Old Fashioned Herbs.

Old fashioned people could tell the
names as well as the properties of many
flowers, and had smattering of know1-
edge. almost intuitive, Of pot herbs and
simples, and certain degree of plant
lore was handed down from parents to
children. All this is being fast forgot
ten, and the pretty country names and
the Old World meanings, oftenof them
selves a whole history in word, are
alike relegated to the lumber room Of
the past, disappearing before the botany
manuals, with their glib vocabulary, as
swiftly assaborigines in the track Of
civilization. The modern Perdita would
scarcely recognize her posy; you must
go back two generations at least for the
names, and, it is to be feared, further
still for their derivations.
Poor selly things" said an old dame
recently; 'they can none of them do Dis

er would have stared to see the doctors
carriage at the door SO long as she could
stir the yarb pot; but it sims as no one
has their health nowadays. They all
larn themselves so onsatisfed they're
forced to go to the towns to get i'll.
And for the few who remain behind the
leisure, the ease and the carelessness of
the country life are gone.-Macmillan's

The Chances olrls Have.

Many girls believe that their possibili-
ties are inferior to those Of boys, and
thereby their best efforts are hindered.
1t is an erroneous belief, and girl
should maintain the opposite opinion
without fear or favor. She need not be
an egotist nor indulge in overweening
self confidence, but simply rise above
the false sentiment that girls are more
''the creatures of circumstance" than
boys. Too many are so content with
the actual that they do not aspire after
the possible. They accept the present
situation as if change for better or worse
were out of the question. Perhaps they
are wholly unconscious of fheir reserved
powers-do not even reflect that themind
is capable of constant and eternal prog
ress. Hence they do not dream'that they
may become superior to misfortune and
sorrow, greater than vicissitudes and
trials. and abundantly qualified for the
highest positions. They live dependent
ly, languidly and hopelessly. Lacking
the inspiration of conscious greatness,
they settle down into unwomanly little
ness to become the sport Of a change of
fortune and be miserable thereafter.
Girls should feel that such an experience
is both unnecessary and degrading; that
even the reverses of life may be made
subservient to mental and moral tri-
umph. Miller's Magazine.

n.nublican Milton Made a lord.

NY Paris correspondent writes, Deep
ly as British civic corporations are sunk
In snobbism, none Of them ever fell SO
low as, in naming street after the hero
of Trafalgar or of Waterloo, to cl listen
it Lord Nelson street or Duke Of We'll
lington street,
My correspondent underestimated tho
depth of snobbism in civic human ma
ture. There is. 1t appears, Lord Mel
son street" in Liverpool Even this is
outdone in Newcastle-on-Tyne. Some
years ago that city boasted Of two Byron
streets and two Milton streets. In order
to get rid of the consequent confusion,
the corporation, instead of altering
"street" into some synonymous term,
hit on the beautiful plan of turning one
thoroughfare into 'Lord Nelson street.
and another into "Lord Milton street" "
and so tho names remain to this day.

New York Women and Real Estate.


Women are getting foothold in the
real estate business in this city. Neces-
sity is usually the cause, but results 50
far have been most satisfactory. Agnes
Murphy, now Mrs. Mulligan, who has
for several years been the only woman
member of the exchange, is likely soon
to have company with the admission Of
Mrs. s. III. Blakeley, who has taken
charge of the business which her hus-
band conducted until his death year
ago. 1t will be remembered that Miss
Murphy succeeded to the business left
by the death Of her father, and devel-
oped it far beyond any plans which he
entertained. Mrs. Blakeley seems to
have had similar good fortune with the
business of her husband, having already
negotiated several important sales.
Some of the largest syndicate operations
in the annexed district were organized
and carried through by Miss Murphy.
Several other women have also taken
hold of this business, left them as their
only legacy. They are all earnest and
persistent, and have done 80 well as to
compel the respect of everybody in the
business New York Times.

Conrrcgational Fund for ministers.

What becomes Of disabled and aged
ministers and their families? A good
many of them depend on friends for
support, some on public charity. some
suffer in extreme poverty. The average
salary of ministers allows no margin to
be laid aside. The minister himself is
likely to cease to be in demand at an
age when men in other professions are
most prosperous. Our denomination is
far behind others in providing for worn.
out ministers and ministers widows.
A foundation has been laid for fund
sufficient to provide for the most press
ing needs. The trustees Of the national
council, having charge of this work,
have in hand about $e5,000. The Rev.

has consented to present this matter to
the churches for three years, in the hope
that by that time the needed amount
will be raised. Boston Congregation
