Twinkle. twinkle little star
How I wonder what Won are

and the Stars did twinkle on Wednes-
day night, and hustle round too, to en-
tertain their invited guests, a goodly
number of whom had assembled with
them at their hall for an evenings s
social enjoyment. The program given
was very fine and gave great pleasure
to all present. The choir furnished
some fine music. Misses Mamie Pearce
and Maud Grandy gave readings, and
showed proficiency in that line. Miss
Addie and Fred Palmer gave duet in
their usual pleasing manner and were
we'll received. Miss Lulu High enter
tanned the company with violin solo,
and by special request gave a second
one, both Of which were very highly
appreciated and generously applaud
ed. Mrs. McNair's recitation, "The
burning ship" was given with fine
effect and showed marked ability as
an elocutionist. Miss Anna Brown
brought down the house with her piece
"Moses stealing the water mellon" and
the encore was so generous another
piece was given, and still another be-
fore the audience would De satisfied.
The general verdict is that Anna is a
born elocutionist and need not take a
hack seat for any of them. Coffee and
fried cakes and sandwiches were then
served around in generous abundance,
and the sandwiches we're not built with
Bay City chips either. Everything
was nice, and every one enjoyed them
selves to their hearts content, and
went home wishing that such social
gatherings were more frequent.

These managing mothers have the
knack of making over garments and

look new by coloring over with Magic
Dyes, at expense of only few cents
and little easy work, for it is easy to

For the Temperance Cause.

The Nj. Z. church was we'll filled last
Tuesday evening by very appreciative
audience to listen to the temperance
prohibition lecture delivered by Mr..
Prouty, the English Prohibtionist, who
has been lecturing through the country
during the last season. MIR. Prouty is
very forcible speaker and presented
the subject in very eloquent manner
from various standpoints, attributing
much of the misery and hard times
now prevailing to the fact that the
money spent by the laboring men, too
much of it goes to the brewers instead
of going to keep the wheels of industry
humming, and scored numerically
the unco-pious souls that pray so
unctiously to God Almighty to put
down the evil of intemperance, and
then go to the polls and vote for insti-
tutions that will legislate to legalize
and perpetuate it. His cartoons assist
ed greatly in illustrating the lecture:-
"King Gambrino and Uncle Sam" were
rich in suggestion. Uncle Sam, with his
usual boldness of speech, Is made to
Say to his highness, "You're thief,
but say, Mr., just give me a share of
tllC bWdHp anu VIC Will HlNC JOu luli
liberty to follow your trade" Another
one was equally suggestive:-"The dear
people," represented by figure, gaunt
and ragged and bare, with face, such
face, the very picture of woe and
want and misery. This figure was
chained to the withered trunk of a
tree, with two other figures standing
by, one of them churchman forging
new links for the chain, and on the
other side was the saloon man, agent
of King Gambrino, with both hands
down deep in the pockets of the poor
victim already poor, weak and emacia-
ted. They were striking pictures and
spoke volumes to the thinking mind
The lecture was also finely illustrated
by Mr.. Esserly's songs, especially the
two following: The first one man
who sowed bag of pumpkin seeds and
watered them every nights and morning
| with his prayers and expected to raise
field of corn. The corn didn't come
however. The other one had n fine
point and was highly appreciated, en-.
titled 1.-The twin ballots" Nesting to-
gether in the ballot box, one cast by a
jolly fat brewer, the other by Sunday
school man. Altogether the lecture
was a good one, and very instructive
and left good impression with all
who heard it. Mr.. Prout goes to La
peer Co. to give a series of lectures
there.

THE MIKADo NO GOD TO HER
Empress OF Japan Has q Mind and VIII
OF Her Own.

Empress OF Japan Has Mind and VIII
OF IIer Own.
Although Empress Haruleo Of Japan,
In public at any rate, manifests tho
same degree Of religious vencrntion for
tho sacred person Of the milendo that
Is exactcd from tho remainder Of his
subjects, yet she Is credited with dis
playing In private something very much
akin to contempt for his scmi-divine ut
tributes. Whereas he is distinctly dull
and heavy. both physically and mon
tally, his wife. on tho contrary, is re-
nowned for her clevcrness, her enlight-
cned ideas, md for her strength Of
character In Japan, as elsewhere in
the orient, women are expected to re-
main obscquiously in the background
and to follow mcclsly In tho wake Of
their husbands, but Empress narulso
takes the lead, and, as tho decidedly
better half OF tho two, makes her hus-
band yield to her superior intelligence
and influence.
TO her moro than anyone else belongs
the credit for the Extraordinarily rapid
advance Of Japan In the path of west
crn civilization, and in her efforts in
/ behalf Of her picturesque country she
is greatly assisted by the advice Of Em-
press Frederick of Germany, with
whom she is in regular weekly cor
rcspondcncc. Indeed, many of the new
departures in Japanese life Of the pres
cnt day may be traced to the recon-
mcndations Of the cldcst-and by far
tho most nccomplishcd--daug Of
Queen Victoria.

Left His Fortune to Science.

Count Victor Boworowslxy, an eccen-
trio Polish noblcman, has left his en-
tire estate to DO nd1ninistratcd bv
trustees in tho interest Of scicnce. art
and literature. The estate is described
rs amounting at present to Several mil
lion florins," but as it is to accumulate
until the total amounts to twenty mil
lions, the count had evidently somo
fear that the government of Galic;o
would refuse to act; in which case tho
entire property will pass to the British
nnscum. The count had been ofI,ictod
with blindness for many years, and y,
fortnight ago committed suicide Mt

THE "ORowNER'S QUEST"

An Absurd Old Law Which Has Somo
Worry Undesirable Rcsults.
Dickens, who 80 often studied with
delighted interest tho application Of
English law to particular eases, would
have found q subject worthy of his
grimmest hulnor in the fact, cabled
recently from London, that when tho
master of fishing smack, cruising near
where the Elbc went down, saw float
ing in the water Il dead body, which
was doubtless that of Il victim Of tho
great disaster, he made no effort to res
cue 1T from the waves and carry it
ashore for identification and burial Z
Instead he sailed past and away from
the dolcful bit Of flotsam as quietly as
circumstances would permit, not, as
ono might suppose, because he was Il
particularly hard-hcnrtcd and cold
bloodcd mariner, but because 'rccrnt-
ly, after landing II body. he had been
forced to pay the funeral expenses"
Curious as that experience had been
and delightfully."- illustrative as it was
of "crowncr'S quest" wisdom. the cap
tain had no inclination TO repeat it.
One lesson had been enough TO teach
him the great principlc that common
sense cannot hr allowed TO Interfere
with consistency in the enforcement of
parliamentary act. and what, in conn
parison with that, is the continued
agoniZed uncertainty of some German
wife or mother?
