fortune, and / should not be surprised If
we women soon smiled with hearty appro-
baton upon the individual who insists
that we shall dress as if we were over
grCwn babies.
