Our friends. the Reformed Episco-
palians, have decided that, while they
expect to go OH reforming to the end
of time, they will leave the marriage
service intact for the present. There
was disposition to cut out the word
obey from the brides response, pre-
sumably on the theory that it is a
dead letter and should be transferred
to the masculine part Of the ceremony,
but it was finally agreed that it might
be left untouched, inasmuch as women
consider it matter of no Importance,
and they needn't mean it, you know"
AS Dr. Bishop says: whats the odds
as long as we do the Lords will?"
BY which is meant that woman, as
an excellent judge of the Lords will,
may be relied on to obey according
to the impressions received from on
high, a very sensible and convincing
view Of the case.

1t is critical period in a boys life
when he reaches the age when he con-
siders it manly to call his mother 1.-The
old woman" All boys may feel proud
when they can prove by the almanac
that they are old enough and wise
enough to guide themselves. They
may well rejoice when they have out
grown the maternal petticoat. We
can forgive the premature youth who
eXultantly exclaims, ''I'm my own
boss" 1t is the spirit of 1776 come
home again, and we admire independ-
ence in all its phases. But there is no
excuse for the boy who belittles his
parents by calling them nance which
smart boys" invent. Smoke cigaret-
tes, stay out nights or swear like a
teamster If you consider it manly.
but never fail to treat your mother
with the respect due her. Honor the
dear old mother 1t is hom.
age which the president In his
chair and the convict in his
cell are not too high or low to deny
without everlasting remorse. Time ma
have strewn snow flakes in her hair.
may have plowed burrows in her brow.
but she is sweet and pretty to-day.
The marks of time which have sunken
her lips should sink into your memory
how those lips kissed many hot tear
from childish cheek. Though per-
haps dimmed with age, the same de-
voted eyes are sending forth rays of
love. The weight of many years NAV
have enfeebled her step, yet she will
80 further to carry you aid when need.
ed than all others in the world. In
firm and crippled, yet her love has
triumphed over age and there is no
cloud dark enough to keep her from
your side. With a love kindled at
the cradle side her arms will follow
you to the scaffold's awful brink
When the world forsakes you. and your
fellowmen leave you at the roadside
to die reviled and scorned your mother
will find you. She will lift you up In
tenderness, nurse you and comfort
you till you forget the bitterness of
life. The grandest religion on earth
Is the love for mother; the greatest sin
Is to dishonor her.

America, being big country and a
rich one, is able to spend on its pleas
ures sums which reach enormous totals
each year There are plenty Of amuse-
ments which have place on the
cOuntry's balance sheet in the hundred
million class, but most of them are Of
kind in which all or nearly all Of
the people participate to a great ex-
tent. One form of pleasure, however,
which comparatively few people can
enjoy, and which yet ranks high in
the total amount spent on it, is for
eign travel. An expert in the naviga-
ton business has been recently max
ing an estimate of what our tourists
will spend abroad this year, and he
places the amount at $100,O00,O0O
From the port of New York there will
be siXty-seven sailings of first-class
steamships for Europe each month
They will carry approximately 21,5OO
cabin passengers a month, or $4,000 in
the four months of the season. Enough
tourists will sail earlier or later, it is
estimated, to bring the total to 1885,
600. For their passage this army of
travel will pay $31, 100000, and for
their living and other expenses good
$7O,OOO,OOO more, or a total Of at least
$1OO,OOO,O0O. AS the steamship lines
are owned almost entirely by foreign
ers, it is near the truth to say that
this sum goes into foreign pockets,
where it becomes an important factor
In the settlement of the balances of
foreign trade. Latterly the United
States has beeN sending abroad each
year goods to the value of $4OO, O,OOO, 900
or $5O0,000,000 more than the value of
the goods it buys abroad. Foreign
nations have, therefore, just this large
a balance to settle for in some other
way than by sending us manufactures
in exchange. The $10000O,O0O worth
of services they give to our tourists
helps them out materially in the set
tlement.

BUTTONS ON BUSHES.
Strange Nut from Which Button. Ar.
Made in Great Numbers,


No. the ivory buttons you wear do
not represent the death Of an elephant
in the wilds of Africa; your pearl but
tons were probably never nearer than
you took them to the shell Of a blvalye
mollusk, and the probabilities are that
no rubber tree was ever tapped to pro-
duce the hard rubber buttons that
adorn your overcoat. Down in Cen
tral America there is a fruit produc.
ing palm that has quite metamorphos-
ed the button business and formed
the nucleus for one of the most i'm.
portant industries in the United States.
The seed of this fruit contains milk
that Is sweet to the taste and relished
by the natives. The milk when allow.
ed to remain in the nut long enough
becomes indurated and turn into sub.
stance as brittle and hard as the ivory
from the elephants tusk. The plant
that produces these nuts is called the
ivory plant. Most Of the buttons now
used In America, whether termed
ivory. pearl, rubber, horn or bone
come from this ivory plant. Thus the
probabilities are that your buttons are
made from vegetable milk, and thev
grow on bushes.
The ivory plant is one Of the mar
veis of the age, and is rewarding its
growers with vast fortunes. The nuts
are brought to the United States by
the shipload and hauled across the
