Never Get Thirsty,

There are certain lucky creatures
which never feel the pangs of thirst.
for they are 50 constituted that drink
is unnecessary TO them and they never
swallow drop of water in their lives.
Among these animals are certain ga
zelles of the far east and the lamas of
Patagonia
Some naturalists believe that hares
never drink. but get enough LIQUID for
their needs IN the dew on the grass they
eat and II Is certain that in the London
geological gardens a paroquet lived
over half a century without once drink.

\ considerable number of reptiles
serpents, lizards and some batrachians
thrive in places In which there Is alb
solutely no water. In France in the
neighborhod of the LOsere there are
herds of goats and cattle which hardly
ever drink and which, nevertheless
produce the milk Of which the cele.
brated Roquefort cheese is made.

but the snow still fell and drifted bad

II looked this morning as though the
blizzard would continue all day, but at
10 o'clock there was breaking away
in the west, and finally the storm
ceased altogether, and the severest
blizzard since the memorable blizzard
OF March, 1883, came TO an end. The
wind blew at the rate Of SO to 80 miles

 There are few things more detrimen. tai to the general appearance of a room than paltry, insignificant mantelpiece, structure which is nothing but nar- row shelf upon supports, and simply answers the purpose of framing or fin ishing the fireplace without any attempt at the ornamental
 We arc most of us unfortunately fa- miliar with this unbecoming phase of the builders art, and our first desire is always to replace 1t by something in better taste and style, but too often the cost of so doing is a consideration, the property not being our own, and we are obliged to content ourselves by try ing ways and means of disgusting it's ugliness.
 Sometimes we try to tide over the difficulty by using draperies, but this treatment is not an unqualified success, as there is danger of the curtains catch ing fire, and they have also wonderful faculty for collecting dust. In bed room, however, a simple drapery just over the shelf, finished by pretty trimming, will often be an improve ment and is quite inexpensive. For the more important rooms it is often advisa- ble to use wooden casing, which is made to fit over the entire mantelpiece and has quite the appearance of a fix

The Woman Question.

The attempt to discuss the woman question as a separate and independent item in social and domestic affairs IS an egregious blunder, although one to which its perpetrators may not awaken in time to undo some of the mischief which their mistaken notions have done. An old philosopher likens the home and society to a wheel. The home is the hub; the spokes are the various inter ests which radiate from and center there. The rim corresponds to the mar riage relation which binds and consoll- dates the family and the household. Ii one spoke is imperfect, warped out of plumb or in any way incapable of ful- filling its entire mission the wheel IS, as a matter of course, not in proper working condition. The manufacturer who would send out a vehicle With spokes warped, twisted or in any way out of gear would be voted sorry work man, and the reputation of his establish ment would drop far below zero as soon as the fact became known. Nor would if benefit him ill any way to give spe- cial attention to the spokes on one slde of the wheel while he neglected or lg- nored the condition of those on the oth, or In fact. the more he painted and

polished these the worso the other ones would appear.
 AS long as human nature is built upon its present lines just so long there will be homes and firesides and families. This is part of the great plan of nature, and to attempt to ignore or do violence to it is to strike at the very heart of na- turo herself. The world is full of re- formers of various sorts, who are con tinually prating about living up to rules and regulations of their own making. They indulge ill ceaseless diatribes about curbing natural inclinations and re. forming the existing state of things. They forget or purposely disregard that which every close student of human na- ture knows to be the faet-that when man attempts to make laws ill conflict with those of the natural world he is infallibiy certain to destroy not only that which he attempts to make over or modify, but he strikes at the very in- tegrity of society itself.
 This important fact it seems to be out of the question to make the unwise iconoclast comprehend, even in the smallest degree. Literally run mad ir their enthusiasm over their pet fads, they go on exploiting what they see fit to term the woman question, and instead of creating the reform foi which their souls seem to long they find that they have created an antagonisn between the sexes and sown dissensioI where possibly they meant to harmonizt and unite the sexes. It is not in the in tention but tho actual results of sucl work that the danger lies. Men and women should never feel that there k any cause of antagonism or dissension as in reality there is none. New York Ledger.
