Lacenlaking.

Tacenaking is by no means so old
an industry as most persons suppose.
T,era Is no proof that it existed pre-
ions TO the fifteenth century, and the
oi5est known painting in which it APP
ooars is a portrait Of a lady in the
6Pcadenv at Venice painted by Caspac-
40 who died about 1928. The legend
concerning the origin o fthe art is as
follows
A Young fisherman of the AdTitaic
r.as betrothed to a young and beautiful
eirI of one of the isles of the lagoon.
TndustriOus as she was beautiful, the
s,rl made q new net for her lover, who
soo, II with him on board his boat
The first time he cast il into the sea
he dragged therefrom an exquisite pet
lifted wrack grass, which he fastened
IN nresent to his fiancee; but, war
bregking ont, the fisherman was pressed
into The service Of the Venetian navy.
The poor girl wept at the departure of
bpr lover and contemplated his last gift
10 her
While absorbed in following the in
tricate tracery of the wrack grass she
hogan TO twist and plat the threads
weighted with small beads which hung
around her net Little by little she
wrought an imitation of the pertifica-
lion. and thus was created the bObbin

Grass.

The rose is praised for its beaming face.
The lily for sanity wilderness;
We love this bloom for its languid
grace,
And that for its airy lightness.
We say of the oak, How grand of
girth,''
OF the willow we say. How slen-
And yet to the soft grass, clothing
earth,
Hoow slight is the praise we render!
But the grass knows well in her Sc
cret heart
How we love her cool, green raiment;
So she plays in silence her lovely part,
And cares not at all for payment.
Each year her buttercups nod and
browse,
With sun and dew trimming over;
Each year she pleases the greedy
COWS
With oceans of honey clover.
Each year on the earth's wide breast
she waves
From spring until stern November:
And then she remembers so many
graves
That no one else VIII remember.
And while she serves us with gladness
mute
In return for such sweet dealings.
We tread her carelessly under foot.
Yet we never wound her feelings.

First Postage Stamps.

The postage stamp made its first APP
pearance in 1889. Credit for its inven-
ton was due to James Chalmers, a
printer Of Dundee. who died in 1858
England adopted the adhesive stamp
under royal decree on December 81
1889, and issued the first one for pub
lie use on May 6, 1910. About a
year later the stamp was introduced
into the United States and soon after
ward came into use in Bavaria, Bel
GUM and France.
The machine for perforating sheets
Of stamps was invented and patented
by Henry Archer in 1S47. The Eng
fish postal authorities would take no
stock in it for some time, but G. F.
Muntz, member of parliament for
Birmingham. made such a firm stand
for its adoption that on August 8, 1853,
the house of commons appropriated
SIC. 900 for the purchase Of the patent
and soon afterward perforated stamps
came into general use.

But the one voice across the world
that draws me to its call.

The broad seas between us and your

There's decent neighbors all about,

It's kind souls will be about me when

But It's her word that I'm wanting, her
comfort I'd be knowing,
And her blessing on the two of US to

It's just Herself I'm longing for. Her.

The Care of Lamps.

Among the many artificial lights
there is none other that gives such
soft, warm, pleasing radiance as the
time honored kerosene lamp, and it is
still the rule in the majority of homes.
Its greatest disadvantage lies in the
constant attention necessary to keep it
clean, for not only is a smoking lamp
an injury to the eyes, but it is a mem
ace to the health as well.
The ordinary cleaning may be re-
duced to a simple filling and wiping
of lamps and a washing of chimneys.
Once a month give the lamp thor
ough cleaning. Remove the wicks from
the burners and place both in a kettle
kept for the purpose, in which should
be placed a heaping teaspoonful of sal
soda for each quart of water. Let this
boil for half an hour. Empty the
lamps of oil and wash well inside and
out. Remove the wicks from the ket-
tie wash in mild suds, rinse in clear
water, and spread in a warm place I'M
til dry. Remove the burners and wash;
the black, crusty accumulations viii
be gone, and the burners viii be bright
and shining When all are thoroughly
dry fill the lamps and place burners
and wicks in position. This cleaning re-
quires less time and brings better re-
suits than many scourings and the
light will be clear and bright. At some
seasons of the year, when lamps are
used much, it may be found desirable
to repeat this process oftener, while at
other times the intervals may be
longer

Panama Canal Nearly Dug.

Washington The Panama canal, as
originally planned and adopted by Con-
gress has been dug. This plan con-
templated total excavation of 103, 1885, 900
cubic yards of earth. The grand total
excavation accomplished to the end of
March last was 103, 2O5, 500 cubic yards,
or within 100000 of the total excavation
required for the canal as originally
planned. Changes in the plans made
subsequently by order of the war de-
partment, however, increased the total
amount of excavation to ia, $50, 1874
cubic yards. Only about 100000 900 cubic
yards, therefore, remain to be exca-
waited. Active excavation work on
large scale did not begin until 1907,
and in that year 15,765,29O cubic yards
were removed. In 1908 BIG, 1876 cubic
yards were removed and in 1909 81, $685.,
l66, making the total for the two years
72,212,9O1, a monthly average for the
entire period of over 100000 cubic
yards.

British Pearls,

The fact that pearl was discovered
in an Irish oyster recalls the fact that
at one time the coast of Britain, Ire
land and Scotland were once regarded
as excellent pearl fisheries Not only
British oysters, but British pearls, were
held in repIte in ancient Rome. It may
be added for few people probably are
aware of the fact) that at Omagh there
is still a brisk trade in pearls from
the River Strule. These, however, are
seed pearls" derived not from oysters,
but from fresh water mussels Within
living memory the Scottish pearl fish
cries brought in about 100000 a year,
and among the jewels of the British
crown is a Welsh pearl presented to
the queen of Charles II.

Changing Dress Changes Mood.

Eva changed her dress three times
day" said an old country woman
who had been visiting her niece in the
city. Seems like it's a pity to be so
taken up with the vanities," And then
honesty forced her to add But j must
say it's kind of interesting to see what
she's going to wear next" The view
which held it a weakness, if no worse,
10 give thought to our apparel, is happi-
" losing ground. People have discov-
cred that when a girl or a woman
changes her dress, she does a great deal
more than make an exhibition of her
wardrobe There is something symbolic
in the act. In the changing of garments
there is often a change of mood. The
girl who comes home from the office
tired and nervous after a hard day, and
exchanges the tailored shirt waist and
the severe skirt for a soft, fluffy little
gown with ribbons and ruffles, is far
more likely to get rest and refreshment
from her evening than if she had kept
on the costume which was a reminder
o. what she needed to forget. The pro-
cess of dressing, instead of being q tax,
Is restful The girl who comes in tired,
throws herself on the couch, and, after
an hour, goes down to dinner crumpled
and disheveled. would have used her
time more wisely if she had devoted it
TO batning and dressing. Clean clothes
and freely combed hair are an excellent
aniidote for WEAKNESS. II changing of
the garments rests the body. it is even
more effective where the mind is con-
cerned. Nervous irritability and gloom
arr somewhat dissipated by no more
severe measures than putting on
pretty gown and doing your hair in a
becoming fashion. I'm having a pink
waist made" said a sensible girl re-
Gently, FOR the days when I feel blue"
There was something very much deeper
than girlsh vanity in the selection of
that pink waist.

Doves and Pigeons.

In many places in the Bible we read
of the dove, or pigeon. Perhaps no
other bird is spoken of so often. We
read that Noah sent out a dove from
tbe ark. It came back, not having
found a place on which to rest.
He put out his hands and caught 1t
and kept it for seven days,
He then sent it out again. 1t came
back in the evening of that day and
brought olive leaves in its mouth.
Then Noah knew that the water was
being dried up upon the land.
He waited another seven days and
sent the dove out the third time. This
time it did not return.
The dove is a clean bird. In the
law of Moses it was called pure bird.
The Hebrews used it as an offering
for sin in the temple.
People who lived a long way from
the temple found it hard to carry
these birds with them.
To such people doves were some
times sold at the temple.
