japanese Maid-servants.

Now the Chinese or Japanese maid
servant is becoming fashionable on &C.
count of her picturesque possibilities. If
she wears her native dress, she is about
as attractive as a $500 vase or rare
piece of brio -brac. Visitors like to
look at her, and consequently the pref
tier and more graceful the girl the
higher wages she can command. Long,
narrow eyes. thin. black brows and
clear complexion are the things desired.
An oriental girls hair is always shiny
and we'll arranged. and everything
around her is invariably neat. A part
Of her duties is attendance at the door.
There is where the spectacular feature
counts. After the ring of the electric
bell has died away there is pattering
of slippered feet or the clack of little
Japanese wooden stills, and the door
swings back, revealing small, brilliant
figure, with card tray concealed in the
depths of her sieve or kimono. 1t is all
very fetching.
Another function that the maiden
from over the seas is expected to per-
form is serving 5 o'clock tea. This is
peculiarly appropriate and lend an aroma
to the beverage. 1t never seems the same
afterward, when Gretchen with face
like platter, or Hibernian carries the
tray. The fad started in New York and
has naturally reached its height in San
Francisco, where the missions are not
able to supply the people who call upon
them. The missions, in fact, require ref
erences before they allow their girls to
go out. There is too much trouble in
rescuipg them to have them slip back
again, as they are quite likely to do if they
are not carefully watched. 1t will
not do to give them the liberties that
other serving maids have. for they are

Cats Beds.

Cats are the most obstinately capri
cious in their fancies about their beds of
any domestic creature, says writer in
the Spectator. They will follow par
ticular rug or shawl from room to room,
if it be removed, in order to sleep on it,
or insist on the use of one chair until
they get their way, and then, for some
reason take fancy to another. TIE
cleanliest of ali animals, anything ewly
washed or very fresh and bright strikes
them as just the thing for bed. A
nicely aired newspaper lying on the floor
or in a chair, or linen fresh from the
wash, is almost irresistible. Out door
cats seek a warm as we'll as tidy bed.
The writer was once much surprised,
when passing through large ship build
ing yard, to see cat fast asleep, lying,
it seemed. on muddy path. But the
spot which the cat had selected for its
couch was one at which hot steam
pipe passed under the road; and the mud
was there baked into warm dry cake,
which made not only clean, but an ar
officially heated sleeping place. But the
oldest taste in beds developed by cat
was that entertained by very highly
bred gray Angors, which was justly
petted and admired by the family in
which it lived. For some months it
would only sleep in or upon hat, if
such could be found, ladies' hats being
preferred. If it could discover one with
the inside uppermost, it would lie inside
of it. If not, such was it's love for this
form of couch, it would curl itself round
the brim, and, with it's long furry tail
and plant body, made fine winter
trimming to summer hat. By some
accident a drawer in which all the sum-
mer hats had been disposed for the win
ter was left open for some days, after
which it was discovered that all the hats
had been tried in turn, the cat having

Our English swan has long become a

times was highly priced. Great ecclesi-

upon the marshy flats of the eastern

preserved with the same jealous care.

Rural China.

On every side white homesteads are
scattered, each in it's setting of giant
bamboo shoots. When you have realized
the fact that each of these little clusters
of lime washed cottages represents the
home Of fathers, sons. grandsons and all
their female belongings. you will begin
to appreciate the density of the popula-
ton. In front of every farm stand yd
low straw stacks raised on wooden legs
and under each tiny red COW rumin-
ates, or else dull, hairy water buffalo,
stupidity wondering whether mouthful
of straw snatched from above will repay
the trouble of balancing on his hind
legs.
The general effect is most homelike
and pleasant 1t must be added that a
closer inspection of one of these farms
does not prove so satisfactory. Round
about the ground is strewed with litter
and broken earthen ware, while the
drainage from the cattle sheds forms
puddles on the roadway. The plaster
has fallen in flakes from the walls; the
gay lanterns and gaudy texts in red and
black that adorn the entrance only &C.
centuate the dismal untidiness; nor is
the semi circular fsh-tapk, half full of
stagnant water, pleasing either to eyes
or nose.

THE HASTY WORD.

To think before you speak is 80 wise
an axiom, that one would hardly think
it needful to emphasize it by repetition
And yet in how many cases the hasty
temper flashes out in the hasty word, and
the latter does it's work with the precis-
ion and the pain of the swift stilettol
Singularly enough, the hasty word often
est wounds those who love one another
dearly, and the very closeness of their
intimacy affords them opportunity for
the sudden thrust. We know the weak
points in the armour of our kinsman and
our friend; we are aware of is caprices,
and ordinarily are tender and compass
sionate even of his vanities and his small
fancies and whims; but there dawns a
day when it is written in the book of fate
that we shall be as cruel as we are low
ing. We are cold. or tired, or hungry.
We are anxious over unpaid bills, or our
expected letters have not arrived, OF one
of the children is ailing. and we dread
the outcome of the malady. Our polite
ness fails us. fortitude is vanquished
philosophy is in allegiance, and we say
that which we repent in sackcloth and
ashes. But though the hasty word may
be forgiven, it is not at once forgotten,
1t has flawed the crystal Of our friend
ship; the place may be cemented but
there is a shadowy scar on the cleaning
surface. Oh, if the word OF haste had
but been left unsr oxen; il the strong
hand of patience had but held back the
sword as it was about to striker

INTRODUCTION.
MATTHEW IS: la.

In nothing is the beneicence of the
reign of Christianity more manifest than
in the estimate now placed upon childhood
in our Christian communities. A Roman
senator once said to the Roman senate,
when there were more than four hundred
members present: ''You well know that
there is not one among you who has not
exposed and got rid of one or more chill
dren whom you did not wish to rear"
The dreadful inference from these words
may be an exaggeration of the fact: it
shocks our moral sense to think it possible
that child-murder could ever have been so
prevalent even in pagan Rome. But there
can be no reasonable question that, under
the iron rule of force, in which every thing
was sacrificed to the state and to the pass
ing moment, no child, simply because it
was child, was reckoned as having either
sanctity or value. A child born to the
purple or to patrcian estates was some
times welcomed into the world; yet even
such children, when in the way of ambi-
tious schemes, were often enough de-
stroyed. The average child in average
paganism. was received into the world with
regret and regarded as misfortune. But
under the rule of Christianity all that is
changed. Children are by Christians re
garded as entitled to the best the world
can give. The finest architecture of our
communities is now often put into our
schoolhouses. Some of our best literary
artists devote their work exclusively to
children. No church is complete that does
not provide good Sunday School room
and have thriving Sunday School. And
in Christian home the youngest child al
most invariably rules with more than royal
authority; the little girl is queen, the little
boy is king of the domestic circle. The
old prophecy has been fulfilled: "a little
child shall lead them" If in Christian
land, it were known that even one ser ator
had deliberately wronged, much less de-
stroyed, his child, he would be promptly
and justly deposed FROM Office; and the
disfavor in the state would be like mill
stone about his neck, to bury him in the
deep sea of popular condemnation.
