There is No Time For Hating.

There is no time for hating in this bright
world of ours,
Let us gather the roses, the sweet, frag-
rant flowers
OF life, while the thorns we cast gladly
aside,
AS our barque DER the sea of life softly
glides;
There is no time for hating, let US learn
TO forgive
Deep wrongs unredressed, Whlle on earth
we do live:
Let us try to forget all the misery and woe
That others have brought Us, nor ask why
It's SO.
Forget. oh! forget, the dark days of sor-
row,
And peace may be ours, with the dawn Of
the morrow;
Forgive and forgett sweet words that will
fill
The heart with deep JOY, with ecstacy
Our souls with delight that will ne'er
bring regret,
IF we only can learn to forgive and forget:
There is no time for hating, 1t is better
to speak
Kind words to the erring than their ruin
TO seek.
Life's span is too brief. then nurture not
hate
In the breast. lest forgiveness comes too
late,
For the one who has sought forgiveness to
win,
Whose soul would be free and spotless
from sin:
There is no time for hating If we hope
to reach heaven,
Then let us forgive as we hone TO be for
given. MRS. NELLIE BLOOM.

The amateur photographer who has
not a ruby lamp for use in the devei-
oping room or closet may envelop the
bulb of an electric light with red
bag shade, with the same result as to
workmanship, an entire freedom from
smoke, and also a much stronger and
Steadier light.
A handsome three-fold screen, about
two feet high, is utilized by its owner to
hold photographs gathered during a
Journey in Scotland. 1t is covered with
one of the clan plaids, in rich blues and
green's, and is filled in symmetrical ar
rangement with landscapes, historical
buildings and the noble faces of Scottish
heroes. The idea is suggestive and
adaptable to other lands, periods, or as
sociation Of events.
Silver corn-hoppers seen at the big
open fireplaces of country houses seem
rather extravagant, but are not unrea-
They are handsome affairs, usually hav-

handle, with silver ring in the end for
a hanger.
While maple sugar is new. it will be
found that, grated it serves as a most
delicious hard sauce for hot puddings.
1t is so soft and moist that the grating
process does not granulate 1T, as hap

is quickly converted into smooth, COM
pact sauce.
Russian women and japanese men are
said to be the most skilful workers with
the needle in decorative effects that the
world holds.
Chocolate stains on fine napery are, II
should be remembered, as needful of
prompt attention as are wine stains.
Cold water should be first poured over
them. then with the cloth stretched
across a bowl or soup plate, they may be
treated with boiling water fresh from
the tea-kettle. The important point In
treating any stain upon linen is prompt
ness.
Careful housekeepers slip long,
round cover, open at both ends, over the
feathers of a good duster, and keep 1t
standing, brush uppermost, when not
in use The cover is simply a narrow,
deep cuff of ticking, hemmed top and
bottom This not only keeps the duster
from getting dusty, but preserves the
spring and life of the feathers. 1t is the
care and not the use of utensils that
determines their length of service.
A sensibly planned library is COM
pletely lined with bookcases to the hight
of a rather tall wainscoting, with no
shelves running further up the wall, SO
that every book may be easily reached,
and portable steps-that library bug
bear which has kept many a good book
in retirement-need never be brought
into requisition.
The study of domestic science by
young women in Germany includes the

What Italy's King Gives.

King Humbert's generosity in charit-
able works is said to be fabulous. A
petition hardly ever remains without
an answer. His majesty spontaneous
ly gives presents to those persons to
whom he does not wish to grant sub
sides. These presents are generally
of two knds-a golden clock with the
royal arms or brooch set in dia-
monds His jeweler supplies him eacn
year with five hundred clocks and one
thousand brooches. King Humbert
never goes to the theater save on the
occasion of an official solemnity. lie
