Folly of MOrbfdness.

New York Tribune.
1t is a great mistake for any one TO allow
himself to develop unsociable tendencies,
for the results are often far reaching and
grow beyond the control Of the individual,
who, partly from Indifference and partly
from inherent laziness, makes no effort to
keep his friends or enlarge his social ac-
quaintanee. Shyness, too, is often the cause
of a person holding himself aloof from the
world, and also morbidness, the latter be-
ing the worst sequestration of all, as it
often results in complete isolation and
estrangement from every one. Unsociabil-
ity is like the rift within the lutte. 1t begins
so gradually disinclination to leave
home, a half-felt dislike of encountering
new people-and so, little by little, and al
most unconsciously, the feeling is fostered
until 1t becomes so strong that it is almost
impossible to break through the reserve it
has built up between the recluse and his
kind.
a person who begins by being merely un-
sOciable often ends by becoming what is
m known as ''cranky"-and a num-
Der of examples might be cited in every
ones experience TO show how easy it is to
let ones self drift into eccentricity.
Miss A., for instance, was intended by
nature TO be a charming woman, but she
has so narrowed her world that she now
fairly bristles with prejudices and has
practically alienated all her friends. She
has wealth, position and personal attrac-
ton, and yet her sphere of influence does
not extend beyond her servants by reason
Of her morbid dread of people, which has
grown pom her until it has become second
nature.
Where withdrawal from the world and its
interests affects others -estrangement from
ones kind is still more to be deplored. and
it becomes positively wrong where young
children are influenced by it. Mr.. X
and his family are a case in point. The
father, after the death of his wife, induIg-
ing in his natural propensity for seclusion
TO such an extent that his son and laugh
tiers, who have probably inherited his ten
denotes and have made no effort to over
come their natural shyness, have their
whole lives warped in consequences. HI
saying in Holy Writ that "It is not good
for man TO be alone" Is true in more senses
than one. a healthy nature Graves COM
partnership, and any feeling that stands in
the way of such development should be
overcome before it becomes too difficult to
conquer.

FOR FEMININE READERS
CONVENT-MADE LACES ARE MAR
Wells OF ARTISTIC NEEDLEWORK.
An English Scientist Starts n Boom

ness a Bad Fault.

Some Of the current laces are marvels
of art, writes Lillian NJ. Siegfried, in Good
Housekeeping. Only within the past three
years, however, have the sisters been max
ing the laces with braids, but so apt are
they as pupils that they far outrival their
worldly sisters. Many of the laces are
crocheted, a beautiful gown Of the carna-
ton and chrysanthemum pattern being
greatly admired. A simple wheel was first
made, filing the wheel by throwing two
stitches over the needle. drawing a stitch
loosely through two stitches, then W
again; repeating this until the entire wheel
was full. Between each chain, around the
wheel, a picot was made by making three
plain crochet stitches, very finely executed
putting them in one. Repeat the wheeling
around the circle again, as first described,
then the picot finish. being careful to have
the flower smooth and fiat. The design
can be made as large as desired; it adds
very much to the beauty of the gown to
graduate the flowers, having the first row
very large, the second a size smaller, until
it comes to the body of the gown. where
plain network, brides, and an occasional
flower occur; although just a founce Of

by crocheting three or four stitches. in a
chain, then three very tight fine stitches,
for a picot, sinking them in one stitch
again, then picot.
The chief productions in the art line are
wonderful hand-run laces of wash, blonde
or fine silk ret, run in a pattern. This is
close. fine work, depending entirely on the
accuracy of the eye, the weaver counting
the meshes. The edge of these laces is
made with a fine crochet needle. A dotted
lace is made by dotting in pattern dia-
monds, stars or circles, a French knot, or
running in and out Of the net butterflies,
bow knots, lovers knots, buds, blossoms.
The edge to form a diamond is run in and
out the points with a silken thread, leaving
a tiny space between; buttonhOle the lower
edge very finely and into this crochet a
tiny half wheel. A solid silk lace is made
by running the blonde solidly in one direc-
ton in and out, crossing the material
again. alternating the stitch. Between
| squares a tiny French knot adds very much
TO the appearance.

Engaging the Help.
Philadelphia Telegraph.

Philadelphia Telegraph.
In selecting a servant two extremes must
be avoided-too much knowledge and too
little.
The girl who claims to know everything
viii as a rule be opinionated and insist
upon her own methods even if antagonistic
to given Instructions.
1t must be remembered, on the other
hand, that entire ignorance is a great trial,
and unless the mistress has an ~inexhaust-
ible supply of patience it will not be wise
for her to select a 'greenhOrn."
1t is not surprising that a girl newly ar
rived in this country should be puzzled at
the system of work and its many .appI-
anceS ''all Creek to her. and it is not
sensible to expect from these girls neatness
and quick adaptation of ways of refinement,
nice cooking and intelligent service.
In engaging a girl everything should be
plainly stated to her, the number In 1am-
lily, the days appointed for certain duties,
the privileges allowed her and the wages
paid, etc.
If she asks these questions we think her
impertinent and exacting. and yet they are
of vital Importance to her.
What is the usual course pursued by the
mistress? Endless inquiries are made in
regard to her last place." why she LEFT
and what she can do, while really all that
can be Of the least value is a reference Tor
honesty and neatness. What has been eX-
cellent service in that last place" may be
unsatisfactory in the new home.
To try her is the only way, and great
forbearance on both sides is necessary dur
ing this test period.
Endeavor TO select the help that will be
most likely to be contented under the con-
ditions that are to be offered to her, for
contentment, after all, is the secret of
faithful service.
