PRESERVED THE OLD STYLE . j ■ How One Young Bride Brought AL mosphere of the Paet Into Her New Home. A young bride who went to housekeeping In her husband's old home was very much disappointed to find that bls mother, with the very best Intentions in the world had bought a lot of modern furniture and put away some really antique pieces, because she thought they were too out of date to please her boy’s city wife. The wife, however, In a quiet way found out that the new furniture had been purchased with the understanding that the bill be nettled within six months. She talked the matter over I with her husband and hie mother and I then with the proprietor of the store, and. In the end, all the ’‘modern” fur niture was taken back and the same amount traded out for several beautiful rugs and the curtains for all the rooms on the first floor of the old house. Then the bride went to work and fixed up all the “old fashioned” furniture which had been stored in the attic. A dining table was found and four chairs to match. These she had scraped and sandpapered, then a filler applied, and, lastly, a good quality varnish This, when thoroughly dry was again rubbed down until the Anal finish was dull, and the effect was splendid. It suggested age, but good condition. The young wife also removed the screens from the old fireplace and they laid down new hearth-stones of cream brick. And the most delighted inmate of the home was the mother, who saw In It all a vision of bygone days. LONG IMBEDDED IN AMBER Dragon Fly, Preserved for Centuries, Is a Most Remarkable Natural Curiosity. Fites in amber are not uncommon, but a dragon fly, almost perfect, Is unique. The piece of amber with Its large Insect Imperishably Imprisoned was presented a few weeks ago to an English statesman by a rich Russian merchant The piece Is remarkable for Its six* and the purity of Its transparent ye) low, but more especially for this in sect It contains. This partlculai dragon fly flitted about over the marshes of what geologists csll the tertiary period, tens or hundreds of thousands of yean ago, and waa en gulfed by the resin that flowed from a pine tree. This resin, in the course of ages, turned to the stone that we now call amber. Several thousand species of fossil Insects have been found In amber but this is one of the finest ever seen. Life’s Healings. Os all the amaxlng forces of nature —her thunder'aad cataracts, oceans In wild storm and volcanoes In floods oi molten rock, and those hidden mon ster-powen of electricity, gravitation and chemlc affinities —the most wonderful of all Is her healing power, het ability to get over anything, her in finite resources of recovery. Haven't you often wondered why the whole world did not die of ths cholera? And those other plagues nc one seems able to stay, the typho. th* smallpox, the bubonic plague, be aides the awful pests of history, the red death and the black death; wh) have any of them ceaaed at all? One reason of this Is that the foui huge rooms In nature’s bouse are full of health supply. These rooms an sunshine, water, air and earth. For Nature's other name la The Healer. She la the original and only cure-sll And all thia la quite as true in the realm, of mind and aoul as it la In the realm of body.—Woman's World Horse Up a Tree. Visitors to Ferry Bar were muck surprised yesterday morning to see a horse up among the branebee of a tree. The animal had got tn Its un comfortable position by falling ten feet from a bank that overtopped the tree. The tree probably saved ths horse's lite. Blocks and fall were fastened to a tree stump on top of the bill and Lather belta were wrapped about the horse. When the work of hitching the belta waa completed it waa found that the animal could n«t be rescue* until aeveral of the limbs of the tree were cut off. This took considerable time, during which the horse rested and watched ths work of the score or more of men who were trying to release him. With 4be removal of the last limb the horse was slowly drawn to the top of the bank from which be had fallen A dose examination revealed that outside of a tew scratches bo waa uahurL—Baltimore American. •pell Against Evil Eye.
