wAsH1NeroH's RULES OF BEHAVIOR
Written When Thirteen Years Old.

Written When Thirteen Years Old.
When you speak of God or His at
tributes let it be seriously, in rever-
ence. Honor and obey your natural
parents although they are poor.
In your apparel be modest and en-
deavor to accommodate nature rather
than to procure admiration; keep to
the fashion of your equals, such as
are civil and orderly with respect to
time and place.
Think before you speak; pronounce
not imperfectly o bring out your
words too hastily, but orderly and dis
tinctly.
Undertake not what you cannot per-
form, but be careful to keep your
promises.
Be not tedious in discourse; make
not many digressions nor repeat often
the same manner of discourse.
Let your countenance be pleasant,
but in serious matters somewhat grave.
Associate yourself with men of good
quality, if you esteem your reputation
for it is better to be alone than in
bad company.
Be not hasty to believe flying re-
ports to the disparagement of any.
Be not apt to relate news if you
know not the truth thereof. In dis
coursing of things you have heard
name not your author always. A Sc,
cret discover not.
Every action in company ought tc
be with some sign of respect to those
present.
In the presence of others, sing MOI
10 yourself with a humming noise, MOI
drum with your fingers or feet.
Sleep not when others speak; 81
not when others stand; speak no
when you should hold your peace; Jos
not the table or desk on which anothe.
reads or writes; lean not on any one
Read no letters, books or papers IL
company, but when there is a necessl
" IOr DONG II, you LhuoG aoN
Be not curious to know the affairs O
others, neither approach to those tina
speak in private.
Make no show of taking great de
light in your victuals; feed not wit
greediness; lean not on the table
neither find fault with what you eat.
Be not forward, but friendly an
courteous; the first to salute, hear an
answer; and be not pensive when 1T
line to converse.
Show not yourself glad at the mis-
fortune of another, though he be you
enemy.
Labor to keep alive in your brea'
that little spark of celestial fre-col
science.

The Pathfinder does not attract.
There is something about his face, gait
and manner, as well as about his tenn
per and words, hat repels. Sweetness,
g~entleness and charity are lacking in
his composition, and people fight shy
of him. Men become a bane to them
selves and to society when dominated
by a critical, carping and harsh spirit.

afforded and severa. thousand people
passed by the casket TO take last

posed on a catafalque at the foot of
the life size statue of Mr.. Rouss, and
at the head were several tables piled
with beautiful floral tributes the Off
erings from friends. societies and or

shades and qualities of fur are used
though squirrel is the leader of all 1t is
not particularly pretty, but looks well
on almost all shades of cloth, velvet or
silk. And all gowns, whether for street,
home, evening or reception wear, may be
trimmed with fur. Dull red cloth of not
a very dark shade looks especially well
trimmed with brown or black fur.
Velvet is especially swagger when fur
trimmed. A dark gray velvet had the
skirt edged with broad band of light
gray fur, above which was passemen-
terie of green and black chenille, the
bolero similarly treated, and was very
handsome. Velvet street gowns when
trimmed with fur are very plain, depend
ing for impressiveness upon the hand
some furs and hat worn with them. The
stylish long fiat stoles edged with tails
that reach nearly to the feet are also SO
broad as almost to cover the front of the
gown for which they act as trimming
Fur is put on in bands or little medallions
outlined with braid or chenille, or else
outlines medallions of lace, silk or velvet.
Bands Of silk, satin or smooth cloth
often are outlined with very tiny fur
band. Lace gowns are richly trimmed
with fur, the fur running in and )ut as
through a beading. Jackets and coats
have revers or collars of fur, with large
fur cuff very often. Sleeve puffs Of fur
are new. All shades of velvet are trim

Methods of milking have much in
suence on the quantity Of milk given
By the cow. and some think that a
faulty method also affects the proper
ton Of butter fat in the milk. At a
receut meeting of the British Dairy
Association the subject was discussed
and. an interesting paper was read by
Primrose Mcconnell on the subject.
He described the stripping methods
as that in which the fingers are forci-
bly, drawn down the teat. sometimes
down with energy. as if the miIker
was drawing the milk down from the
horns of the cow It the teats are
scratched in the least O. chapped this
rough process opens and keeps irrf-
tated the broken skin so that there will
be a considerable soreness. inevitably
resulting in decrease OF the yield.
The squeezing method is much the
better. The operator grasps the teat,
and. the arms and elbow moving,
squeezes it only, without any pulling,
and no cessation Of the sound. for the
stream Is started from one teat before
it is stopped to take a new hold at the
other The principal superiority of
this method lies in the fact that it
deals gently with the teat. so that
where there is tendency to soreness
the soTcs are not continually reopened,
and thus the animal stands more quiet
ly during the operation Sores heal up
more quickly, new ones are not form
ed, ana consequently the animal viii
be better mixer A cow that could
hardly be made to submit to the form
err method may stand quietly during
the latter.-New England Farmer.

Probably farmers will arrange for a
supply of homemade syrup. They will
plant sorghum for this purpose, also
some fOE feed. The annual production
of 25,O00,D00 gallons allows but third
of gallon for each inhabitant, which
is sufficient for about ten days needs.
Choice homemade syrup is much ap-
preciated. 1t saves, grocery bills and it
is pure goods.
A ton of sorghum should make fif-
teen to twenty gallons of syrup There
are impurities in the syrup which
should be extracted. First, the Juice
should be allowed to settle before be-
ing heated. After coming nearly to the
boiling point empty in a tub and add
coarse clay and puddle with a hoe. Let
it settle half an hour and then carefully
pour 1t into the pan again. Boil and
be particular to skim it, When ii is
half reduced to syrup again let it cool;
again, in the tub. add clay, mix well
and let stand over night. Next morn
ing turn off the clear juice and boil to
the finished syrup Be particular to
keep the utensils clean of skim, gum
and all the waste, and the syrup will
be a choice article that would sell
readily. This work calls for strict at
tention and not little skill, but it will
pay in money and satisfaction.-Prae

trimmed with heavy lace collars and re
vers over white MORE or brocaded silk
Neck scarfs are as fiat as ever, very
broad and hang almost TO the foot of the
skirt. Most of them are deliberately
trimmed with fur tails and heads. Chiffon
in white, light tints and black with fur
combined makes very handsome neck ac-
cessories. The fur is cut in small pieces.
which seems extravaganza, but the effect
is stunning. NUNS seem this year to
have reached the limit OF size. Many
are finished with large bows of satin
ribbon. Coat, muff and hat often match,
but the combination is an extremely cost
ly one. The furs sketched here are, from
left to right, squirrel stole cape, chin
chilla coat with collar revers and NUT Of
Russian sable and gilt enamel buttons;
a baby Persian blouse with ermirfe revers
ard muff, and an eton of black broadtail
with revers and cuffs of silver lynx.
New laees are very heavy and in vari-
Gus shades of cream and ecru. Silk laces
are stylish, and cotton and silk make
pretty combinations. Two or three varie-
ties of lace may be used on one costume
and they need not match in color Black
and white laces often are employed, and
if trimmed or outlined with fur, make
handsome combination for light cloth.
Thread laces, such as torchon, yak and
maltese, are very stylish this season, and
look well on many light, transparent ma
