SWEET SIXTEEN.

Tho starlight through the lattice vine
Fell slanting on her brow,
The roses white, with dew a-shine
Swayed on the wind-rocked bough,
And waved a perfume quaint and fine
Like incense round her mouth
Where dwelt mid curve and hue divine
The glamor of the South.
Just 16 years of joys and fears
Just 16 years hath she,
But her eyes are blue,
And her heart is true.
And she's all the world to me.
The rose tree hid the stars from me
But / could watch her eyes;
They shone like stars upon the sea
Soft mirrored from the skies,
Her little hands upon her knee
In folded stiffness lay
And in the dusk g1oamed winsomely
like lily buds astray
Just Is years of joys and fears
Just 16 years hath she,
But her faith is sure
And her soul is pure,
And she's all the world to me.
A silence fell. 1t seemed a spell
Had fallen on my sweet.
I saw her quivering bosom swell,
/ heard my heart a-beat,
/ spokei-but what? / can not tell,
| hardly know the rest;
But as the timid tear drops fell,
clasped her to my heart
Just 16 years of smiles and tears
Just 16 years hath she;
But the wedding chimes
Will ring betimes
For my little bride to be.

Heart and Home
d IT BY Mrs.
TrOhI0T77 AZ Elizabeth
Thompson.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am girl
OF nineteen and in love with a young
man of twenty-one, but he is of a diff
ferent religion than I, to which my
mother objects. He is very nice
young man and of an excellent char
acter. What would you advise me to
do?
My mother does not allow me to have
him call on me and I don't like to
meet him any place but home and
don't want any other fellow if 1 can
have him, because I like him better
than any other boy ever met. Kindly
let me know as soon as possible what
I will do.
ANXIOUS GIRL.
Your mother probably sees unhap-
piness ahead for you, my dear. How
ever, if you two really love each other
and have known each other long
enough to feel sure that you can get
along together without disputing on
religious matters, better get married.
OF course if he has not asked you
to marry him, you can't do that. He
would not respect you if you were
willing to meet him away from home,
though you might see each other oc-
casionaily at a friends house. If he
really cares for you and understands

Much interest has been aroused in
sthe reunion at Roberts, which will
take place on June End, the pupils
of Professor Tate having made plans
to gather in the old schoolhouse on
that day and show their former teach
er the esteem in which he is held by
them.
Professor Tate will resign as profess
sor of the school at Roberts after
having taught for the past thirty five
years-a record of which he has a
right to be justly proud. and in which
his pupils take much pride. Few men
in the county are SO beloved as is
Professor Tate, and in the city of
Pensacola, there are about one hun
dred and fifty men and women who
have studied under his direction.
1t is the purpose of the reunion to
bring together teacher and pupil on
this day in order to make it happy
memory to both, and the day will be
spent in delightful fellowship.
A special train will leave over the
G. F. & A. for Roberts, and special
street cars will also be reserved. All
who wish information in regard to
the plans for the reunion may phone

HOW TO MAKE A
SWE EFT JAR.
The Sweet Jar"

The sweet Jar"
There are rose jars that are called
sweet jars" these are for the scent
ing of halls and parlors. They are nice
in the dining-room where they can be
opened and stirred before mealtime,
and they are exquisite in the sleeping
rooms, for their effect upon the nerves
is very soothing.
AS important as the sweet jar is the
aromatic jar. This is made with rose
leaves for a base, but it does not
stop with them by any means. The
aromatic jar is heavy with spicy
doors; ii is scented with pinks, it
breatheS of cinnamon and has a sug
gestion of frankincense and myrrh.
For the best effect use the spices
sparingly and the products of the
meadows generously.
The old English recipe for the aro-
matte perfume is this:

place 8. layer of cotton betting wet
with a few drops of OH OF oergamont

In the other rooms L put one in each
corner; in the living-room we swung
the piano out and indicated a tete
a-tete on the bench and one behind the
piano. In the library L placed a four
fold japanese screen diagonally in the
middle of the room under the masses
of green from the electrolier and put
a piazza settee each side. This we
called the 'Bowerie and it was a most
admired location. OF coursed the re-
tired nature of any of the seats was
only apparent. The tete- -tetes were
plainly numbered to twenty-five.
