corner.. They ere
a with ntoMoxe.1
«‘I Lore My Teacher."
A sentence brief; 1 told them each.
To bring me on the morrow—
A little clus of girls and boys,
With hearts all free from sorrow.
J bade them write each word with care,
That I might see how neatly
The willing bauds would do the work—
They gave the promise sweetly.
The next day came with all its cares,
It fonnd them In their plaoes;
1 saw the eager light flit o'er
Their merry, earnest faces.
1 took the papers that they brought
And smiling read them over,
And thus they'd briefly written out:
“The dew drops kiss the clover."
"The birdies warble in the grove."
"The day is bright and stuiny,"
"Bob II.rwood to e Jolly boy,"
••Our Mby li so funny— ,r
1 retd aloud thcio quaint, bright thoughts
And paused to pralso them duly,
Tor I was proud to know not one,
Bad been at all on roly.
And then, at last I took horn one,
nip UU WHICH A RW
The words. "I lore my teacher,"
The sweet, shy eyes looked into mine
With all faith's perfect beaaty—
Boglad. so happyTn the thought!
That she had done her daty.
Ky eyes grew misty as I stood
Before them there, and thought
She little knew the lesson true
That her simple words had taught;
'A keen rebuke they were to me
1 thought of days of ceaseless work,
When 1 wss worn and weary ;
17 hen aching feet had made the way
Seems almost rough and dreary,
And 1 had tried to hard teach
The truth aa they should he* it—
And now these children shamed my weak
And sometimes shrinking spirit.
O^we grown children In life's school
Through every changing feature,
To we alt at the Master’s feet
And ra'
Ka^wel^
And witi the fervent plow of lovo'
A. bravely do our duty.
A Special 'Word to the Ladies.
We want to uyjnat one word In behalf of
the proprietor, of Tan CowniTunoit who
■Wo ua thl. pago. They are Tory anxious to
get 100,0C0 snbaurlbera to their aplendtd paper
IM, winter. They have now 70,000, which
leave, only 30,000 to got. I was telling them
the other day that tho Woman's Kingdom was
dl powerful and that we coaid do whttever
weputoor heads to, and that wo wonld help
them out this month. Let ns ree now how
■any of onr Mends will stand np to what we
promised. Every one of yon can get at lout
•bo anhseriber for each week In Soptember.
Ton contend them In at $1.00 each. Let at
pnll altogether nowand show our friend, wbat
wo can do for them doting September. To
every lady who Mad. Jthre. subaeribera The
Constitution will send a picture of President
Cleveland ar Is wife, ready for hanging in
your room—m3.
Let ns see, now, what tho ladle, will do.
We will print the name* of every lady who
responds In onr department, and will give a
place of honor to all who send llv. subscribers
hi a clnb. Wo know that 50,000 sisters read
this department eveiy week. Won’t at least
half of these respond with at lout one new
snbtorlber daring tho month of September f
Wo believe they will.
A child ono day camo to lta loving mother
and ashed to have a string put on a littlo bag
■be held in her hand; tho child thought the
string wonld be fastened on the side of her
hog, bnt tho mother thinking to msko it more
convenient for oonatant use concluded to ran
the string in the hem islth a bodkin, tho child
turned off and left tho bag In her mother’s
hand, In a moment with a child’s Impatlonco
.he rati rned, she did not see the string or tho
feodhln, both had disappeared In tho horn, bat
she looked Into tho mother's eyes and arid
thought I asked yon to tx my bag, why don't
yon do III” tho mother replied, ’’yes, my
child, I will do It;’’ not waiting for the tuk to
ho completed the Utils one again returned and
boating Into tears .ha said: "I thought you
wan a good mama and wonld do what I atkod
y.n, and yon have not;’’ Jnst then tho bodkin
made lta appearanoo through the ham with tho
string tnd tho littlo oho caught light of It, her
face brightened np and th. tears were wiped
away, and she looked np earnestly and said*
“that’s Jolt the way Jeans docs;'wo uk Him for
something bnt wo don’t tee Him do it, bat He
dots.” A child’s way of expressing It, bat oh,
how true, and what a lesson to donbtlng
hearts. How often have onr request and do-
aim seem to have been unnoticed; wo come
and In onr impatience wo uk and expect an
immediate answer, and If It lalls to come Jut
Mend when we want It, wo fret and grow
donbtlng became wo cannot see tho workings
of Providence, and yet Ho that "doeth all
things well’’ is granting onr detiro In HU own
way and time. Like tho child we doobt tho
very love of tho parent who never forgets at,
whoso watchful care U over o’er os, and yet
became wo cannot see an Immediate accom.
plishment of onr request and In tho way wo
wish it done; onr heart, grow falthlou and an-
believing, wo do not “trait in Him at all
times,' 1 when we have told oar sorrow, and
made known our request we should go away
and leave tham with Him; tbs amwerUnot
always what wo atked or .xpoetod, still we
never seek in vain. The gift U always better
than tho ono wo sought.’’ Spurgeon says:
‘There U no more blessed way of living, than
a life of dependence opod a covenant-keeping
Hod. Wo have no care, for Ho careth for m;
wo have no troubles, became we cut onr
hardens upon the Lord.”

plus of doily use, bnt It will All the position of
company cushion on the spare-room dressing-table
very creditably, and win much admiration from
guests, as it is certainly a very stylish and effect*
Ive article.
For the center, cut two circular pieces of paste*
board, using a tumbler as a guide, or a preserve
saucer, if a very largo flower Is desired. Cover
one of these circles with brown velvet that is first
lined with cotton wadding, and then covered with
tnlckly*set French knots done with brown eaj
hxoldery silk. Before covering tho circle quite a
thick piece of cotton*wool should be laid under
the velvet. The other piece of pasteboard should
be covered with dark green velvet or felt, and the
two'piecesshould be neatly overhanded together
at the edges.
For the petals of the flower ent a pattern, as
nearly like the natural ones as possible, but take
off the lower point, leaving a broad, straight side
to sew to the center.
Cut the petals of very thin card-board and oorer
with yellow satin. Make enough in the first row
to touch etch other at the base when sewed around
the brown center. Make the second row or petals
shorter, and do not cut off the point on the bottom.
Catch this point by a few stitches to the oenter,
over the join of the under row of petals.
Make a stem of bonnet wire covered first with
cotton wool and then with dark olive-green felt or
velvet, and stw one end to tho back of the flower
at the center.
Make a calyx by cutting four leaf-shaped pieces
of card board, using natural ones If possible for
models, cover each piece with velvet or felt, and
oveihsud etch two together. Bend the pair Into
a cup like form, and sew to the stem a short dis
tance below the flower. This cushion may be hung
to the side of a dressing glass or may he laid on
the bureau, turned so os to partly show the stem
and calyx.
A Waste Haskett
A fine pattern for this Is a tin pail that will
hold six quarts, and in shape is larger at tho top
than at the bottom. From dark gray maorame
cord or what Is sold for rag carpet w«iplug, crocnct
a flat piece of solid single crochet os large ai the
bottom of tho poll, then begin with a row of shell*
work, making It just enough smaller than the lari
row to turn down over the sides. Keep tho pall
bottom upward and try on this crochet cover each
time round, adding or leaving out a stitch as is
needed. Any one that has ever sewed a straw
bonnet to fit a wooden or plaster block, will
readily erochet a facsimile of any pail or shape
desired, The pattern may be more or less elabor
ate, according to ihowielder's skill with her one
needle.
When as large as the model, crochet two loops
on the upper edge to look like the "lifts" on the
side of a mall^wlllow basket.
Now saturate this crochet work with the strong
est, stickiest starch that can be made, and streten
the thoroughly wet crochet case upon the model,
and let It dry; beforo thoroughly dry, ran a dull-
biased knife under occsMonslly, taking care not
todl tnrb the shape; but If left too muon to itself
it will stick to the pail and never come off without
beiig wetted, which would lessen its stiffness,

Woman's Best Friend.
A hairpin In a woman's best friend. It fits a
multiplic ity of uses, and she Is never without one.
If her hair Is short yon can depend upon it that la
a recess of her purse or a rocket of her reticule you
will find tho hairpin. If she buttons her shoes she
nses her hairpin, and who ever saw a woman but
ton her gloves with anything else? If her head
itches, does she scratch it with her linger? Non
sense. She whips out a hairpin and relieves her
self. Suppose a nickel has dropped between the
bars of the wooden footgrbto In the street car?
Poes she soil her fingers os a man wonld, and then
not get it? Certainly not. Out oomes the hairpin,
snd the coin Is liftod out without any trouble.
If her shawl pin is lost, whsxe so good a subtil-
tuie tithe hairpin? If she tots a nnt,d
take a nutplck? Most assuredly not. The
sgsin. It is with the hairpin that she rips open
the m cut leaves of a book or msgazlne: It fsahalr-
pin with which she marks her progress In her fa
vorite book; If a trunk key is misting a hairpin
opens the refractory lock as neatly as a burglar's
skeleton key wonld; with It she cleans her Anger
nails and. if it la aclean one, even picks hertoeih.
And the feats of hair-Mcuring that she will make
a simple bow leggsd halrplu accomplish nearly
>arpa»cstho belief of man. Altogether, It do*
rrmfl «o bo c)o*»cd among the great inventions of
tho wot Id, and the grave of '.he original man who
created the lint ono could have no prouder epi*
tspb than this; "This Is the kind of hairpin he
was."-Chicago News.
The Stylo In Hair,
Tho latest thing in tho manner of dressing
women's hair is striking. It seems to have sprung
into Instant popularity, for though it appeared
here after Lent it has already been adopted by
almost everybody. The hair Is woven Into Inna*
merabie little braids, which aro colled abont tho
bead like so many twisted and writhing wator
snakes, all ly lng close to the head. If It bo a well-

Origin of Cntry Quilts.
"Craiy" patchwork originated In the followlnt
manner: A certain titled lady whlls learning
tmbrod.ry In tn English reminarj lost her mind,
and It became Decenary to conllna har In n pri
vate madh&ntc. But .he still retained har pas
sion tor ntedle-worh and ipont met cl her tloit
In nnitiDi piece, of material furnished her from
the madhouse scrap bog. Although tushie to per
form the difficult stitches ot embroidery work, It
was noticed that In Joining lb# odd, sod ends of
material given her she Invariably used contrasting
or issimltatloa colors of thread or silk, and that
marly every stitch was different from the other*.
Specimens cf her work found their way outside ol
the asylum, and since then millions of womon,
apparently sane, have found delight In imitating
toe handiwork of the craay countess.

Withlaoooohe, Macon and Hernando counties,
Fla.—I have received so many letters of inqariry
about Florida, I take the liberty of answering
their questions through the Kingdom. The Fior
Ida Southern in connection with the Booth Flor
ida railroad, via Pemberton ferry, Is now forming
a great thoroughfare to Tampa. Key West and
Cuba, and is opening up a soctlou of Florida that
is unsurpassed for health, excellence of Its soil
and the tropical character of its cHuote. Moron
Is situated on the Booth Florida road, ten miles
from Pemberton ferry and sixty five by rail from
Tsmpo. Macon Is about sweuty-flve miles from
the sea coast. 1 have received many letters ask
ing my assistance in obtaining positions as teach
ers, clerks, etc. I will simply answer them by say
ing there is now an overplus of such application.
Catnenters can do very well now in Tampa; great
deal ol building going on. All through the nard
times during the last decade there has been a
fiudv and continuous flow of position seekers Into
Florida, visiting every new town hunting ea«y
pisecr. and they are coming Into routh. Florida
wi h the railroads. Florida Is a imd of genuine
promise, bnt tot a land of flowers. I find lower
(lower*. wild or cultivated, here in Florida, than
In any otbtrsUtr, and 1 have visited a good many;
South Florida Is the land orpines, ana Is (he por

of peisor s w 1th only moderate means, for the rea

given they will achieve Independence from a rew

very near rqnal to the male members. Nearly
all tbe work Is light snd very luteresting to all;
planting the seeds, setting out kttlo orange trees,
strawberry plants, pruning tbe vines of their littlo
runners, the trees or their needless shoots, making
beautiful flower yards to enhance the value of

can assist in gathering the fruits acd vegetables
and preparing them for market. The weathor is
so delightful it Is a treat to be out and enjoy tho
fresh breezes. There are but few negroes fn this
section. The ladles do their own domestic work.
There are two good colored families living near

FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS.
Fan for tho Children—Tho Constitution 1
Training School for Boys and GUIs,
Dear Children: I bad intended to write
yon a letter thia week and tell joa of what
have been doing and what I have teen lately,
bnt there come such a charming letter to me
from a gentleman in California that I am go
ing to let bis letter take the place of mine,
want you to read it attentively, and hope yon
will write some nico letters and answer hlg
questions. How pleasant it is to have a letter
from one so far away, and to feel that ho
interested in onr little corner of the psper.
Now I want to see who will writo the host
answer to “G B. II.’s” letter; now remember
am very proud of you all, so do your best.
I hope yon will enjoy the letter si much as
have. Yours, “Aukt Susie."
Correspondence.
Dear Annt Susie, maybe you don't want a big
gTty -baired oouiin from far off California to write
for tie Uttle cousins' column. If so, put this
where "Miss Moutie" con find It, and X guess she
will laugh to see on old bachelor making beUeve
that he Is a littlo boy again. But I won't care. I
wont to know lots of things 1 earns from eastern
Alabema. We lived In the plney woods. There Is
a big spring on oar place there, with lots of little
fishes in it. When I was a Uttle boy my father told
me to look at the fishes danco, and when I leaned
over he gave me a push and Into the spring I went,
heels over head; but mother scolded him good for
It, and 1 didn't feel a bit norry for him. What I
want to know Is this: Do my Uttle eoutini down
south still play "anti over bero-we-eome," "last
tag," "grandma thread the needle," "prisoner
hose" and "one a hundred-all hid" Uke we used to?
Do they hunt muscadines and cbfnqueplns and
barberry roots for tooth brashes? Do the boys
make traps and catch partridges in the UU? I
found a partridge nest once with nineteen eggs In
It. Wacn’4 that lucky? Do my little boy cousins
strmp their toes and get stone-brusles and loose
their slate pencils on tbe way to school and get
awful hungry before dinner time? Oh myf I wish
1 had a piece of blackberry pie right now. Do my
littlo girl cousins gather red aatamn leaves and
pin them In long strings and maka sashes to wear
over their shoulders? Now yon see what a lot of
thing* I want to know. Maybosome of the little
cousins will write nice, short letters to you abont
their excursions and tell you some of theso thing*
Is this letter too long? If It is Is, you can do with it
like our eoloied man, Uncle Jim, once did with his
•xhsndle. The handle was too long and so ho cat
It in two in the midale and threw botn ends away.
Oh! Uncle Jim was smoking a elay pipe one day,
and ha laid it down on a log; 1 picked It up and
smoked it when he was not looking; I thought it
was teal funny. When 1 went to tho house my
mother asked me to nod aloud to her; 1 began t >
read, and then my face turned real white; she
tbcughtlwasgolng to be slok, bat Itsllyoal
thought I was pretty sick already. I never smoked
Uncle Jim’s pipe again. a. B, It.
