IN THE HOME.

We are not angels; we are only men
and women. and we share the imperfec-
tons of manhood and womanhood. We
are not perfect apples; we are speckled
apples all of us. We do not care how
deep and sweet and tender and accordant
love NAV render the home life. it cannot
but happen that in tine close contact in
the every day opennrSS and disclosures
of the home, our bad points are sure to
come out No family is made up of per
feCtlv straight sticks, but crooked ones.
And when they are piled together in the
rloseness OF home lie the crookedness
will appear. The man and the woman
married the most utterly, married along
the whole line of their natures, must yet
find some point where there is not COM
pete contact. There is dissmilaritv of
education. Before musicians can pour
forth perfect harmony. they must bring
their instruments into perfect tune. Be
fore two hearts can perfectly strike
together they must be KEYED to the same
note, and that cannot be altogether done
before marriage. The exact, real self
! does not appear in courtShip. 1t is the
best self, the self dressed in the best
wardrobe of manners, and the sentiment
! and the sacrifice, that appears then
After marriage the self puts on its com.
mon habits for what it is. Then each real
self must adjust itself TO each real self;
then each must bear and forbear, then
must any incompatibility be met and
mastered by mutual charity which suffer
eth long and is kind and which never
| faileth.

A New Grain Discovered

A new grain. known as black winter
emmer, has been evolved after years of
study, by Professor Buffum, who con
ducts an experiment farm in the Big
Horn Basin, near Worland, Wyoming.
The grain is somewhat larger than
wheat, and is a cross of wheat and sew
eral other less known grains 1t will
grow in much drier soil than wheat
and four times as much can be raised to
the acre. 1t weighs more to the bushel
than wheat, and while hardly SO fine as
that grain for food purposes, may assist
materially in solving the general food
problem, owing to its excellence and
cheapness as fodder for the animals
whose flesh figures on the dinner tables
of men Emmer itself is not novelty.
has been raised for many centuries, and
mas Aeep given much attention by the
arme1s in Russia. l-

LITTLE THINGS oF LEE.

Why is it that we so easily forget that
the little things in life are what makes it
easy or hard? A few pleasant words.
warm hand clasp, cordial letter, are
but simple things, but thev are mighty
IN their influence on the lives of those
abou, us, adding ray Of hope to many
dlSconsolate hearts, giving bit of cour-
age TO the disappointed weary ones, and
helping to make our lives sweeter at the
same time. Few people realize how
much the little attentions of every day
life means to their associates in the
home, the church, or the business place.
1t is generally lack of consideration,
which makes one forget the tiny pleas
antries; but lack of consideration is really
one form of selfishness, and selfshness is
not considered desirable quality Re-
member that the little things of life,
either good or bad, count for more wi h
those we love than we ever know. and
we should be watchfu of our actions
and our words.

THE WOMAN WHO GIVES ADVICE.


She is very wearisome woman, tho
one who gives advice.
She does not wait until you ask for it
or she thinks that you need it.
She has it in store, and if you happen
to come along, she simply pours it into
you.
1t usually happens, too that she pours
it more freely when you can't use it. don't
want it, wouldn't nave it, and wish that
she would keep still.
She has sharp eyes as rule. They
are not bright and pretty, but restless
little beads that look as if they were
threaded with pin point, which pricks
at every glance.
If she locks, it is to criticize; if she
listens it is to suggest; if she speaks, it is
to relate her experience and to explain
her way.
You would meekly suggest that you
also would like TO come by your knowl-
edge through experience; but she seems
to be doubtful il so unimportant an indi-
vidual will ever have any of the happen
lngS that teach.
She means well, oh bless her, yes; but
she is very wearing" to mortals who
come in her way, and have mislaid their
wings.

Passing of thePigtail.

Although the queue, kss reverently
known as the plgtail, is most commonly
associated in the public rind of today
with the people OF China, md although
that fashion of wearing the lair ha prob
ably been attributed by the lhou.htless
III many instances to what most of us
were taught by our school biographies to
regard is the half-clvIlzed CONDITION Of
the Chinese. it is fact well worthnoting
that the Chinese are by no m@ns the
only nation on earth 10 have sIbwn re-
spect and partially to the qued. The
recent edict sanctioning the abe ition of
the pigtail in China reminds thet london
Chronicle that it was not so V ry long
ago since the pigtail disappeded not
merely from the British army and navy,
but everyday civilian life in England.
Waist long pigtaiIs were the fashionable
wear in England about I74o. and before
that the bag wig had been adorned with
a pigtail topped up in black silk FLAG.
AS late as 1858 an old gentleman was
seen in Cheapside with his gray hair tied
behind il a short queue, and it appears
that even today may be found in England
a relic of the pigtail; for, according to the
Chronicle, the three pieces of black vel
vet on the dress tunics of officers in the
ROYAL Welsh Fusiiers are the remains OF
the ribbon with which the queue was tied
