BY ANNIE E. MYEBB,
The home governs the world.
All social and moral laws of our
common civilization revolve around
the home. It is the school of so
cial prtigress ; Public opinion is
ihe collective opinions of our
home.
Clean-sighted reformers aim to
direct the power that rules the
home. In a certain sense we are
all reformers, we all try to make
the world better; some are trying
in one way, some in anellmr ; out
we should all beg in at home. f 1
Let the home be a cheerful, sun
shiny place. There let us find
Deatn-ss and comfort,
let us have always good nature and
means for improvemenL
Home is the place for all the
b«et things ; therefore don’t keep
all your cheerfulness fqr socitty f
nor shut out all the sunshine exs
cept when you have visitors. Cheer
fuk.ess and suashiue do not cost
anything, but withhold them and
you are a heavy loser.
It is not alone the housekeeper’s
duty to keep ike home rooms mat
and tidy; each member of the fam
ily should assist in it. There are
a thousand wavs of keeping clean
that saves a vast amount of mak
ing clean. Anyone of refined feel
ing regards all labor to secure neat
ness a labor of love and duty.
Did you ever bear that little
fable ot the chairs ? For fear you
haven’t I‘ll tell it to you.
“Well,** said a straight-backed,
straight legged chair to a oosy
rocking chair by whose side it
chanced to be p.aeoJ, “before l
would be such a drudge as you
I would be a siool; or, if possible,
something more insignificant.
People arc not content with mak
ing you nurse everyone, be they
big or little, lint you must be con
tinually rockiug thorn to and fro.
*,To be sure,’ answered the little
rocLing chair. “I am always busy
and on the go for the gratification
of others; but hereby have I won
many liieods, and appear to be a
great favorite with ail* Thiß pay*
me for all my trouble.’

A LETTER FROM ABE LIN
COLN.
An autograph letter that I would
like to own was shown me a few
dajs ago “A. Lincoln” was bold,
ly signed at the enil of it, and this
wisdom was there, paragraphed in
this wise:
“Do not worry.
“Eat three square meals a day.
“Say your prayers.
“Think of your wire.
“Be enormous to your creditors.
“Keep your digestion good.
“Steer clear of biliousness.
“Eexercise.
‘,Go slow and go easy.
“Maybe ihere are other ihiDgs
that your especial case requires to
make you happy, hut, my friend,
these, I reckon, will give you a
good lift.’
FOURTEEN MISTAKES OF
LIFE.
Somebody has condensed the
mistakes of life, and arrived at
the couclusiou that there are four
teen of i hem. Most people would
say, if t hey are told the trnth that
there was no limit to the mistakes
of life; that they weie like (he
drops in the ocean or the sands of
the shore in number, but it is well
to be accurate. Here, then are
fourteen great mistakes:
It is a great mistake to set np
oar owu standard ot right and
wrong, and judge people accord
ingl^
To measure the enjoyment of
others by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion
in this world.
To look for judgement and ex
perience in youth.
To endeavor to mould a> dispo
sitions alike.
To yield to immaterial trifl#s.
To look for perfection in our
own actions.
To worry ourselves and others
with what cannot be remedied.
Not to alleviate all tboJ needs al
leviatton as far as far as lies in our
power.
To consider everything possible
that we cannot perform.
To lielieye only what our infin
ite minds can grasp.
To expect to be ab'e to uuder
taud vvw j thing.

THE RETO T COR7EOUS*
A blatant, braying sample of
the loud-voiced, self-conscious 8
look-at-ine vairoty of men, took
his teat in a Philadelphia street
car, and called to the conductor :
“Does this car go all the way to
Eigtht”
“Yes sir’ responded the condue,
tor politely.
“Does it go up as far Oxford
street ? I want to get ot there.”
“Yes sir,” was the replv.
“ Well, I want you to tell me
when you get there. You bad
better stick a wafer on your nost
or put a stiaw in your month, or
tie a kuot in one of your lips, co
that you won’t forget it.
“I. would not be convenient
for ’>ne in my position to do so,”
said the conductor,but “if you will
kindly pin your ears ground your
neck, I think I will remember to
tell you.”

JUGS.
The origin of jugs dates back lo
snliqity. Yet we hiuve all iliscov
ered that the jug, whose appear
ance is most an Liquate d, does not
always belong to that enigmatic
period. The history of“ The Little
Brown Jug” is quite as ancient as
must people aare to go back to in
vestigato. Lately there has been
a great breeze over a jug called
“The Peach blow Vase.,” In artis
tic circles, its sale for eighteen
thousand dollars will mark an era.
Yet to many people in this world
there are rnauy things better “by
a jugful.” The jng is a most sin -
utens’l. A pail, goblet,
or jar may be rinsed, and you can
satisfy your elf by optical proof
tbui the thing is clean ; bat the
jug Uue a little hole in the top and
ihe interior is all darkness. No
eye penetrates it, no eye can move
ovei its serlace You can clean it
only by putting wa'el into it, nhuk
ing it np aud pouring it ou . If
the wafer comes out clean, you
judge you have succeeded purify
iDg the jug heari ; no mortal eye
can look into its recesses and you
can only judge of its puri'y by
what comes o t of it.
