How Italian Bandits Capture Brides

It is said that the captain Of an Italian
robber band, who desires wife does his
courting after this style: Casting his
evil eye on some fair village maiden, he
descends upon the occasion OF dance on
the greer, and mingling with the dan
GERS, manages to dance with the fair one
himself. Then he charms her with his
grace and the beauty of his dancing,
whispers love messages in her terrified
ears-for she we'll knows with whom she
is dancing-and circling ever nearer and
nearer to the outer edge of the company,
he suddenly gives whistle, and his men
appear in a moment and dash of with
the prize, the leader covering their re.
treat with a fusillade of fire arms, which
the villagers dare not return, being too
much cowed by the bandits daring.
Honorable marriage by a captured
priest who is held in readiness is offered
to the girl, who dare not refuse to become
the brigand's bride, knowing she can
never return to her home below the
mountains. 1t is said these marriages
are exceptionally happy, and that the
men love their abducted prizes with con-
slant affection, and the villages from
which they are stolen are forever after
safe from fire and rapine at the hands of
the band.-Chicago Herald.

UNSELFISH WORK.

Work of some sort Is made necessary to us
by the law Of God, by the demands OF our
own natures and by our r,relation to others.
The kind of work we shall do and the man
ner Of doing it, are with US matters OF choice.
Ordinarily we choose the most agreeable
work, or that which ut least conduces best to
our own selfish interests, and we feel often
pleased as VIC l1ogresss. but discover our
selves unsatis6ed at the completion OF our
cherished schemes.
We venture to suggest that there is more
excellent way, and that If 1t be followed we
shall find pleasure not only In the progress
of our work, but also satisfaction in its con-
summation. The path we propose to tread
is that of unselfishness and sef-denial.
Tie greatest victories ever won are those
over SELF and the purest happiness ever Sc
cured comes through unseltsh devotion to
the interest of others. We have begun to
discover that the very best reason for the
performance OF any duty Is the fact that we
do not want to do it. Pride sometimes
whispers protest, and self-ove puts in Its
strong plea, but duty makes its stern de.
mand and will not tolerate dallying with
temptation, since it puts conscience vigor-
ously 10 work, and If we intend to De true
at al. we must follow the dictates OF an en-
lighlcned conscience and 60 with alacrity
wherever it leads. We say with alacrity,
because mere sullen submission and only
mechanical obedience, not only fail to give
US the joy of service, but prevent the results
being as valuable to God and man.
The question Of motive should be carefully
examined. Sometimes it may be foui:d that
the good we are doing, is being done from
selfish motives altogether. We may take
great pleasure In being considered liberal, or,
alas may find out that our public piety is to
be seen of men and further scrutiny may
be shown us TO lie 80 near akin to hypocrite
that we may well be alarmed, and ask God
to pardon and guide Us Alright. If our
motives he pure it will soon be discovered
that We are thinking only of duty for its own.
dear sake, and that self does not even raise
its voice. The joy we can bring into other
lives is quickly reflected back on our own,
and we may yet learn the lesson the Master
teaches US. who for ''the joy that was set he
fore him endured the cross, despising the
shame and is set down Mt the right hand of
the throne of God.'-[Selected.

THE NEW SOIL.

1t cannot fail to strike you, in reading
missionary annals, that the true converts
from heathenism often present higher
form of Christianity than the average men,
Der of our old established churches.
They are deficient in knowledge, perhaps,
but in their simple faith in the gospel, their
childlike trust in God, their absolute resig-
ton to hisiwill, their realization Of JOYS to
come, they are nearer to the standard Of
apostolic Christianity than some of US.
Now lay alongside of this the fear that
sometimes oppresses US, lest, in the midst Of
passion and prejudice, of worldliness and
sefshness. Of ritualism and superstition, OF
denominational fierceness, of atheism and
liberalism, the pure faith of the church
should be damaged. And what suggests it.
self. Why that these plants springlng up
on fresh soil, these heather Christians, may
be conservers of the truth for US, and may
give back to us the gospel we are now send
ing to them! Then let US speed the messen-
gers who are to carry the glad tidings to the
nations still sitting in darkness and in the
region of the shadow of DEATH American
Messenger.

TEACH OBEDIENCE.

The Secretary Of the Prison Association
which interests itself especially In the refor-
nation of the convict and restoration Of the
discharged prisoner to decent position in
society-has given it as his opinion, the re-
suit Of years Of study, that the greater pro.
portion of crime is due to the failure OF
parents to teach their children to obey.
That spirit Of lawlesssness. that rebellion
against authority and contempt for the
majesty of the law to which, in fact, nearly
Ill crime may be ultimately traced, are,
IS is evident. entirely opposed to a
spirit of obedience; and 1t requires
little serious reflection to make evident that
;he boy, the girl to whom obedience to par.
snts has become second nature Is not likely
TO become a prey, In mature years. to the
spirit of lawlessness. And the converse rea.
soning makes plain that those who have not
been trained to obedience in childhood, to
the subordination Of their own will to par.
entail authority, are peculiarly open to the
attacks of this spirit. However intelligent,
however cultivated they may be, it needs
only temptation or o provocation which
appeals to them for them to fall prey.
This thought may serve to throw some
light upon the puzzle presented by the fact
that the spread of education does not seem
to diminish crime. 1t Is evident that great
er intelligence, without corresponding In.
crease Of ofself-control and the power of self.
denial, only affords increased opportunity
I for the breaking Of law and for sins against
society. Without falling into the error Of
those who say. "the former times were bet.
ter than these" it is impossible not to see
that there was never time, III our civiliza-
tion at least, when parental control was 80
slight, when the reins of family discipline
were so loosely held and the independence
of the child began ut so early an age.
There is much that Is beautiful, much
that Is desirable, in the changed relations be-
tween parent and child in the present day
as COM pared with hundred or even fifty
years ago; there is everything in favor of the
loving familiarity OF today over the stern dis.
tance and cold formality of the former time.
But there is no reason why loving familiarity
should not exist in connection with the
strictest obedience. In these days of ram.
pant lawlessness the study Of the parent
should be to find the way TO cultivate both
,Ltues.-[American Messenger.

The Felt Industry.

Great improvements have been made
of late years in the felting industry.
Felt is composed of wool, fur or hair,
Of which the fibres are so entangled and
interlaced that they cannot readily be
separated, and this is done without spin
ming or weaving. Its use for caps,
hosiery, floor cloth, cloaks and tents has
long been known in the East by the
nomads of the desert. At present it is
largely made from waste wool, which is
first deprived of its oil, then carded and
placed in a machine. Here it is kept
wet with hot water and subjected to a
process of beating by which the fbres
are made to move upon each other until
the interlocking of their parts and the
curling of the fibre itself unite the whole
into compact sheet of felt. The "full-
ing" of cloth is but partial felting OF
wool already woven. This felted wool
is used for carpets, carpet covers, coarse
hats, carriage Innings, pads in saddlery,
shoulder pads for mems clothing, slip
pers and shoes and even for cloaks and
other garments. The cheapest woolen
rags and other articles are worked into
felt for covering steam boilers, although
felt is being gradually superseded for
that purpose by asbestos. Roofing felt
is a coarse kind, usually coated and filled
with coal tar, and sometimes with tar
and powdered slate. Felt stiffened
with dextrine is used for making sur
geous' spliuts. By far the most import.
ant use to which felt is put is that of
making hats. Technically felt hats are
of three kinds, "plain SOFT" "plain
hard" and snapped" or "ruffled." The
quality of felt hats has a wide range,
and in the finer and more expensive
qualities the entire body is composed of
fur. For commoner qualities mixture
of fur and Saxony wool is used, and for
the lowest kinds wool alone is employed.
The fur used by hatters consists princi-
pally of the hair of rabbits technically
called coneys) and hares, with some pro-
portion of nutria, musquash and beaver
hair, and generally any parings and cut
tings that can be obtained from furriers.
Furs intended for felting are deprived of
their long, coarse hairs, after which they
are treated with solution of nitrate of
mercury, an operation called carroting
or ''secretage," which greatly increases
the felting properties of the fur. The
fur is then cut by hand or machine from
the skin, and in this state it is delivered
to the hatmaker. Rabbit fur for hat
making now comes in large quantities
from Australia, and it is also largely
collected in the United Kingdom and in
Northern Europe. A considerable
amount of rabbit fur is exported from
Great Britain to the United States.

big advantage.
"There is also much less spoke vlbra-
ton in the new sulky than there was
in the old. Should you ride behind
trotter in steel tired sulky you would
at once notice jurring caused by the
wind whistling through the spokes.
But in the pneumatic the friction be-
tween the wheel and the track surface
is greatly modified by the soft rubber
tire, and there is little vibration among
the spokes. This applies to both the
turns and the straigbtaways, but to the
latter particularly. The vibration in the
old sulky was a reason for not making it
lighter. It made light sulky likely to
suddenly weaken, and it also mildly
martyred some drivers who developed
kidney trouble from riding on the old
school bone shakers. Only two years
ago Orrin Hickok, one of the very best
drivers of his time, was obliged to 60 to

ouence of kidney affection.
