How Mrs. Carlisle Keeps Cool.

Mrs. Carlisle's prescription for endur- ing the heat is first of all not to worry or fret Do all your work early in the day and try to find some light employ ment, either physical or mental, to keep your thoughts from the thermometer and how lawfully hot it is.
 The wife of the secretary enjoys her home to the utmost. She has the house rid of many of the heavier hangings and thicker rugs as soon as the weather becomes oppressive. The large, airy rooms are clad as far as possible in cool summer attire, and the intense heat of the midday is shut out. Washington Letter.

I made up my mind long ago that they were dead, and the news from Toronto is no surprise to me. 1 believe that the boy was mur- dercd alsO"

Her Heart Upon Her Sleeve.

The up to date girl, says the New York Sun, wears her heart upon her sleeve. It's gold or silver heart, to be sure, and it dangles about her neck from a long, slender chain, but it is of locket pattern, and within it are like ness and the lock of hair-presumably of her sweetheart. The hearts are about an inch and half long and appear in all grades of responsiveness. Sometimes they are of richly chased gold set with precious stones, but again they are sim ply of frosted silver.

 The attempt which has been made to deprive Dan O'Reilly of his position of night policeman in the borough bids fair to prove a failure. At the meeting of the board of burgesses, when the vote was tie, three for Reilly and three for Kenney Warden Morris had the matter laid over until a future meeting until he could investigate as to the facts of the question. Burgesses Hassett, Backes and Phelps voted for Reilly, and Luby, who has for some time past been hostile to Officer Reilly, together with Darrlgan and Kimberly, who were elected on the anti-Reilly platform, were in favor of Kenney. A certain element of the democratic party has been against the officer for some time. and used their endeavors to get him off the police force, and for a short time succeeded. One year when by misunderstanding he was turned down by the board of burgesses, but after wards was reinstated, and since that time has faithfully performed his duty as an officer 1t is believed that War den Morris is now in possession of the facts of the case, and at the next meet ing of the board will decide the matter fairly and appoint Officer Reilly on the force for the coming year

Laurel Hill cemetery, Philadelphia, will have part in this days reflections with me. That grave is a part of our household treasures. But thank God in yon heavenly home the song has no sad notes and no dying cadence. The sIhad- ows all fall on the earthward side of the grave. Even here, however, we lift our eyes and in the sublime outlook see the eternal home gathering, where our loved ones will fly to our arms as sun beams to the heart of flowers.
 The other and sadder thought is the absence of Christ from so many homes to-day. Without Christ in the home and the heart your songs will be mere surface anthems, and eternity will throw a pall of despair over the at tempted festivities of this day, Oh think, in that bright and eternal home, where the feast Is perpetual and the song eternal Some may be missing; you may be absent. We want the chil- dren all home to-day. Will they all be at that eternal feast? This is the dark est shadow on our banquets to-day. The ghost at our family reunion.
 When Jesus went home with Zach aeus, the publican, to dine with him the people murmured, saying, He is gone to be the guest of a man who is a sinner" May Jesus be your guest to-day, All the vacant seat at the table and be the crowning joy of your sa cred memories and hallowed associa- tions. Blessed Savior! Come to our homes to-day and tune our hearts to sing Thy praise"
