HAPPY HOMES.

WHY are there so few homes where there 1s
complete harmony and constant sunsmne4
why is it so rare thing to find families
where hearts are at rest, brows unclouded,
and tongues oiled with gentleness and JOY as
the merry months glide by? Why has the
lamp Of love gone out on so many family al
tars? Why has the reality Of welded lie
fallen so far below what was expected and
pictured? How has it come about that so
fnany married people are in what is not TOO
harshly designated as chrome state OF dis
satisfaction with each other2
selfshness and thoughtlessness are the TWO
words that destroy the beauty and vitality OF
the house-tree. Perhaps more than anything
else it is Just lack Of thought and consider
ateness, lack of little courtesies and manifes-
tations OF affection. Happiness is mosaic
made up Of little stones. Trifes constitute 1t
and trifes can destroy it. Thedelieate p ant
of household harmony and love can be broken
by much smaller matters than blows ana
oaths. It is not enough that the hus-
band is o good proyider and furnishes
the family enough of the necessitiesof
physical life It is not enough that the wife
is reasonably economical and indefatlg-
able in toll. Much more than this on both
sides is needed. Love seeks ever to express
itself, and longs for similar return OF ex-
preston. This is perfectly understood and
acted upon in the days Of courtship. why
should it not be in the days that follow? ls
it not Of quite as much importance to retain
as to obtain? Should there not be an increase
rather than O diminution Of attention and
care after those solemn VOWS are said Wnlcn
never can be unsaid, but are too often for
e1tten?-Rev. James Nudge in lions Her

Turn Of the Immigration Tide.

Representative McGann, Chairman OF the
Labor Committee Of the House OF Repre-
eentatiyes, predicts that turn in the tide OF
immigration is not far off, and that when II
comes It will offer the solution to the de-
pressed condition of American labor now
existing.
The tide Of immigration has been steadily
toward the United States for years. SAID
Mr.. McGann, 'until the labor market OF Eu-
rope is being 80 drained that the CONNER.
cial classes are awake to the necessity OF
keeping their labor at home. Furthermore,
the leading men OF Germany, France and
Great Britain place the labor question fore
most among the great national questions.
Bismarck and King William are urging re-
forms to ameliorate the condition OF labor.
In France labor is recognized by the Govern
ment to the extent OF establis hing public bu-
reaus for labor. similar to our intelligence
Offices where employers can secure men and
men can secure work. In England they are
twenty-five years ahead Of US IN lending
Government assistance 10 labor. There are
two half holidays each week. Wednesday
and Saturday afternoons, during which 1t is
illegal to keep men at work. Public halls
are provided for the meetings Of workmen.
Public parks are designated, where they may
spend their half holidays. Premier Rosebery
IS following Gla .stone in aiding toward the
better condition of labor.
"And while European countries are thus
bending every energy toward helping labor.
the United States is standing still, we are
already far behind our foreign neighbors,
and while they are going ahead We are go.
ing backward. This cannot but be recognized
by labor before long, and 1t will surely re-
suit in turning the tide Of Immigration away
from the United States"

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
TABLE CLOTHS AND NAPKINS.


Every housewife takes a deep inter.
est in the table linen, and fortunately
che may give free rein to her fancy in
this portion of her realm whatever
fashion may dictate in other direc.
tions. Sometimes this table cloth or
that set of napkins may commend
themselves to her favor for ordinary
occasions, but she will have a special
cloth with napkins to match the more
ceremonious occasions. White is al.
ways standard color and looks well,
and will be always in fashion, but it is
mistake for the economical house
keeper to select fancy, colored linens,
which may be popular one season and
entirely under the ban the next. Nap
kins are now indispensable at all we'll
regulated tables. Breakfast napkins
are considered of the right size if they
are half-yard square, but for dinner
they must be three-quarters of yard.
Besides the table cloth and napkins,
the numerous bits of linen connected
with the table service are most useful,
and most of them can be readily made
from linen remnants or the best por-,
tions of worn table cloths. The
housekeeper can thus secure an ample
supply of carving cloths, tray cloths,
children's cloths, as well as the means
of protecting the fine cloth or the
table from tea or coffee stains, or the
like. In fact, table linen in all its
various details may be said to have
reached the perfection of the art

Registration in Hawaii.

It appears that the native Hawallans arc
taxing an interest in the approaching Con-
stitutional convention. for which delegates
we're elected on May 2. by refraining from
having anything to do with it. The regis
tratio1 for voting was closed on April 21,
and only 1s5 natives took the oath OF allesi-
ance and registered as voters. The total reg
istration in Honolulu was 1907. which, al
though apparently small nun numoer; is not a a
bad showing as against tne 2ooo registered "l

Il is estimated that the total registration OF
all the islands will amount to 5000. large
number of the Americans who support the
Provisional Government have refrained from

citizenship.

OH for Locomotive Fuel.

The shortness Of coal, consequent on the
great miners strike, drove some OF the lead
ing railroads OF the country to the serious
consideration of using oil instead of coal as
fuel for locomotives. The Chicago, Burling
ton and Quincy Road, it is said, regards the
change as not entirely practicable. but as
most desirable for more reasons than one.
Il is conducting active experiments in. that
line at its yards at Aurora. superintendent
Rice is confident that with oil engines can be
run from Chicago to Ottumwa without
change and with far fewer stops for water
than at present. He says the scarcity OF fuel
has put railroad officials into line OF
thought that may develop something that
will revolutionize the fuel question. Oil
would be especially serviceable on runs like
the fast mail.

BALANCING THE ACCOUNTS

BALANCING THE ACCOUNTS
sBeg your pardon for interrupting
you!"
The words were spoken with cutting
irony, but it was clear how little the
speaker really felt the cold Indifference
that finds it's expression in Sarcasm. As
he stood at the head of the broad marble
steps, between the two heavy roman
esque pillars, with arms folded over his
breast motionless, his eyes flashed q
fearful. burning fire. 1t required tre-
mendous effort of his will power to re-
strain himself from leaping upon the
man below with the fury OF the tiger
who throws himself upon his prey, and
to engage in deadly grapple, man
against man, breast to breast
The Count had instinctive!y stepped
between the lady and her husband, so
that the latter could not see her. He
looked up in the threatening face OF his
adversary, waiting for him to speak.
The words came at last from Ralph's
quivering lips:

sir? I would speak to that lady. You

from the fierce glare Of her husbands

the vast hall.
@Go, Max! Ny love will always be with
you!" she cried again.
"Do you fear for your sweetheart,
madam? will not harm him now"
Ralph still stood the same attitude,
motionless, his arms folded on his breast,
as he spoke these words.
The Count feigned not to hear his
rivals taunts He walked across the
I floor toward Mrs. Warringham.

THE DOOM OF oCR WORLD.

What this change is to be, we do not even
conjecture but We see in the heavens them
selves some traces of destructive elements,
and some indications of their power. The
fragments of broken planets,-the descent OF
meteoric stones upon the globe,-the wheel
ing comets welding their loose materials at
the solar surface, the volcanic eruptions on
our own sattelita. the appearance Of new
stars. and the disappearance OF others, are
all foreshadows of that impending conrulsion
to which the system of the world is doomed.
Thus placed on planet which is to be burnt
up, AMI under heavens which are to pass
nway thus treading, rs it were. on the ceme-
teries. and dwelling on the mausoleums OF
former worlds, let US learn the lesson Of hu-
manitv and wisdom, if We have not already
been taught it in the school Of revelation.-

RELIGIOUS READING.
"sTRA1eHT AS TIE CROW FLIES"


Years and years ago, ,as student preaching
in small village, had made at the close OF
nv sermon something like an earnest appeal
l suppose. to the small company present, say
ing: "My friends, come to Jesus; would
that you would come to jesus" and after
ward. as I stood out there in the little
country road, lad came up to me, and ne
said:
III you please, sir, will You tell me what it
is to come to Jesus"
And though a preacher, the words little
astonished me, and I scarcely knew how to
put the Gospel in sentence to the lad; and
as stood there there was upon the pathway
before US on the road sparrow hopping
from point to point, from road to hedge. and
from hedge to road, and the thought came to
me to say:
'aly young friend, Jesus is nearer to you
than am; he knows more about you than
do. wish you would 90 to him straight
Just straight. He can hear everything. you
say, knows everything you are doing
