In Livingston.

Livingston, May 5.-Friday evening
Hefferlin's opera house was the scene
of revelry in which the veterans of '61
and those who were girls in those DAYS
capered as nimblv to the enlivening
strains of music as when Johnny came
marching home from the sanguinarv
conflict waged between those who wore
the blue and their brothers of the
South. The festivities seemed to bring
back the days of joy and evenings of
pleasure that marked the return of the
travel-stained and war-worn survivors
of that awful struggle. and those who
participated in the pleasures of the
dance Friday evening rejoiced at the
contrast between those days of dark
ness and the present hour The affair
was in charge of the Grand Army of the
Republic and the Woman's Relief Corps

A good story comes from an up-coun-
try mission station at the Cape. The
occasion was native wedding. and. as
usual, the bride was attired in white
hat, white dress and white shoes, but
great surprise was occasioned by the
fact that she wore black gloves. The
native women on such occasions try to
be quite la mode, and there was a
good deal of inquiry about the girls
departure from the usual custom of
dressing entirely in white. The mystery
was explained when she told the clergy
mans wife that she had studied an
English fashion paper, and had there
read that the custom now was to wear
flesh colored gloves!
A certain curate was of a painfully
nervous temperament and in conse-
quence was constantly making awk-
ward remarks-intended as compl-
ments-to the bishop and others. Hav-
ing distinguished himself in an unusual
degree during a gathering of clergy at
an afternoon tea at the bishops palace,
he was taken to task for his failing by
a senior curate. who was one of his
companions on the way home. Look
here. Bruce said the senior decidedly,

keep quiet instead of making your asin-
Inc remarks? I am speaking to you

pamphlet form to all federated clubs
during the first term of Mrs. Ellen NJ
Henrotin's presidency of the general
federation. Since then "Childrens day.
has occupied a conspicuous place en-
many club calendars. This is the sea-

experience has proved to the thought

of social days are sure to advance the
best interests of the club:

direct effort should be made to bring
1t into sympathetic contact with the
home. If the mother always brought
home from the club something that APP
pealed to youthful minds, this would
tend to make her children become more
and more interested in it. She should
pass on her newly acquired knowledge
TO the rest of the family, thus fixing
1t in her own mind and testing the ac-
curacy of her conception of the subject

children.
Members of clubs should have the
privilege of occasionally taking young
girls to regular meetings. Clubs might
easily provide an annual Chidren's
day, when young people could be pres
ent by formal invitation. The pro-
gramme on this day should consist of
talks rather than papers, and it should
be varied by music and recitatons

WHEN DAYS WORK IS OVER.
Mutual Pleasures and RecreasiorA os
Husband and Wife In
the Home.

s'If wives and sisters would try tc
supply something restful and quiet on
the arrival of the man of the family
from his daily work, might not much Of
the hopelessness and the discomfort of
home life be done away with 2" ''Wom-
en- work hard all day, too" was the
answer, "and they are just as tired at
evening time. You cannot expect a
miracle from them" But it seems to
some of us that just such things can be
expected of them, and that We're the
miracle performed the hopelessncss of
existing conditions would vanish.
The beginning of the miracle might
be brought about if women, no matter
how busy they were, nor what had hap
pened during the day, would arrange
to spend an hour in some sort of recrea-
tion with their husbands every evening.
This recreation might take any form,
from quiet companionship, as the wife
sewed or knitted beside her husband as
he smoked, to pleasant work upon some
particular hobby which she had taken
up because it was interesting to her

anything in the form of outdoor life
after the supper. walking or taking part
in some game with him. The duties of
the two are bound to be of interest TO
both. 1t is the pleasures and recrea-
tons of both which require study be-
fore they can become of common inter-
est and it is part of the wife's field to
give sufficient thought to these matters
SO that they may become of practical
use.
The miracle might go even step
farther. for the wife or daughter could
cultivate some one pursuit or interest
of her own, throwing into it her enthu.
siasm. finding in it refreshment. and
making of 1t an object by which the
sympathies and interest Of her husband
or brother would be aroused. This is
only suggestion, but it has it's sig
niticance, because it can be tried in
any home. because whatever is done
with this purpose sincerely in view is
just so far step, and good step, in
the right direction, and because any
wife or any sister may fit its apElica-
ton to her own case and start at once
to produce some little result.-Harper's
Bazaar.

How to stick In Hntpins.

With the hair dressed low, an elastic
can be substituted; but in the case of
a coil worn high up, two pins must be
used. Let them be of moderate length,
and take the trouble to run them in
among the trimming of feathers, so that
bare bit of straw is not damaged and
left exposed to view another time. The
point should pass through the hair on
the top of the head and just penetrate
the opposite side of the hat, so that
it is fixed firmly, though the pins re-
main invisible. When the hat or bon
net is lavishly trimmed this course is
easier, naturally, but sailor hat, with
its plain band, can be treated in the
same way, the pin going across just
above the ribbon.-Woman's Life.
