The Widows Cap.

A very ancient origin, dating back to
the time of the old Egyptians, has the
widows cap. The Greeks borrowed
from the latter the custom of shaving
the head and beard in time of mourn
ing. The Romans copied, but, being q
smooth shaven people, had only the
head upon which to operate This,
when shaved, they covered with wig
The women did not necessarily shave
their heads, but they were careful to
hide their hair beneath a cap. The use
of Grape upon the arm is a naval and
military emblem of bereavement, come
down to US from days of chivalry,
when ladies fair bound scarfs upon
the arms of their champions as they
went to test their skill and courage in
the tournament.

One who has been employed these
thirty years in slaughter houses as

far from the truth-that is, in most
cases. Let. me explain how the she'd

once saw a butcher cut his hand very
severely, and not one of his twenty or
more associates could be induced to go
near to assist him. | had to bandage
him up as we'll as I could and send him
to a hospital. Another butcher who
had helped slaughter from 1000 to
1000 hogs a day for years saw a wom-

which mangled her fearfully. He

Right Doing.

Ones rightful work is often halted
by fear Of what others will say about
it. This may be even more a barrier
to the work than the fear of not doing
the work at all. 1t takes courage to
do what we believe we ought to do
when we think we shall be criticised
or misunderstood or scorned. But the
real calamity lies in not doing what
we ought. OF this it is well to have
so strong fear that we shall have
courage to face whatever others may
say of our right doing.-MaxwelPs Tai
