Emergencies-The Test of Ability.

FROM success Magazine
A man with great mental reserve. with
finely balanced judgment, with poised
character, does not waver falter in
great panic or emergencies where super
fetal men lose their heads.
Great merchants know very we'll that
many men in their employ could probably
run the business when times are flush
and money easy, but that is takes a
financial general, a long, shrewd, hard,
level head to guide great business
through hard times or a panic, when men
without great reserves go down.
1t is not much the knowledge, eX-
perience or power actually used in the
transaction of business that distinguishes
a great business man as the subtle re-
serve power which those who know him
and deal with him feel he might exert in
some great business stress or panic. This
reserve power is to the man what money
surplus, not usually drawn upon or used,
is to a. great banking institution.
One reason why so many men do such
little things all their lives. when they
might do greater things. is because they
often lack this surplus force, this reserve
power. They do not take time to prepare
for anything very great or anything out
side the usual routine.
The result is that they use all their re-
sources as they go along in the ordinary
transaction of business and they have no
great reserve of mental training. disci-
pine or experience for emergencies, SO
that when anything uncommon occurs
when crisis. hard times or a panic
comes, they go to the wall.

THE CARE OF GLASS.
How to Treat Decanters, Carafes,
Mirrors and Windows.
From the London Queen.


las brittle as glass; has passed into a
proverb. But if one buys good glass at
the outset and takes common precautions
in its use-or can beguile ones servants
into taking such precautions-there is no
reason why one should not accumulate
quite a lot of treasures.
1t does not follow that the thicker the
glass is the stronger it is. OF course
housemaids have a pleasing way of wip-
ing large pieces right out of thin glasses
But. on the other hand, thick glass sue
cumbs more readily when hot fluids are
poured into it.
In mixing hot drinks Of wine or spirit
the cool ingredients should be first placed
In the glass, while the addition of a silver
teaspoon again reduces the risk when the
boiling water is added. If nothing cool is
placed in the glass the tumbler should be
stood in a basin of very hot water, so that
the outer surface may be expanded before
the inner surface is heated.
1t is contrary to some expert opinion,
but for washing table glass cold water an
swerS the purpose best as glass is apt to
look dull and smeary when it is washed
in lukewarm or hot water. Tumblers
which have been used for milk should,
however, be washed in lukewarm water
softened with soda, and then rinsed in
cold water. Glasses should not drain long
before they are dried on clean, dry linen
cloth which is not so old and worn as to
leave fluff behind it.
Glass water jugs are just susceptible
to heat as tumblers are. Indeed, If the
jug has an inward slope or is shaped with
a neck and shoulders it is most import ant
to see that it is never washed in any
thing but cold water.
Wineglasses fall easy prey in the hands
of clumsy servant, yet the wiping of a
winegass is a very easy matter provided
that it is never held with the bowl in one
hand and the foot in the other at the
same time.
Salad bowls of cut glass, glass dishes
and cruet bottles need caution as far as
concerns the temperature of the water.
which must be cold. Should such articles
prove stubborn In cold water soaking
them in cold water with soda will soon
overcome all possible difficulties.
Decanters and spirit bottles should be
but rarely washed inside and cold water
answers we'll for the cleansing Of the out
side. When decanters become stained
inside they can be very easily cleaned
The most satisfactory method is to place
inside about a dozen small cinders the size
of peas. to pour vinegar over the cinders
and shake the decanter vigorously.
1t is true that the smell is not plea SAINT,
but the chemical action of the gas formed
by the mixture soon loosens the stains
which make the decanters so unsightly.
When the cinders have been emptied out
the inside should be rinsed with cold
water and the decanter should be turned
rack, or falling that. in large jug with
wide neck. A brisk rubbing outside
with dry linen cloth will soon restore
the brilliancy.

SOCIETY PLYING THE NEEDLE,
Most Feminine of Implements Comes
Into Fashion Again.

From the Lady's Pictorial.
Those who are quick to observe changes
in the moods and tastes of society will
tell you that the doing of fine needle
work is growing into great favor with
even the most fashionable of our mon
DANES, whose own fingers are producing
work that is fully equal to the best spec
linens of their much-lauded and perhaps
overloaded grandmothers.
A lady who has had the honor to be
the instructress of royalty in this craft
says that hundreds come to her for coun-
sci where tens came but a few years ago.
The cause of this reversion to the pur-
suits of a more placid age is not difficult
to discover. Such occupation be-
comes virtually a rest cure in this
epoch of rush and motor cars, and that
IS why many of those who have been the
most interchangeable seekers after novelty
and excitement are now among the most
Industrious Penelopes of society.
The rhythmic movement that accom-
panies the plying of the needle is pecu-
liarly soothing to the nerves. and pro-
duces much the same effect as the pray
ers of the orientals with their swayings
to and fro and their apparently vain rep
etitions. 1t is mistake to suppose that
needlewofk is injurious to the eyesight
Old needlewomen rarely wear glasses.

Castle Ashby and It's Texts.
From the Treasury.


Castle Ashby, the residence of the Mar
quis of Northampton. stands alone
among all the stately homes of Eng
land as embodying In its architectural
features texts of Scriptures in solid mason
ry set out for every one to see in the
most prominent places possible. The
porters lodge at the entrance to the
mansion bears on its cornice the inscrin
ton in Latin. 1.-The Lord preserve thy
coming in, and on the inner cornice
the text, THE Lord preserve thy going
out" The same ideas have been carried
out in the design of the balustrades of
the terraces surrounding the lawns and
flower beds, which make the gardens OF
Castle lA9hby among the most beautiful
in the Country.
The mansion itself is unique, as all its
pediments are composed of texts of Scrip
ture in Latin. Commencing at the south
end of the west wing is the inscription, in
bold letters, Except the Lord, the Keep

STYLE emphasizes some fundamental
truths in the art of literary construction.
Mr. Spencer insists on simplicity of eX-

more complex form, and short. compact
sentences in which single thought is
expressed plainly and thus conveyed to

REV. COLLINS SERMON

Rev Collins, superintendent OF the

headquarters at Jacksonville. filled the
pulpit Of the NJ. E. church Sunday
night to a large audience and made a
very fine and inspiring address en-

Rev. w. H. Coleman offered prayer
