A Creed Of Love.

Do not keep the alabaster boxes Of
your love and tenderness sealed up until
your friends are dead. Fill their lives
with sweetness. Speak approving, Cheer
ing words while their ears can hear
them and while their hearts can be
thrilled and made happier by them. The
kind things you mean to say when they
are gone say before they go. The flow
ers you mean to send for their cofins
send to brighten and sweeten their
homes before they leave them. II my
friends have alabaster boxes laid away
full Of fragrant perfumes Of sympathy
and affection which they intend to break
over my dead body. / would rather they
would bring them out in my weary and
troubled hours and open them, that I
may be refreshed and cheered by them
while need them. Iwould rather have
plain coffin without a flower, funeral
without q .eulogy, than life without
the sweetness of love and sympathy. Let
us learn to anoint our friends before
hand for their burial. Post mortem
kindness does not cheer the burdened
spirit. Flowers on the coffin cast no
fragrance backward over the weary way.

A Novel DyeinE Process.

A writer In The Industrie Textile de-
scribes an improved process for dyeing
wool and silk combinations, In which the
piece to be treated is prepared In q boiling
neutral solution Of bichromate Of soda and
rinsed, leaving the wool fiber only chArg-
cd with chronic scid, and consequently In
Q condition to flx basic Amines by oxida-
tion-thus, the cloth being taken through
o solution Of aniline salt, the silk becomes
but slightly stained, while the wool fiber
assumes an emerald green color. A second
bath Of neutral chromate dyes the wool
blue and does not affect tho silk fiber, and
consecutive and repeated runs through
ohromate water and dilute acid lead up
10 black on the one and preserve white
the other flber. Further, II naphthylAmine
be taken In place Of aniline, q combina-
tion Of white with blue, garnet and 9TH
or mode oolors is the result and subse-
quently the silk may be filed up with o
suitable dye. Another improvement In
this line Is that by which o superior fast
black on silk is obtained The silk is first
bottomed with prussian blue, then NOR
danted with tannio acid or catechu and tin
and topped with alizarine, havo purpur-
Inc or anthra purpurine In soap bath.
The color II much faster than q logwood
