The Very Latest Idea in Linen Fancy

The very newest thing in fancy work is

Cactus Visiting Cards.

Many are the uses to which the cactus is

walls In Cape Town. South Africa, where
cactus leaves are made to serve the purpose
of visiting ards. The leaves of the special
kind Of cactus used for this purpose are not
very prickly. however. and, furthermore,
these unique cards are not carried about
but are left growing on the plant. which
stands at the foot of the front steps, When
a lady calls she has only to take out her
hatpin and scratch her name on the glossy
surface Of one Of the leaves, while a gen.
tleman accomplishes the same end with his
knife. The lines thus scratched turn silver
white and remain clear and distinct on the
leaf for years. New Years day these cac-
tus cards are particularly convenient, and
popular hostesses often appropriate a large
branch Of their cactus plant to the registry
of visits received that day.

How Servants Are Spoiled.
From the New York Herald


Ladies who are particularly good to their
servants" says a. WOMAN who runs an en-
ployment agency "are almost sure to spoil
very good material Some women are lib
eral, for instance about the hours out.
Not having anything particular for the girl
to do they let her go out till It is time to
get dinner. The girl. finding she can have
a good deal more liberty by not claiming
any certain day. very readily gives that
day up. Some girls thus get off nearly
every day except washing and ironing days
The next mistress of that girl has a hard
time Of it. Such an indulgence utterly
ruins most girls. They will never again be
satisfied with anything short of liberty at
pleasure. They will use the same argument
Of the easy-going mistress. There isn't
anything to do till 4 o'clock. I might as
well have a turn in the park. And they
always brag of their liberties to other girls
and make them discontinued. Many a good
servant has been utterly spoiled for any,
body else-and herself, too. for that mat
ter-by good natured and well meaning in
diligence"

date danger Of insanity, paralysis, idiocy

any nervous affection. He knew he was
afflicted with nervous disorder, but was
careless, apparently Indifferent to the out
come or he may have lessened his chances
for recovery by treating with physicians
who had little or no knowledge of such af-
fections, or by deluging himself with worth
less so-called remedies. His case was a sad
one, but no worse than that of any other
nervous sufferer, who has nervous or sick
headache, biliousness, dizziness, irritability,
melancholy, falling memory, hot flashes,
fainting, sleeplessness, nervous dyspepsia,
sexual debility, epilepsy, etc. The same or
similar consequences are likely to result to
any one who has any of these advance
symptoms of an awful end. Do not hesitate
