zed nations since its FORMULATION from
Mount Sinaip THERE'S no perfection in

by most honest and fair minded men that
the Vermont prohibitory liquor law is
one of the best and most humane laws
in the land.
The writer speaks of educating the
'autocratic minority who inhabit the
hamlets of the State, as to the con-
ditions and sentiments existing in the
larger places" have yet to learn that
those 'living in hamlets outside the

He calls them autocratic; fthat be true
they certainly should be allowed to ex-
ercise their rights in the formation of
the laws that govern them. | believe it
is one of the greatest safeguards to our
State and nation that the inhabitants he
speaks of as dwelling in hamlets, wheth-
er in minority or a majority, have suf-
ficient power to hold the would-be au-
tocracy of the larger places in check. 1t
is to be hoped that it will be long time
before the inhabitants of the rural dis

voted the Democratic ticket but had
about made up his mind to flop. A few
days after he came in and annouced that
he had been converted to Republicanism

some reason of his own, but he didn't.

The Best COnfidant

1t is all very we'll to talk about
cir, friends, brothers or husbands be-
ing the best cortidants in the world
but the one who is in reality the only
true and sincere sympathizer and
listener is ones mother. If you own
such rare and precious gift, don't
turn aside to pour your woes and
your joys into other ears. for life con
tains no bond SO true, no sympathy
so ready and heart as that which
binds mothers heart and soul to the
interest of her children. Just as soon
as you feel averse to telling your
mother all that is in your heart you
may rest assured that you are on the
wrong track, and the sooner you turn
back to the path from which you
strayed the pleasanter will be the days,
and more blissfully dreamless the
nights.-EX.

A WORD OF CHEER

Politics may 60 wrong, the times
may be out of Joint, and greedy Shy
locks may corner the money of the
country, but they have not been able
to corner Gods sunshine and dew and
gentle summer rain.
The spectators have found one
thing that they connot control-the
weather that has come like benedic-
ton and promise. The hard condi-
ton forced upon us by grasping men
will nov lose their potency. From
all quarters of the south come reports
of abundant crops. We shall have
enou Oh to feed us all, with plenty to
spare. Cotton and corn and all that
is needed by man and beast will be
ours in the greatest abundance. with
a big surplus that will bring the ready
cash.
1t is true that the indications point
to low prices. Under the single gold
standard we cannot expect anything
else. but our immense harvests will
put large volume of money into cir
culation even at low prices and all
classes of our people will be relieved
from the pressure of hard times dur
ing the the coming fall and winter.
This brighter outlook is not in any
sense due 20 wise legislation or to the
policy of our statesmen. 1t is Gods
blessed work of relief, and it comes
just when the people need it most
Peacefully and patiently we have
learned to labor and to wait, and our
reward is now in sight.
This is the bright side of the situa-
ton and it is pleasure to contem-
plate it. In spite of the schemes of
the money sharks and the blunders of
our statesmen there will be peace and
plenty and Joy at our tiresides this
winter. With this inspiration and
divine encouragement let us turn
our faces to the light and move for,
ward. We are working out the solu
ton of our problems, and this inter
position of benign Providence il
our favor should cause even the faint
hearted to rejoice and look forward
with new hope and confdence.-At

COMMON FAULTS IN PUPILS.

Prevalent Habits aud Errors That Ought
to BE Corrected by Teachers.
The pupil is usually unaware Of his
own mannerisms, such as swaying his
body, beating time with his head and
the like. 1t is the teachers privilege
and duty to correct these and similar
curious habits. Venturing in to play u
new piece, many pupils strike at the
notes with no very definite idea Of the
Glef, signature and time mark, the three
fundamentally important things upon
which success depends. The mariner
starting on voyage without chart, rud-
der and compass, three equally impor-
tapt things, would run constant risk Of
shipwrecl. Many a pupil has found
himself stranded in region of flats
when he should have been in sharps; has
found himself moving in waves Of six
eights, when the underlying current
should have been in eight-eighths. He
who is wise makes careful and adequate
preparation for his musical voyage be-
fore touching a note, says The Etude, au-
thority for the following:
One of the most prevalent and distress
ing habits is that of striking the hands
separately instead of together in double
chords and octaves, and the same fault
is frequently heard in passages Of single
notes where two hands should strike 81
multaneously. The incoming of the
right hand a quarter or half second
after the left gives a peculiar effect to
the music allowable and necessary in
some passages of earnest or tender senti-
ment, but used unintentionally or with
false Judgment it is exasperating in the
extreme to the sensitive ear. Why the
right hand should follow the left in such
manner is one Of the mysteries, but the
habit should be avoided at all cost.
A very natural tendency among pupils
is one that is not confined TO the lesson
hours. There it is expected that more

Domestic and Imported China--Lamps

In no portion of the dwelling is the

or less of nervousness will be felt by the
pupil, who in his excitement will hurry
the movement of his work. But even in
practice hours anxiety may overthrow
his balance and cause, especially in hard
passages, the same hindering haste. Too
much cannot be said in favor of slow,
steady practice-it cures digital stam-
mering and stumbling; it gives oppor-
tunity for accurate comprehension of
the contents of the page for honest plan
ming; it largely secures command Of all

For table decorations there are designs
without number. \ bright woman may

be forgotten. If flowers are used, they
should not be profusely selected of the
sweet scented varieties. With the odors
Of viands and those of blossoms ming
ling together there can be but little
harmony. Neither should the decora-
tions be made so high that the view is
intercepted between parties placed Wis
avis. Again while the dining room
should be comfortable, it is a mistake to
have it kept too warm. The windows
may be slightly opened from the top,
yet not enough to create draft.
One of the latest fashions is that Of a
triangle shaped dining table made by
placing three small tables corner to cor
ner. Over the cavity may be placed a
large circular tray, which can be filled
with flowers. This arrangement has the
merit of novelty and the fact that every
one faces the host and hostess, who oc-
cupy seats respectively at the point of
the triangle and the center of the base.
The dining room ought to be well
lighted. A number of mirrors adds to
that purpose. Nothing can be more
enliyeuing than the effect of multiplied
lights and the reflections from the
gleam Of crystal and silver. Somehow
these seem to gently exhilarate and pro-
