Morai indifference.
If Ignorance .nd passion are the
foes of popular morality, it must be
confessed that moral indifference is
the malady of the cultivated classes.
The modern separation of enlight
inment and virtue, of thought and
conscience, of the intellectual aris
tocracy from the honest and vulgar
crowd, is the greatest danger that can
threaten liberty. Henri Frederio
Arniel.

Homely Hint.
When making garments for a
bazar, roll the scraps that are left
from the material into a neat little
bundle and fasten this to the gar
ment with a few stitches. The pieces
will be appreciated by the one who
buys ic case patching or mending is
needed later.

Cultivating Friendship.
If a man does not make new ac

Almost Too Much to Believe.
A gunner of the royal marines telle
a story, says an English paper, of
how a eeaguii rescued an exhausted
linnet from the sea and deposited it
on the deck of a warship. We can
stand a good deal, but this story
should, we think, have been told by
its narrator exclusively to his fellow
marines.
Caution Carried to Extremes.
“Mrs. Westmore is one of the most

"Yes, she was telling me the other

might acquire the habit.” —Chicago

Folly of Haste
To be in haste is to be in anxiety
and distress of mind. It is to mistrust
Providence, and to doubt that the is
sue of all events is in wiser hands
than our own. It is to disturb the
course of nature, and put overmuch
confidence in the importance of our
own endeavors. —Henry Van Dyke,

First Steel Building.
The Tower buildmg. at 50 Broadway,
New York, when erected in 1888-1889,
was then said to mark anew depart
ure in building construction. The skeV
eton structure was of steel, and engl
ners hold that this was the first edi
fice in which the enUre weight of the
floors and walla was borne and trana
mitted to the foundation by a frame
work of metallic posts and beams.
In 1899 the Society of Architectural
Manufacturers of New York placed on
the building a tablet commemorating
this.
Gastronomic Feat.
My niece, aged four years, saw her
grandmother take some medicine con
tained in an unusually large capsule.
When the feat had been accomplished
the astonished child ran to me with
the exclamation: “O aunty, grandma
swallowed her medicine—bottle and
all.” —Exchange.
