SIGN OF THE CROSS
ITS USE UNIVERSAL THROUGH
OUT RUSSIA.
Grave and Aged, Young and ciddy,
Are Alike in Their Frequent En-
ployment Of Sacred Emblem
of Christianity.

The Russian is crossing himself all
day long When he first comes forth
in the open air in the morning, if no
church be in sight from his own door.
he listens for the first sound of some
bell, then turning toward it, crosses
himself with great fervor, to insure
a blessing on the undertakings of the
day He crosses himself before and
after each meal When you make
bargain with him he crosses himself
that ii may prosper. When the peas
ant who is to drive you takes the
reins in his hands, he crosses himself
to keep away from accidents, and
every steeple he passes gets the same
mark of respect. Sometimes the edi-
fee thus saiuted is so far off that the
stranger wonders at the quickness
show ia discovering it, and is often at
a loss to discern the distant hamlet
where it stands.
In Ike manner, the person sitting
beside you in any public conveyance
crosses himself every time you start
with new horses. If you give a child
a piece of money, its little hand is up
in moment TO make the sign of the
cross by way Of blessing and thank
ing you No Russian ever passes a |
church without pausing when he
comes opposite the center to make the /
sign of the cross. Il is not alone the /
grave and aged who pause at these
places. but also the giddy and young.
You have just seen some gray-haired
general do it but wait one minute-a
laughing band of youngsters are COM
ing up. Now they are opposite the
church or the shrine-their mirth and Il
their talk have ceased-each crosses
himself devoutly-utters a prayer or
-wo-you see the lips moving-and
hen they pass gravely on, the laugh
md jest being resumed only when
hey are some way off.
So far is this crossing custom car
led that when a Russian enters your
Dom he cannot say good morning"

WORST OF ALL.

Mr.. Lane, Mr.. Hobart and Mr..
Meek had been off fishing the day be-
fore. They had gone unexpectedly
from the postofice, where they met,
and neither Mrs. Lane, Mrs. Hobart
nor Mrs. Meek had been informed of
their whereabouts until nightfall.
"And it did beat all what poor luck
we'd had p said Mr.. Lane when the
three friends met the next day.

we kept staying in the hopes of fetch
ing home something that would show
why we'd stayed, but she said we'd

would be one while before she'd have

"Maria spoke of my Clothes" said
Mr.. Hobart forlornly. 'She pointed
out the way the dampness had cockled

VINEGAR AND ITS USES.

The old-fashioned home remedy
should never be depended upon in
cases of illness when good physician
can be called. For triAing ailments,
however, some of "grandmother's
remedies" may be depended upon.
Pure cider vinegar, for instance,
used to figure largely among house
hold remedies, and may safely be used
now when other remedies are not at
hand.
AS refreshing and cooling drink
for feverishness and as sedative try
fifteen drops of vinegar In a glass of
sugar water.
A tablespoonful of vinegar in a
glass of water to which have been
added teaspoonful of salt and big
pinch of cayenne pepper makes an
excellent gargle for sore throat and
inclination to cough caused by falling
OF the palate.
For the bathing of fever patients or
for patients afflicted with night
sweats it is an excellent substitute for
alcohol.
A vinegar compress will stop al
most any headache, and it is good
preventive of discoloration when i'm
mediately applied to bumps and
bruises.
Bathing the forehead and wrists
with vinegar will bring one out of
fainting fit.
Vinegar sprinkled on hot shovel
sweetens the stale sick room air and
proves an excellent disinfectaut.
A wineglassful of vinegar with a
teaspoonful of salt added, given four
times day in teaspoonful doses, will
cure diarrhna and as an antidote
for poisoning by alkaloids and lye,
and all narcotics, is highly recon-
mended."
In the kitchen vinegar has several
uses which are often overlooked by
the cook who knows its use only in
salad dressing or picking.
A little vinegar added to the water
in which fish is boiled will remove
the strong, oily taste.
When added to the water in which
fowl is boiled vinegar tends to make
the flesh more tender.
If your beefsteak is tough, rub it
with vinegar, let it stand for few
hours, and you willregard your butch
er more kindly.
A little vinegar added to butter and
sugar is an excellent remedy for
hoarseness.

THE PRETTY WOMAN.

AS a general rule men admire
girl who is bright, entertaining COM
panion and who has ever kind word
and pleasant smile for those around
her. They admire the girl who is al
ways neatly and becomingly dressed,
no matter if the materials used are in
expensive.
The girl who can adapt herself to
any society and who never puts on
affected airs is always sure of popu-
larity. From the attitude which many
men adopt toward pretty and fascina-
ting girls it is evident that their
thoughts are upon certain maxim
of an old French diplomatist, who said,
"Never marry pretty or fascinating
woman. Admire her from distance,
if you like, but do not tie her up to
you by the bonds of matrimony after
the wedding one wants something be-
sides smiles and charm" Men in
variably admire charm and prettiness
in woman, but unless these qualities
carry with them certain other attrac-
tions they look elsewhere for their
brides.

A THIRD PRAYER.

II was driving across the country
in New Hampshire last summer on
business" said the Boston drummer,
"and jolt on the farmers wagon
threw me out on my head and bruised
me so badly that 1 was laid up at
farmhouse for two weeks. The farm
er was a good hearted but se-fsted
man, and as soon as l recovered con-
sciousness he began to worry as to
what he ought ocharge me. I Icaught
scraps of conversation and made out
that he wanted to do the right thing,
but did not want to let me off too
cheaply. The day before l was to go
he had another talk with his wife, and
she advised him to make it an object
of prayer. He went to the barn and
came in half an hour later to say:
"Wall, Hammer, I've been prayin'
oyer that feller's case, and as nigh as
1 can make out orter charge him
about SIS week."
eff you did that / should be asham-
ed to look him in the face ag 'in,' she
replied. you'd better go'n pray
ag'in."
"He held out for time, but finally
sought the barn once more. When
he came back he said:
81 guess SIS was little steep,
Hammer. AS 1 see it now I shall
charge him only $Io."
Samuel, was you in real airnest
when you prayed :" she asked.
81 was"
"Then there S sunthin' wrong some
where. It hain't worth no such price
as that, and the nayburs would call
us robbers. Go back to the barn
once more and this time kneel in a
new place."
''But don't see how I'm to git it
below $Io," he protested.
wall, go'n try"
He went away and was gone a
longer time, and when he came back
there was smile on his face.
what is it this timer" she asked.
"Seven dollars week, and I'lldrive
him to town tomorrow.
"That' good, ,Samuel-that's good.
That fair price, and when he knows
that you've prayed three times over it
and had to give up your farm work
most of the time to rub his bruises he
won't kick. If he does you kin jest
stick to your price and lay all the
blame on the Lord. ."-/oe Kerr.

FIDELITY OF TIE DOG.

This eloquent tribute to the dogs
faithfulness was uttered by the late
United States Senator George Graham
Vest during an argument in a dog
case before Missouri jury at date
and place now unknown
Gentlemen of the jury-The best
friend man has in this world may
turn against him and become his ene-
my. His son or daughter that he has
reared with loving care may prove un-
grateful. Those who are nearest and
dearest to us, those whom we trust
with our happiness and our good name,
may become traitors to their faith.
The money that a man has he may
lose. 1t flies away from him, per-
haps when he needs it most. A mans
reputation may be sacrificed in a mo-
ment of i'll considered action. The
people who are prone to fall on their
knees to do US honor when success is
with US may be the first to throw the
stone of malice when failure settles
its cloud upon our heads. The one
absolute, unsel6sh friend that man
can have in this selfish world, the one
that never deserts him, the one that
never proves ungrateful or treacher-
Gus, is his dog.
Gentlemen of the jury, mans
dog stands by him in prosperity and
in poverty, in health and in sickness.
He will sleep on the cold ground,
where the wintry winds blow and the
snow drives 6ercely, if only he can be
near his masters side. He will kiss
the hand that has no food to offer, he
will lick the wounds and sores that
come in encounter with the roughness
of the world. He guards the sleep of
his pauper master as if he were a
prince. When all other friends de-
sert he remains. When riches take
wings and reputation falls to pieces
he is as constant in his love as the
sun in its journey through the heav-
ems. IF fortune drives the master
forth an outcast in the world, friend
less and homeless, the faithful dog
asks no higher privilege than that of
accompanying him to guard against
danger, to fight against his enemies;
and when the last scene of all comes,
and death takes the master in its en-
brace, and his body is laid away in
the cold ground, no matter if all other
friends pursue their way, there by his
graveside will the noble dog be found,
his head between his paws, his eyes
sad but open in alert watchfulness,
faithful and true even unto death"
