Small Miseries Which No Art Can Prevent or Subdue. A great deal is said and written now- adays about the art of homemaking, while very little thought is expended upon the fact that in the home certain small miseries arise and flourish which no art can better or subdue. -In most homes there are great capa- bilities for happiness, end so in direct proportion of unhappiness. Not every man or woman, however well-inten- tioned, true, and conscientious, can make the home what it ought to be. And one of the most fruitful causes of unhappiness, next to bad temper, is to be found in poor housekeeping. Many a woman, in every respect ad- mirable and intelligent beyond the av- erage, cannot entirely grasp the mys- teries of housekeeping. And that it $s not a matter of intelligence is shown by the fact that some of the best and -|most skillful housewives have been those who turned their attention to little else than the ordering of their dinners and the scrupulous neatness of their homes. And who shall say that these did not make a success of house- keeping? So many, many things enter into the housekeeping for the good or ill of the household. The wife or house- keeping sister may be orderly, the hus- band or brothers the reverse; or the wife totally regardless of system, while the husband counts a misplaced article or a late breakfast an unpardonable sin for which no future punctuality or neat- ness may condone; and these things occurring day after day, year in and year out, a consequent struggle en- sues which renders life a martyrdom. The more trivial the occasion, the more bitter the sense of defeat. “Oh,” said a woman, whose house- keeping was to her as the grinding of the pilgrim’s pebbles in his shoes, “TI know I am a miserable failure as a housekeeper! I can do half a dozen things well, but I canno} keep a house.” Now., there is no more reason in the world why that woman should wear herself into nervous prostration trying to do a thing that in all her life she will never compass than there is that any man should become a lawyer when his tastes and aptitude are for medi- cine or mechanism. “My wife and I are much fonder of each other since we sit down every day with a dozen people than when we dined alone,” said a jolly husband, who went through life very respectably and hap- pily, though he never had a home. It is sad, but nevertheless true, that the dispositions of some couples change en- tirely for the better as soon as they are freed from the shackles of house- keeping. Faultfinding ceases, anxious lines smooth away, and both husband and wife draw a long breath of relief. T have known a most devoted hus- band and wife who, after the various Slade Chapman, Populist.

Richmond—Claude Republican, and Y C Morton, Dockery, domestic complications caused by the civil war, looked the matter of house- keeping squarely in the face. The wife, no longer young, felt that she could not, without great personal exertion and un- told worry, take up housekeeping on a totally different basis from that with which she had been familiar, and her husband was wise and _ considerate enough to accept her view of the situ- ation, And to the end of their lives Robeson—Duncan McBride Populist, and W J Curry, Repub lican.

OVERBOARD WENT THE RAZORS. “Scrappy Bill’s” Story of a Quick-Titted Steamboat Captain. “A friendly thunderstorm once saved a carving match betwecn a lot, of colored baseball fans,” re intes “Serappy Bill” Joyee, “It happer ed in Galveston harbor in 1888, and ai _ time I was captain of the Houston the champions of the Texas lez On a hot Sunday afternoon we we. t» Galveston to play agame with the © 2!- veston team. An excursion stet™::, with a party of colored excursion «ts, all rooters for the Galvestons, left ove of the coast towns early on Sunday mrn- ing. There was plenty to drin}: cn board and the colored sports w:'>:! into it. While the fans were collec ng a high tide a dispute arose over merits of the Houstons and Galvesions. and though the Galveston crowd wee in the majority the Houston push refiord to be downed in the argument. VWobor the dispute was at its height, and a!! in- dieations pointed to a razor finish, the captain of the steamer corkserewe | b's way into the crowd and yelled: ‘Stop this noise. We're going to have thunderstorm in a minute, and [wont you to warn all those who have ] bi the tat stec] weapons concealed on their persons. If vou don’t part with those weapons vou lay yourselves onen to danger. The steel will attract the lightning. Se loo! out!? Every colored sport on that boat rammed his hand into his peeket, ~ulled out a jackknife, a razor or a cun. and tossed them into the sea. The storm was a tame affair and passed over in five minutes. But the quick wit of the captain in separating those sports from their steel saved many a fellow that afternoon.” —N. Y. Herald. His One Great Trouble. An old bedridden fisherman at fashionable watering place wes fre- quently visited during his last illness by a kind-hearted clergyman, who wore one of those close-fitting cler- ical vests with buttons behind. The clergyman saw the near ap- proach of death one day in the old man’s face, and asked if his mind wes a “Qo ay, I'm a’ rich,” came the feeble reply. “You are sure there is nothing troubling you? Do not be afraid to tell me.” | The old man seemed to hesitate, and at length, with a faint return of ani- imation, said: “Weel, there’s just ae thing that troubles me, but I dinna like to speak o’t.” “Relieve me, I am most anx!ous to comfort you,” replied the clergyman. “Tell me what it is that troubles and perplexes you.” “Weel, sir, it’s just like this,” said the old man, eagerly. “I canna for the life o’ me mak’ oot hoo ye menage tae get inta that westcoat.”—T t-Rits. 4 race during the current month. and most important books are , nn ‘> - . y / ANNE 4 ¥ Weep?
