REVIVAL OF WEAVING.

A NEW occupation and fashion among
n English women is that of drawing
room weaving upon light houselooms.
Upon these looms handwoven table linen
and towels, with and without borders, are
woven. Though the world i s not suffering
for these hand-woven products, they are
thought by some to have an artistic value
that mach inewoven fabrics have not,
and as we copy English fashions sooner or
later, it is predicted that ere long American
women too, will perhaps return to bygone
occupation, from which their grandmothers
were very thankful to be free.

One Wants to- BE a Bride.

In the senior class of Christian College.
Columbia. Mo-, there is only one young
woman who is willing to admit that mar
riage is her principal purpose in life.
This very saddenng evidence of the in
fluence of college training was called
forth by the question put by the president
Of the college to each senior. Ten girls
wished to continue study. three preferred
quiet life at home, one wished to be a
missionary. another a doctor. and third a
nurse. Yet only one reply could be con-
sidercd in the slightest degree encouTa GiBg

who behold their fairest ideals N the IN

CHILDISH OBEDIENCE.

TT HAS been said that obedience is a
child's religion; and with tiny children
this is most true. 1t is the first
lesson baby has to learn, and Happy
is that mother who, realizing this, be-
gins the lesson before the little one is
a month old, intoxicating prompt, unques-
toning obedience on every possible occasion,
until her boy grows up firm and determined
in character, possessing that gift which is
worth much more than high birth or
wealth, the power to obey his own will.

or nine bales Of cotton belonging to DIFF
ferent persons were destroyed by fire on
last Thursday night. The colored public
school house in the same neighborhood
was burned on the Saturday night before.
There is but little doubt that both of the
fires were of incendiary origin and the
result of feud on the part of two fac
tons of the colored people in the ap-
pointment of a teacher for the public
school.
r. The cotton receipts are falling off rap
idly, and the public ginneries, which have
been crowded beyond their capacities,
have caught up, and are not ginning by
one-half as much cotton as they were a
few days back. There are a few farmers
in this section who will make as much
cotton as they did last year. but the ma
jOrity will make less although the acre
age was increased. The drouth contin-
ues, and interferes with the planting of
small grain.
