days. Life is less ornamental than it was,
but it is certainly more useful as n whole
Butterflies may be numerous enough, but
there are more l,Ns. What is the use of
embellishing antimacassars2 is a question
which certainly never occurred to our fair
ancestresses, but it rises naturally enough
to the heart and also to the lips of the mod

love of stitchery be in her, or subscribes to

something to do with the decline and fall
of the workbaslSet.
Twenty years ago the necessity for phys
ical exercise had not dawned upon the fe-
male intelligence. and the doctrines of by
rene were neither understood by the public
nor formulated by the faculty. The boys
of the family went out into the fresh air TO
play ball. but the girls sat in the school
room and learned to do crewel work, while
their mothers played croquet, with never Il
vision of tennis to disturb their lethargy.
Now these activities are the rule instead of
the exception, and as the days provide no
extra hours in which to take part in them
the cult of the health has superseded the
cult of the needle Modern life has no
longer time for useless stitches and few

On the Florida Coast.

Some of the most surprising things hap

man who recently lived there. II was at
breakfast one morning in my house, about
a quarter of mile back from the beach,
when | noticed Il vessel standing close in to
shore. She seemed TO be going wild, as il
nobody was steering, and was behaving in
an extraordinary way. l ran out and
shouted and waved my hat, but nobody
aboard seemed to see me, or if any one did
it made no difference, for she came on and
rammed into the sand, and stuck there
with topsails shaking. They got out the
boats then and came ashore. Although
there was only the usual surf, the captain
and mate had taken off their clothes, and
the men were completely demoralized. 1t
was bright, pleasant day, with only a
fresh breeze, and a boy could have gone
out in II small boat.
II took the crowd to my house and gave
them some hot coffee. Then they started
north and were never seen again. They were
Germans, and their bark was in good con
dtion--a strong vessel of teak, with a good
cargo on board. The cargo was saved, but
no attempt was made to save the vessel,
though | guess the crackers of the neigh
borhood got about everything that was
worth taking from her. Afterward | learned

Then when Annie's father came home
she was brought out and the dreadful
wound shown to him, and he was asked to
mend it, So he took some wax and heated
it, and put it carefully over the chin and
soon made her look as good as new Annie
jumped up and down with delight and
took dolly in her arms and told her not to
mind it, as she could not get cold through
that hole in her chin any longer.
One day Annie had a tea party for her
dolls. She had table, with pretty toy
cups and saucers, a tablecloth, napkin
rings at each plate, and chairs for the
guests, And who do you think the guests
were?
On one side of the little table was grown
up chair, on which were standing in row
wooden goat, two cats, monkey and an
old woman doll. On the next side was the
darling love Of doll' Gas Annie called
herr, with the mended chin. On the third
side was the unhappy doll who got all the
whippings, and on the fourth side was Moth

have been a beautiful place to poke in bread

Just as she was finishing the las. morscl of

chair. This new accident made her head
very weak, and it would keep turning round
and round, so that sometimes her eyes were
toward her back and she would look very

Former reverence for the beard is well

ten years and who has toured many thou

a costume which she advocates highly and
which appears to possess considerable merit

AnDie's Un1uCky Doll.

Little Annie was very good mother to
nil her dolls, hut not one of them did she
think as much of as poor, unfortunate Mar
tina, who had passed through many trials
and was sorely afflicted. She once had
beautiful black eyes and long, golden curls,
and could cry, and because she was so pretty
Annie delighted 30 take care of her. She
had a companion doll, but Annie was n
little tired of her, and when either doll had
been naughty the old doll was sure to get
whipped more than she deserved
One day Martha fell and broke a large
piece out Of her chin, and Annie's sorrow
was great. The tears ran down her cheeks,
and taking up dolly she tried to comfort
her Come TO your mother" she said,
"and will rock you to s'eep, and when you
wake up will mend your chin and make
you comfortel" So she rocked Martha in
q tiny cradle and tucked the sheet over her
face to hide the hole in her chin and put
her in the closet till afternoon.
