emotion. The moral effect of so much
sensational reading is frequently some
thing to be ~grievously d~eplored, and as
to the influence upon the intellect,
many persons attribute their loss of
memory to this alone. 1t seems almost
unnecessary to state that one who is
a habitual and confirmed novel reader
VIII soon cease to possess a trained or
cultured mind, no matter how gifted
an intellect was given him to begin
with. To the brain thoroughly besot-

even less ~pretentious china, strung on
wires and arranged in rows on hang
ing shelves. The sideboard is spread
with fringed damask doilies, and set
with the treasured silverware and cut
glass. In the china closet-one with
swinging doors and dark velvet Innings
is displayed the choice china. The
contents must be arranged with care.
Do not place together the heavier and
daintier ware, but grade them gently,
so as to give the best effects. Between
meals the table should be spread with
a blue and white denim cover, set with
the fern dish. This adds a homelike
touch to the room and destroys the
formality which a set table gives.

Scarfs and COverIets.

49, AA
Some new fancies in toilet scarfs and
pin cushions seen lately were a de-
light to the eye. The prettiest one
was of boiling cloth, in each corner of
which was a beautiful conventionalized
design appliqued in green satin. Grace
full spr. IS of wild roses formed the
border, the lovely pink blossoms run
ming over OF the green saLIn. The pin
cushion matched the scarf and both
were lined with white satin. Another
set, not quite SO dainty, but far more
practical, was of white linen, with the
corners appliqued in pink linen and an
embroidered border of charming de-
sign. Nothing in the way of table
spreads is half so pretty as the fas-
cinating Bulgarian productions. The
odd neutral colors-drabs, browns, dull
yellow, reds and blues, with here and
there a dash of black-are combined in
such a way in the striking Russian
designs as to give the most pleasing
and artistic effect. The work is sim
pie, and n can buy a stamped spread,

We Walk Apart.


We walk apart! About me glows
The sunset sky of liquid rose,
For you the dawn of coming day
Is gliding all the eastern way.
We walk apart! The shadows grow;
Before them fades my sunset glow,
For you a sky of morning light
Beams fair and glad with sunshine
bright.
We walk apart AS come the stars
From out the night-sky's feecy bars,
The darkness falls-yet show the

OF all my happy old day dreams.
We walk apart; we walk apart!
The words keep signing in my heart.
Through all the years that loom before
Apart we walk for evermore,

Graphic Picture of Bombay by
Prince BOjidar.
"A distinguished foreigner. Prince Boz
adar Karageorgevitch, gives a graphic
picture of the city of Bombay during
the last terrible plague. The streets
were silent. In the bazaars there was
no shouting of voices, NO bargaining.
A few people would stand about the
stalls and examine the goods, but the
seller I'VE seemed to care.
1t is afternoon. Suddenly there is a
CHATTER of tom-tOms and rafting of a S
tanetS. AHindu funeral is passing by.
The dead lay stretched on a bier, his
face painted and horrible, with dread
fui scarlet cheeks covered with Wreaths
of jasmin and roses. A man walks
before h corpse, carrying a jar Of
burning charcoal to light the funeral
pile.
A MOhammedan funeral now. The
body was in a coffin, covered with red
stuff sparkling with gold thread. The
bearers aud mOuTners chanted an al
u'cst cheerful measure as they n rched
very slowly to the burial ground by
abe seaside, where the dead rest under
spreading banians and Towering Jas

Then a Parsee woman stopped my
servant to ask if I were a doctor.
IN doctor? L cannot say" replied
-Abibulla, but the sahib knows many
aIings."
The woman's eye entreatcd me.
Would L not come? 1t would comfort
the sick man and help him, perhaps.
to die easily, if the gods would not
spare him.
At the door Of the house the sick
mans wife was washing a white robe.
IN which he would be dressed for the
grave on the morrow. The nearest
relative OF the dying must always
wash his garment, and the woman,
knowing that her husband had the
plague and was doomed, was required
by ritual to prepare for the burial
while her husband was vet living. Her
fGce wore a look of mute and fearless
resignation that terrified me.
The plagEe-stricken man lay on n
aow bed, struggling with anguish.
Large drops of sweat stood out on his
face, his throat was wrapped in wet
bandages ard he spoke with difficulty,
as in a dream:
"Pane, sGhib!" (water. sirD
Then he closed his eyes and fell

The Skin should Be Healthy.

"a ChAn SNOulu Ee 11eatGnys
The first essential to hat beauty of
complexion which we all envy in others
and seldom make an honest effort to
secure for ourselves is a healthy skin.
The camel's hair face brush is much
to be commended. To keep the face
healthy it must first be kept clean
and a vigorous rubbing with the brush
is much more effective for this than
simply washing the face with a cloth
or sponge. Besides, it increases the
circulation and invigorates the skin.
The face should be first thoroughly
scrubbed with soap and water, using
the brush freely. After that some good
preparatin Of skin food should be
rubbed in. If none other can be had,
take a teaspoon of thick sweet cream
Rub in thoroughly, rinse the face with
warm water and dry completely. The
skin will then be delightfully."- soft and
fresh. The daily bath is, of course, the
foundation of a good complexion. With
out 1t no woman can retain her fresh
ness very long. Exercise is another
essential. The languid young woman
who starts in life with a pillow glued
to her back may gain a certain reputa-
ton for delicate loneliness that will do
for awhile, but she will soon fade, like
flowers that are dainty but not vigor-
Gus. 1t is the athletic young m
that retains her youthful bloom.

The Cause Of Chapped Hand,.

Much of the discomfort experienced
from chapped hands in cold weather is
due to washing with inferior soap, the
ingredients being poisonous to the
skin. 1t Is therefore important to have
pure soap. If warm rain water and
Ivory soap are used in washing the
hands, they will be smooth and white
at all seasons. ELIZA r. PARKER.

Proner Handling of Bees.

If you know how to handle bees you
can earn good pay overhauling the
apiaries of farmers who are too busy in
spring and fall to put their colonies in
shape for the season. Many swarms
are worthless now that might bring
good profits to the owner if cleaned up
and perhaps combined with another.
Wormy hives and hives with old brood
might as well be burned or thrown in
the sea as to be kept in their present
condition. Let a man get a reputa ton
for knowing how to handle bees and
being willing to do it for others, and he
would not find time to fill his orders.
He would soon carry large stock Of
bees and bee goods as well as honey to
sell, and should make it all turn in good
profits.-Midland Farmer.

Shipment of Dressed Fowls.

1t is common saying that the mar
ket is never over-stocked with the best,
and this is probably correct. Whenever
the market is over-stocked it begins at
the poorest quality to reject. If the
market does not reject the low quality,
it at once reduces the price to point
below cost of production and market
ing. Therefore the only people that
stand chance of making money are
those that send to market good prod
ucts in good shape. In a way markets
are always over-stocked, except in
times of special scarcity. But the mar
ket is never over-stocked with choice
fowls. Great loss to the producers re-
suits from the manner in which
fowls are dressed and shipped to mar
ket. One man says that the guam tity of
fowls daily dressed and sent to market
in an unstable condition is enormous.

4 ABOUT BELGIAN HAREs.
try Hogan, It Is Now Claimed,
Ten Years Ago.

In answer to number Of inquiries
in regard to the Belgian hare, we
find, upon investigation, that the
breeding Of this animal in this coun-
try as an industry began about ten
years ago. The breeders are natural
" enthusiastic and possibly are too
optimistic in their view of the future
OF this constantly charging business.
It is claimed by them that no other
line Of breeding offers anything like
the profits that the breeding of the
Belgian hare does. Both the meat
and the hide are valuable. The cost
OF producing the meat, it is claimed,
IS not over five cents pound at the
most, and we have been Informed by
breeders in. the vicinity of Denver,
Col, that the meat in that market
sells from Is to IS cents pound.
The meat Of a young Belgian hare. is
highly extolled by those who are ac-
quainted with its quality, and all such
unite in saying thatSas, a toothsome
article of diet it cannot be excelled
by any meat that comes to our tables.
The hare is exceedingly prolific, the
doe sometimes producing IS to- so
young hares in the course of the
year, and does begin to breed at the
age of six months. ss
The food is that which is common
" eaten by sheep, and should be
variety which can readily be provid-
ed from oats, clover, roots, bread and
milk, etc. All the shelter that is
needed is an open shed that will
always be dry and must be clean.
Cleanliness in the hutch must be
maintained. Three by four or five
feet is large enough for hutch. The
nesting box, which must be provided
for each breeding doe, should be three
feet long and two feet in width and
height. a portion Of the cage should
be covered with wire netting. Cover
the bottom with fine straw. A litter
is fromSsix to q dozen. When about
two months old the young are weancd
and the sexes separated. The weight
of Belgian, sif pure bred, at ma
turity is from eight to ten pounds
