FURNISHING A HALL.
Suggestions 81 to Tasteful and Convcnier
&rranrement.

Suggestions 81 to Tasteful End Convenient
Arrangement.
Lay large rug in the center, and at
the foot of the stairs long narrow
one. Place another long rug before the
fireplace If the fireplace is for wood,
have brass or wrought-iron andirons;
have poker, tongs and shovel to match.
Hang a pair of bellows and small,
bright hearth-brush on each side Of the
fireplace If you have a closet in which
to hang coats, wraps, etc, you will not
require hall stand. If you must have
one get one with q broad seat and long
mirror; in the seat may be kept rub
bers and various small things. If there
is closet place q long, broad mirror
over the mantcl and do not use Il
hall stand. Have ii table near the
hall door, on which can be placed
hats, etc, If your vestibule is large
enough hall stand may be placed
there. In one part Of the room have q
broad, comforta BILE sofa or u couch,
with plenty of pillows. Near this set
a low, strong table, on which keep q
lamp Place several comfortable rat
tan and wooden chairs about the hall.
If you can afford it put a tall clock on
the first landing of the stairs. If this
is out of the question have clock of
good size on the hall mantel. Have
hair cushions made to fit the seat on
the second landing on the stairs. #
there is no clock for the first landing
place handsome chair or low, broad
cushioned seat there. DO not cover
the stained glass widow. Drape the
clear glass windows with soft lace or
China silk, and for long draperies use
plain velours or chenille. ladies

Life.
Inere Is much interest in the re;..
ZION OF capital to labor, and in the cues.
lions it involves 1t is often true tha,
men fail to attain the comforts and
.iuxuries OF life because Of poor man.
::agenlent and not simply because thew
are downtrodden by capital
have in mind two brothers. One is
professional man with an income Of
SIX hundred dollars year. The other
is mechanic, aud his income is larger.
Ihe hrst married with no capital, but
with determination to live within his
income, be content with simple food
end simple ways. His wife made q
study OF household economy, and, like
himself, desired to lie free from debt
even though she must wear calico
while others wore silk There were
three children within six years. At
the end of that time their rented house
OF nine rooms was prettily and taste
fully furnished throughout They
were both healthy. with hearty,
romping children; the husbands
LIE was insured, and their home
was cheerful with good books
and pictures, as we'll as with the sun
shine which comes with healthy lives
land good consciences. They were free
from debt, and We're able to dress neat
ly and in good taste
The other brother married. he
wished to live as we'll as his neigh
bors. and his wife wiched the same
They bought handsome furniture with
which to set up housekeeping, and
paid for it, or tried to, in installments.
The wife strove beyond her strength
in order to dress like her associates,
and to keep her two children in dainty
apparel. She bought food of the baker
that she might have more time to sew,
and the family meals were Of rich. un-
wholesome food owing partly to igno-
rance and as much to carelessness- The
husband reasoned that with his small
wages and large expenses he could
never lay up money and must ''enjoy
life as he went along" When he
wanted good dinner Or an expensive
cigar ne bought it. Each tried to
spend ali they could and felt sore1y to-
ward those who could spend all they
wished.
AT the end of six years the wife had
sewed herself into the grave, and the
husband was left with two sicllly chill
.dren, hundreds of dollars in debt, and
fathoms deep in melancholy of mind
and soul.
The trouble is we are not content to
hive simply, if need te; we are not in
telligent enough. through our own neg
ligence. to live wisely as we ought to
live. We try to put q six thousand
dollar career into q six hundred dollar
salary, all of which is vanity, and worse
than vanity.
At the same time there may be those
who have lived as wisely as possible,
and yet suffer. 1t is truly an honor to
be singled out, like Job, to suffer not
for our sin but for Gods glory. being
sure, however, that il is not sin, igno-
rant or otherwise, that keeps us down.
If we have wealth it is our privilege
to put added touches of brightness into
the lives of those who are seeking to
shape honest careers with small in
comes-though our wave-tossed brother
may reach land without our help should
we refuse to aid him.-Union Signal.

MOUNTAIN CLIMBING.
A Calling for Which Men Mast BE Especial
ly Trained.

A Calling for Which Men Mast BE Especial
ly Trained.
All crafts depends upon knowledge
and acquired sjsill-Knowledge of the
material to be handled, acquired skill
in the handling of the material. Pion-
GERS of mountaineering had first to
learn what mountains actually are
like, the details of their struc-
ture, and the forces in action upon
them. Rock structure, which has one
meaning for geologist, has others for
mountaineer. One kind Of mountain
masonry forms ridges and gullics,
another forms lodges and precipices;
one texture and dip makes staircases
that can be rushed, another makes slabs
that can scarcely be adhered to; one
kind Of substance is firm and trust
worth, another is friab!e and treach-
erous to hand and foot If there was
SO much to be learned about rocks,
snow and ice were at first far more I'M
known.
The anatomy of glaciers had to be
discovered, the secrets of crevasse
formation to be learned. There were
the various phenomena implied in the
phrase, estate of the snow, to be under
stood. Both foot and eye had to be
trained to recognize by feel and glance
what the estate Of the snow at
any time might be. Avalanches
had to be Observation-Disclosures
of snow, ice, and rocl-when
they might be expected to fall where
they were to be looked for, how far
thev would GO. Climbers had to learn
to distinguish afar Off between snow
end ice slopes. Moreover, the tools of
mountaineering had to be invented.
Many were tried and discarded; few
were retained and improved. The form
of the ak was slowly evolved and its
uses learned The way to employ the
rope was yet more difficult discovery.
Even now the proper form for climbing
irons is only being arrived at
Accidents, usually fatal, were the
lessons wherefrom these facts were de-
rived The great Matterhorn accident
finally demonstrated how the rope
should be used, and proved that large
parties were a source of danger. The
Lyskamm accident showed the peril of
cornices. Unroped climbers mot their
death on many mountains. From al
most every accident something was
learned The safety of the many has
been bought by the death of the few.
We can now plunge into the world
of snow without undue peril. We
know its dangers and can guard against
them; we know also when we are safe
and can freely go Our foreranners
went aloft as ueoiithic navigators put
20 sea--badly equipped and into mis-
understood region. We are now
ON the footing OF the modern
sailor; snow, as such, has no
more terrors for us than sea for them.
Ill luck may oyertake us and we may
fall. as they may by drowned, but with
good equipment and experience the
climber and the seafarer are about as
safe as the townsman at home. Fort

Bobbie-Pop had a great time while
you were away.
Mrs. Bingo-He did? What did he doi
Bobbie-Well, he came home early the
day after you left, and then lot of things
came from the store.
Mrs. Bingy-Were there any bottles?
Bobbie- Y on just wait. About o. o'clock
four men came in. Then pop cleared of
the library table, brought out some cards
and some red, white and blue things,
and they began to play. There was a
side table with some bottles on it, and
about 10 o'clock they had dandy lunch.
Mrs. Bingo-They did. did they? Well,
Bobbie, how did you find this out? You
ought to have been in bed.
Bobbie- es, IN; they thought 1 was,
but l was outside the door all the time
until the lunch came in. and then / just
couldn't stand it.
Mrs. Bingo-And did you know what
those dreadful men were playing?
Bobbie-Of course. Poker
Mrs. Bingo cher eyes gleaming)-That
will do, Bobbie. But how is it you have
told me this? Usually when anything
your papa has done before comes to me,
it has not been through you.
