JEWELssToDAY AND YESTERDAY

In no department OF dress he's the
taste changed so much in the last half
century as IN jewels. In early Vic
torian days and much later no woman
who had any respect for herself would
have worn a Jewel that was not genu-
inc. and her Jewel box contained a very
limited assortment OF costly ornaments
The modern woman has perhaps fewer
treasures, Dut she has an endless va
riety OF necklaces and pins which are
often OF trifiing cost. but which enabis
her TO give the right decorative touch
to whatever costume she wants to
wear. These things a-o OF more use 70
her than more valuable jewels would
be. and she is even suspected OF keep
ing any valuables she may possess IN
a safe and wearing limitations This
decorative value OF the latter Is just
as great as that Of the real ones. and
if any accident should happen TO them

The farm home is certainly as I'M

chardist or the stockraiser. Many OF
the farmers institutes in Indiana are
sunDlemented by the women's auXil-

have already done much for the up

The Way Of Charity.

Question the kind Of charity that
does not let it's left hand know what
it's right hand doeth; that suffereth
long; that vaunteth itself; that leaves
the ninety-and-nine for the one;
rather than see whether wrestling
with the dim brute powers of fact,
followed by effective action, publish
ing of work done, might not have
saved the ninety-and-nine where it
saved but me-. Real charity goes
after the one only where, and be-
cause, it will benefit the ninety-and-
nine. Charity may be as selfshly
studied as trade, and benefits may
be derived therefrom, but a~lms-giving
is too often the charity of the selfish.
Charity reaches the heart via the
brain. Charity teaches. Charity
calls nothing common or unclean.
Charity uses the money of capitalists,
the method of business men, the ap-
peal of the cripple, the widow, the ad-
vertisement, of success achieved.
Charity fights to win. Let us in fu-
ture see to it that Jul charity is OF
the kind that never fails.-New Idea

Character in Houses.

Houses can have a great deal Of
character. Some Of 1t comes from the
way they are built and their sur
r~oundings, of course, but more Of 1t
from the life that is lived in them.
People who live a gloomy, starved
and narrow life cannot conceal the
fact from their guests, even though
they assume a different manner while
their guests are in the house. The
rooms themselves tell the tale in a
certain ~barrenness and dreariness
that the homes of such families get.
On the other hand, who has not
been in houses that breathed cheer
the moment you entered them? 1t
was in little things-the books and
trifes lying about, the chairs in just
the right places for comfort, the cush-
ions, and the expression Of the walls
and windows-for walls and windows
do have expression. But 1t was all
the difference between a home people
like to visit and the other kind.-New
York Tribune.

Life at Greenaway Court was filled
with Just such sports as boys dearly
love-hunting, fishing, riding, asso-
citation with two old soldiers who de-
lighted in telling their adventures to
the eagerly listening boy beside them.
and a little real defending OF them
selves against the Indians, who at
tackled the house one night. George
was a natural woodsman and hunter.
No art or craft of the woods, known
to white man or Indian, was unknown
to him, and his knowledge always re-
suited in a full game bag whenever
he allowed himself a day in the
woods. At Greenaway Court George
had much of his favorite sport, and
on one occasion shot a big black bear,
measuring over five feet from snout
to tail. Lance, who had learned the
art of curing in the woods, soon had
the pelt in excellent condition to be
presented to Georges mother.
Billy, the faithful black boy, who
accompanied George everywhere, pre-
ferred the life at Mount Vernon, for,
as he said, dee amt no Injuns at
Mount Vernon and de black folks git
jes' as good whites in de kitchen as
de white folks-tuckey an grady, an
all de puddin' OATS lef' over, plenty
of 'lasses and heaps O. good tings."
Georges boyhood passed rapidly
away, occupied as he was with mans
responsibilities. The young man
Washington, the master of Mount
Vernon, to which he succeeded upon
his brothers death; the soldier Wash
ington, the statesman Washington,
the President Washington, were but
the boy Washington developed. In
all these stations he applied the same
intelligence, the same spirit - the
spirit of justice. gentleness, chivalry,
truth and piety.

also bet when playing cards, of which
he was fond.
His mouth was large and he had a
habit of clinching his jaws when in a
serious mood.
He had portraits of himself painted
by Peale, Wright, Ramage, Trumbull,
Savage, %Sharpless, G. Stuart and
others, of which no n car be &C
cepted as entirely satisfactory.
He was a hearty eater, and at times
drank deep, but never to the point of
excess. He always served wine at
meals.
He was a moderate wine drinker,
but did not use tobacco, although he
raised it for export.
Like Lincoln, he was fond Of the
theatre, and attended whenever he
had the opportunity.
He could swear with surprising
vigor and earnestness, and at times
was known to get into towering fits
of anger.
He was always in doubt as to his
own ability and was never adverse to
receiving advice from friends.-St.
Paul Globe.

The Salt Sponge.

There are few things more invig-
Grating to tired nerves than a salt
sponge, either before going to bed
or first thing in the morning. If one
is inclined to sleeplessness the latter
time is the best, as the salt is decid-
eddy stimulating.
Sea salt car be bought in boxes
and should be kept in a bathroom
closet, or some place where it is
quickly found.
AS a brine is not made rapidly, it Is
wiser, eff the bath is to be taken in the
morning, to soak a large, double
handful of the salt in two quarts OF
boiling water over night. Keep in a
covered pitcher.
When ready to use add two quarts
of fresh water, either tepid or cold,
as preferred. If one likes to sponge
in a tub, use more salt, keeping about
the same proportions.
This brine can be used on the face
as we'll as body, and it does small
hurt if it gets in the eyes. The sting
is temporary, and the good. effects
are felt in rested eyes, as we'll as
nerves.
Such a sponge is Strengthening to
women who are unable to take cold
plunges and find a daily bath in hot
water e%nervating.
If you nave no sea salt, ice cream
salt, or even that for table use, will
answer, but it costs more and is less
beneficial.
When very tired one al add to the
salt water three or four tablespoon
fuls of alcohol. This combination Is
especially invigorating.-M. B., in
Boston Post.

INSOMNIA
Leads to Madness, if Not Remedied in
Time.

Experiments satisfied me, some 5
years ago." writes a Topeka woman,
that coffee was the direct cause OF
the Insomnia from which I suffered
terribly, as well as the extreme ner-
vousness and acute dyspepsia which
made life a most painful thing for me.
81 had been a coffee drinker since
childhood, and did not like to think
that the beverage was doing me all
this harm. But it was, and the time
came when I had to face the fact, and
prcsect myself. therefore gave up
coffee abruptly and absolutely, and
adopted Postum for my hot drink at
meals.
81 began to note improvement IN
my condition very soon after l took
on Postum. The change proceeded
gradually, but surely, and 1t was a
matter of only a few weeks before I
found myself entirely relieved-the
nervousness passed away, my diges-
tive apparatus was restored to normal
efficiency, and l began to sleep rest
fully and peacefully.
These happy conditions have con-
tinued during all of the 5 years, and
| am safe in saying that I W them

to drink it I ceased to use medicines"

Lance also taught George to fence,

admitted that in addition to master

something more important-the art
of mastering his temper. He soon
found that courage, swiftness, dexter
ity we're all necessary, but that the
man with the uncontrolled temper
was always defeated. He once said to
Lance: Ever since l was a little boy,
1 have never lost my temper before
my mother or any woman. 1t would

replied: well, son, go a little farth-
