has a tag in the middle of the upper end of the cuff and another on one of the up- per ends. To make the cuff fit properly each tag should be sewed on and not made a part Of the cuff. Still, this, compared with another matter. is minor considera- tion.
 "These cuffs are made in rights and lefts, and the difference between the two is almost as marked as the difference in gloves, and quite as much so as in shoes Yet most of the women who buy these cuffs allow themselves to be imposed upon by the clerks in every store of conse- quence from Tenth street to Twenty third. They don't see, until they get home, what the clerks have given to them.
 'And these girl clerks sell first out of a box of rights or lefts exclusively, and when that supply is exhausted take up the other side of the cuff question. Then, if they are women of discrimination, even if not of suspicion, in examining goods before they are done up, they will return to the store only to be told that that is the usual way of selling the cuffs, and that rights or lefts. as the case may be. can not be had. My friend went into ten stores in the retail shopping district the other day to find both rights and lefts of the same cuffs. In the last place she got them. but the tags were of the same piece of linen as the body of the cuffs, and make a perfect fit impossible.

The Blessings of the Nile.

From the beginning the Nile was ah ex- ceptional river. Its sources were unknown. There were those who thos.xk- that the Nile flowed down from heaven, that it welled up from streams that disappeared under the earth on another continent, or, at the very least that its springs were in accessible to man. There was rho such mystery about the Euphrates. From the remotest times it's sources seem to have been known by hearsay, if not by obser- vatfon, to the dwellers on the coast The Nile was benefcent even in its floods. The people learned to let the waters flow over their lands at the time of the inundation, and when they raised dikes and sunk canals and basins it was to let in the wa- ter, not to keep 1t out. The Euphrates also had it's floods, but these were destruc- tive. They scared the soft earth with ravines and swept-the fertile soil onward to build new lands along the edge of the Persian gulf. The people anticipated the overflow with dread. and their most ab- sorbing task was to restrain the river with in bounds. They became more intimate with the earth than their Egyptian con- temporaries. They learned how to mold the clay and to make their houses and the houses of their kings and their gods out of the material under their feet. The Egyp- tians learned something about brick man. ufacture, but they had no need to depend wholly upon that sort of building material It was easy for them to obtain stones, as their huge piles attest.

around they sent their sweethearts little gifts, behaving with as much freedom as the strict customs of those days allowed.
 From that time on the custom of ob- serving Saint Valentines Day has grown, and now this gift day Is almost a holiday It is- celebrated in the social world by gatherings and fin the trade world by a great variety of pretty tokens offered for personal gifts. X
 And so Saint Valentine Is not forgotten. though many hundred years have passed since then.
 :. It. would be impossible to tell how the custom of honoring Saint Valentine will change in the next hundred years. To- day you see the shops decked out with pretty tokens, satin trifes and all sorts of sweet smelling gifts. There are verse books written also for the day, and the windows are filled with trifes, costly and otherwise
 The etiquette of Saint Valentine gift has somewhat changed in the last thous- and years. At the beginning of the ninth century a valentine was a propsal of marriage, and consisted of a herd of cat tie for the very wealthy swain and a slain sheep for the poor one. Lovers in the warm countries sent gifts of wine and in the Orient they sent perfumes. for

lio ana ms exqu1site nunor VIII De eQualiy charmed with this.
 Howells presents life not as he thinks it ought to be, but as he thinks it is; not as he imagines it, but as he sees ft. He has quick eye for what is striking in indi- vtduals or In life; a shrewd insight into human motive, a truly American perception of the ludicrous, a natural gift of language and "a talent for crystalizing in a phrase or an epithet the essential attribute of any subject" and the latter quality is indeed rare one.
 Mir Howells' stories have no plots, no dents, yet they interest. Sometimes, how ever, his details are a little tiresone, but has not real life much prose in it? He has gift for making us see the individual, not as an individual merely, but as a mem- Der of society, and though he may some- times idealize his realism and make his personages little wittier and more prompt at repartee than people in real life. sure- ly we ought not to find fault on that ac- count His writings are all suggestive of a moral and intellectual atmosphere which distinguishes him in the school of realism from a great many other writers who take advantage of the term to depict only that which is low and rapulsive and the forbid den in human life. No one can possibly have read the works of Howells and not have admired the personality and fine na- ture of the man behind them. He is a novelist from the very love of 1t, filled with the love of truth and justice and charity, and every one who knows the man testifies to his unassuming kindliness and his gener osity to young writers, and even though he criticiZes. yet it is done with a gracious ness that leaves no sting behind.

estranged by harsh word. Tn thIs way Valentine came to be greatly loved.
 In those days the emperor was lord of all: and little did he like 1t when others became fayorites of the people. Conse- quentlS Claudius, when he saw Valentine walk through the streets with a crowd of people following and praising him, be- came very jealous, and sent word to the priest that he must leave the city of Rome.
 But Valentine had no intention of go- ing. He meant to stay and work there as long as the Lord spared him, and when he prayed nightly to his God in the heav- ems he prayed for the people who suf- fered so much from the oppression of the emperor.
 And so the popularity of Valentine grew.
 When Claudius saw that his command had no effect except to make the people like the priest the more, he determined to do away with him. H ordered him to be put to death, and one fine day, when the people arose and sought for him he was gone. He had been beheaded by or der of the emperor.
 Then the people were very sad.
 "TIe Is gone, but we can observe his birthday" they said. And so when the anniversary of his birth came around

 Va entnes originated with the saint af- ter hom they were named. They began nearly eighteen hundred years ago, when Saint Valentine was alive, and have con- tirued ever since, taking different forms in the different ages.
 Valentine was priest in the days of the Emperor Claudius. He was good, kind priest and treated the common people with much consideration. Above all he ' as gentle to them when they came to i'm about matters of the heart, and more tan once he brought together couples

they met secretly and gave each other little gifts. They called them Valentines. and the young, women, in token of love for him and each other, took the garters off their knees and exchanged them, garter for garter.
 After ten years they canonized valen- tine and placed his name along with those of the saints. And ever after that when the day came around, they called 1t Saint Valentines Day.
 Now, during his lifetime Saint Valentine had been very happy in love affairs, and had always assisted those who were in love troubles. Consequently the young men grieved for him as much as the young women, and when Valentines Day came

When young man asks father for his
daughters hand in marriage, if the father
is a wise one, he thinks of one thing equal
~ as important as the young mans morals,
social and business standing and intelli
Rence. A young man who suffers from ILL
health has no right to marry until his health
is restored. TO do so Is to commit crime
against the human race. While all diseases
may not be directly inherited, the consttu-
tional tendency 10 acquire them is inner
tied. If man is a consumptiVc, the
chances are that his children will have
weak, understood lungs, and a pre6isposi-
ton to acquire the same disease.

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

Climate and Crop Bulletin of th'
Weather Bureau, Washington Sec
ton, for the week ending Monday
June 18th.
SEATTLE, Wash, June II, 1898.
The week ending Monday, June
10, was characterized by unusually
Marm, dry weather. The only ex'
ception was Saturday, the 18th
which was cool and showery. The
average temperature Of the week
was fully eight degrees above the
normal. For six days ending with
the 10th, the temperature averaged
9 to ii degrees above normal, the
average temperature for night and
day being upwards of 70 degrees on
four days at Seattle, the maximum
reaching So degrees. East of the
mountains the maximum reached
81 degrees at lyle, 50 degrees at
Walla Walla, SO degrees at EIlens-
burg. and 81 degrees at CentervilIe.
The temperature fell more than 70
degrees from the 10th to 18th, and
the cool showers were very well
come.
The effect upon the crops was
good throughout the Western Sec
ton. Potatoes made very good
progress, and vegetables generally
grew faster than during any week
this season. Strawberries ripened
rapidly, and the yield was very
abundant. Considerable cutting of
clover was done. The crop is OF
average quality. Oats and hops
are reported as doing well.
In the Eastern Section the hot,
dry weather was of too long con-
tinuance, and in some exposed To-
calities has begun to damage wheat
by "flcing," when the change to
cool, shoYery weather came very
opportrneiy. A few more days of
the continued hot winds would have
ruined an immense amount of
wheat. Though some weak
stemmed wheat has been destroyed
it will probably be found, if the
cool, showery weather continues,
that the bulk of the crop is all
right. AS rule the reports state
that the wheat is doing nicely, par
ticularly spring wheat. In the
eastern part of Whitman and Spo-
kane counties there appears to be
moisture in the ground sufficient
for some time yet.
