 Kneeling upon the tufted floor of the front parlor, she held her clasped hands aloft.
 What have done, she moaned, 'that I should be thus cursed?'
 Then she went on to relate amid sobs how many young and eligible men had come to call on her, how they had uni formly shown symptoms of an acquaint- ance ripening into love, how they had suddenly become cold and left with a few perfunctory words of farewell.

A remnant weak. his people take The crumbs that from her table fall; The past is theirs, the future hers Who crowds them harshly to the wall Proudly she sits upon her hills, Her various waters gleaming round; Her snowy crested mountains fair, Soft mirrored in their blue profound. But one, the top and crown of all, High soaring far above the rest, Hid in impenetrable clouds
 His towering head, his ample breast. But, oh, at length a morning dawued. One more divine earth never knew, When better far than tale or dream The mountain clove the heavenly blue. The mountainl All the snowy peaks Which mountains seemed the day before, That day were little hills, SO high We saw the highest climb and soar. So high! So grand! And yet with an So sweetly, delicately fair. We had believed if one had said, "A dream, e phantom of the air" And as the perfect day went by
 Moro dreamlike still tho mountain grew, As gathering mists, a purple zone, Around his base their vesture drew All white and pure from crown 10 foot There hoated in the azure deep A hill of heaven, a mount of God.
 It made our hearts with ClRdncss leap. The things of sense are types of soul. How oft for many days the best Is thick involved in clouds that chill Mans heart within his lonely breastl And then there comes a day of days. And floating bright in heavenly air He sees the mount of God. all white With fields of faith and founts of prayer. And by that glorious vision blest
 He knows the peace that passeth thought. God folds him to his heart. His good Is better than the best he sought

Cut up rich peaches in slices with the peel. It is not necessary to have large peaches. Cheap ones that are well fla vored and ripe will do for the purpose. Cover them scantily with water and boil them until the water is thoroughly i'm pregnated with their flavor. Then strain the liquid off. add about pound of sug- ar to every pounds of fruit used and let the mixture boil n few minutes longer. Add as much brandy as there is sirup and bottle the liquid.

 The better class of brass bedsteads are heavily lacquered to prevent the metal from furnishing, and it is only necessary to keep them free from dust and damp to preserve their luster. The specimen shown in the cut was originally photo graphed for The Decorator and Furnish CT, and is on exhibition at the Columbian exposition as one of the most ambitious designs in brass beds ever manufactured.
 Metallic bedsteads, fortunately for the great majority, are not all such high priced affairs as this, but are made in many grades, qualities, patterns and prices, hence suited to the tastes and purses of most buyers.
