Lord's Prayer, vs. License. Think of praying, "HALLOWED BE TI1Y NAME," then voting to legalize the liquor traffic by license, which causes God's name to be con- tinually blasphemed. "THY KINGDOM COME.' then voting that Satan's Kingdom (the aaloon) may continue if it will only pay the price which politiciane have fixed upon it. "THY WILL BE DONE," and then voting it shall not be done. "GIVE 178 THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD." and then voting to license that which takes the bread from thousands of starving moth- ers and helpless children. " LEAD ITS NOT INTO TEMPTATION.? and then voting that the allurements and temptations of the saloon may go on under some form of license. "DELIVER US FROM EVIL." and then voting that the State and Nation shall become a partner in drawing young men into evil, if the saloon will agree to pay the license. Be Thorough. "1 never do a thing thoroughly," Mary said to me the other day. She had juat been competing for a prize in composition. "1 only read my composition OLICH after I wrote it, tsnd I never practiced it in the chapel at all.° She was naturally far more gifted than Alice, who was the principal competitor. Alice wrote and re -wrote her article, and practiced it again and again. The day came. Alice read her compos- ition in a clear' distinct voice, without hesi- tation or lackof expression. It was con- densed and well written. Mary's could not be heard beyond the fifth row of seate, and was long and uninteresting. Alice won the prize. One remembered and the other for- got the truth so trite, but so aptly put by Carlyle: "Genius is an immense capacity for taking trouble." One by patient, persittent effort obtained what the other relied upon her natural tal- ent to win for her. Whatever you do, whether you. sweep a room, or make a cake, or write an essay, or trim a hat, or read a book, do it thorough- ly. Have a high standard for everything. Not alone because only thus you can, win honor and distinction, but because this is the only honest, right, Christian way to use the gifts God has bestowed upon you. To be honeet before Him we muat be thorough, -Christian at Work. Lunches. Instead of always putting the meat in eandwiches, It may be sliced thin, out in mouthfuls, daintily sprinkled with salt, and wrapped in white paper, to be eaten with bread and butter. It is difficult to pre- pare eggs for the lunch basket. 'They must, of course, be hard-boiled, andi should be cooked for about twenty minutes, as this renders them lees indigestible than the or- dinary precess of boiling them five or six minutes. They can be cut in four pieces lengthwise, seasoned with salt, and wrap- ped in paper, or cut in slices and put in be- tween bread and butter. Salt is a very im- portant ingredient in children's food, and should never be omitted front it. A tiny pinch should be put in the baby's, milk, and the child who has learned to like it,will resentits abeence.--Ladies' Home Journal, Disinfectants. All the powerful and really useful disin- fectants corrode metal and etain crockery more or leas. Copperas is the beet for household use, one pound dissolved in twelve quarts of boiling water, and used hot, be- ing more effective than cold. The valve should he open when it is poured down closets, so that it need not settle in the pan, which should be washed daily with a long. handled dish -mop kept for the purpose, and scalding, strong suds, when it will need no further disinfection. A large funnel should be set in the pipes of stationary wash bowls, which, by the way, are unfit for a human habitation and unknown in the best modern homes. When the fine Astor man- sion was built in Philadelphia the owner positively forbade a single stationary bowl in the droning rooms, an example which has since been followed in other high class houses. -Philadelphia Star. Horses Fond of' Women. , Not long ago a muscular, 200 -pound man, with hie wife beside him,was driving A fast, high-spirited horse, harnessed to a light wagon. The horse pulled very hard, and at last, tired out, the driver handed over the reins to his oonipanion, saying: "Hold on to this beast for a minute, if you possibly can, so that I may rest my arms." Accord- ingly, the woman took the reins, and no sooner had she done so than the horse atop - ped pulling, slackened hie pace and became calm and obedient. But when the man re- sumed control the animal immediately be- gan to pulland fight against the bit as hard AP ever. A second time the woman took the horse on hand ; as before, he submitted at once, and under her guidance he trotted gently along till their destination was reached. , Another case that fell under my observa- tion is the following: A gentleman who is a good shot and aniexpert tennis player, but who has no " facelpy for horses, drove out with his daughterea delicate girl of four- teen.'Their atee , a very strong, mettle- some animal, soon began to plunge and pull. Unable to control him otherwise,. the driver, in a moment of exasperation, struck the horse with the whip, the result being that he nearly ran away. At this the child be- gan to cry, for she loved the animal and could not bear to see him abused. "Here, take him, then," said her father, handing her the reins. At !once the horse detected the new driver, his anger and fear began to IraSic-ott's Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil and Hypophosphitee is both a food and a remedy.

We have just read a most interesting ac- count of an incident in Florence Nightin- gale's girlhood. Some boys had thrown atones at a valuable shepherd dog belonging to an old Sootoh shepherd and broken its leg, and it was de- cided that it would be a mercy to kill the poor animal, when Florence Nightingale came upon the scene, and here we begin the story: The little girl went fearlessly up to where he lay, saying in a soft, caressing tone : " Poor Cap !poor Cap !" It was enough ; he looked up with his speaking brown eyes, now bloodshot and full of pain into her face, and did not resent It when, kneeling down beside him, she stroked with her little ungloved hand the large intelligent head. • ( To the vicar he was rather less *enable but by dint of coaxing at last allowed hill to touch and examine the wounded leg, Flo- rence persuasively telling him` it was all right. Indeed she was on the floor beside him, with his head on her lap keeping a con- tinuous murmur, much as a mother does over a sick child. "Well," said the vicar, rising from his examination, "as far A8 1 can tell there are no broken bones. The leg is badly bruised. It ought to be fomented to take the inflam- mation and swelling down." "How do you foment ?" asked Florence. "With hot cloths dipped in boiling wa- ter," replied the vicar. " Then that's quite eeey. I'll stay here and do it. Now, Jimmy, get sticks and make the kettle boil." ' There was no hesitation in the child's manner; she was told what ought to be done and she set about doing it as a simple matter of course. "But they will be expecting you at home," said the vicar. "Not if you tell them I'm here," answer- ed -Florence; "and my sister and one of the maids can come and fetch me home in time for tea, and-" she hesitated,-" they had better bring some old flannel and clothe; there does not seem to be much here, but you will wait and show me how to foment, won't you ?" " Well, yea," said the vicar, carried away by the energy of the little girl. Soon -the fire was lit and the water boil- ing. An old smock frock of the shepherd's had been discovered in the corner, which Florence deliberately tore in pieces, and the vicar said : " What will Roger say?' And so Florence Nightingale made her firet compress, and spent the whole of that bright day in nursing her first patient -the shepberd's dog. In the evening, when Roger came, not ex- pecting to find visitors in t''he humble cot- tage, and dangling a bit of cord in his hand, Florence went up to him. , "You can throw that away, Roger," ,she said. "Your dog won't die • look at him." Cap rose and walked toware his master, whining with pleasure. , " Deary me I deary Me. What have you i k done with him? h could not move this morning when 1 let him." Then Florence t d Roger and explained the mode of treatment. "You have only to go on to -night, and to -morrow he will be alntost well, the vicar says." Smiling brightly she continued : "Mrs. Norton has promised to see to Cap to- morrow when you are out, so now you need not kill him; he will beetble to do hie work again." "1 thank you kindly, missy, I do, in- deed," said the old man huskily. "It went hard•witla me to- do away with him, but what can a poor man do ?" and putting out his hand he stroked the dog. "I'll see to him, now as I know what's to be done," and he stood his crookein the corner and hung his oap on the peg. Then Florence took her leave, stroking and petting the dog to the last, and those who, standing in the cottage door, watched her disappear, little thought they were gaz- ing upon one whose mission would be to tend the sick and wounded on many a battle field, and how, in years to come, men dying far away from home would raise themselves upon their pillows to "kiss her shsdow as it pa6sed." 11511i Perkins Tells -two Stories.

When he came she in- quired his name. . 6 .fi 'My namee Wong Hang How,' lisped the, Chinaman. 64 60h, I can't retnember all that lingo,' said my wife. 'I will call you John.' ";The next morning when the Celestial came he risked my wife what her name was. " 't My name," said my wife, very slowly, 'is gra. Melville D. Landon." " Me no can membel all lat namee,' said Joh0,, Me call you Tommy."' Mt,. Perkins said he was simply rushing thro gh from the coast in a great hurry. "1 an in about as big a hurry," he said "as old Deacon Marvin Brewster was over in Connbcticat." " gem much of a hurry was he in?" "Well, old Deacon Brewster was always in a 4rry. One day, when he made up his min to get marrihd, he rode over to Widow Mansep's farm in a yellow buggy, hustled into the house right in the middle of dinner, and gasped : " ' Widder Manson, I'm a man of busi- ness. tj am worth $10,800 and want you for a wife I give you just three minutes tc answer.'

And yet that is the common experience in Holland. The fore- man helps his employer put on a log Mon- day morning, and along about Wednesday or Thursday they look in to see if the mill has started. Then they go out and shut the door, and call again next Monday. Fortu- nately the machinery is made so that, if the mill does start up in the night and do a lit- tle work, or even saw the log up, no damage will be done if the workmen are absent. But the method is a trifle too leisurely for any plaoe except Holland." Luck. People who have made their way upward and onward in an Incomprehensible sort of fashion are very apt to believe in luck. The late A. T. Stewart'. belief that if the old apple -woman on the corner did not fol- low him uptown his luck would desert him, is well known. There is a rich man in New Jersey who fender that yellow is his lucky color. He paints everything about his premises yellow In oprisequenoe, often in the most amazing fashion. There is a woman who deals in real estate in New York whose fortune is large. She wears about her neck a button tied to a shoe string. It is ususlly concealed, but when she begins to bargain she takes the button in her fingers. Without it she believes abe Would do some foolish thing. Years ago a great flnanoial light dropped the button as he passed her, and she sonsiders it a talis- man. Another rich woman in New York re- turns home if she meets a person with one eye • her day, she says, will be unfortunate if she transacts business after meeting such a person. It is mid that the old mother of the Roths- child. always resided in the tumbledown old house where they were born. She be- lieved that if she left it their luck would leave them. Every morning servants car- ried her in a eeda,n chair to the palatial homes of her sons; but they carried her back at night. She slept in the old house as long as she lived. The wife of one of those wealthy men who astonish the world by failing, always .de- olared that it was "because he lifted an um- brella over her head in hie office." In feet, there are hundreds of people who, quite sane and sensible in other ways, are fixed in their belief as to the most absurd things concerning good and bad luck. A Difference in Methods. Sir Edwin Arnold, writing of ohildren in Japan, explains that one reason for the good behavior of the small people there is found in the fact that there are ao few restrictions placed upon them. The simple style of fur- niture in their homes, and the absence of articles which they muat avoid, which their little bands could injure, and which would make prohibitions necessary, render their lives very easy. American juvenile life is hedged about with a bristling abatis of don'ts. " Don't do this ; don't touch that," assails the infant ear as soon ae it -begins to interpret and differentiate sounds. The child, reasoning from Note, early learns that an infraction of morals is less quickly pun- ished than an infraction of china. A breach of politenese is passed over by the busy mother who will not tolerate an initiry,how- ever slight, to her tufted chairs or her cherished brio-a-brao. Few dearer memories survive in some of us who are grown up than the memory of patience exercised toward us by our parents, not when we were wayward, cross or wil- fully disobedient in childhood, but when we were mischievous or unfortunate. The ac- cident, in which our heedlessness alone in- volved us, passed over with a gentle, regret- ful reproof, the playfulness leading into error met with the large toleration of ten- derest love; how these linger in our heart of hearts! Mothers would be sorrier than they are for hasty words could they fore- cast the years and discern how deeply child- ish hearts may be wounded, and how long children may remember injustice and mis- understanding. A wise woman said the other day, "No, I do not keep all my beautiful nick-net:Ike and draperies out all ( the time. I have three big healthy boys golowing up, and my house is small, and I will not be perpetu- ally warning them againit injury to the or- namental part of the furniture. I do not wish them to associate home life with ever- lasting restraint and restriction. They must not feel that they are alwaye treading on thin 1c," Another woman, equally wise, said,speak- ing on the same topic: "My house is small and it is crammed with curious and dainty decorative accessoriea to its adornment. From the beginning my baby boys have fro- licked and romped at their will in my draw- ing -room and library, but I have taught them to run and jump with cate, and never to handle or ro much as touch, a tea -cup or a vase. I do not think they will ever know a mannish dislike to articles of vertu.' The difference is in method° and in re- sults. But which of us, dearly loving chil- dren, does not waft a greeting to the brown - eyed little ones of whom Sir Edwin tells us in that children's paradise, Japan.-Harp- er's Bfinar. How to Use Dates. The date is an economical, nutritious and wholesome fruit, especially desirable on the nursery -bill of fare. Constipation is a com- mon form of childish trouble that can al- ways be more safely overcome with fruit and food than with medicines. The Egypt- ian dates cured with mobiles are the beat as well as the cheapest, selling for from six to ten cents a pound in New York. Separ- ate the dates and stone them, and chop them lightly, and when you are making white bread, flour a cupful of the chopped dates and knead them into a loaf of the bread just before putting it into the pans to rise for the last time. Stirred into graham gems just before they go into the oven they make an excellent food for child- ren or grown people. For date cake, bake a rich cup -cake in layers about three-quarters of an inch thick well done; mix half a cup-ful of whipped cream with a cupful of chopped dates and spread between the layers. Pile three lay- ers high, and ice top and aides. If the cake is not to be eaten the same day, it is better to omit the whipped cream. For sandwiches, cut thin slices of graham or white bread, and spread first with butter and then with chopped dates. The butter should be free from salt. Try these with chocolate at some evening entertainment. Dates added to apple sauce give it a very fine flavor, and render the use of sugar un- necessary. Concerning Oysters. On beginning its career, the oyster is so small that 2,000,000 oystera would only oc- cupy a square ineb. in six months, each individual oyster is large enough to cover a nickel, and in twelve months a quarter. The oyster is its own architect,and the shell grows as the fish inside grows, being never too small. It also bears its age upon its back, for on its shell are successive layers overlappiog each other, technically termed "shots," and each one bears a year's growth.' By counting them, the age of the oyster can be determined. Up to the time of its maturity -that is, when four years of age -the shots are regular and successive; but after that time they become irregular, LARD sInCe COTTOLE take its place. with Which the the advent of the ST co.

Fossil oysters have been see of which each shell was nine inches thic e, whence they would be judged to be more than 900 years old. One to two million paters are produced from a single parent, and their scarcity is accounted for by the fact that man is not the only oyeter-eatinganimal. The star- fish loyee the oyster, snd preys upon it un- ceasingly. A varietylof whelk is also fond of young oysters, to get at which it bores right through the she 1 and sucks the fish right up through the lo1e thus made. Queen Vic oria's Dogs. Dogs were first adm tted to the court of England in the reign f Henry VIII. Under the present reign thre doge have been ele- vated to the highest c nine dignities on ac- count of their ariatcor tio families and their own peculiar merite The names of the aristocratic trio are M roo, Roy and Spot. Marco is the Queen's f vorite, and be used to be very jealous of ohn Brown. His an- cestry can be traced ck to the orusadere. He is what they cell i England a Pomeran- ian, and at one of the comet dog shows won the first prize, the mug of honor. The other favorite Roy, is a collie, and Spot is a fox terrier with a reco d of 22 rats in a quar- ter of an hour. These canine lords ave their residences with their special ames. Her Majesty's dog palace is divided into three parts, the Queen's veranda, colli court, and umbrella court, The veranda a the principal one. It is a covered gallery a ound the kennel, and the Queen likes to ws k there. &soh kennel has a ining-room and a bed- room, The floor of t e dining -room is sep- arated from the vera da by an iron grating. It is paved with re and blue brieks, and the furniture consists of a troughe, always full of fresh water.

All the children (1)f the Imperial family have been baptized 'n water from the Jere dan, according to a ustom long established in the Royal hous of Prussia. The Em- press has of late re eived innumerable re- quests to stand as s onsors to the children of all classes of people 'n all parts of Germany so many, in fact, th t she has found it im- possible to accede to even a tithe of the ap- plications. She has therefore made it a rule to act as godmothe only when one or the - other of the parents is personally known to her. The Empress alw ye prepares some kind of celebration for the birthdayeof her child- dren. One of these anniversaries came along at the time of the Bismarck episode. The Kaiser,who was playing with the child- ren at the little fatiiIy feast, was astonish- ed to hear from the eldest of hie offspring this comment on th event which had just astonished the worl : "Father," piped out the Crown Prince they say that you will now tell the people hat to do all by your- self. You will like hat better, won't you, father ?" The con illation was not pro- longed. The Crowe Prince is evidently a "chip of the old b1o0k." His spiritual ad- viser was one day impressing upon him the doctrine that "all mon are sinners." This sentiment struck the lad as being somewhat antagonistic to the views possibly imbibed in the home circle, fir he pondered a mo- ment and then gaye expression to the doubt that still lingered in his mind, and inquired if the doctriee applied to the great ones of this earth, as well as to the common folk. "Yes," replied his tutor, "1 have told you that all men are sinners." " Well," said the boy, "father may be, but I know that mother isn't" . hroi --. The Furnace.
