A SPRING SONG.

When Love comes to my garden
lie walks with dainty tread,
The lilies blaze before him,
The moss-rosc lifts its head;
Ihe trim-kcpt lawns grow greener,
The borders blush with pride,
The buds burst into blossom
When Love walks by my side.
When Love leaves my sad garden
The Noses petals fall,
Inc jaSminc's scented clusters
fude, dying, on the wall:
Inc lawns grow dock and thistle,
mo paths are rank with weeds.
And all the dainty borders
Are Strewn with fallen seeds.
sweet Love, stay in my garden,
Hest in its rosy shades.
naSN IN its scented sunshine,
Dream in its lcafy glades;
"'nS to the strings of pleasure,
Through all life's penilune;
Make every season summer,
Let every month be June.

Soft Wood for Ties.

On account of the scarcity of oak,
chestnut and other hardwood timber
commonly used for railroad ties, rail-
roads have been successfully using the
softer woods, which have been treated
with chemicals such as creosote, zinc,
chloride, etc. Preservative treatment
can make a beech, red oak or pine
tie outlast a white oak tie. The use
of screw spikes instead of nail spikes
enables the soft wood to resist the
strain and hold the rails in place. The
use Of soft wood is likely to improve

interrogation said that was precisely
what he meant.
"Wel, I will tell you that it was

The cooking receipt columns ct the
woman's magazines have never been
regarded as the place to look for grace
full and entertaining writing, and this
is why considerable attention is being
attracted to series Of articles entitled
"Florinda's Dinners," now appearing
in "The Twentieth Century Home" :"
The author, Grace Coruiche, intro
duces us to the charming Florinda, in
whose education the culinary art has
not been neglected, and her husband,
whose first pleasure in life is to eat the
meals of his talented spouse. Florindas
dinners are indeed sufficient to chain
any man to his home, and Florinda
tells just how she got them up and
cooked them in the course of a delight
full narrative. They are simple, yet
original. One great value of the series
to the house wife is the description Of
many important economies in the
kitchen of which most women are un-
aware. The November issue gives di.

Early Winter Fashions.

This season many new notes have
been introduced in coats and wraps.
The latest arrival is the close-ftting,
long-skirted or basque affair, the ver-
liable tailored coat of old. The most
noticeable of new coats is that reach
ing quite to the knee, or even below,
and showing waist coat. More gen.
orally becoming than the long skirted
coat is the short iaunty affair fashioned
after the Louis and Directoire types.
Most picturesque are the separate coats
intended to be worn upon ceremnious
or dressy occasions, and so extremely
loose that they might be called cape
coats.
The newest foreign skirt model is Of
circular shaping with folds at the belt
or stitched in tucks to yoke outline,
and falls in graceful lines to the bot.
tom, where it is either stitched or de-
corated with alternate entre-deux and
plain bands, tucks or folds to relieve
its severity.
The fabrics chosen for autumn and
early winter gowns must be elegant,
and perfect harmony of colors is essen
tial correctly to carry out the ideas Of
the period from which the designs are
borrowed. The vogueof pink and pale
yellow continues and is carried out in
sprigged effects, as we'll as in stripes,
both fitting in with the Directoire
tendencies. Indian brown is one Of
the newest and smartest sh"des for the
street gown.
That colored embroideries are to have
an immense vogue this season there is
no doubt. An old art has been revived
in applique embroidery. From The
Delineator for November.

JUANITA.

Juanita Anderson, little daughter of
e. L. and Flora Anderson, died at
their home in Jackson, Miss, Septem-
ber, IA, and was buried at Anderson's
Chapel in Unicoi county, Tenn, Sep
tember Is. Every one who beheld her
lovely form, her soft blue eyes, and
her open countenance beaming with
love and sympathy pronounced her
more than an ordinary child. Her
sweet little life of only three summers
shed a fragrance into the lives of those
who knew her, which they will carry
into eternity. She had knowledge Of
divine things unusual for one of her
age. Seeing passing cloud in the
early days of Ter sickness, she express
ed desire to go up into the clouds
that she might see the Good Man.
when she arose from sleep she wore
a smile which drove away our cares as
sunshine dispells the clouds. Her
tricks and witty sayings would cheer
the most melancholy. The Joy of her
presence made life's burdens easier.
Like flower, her life was so sweet, yet
so short. She has withered but only
to blossom out more beautiful in a
brighter cline. She was our little
girl; she is now our little angel. No
more will she meet us at the gate when
we return from work, but she will meet
us at the beautiful gate when Jesus
calls us home.
"The Lord giveth and the Lord
taketh away; blessed be the name Of
the Lord"
We read OF that beautiful city with its streets
Of pure gold.
And that the Inhabitants never grow old
Juanita, our precious little jewel, so rare,
Will you whisper to us what it is to be there?
Though our hearts are sad and lonely, and
from sorrow have no rest.
When we see her in her beauty, we will know
that God knew best,

Far better than any temperance SER
mon that was ever preached is long
poem by Richard lie Gallienne in the
November Cosmopolitan. The. poet
imagines Omar Khayyam repenting Of
his loose philosophy of life and his
praise of the Vine:
The Grapel The Vine!O, what
an evil wit
Have words to glid the blackness
of the pitt
Said thus how fair it sounds
the Vinel the Grape
o, call it whisky and be done
with it.
And so as the old Persian admonishes
youth of twenty on the evil effects Of
drink, he gives the truth about the vine
trellised path to hell:
This shall the Vine do for you
it shall break
The woman's heart that loves
you, it shall take
Away from you your friends
sad, one by one,
And Of your own kind heart an
agate make.
It is safe to say that such musical
words as these are going to leave theiI
mark where commonplace prose fail oI
its effect. The whole poem forms al
strong a temperance argument as il
would be possible to imagine.
