saved bis Die.

This story IS told. according to
the Boston Herald, at the expense
of the late General William ".
Blackmar: General Blackmar was
attending attending a camp, when
he was approached by seedy look
ing man, who greeted him profuse-
ly. The general shrugged his
shoulders and turned away, with
the remark that they were not &C
quainted.
But, General, said the stran-
ger, don't you remember how
you saved my life at the battle of
the Wilderness"
General Blackmar at once became
interested, and he called a group
of comrades over to listen, saying:
81 saved this mans life once. How
was it done, old comrade?"
1t was this way" was the re-
Spouse. Eve were on hill, and
the enemy advanced steadily
toward our intrenchments. A veri-
table hail of fire swept our position.

despair which were paralyzing his
splendid energies. There are
thousands of homes in England at
this moment" he said, where
wives, mothers and children are
dying of hunger. Now, when the
first paroxysm of your grief is past,
I would advise you to come with
me, and we will never rest until
the Corn law is repealed"
Dean Stanley said: IF I were
to epitomize my wife's qualities, 1
couldn't do it better than in the
words of the cabman who drove
us on Our honeymoon. Your
wife, he said to me, is the best
woman in England and I quite
agree with him. -
Why should you pity me?" Mr..
tawcett, the blind postmaster gen
eral, remarked to a friend who had
expressed sympathy with him in
his affection. My wife is all
eyes 1 want, and no man ever
looked out on the world through
eyes more sweet or true y
No man ever relied more COM
pletly on his wife's guidance and
counsel than John Keble, the poet
of Christian Year" She was, as
he often declared, his conscience,
memory and common sense"
DIR. Pussy declared that the very
sight and smell of the verbena
affected him to tears, for it was a
sprig of verbena he offered to Miss
Barber when he asked her to marry
him the most sacred and bliss
full moment" of his life.
Dr. Wordsworth, late bishop OF
Lincoln said that his welded life
had been as near perfection as
was possible this side of Eden"

SHddehIy you tazzisa '-ene
auditors were absorbed and excited
and ran, I ran after you. I
think that if you hadn't shown the
example I would have been killed
that day
An enterprising salesman from
one of the largest cities went to a
certain rural community and en-
deavored to sell an incubator to a
farmer. His arguments did not
make any impression upon the
agriculturist. Finally, as clincher
in favor of his up-to-date improve
ment, he exclaimed:
Look at the time it will savel"
The farmer squirted a mouthful
of tobacco juice on the ground be-
fore replying, and then said, with
provoking calmness:
"Oh, what's time to settin'
hen?"
That settled the question. The
Incubator was not sold.
Hope is like the sun, which, as
we journey towards it, casts the
shadow of or burden behind us.

At any moment. In travelling, OF at

often very acceptable to do our of
doors or on rainy day. This en-
broidery lends itself very we'll to be-
ing done in sections. which can then
be applied to any material you please.
The worked section should be pressed

Another way OF using the idea OF
this embroidery would be to WORK it
on quite large scale as cushion

linen or satin as the foundation. Wide
bars might be embroidered quite a

In fig. 3 you see how the next and

tiresome always to put your needle in
