One of the most remarkable churches
is to be found at Prudential, in the
Black Forest. 1t is built ON such plan
that the men are unable to see the wom-
en-, and vice versa, for it is composed of
two wings, which meet at an angle
where the pulpit stands. The right wing
is allotted to men, and the left one to
the women of the congregation. Berlin

My little son, who look d from thoughtful eyes
And mov'd and spoke in quiet, grown up wise.
Having my law the seventh time disobeyed,
! struck him and DISMISSED
With hard words and unkiss'd,
His mother, who was patient, being dead
Then, fearing lest his grief should hinder sleep.
! visited his bed,
But found him slumbering deep,
With darkened eyelids and their lashes yet
From his late sobbing wet,
And I, with moan,
Kissing away his tears, left others of my own,
For on table drawn beside his head
He had put, within his reach,
box Of counters and red vein'd stone,
A piece Of glass abraded by the beach
And six or seven shells,
A bottle with bluebells
And two French copper coins. rang'd there
with careful art
To comfort his sad heart.
30 when that night prayed
To God and wept and said:
"Ah, when at last we lie with tranced breath,
Not vexing thee in death.
And thou rememberest of what toys
We make our joys,
How weakly understood
Thy great commanded good,
Then, fatherly not less
Than whom thou hast nodded from the clay,
Th0u'lt leave thy wrath and say,
Il will be sorry for their childishness. 4"

One of the dentists of this city has a

the family was at the house, and she
spoke of Niagara. The 4-year-old quick

HE WAS VERY HUNGRY.


How = Texan Got a Good Meal at a Gen.
erals Expense.
Mr.. Goss, in his "Recollections of a
Private, quotes the remarks of Con-
federate about two famous leaders under
whom he had fought. This man said of
Stonewall jackson, ''H you uns had
some good general like him, reckon
you uns could lick we uns. When ask
ed whether he had ever seen General
Lee, he replied: eyes; was a sort of
orderly for Uncle Robert for awhile.
He's mighty calmlike man when a
fight is going on. -
This story is told of General John B.
Magruder:
Our General Magruder thinks a pow

He alters has a right smart of truck.
There was a Texas Teller one time
who had struggled from his brigade,
and he were pert one, he were, stran-

general, buttons and all-that Texas
Teller were. He saw Magruder's table
all spread, with heap of good fixin's
on it, and I'll be hanged if he didn't
walk in, pert as you please, grabbed
knife and fork and opened fire all along
the line on them fixin's.
Magruder heard something in his
tent and hurried i'll and asked that Tex

Texan lowed he were hungry Then the
general, stiff and grandlike, said, DO
you know, sir, at whose table you are

How to Keep Lemons Fresh,

1t is not generally known that lemons
may be easily and almost indefinitely
preserved under glass. Some, one year,
were purchased on the Fourth of July,
and, by way of experiment, each one
was put under an inverted goblet. Thus
kept from the air, they were finally re-
moved, on Christmas day, in perfect
condition and as juicy as ever.

WHEN WOMAN IS NOT GRACEFUL
Conditions Under Which She Manages to
Look Absurd.


Conditions Under Which She Manages to
Look Absurd.
Why is it that, Notwithstanding the
worship accorded to woman in the alb
stract, she generally manages to look
absurd under conditions wherein men
try to keep their dignity? Is it stereo-
typed convention which hampers our
judgments, or are these things really
facts? For instance, there is nothing re-
mnrkable in an old gentleman crossing
street or even walking in a gale of
wind, but place an elderly woman,
somewhat portly, in the same situation,
and the result is caricature. Her pet
ticoats outline her shape absurdly, a
vast expanse of stocking fills doubt
full gap, and her feet seem to struggle
helplessly.
Few women can enter a carriage,
mount the steps of coach or hurry in
to hanson gracefully, while the spec
tacle of woman getting into boat is
far from pleasing. A stout lady on BIZ
cycle gives fair cause for ridicule, and
yet fat people dance far more lightly
and buoyantly than thin people. The
slimmest girl cannot run prettily, and
as for football, we have seen the re-
suits
But, to leave the sphere of athletics,
dowager in low dress is far from
pleasing, while the multiplicity Of OBJ
| jects carried by woman when out shop
ping seems to hamper and render her
movements awkward She has none of
the convenient pockets affected by men,
she is always seeking for her pocket
handkerchief or struggling to extract
her purse from the black folds of her
gown, or burdened with an umbrella,
parcel, satchel or with her dress it.
self. On journey she is hot and fius-
tered and in a hurry and numbered
with many cares, while man drops
easily into his seat, unfolds his paper
and smokes or thinks, impervious to
fate. A woman is only really graceful
when she is at rest, lolling in carriage
or sitting in drawing room or else
dancing, when she has the genius for it

was not ready. A bridesmaid was sent
to notify her that George Edward was
in the oriel room and the band under

strains of the wedding march.
Il don't care, she pouted as she
threw herself disconsolately ON a divan,
to the great danger of her veil: "I'm

the perplexed bridesmaid.

"Get me some bread crumbs and b

the party. "Quick I'll have them white

bride. "Now shall feel that 1 am

After me-do."

leaning on the arm Of George Edward,

her, and she felt that way herself. De-
