meet it with fortitude. The members
of the household are made to suffer
for the contrariness of circumstances,
and each in turn falls under her dis
pleasure.
A nagging, complaining wife soon
wears out a mans love. He becomes
impatient and then Indifferent This
last is loves deadliest foe. AS to the
children, little people are great imi-
tators and hearing mother nagging all
day and every day, they follow her ex-
ample, and nag and quarrel among
themselves; thus their childish affec-
tons, and. incidentally, their capacity
for love in after life, is nipped in the
bud
Why women can be constantly scold-
ing and fretting when there are so
many pleasant things to talk about is
past understanding. If women would
refuse to see things from the blacklist
point of view the clouds would soon
give way to the bright and smiling
morning.

yet close to her. what harm have l

What can they say of me? What can
they say?'
Her eyes were blinded by tears that
blotted Gwendoline's stern face from her
sight. She was still so much a child that
she made no effort to conceal her terror
and confusion. She barred all the foolish
secrets of her heart before those cruel
eyes.
People say that you are triHiEg
wife to a simple-hearted and trusting
husband. Do you imagine that you could
keep any secret from Graybridge? Do
you think your actions or even your
thoughts could escape the dull eyes of
these country people, who have nothing
better to do than watch the doings of
their neighbors?" demanded Gwendoline
bitterly.
Isabel had been crying all this time,
crying bitterly, with her head bent upon
her clasped hands; but to Gwendoline's
surprise she lifted it now, and looked at
her accuser with some show of indigna-
ton, if not defiance.

to colorS, one has only to look at the
fail lines of dress goods TO know what
colors are to lead in the millinery

saying too much. There are glossy
silks which arc very popular, and
MORE silk is asain seen. The old
fashioned dotted silks, the seeded silks,
the Japanese silks, with their brilliant

played, and it has come to Il point
where it is unwisc to recommend this

from which choice might be made.

EARLY LUMBERMEN EPIcuREs.
They Cut Only Best of Trees-How
Drive Was Handled.

Drive Was Handled.
The early lumbermen were "epicu-
rean" as to their ideas of the quality
of the timber, says the Pilgrim. Only
the cream of the trees was taken and
cork pine logs cut in 1858 and sold
at $3.50 a thousand would produce
lumber that would be worth $50
thousand in the market to-day even if
it could be had at all.
In the early spring when the SHOWS
melted and the breakup" came, the
camps were delivered of their living
crew, the men streaming down to the
cities and towns where their employ
ers lived to receive pay for the winter
work, have big blowout and too often
be quickly broke and ready to "go up
on the drive and come down with the
JAM" long before the drive started.
The logs when started down the
river constituted the drive" and these
were handled by men hired for the
purpose, usually by the owners or con-
tractors, who drove the logs down to
the "boom limits where they We're
turned over to the crews Of the big
boom companies who RATED and sorted
the logs and delivered them to the mill
of the owner. On the drive the men
wore heavy boots with spikes in the
soles to enable them to maintain a
footing on the big logs, at times a haz-
ardous undertaking. The men at the
bOoms sorted the logs according to the
marks. fastened the logs into RATS
with pins and rope and tugs then tow
ed them to the mill.
Among the incidents of log driving
We're Jams or piling up of logs into
an apparently ineXtricable mass, and
it is then that the work of the driver
becomes strenuous. The two largest
boom companieS-the Tittabawassee
ed and delivered G00,000,000 feet of
pine logs in a single season.
But it is a dream now. The change
came in the utilization of steam and
rail in handling pine logs. The meth
DDS of numbering were revolutionized.
IHe penetration Oh lUe Immense pine
forests by lines of railroad and log
ging rendered available vast areas of
timber hitherto inaccessible until
there is scarcely 4 tree in all the wide
commonwealth that has escaped the
woodman's AK. Logs are hauled by
rail 100 miles or more to manufacture
ing points. sawmills multiplied along
the lines of railroad. the timber was
cut off and the product, instead of
leaving some manufacturing point on
''swift-winged' and tidy and trim
schooners and later on barges towed
by steamers, is distributed by rail. The
big piles of pine lumber that lined the
banks of the streams at manufacture
ing points have largely disappeared
and the S00.O00,000 and more feet of
lumber that was shipped by boat in a
single river from one of the principal
Michigan lumber centers has given
place to nearly 200.0O0,000 feet of Ca
madam pine lumber brought in. a re-
versal of conditions that twenty-five
years ago would have been deemed
chimerical. The fleets of lumber car
riers have taken wings and their white
sails no longer dot the inland seas.

Vanishing Home.

People who know what a home is
are not so many as middle-aged men
and women think and they who never
had one will hardly be expected to
join in the lament at its gradual disap-
pearance, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
That it is going out of fashion there
is not a doubt. Every new pile of
flats, every conversion of a dwelling
to boarding house is elegiac of the
circumstance. The modern family
shifts from one tenement to another,
loses OF damages its goods in the tran
sit, but as constantly losing the old,
and is without quiet and retirement
and peace. The older people regret
the change; the younger have no
standards by which to measure it.

Advice to Girls.

Do the little things, and then if you
have time dream of the great things.
Be natural. Remember there are
others as lovely as you are.
Be conservative. Your acquaintances
do not want your condolences.
At all times be womanly. a mas
culine girl does not retain admiration.
Be quick to believe good. Believe
the good until the evil is evident.
Be pleasant at all times. A smile
does more good in this world than all
the preachings.
Think beautiful thoughts. "Beauti-
full thoughts are angels bright"
Remember that you are judged by
your actions. do noble things, dom
dream them all day long,

UMPIREs HAPPEN.

"Umpires just happen,' says Tim Hurst. "When the Lord finds a man who is a failure at everything else he gets him job as an umpire.
 "There will be more umpires in heaven. than there are ball players. know it is fashinable for players and spectators to abuse and revile the judge of play, but I want to, tell you St Peter won't look at 1t in that way.
 Blessed are the meek the good book tells us. When q player smites me with linguistic pyrotechnics on one cheek I turn the other without word.
 ''The umpire is the one man who hasn't friend on earth, but he will be an honored guest over there.
 "Umpiring ball games Is hard work and thankless job. but the reward is great in the end. But don't advise a young man to go to umpiring as busi- ness.
 If he receives call. he knows not how or where. let him take up the in- dicator and address no man as friend or brother.

THE SPORTING NEWS.
THE DIAMOND
OFPLAYERS
What the Connecticut Boys Did in the American League
 the Past Season.

The official fielding averages of the
 American league, just issued, show that Carr of Cleveland leads the first basemen, though Jiggs Donahue of | Chicago is the most valuable man, ac- cording to the figures; that the only Lajoie leads the second basemen, Lowe | the third basemen, with Bradley the practical leader; George Davis the shortstops, Barrett the outfelders, with
 Crawford the best, considering the many more games he played; Schreck- engast the catchers, and Red Donanue the pitchers. Waddell has the best record for games won among the pitchers. The seat of honor in no posi- tion falls to New Yorker, and the hill men rank seventh in team fielding. As coverer of much territory young Joe Cassidy of Washington looms up prominently with g assists. The rec ords show that Griffith was New York's most successful pitcher in per centage of victories. There seems to pitches. Philadelphia and New York lead in having pitchers taken out of the box, the former meeting with thai experience twenty-two times and New York twenty.
 The records of the former Connecti. cut league players in the American league are interesting. Among the sec- ond basemen Ferris of Boston stands fifth with an average of .961. He played in Al games, had 320 put outs 424 assists and 30 errors Murphy of Philadelphia stood right behind Ferris with an average of .956. He played in 150 games. had 2S7 put outs, 3S7 as- sists and 31 errors. Unglaub was the only third baseman who played in the Connecticut league formerly. Playing with Boston last season he stood eighth among the third basemen witk an average of .927. He played in 2l games, had p put outs, 30 assists and , errors. Parent was the only short stop from Connecticut. Playing also with Boston he stood ninth with an average of .920. He played in 153 games, had 294 put outs, 461 assists and 66 errors. Of the outfielders Hoffman of Philadelphia stood twen- ty-eighth, with an average of .942. He played in IT games. had PA put outs, 12 assists and IA errors. Dougherty of New York was thirty eight, with an average of .S97. He played in III games. had 173 put outs, II assists and 21 errors. Among the catchers Arm bruster of Boston stood last, with an average of .944. He played in 8 games. had 154 put outs, 30 assists and II errors. With the pitchers Frank Donahue of this city, now with the Clevelands, was first with percent age of 1000. He played in twenty games. had put outs, AS assists and no errors His record as a winner. however was away behind his record as fielder His average was onlg .33.

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 11.-There will be a big change in the game of football next year. That is assured by the results of the rules committee meeting at the home of George McFad- den. chairman of Pennsylvania's foot ball committee. After being in session several hours and having elected Dr. Dashiell Of the Naval academy chair man of the committee the following was given out for the public: The committee is in favor of action looking to the opening of the game.
