not. You should have courage TO say
no No. if you are asked TO drink. In
looking back over my life / can recall
many OF the best ind most promising
OF my companions who were ruined by
the haOit OF drinking-not one of whom
ever imagined that he would be wreck

safety in moderate drinking; every

after the brew had been poured off.
She liked them so much that she per-
sisted in the practice for several days,
when she became seriously i'll, and a
physician who was,called TO attend her
said that she had symptoms of poisoning
and pronounced her case hopeless.
Whether she used black tea or green
tea is not stated. Probably it WAS black
tea, or dangerous symptoms would have
developed more promptly. Green tea
often contains copperas, which is pois
onous. Not every body knows that it is
prejudicial to health to drink tea in
which the leaves have stepped too long;
but this is nevertheless fact. The
best authorities say that five minutes is
the longest time that water can remain
on the tea without beginning to acquire
deleterious qualities. This should be
remembered by all persons who drink

Stitches In Ncedleworls.

Antique chain stitch, more or less en- re.
lief, according to tension, is composed OF
q continuous series of loops in wool, cot
ton or silk, caught down In tho center
with either hook or needle into q dent in
the semblance of plat. 1t is in great
requisition in linen and in general use as
an outline, grounding and solid filling OF
designs and oven of faces in old figure
work.
Tapestry stitch, also known rs crewel,
long or short, economy, embroidery stitch,
consists of smooth mass of closely set
dovetailed stem stitches, taken as much
as possible in line either with the warp or
wool of the stuff on which the work is
done. 1t is invaluable in shading and re-
producing the subjects Of tapestries ON rib
bed canvas. In applique work tho design
is delineated with cut out pieces of any
kind of material, from delicate muslin,
stout leather to gold cloth, which are APP
piled with paste or lacking on the traced
out foundation, usually of q different fab
ric and color and then defined with either
cord, beads, buttonholing, besides being
voined and shaded according to require
ments.
COUGHING, employed either rs q ridge
or outline or diaper work, is represented
by strands of wool, chenille and silk twist
stretched across the ground and caught
down with q speaking of vertical stitches
to represent detached clusters or describe
gcometrical patterns. 1t is specially in
requisition in costly bullion or church
work alike for backgrounds or delinea-
lions of garments.

A Game of Little French Children.

A game which tho New York Sun says
is great favorite with French children Is
ia Tour, Prends Garde"-''Tower, Take
Care" Two children join hands to rep
resent tho tower. The colonel and the
captain march around the tower The
duke Ia at a distance, with his son by his
side, and tho guards stand near him. The
colonel and the captain sing:
Flower, take care, tower, take care, or
you will be torn down." and the tower
answers
1--WE will take care; wo will take care
not to be torn down." And again the
colonel and tho captain:
II will go and complain, will go and
complain to the Duke Of Bourbon"
go and complain, go and complain to
tho Duke Of Bourbon"
So the colonel and the captain kneel
before tho duke and complain to him
about the conduct of the tower. The duke
sends one of his guards, and tho song and
dialogue are repeated, and the colonel and
the captain get two guards, then three.
When there are no moro guards, they ask
for the dukes son, and finally they beg
him to destroy the tower. He places him
self at the head Of the limo and tries to pull
apart the hands of tho children who rep
resent the tower. The child who succeeds
In doing so becomes duke for the next
round. This Is an ancient song.
