How One Young Bride Brought At, mosphere of the Past Into Her New Home. A young bride who went to house, keeping In her husband’s old home was very much disappointed to find that his 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world had bought a lot of modern furniture and put away some really antique pieces, because She thought-they were too out of date to please her boy’s city wife.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 settled within six months. She talked the matter over with her husband and his mother and then with the proprietor of the store, and, in the end, all the “modern” furniture was taken backhand the sama amount traded cut for several beautiful rugs and the curtains for all ths rooms on the first floor of the «A4 house. Thon the bride went to work au4 fixed up all the “old fashioned” furnk I tore 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 fillet applied, and, lastly, a good quality varnish. This, when thoroughly dry was again rubbed down until the final finish was dull, and the effect was splendid. It suggested age,, but good condition. The young wife also removed ths screens from the old fireplace and they laid down new hearth-sten.es 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. Flies in amber are not uncommon, but a dragon fly, almost perfect, it unique. The piece of amber with its large insect Imperishably imprisoned was presented a few weeks ago to an i English statesman by a rich Russian merchant. The piece is remarkable for Its sizs and the purity cf its transparent yel low, but more especially for this in sect it contains. This rarticulai dragon fly flirted about over ths marshes of wi at geologists cal! tht tertiary period tens or hundre-ls of thousands of years ago, and was cn 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 for- il insects have bees found In amber but this is one of the finest ever seen. Life's Healings. Os all the amazing forces of nature —her thunder and cataracts, oceans in ! wild storm and volcanoes in floods of molten rock, and these hidden mou-stcr-powera of electricity, gravitation and chemlc affinities—the most wonderful of ail is her healing power.hei ability to get over anything, her in finite resources of recovery. Haven’t you often wondered why the whole world did not die of the cholera? And those other plagues nc 0119 seems able to stay, the typho, ths smallpox, the bubonic plague, be sides the awful pests of history, ths red death and the black death; why have any of them ceased at all? One reason of this is that the font huge rooms in nature'e house are full of h -alth su; ply. These rooms art sunshine, water, air and earth. For Nature's other name is Ths Healer. Sho is tb.o original .and only cure-all. And all this Is quite as true in th« realm of mind and soul as it is in the realm of body.—Woman's World.

Hc.-co Up a Tree. Visitors to Ferry Bar were much (surprised yesterday morning to see a horse up among the branches of a free. The animal had got in Its uncomfortable position by falling ten stet from a bank that overtopped ths tree. The tree probably saved ths Jjcrse's life. Blocks nnd fall were fastened to a tree stump on top of the hill nnd leather belts were wrapped about ths horse. When the work of hitching the belts was completed it was found Hint the animal could not be rescued until several of the limbs of the tree were cut off. This took considerable time, during which the horse rested and watered the work of tho score or more of men who were trying to re lease him. With tho removal of the last limb tho horse was slowly drawn to the top of the bank from which he had fallen. A close examination revealed that outside of a few scratches he was unhurt—Baltliuoro American. Spell Against Evil Eye. Southern India is a laud of omens and superstitions. These are remnants of the religion of the lost Dra. vidian races, engrafted ypon the Hinduism of their conquerors. Edgar Thurston, in a book on tho subject Just published in England, gives an exhaustive account of the strange bellefs of these various races, where human sacrifice, though forbidden by law, persists. , The author cites among other jharma against the evil eye impressions of the hand in red point, which may bo seen on the walls of mosques and other MGhntnmednn buildings and at Kadur on tho house? of Brahmins, * photograph of ono of which, takem ar si?, Thurston, is
