Motherly Admonition.

A New York woman of great
beauty called one day upon friend,
bringing with her her 11-year-old
daughter who gives promise Of be-
coming as great a beauty as her
mother.
It chanced that the callers were
shown into a room where the friend
had been receiving milliner. and
there were several beautiful hats ly-
ing about. During the conversation
the little girl amused herself by ex-
amining the milliner's creations. Of
the number that she tried on, she
seemed particularly pleased with a
large black affair which set off her
light hair charmingly. Turning to
her mother the little girl said;
II look just like you now, moth
er, don't II"
"Sh!" cautioned the mother, with
uplifted finger. Don't be vain,
dear. ."-Lippincott's.

Tax Payers Take Notice.

The delinquent tax payers should
bear in mind that there are only
fourteen more business days before
the books close, and the penalty is
added. The number who have not
yet paid their taxes is unusually
large, and unless great many pay
before the final rush, it will be i'm
possible for the treasurer to issue
recei$ is to all during the closing
days. Better give this important
matter early attention.

The Appropriate Hymn.

At Baptist convention in La
Grange some years ago the preach
er who delivered the convention
sermon read from manuscript. He
used small sheets fof paper, and as
he read one he laid it aside on the
pulpit. As the sermon was long land
many leaves) the minister in con-
cluding, said I'VE will close the
service by the choir selecting some
appropriate hymn" And that choir
by association of ideas perhaps,
unconsciously sang, Leaves. nothing
but Leaves"

yer, or do whatever is necessary
0 the old garments to have them
n readiness when the time comes

rSsible to do SO, the forehanded
housewife will provide material for
all the common sewing and before
he spring work with garden and
Foultry comes on she will have
made up all the underwear, every
Jay dresses, aprons, shirts, etc., and

1t is a satisfaction, and an econ
pmy as well, to have good patterns.
IA good pattern is help in doing
the work quickly and easilysand no
