The Teacher Was HorrIfed.

The Sunday school lesson for the
day was Joseph Sold Into Egypt"
and the teacher of the infant class
asked bright little boy to tell the
lesson story.
He went on with it right until
he said, "His brothers murdered a
little child, and dipped Joseph's coat
in the blood"
What" gasped the teacher.
That's what my lesson paper said"
persisted the boy.
$50 did mine" "And NINE" added
one child after another.
LET me see it," said the teacher,
and the children passed up regular
shower Of little pink lesson papers.
There, see!" said the boy. They
killed kid and dipped the coat iE
the blood"
This actually happened in northern
New England, where the children are
not familiar with goats.

WORTH REMEMBERING.

There are three entirely different
kinds Of ingredients used in making
the three different varieties of baking
powders on the market viz:-(1) Min.
eral-Acid or Alum, (2) Bone-Acid or
Phosphate, and 60 Cream Of Tartar
made from grapes. 1t is important,
from the standpoint of health. to
know something about these ingredi-
ents, and which kind is used in your
baking powder.
"a Mineral-Acid, or Alum, is made
from kind OF clay. This is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution a product is obtained
which is alum. Alum is cheap; costs
about two cents pound, and baking
powder made with this Mineral-Acid
cells from 10 to Csc. pound.
(2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, is the
basis OF phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described in
the patents issued to large manufac-
turer OF phosphate powder The u.
S. Patent Ofice Report gives full
and exact description, but the follow
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones, after being ground,
are put into freshly diluted oil Of Wit
rlol and with continual stirring and
in the following proportion" etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak-
ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents a pound.
(3) Cream of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes, and flows with the juice
from the press in the manufacture of
wine. After the wine is drawn off the
tartar is scraped from the cask, boil
ed with water, and crystals of Cream
Of Tartar, white and very pure, sepa-
rate and are collected. 1t differs in
no respect from the form in which 1t
originally existed in the grape. Cream
Of Tartar, then, while the most e2pen-
siye. is the only ingredient that
should be used In baking powder to
act upon the soda, as its wholesome
ness is beyond question. Cream Of
Tartar baking powders sell at about
40 to so cents a pound.
Such are the facts, and every one.
careful of the health of the family,
should remember this rule:-Baling
powders selling from 10 to 25 cents a
pound are made Of Mineral-Acids; (;
those selling from 20 to 80 cents of
Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to so
cents Of Cream Of Tartar made from
grapes.

Trying the Brides Temper

On the day of a Chinese marriage
unlimited friends and neighbors. or
even perfect strangers, are allowed to
go in and see the bride, and they may
make any remark about her, or to her

try her temper a man will say: Fetch
your husband cup of tea" If she
does so all will say, jeeringly: What

that she had never seen before and
which she knew to have been inspired
by the meager hope she had held out
to him that August night OF glowing
skies. The new look was very becom-
ing. but professionally she did not
want It. 1t did not harmonize with the
personnel Of her idea.
"This will never dol" she thought
as he came for the next sitting with
his eyes soft and brightly lustrous. Il
am not seeking the picture Of jovial,
liEht-hearted farmer. l had staked all
my chances Of success on that grave,
serious expression OF WEAKNESS and
strength combined. l must work him
into the mood someway.'
He paused before the easel on his
way out
Nothing but splashes Of color" she
laughed. After he had gone she re
mained before the easel in a brown
study. An expression partly quizzical
and partly contrite crossed her face.
"It's mean. she thought, 'but I'll do
It. The end win justify the means"
The next day she gave him picture
of her sketches to look at while she
was getting ready to work. One was
sketch Of herself that a fellow student
at the Academy had made.
Instantly his face grew full Of ex-
preston as she meant 1t to be, but
still that provoking radiance illumin-

Il have promised 1t to the artist who
sketched It." she said, splashing some
brown ochre preparatory to an eye
production. Encouraged by his express
sion she began to paint rapidly, then
relenting, "He was only a mere boy.
OF course, wouldn't give my picture
to man"
A look like the rushing of sunshine
in dark place flashed across his
features.
Il am only chasing his features from
one expression to another" she
thought ruefully. This see-saw must
stop.
II am going to the city to study
again in October" she said bluntly.
At lastl Just the expression she
wanted! Leaving him to his reflec-
tions and apprehensions. she painted
rapidly and in silence. At the end of
the afternoon she looked at her work
with satisfaction. but Dorr was disap-
proving.

asked. why didn't you tell me to
look pleasant"
'This expression is more effective
from an artistic standpoint" she said
cheerfully, Il feel that / am going to
succeed. and you shall not gaze upon
the picture again until it is hung"
The days and the work went stead
lily on. Dorr came daily to pose, and
gnzed pensively up through the sky
lights of Ruth's studio, seeing in his
gaze visions Of harvest meadows and
pastures green, towering stalks Of corn
bearing their burden OF grain which
awaited only the first touch of frost to
briaa Al-'- s"idllment. And while he

his hopes and his depsair. Ruth paint
ed as c1e inspired, putting her whole
being and his into the picture.
In October Ruth took the Last
Load" and went to the cry. One day
there was an exhibition Of pictures
and her name was on Oyeryone's lips.
Her painting had excited unusual and
marked attentiAn. She wrote Dorr
and asked him to come and see it. To-
gether they went to the gallery. 1t
was quite early--long before the popu-
lar hour for visitors. Dorr stood spell
bound before the masterpiece. The
meadow, the tottering load Of hay and
the tired horses were true to life, but
his eyes were riveted on the man
standing at the horses heads. The
1.-the form with shoulders that
seemed made for bulwark, lean
of hip and small of waist
was at once athletic and mag
netic. A low-setting sun sent slanting
rays where he stood, making the fork
gracefully poised on his shoulder
gleam like gold. In his uplifted face,
the face of man who has toiled the
livelong day was the tenacity Of pur-
pose and the grim constancy that
make men. Behind the WEAKNESS and
gravity were nobility and depth Of
heart.
There was little heartache under
meath his pleasure in her success.
Ruth" he said wistfully, 'if | did
look like that-if were like that,
would you care for me?"
'Dorr, the picture painted itself, and
from every stroke of the brush |
knew that did care-had always
cared!"

II had been an intensely hot day.
Now and then warm puffs OF wind
scattered little whirlpools Of binding
white dust, but between these puffs
OF breezes the leaves only stirred
enough TO utter faint whisper. The
hot, close-cropped fields took on their
first suggestion OF autumnal anticipa-
tion.
A tall, 1.-THE farmer, leaning languid-
ly on his hay fork. was scanning the
country road that passed the field
whS Ne he was at work. At last he saw
the looked fer cloud OF dust, and then
came into his vision the little, fat pony
and wide phaeton which was refined up
at the fence, while a fair-haired girl
called to him. He went up to the side
OF the carriage and while he was talk
ing to her, he felt that she was fairly
absorbing him with her gaze. He
looked straight into her eyes and in
their shining depths he beheld an ex-
preston of rapture that he had ever
Ionged to bring there, but he keenly
realized that he was only the sugges-
tion OF some intense thought that had
brought this look to her dream-cen-
tered face.

WHO SHALL BE CALLED sANES

Few, Indeed.


Who is insane? asks Stephen Smith.
NJ. d., Ii. D., in Leslies Magazine.
No one, or, every one, according as
we ask the question. No one in an
asylum will admit that he or she is
insane. Each in turn would resent
such an insinuattion. Certainly, no
one out Of an asylum will assent to
the charge of being insane. And yet,
10th parties readily recognize the in
sanity of others. An intelligent old
lady, once the head Of ladies' sem
mary, wished me to discharge her
from an asylum, alleging that all the
patients In the hall believed her sane.
Seven women were privately asked
their opinions as to her sanity and
all declared that she was very insane,
while asserting their own sanity.
When informed of the result Of the
test, the old lady accurately described
the special peculiarities Of each OF
her accusers. SO, in every commu-
Eity, the private gossip is much con-
cerned about those who are called
strange" peculiar" "deranged," !"
unbalanced" "light-headed," "a-lit-
.le-on," "out-of-gear," "wrong-in-the-
apper-story," "cranks." Few. if any,
escape for a lifetime, one or the other
Of these epithets. Without, as with
in the asylum, no one recognizes his
or her own mental deviations, but
readily detects the mental alterations
Of others.
