wwmfing ThSTrinci Women of that
period lay at home on sofas whilst their
husbands went to the wars They were
nearly always painted reclining on
couches or standing up never sitting
Their stockings were invariably white
and when possible ces dames showed the
tips of thetr pretty feet encased in Greek
sandals Any attempt at tight lacing had
to be abandoned for the great art of
dress in those days was to appear loosely
and simply robed recalling in every
possible wav the beautiful Athenian
women even to the wearing of fillets and
bands across the hair In the midst of all
this simplicity French feeling asserted it
SfJT and hats were accordingly produced
which any belle Athemenne would havt
rejected with scorn Another important
and expensive item of that day was the
mittens 2u > Empire gown was complete
without these quaint adjuncts which are
found now with great difficulty Xat

The Burmese woman has few of the
troubles and pleasures of a Xew England
housewife writes Frank G Carpenter
All of her cooking is done out of doors
at this time of the year and her range
never gets out of order She builds hei
fire on the ground and her cooking
utensils consist of two or three earthen
pots These and a jar of water with a
cocosnut ladle make up the kitchen fur-
niture and our Burmese wife is not
troubled with table spreading or dish-
washing She is never worried about hei
flosr nor her baking powder The Bur-
mese use neither knives nor forks Theii
staple food is nee and a huge platter ol
this is cooked for the family and placed
upon the floor In addition there is a
bowl of curry a kind of soup gravy
like mixture which is seasoned with
fish and pepper and which is very hot
The family squat around the rice dish
and each has his own little bowl for
curry and a larger one for rice Every-
one heu himself putting his fingers
into the sice platter and taking as much
as he caa squeeze up in his hands The
food is conveyed from the bowl to the
mouth with toe hand and at the close of
the meal everyone is expected to wash
his own dishes No drinking is done
during the meal and at theend each
goes to the water jar and rinses out his
mouth I have seen many families at
meals end m no case have I seen chop
slicks for knives and forks The Bur-
mese dinner is thus a perpetual picnic

A GOOD HOUSEKEKFEn
How can I tell her
By her cellar
Cicanly shelTes and whitened walk
lean guess her
By her dresser
By the back staircase and hall
And with pleasure
Take her measure
By the way she keeps her brooms
Or the peeping
At the keeping
Of her back and unseen rooms
By her kitchens air of neatness
And its general completeness
Where in cleanliness and sweetness
The rose of order blooms

BAG FOB TRAVEUXC WltAPS
This bag will be found very convenient
in traveling as several wrap3 not in use
may be put into it and kept clean A-
piece of coarse crash or holland forms
the foundation which may be ornamented
withastripe and any simple pattern may
be worked between the stripes Red
Andalusian wool or coarse red marking
cotton will be suitable for working the
bag which should be cut twentyseven
inches wide and one yard long The
ends are sewed together ard the edges
turned oyer about three inches The
crossstitch pattern is worked upon the
turned over part and the edge is finished
by fringe The handles arc of the same
material worked with a crossstitch
pattern and are fixed to the bag by
buttons and buttonholes YanUe Blade
HOUSEHOLD OBNA1TENTS
A very effective diningroom portiere
can be made of the best quabty of burlap
Across the top workwith coarse worsteds
a border in tapestry stitch a design ol
fruit and leaves using shades of brown
purple and orange with a Utile bright
olive green If you prefer the body ol
the curtain can be plain with only a dado
and frieze or a conventional design may
bo traced here and there doing away
with the dado
Small low rockers of willow may be
painted jet black and then decorated by
a floral design A bunch of red poppies
is very effective and will not soil so readily
as the more delicate colors Bright red
nbbons in several shades are tied on the
back and front legs of the chairs It ii
well to varnish the chair before painting
the floral designs using good copal var-
nish
A chair painted in deep old gold with
a mass of purple and yellow pansics on
the seat while the back is decorated with
a band of plush in shades of purple and
tied with three shades of purple ribbon
would be a lovely ornament in any par

THE TEUTH ABOCT MOTHS
I wish youd put something in the
paper to stop people believing that fib
about moths said a pretty woman ol
philanthropic turn With that dense
stupidity characteristic of my sex I was
obliged to ask what lie Why they
are always saying in the papers that it is
not necessary to do anything to keep
moths out of furs but to wrap the furs in
cotton cloths or in papers that the moths
will not go through those fabries to get
to their native diet of Russian sable
beneath Well now that may be very
true and interesting ts a scientific fact
but as advice for saving your sables it n
simply Tommyrot I ought to know 1

I went and Ud my things up in cotton
cloth last spring I dont know why
It would have been easier just to go and
turn them into a trunk with a nickels
worth of camphor as I always had but
this other was a new and sort of learned
idea and I took up with 1 suppose
the eggs were already inijjqj

Text 4 companion offoots shall be de-
stroyed Proverbs xiu 20
May it please the court said a convicted
criminal when asked i he had anything to
say before sentence of death was passed upon
him may it please the court bad com-
pany has boon my ruin I received
the blessings of good parents and in re-
turn promised to ovoid all evil associa-
tions Had 1 kept my promise I should havo
been saved this shame and been free
from the load of guilt that hangs round ma
hke a vulture threatening to drag mo to jus-
tice for crimes yet unrcvealod I who oneo
moved in tho first circles of society and havo
been tho guest of distinguished public men
am lost and all through bad company
This is but one of tne thousand proofs that
the companion of fools shall bo destroyed
It is the invariable rule There is a well man
in the wards of a hospital where there are-
a hundred people sick with ship fever and
he will not Iw so apt to take the disease as a
good man would us apt to be smitten with
moral distemper if shut up with iniquitous
companions
In olden times prisoners wore herded to-
gether in the same cell hut each onolearned
the vices of all the culprits so that instead of
being reformed by incarceration the day of
liberation turned them out upon society
beasts not men
Wo may m our places of business be com-
piled to talk to and mingle with bad men
but he who deliberately chocres to associate
himself with vicious people is engaged in
carrying on a courtship with a Delilah whoso
shears will clip oft tho locks of his
strength and he will bo tripped into
perdition Sin is catching is infec-
tious is epidemic I will let you look over
tho millions of pooplo now Inhabiting the
uth and I challenge you to < htnrmeagooil
man who after ono year has made choice and
consorted with the wicked A thousand dol
lars reward for ono such instance I care not
howstrongyourcharactcrmaybo Associate
with gamblers you will become a gambler
Clan with burglars and you will become a
burglar Go among tho unclean and you
will become unclean Not appreciating the
truth of my text many a young man has
been destroyed He wakes up some morning
m the great city and knows no one except
the
persons mto whose employ ho has entered
As he goes into tho store all the clerks
mark him measure him and discuss him
The upright young men of th store wish him
well but perhaps wait for a formal introduo
tion and even then have soino deli
cacy about inviting him mto then associa
tions But the baa young men of tho
store at tho ilrst opportunity approach
and oiTer their services They patron
ise him They profess to know all about tho
town They will take him anywhere that ho
wishes to go if ho will pay tho expenses
For if a good young man and a bad young
man go to some placo where they ought not
the good young man has invariably to pay
the charges At the moment tho ticket is
to bo paid for or tho champagne settled for
the bad young man feels around in his
pockets and says I have forgotten
my pocket book In fortyeight hours
after tho young man has entered tho store tho
bad fellows of the establishment slap Mm on
the shoulder familiarly and at his stupidity
in taking certain allusions say ify young
friend yon will have to be broken in and
they immediately proceed to break him in
Young man in the name of God I warn you to
bewaro how you let a bad man talk fam
iliarly with you If such an one slap you on
the shoulder famdiarly turn round and give
him a withering look until the wretch
crouches in your presence Thero is no mon-
strosity of wickedness that can stand una
bashed under the glonco of purityondhonor
First I warn you to shun the skeptio tho
young man who puts his fingers in his vest
and laughs at your old fashioned religion
and turns over to somo mysteryof thoBiblo
and says Explain that my pious friend
explain that And who says Nobody
shall score mo I am not afraid of tho
future I used to believe in such
things and so do my father and
mother but 1 havo got over it Yes he
has got ovor it and if yon sit in hisxrai
pany a little longer j ou will get over it too
Without presenting ono argument against
the Christian religion such men will by their
jeers and scoffs and caricatures destroy
your respect for that religion which was
tho strength of your father In his
declining years and tho pillow of
your old mother when sho lay
adying Alas a tune will come when that
blustering young infidel will havo to die und
tfaen histhamond ring will nosh no splendor
in tho eyes of Death as he stands over tho
coach waiting for his souk
Again I urge you to shun the companion-
ship of idlers There are men hangi ng around
every store and office and shop who have
nothing to do or act as if they had not They
are apt to come in when tho firm aro away
and wish to engage you in conversation
while you aro engaged m your
regular employment Politely suggest
to such persons that you have no time togive
them during business hours Nothing would
pleaso them so well as to have you re-
nounce your occupation and associate with
j them Much of the time they lounge around
gOtrteilff he club rooms or the doors of engine
or after the dining hour stand upon
steps of a fashionable hotel or an

hunt up and arrest a culprit they seldom go
to look in among busy clerks or in tho busy
camago factory but they go among the
groups of idlers Tho play is going on at the
theatre when sudaenly there is a sctuuo in

shilling or two to get in to tho ton gallery He

idler and the man on his left hand is an idler
Shrink back from idleness in yourself and
in others if you would maintain a right posi-
tion Good old Ashbel Green at moro than
eighty years of ago was found busy writing
and some young man said to him Why do
you keep busy It is time for you to rest

What a friend wo have in JesuV
Bang a little child one day
And a weary woman listened
To the darlings happy lay
All her life seemed dart and gloomy
AU her heart was sad with care
Sweetly ran out babys treble
All our sins and griefs to bear
Sh < was pointing out the Saviour
lYho could carry e ery woe
And the one who sadlr listened
Needed that dear Helper so
Sin and grief were heavy burdens
For a fainting soul to bear
But the baby wnging bade her
Take it to tho Lord in prayer
With a ample trusting Fpint
Weak and worn she turned to God
Asking Christ to take her burden
As he was tho sinners Lord
Jeus was the only refuge
lie could take her sin and care
And ho blessed the ti eary oraau
When she camo to him in prayer
And the happy child still singing
Li tie knew she had a part
In God s wondrous work of bringing
Peace unto a troubled heart

T nAT IS THfc EXD OF LIFE
The end of life is not to do good nlthough
many of us think so It is not to win souls
a tl QU3I11 once thought so The end of life
is to do the will of God That niaj be on the
line of doing good or winning wuls or it
may not The maximum achievement of
any myis life after it is all oer w 10 have
done all the will of God No man or woman
can have done any more w ith a life no Luth-
er no Spurgeon no Wesley no Melanchthon
can hare done any more w ith their live
and a dairy maid or a scavenger can do as
c uch Therefore tre supreme principle
upon which no liae to run our lues 1 to
adhere through good report or ill through
temptation and prosperity and adersity to
the will of God wherever that may lead us
It may take you away to China or you who
are g uig 10 Africa may have to stay where
you are y u who are going to be an evan
gehst may hae togointo businofs nnd you
who are going into business may have to be-
come an evangelist But there is no happi-
ness or success in life till that principle is
taken possesion of Henry Vrummond

J ESC DIED FOR ME
Can you my d ar fneod say Jesus died
for me and now I ti ust and lovo Ilim
I know many children even who can say
t at and know and feel the of
each word Every child that goes to Sun-
day chool knows that Jesus died on the
cross to save sinners but ohf how many
th re are who have never really thought
very much of what lie suffered for us on tho
cross They have often heard those words
read IIe was wouuded for our transgres-
sion but they have never taken it to them
felves ani said lie was wounded for my
1 < Tensions Jesos dred for me It ia
my moU earnest prayer that every child
who reads this paper may understand why
it was that Jesui had to suffer on the cross
fcr us that we might be aved
bome time ago 1 was in the cemetery at
Kashv lie Tenm and I called to mind t he
touching story of a stranger who was seen
there plnting a flower over a sclliers
grava When asked Was yoLr son buried
there 4Xo w was the answer Your son
inlaw Xo A brother Xor A
relation Xon After a moment the
jtranser laid down a small board which he
hei 1 in his hand and said We I I will t ll
you A hen the war broke out I was a farm-
er m Illinois I wanted to enlist but I was
poor I hail a wife nnd eren children I
wis drafted I had no nioney to hire a sub-
stitute and so I made up my mind that I
must Ieav e my poor sickly wife and little
children and go and fight tho enemy After
I was all ready to go a j oung min whom I
knew came to me and said You have a
large family which your wife cannot take
care of I will go for you lie d d go in my
place and in the battle of Chickamauga he w3
wounded and taken to Xa > hville ho pial
but after a long tit kness he died and was
buried here Ever since I wantttl to come
toXashvilleaudseohis grave nnd so I aed
up all the money I could and yesterday I
came on and today found my dear friends
grave
With tears of gratitude running down his
cheeks he took up the small board and
pressed it down into the ground in the place
of a tombston Under the soldiers name
was written only these words He died for
meXo wonder the tears were running down
that farmers cheeks He well knew that
soldier hail sa ed his life Gladly therefore
lie tpent his time and hardearned means to
do w hat httlo ho cculd to express his lo e and
gratitude
If you had stood by the ide of that grave
and heard him say There is the grave of a
man who went m my place and died for me
but I dont care I didnt a < k him to go lie
might have staid at home if he had a mind
to what woull 3 ouhae thought of him I
thmLIhearyou tay A man that would
talk in that way ouht to be shot I say so
too But did you know that the dear loving
Jesus has died a moro dreadful death for
you and yet if j ou are not a Chrihtian j ou
do not Ioo him for it You hae never
thanked him for dying for tou You havo
never shed any tears as you have thought of
His great love for jou E P JIammomL

A Shoemakers Queer Cnstomcr
A Brooklyn shoemaker was recently
telhug me a queer story about a queer
customer of his It was to the effect
that a couple of months a o an elderly
gentleman came to him and asked wheth-
er he could have a boot made like those
worn by persons who have one leg shorter
than the other The shoemaker replied that
he certainly could but that the person for
whom it was intended would have to at-
tend personally as the making of such a
bcot was a somewhat difficult matter
44Well replied the customer with an
uneasy laugh uit is for myself
For you said the son of St Crispin
with surprise glancing at the customers
straight legs and equally perfect feet
Yes for me was the answer The
fact is this with a burst of confidence
1 ah I am about to take pait in some
private theatricals and want the boot for
that purpose
Well the foot was measured and the
boot made in due course paid for and
sent home Two days later the shoe-
maker saw in the papers an account cf
the capture of a defaulting confidential
clerk The article said that among the
elaborate disguises found in the posses-
sion of the criminal was one which was
that of a seed mendicant The make-
up included a battered hat a shabby
black coat and a boot commonly worn
by persons with shrunken limbs The
description of the defaulter tallied ex-
actly with the excustomcr of my friend
the shoemaker Brooklyn Citizen
Curiosities of Appetite
Sir J Gorst said in the English Par-
liament the other day to illustrate the
ancient truth that one mans meat is an
othe man s poison that he was once se-
verely crossexamined by a party of New
Zealand chiefs who had strong views on
the depraved English habit of eating
what they called decayed cheese He
might have further elucidated the pro-
verb with a long list of eatables in which
we delight but which certain savages
cannot even mention without a feeling of
repulsion A while ago Dr Finsch saw
hens scratching around in New Guinea
villages and learned that the domestic
fowl is good for nothing except feathers
The natives could hardly conceive that
human beings would cat such a creature
and the bare idea of lunching on eggs
was enough to make a respectable Pap-
uan ill Chicken feathers however
particularly of white heighted the
charms of the fair sex when tastily dis-
posed m their abundant frizzes and so
after all these gentle birds were not
made wholly in vain
Is It any Wander
that Dr Pierce s Golden Medical DiTorerv
outsells all ether bood and liver medicines
since it possesses such snperio caratlve prop
er ies as to warrant its manufacturers In sup-
plying it to the people as tber aro doing
