When Fanny Mendelssohn died her
brother Felix fell forward fainting; for
a month he would neither speak, read,
write nor play the plano, and shortly he
died. He confessed toward the end he
had no wish to live since he could not
see his sister again in Life, and he was
buried beside her. whom he seemed to
have loved more tenderiy than wife or
children. AS an admirable musician this
sister was of inestimable value to Mem
delssohn, and her few compositions, pref
~ bits of fancy, he loved to play as much
as his own great productions.
No wit less noble than these other alb
sorbingly devoted and unseifish sisters
was Henrietta Renan, to whose cheerful
resignation of marriage for his sake her
great brother Ernest testffles- Though
an honest man offered Henrietta his
heart and home, with all tnat the pros-
poets of wifely dignity and maternal ties
must have meant to such a woman. she
without hesitation laid the whole offer
Ing on the altar of sisterly fidelity.
Dorothy Wadsworth was the woman
who persuaded her brother TO devote his
life to poetry, and as a guarantee of her
faith in him she bore all her life with his

and every penny over and above the barest
necessities of a soldiers life went to the
sister in Scotland. She was never a bril-
liant nor a beautiful woman. but the hero
of the Crimea and the Indian mutiny
gave her all the faithful affection that
often goes to mother or wife. He wrote
to her. among the horrors of the Indian
war he remembered her needs, and she,
crippled old woman, sat by his bedside
when he died. She lived unmarried as he
had done. and inherited a comfortable
fortune at his death.
Byron, like Lord Clyde, always wrote TO
his sister on the eve on any perilous un-
dertaking, and among the ten different
versions of his deathbed remarks his sis

nose.
ANY woman who has read the Vicar
OF Wakefield would give much TO know
Just what herbs and simples were used
In the face wash that Mrs. Primrose
and her bonny daughters were at such
pains to make over the fire. Both DANES
and demoiselles of those times were IA
nous for their fine compilations, and it
is well worth while making a study of
their means to this desirable end. Here is
recipe straight from old England that
sounds as if it might be a compound like
the famous Primrose Wash" 1t is far
more delicate than cold cream, cocoa
butter or any of the emollients now so
much in vogue, and when used over night
all traces of it should disappear before
morning.
Cucumbers will be plentiful for some
time yet, and as they enter largely into
the composition of this preventative it
would be well to prepare enough just
now to last the Winter.
To make, put cup of good cream in
small saucepan over the fire and stir
until 1t boiis; allow to cool and reheat.
Do this three times. While hot stir in
the juice of two lemons and two table
spoonsful OF cucumber juice This may
easily be pressed from this vegetable by
cutting in bits the size of half lemon
and pressing in the squeezer in the same
way as lemons. Stir in also two table
spoonsful of glycerine and one OF honey
(The former may be omitted If It does not
agree with the skin) At the last add
few drops of any nice scent. The sauce
pan should be kept In hot water until
the ingredients are well mixed. then re-
moved and the contents stirred every few
minutes until perfectly cold. 1t is now
ready to be packed in small pots like
those that come with extract of beef,
and covered with paper dipped in the
white Of an egg, to become alright. The
face should be washed with good soap
and hot water, shading of to cold, over
night, and this ointment carefully mas
saged into the skin.
When glycerine is omitted use sweet
oil instead.

BRAVE PIONEER WOMEN.
Their Courage in the Days of Indian
Warfare


II Is told that at the siege OF Bry-
ants Station, near Lexington, hy-' the
women were called upon for an un-
usual display of courage 1t was in the
days of Indian warfare. The garrison
was supplied with water from a spring
at some distance from the fort. and
near this spring a considerable force Of
Indians had been placed in ambush.
Another party. in full view from the
fort, had been ordered 10 open fire at
given time, with the hope of enticing
the besieged to an engagement outside
the walls, giving the ambushed force
an opportunity for storming one of the
gates. The experienced men in the gar
rison felt satisfied that Indians were
concealed near the spring. but were
sure they would not show themselves
until the firing had begun on the oppo-
site side of the fort.
The need of water was urgent, and,
seeing but one way to get it, the men
summoned all the women. Explaining
TO them the circumstances in which
they were placed. and the improbable
fty that any injury would be offered
them until firing had begun on the
other side of the fort. they begged them
to go In body to the spring and bring
UP each a bucketful of water Some OF
the women. as was natural had no
relish for the undertaking. and asked
why the men could not bring water as
we'll as themselves. observing that they
were not bullet-proof and that the In
dians made no distinction between male
and female scalps.
To this 1t was answered that the wo-
men were in the habit of bringing water
every morning to the fort: and that if
the Indians saw them engaged as usual
1t would induce them to think their am
buscade undiscovered: and that they
would not unmask themselves for the
sake of firing at few women. when
they hoped. by remaining concealed a
few moments longer to obtain complete
possession OF the fort That II the men
should go down to the spring, the Tndi-
ans would Immediately suspect that
something was wrong. would despair of
succeeding by ambuscade. and would in
stantly rush upon them. follow them into
the fort. or shoot them down at the
spring.
The decision was soon made. \ few of
the boldest women declared their readi-
ness to go. and. the younger and more
timid rallying in the rear Of these vete-
rams they all marched 10 the spring with
in blank shot of so Indian warriors
Some of the girls betrayed symptoms of
terror, but the married women In gem
eral moved with steadiness and COM
posure that completely deceived the In-s
dians. Not a shot was fired The women
were permitted to fill their buckets. and,
though their steps became quicker and
quicker on their return. dsgenerating into
a rather unmiiitary celebrity yet not more
than one-fifth of the water was spilled,
and the garrison was supplied
