The feat of the Cornishman, Cecil Dench, of St. Blazey, in holding his cottage for nearly four days and nights against a force of constables. by no means establishes a record in single -house sieges, for in the early days of the "Votes for Women" movement in England that ardent suffragist, Mrs. Dora Montefiore, shut herself up in h'r Hammersmith house and defier: Cie bailiffs—who were seeking to arrest her for un- paid in( -tax—during the better part of Ito ' t•tatight. SII: OF FIVE WEEKS. In 14 again, during the sum- mer of 1890, a Royalist agitator named Jules Guerin fortified a residence he owned in the Rue C'habrol, and sustained therein a siege which excited the interest, ..e� ven in a sense, compelled the timiration of Europe. . Troops moved against him. Gend- armes fusilladed his impromptu citadel. Yet he and his friends re- fused to capitulate until one mem- ber of the garrison actually died from starvtion. Then they surrend- ered, a band of gaunt, dishevelled spectres, after a siege lasting from Mistiest 12th to September 20th. Several similar instances, too, took place in Ireland during the palmy days of the Land League. At Bodyke, for example, five peas- ants kept half a regiment of British redcoats at bay for eleven days. AT BAY IN CHIMNEY. A Gweedore family sustained a siege of nineteen days, during which period the "garrison" was twice successfully relieved and re - victualed by armed peasants. i)r.

'RESPONSIBILITY OT LIVING Good to Know Tliat Men May Bo Better for Our having Lived. For none of us liveth to himself, and no man diet•II to 16111s(4f.—lto- lilans xiv. 7. Nobody is independent. :111 human lives are inseparably joi.ted. Things wo said yesterday will be recalled with pleasure or pain by somebody twenty years from now. 11 hat we did last week will snake somebody better or woreo whin our bodies have turned to dust. Life is rattler solemn business. Nub�dy is so insignificant as to be without influence. Most of us would be filled with horror if we could read the record uf our lives and see how a word we spoke carelessly started sante one on the way to ruin. And it would fill us with a bliss tht.t is like heaven itself if we could flee that there aro persons who date all the good there is in their lives to some kindly deed of ours done SIMPLY FROM IMPULSE. However much we may wish at times that we could do as we please without our deeds affecting the lives of others, yet a moment's thought will make us glad that hu- man lives are thus bonded together. There is dignity in life when we feel that a hundred years frum now men may be better for our having lived. And, on the other hand, there is responsibility in living, since after me are gone men may be worse for our misdeeds. It doubtless would I•t more pleasing if our goodness :tight bless others without our bad - ss cursing them. But you can• taut have one side without the othet any more than you can have light without shadow. If it is right til... nen should be able to help one an- other, it must be right, because it is a part of the same arrangement that they should be able to hurt one another. Sometimes we intentionally in- fluence people as when wo argue with it than to bring him to our views, but perhaps the mightiest influence is EXERTED UNCONSCIOUSLY. As the iceberg chills the air for miles around it or as the honey- si ckle makes rho air about it heavy with fragrance, so men radiate helpful or hurtful influences. Our character, whatever it may be, is contagious. It was said by a pian who was dying: "Oh, that my influence night be gathered up and buried with ate." That cannot be, how- ever much we wish it. Our influ- ence goes on blessing or blasting people forever. Of another man •t was said : "His presence always made men better." What a fine tiling that is—to have such a char- acter that when you meet people you make thorn wish to be nobler, purer, truer. FRANK M. GOODCHILD. THE S. S. LESSON l\'f1it\-17'1(1\.11. 1,1:s!sON, J1 1.1" 4. Lesson I. l'am's Second Mission- ary Journey. Golden '\'ext, Acta 16: 9. I. Planning for the Second Mis- sionary Campaign.—Acts 15 : 36-39. The lesson for to -day connects with the eighth lesson of our last quarter, which describes the epoch making gathering at Jerusalem to settle the disputed questions concerning the reception of the Gentiles iuto the church with the Jews. For some time after that Paul and Barnabas, the returned mis- sionaries, preached the word of the Lord in the home enure)} at Antioch which had sent them forth. But the missionary spirit burned within them and Paul proposed to Barnabas that they return to their mission field which needed thew more than the home city where were many preachers and teachers. He should visit his spiritual chil- dren to see how they were growing in grace. He would look at the tender vines in the vineyard he had planted to see what further care was required. These churches, so far separated from others, having received but n small portion of the troths of the gospel, exposed to temptations, to errors, and to dangers, had no small need of apostolic care and training. Barnabas was quite willing to go. Then arose a practical question between them. They needed some - ono to go with them as an assistant in many ways. Barnabas wanted to take with them his young cousin John Mark, who had started with them on their first tour, but on reaching the coast of Asia Minor where their main work was to be clone, for seine reason left the missionaries, and re- turned home. How much the dangers of a wild almost unknown country, how much the malarial sickness on the coast w inch may have attacked and weakened the young man, had to do with his return we do nut know. Barnabas had good reasons for wanting to take his cousin with him. The young man wanted to go. Doubtless he was sorry that he left the missionary company three or four years before, especially when at Jerusalem he heard the glowing accounts of their success, and was fired with new missionary zeal. He wanted to redeem his character and life. Barnabas real- ized the possibilities in John Mark. He loved him. He believed in him. He wanted to give the young man another chance, and not mar his whole career because of ono youthful mistake. And the future proved that Ile.rnabas was right in his judgment. Paul him- self in later years found that Mark had developed lieu a than of great heart, self -forgetful and courage- ous, whom he could love and trust and respect. In his two imprison- ments St. Paul mention; Nark in terms of high approval (Col. 4: 10, 11 ; Philemon 24; 2 Tim. 4 : 11). Paul on the other hand was will- ing to take the risk of havin ap his assistant a young man who ad the d him in ,f greatr fano( 1 n► ope c�iea of his life: andhad not yet preyed himself able to underte swab • dangerous journey as was now be- fore then] from which he had re- coiled three or four years before Paul was apparently in not very firm health, and it was absolutely necessary to have a perfectly re- liable helper. Both Barnabas and Paul were right, and therefore each one stood steadfastly by his own judgment. There was only ono solution of the trouble, and that was to part as friends, and make two mission- ary companies instead of one. II. New Work in Old Fields.— Acts 15 : 40 ; 16 : 1-10. Barnabas and Mark went. to Cyprus where the family of Barnabas belonged (Acts 4 : 36), and where he went with Paul on the first missionary journey (Acts 13: 4-12). Barnabas is not mentioned again in the Acts, for he did not come again within the plan of that history ; but "the choir in- visible" on earth is hoard in heaven and the records of the faithful are written in the Book of Life. Mark is mentioned again through his connection with Paul. The Companio.rs of Paul. Paul chose Silas as his companion in the place of Barnabas. Silas (a contraction of the Silvanus of the Epistles) was one of the leaders of the (nuttier chinch at Jerusalem. He came to Anwoch with Paul as their delegate after the great con- ference (Acts 15: 22). Like Paul, he was a Roman citizen (Rendall), and was in thorough sympathy with him. III. Tho Beginnings of Chris- tianity in Europe. ---Vs. 11-15. The four missionaries immediately sail from Trolls :•1 a straight. course, 60 miles to the island of Samothracia, the first day. The next day they sailed 75 miles to Neapolis (New City, Naples), the seaport of Philippi. Everything was favor- able, for they made in tw•n or three days a journey which took Paul at another time five days (.Acts 20: 0). Thence ten miles, by land or by the ri. er, to Philippi. Philippi wits nailed after King Philip of Macedon. I1is called (v. 12) the chief city of that part of Macedonia, the first in rank, and a colony, that is a Roman colony, under the emperor, and not the senate. 4— GREEN AND BLACK TEA. Popper Hales Ptay No fart in Making Green Tea. Much misapprehension exists as to the div ision of ten into the two great classes, green and black. Some wise ones insist that green tea is dried on copper plates and thus gets its color and name. This they allege as a reason for refusing green tea as unwholesome. In reality, greet) tea is made from the samo leaves as the black, al- though some varieties are best fur each of these respective kinds. in green tea the leaves are quickly brought in and placed in a double boiler and allowed to remain sur- rounded by boiling water for eight or nine minutes, the cover being frequently removed and the leaves stirred. This process makes the leaves soft and ready for rolling. Black tea is withered for front twelve to twenty-four hours and allowed to ferment from three to rix hours, when oxidization takes place, which makes it black. Both teas, after rolling, are plac- ed at once in a pan in an oven and stirred uutil they aro dry and brit - ti* to the touch and a slight tea odor is perceptible. 1111:.1P I 11101 IN IND' t, Conditions in .lute Mills and 3lode of lining of 11orl,ers. Writing from Calcutta of the jute industry, Consul -General Michael says of the wages and mode of tie- ing of the mill workers: "I visited the modern Kinnisen mill, which has a capital of $1,000,- 000, and the latest machinery made in England. It has 650 looms and produces 113,000 tons of bags and Hessian cloth in fifty weeks. This mill employes 4,000 men, women and children. "Tile wages paid to men in the mills range front $2 to $3 a month, workmen from $1.50 to $2, and buys and girls from $1 to $1.75. These people subsist principally on rice and vegetables made up in the t1 form of curry, t Inch is a peppery I Ply Y and sweetish �tnixture of rice and vegetables, with now and then chicken, (luck or goat meat. "They all chew betel nut con- stantly as a stimulant. They eat two meals a day, as a rule, one be- fore beginning work, and one after the day's wurk is done. The men and boys wear breech -clouts or dhooties, and the women and girls saris, which consists of forty yards of thin muslin wrapped in a pecul- iar way about the loins and should ors. "The people of a mill, or several mills if the mills are nearly locat- ed together, occupy a village, which is made up of huts made of mud, bricks and paha leaves woven into sheets and tacked on bamboo poles. All are thatched with a long, tough grass, used throughout India for covering huts and bungalows, and which makes a tight, cool and dur- able roof. The floor is made of clay, tamped down hard, which makes a very good floor. On this floor is spread in places matting made of bamboo grass. On this matting many of the natives throw down a cotton blanket or possibly a thin mattress, for beds. Some have a rude bed made of four posts, 16 inches high, with cross- head and sidepieces, pinned togeth- er and then crisscrossed with bed cords. There nuts' be a few rude benches, but little or no other furni- ture is to be seen in the huts. The natives eat on the floor, squatted around a pot or pan containing the food. The men and boys cat first and the women and girls afterward, taking what is left. No knives, spoons or forks are used in eating, the fingers answering all purposes. Each Indian is ambitious to own a brass jug or pot, and these brasses are handed down as heirlooms and are held as almost sacred in posses- sions. They are kept bright by scouring them with mud and water. After a meal the brasses that heve been used in any way are taken out in the street, where the women or men, as the ease may be, squat on the ground and rub them with the dust and water. MB. JI'RGLETON'S DISCOVERY No Man in a Stovepipe Hat Ever Seen Carrying a Baby. "Did you ever," said Mr. Jurgle- ton,.. see a man in a silk hat ear- rying an infant child . Never, 1 venture to say. "You do see plenty of fathers, young fathers mostly, carrying their babies and very willing to car- ry theta, indeed proud of their off- spring; but you never see such a father in a tall hat. The;: may wear fc.rty-'Icven other kinds of slats — <lerbies, soft hats, straw hats, or as minty kinds of caps; but no fa- ther carrying any infant ever wears a silk hat. "Of course there can't bo any fashion decree about this.

More People Than are Aware of It , Have Heart Disease. „ "It examinations were made of every. one, pcoplo would be surprised at the num• her of persons walking about suffering from heart disease " This startling statement wee made by a doctor at a recent inquest. " I should not like to say that heart disease is as etiminen as this would imply," said the expert, "but I am sure that the number of persons going about with weak hearts must bo very Urge." Hundreds of people go al.rmt their daily work on the verge of death, and yet do tint know it. it is only when the ahnek comes that kills them that the Unew pee te.l weak- ness of the heart is made apparent."

Cook rhubarb slowly, using no water, until done. Flavor with le- mon o-nton or nutmeg and sweeten to tests.. Split cake lengthwise and finish as with strawberries. Strawberry Jelly and Butter. Cap and wash two quarts of strawberries. Cut up three large stalks of rhubarb into small pieces. Place in granite or porcelain vessel with one pint cold water. Place ou fire. When cooked pour in sieve to drain. Measure juice and place over fire. To each pint of juice add one pine of sugar. Put sugar in jar and place in oven to heat. Stir often to prevent burning. When hot, add sugar to boiling juice and cook rapidly until done. Test by dropping some in cold saucer. Put in glasses and covet. Butter—Mix strawberries and rhubarb from which jelly was made and rub through sieve. To each pint of fruit add ono pint sugar. Place over fire, cook until thick. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Put up the same as the jelly. I'IE POINTERS. How to Make Pie Crust.—One- half cupful of melted shortening (butter, beef drippings, or lard, or a mixture of any two, or all), One-quarter cupful of cold water, one heaping cupful of flour, a little salt. 'Method : Into a bowl put first the shortening. Next the water, and with a spoon stir into this the flour and salt. When mixed (which only takes a minute or two) set in refrigerator to cool. When hard enough roll. This is enough for both upper and lower crust for a large pie. Before putting into the oven brush top of the pie with milk. This will make it a nice brown color. When Making Sour Pies.—hen ll sour pies such as rhubarb and cranberry, it is well to add a cupful of raisins that have been previously soaked in water. They will take away that tartflavor be• sides absorbing the superfluous juices. To Bake Pio Crust.—When mak- ing a pie that regaires the crust to be baked before putting the filling in it, turn the pie pan upside down and place the dough over the pan and bake in this manner. This prevents the crust from shrinking so that when it is removed and placed inside the pan with the fill- ing tho pie will prove to be more satisfactory when cut. "Never Fail" Pie Crust.—Two tablespoonfuls of lard, four table- spoonfuls of water, eight tablo- spoonfuls of flour, a pinch of salt. Quantities are easily remembered by "two times four equal eight." FLOOR COVERING. Rugs that curl on edges can be made to lie flat by dampening curled edge and pressing with hot iron. When Beating Rugs.—When beat- ing rugs it is an excellent plan to do a handkerchief over the nose and mouth. This prevents the in- haling of the dust. Cleaning Carpet on Floor.- Take cornmeal, saturate thoroughly with gasoline, sprinkle quite heavily over carpet, and scrub with a broom. It will remove all dirt and dust, making the carpet look like now. Care, however, must be taken as to lighting matches and windows should be opened to air the rooms. Buying Carpet, for Stairs.—Al- ways buy an extra yard of stair carpet. It can be shifted up or down a little every time it is taken ftp, so that it wears evenly. Otherwise the part over the trends will be worn completely through, while the uprights aro as gond as now. The sitrpltis can be folded under at the top or bottom. Just try it ; you will be delighted to find your carpet wear twice as long and will not begin to look much worn till it is about gone, as it is all used alike. To Clean Matting. --Do not forget that matting must never bo washed with soppy water. A strong solu- tion of salt water cleans matting and makes it look like new. In lay- ing matting place one or two thick- nesses of old newspaper under- neath it, .for matting always lets dust and dirt through it like a sieve, and when it has to he taken up the pieces of dust eovered paper can he carefully lifted and burned. \Viriths of matting sewed together with a loose stitch, using carpet thread, make the floor covering look neater and wear better than when staples are used to fasten it down. ABOUT LINEN. When buying material for a white linen suit it will ne found more economical to get the two yard wide linen sheeting. as it costs less and silts to splendid advantage. Always buy linen handkerchiefs and towels and you (00 keep them a gond color more easily than if cotton ones are bought. For n laundry ling buy one and • half yards of wide bina••h-a linen toweling, double it, uvereast the t edges, und put a stout tape draw- string at the top. This bag can bo laundried often and to kept sweet and clean. Tho word "laundry" written on one side and outlined in white would add to the appearance. 1f a piece of heavy linen, cut large enough to cover the top of the dining table and extend two inches over at each edge, is neatly hemmed and plaeed over the Targe cloth a part uf each week the table can be kept neater with less laun- dry work, and the largo table cloth will not wear out at the edges so quickly. Half a yard of yard wide natural colored listen will snake a cool and durable cushion cover for summer use. Cut the linen in two and em- broider the top in a dull blue, us ing any pattern desired (large initi- als - uis ore pretty). and edge with a blue and linen colored cord. KITCHEN TIME SAVERS. Dissolve copperas in your drain pipes often to clean out slime and grease and to thoroughly disinfect them. Five cents' worth of Chinese blue dissolved in one quart of water makes excellent bluing and will last a family a year. Pour sauce around fish and pud- dings, not over them. A spoonful of vinegar in kettle of hot lard will prevent doughnuts from absorbing fat. Pineapple juice or grated pine- apple added to lemonade is delici- ous. One teaspoon sweet cream in frosting prevents crumbling when ctit. THE DEADLY CROQUET. Innocent Forms of Sport are 1'n - known in Russia. It seems strange that in a coun- try so cold as northern Russia the spirit of sport should not be more developed. The tropics, even, adopt football, baseball and other ath- letic games, but the land of the white bear seems to hibernate un- der its covering of ice and snow. An article in Chambers's Journal speaks of this fact and tells of the suspicion aroused, a number of years ago, by the introduction of an innocent form of diversion. Unfortunately, the Russian schoolboy has not the faintest know- ledge of the practise, even of the existence, of football, cricket, fours, golf, hockey, and so forth. Most of his time is loafed away. He skates a little in the winter if he lives near the ice, but he will not go far for it. In summer ho walks up and down the village street, plays cup and ball in the garden, fishes a little, and lazies away his time without exertion. Lawn -ten- nis is slightly attempted, but not really liked. Many years ago, when 1 was a schoolboy, I arrived from England to spend a summer in Russia. I brought with me a box of croquet, a game at the time unknown by the Ituseians. When the box was opened at the custom -house, the authorities re- treated in horror at its awe-inspir- ing contents. Bombs, mysterious weapons' It was an awful box. I drew forth one of the bombs and placed it on the floor, to the accompaniment of cries of conster- nation and terror. I took one of the mallets, and to the inexpres- sible alarm of all, I began a little exhibition of the game. As 1 could not use the hoops on the fluor, the custom -house officials grimly sus- pected then] to be boomerangs of novel description. The box was seized and examin- ed. I got the croquet set after a while, but it bore marks of severe testing. (:OO1) :1S ('ONI)l'("I'Oit. Sonic Rules That, Followed, Les- sen Dangers of lightning. Though it is impossible to avoid the danger of being struck by light- ning altogether, these few recom- mendations may, with advantage, be borne in mind:— Avoid fireplaces. Lightning often enters by the chimney, on account of the internal coating of soot. -- one of the bodies for which lightn- ing evinces a preference. For the same reasons, avoid metals, gild- ings and mirrors, on account of their quicksilver. The best place is the middle of the room, unless there should he a lamp or chande- lier hanging from the ceiling. The less contact with walls or floors the better; and the safest place—were it possible to arrange it—would be in a hammock, sus- pended by silken cords, in the mid- dle of a large room. in the absence of means of suspension, the next best place is en substances which are had conductors ---such as glass, pitch, or several mattresses.

How Each Reservist finds His Place and Regiment. Nobody who has visited Germany can fail to have been struck by tho large official signboards at the entry to each town or village, says Pear - son's y These\Weeconklta.in full information as to exactly which official in tho com- munity to apply to should the ma- gic word "mobilize" bo spoken. Wherever the German reservist may chance to be when the order tc• mobilize is given—assuming of course that ho is not out of the country—ho has only to ask the first inhabitant or walk to the end f the village and look at the di- rections on the signboard to find c.ut his own particular place in the military scheme. He will see that he must go to Herr Schmidt at 40 Schutzen street. Herr Schmidt will tell him exactly in which town he has to go in or- der to rejoin his own unit and, w hat is stall more important, will give him the money and the rail- way pass to take him them Ar- rived at his destination, ho will find his uniform, arms and accoutre- ments piled neatly in a heap with a label bearing his name and regi- ment number on the top of the heap. He has only to put it on and take his place anion the comrades with whom ho did his military service some years ago. This destination was arranged upon many years back, and the exact time schedule for marching and railway journeys was compiled long since. WHAT DREAMS MEAN.
