How to Hang Dress Skirts, Some Not Hung, and About Right Care
 of Bodices.

There are dress skirts that should be hung upside down. Yes; I admit it is nuisance, but to hang them so will keep the frills and founces fresh and make them stand out as they should, and it Is not hard to hang a skirt so if one has the room.
 And there are, also, skirts that should not he hung at all One of the very long dress boxes which the dress makers now use to send frocks home in will hold such d skirt, or box couch will be convenient for it.
 Chiffon and gauge and mousseline and other stuffs of that sort will sag if they are hung and the skirt folds will become stretched and dragged and lose their floating cloudy look l have seen frocks of net or chiffon look old and out of shape after being worn once or twice. just because they were hung up carelessly.
 A box couch with trays is a splen- did thing One can arrange it easily; and many skirts can be put in it with out laying one on another Even the very sheer silks that are being used now sag if hung.
 The bodices must sometimes be laid away, one on top of another It is pity; but one has so many blouses and frock waists that there cannot al ways be a separate drawer or shelf or box for each one It will always pay to put tissue paper in the sleeves and the bust of every waist that is to be put away.
 "A bother, of course. That goes without saying; but it keeps the bod ice or blouse in shape and keeps it fresh. There are such charming blouse boxes to be bought now-cre- tonne covered and one above another in a wooden frame.-N. Y. Sun.

Larqe Apple Crop.

At Rogers the apple crop is grow ing fast, and as the apples have begun to show up on the trees the fact be, comes plain that the crop will be larg. CT than was at first expected. It is now estimated that from 800 to 1000 cars will be shipped from Rogers dur ing the season and fall While there probably are not as many apples on some of the trees as heretofore, there is q larger number of bearing trees in the county at the present time than ever before, and the total crop will be pretty large.

Growing Fence Posts.

MT Polly, man from Boston, has a tract of 160 acres on top of a mountain eight miles from Fayetteville and is going to have an orchard of black locust to make fence posts. He has 10000 OF 20,000 sprouts now and will plant seed. They will grow in five or six years large enough for fence posts and, MT. Polly says, will pay better than an apple orchard.

likely anyone would forget the Morn ing Light if they ever sailed in her. Man! I'd know her in the depths O perdition, the deepest hole in devil dom, where she'll sail in the hereaf- ter
 No, I didn't intend to ship in her. Jimmy Turner an I got into her after we left the navy. When we went broke a fellow wanted hands for the Morning Light, Cap'n Sam Smith, master. We hadn't heard of any par ticular Sam Smith, so on we signed with shaking hands an dry throats, willing to go anywhere or do anything for enough grog to keep alive.
 Jimmy had gone in the navy, be- cause he couldn't live ashore. He'd married and was sorry for it-made a mistake. But he'd never said any thing to me about his wife or family, and I never asked. Nobody asks ques- tions of anybody aboard men-o'-war.
 When we dropped down the bay a tug came alongside and Cap'n Smith went to the rail to greet little hatch et-faced fellow who jumped aboard. He was with a woman.
 Sammy Smith an niece" said an old shellbaek standing on the forecas- tie head, ''I thought so.
 Whats the matter?" we asked.
 "Matter! Don't you know that fel- low? That's Morrell. the worst thing in mans image that ever trod a deck plank. Come it on us as Sammy Smith, Man, if ye can get ashore, swim fer it afore it's too late. I'm too old But Morrell didn't ship men to have them do the pier-head jump. We were in for a western ocean cruise in one of the packet ships who will leave her mem ory a black and bloody track in the minds of sailor men.
 Before we'd crossed the stream, Mor- rell had begun on us. But-well, nev- CT mind. It would make the tales of old-time horror seem like play to tell one-half of what took place in a week. Save ye, Gantline. 1 could sit here and tell you things till morning-and each one would make you shiver. We had five men missing" before the voyage was half over. Jimmy and I came in for some of it but even that tiger shark aft knew when he had reached the limit-and We were men-o'-war's men.
 "One night there was a row aft and there were cries of a woman. Jimmy heard them and started out on deck with his sheath knife, but We held him, and four of us got the marks of the knife to remember how we saved him.
 After that Jimmy was quiet and ugly. He never spoke to anyone. There were no more men in the crew, only square-heads and Dutchmen, and they never go aft.
 Il wouldn't consent to go alone when Jimmy gave me look that told his game Soon I noticed he wouldn't turn in at night and then I knew it was coming. l stole aft to see the end.
 'I found him standing close under the break of the poop, talking in a whisper to some one. Then I caught the glint of a skirt and recognized the voice of the woman
 "Its no use, Jim. let me live ii out. she said. 1t won't last long.

New Historical Drama.

Paulus." a five-act historical drama, as
1t b called. has just been given at Erfurt,
Germany. with great effect The play is
the work of Pastor Robert Folke of Frank
furt. and deals with the life of st. Paul
In much the same style as the Oberammer-
gau plays deals with Christ's passion. Two
hundred persons are employed in the repre-
sentat1on. and the scenery and costumes
are on a scale OF great magnIheence, and
historically accurate In detail.
Probably the most effective scenes are ST.
Paul before the Areopagus at Athens and
In the barracks OF the Pretorian guards at
Rome Pastor Fake makes st. Paul's con-
version due to the prayer OF a girl who is in
love with him. The play. which Is on really
grand lines. contains one somewhat absurd
incident During one Of his great speeches
Paul Is made to pruphesy the leading po-
sition which Germany will one day assume
as the homo Of purifted evangelical doc
trine.
