he went to bed so tired that his head
had hardly touched the pillow before
he was asleep. He knew nothing
further until he was awakened by a
noise in the adjoining room. He rose
in bed and listened.
"He heard the stove being shaken
down vigorously and the rattle Of
coal being put on. and recognized the
voice Of the Governor, who was doing
the shaking down and coaling up,
humming the then new and popular
song, When the Robins Nest Again
Lamont looked at his watch. 1t
was just 4 o'clock The Governor
was up getting breakfast ready, pre-
paratory to the beginning of work for
the day.
Lamont didn't wait to be called,
but got up right then and dressed
himself and reported to the Governor,
who was plainly pleased with the
staying and recuperating qualities of
his young lieutenant.
THE system that Lamont put into
the work of Strengthening out that
tangled mass Of correspondence and
in a remarkably short time getting it
moving in easy aud proper channels
favorably impressed Grover Cleve-
land. At any rate, that is the way,
so Lamont used to say, that he and
Grover Cleveland first met. How
much that meeting meant to the fu-
ture of each is history now"

For "THE UNION"
HEL EN-.
BY RETsAEMA.

Noblest and loveliest one among women,
How delight in your presence to be;
Idle the effort to try to tell to you
What is the meaning of yourself to me.
Dearer by far are the tips of your fingers
Than all of anyone else upon earth;
would give up for the love of your heart. dear,
All things beside that men count of most worth.
There is no part of you-soul, mind or body
But that reverence. worship. adore
And each new time that look on your features
'Tis but to find that love you yet more.
Oh. that might make you understand truly
How very dearly / care for your grace;
Care for the fragrance of your gloriousp presence.
Long for the sight Of your beautiful face.
How the sound of your voice is the sweetest of
music.
Your eyes are the dearest ever have seen;
How in your presence is fullness of pleasure,
My beautiful Helen, my glorious queen.
Hunger and thirst are but feeble expressions
For love your every atom, each heart beat,
All that you think, all you are, all you do.
Once on time you gave me smile. dear.
And my heart ever since then has been glad
For. dear, smile from your eyes is far better
If / had wealth that was limitless, countless,
If had fame that would never die here;
If I had happiness beyond all measure,
would lay all of them at your feet, dear.
Beautiful, gracious. adorable Helen,
Gift of bountiful Father above;
Won't you accept now the homage bring you !;
Won't you be glad, dear, because of my love.

FOR FRIGHTENING UP HOMES.

The House Beautiful gives some
good ideas for frightening up the
home rooms and hiding at the same
time worn and faded chair covers.
'In many households it is the Gus
tom to cover a dozen or so of the
chairs in attractive chintzes and 10
distribute them through the house
small rocker with Scotch rose
cover in one bed room, big wing
chair with gorgeous hollyhocks in
another, a lounge with green oak
leaves in another, and sewing chair
with narrow flower stripes in the sew
ing-room. The designs are chosen to
harmonic with the walls and add a
freshness and newness to rooms used
all the year. With this plan remnants
may be untitled, and variety of
designs selected. Nothing brightens
UP room more successfully, and moth
ing adds a crisper, fresher touch than
the transformed rocker, armchair or
couch. Under the new cover may be
faded red or plush, but it is hidden
from sight and thankfully forgotten.
The making Of the covers requires
care. The old way of piping the
seams with a plain color is not now in
vogue. Seams are hidden and care
full fitting is necessary. When well
made, the covers last for several sea-
sons, and are really an economy, for
they save three or four months of hard
wear. But that is not their greatest
recommendation. We tire of our
clothes. If chintz and cretonne add
a little variety to the summer life,
they are worth the consideration of
every housekeeper.

THE DAINTY GIRL.

"Some girls have the knack Of
looking NICE" said the Plain Person.
II only wish I knew how they man.
age it. There's Helen Barton, for
MISTAKENLY brothers always call
her Her Daintiness' who's regu-
lar little fraud, for somehow she al
ways makes one think she's pretty,
and yet she isn't bit she's only
well dressed and dainty"
What the Plain Person said was
perfectly true. "Her Daintiness"
does not possess shred of real beauty,
and yet all her friends admire her,
and she generally has the credit OF be-
ing the best dressed girl in the town.
Perhaps:you, like the Plain Person,
would like her receipt. So here it is.
1t consists of nothing more or less
than being careful.
Helen Barton has only small dress
allowance, yet she is always smart
looking. The. fact is that she chooses
her clothes well, and takes care of
them. She never commits the error
of buying anything because it is so
cheap, and is sure to be useful some
day." but she makes up her mind be-
fore entering shop exactly what she
wants, takes care that she does not
waste her money by buying all sorts
of trihes, pretty enough in their way,
but utterly unsuitable to the rest of
her wardrobe.
Helen knows that a girl is well
dressed, however simple, as long as
her costume is suitable to the occasion
and Immediately fresh.
Accordingly she has lately been
wearing, for quite smart occasions, a
simple gown of thickish dark blue
cotton material with a tiny white
stripe. It has a wide, embroidery
covered sailor collar, and a pretty nest
of soft looking tucked cambria.
She made it herself. and the cost
was little enough, but what it lacks
in richness is made up for in dainty
freshness, and she really looks charm
ing in it.
Helen's dainty appearance is not
achieved without some trouble. Be-
fore she puts away her hats she always
removes the dust from them, and
pulls out the bows, if they require it.
It is the same with her dresses.
Those are not just "poked" into
wardrobe till they are wanted again,
but they are first overlooked to see
if brushing is needed or new skirt
braid or, perhaps, fresh piece of frill-
ing in the neck.
Helen is never seen wearing any
thing in the least untidy or soiled.
Anyone might think that her chiffon
fuckers must cost small fortune,
but chiffon is really economical wear,
for it will iron out beautifully when
crumpled. and even bear washing.
She says that the white chiffon TRIM
ming of her hat has been washed sew
eral times, and that she does it her
self quite easily.
Another matter Helen is most par
ticular about is that she should be
nicely gloved. She always straightens
out her gloves when she takes them
off and puts them away neatly in a
case. She says she finds that suede
gloves can be kept clean and nice for
a long time if she occasionally gives
them a good rubbing with bread
crumbs. She puts on the gloves and
goes through the process Of a dry wash
in the crumbs.

A SIMPLE SCIENCE LESSON.

Many boys and girls have wonder
ed, no doubt, why lightning rod is
always pointed, instead of having a
blunt end, and also why the point is
made of metal that does not easily
corrode.
The object of lightning rod is to
empty cloud of its electricity nois-
lessly and harmlessly, and it must be
pointed because a point offers no re-
sistance to the discharge. The degree
of resistance is in proportion of the
surface of the object, and a point has
the least possible surface.
If the rod had ball or knob on
the top, the discharge would be vio-
lent. The difference is shown in dis
charging a battery, says the New
York Mail. You will be surprised to
hear, perhaps, that the full charge
from a large battery may be passed
though your body if it be received
through the point of a needle. The
same charge, received through ball
tipped discharger, would kill you in
stantly.
Besides point attracts the light
ming, and thus keeps it from striking
other parts of the building. The
point is made of metal that does not
easily corrode because corrosion, OF
rust, increases the resistance, and a
rusty point, therefore, might cause a
violent and destructive discharge.
If you you have lightning rod on
YOUR house no doubt it has emptied
many cloud of its electricity with
out anybody's knowing anything
about it.

SIMPLE TEST FOR QUALITY OF BUTTER.

A simple means of determining
whether butter is real butter, oleo-
margarine or process" butter is to
boil it. Process butter is the result
of making over rancid or stale butter,
by melting, washing with soda and
churning with milk. If piece of
the butter to be tested, the size of a
hickory nut. be placed in large
silver spoon and held over the flame
of an alcohol lamp it will first melt
and then boil. Real butter boils
quietly, with bubbles rising evenly
from all points, while oleomargarine
or process butter sputters and crackles
with a noise like that of a green stick
of wood when thrown on the fire.

MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN.

How professional men make ac-
quaintances can be illustrated by the
story of two men whom know. One
of them, a dentist, had practial
father, who taught him how good an
investment good clothes and many
friends might be. This doctor lived
for many years at leading hotels and
at evening mingled socially with the
guests. There was never pleasanter
man than he at these leisure times,
nor man of better appearance. Al
though during the early years ne was
constantly in debt to his father, and
in all this social life he never men
toned his profession or his work un-
less such personal talk came naturally
into the conversation. Each year he
went to Europe and dined at the cap
tain's table, always in immaculate
evening clothes. Sometimes he went
and returned by the same ship, for
there was little to gain by staying
aboard. Everybody liked him, and
today he has an immense practice, a
considerable proportion of which he
admits frankly can be traced to his
steamship acquaintance. One day a
year ago he met lawyer of about
his own age and degree of success at
their club.
"I'm going abroad Saturday" !"
said the lawyer. "Come along" he
added, half in jest. The doctor hes
itated for a moment in thought. "All
right" he said. "What boatf -
The lawyer told him and then asked
with some surprise how he could man
age to be away on such short notice,
and if he had intended to take his va
cation at that time. "I've been over
eighteen times" said the doctor,
with a genial smile, land for the
same reason that you have gone and
are going. Well work the boat to-
gether, you and l."
