told me this morning, as
she bought half a dozen
packages, that her chill

use EGG-O-SEE. She said
it made them bright and

getting along unusually
well at school.

to the gay picturesqueness and butter

The Head of More.

When the wise and witty Sir Thon,-

where 1t was exposed for fourteen
days, much to the grief of his daugh-
ter, Margaret Roper, who resolved to
secure it. Zone day." says Aubrey, "as
she was passing under the bridge, look
ing at her fathers head, she exclaim-
ed: That head has lain many a time
In my lap. Would to God 1t would fall
into my lap as pass underp She had
her wish, and 1t did fall into her lap"
Probably she had bribed one Of the
keepers of the bridge to throw it over
just as the boat approached, and the
exclamation was intended to avert the
suspicion Of the boatmen. At all
events, she got possession of it and
preserved it with great care In a leaden
casket until her death, and 1t is now
inclosed In a niche in the wall of her
tomb In st. Dunstan's church, Canter-
bury.-Notes and Queries.

WANTEr-WORK.

We have just laid down one of the
large city daiIies. The column after
column of short want advertisements
is appalling. In each is found a hu-
man call for something to do-some-
thing that will furnish bread for hun
CRY mouths. They say appealingly ::
"Give us something to do that we
may live!" And who are these peo-
pie? They are, in the main, the un-
fortunates, the misfits of society. A
small percentage are now in the ranks
of the employer and desire to i'm
prove their condition. The student
of social conditions is dumbfounded
when confronted with the extreme
large percentage of men with no fixed
calling, who aimlessly drift with
every tide, having no anchor. In a
measure, changes in business oondi-
ions which result for the invention
and Introduction of machinery to
supersede mans labor and the con-
solldatlon and centralizing of busi-
ness enterprises, is responsible. But,
generally, the fault is to be found in
the individual. He has failed to
adopt, in early life, a fixed purpose.
Being man without a goal ahead
some fixed object to rivet his atten-
G1on and give definite aim to a Iaud-
able purpose, he shifts and haIts until
hn &c. L..
sinks to the level of the "misfits. ,
Ihe young person should decide what
calling he or she is best adapted to,
and having made a choice, "stick to
your bush" that is, do your very
best and remain with that occupation
so long as there is. ray of hope.
Don't be unstable, seeking first here
then there for something that looks
more attractive than your present
employment. Talking, as we do to
our readers monthly, upon the home
ly beauty of a contented farmers
life, we are once more impressed
with the duty of appealing to the
young people, especially, to choose
wisely, and in choosing, inquire into
your own deeper convictions to ascer-
tain If your best welfare will not be
supserVed by remaining on the farm.
You may thus be less liable to find
yourselves mustered among the army
of business wrecks in the years to
come. Observing men discuss a re-
markable tendency toward the farm,
with its pure air, wholesome food,
and the touch of nature that makes
for home, health, purity of life and
happiness. The old argument that
the farm life depIives one of the good
things, socially and intellectually, is
no longer we'll founded in fact. The
rural delivery, interurban and steam
railways and other modern convent
ences have made that life the best of
all lives to live. American Farmer.

How Sculptor. Work In Marble.


The artist makes a model first, not
always life size, but almost none of
them actually does the cutting in the
marble. This work is intrusted to high
y skilled artisans, who do the work
Under their direction, and the sculp-
tors superintend all the finishing
touches and even occasionally do some
Of the cutting on the face and hands.
The actual cutting of the stone is a
most difficult process and requires
great expert skill. In case a full sized
model is made the sculptor sends it to
professional marble cutter, who
roughly shapes the block. The general
shape is often given to the block be-
fore it leaves the marble yard to save
the extra freight. The rough carving
Is then done by the marble cutter, who
SO shapes the block as to give 1t the
general outline of the figure to be re.
produced. He drills a series Of holes
In the block, the depth of each of which
corresponds to an external point of
the statue supposed to be inclosea in
the stone. After a sufficient number
Of these holes have been made in the
stone he removes the entire perforated
portion, and what remains gives the
broad lines of the statue.

Wherein Coffee Is PECULIAR.

Probably every one who has noticed
the green and roasted coffee sitting to-
gether in sacks in the dealers store
house has observed the difference in
size of the beans. 1t is a popularity
of coffee that In roasting while it
loses considerably in weight it gains
in bulk. At the reddish brown stage
the loss of weight has been about 10
per cent and the gain in bulk about
80; at the chestnut brown, 20 and so
per cent respectively. and, If carried
to dark brown, 25 and 60. 1t is in
the roasting that the volatile oil to
which the delightful aroma is due is
developed, as it is not present in the
green berry. If the roasting is carried
too far-beyond light brown-this
oil is injured and destroyed, and the
disappointed housekeeper properly
complains that the coffee has been
roasted to death.

An Unpromising Field.

Mr.. Yipsley was Just on the point of
leaving his house for his place Of busi-

Laughter and worIdIy succe,,.

Speaking of laughter, have often
wondered If the laughing man and the
laughing woman really get along bet
ter in the world than the man and
woman who do not laugh, or if they
laugh at all merely grin at some
amusing thing" said the observant
man. 81 do not know, am sure OF
course you will find that men and wo-
men Of both types probably in your
own acquaintance have been able to
get along fairly well in the world
Laughter is no doubt good capital in a
great many instances. 1t is equally
true that the grim face, the sour look,
I may say, has often proved a valuable
asset. The which would seem to indl-
cate that there is time to laugh and a
time not to laugh."-New Orleans

GAMES POSTPONED.
Wet Grounds Prevented Nationals

noon between the Nationals and Boston
clubs were postponed on account of wet
grounds.

ment was agreed to- Manager Collins was
Immediately notified so that the visitors
didn't make the trip to the park The
players of both teams were pleased over
the postponement as the long journey from
the west and yesterdays double-header al
most exhausted them.
The local enthusiasts were true to the Ma
tionals, notwithstanding yesterdays double
defeat, and began arriving at the park as
early as 1870. Policeman O'Neil was sta
toned at the gate to notify the people that
there would be no game, and he Is authority
for the statement that fully 1000 people
were turned away by 1:30. Had the games
been played at least 5000 would have been
on hand to witness the contests.
The Nationals leave tonight for Philadel-
phia, where they will meet the Athletics In
a series of four games. The Quakers have
been playing a very strong game of late.
and it will take some fast ball on the part
Of the Nationals to pull off victory.
