AN DREAM

Elias Howe almost beggared himself
before he discovered where the eye Of
the needle of a sewing machine SHOULD
be located. 1t is probably hat there are
very few persons who know how it came
about. His original idea was to follow
the model of the ordinary needle and
have the eye at the heel. 1t never oc-
Cured to him that it should be placed
near the point, and he might have fail
ed altogether if he had,n not dreamed he
wasr building a sewing machine for a
savage king in a strange country. just
as in his actual waking experience. he
was rather perplexed about the needles
eye. He thought the king gave him
twenty-four hours to complete the ma
chine and make it sew. If not finished
in that time, death was to be the pun
ishment. Howe worked and worked, and
puzzled and puzzled, and finally gave it
up. Then he thought he was taken out
to be executed. He noticed that the
warriors carried spears that were pierre
ed near the head. Instantly came the
solution of the difficulty, and, while the
inventor was begging for time he awoke.
IT was four o'clock in the morning. He
jumped out of bed ran to his workshop,
and by nine a needle with an eye at the
point had been rudely modelled. After
that it was easy. This is the true story
of an important incident in the inven-
ton of sewing machine.

it is not surprising that it sometimes

THE REAL ANARCHISTS.

"We do not need to throw bombs to
become anarchists" says DR.. Heron.
1.-THE open violation of the Interstate
commerce law by railroad manage
ments is anarchy. The use of our leg
lislative institutions for corporate pri-
vate interests is a national anarchy Of
fearful character and danger. Our
anarchists are among the fearfully
cunning and INSCRIPTIONS, the social
ly strong and industrially powerful,
the victorious competitors and spoil
ers Of the peoples substance, and the
violation of our interest laws by bank
ers and money lenders is anarchy; the
combinations to depress the price of
the farmers products and raise those
of the mechanics food are anarchist
ic; every scheme to enrich idleness at
the expense of labor, whether it takes
the form Of real estate speculation or
cornering money or any other necessi-
ty of life. is Of the nature of anarchy.
Indeed, he who fails to recognize and
abide by the eternal laws Of life is an
anarchist, whether he knows it or not.

listing which will give due consideration
to the question before it s%urrenders
control of our institutions to the fund
holders, arrogant and INSCRIPTIONS as

THOROUGHNESS IN HOUSEKEEP.
ING.

The habit of thoroughness in house
keeping leads one to keep rooms in good
order, and the table beautifully ap-
pointed. I know a girl who says that
she takes pains with her room when
ever she thinks her Aunt Mary is COM
ing to see her, for Aunt Mary's sharp
eyes discover every speck of dust, and
observe any trife that is in the least
out of order. Aunt Mary is a bit of a
critic, and her niece a little. afraid of her
comments.
In other words, the aunt has made a
coward Of the girl. I do not like the
idea of being in bondage to anybody,
whether an aunt or q stranger. It would
seem to me a far better way to feel
that one must answer to ones self, and
that one would not feel satisfied unless
she could look herself in the glass and
say: There, everything is done in the
best possible manner, and you cannot
find any fault with me today. Try to,
If you dare!"
l wonder whether you are particular
to write notes of thanks very soon after
receiving gifts or acts of courtesy? The
value of a note of thanks is greatly in
creased by its being prompt. If some
friend leaves a bunch of violets at your
door and you fail to acknowledge it
until the flowers have faded, your
thanks, when they do come, are tardy.
When flowers are sen to those who are
i'll, they, of course, cannot repay the
courtesy by a little note themselves.
but some n in the family should do it
for them. Your note of thanks should
be very genial, showing that you are
really pleased by the kind attention and
the happier because Of it. Do not be
afraid to write warmly and cordially on
such occasions. If stiff and formal you
are unjust both to your friend and your
