MARIAR IN HEAVEN.

The pa'son's ben praachid' 'bout heaven* To us who're oaten the fold 'Bout Kates made of jasper and pearl

And streets paved with nuggets of gold. Says the folks there are saints, or else angels, Home playln'on harps with gold strings— (I allow Its a sort of accomp'ment}

To ttimes which th' rest of 'em sings.

And I wonder and think of Mariar, Who left me a year ago May How she tackles to all them tine fixin's—

For she didn't set much by display. lallv JAs any whom I'm acquaint

Hhe was humble and shy like a liven',

Ireckim she don't feel to hum yet When she talks with an angle or saint

When she looked nt the amethyst fences And walks on the streets paved with gold, Don't you s'posc there are times when she longs fur

The lane in which me and her strolled? The old grassy lane through the rnedder, And the stile where my comin'she'd wait— Don't you thluk she'd as lief have the stile there

As the beautlfullest pearly-hinged gate?

And the pond on the farm by the willers. Where she used to pick cat-tails and liowers, Ruther have than the big cristal ocean? "Cause she did love this old farm of ours. Bet me thjjikin' in this way this mornln',

When 1 rooked at the nansies and roses, And I couldn't help wlshln' her with me, •8lead of stayin' up there 'long 'ith Moses.

As fur me, It's lonesome 'itliout 'er— Bo solemn like round the old place, That I'm longin' to die and go to her,

Tho* I reckon I'm Iackin' of grace. Hut If I should be sent down to—t'other, And could sit down 'Ith her by the Are— Why, what could be nicer In lioaven

Than slttln"lJngslde of Mariar?

Taln't orlliydox, this way of laikln', He/, the pa 'sou to me t'other day: And he fetched me to his way o' thinkin'

Which wuz Jest like Mariar's old way. 8o I'm tryln' to live Jest as she did— Go to meetln' asshe used ter do— And her sperlt hangs round me and whispers "Joslah, I guess you'll pull through!" —[Mather D. Kimball.

Circumstantial Evidence.

[Julia Magruder In Detroit Free Press.] If all tho visitors who were prosont on tho opening night of the great art exhibition had been as constant in their attendance HH was Mr. Horace Tomplo, the managers would have made a good tiling out of it.

Tho fact was, Mr. Temple had strolled in rather listlessly that first night, but before he had traversed many yards in his tour of inspection, his attention had boon eiiught by a picture which had so fascinated him that he found it almost impossible to gut his own consent to move on and make way for others, and in a very short time ho was back again, gazing with rapt absorption.

The picture was designated in tho catalogue, "Dolce far Niento," and represented an Italian garden, whore beneath a dense shade of palms and iloxes, a hammock was swung, in which a lovely voung girl, in a limp vvhito gown, was lying at ease, her right hand dawdling with a great fan, and her left thrown up behind'tier head the loose sleeve ialiing back and rovoaiiug a beautiful rounded arm. One foot was hid in the meshes of tho hammock, and the other, Trota which the tinny shoo slipped oiT at the heel, hung over tho side in a posture of absolute oase and inertia. The whito robe mado in classic design and decorated with a (3reek border, hung over tho hammock side ami trailed along the dense greon grass. The details of the picture were exquisitely portrayed, but its matchless charm was in the beauty of the young girl's face, which had so marked an individuality that Temple convinced himself at oneo tliut it was no creation of an artist's fancy, but a faithful likeness of some living human being. As day after day passed by and the picture grew into' his consciousness more and more he got to know every detail of feature, form and dress, even to three littlo spots on the left arm near the elbow, which lie at limit took to be specks on tho canvas, but afterwards found wero three cleverly painted littlo moles which must have been on the arm of tho model.

One ©vonlng when he had stood a longer time than usual before tho object of his adoration, lost in thought concerning the original of this lovely portraiture and wondering where the artist, \vhoi*c name was given as Carlo (Jinzl, had seen and painted her, and was aroused by the silvery strokes of a magnificent clock which" stood near which reminded him that he must tear himself away from present enjoyment and go homo and answer a letter' Tho letter was in form of an invitation, and this' was tho reply to It: "Dear Aunt Sarah:

No one certainly has a kinder or more considerate femalo relative than

am In love already, and the object of these prearranged affections of mine defies the thermometer and remains in thecltv.

On the whole I hope this will prove not altogether unsatisfactory to you, as 1 understand your obiect concerning me to be, not so* much by your beautiful friend as that I shall be—In the abstract —ensnared, and that

When Mrs. Leaton received this letter •»hc happened to be seated near an open window, In conversation with her most intimate confidential friend, to whom she pioweded to read the letter aloud, interrupting herself with various com nlalnts of the provokingnessof her favor ite nephew, who, in spite of all her »f feotionate indulgence of his whims and foibles, was constantly serving her in this sort of style.

As she finished reading and laid the letter down, there was a fttlnt rustling under the window, unregarded by the two ladies and a voung girl who had been sitting very still, sketching the urettv view of wood and river visible From*

Sevellon walked with Tom Jerome." This was the only allusion she deigned to make to the young lady who had formed the whole subject of her letter.

Mr. Temple had been some time in church before he caught sight of the familiar figure of Tom Jerome, and when with a feeling of lazy interest, he leaned forward a little so that he might get a glimpse of the lady standing next to Mr. Jerome and singing out of the same book with him, the delicate, clean cut

Samiliarity.

trofile startled him with a sense of His heart gave abound as he connected it with the face in the picture and saw the resemblance. This girl wore a little close bonnet and a trim dress which encased her charming figure in neat compactness—but face and figure were the same.

When the service was ended he leaned forward and whispered to his aunt: "Make Tom Jerome walk home with you, and let me go with Miss Sevellon.*'

This was a-coming to terms that Mrs. Leaton highly appreciated, though her nephew exhibited no underbred eagerness. The $rst excitement of his discovery had worn off, and he had resolved upon his course.

It was a wonderful thing the next moment to find himself actually being presented in formal style, to the houri of the hammock. Just how Aunt Sarah managed it he did not know, but before long Tom Jerome had gone along in the carriage, and the houri and he were strolling together on a shady little woodland path, and he was saying: "Have you ever been in Italy, Miss Sevellon?'' "Oh, yes. Mamma and I spent almost a year there," was the quick response. "Have you ever had your portrait painted?" was tho next abrupt question. "Never," said Miss Sevellon, coldly, as if she observed and disapproved the bad taste of this informal catechism. "Nor over posed for an artist?" "Never," in a tone grown moi'e positively icj\ "Most extraordinary!" he said, half under his breath. His exclamation was not so low, however, but that Miss Sevellon heard it, and didn't serve to modify her expression. She walked along at tiis sido as stately as a white pigeon, her head alert and her manner distant and eto1' j.

You'd have no motive in misleading mo, suppose," Temple went on after a momentary pause, "and yet I can't help believing you are playing a trick on me."

Playing a trick on you, Mr. Temple," said Gertrude indignantly, "how could such an extraordinary notion enter my head, or yours, either?"

Templo saw he had given offense, and when lie was forced to recognize the possibility that he might be mistaken in his surmise, tho fact was not hard to account for. It was very hard to believe, however, in that possibility, and it was only by dismissing the subject from his mind as far as possible that he oould carry on tho perfectly conventional conversation that ho knew to be tho only one which his slight acquaintance with his companion warranted. 1 lo made a great effort to be entertaining, and by the time they reached the house ho was able to feel that ho had done something toward obliterating the disgraceful impression of his first style of address.

When the early Sunday dinner time arrived and Miss Sevellon appeared with out her bonnet, having changed her church dress for a more relaxed style of garment, tho likoness to the picture was stronger than over. It was not likeness, it was positive identity and, when during the afternoon, Horace found himself near Mrs. Sovollon, in spite of all tho good resolutions ho had made, in'defiance of every instinct of giJbd tasto, his intense interest in tho curious matter led him on until he had contrived to turn tho conversation on Italy, and he then asked Mrs. Sevellon if none of the Itali an artists had ever-prevailed on her daughter to allow herself to be painted.

Mrs. Sevellon had just responded in the negative and was going on to say something more when he became aware that her daughter was standing noar them in the recess of a window, and that she had hoard his question. And this was not all! He saw by the impotuous flush that came to her face and the look with which she glanced directly at him for an in fct.int and then lookod away that she resented as well as hoard.

Overwhelmed with confusion he turned and left tho room, feeling that he had now injured himself past retrieval, lie could not, however, tear himself away from tho place, and the very Idea of returning to the city was insupportable. Ho could never look at the picture again until he had mado his peaco with the original, as ho still persistently believed her. So he telegraphed for his trunks and indicated to his aunt his intention of staying on indefinitely

One evening Mrs. Leatou's guests got up some tableaux for the amusement of tho company, and Mr. Templo, who had declined to act, found himself seated on the front seat, beside his aunt, a very listless spectator, except when Miss

Sev

ellon figured in the scenes, which was very often, as she was the acknowledged beautv of tho party.

He had left liis seat and strolled over to a corner very near the stage, for otherwise tho great start and smothered exclamation he gave vent to must have been observed. And no wondor ho was startled, for just before his very eyes, in a hammock ingeniously swinging in the midst of a clump of large shrubs that admirably simulated a garden was Miss Sevellon in an attitude and costume that exactly reproduced the picture. He al most bold nis breath in the absorption of his attention as his eager eye took in every detail, even to the Greek pattern in tbieborderof her dress and the antique silver coins in the bracelet on her arm. He bent nearer and scrutinized eagerly the surface of that bare left arm, and yes! there in a little group near the round elbow were the three little dark specks. Could circumstantial evidence go farther?

As soon as the tableaux were over he made his way to Miss Sevellon's side, eager and yet timid. To his delight he saw that she seemed to welcome him and he half fancied from her manner she had made a hasty resolution to let bygones be by-gones and to make friends with him. She was so flushed with pleasure and animation and so surrounded herself by appreciation feeling and praise that it seemed difficult to her, perhaps, to be hard on others. She still wore the beautiful white costume, in which she looked far lovller than the picture had portrayed her, and his delight absolutely knew no bounds when he found himself presently leading her to a quiet seat in the hall and supplying her with refreshments from the supper r»m. When they were seated together a

sentful anger,- and without giving him time for another word had joined some people who were passing on to- the ballroom, and left him alone, humiliated and full of self-reproach. And he could scarcely wonder at her being resentful at having her word doubted again in this hold way, but how could he help it? What was he to do? He wandered away, feeling restless and miserable, and took no especial note of his surroundings until he found himself near Mrs. Sevellon, who, seated in a doorway waalooking on at the dancers, among whom Temple now saw the young lady from whom he had just been so ruthlessly parted. To his delight Mrs. Sevellon received him more kindly than she had ever done before, for her manner also had revealed the fact that she shared her daughter's just indignation. It seemed now, however, that she had shared also in her daughter's spirit of forgiveness, for she looked at Mr. Temple as if she, too, was willing this evening to forget the past.

Perhaps mother ana daughter had entered info an agreement to this effect! It looked so.

Mr. Temple approached her with some hearty words of commendation of the tableaux, to which she replied as if deliberately: "Yes, they were very pretty tableaux', I thought—the last especially. It did carry me back so to see Gertrude in that dress. It was an old toilet that she used to wear when we were in Italy^ one idle summer when we spenjro«Er whole time in a dolce far niente and Gertrude was half the day in ji hammock which hung in our gi^rden. I used to try to get her to devatd a little time to her painting for she really has talent, but she was so lazy and*|he old Italian painter whose services I =^as so fortunate as to secure for a few leaqpng found her incorrigible. The lesson uallv consisted of a morning chat, while Gertrude lounged in the hammock and he made little sketches of the trees and an old fountain near bv, which never seemed to cotne for he always thrust them (But of signl and said they were failures when I tried to look at them. He was always urging me to let him paint Gertrude, but she objected to having her portrait paintol and pof' lively refused to £ose for him. So tl lessons came to nothing—and the co teous old man advised mo ntft to coristrain mjr daughter's fiitfet&nt arfc-^and wouldn't allow me to pay him a cent, though he had come several times and really given up a good deal of time to us.'

She was a decidedly voluble parson go —Mrs. Sevellon—ana She pourod, forth this stream of talk h^lf automatically, giving a largo part Of her attention to the dancers all the time. Temple saw that she had actually feen so preoccupied to seem to notice-thaitihe had been treading on grouud that to him naturally have been forbidden. He

treading on grouud that to him Wo Iy indebted to the same pre-occupatioi tho fact that the startled look on his face—as the flood of light was unconsciously shed upon the subject that had puzzled him so long—was uunoticed. "What was the old artist's-name?" he asked. "Guizi—Carlo Guizi," said Mrs. Sevellon, innocently, keeping time with her fan to tho motions of the dancers' flying feet. Tho old fellow might well afford to decline pay for those hours spent by Gertrude's hammock under tho palms and iloxes. Ho had made good use of them.

"What can I do to atone for my shameful treatment of vou?" said Gertrude with a bewitching "humility, when Horace had given his explanation and made his peace. "You can do this," said Horace. "You can consent to my becoming the purchaser of the picture—a thing iny mind is bent on." "I don't know about that," said Gertrude doubtingly. "I have never given my picture to anyone and 1 have always said I never would, except to—" she flushed and hesitated and then wont on. '•But I would have no power to prevent it now—that wretched Italian ha» stolen it it is his, to do as ho chooses with, I suppose." "Never mind the Italian for the pressent.,'' said tho young man eagerly. "What wero you going to say? Who was to be the exception in this case?"

Miss Sevellon's reply was so embarrassed and incoherent that its significance can only be guessed at it is possible, however, that Mr. Temple found it satisfactory, for the next day he bought the picture and the next autumn the original of the picture became his wife.

Gertrude always-doclared that she was jealous of that picture, to which Horace would reply that, as the picture was his first love, she consequently could only be his second, and that she would have to be satisfied with this condition of affairs. _________________

THE BACK YARD.

Many back-yards are abominations to the eve and nose. One fihds in them all sorts of litter and refuse from oyster cans to old boots. Hero the slops of the kitchen are poured to increase the odors which ought to warn every thoughtful person of tho malarial influence breed ing there, to break out eventually in fevers or diptheria. If any member of the family dies from one of these diseases, his death is probablv lamented as a "mysterious dispensation of Provi denee," but the minister would say if he were to visit the back-yard, that death was caused solely by violation of hygienic laws. A very strong argument against a dirty back-yard, is the spirit of deception which it is apt to foster in the young members of the family, for it is a constant deceit to present a clean and attractive front-yard to the gaze of the

assers, while the back-yard is seen. ChildreA should be taught to be clean for the sake of cleanliness, and not because outsiders are likely to criticise them. The best plan is to have a hogshead or large box fitted up in one corner of the yard, and make it a rule to throw into this, old cans, boots, broken dishes, and all such rubbish, and when there is a groat accumulation, to bury or burn it. Have drains made to convey all slope entirely from the house. Make good walks, and let the ground have a fine covering of grass, not weeds. Put up strong supports for the clothes line. Keep the fence in repair and plant currant bushes near it. Set vines about the refuse barrel and train them over it until it is hidden. If you have a receptacle for ashes, let it be something that can be shut up, not a row of old barrels to offend the eye and give out a cloud of ashes every time the wind blows. Make a rule to have the back-yard at all times as clean as the front one,

For the relief and cure of the inflammation and congestion called "a cold in the head" ihere is more potency in Ely's Cream Balm than in anything else it is possible to prescribe. This preparation has for years past been making a brilliant success as a remedy for cold in the head, catarrh and bay fever. Used in the initial stages of these complaints Cream Balm prevents any serious development of the symptoms, while almost numberless cases are on record of radical cores of chronic catarrh and hay fever after all other modes of treatment have proved of no avail.

THE HOME CIRCLE.

HOW TO MAKE A HAPPY HOME. 4

[Mrs. Jack Robinson in Minn. Saturday Spectator.] A girl friend of mine went to a party a few days ago and came back bubbling over with girli3h indignation. "The whole party had been spoilt because a few iiad held back and refused to contribute their share towards the entertainment, and she thought it was just too mean for anything, and that people shouldn't be allowed to go to parties if they were not willing to do what was required of them in order to make tho parties enjoyable." "Perhaps," said I, "they didn't know what to do?" "Yes they did," she insisted, "for they were told, and if they hadn't been, it was their business to look around and try to find out. They are not so high and mighty that they are privileged to go just to have tho rest entertain them. What do you think aboat it, Mrs. R?" "Very much as you do, Edna. I never 3*et saw the person so 'high and mighty,' as you express it, that he had a right to expect to be made happy without he had contributed something to the happiness of others. Did you ever think, Edna, how much pleasanter life would be if ff^cry one did his part towards furnishing: enjoyment for others? Take it in the%ome circle for instance, and suppos#that each 'member exerted himself U) contribute to the general enjoymetf-." "My!" interrupted Edna, "but would-' n'|3t be an ideal home though! But I ess there are precious few of them in existonco.' "I have soen such homes," I answered, "and not a member ever complained that their surroundings were not genial, or that they were not properly understood or appreciated by tho rest of the family."

A startled look came in Edna's eyes, for I had used almost the very words she had used when talking to me a few days ago. She expected a lecture. "But suppose one does try and every effort is frowned down, until they get so they don much care whether home is pleasant or not?" she asked. "Then they have no business to have a home. I feel towards such people much as you do towards your friends at the party. I really think your friends tried to make the party pleasant, but their efforts were not appreciated, because they tried in a way of thoir own that the rest didn't understand, or eaVe understand. They tried to make the rtj' pleasant to themselves instead of others, and that means failure every 10. If a girl or boy tries to make mo pleasanter and fails, it is a sign fhat she trios in a wrong way: she wants to study those around her little more closely, and then try again, forgetting all about the particular kind of entertainment she would prefer. When she gets started aright, there is

leasant? I'm just glad of that, and I wish mother thought as you do. She is always insisting on me doing something for Tom—putting myself out in some way—but she never seems to think that Tom ever ought to put himself out for me in the least. 1 get tired of it, sometimes." "Suppose you showed a willingness, a desire to put yourself out for 'iom, to make home just as pleasant to him as you possibly could, don't you believe he would, after a while, begin to think of your comfort? It would be worth trying, not only for the pleasure it would

fim,you

ive to receive little attentions from but because it might be the means of preventing him from growing into a very selfish man. I've seen men come home from their day's work, throw themselves into a chair, elevate their feet, using chair mantel-piece or stove for afoot stool, keep their thoughts—if they havo any—entirely to themselves, ana

silently read the newspaper. They seldom praise anything done for them let it be ever so satisfactory, and they never fail to complain about it, if not to their liking. They behave very much as most people do in a hotel. They have paid for the privilege of staying there, and do not mean to be cheated out of any of their rights. Such men show that they were not properly trained In boyhood. They were never taught that they had a

duty to perform in contributing to home plessures, and were never watched and compelled to perform that duty, until it become second nature to do so. A membership in a family is a most important position to hold, and its duties doing one's own share of the work, one must encourage his brother members to do theirs, or there Is danger of the family getting into trouble." "MI*. Robinson," Edna jumped quickly, and her eyes sparkled with a new thought, "I've just thought of something I can do for Tom, yes, and papa, too, and I'm going home this minute to do it.

such thing

as failure, and very soon tho rest of the family begin to feel that if she were taken away, her place could not be easily filled. You can be very sure of one thing and that is this: If you hear any member of a family complain of his home, you can mark that member as one of whom his home has very good cause to complain. Ho is failing to do his part towards making homo pleasant he "hangs back,' expecting to be entertained. A perfectly happy home is an-im-possibility, where even one member fails to do his* part in it but each member that faithfully does his share towards making it pleasant, lifts it so much nearer towards perfection.' "I never thought of that before Mrs. Robinson. It would Ijc, a pleasant thought to carry in the mind, even if one folt that, though doing tho best she could, she was not succeeding in doing as she hoped to do." "Perhaps in the 'hoped to do" was where the trouble lay. You may bo certain that if she were really doing the best sho could to make home happy, consulting the others' tastes and not ner own, that she was succeeding. You would only have to got up a little private conversation with the other members of the family, J.o discover just how well. In too many of our homes the young people aro growing up without realizing in the least how much a pleasant home depends upon each individual member, how nedfessary it is that he should do his part in it, and how very, very hard it is, for the rest of the members to make it pleasant, when his share is left undone. A boy has no right to complain that his sisters do not make home pleasant to him, when he has done nothing to make it pleasant to them. If he makes an unpleasant home an excuse to get iuto places where he has no business to be, he is simply committing two sins instead of one, and his parents should take pains to impress that fact upon his mind, from boyliood up. Home is not a place to be entertained, but to show how well one can entertain, and the per son who meets all the homo require ments to the best of his ability, neod havo no worry about how he will appear to outsiders." "Then you don't believe that women have it all to do about making home

Care for the Children

Children feel the debility of the changing seasons, even more than adults, and they become cross, peevish, and uncontrollable. The blood should be cleansed and the system invigorated by the use of Hood's Sarsaparilla. "Last Spring my two children were vaccinated. Soon after, they broke all out with running sores, so dreadful I thought I should lose them. Hood's Sarsaparilla cored them com* pletely and they have been healthy ever since. I do feel that Hood's Sarsaparilla saved my children to me." MRS. C. L» THOMPSON, West Warren, Mass.
