Eczema
All Her Life.

Mr.. z. D. Jenkins, of Lithonia, Ca,
says that his daughter, Ida, inherited a
severe case of Eczema, which the usual
mercury and potash remedies failed to
relieve. Year by year she was treated
with various medicines, external appli-
cations and internal remedies, without
result. Her suferings were intense,
and her condition grew steadily worse.

The Critic Answered.

An acute critic calls attention to
what he styles an inelegance in lead
ing article Of The Pilot. 1t is that in
which tie following sentence occurs ::
"And Paul said, But was born so. )"
We are sorry it is inelegant, but it must
stand as it is, for it happens to be the
exact words of the New Testament,
chapter xxi, verse rs, CT the Acts Of the
Apostles. TIC Pilot never tries to i'm
prove upon the language Of holy writ.
Some afternoon when we have reformed
all the wrorgs in the vorld and point
ed out all the faults Of all our neighbors
for their re1ormation we may sit down
and revise the New Testament, but it
will not he this year nor next yeal
Somewhere along about 1898 we shall
inauguIate these important reforms =

SienkieWicz.

Father Barabasz Of Baltimore who
visited his countryman, Henry Sienkie-
wicz, not long ago, says in the Balti-
more Sun that the Polish novelist IS
very sim pie in his manners and israther
silent when In society, but he is q good
listener to good story He is Of medi-
uln size, rather dark and is inclined to
badness, with hint Of gray over tho
temples. The name is pronounced Chen
kay-yeetoh, with the accent ca the sec
ond syllable and the CHI pronounced as
in child. His home is now at Warsaw,
though much Of his time is spent in
travelling and in getting material for
his literary work. He has been married
twice The death of his first wife &C.
CURED when he was writing "Pan
Michael" and it's somber tone is traced
back to that event.

The Basis Of Credit.

A mans past record, with but few
exceptions, should determine the CUES
ton of his eligibility fer credit il the
future. If he has Lecn slow pay in the
past, he will probably be slow pay IL
his next purchases. If he has been
prompt and satisfactory, he will likely
be the sane again. AS ali instance l.
might mention q case which recently
came under my notice. A trader who
had gradually got to lie slow and unsat-
isfactory was compelled to assign. His
failure was not due to any misfortune,
such as fire or food, but seemed the
natural consequence CT his Incompetence
and lack Of management. a wholesale
house which had been supplying him
lost heavily, but compromised, and as
he continued they still sold him, but CT
80 days timo. For awhile he promptly
attended to his payments, but after a
time be got slower and slower, and as
he was liberal buyer and his purchases
were allowed to accumulate he SOON
owed bill far larger than his means
would warrant. Is this dragged along
LOT some years q CGl1 isEOAi4Se WAS grant
ed upon this indebtedness also. Still BE
chung to his old creditor and again Or
dered goods, promising to send the
money within 80 days Eut his past
record was too much even for so lenient
creditor He was told plainly that 30
would get no more goods on credit and
that if hs ordered anything cash must
accompany the order in every case.
Now, man of this stamp IS a positive
detriment to III Who PAYS lis bills.

A Great POIyyiOt,

Solomon Caesar Malan habitually
conversed with his children in Latin,
but on his deathbed, when Solomon,
his son, began to recite psalm in the
familiar Vulgate OF his youth the dy-
ing man, scholar to the last, muttered
"Non tia, non tia! Hebraice;'' so the
son repeated it in Hebrew.
He could. for that matter, just as
well have said it in Coptio or Chinese,
for to him all tongues came naturally.
At IS he could write in Is languages,
oriental and European, and among his
published works we find translations
from the Arabic, Persian, Syriac, Eth
opic, Hebrew, Coptic, Armenian, Geor-
gian, Mongol, Chinese, Korean, Japa-
nese, Greek, Russian, Welsh and Goth
ic. He is said to have learned to speak
Armenian fuently in a fortnight, and
he preached in Georgian to Georgian
congregation i'll the cathedral Of Kutais.

eff husbands only knew, or, if know
ing, only cared, how very much their
words and manners affect the tempera-
ture of the home world, they would
never by word or deed leave it en-
shrouded in GLOOM" argues Mrs. A.
M. Marriott in an article entitled
"Praise Your Wife, in Woman's Home
COMPANION. "To most wives the hus-
band is the sun around which every
thought revolves. There is scarcely an
instant in which his presence is not felt
as she goes about her work or even when
at rest. If she is preparing the meals,
the way John likes this or that or some
remark he has made about some article
of food is recalled to mind. If she looks
about her, she sees his hats and coats
hanging on the hooks, and the hats IN
variably wear the same expression
Johns face wore when he left in the
morning--a jolly, good humored look II
he went away pleasant; if angry,
gruff, defiant, attend to your own busl-
ness air takes the place of the SO lately
gentle pliable shapes in felt and fairly
bristle with wrath over some trif1e, but
still enough to obscure the sun in the
little world for many weary day, per-
chance, ere it is seemingly forgotten.
"There is no true woman but will re-
pay her husband over and over again
for kind, thoughtful treatment. He is
ready to call her childish. and she may
seem so to him; but one thing is sure
a woman never forgets.
Cali little deeds of love or thought
| fitness sown by his hand yield certain
and abundant harvest She may love
her home better than any other spot Oh
earth, yet she sometimes gets so weary
of the daily routine of never ending
duties that fall to her lot that she can
not help an occagicnal feeling of envy
for those who have more time for recre-
alton, for going abroad, for all the little
things dear to the heart of every woman,
but which the stern hand of duty most
effectually debars her from enjoying.
Still, for all that, she would not for the
whole world exchange places, even II
she could, with any other woman, leav-
ing home and Jchn-dcar old John-as
the price of her freedom from care.
eff your wife has been faithful and
true wife to you, tell her SO. Do hot
think it lowers your manliness any tc
let her know that she still has a place
in your affections. She has toiled carly
and late for you and yoUr children,

denial has grown to be her motto. Il
takes but little from her loved ones K

word Of praise now and then as bel
just reward, and OF far more value Il
her starving heart than gold. There art

s%vo ,aer, tojled side by side from sun to sun,
And both were poor;
10th sat with children when the day was dole
About their door.
One saw the beautiful in crimson cloud
And shining moon;
The other, with his head in sadness bowed,
Made night of noon.
One loved each tree and flower and singing
bird
On mount or plain;
No music in the soul Of one was stirred
By leaf or rain.
One saw the good in every fellow man,
And hoped the best;
The other marveled at his masters plan,
And doubt confessed.
One, having heaven above and heaven below
Was satisfied;
The other, discontinued, lived in woe,
And hopeless died.
