His Mother’s Pudding. -
A man who did not keep in mind that in
boyhood he ate his food with a bet ter sauce
than any cook ever invented was in the
habit—a habit said to be common—of ¡mik­
ing his wife uncomfortable by a too fre­
quent reference to his mother’s wonderful
culinary skill.
Once, however, he was put to silence for
a few days at least.
“John,” said his wife, “I wish you would
tell me just how your mother made her
plum pudding. Then perhaps I could suit
you.”
“Why, she took some raisins and stirred
’em up with pudding and baked it. That’s
all.”
“But, John, real- plum pudding is
boiled.”
“Oh, of course. Mother always boiled it
after she baked it.”—Boston Transcript.

Lonely', you say, with mighty arch
Of sky so grandly bonding?
By bright hued clouds and glittering stars
A tender message sending?
Joyless? When out of crimson cloud
The sunrise pours its glory,
Morn after morn repeating well
Aurora’s cheerful story?
Peaceless? When night with noiseless feet,
From fields of herbs and flowers.
Sweet odors in her mantle dark
Bears to this cot of ours?
Like faintest sounds of distant seas
Pounding some castle hoary.
We hear the great world’s roar and fret
And trace her changeful story.
As far away white gleaming sail.
Turning a bend of river,
A noble deed with radiant flash
Makes every heartstring quiver.
So. thankful, where the kindly stars
Spangle the blue with beauty. 1
We look and breatlje the fervent wish
That all may do their duty.

Gloves at Afternoon Teas.
Gloves, the crowning finish of a well
dressed woman’s costume in public, have
been of late years greatly misused in
American society. One sees thèm worn
at tea tables by the woman elected to.
represent the hostess in/pouring tea. and
even at dinner tables, where the wear­
ers have been known to sit through
many courses with their right hands
bared, the hand of the right glove
tucked Tinder the wrist, and the entire
left glove kept on. From time immemo­
rial the habitual dinner goers of good
society have removed both gloves imme­
diately after taking their places at the
table, and have resumed them upon re­
turning to the drawing room, or'after
using the finger bowls, and before aris­
ing from the feast.
Any departure from accepted custom
that has only eccentricity or a desire for
innovation to recommend it should be
avoided; hence there seems no cause for
taking up the curious fashion just men­
tioned, probably set iff a heedless mo­
ment by some leader of vogue or by an
unfortunate woman of rank whose hand
was made unpresentable by a disfiguring
injury.—Ladies’ Home Journal.
Jenny Lind’s Frankness.
Jenny Lind’s judgment of books,
though undirected by anything like lit­
erary training, always showed independ­
ence and penetration. She was a de­
voted lover of ^Carlyle’s writings, and
the last book she read before her death
was Mr. Norton's volume of the corre­
spondence between Carlyle and Emer­
son. No doubt her admiration for the
great denouncer of shams was largely
due to the intense sincerity of her own
fl.
character, which made it impossible for

comprehended this he gnashed his teeth.
He saw himself netted and entrapped,

in his face that the best and most merci­
ful of those about him turned from him
in shame and pity. Even the girl who
loved him shrank back, clutching the
mantelpiece in the first spasm of doubt’
and fear and anguish. Her wSrds, her
suggestion, had taken from him his last
chance. He saw it was so. He felt thè
Nemesis the more bitterly on that ac­
count, and with some wild gesture and
some wilder word he turned, abruptly
and hurried from the room, blindly seized
his hat and went down to the street.
His feelings when he found himself
outside were such as it is impossible, to
describe in smooth, passionless sentences.
He had wrecked his honor and happiness
in an hour. He had. lost his place among
men through a chance'word. We. talk

He went up to his rooms like one in a
dream,, and, scarcely knowing what he
did, tore the bauble fropa his arm and
flung it on the mantel shelf. By his last
act of bringing it away he had made his
position'a. hundred times more serious,
but he did not at once remember this.
After he had sat a while, however, with
his head between his hands, wondering
if tlris really were himself—if this really
had happened to himself, this dreadful
this—he began to see things more clear­
ly. Still, he could not at once make up,
his mind what to do. Beyond somé

-‘-of course he must resign his employ­
ment—he had settled nothing, when a
step outside made him start to his feet.
Some one knocked at the door of his
chambers. He stood pallid and listen­
ing, struck by a sudden fear.
“The police!” he said to himself.
But a moment’s thought satisfied’ him
that it was improbable, if not impossi­
ble, that this summons should be theirs,
and he went to the door listleslessly anti
threw it open. On the mat stood Burton
Smith in a soft slouched hat, his hands
thrust into the pockets of his overcoat. ’
Wibberley just glanced at him and saw
that he was alone, and then, leaving him
to shut the door, returned to his chair
and sat down in his old attitude, with
his heafi. between his hands.’ He looked-
already a broken man.
Burton Smith followed him in and
stood a moment looking down at him
uncomfortable enough. It .is bad to
have had such a scene as has been. des1
crihed at your house, hut it is worse, if
a man be a man, to face a fellow crea­

Burton Smith felt it so. “Look here.-
Wibberley,” he said at length, as much
embarrassed as if he had been the thief:
“look here;- it will be better to hush tins'
up. Give me this confounded bracelet
to hand back to Lady Linacre and the
thing shall go no further;”
His tone was curiously suggestive both'
of old friendship and present contempt
and pity. But when he' had to repeat
his question, when Wibberley gave him
no answer, his voice grew harsher.'
Even then-the man with the hidden face
did not speak but -pointed with an im­
patient gesture to the mantel shelf.
. Burton Smith stepped briskly to the
place indicated and looked. He was
anxious to spare the culprit as far as pos­
sible. Yes, there was the bracelet. He
seized it, anxious, if the .truth be known,
to escape from the place with all speed.

No doubt despair had partially- be­

did not speak, and Burton Smith had to
put his question more than once before
he got an answer. When Wibberley did
at last look up it was with a dazed face.
“What is it?” he muttered, avoiding the
other’s eyes.
“This is not Lady Linacre’s bracelet.’’
“It is not?”
“No, certainly not.”
Still confused, still avoiding the other’s
grave look, Wibberley rose and took the
bracelet in his hand and glanced askance
at it. And then Burton Smith saw him
start violently.
•
“It is of the same-shape,” repeated the
barrister, ice in his voice; he thought the
exchange a foolish, transparent artifice.
“But Lady Linacre’s has a large brill­
iant where that has a plain boss. That
is not Lady Linacre’s bracelet.”

PREVENTING
If there is, in this vale of tears, a more prolific
source of misery than the rheumatic twinge, we
have yet to hear of it. People' are bom with a
tendency to Rheumatism, just, as th y »re with
one to consumption or to scrofula. - Blight causes
may develop this. As soon as the agonizing
complaint u anifests itself, recourse should be
had to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which ch eks
its further inroads an - banishes th- r eumatic
poison from the Bystem. This statement tallies
exactly with the testimony of physicians who
have employed this fine blood depurent in their
private practice. There is also the amplest pro­
fessional and general testimony as to the efficacy
of the Bitters for malaria, liver complaint, con­
stipation, indigestion, kidney trouble, nervous­
ness and loss of appetite and flesh. After a wet­
ting, whether followed by a cold cr not, the Bit­
ters is useful as a preventive of the initial. ttack
ot rheumatism.
