The Value of Anpearance.

No woman Is so good, intellectual. or beautiful that she can afford to be careless in her dress.
 No woman, If she would be of in- fiuence, can afford to nag or worry or fret
 No woman has any right to make herself unattractive. The woman who neglects her appearance, because she thinks 1t doesn't make any difference to her family, is not only indifferent to her power but is lazy, and shirking her duty besides.

Mistaken Economy.

It is a waste of money to ever buy a cheap embroidery silk. Too much time and nerve force is put on even a comparatively simple piece of work to run the risk of having it ruined at the first washing A silk that runs is an abomination, and most of the cheaper silks are liable to that defect.
 Do without embroidery if you will, but never economize on the materials of which it is made

daughter. who would make the voyage with
them.
Bridge, after seeing them below, went for
ward to the windlass, with his brain reellng as
it had reeled on the forecastle deck of the
liner. The Captain was the breezy person
who had noticed him scrubb1ng paint, the
daughter the child that had come to him on
lookout whom he still imagined as child,
but now grown to womanhood and with the
same pure clean cut face, the same wealth Of
golden hair and dark wondering blue eyes,
the living, breathing, matured, and perfected
image of the little girl that had gone to the
angels twenty years ago. He felt, as he super
vised the weighing of the anchor as he had felt
when this little girl had come forward to sing
to the school, the glorified sense of recognition,
and, added to it, the uplift of victory and
achievement, the content that comes of long
search and the finding of the thing sought. He
had not spoken word. He knew her now as
part of himself, that he had missed, and
found And she was here, in the same ship
with him! He would see her daily!
But, as a matter OF fact, he saw very little

saw to it that she took her meals with him IN
his own after cabin, and also that she took
her daily exercise on deck when Bridge was
asleep and the ship in charge of the second
mate, an unbeauteous and beauty proof old
sea dog. In the exercise of this watchful
function of fatherhood, the old man grew
more and more peppery in his manner toward
Bridge and his crew, and finally took no pains
to conceal an actual dislike for the first mate,
which no amount of professional care and fore
thought on his part could offset.
And it was all wasted energy as far as Bridge
was concerned, for more inoffensive and non
progressive lover never loved. Try as he
might, he could not bring himself to address
her when they occasionally met, unless she
spoke to him first. She seemed to carry in
her personality an inhibition on his thought,
speech, and action that prevented an over

with money IN his pocket, was able to choose
his next ship, English deep water craft,
whose rules were such as to g We him his after
noon watch below and time for study. He
furnished up his unused knowledge of arith-
metic, and in this ship found kindly dis
posed first mate, who lent him old sextant
to puzzle over and become familiar with. He
reached for the theory of seamansh1p as dis
tinct from navigation, and, procuring such
textbooks as he could find in foreign ports,
mastered the reasons of the various evolutions
which so far he had helped perform under
orders When able to, he applied for and
passed a second mates examination, and Won
a Board of Trade certificate. Then he bought
himself a SeXtant.
He made two voyages in this ship, when
sick and dying second mate left vacancy,
and this vacancy was filled by Bridge, who
had attracted the Captains attention by his
progress was more rapid. He reached farther,
laying in for private use magazines and stand
ard works of the worlds literature, and gave
himself that quiet self confidence SO valuable
in conversation and so difficult for seaman
to acquire. His voice, while losing of
its power to be heard against the wind, be
came softer and evenly modulated. Few could
have told, from his manner and personality,
that he had not gone through the usual course
of an English apprentice, with capital of
good home influences to start with, and pro-
lection from bad as he advanced No captious
shipowner's wife would have said he was not
a gentleman.
IN seven years from the birth of his ambition,
with an English masters certificate and an
American ocean license to his credit, he shipped
first mate of a large skysailyard American
ship at New York, and at the orders of the
agent who had engaged him took her down to
the Horseshoe to await the Captain, who was
also the owner, he said, and was to Join her
on the day of sailing. The Captain came on
the tug that was to tow them to sea, and
stepped aboard; brisk bewhiskered and pep

break all down over the Begats. they Couldnt
understand. But there it is,-anyone can see
how such a mystery as that would arouse the
curiosity of those people to the boiling point.
Harris has had many adventures. He has
more adventures in year than anybody else
has in five. One Saturday night he noticed
bottle on his uncle's dressing bureau. He
thought the label said :" Hair Restorer,' and
drenching and sousing with it and carried it
back and thought more about it. Next
morning when he got up his head was a bright
green! He sent around everywhere and
couldn't get substitute preacher; SO he had
to 60 to his church himself and preach-and
he did it. He hadn't a sermon in his barrel
as it happened-of any hghtsome character,
so he had to preach very grave one,-a very
serious one,-and it made the matter worse.
The gravity of the sermon did not harmonic
with the gaiety of his head, and the people
sat all through it with handkerchiefs stuffed
in their mouths to try to keep down their
JOY. And Harris told me that he was sure he
never had seen his congregation-the whole
body of his congregation-the entire body OF
his congregation absorbed in interest in his
sermon from beginning to end before. Always
there had been aspect of indifference, here
and there, or wandering, somewhere; but this
time there was nothing of the kind Those
people sat there as if they thought, Good
for this day and train only! We must have all
there is of this show-not waste any of it,
And he said that when he came down out of
the pulpit more people waited to shake him
by the hand and tell him what good sermon
it was than ever before. And it seemed pity
that these people should do these fctions in
such a place,-rght in the church, when it
was quite plain they were not interested in
the sermon at all; they only wanted to get
near view of his head.
Well, Harris said-no, Harris didn't say,
say-that as the days went on and Sunday
followed Sunday, the interest in Harris's hair
grew and grew; because it didn't stay merely
and monotonously green, it took on deeper
and deeper shades of green; and then it would
change and become reddish, and would 60
from that to some other color, purpish,
yellowish, blush, and so on,-but it was never
solid color. 1t was always notified And
each Sunday it was little more interesting
than it was the Sunday before; and Harris's
head became famous, and people came from
New York and Boston and South Carolina
and Japan and so on, to look. There wasn't
seating capacity for all the people that came
while his head was undergoing these various
and fascinating mottings. And it was good
thing in several ways, because the business
had been languishing little, and now lot
of people joined the church so that they could
have the show, and it was the beginning of
prosperity for that church which has never
diminished in all these years.

pEV JOSEPH T. HARRIS and have been
~ visiting General Sickles. Once, twenty
or twenty-five years ago, just as Harris was
coming out of his gate Sunday morning to
put into his hand. He read it Immediately,
and then, in a manner, collapsed. 1t said
General Sickles died last night at midnight"
He had been a chaplain under Sickles through
the war
1t wasn't So But no matter,-it was so to
Harris at the time. He walked along,-walked
to the church,-bu his mind was far away
All his affection and homage and worship of
his General had come to the fore. His heart
was full of these emotions. He hardly knew
where he was. In his pulpit, he stood up and
began the service, but with voice over
which he had almost no command. The con-
gregation had never seen him thus moved be-
fore in his pulpit. They sat there and gazed
at him and wondered what was the matter !;
because he was now reading, in this broken
voice and with occasional tears trickling down
his face, what to them seemed quite unemo-
tional chapter, that one about Moses begat
Aaron, and Aaron begat Deuteronomy, and
Deuteronomy begat Saint Peter, and Saint
Peter begat Cain, and Cain begat Abel, and
he was going along with this, and half crying
his voice continually breaking. The congrega-
ton left the church that morning without be-
ing able to account for this most extraordinary
thing-as it seemed to them. That man
who had been a soldier for more than four
years, and who had preached in that pulpit so
many, many, times really moving sub
iects, without even the culver Of a lip, should

was in itself a great compliment to
him as a lawyer and a statesman. He
spoke for twenty minutes and explain
cd the bill in a clear, concise, lucid
style, that attracted close attention.
We all knew when he finished that
the House had another very profound
lawyer In Its membership. His talk
was that earnest and emphatic, and SO
easily understood that ut least fifty
members have remarked to me Of the
Hubbard speech in terms of the high-
est praise and commentator. They
remarked that Hubbard proved himself
all at once rs one OF the half dozen
actually big lawyers OF the House as
we'll as one of the most courageous
debaters. The remark was also fire..
quent that Uncle Joe made no mis-
take when he put Hubbard on the In
terstate and foreign commerce COM
mittee. We of the West Virginia del.
egation are proud of the Hubbard rec
ord and know that his constituents
will appreciate the high admiration
that exists for their congressman.
