A PLEASING MANNER.

1t is a curious fact that nothing
plays greater part in woman's ca
reer than a charming manner. Yet,
nothing is taught and cultivated less.
To be gracious without being patron
izing on the one hand or too gushing
on the other, all this requires cultiva-
ton and is not attained in day.
That illustrative attribute known
as charm is still more difficult, if not
impossible, to achieve. 1t is not in
born and not to be acquired, strive as
we may ever so hard. Certain it is
that this charm is the most to be de-
sired of all the good gifts the fairy
godmothers have to bestow. Beauty
may fade and riches may fly away
and health and youth be swallowed
up by the years as they pass, but that
charm will ever remain, more potent,
more soul l-satisfying, than beauty and
riches and even youth itself. How
often does not one see this exemplifi-
cation in society by the popularity of
some woman who apparentlypossesses
little or nothing to justify success and
who, nevertheless, is courted and ad-
mired and of whom every one says !:
Isn't. she charming?" You agree
that she is, and wonder why. Other
women you know, better looking,
younger, better dressed-and yet they
lack just something that attracts
others. What is it, you ask your
self, and you come to the conclusion
it is something which, for want of a
better name, you call "charm."

acre farm and who has no female rela-
tives to come around and try to boss
the ranch. I will agree to cook din

an early grave and lavish upon him a
wholesome affection and to see that

I'm GOD WE TRUST"

The use of the legend In God We
Trust" on some of the coins of the
United States grew out of-ac
cording 10 a writer in the Chicago
Mews-a letter written by Maryland
farmer to Salmon P. Chase when he
was secretary of the treasury. The
Mews writer says: "The letter was
written in November, 1861, the wri-
ter urging that we should, as Chris
tian people, make some recognition
of the Deity on our coins. Mr.. Chasd
referred the letter to Director POLLOCK
of the mint, who approved the SD
gestion and proposed one of the
gends, Our Country, Our God,
God Our Trust Mr.. Chase then
referred the matter to congress, an
again in 1862 and 1868 he urged tina
the matter be acted on. Finally, OF
April ~, 1864, congress authorized
the coinage of ia two-cent bronze piecc>
and on it was stamped the legend,
In God We Trust, instead of E Pitt
ribus Unum.' Subsequently, on
March 3, 1865, the director of the
mint, with the approval of the secre-
tary of the treasury, was authorized
to place the legend on all gold and
silver coins susceptible Of that addition
thereafter to be issued. The legend
is taken from the following line ia
The Star Spangled Banner = And
this be our motto: In God is ouF
trust"

WATERING HORSES.

on hygiene says that human b

Now this is the Norwegian pt
with horses, and according t
veterinarian, lyon never see

tributes this to the water furnished
with their meals; and while that may
be somewhat extravagant, the custom
is worth considering. Every one
who has taken care of a horse has
noticed that water before meals is not
relished, while if it is given in large
quantities directly afterward it tends
to wash the grain too rapidly through
the digestive tract. In Norway ev-
cry horse has bucket of water be-
side his manger, and. as he eats, he
drinks also. It is interesting to see
how the Norwegian horses relish their
water with their meals. Now they
sip little from the bucket, now they
eat mouthful, Their another sip, then
another mouthful, just like rational
human beings.

ODD OLD BELIEFS.

The superstitions which have clus-
tered about the closing scenes of hu-
man life are almost innumerable.
Some, perhaps the greater portion,
now seem to be meaningless, but
few had in early days a significance
which they have since lost. The
stopping of the clock at the moment
a death occurs in the house is still
practiced in many families in this
country and Europe and originated
in the fact that according to the laws
of several European states it was me-
cessary to have evidence of the exact /
moment of births and deaths occurring
in the royal family. When a king
died an attendant was always prese 81,
whose duty it was to stop the cloclk
in the royal apartment at the momentN
when death occurred, and the time
piece was thus q mute EeeQEd of Of the
scent Of this practice to aristocrstc
and finally to families of low degree
was easy, and many persons adopted
it as a mere superstition without
knowing anything of its former sig
ni6cance.
Turning the looking glass to the
wall is superstition which is said to
have originated in the country dis
tricts of Germany during the days |
when mirrors were novelties. Mir
rors of glass with quicksilver backs
are said to have been made at Venice
in 1900 A. D. and were first made in
England in 1873, but did not conel
into common use among the middle
classes until the beginning Of the last
century. At first they were regarded
with superstitious awe, the idea being
that the reflection Of the face in the
mirror was a sort of spector, or Sec
ond soul, of the individual.
When death occurred the looking
glass which the person was accustom-
ed to use was turned to the wall, lest
his ghost should be disturbed by 9TH
ers using the mirror before his spir->
it had finally departed from the neigh
borhood, there being an idea that the
spirit of the departed fingered about
the vicinity for several hours or per-
haps days after it had separated from
the body.

FoR "THE UNIoN.n
THE RAMB L z 3.

BY EDWIN HIGGINS.
There Is q little cottage
At crossing of the roads,
Nesting amid the naples,
Crowned by rambling rose.
The rambleris 90 graceful,
It loves to climb wall:
And from the gable cornice
In fragrant clusters fall.
It loves to bloom in sunshine
Like rubies blughing red;
And radiance lends to darkness
When sunshine hides her head.
Like banners wave it's blossoms
Ger palace Of Q king,
When he to the festive breeze
His royal ensigns fling.
Oh, no, there are no banners,
Fairer than crimson rose,
When It to earth and skyland
Its wondrous charms disclose.
l wonder whence the rambler
In crimson glory came2
Where borrowed all its splendor =
Its glowing orifiamme2
am sure IN the beginning,
The King did speak the word,
And sea fncarnadine
His loving message heard.
Long DER the little cottage
Wave banner Of the King!
About thy rudy blossoms
Ny hearts blood loves to cling.

BE A GOOD LISTENER.

The wise woman is good listener
as we'll as a good conversationalist.
It is much more of an art to draw out
the best thoughts of other people than
it is to converse we'll oneself.
One often meets intelligent persons
who never enter a room full of peo-
pie without monopolizing the conver-
sation. Their faculty for useless chat
ter is unlimited and their conversation
is literally interspersed with the pro-
noun 1. Well bred people have a
wholesome dislike of talking about
themselves. One never knows hoW'
much they know or what wonderful
sights they have seen unless some cir
cumstances occur to bring it out. -
It is left for the person of feXi
and narrow vision to keen
less chatter. 1t is the
