As for coverings there are charm.

well, as their flower effects are gay

be made of Priscilla silk in any Of

Among the striking novelties for
country homes is the Darby and Joan
chair, a low rocker for two, on the
one foundation. The wood of heavy
make is painted in a good tone of
forest green, the rush seats in bril-
liant tints Of red. These odd pieces
are severe in form without ornamen

heavy white pine. which is painted in

COUNTRY HOME COMFORTS.
How to Obtain some Very Pretty
hsuse and Piazza Effects at
Nominal Expense.

In furnishing a home a variety Of
pretty effects can be gained by small
seats which hug the corners closely.
Among the latest are those with a
single ornamental end Of fine etched
wood cut out in appropriate shape.
The couch is low, well cushioned
and equipped with some three or four
pillows Of any spring-like material
which matches the seat, while the un-
ornamented end is finished simply
with a frill that falls from the cush.

Finding Opportunities to DO Good.

Doing a little good is better than do
ing no good. But doing good as we
have opportunity is even better than
doing little good. for every one of US
has opportunity Of doing good in more
than one way, and usually to more
than one person, every day of our lives.
Therefore let US do good as we have
opportunity, and let us watch for OPP
portunities. Our power to find oppor-
tunities, and TO meet them. will grow
with its exercise. All of US can do a
great deal of goods. s. Times.

A SPIRITUAL TONIC.
Daily Exercise la the Practice of self
Denial to he strongly Rec
Ommended.

The doctrine that there is no use
of exercising self-denial unless some
worthy end is to be served by it. is
subject to the important qualification
that the habit of self-cOntrol is itself
an end worthy of any cost. John
Stuart Mill advises US every day to
refrain from doing something that
we want to do. to do something that
involves sacrifice and hardship for
the sake of strengthening the spirit.
Is not that as wise as to take regu-
lar exercise for the sake Of the body?
Much is said to-day about "the stren-
uous life" The intent of most of it
is toward producing a self-assertive.
pugnacious and rather brutal type Of
character. The true field for the eX-
ercise of the strenuous life is not in
our relation to other people. but in
our relation to ourselves. We are
our own worst enemies, and the cOun-
sci of Mil is exceedingly wise. It
does not differ much from that of
Paul. q Cor. 9:25-27) II may be
said that in every life opportunities
enough for the exercise OF self-de-
nial arise every day, where it is a
duty. That may or may not be so,
just as man may or may not get
physical exercise enough when about
his ordinary tasks. Even then it is
a good plan to bring new muscles
into play. A little Of the heroic that
we make for ourselves, not because
we have to. but because we want to
cultivate that mood is an admirable
spiritual tonic.-Boston Watchman.

MACHINIsTs MAY STRIKE.
shorter Working Hours and Better
Pay Among the Demands.

Chicago. April l3-rhe Tribune says:
The first move in what Is likely to be a
bitter fight between the International
association of Machinists and several
Of the railroads entering Chicago, has
been made in demands By the assOcia-
ton on the Chicago Great Western
railroad The demands call for a mini
mum scale of 30 cents an hour, short
enng Of the work day from ten to nine
hours and regulating the apprentice
system. The officials Of the railroad
company are expected to make a reply
within the next few days, II they re-
fuse to comply with the demands Of
the union all Of the 200 machinists In
the employ Of the company, the ma
jority OF whom are employed in the
shops at Oelwein, Iowa, will, 1t Is said
be called out.
Heretofore there has been no fixed
minimum scale II having ranged from
% to n cents. The demand for a nine
hour work day is in accordance with
the determination Of the machinists to
secure shorter working hours through
out the country and will include all
shops where union men are employed.
Fro a long time there has been much
dissatisfactionwith the apprentice sys-
tenn and II was decided at length TO
insist on certain changes.
While the machinists have delivered
their ultimatum only to the Chicago
Great Western the same demands, 1t
Is said, will be made on the other big
companies entering Chicago and prep
aration are being made quietly for'
making a fight TO secure them.
The officials Of the union have been
at work for some time organizing the
men In all the shops Of the several
roads and declare they have met with
sufficient success as to feel confident
Of their ability TO secure an enforce
ment OF their demands As In the case
OF the Chicago Great Western, the ma
chnists have had no written agree
ment with the roads and an effort will
be made to secure one.
The machinists also are preparing to
fight for a nine hour work day in all
the shops in Chicago, beginning on
May 20. and while the officers oS the
union say they think q victory will
come without serious trouble II Is gem
orally believed that strikes viii result
This, for the reason that at least three
fourths of the shops are not members
OF the Metal Workers Association, with
which the union has agreements. and
ii is known that several shops have
indicated that they would not grant
nine hour day
