“You said just now, dear, that mar-

for, after marriage, a woman has her

It is as well, too. to let Will see that,
though 1 am his wife, I have an in-
dividuality of my own. I have read and
I have been told that husbands are too
fond of reducing their wives to a state
of colorless nngunestioning obedience,
of treating them, in fact, exactly as if
they were creatures possessed
brains, hopes or ideas of their own
That state of blind subjection is net

well to say that ene will love, honor and

—he is good an ne and worthy of
honor. Dut obey! That is altogether
different thing. He is only a man
after all, and not so many vears older
than myself.
It is righf, of course, to ober one's
parents ; but a husband —no, that is ex-
pecting too mueh. I cannot think why
they want to put such an absurd clause
into the service. I do not believe tha‘,
when women utter the word, they ever
mean to carry out the spirit of the vow.
Yes, hating duly considered the sub-
ject, I amyather glad than not that this
cause of disagreement has arisen be-
tween us, as I can now assert myself
and show Will that it will be of no use
ever to alfemapt to domineer over me,
as I intend always to have my own way.

Eyesight,
Milton's blinduess was the result of
men or women have made theireyes weak
for life by too free use of the evesight,
reading small print, and doing fine sew-
ing. In view of these things, it is well
to observe the following rules in the
uses of the eyes: Avoid all sudden
changes between light and darkness.
Never begin to read or write or sew for
several minutes after coming from dark-
ness to a bright light, Never read by
twilight or moonlight, or on a very
cloudy day. Never read or sew direc tly
in front of the light or window or door.
It is best to have the light fall from
| above, obliquely over tho left shoulder,
Never sleep so that on the first waking
window. Too much light creates a
glare, and pains and confuses the sight.
The moment you are sensible of an effort
to distinguish, that moment cease and
take a walk or ride, As the sky is blue
and the earth green, it would seem that
the ceiling should be a bluish tinge, and
| the carpet green, and the walls of some
tint. The moment you are
prompted to rub the eyes, that moment
cease using them. If the eyelids are
glued together on waking up, do not
forcibly open them, but apply the saliva
the fingers. It is the speediest
diluent in the world. Then wash your
ace and eves in warm water.

The Four-Leaved Clover.
In Germany there is a belief that the
four-leaved clover, on account of its
crossed form, is endowed with magical
virtues. The general form of the super-
stition is that one who carries the clover
about him will be able to detect the
presence of evil spirits, and will be sue-
cessful at play. In Bohemia it is said
that if a reaiden manages to put the leaf
into the shoe of her lover without his
knowledge on going on a journey, he
will return safely. The four-leaf clover
in various regions is believed to protect
one from witches and keep butter pure,
on which account it is considered a
good form for a butter mold.

Boller Explosions,
There is a most inexplicable dispro-
portion between the English and Amer.
ican reports of boiler explosions in 1880,
For the United States 170 explosions
were reported, and for England but
twenty-eight, although it is added that
the English total is considerably below
the average. The loss of life was for
England sixty-eight, and for the United
States 259 In England the wounded
numbered eighty-two, and in the United
States 065. In the United States the
boilers ¢f wood working mills formed
by far the mest fatal class, while in
England the explosions were chiefly in
iron works. In the period from Octo-
ber, 1867, to 1880, there were in the
United States 1,200 explosions, which!
killed 2,505 persons and wounded 2,612,
land only 854 explosions, which killed
1,004 personsand injured 1,700, In each
case the figures are taken from the re-
port of a company for the insurance of
boilers. Two contrasting statements,
which may throw some light on the dis-
crepancy, are one by the English com
pany that no boiler insured by it ex
ploded, and a second by the American
company, that during the year it abso-
lutely condemned 877 beilers, and more-
over discovered 5,444 dangerous defec ts, |

“Ah! Any charge for storage 7"
“None.”
“Wall, I'm much obliged.”
“Not at all. Any time you leave an

vaults of the department a larger amount
of gold than was ever known to be in
one place in the history of modern times,
and probably more than could be authen-
ticated as existing in a single treasury
at any time before in the world. There
is now about §173,000,000 of gold ein
and bullion, inclusive of some 855,000,
000 in silver, while the Bank of Eng-
land has only about §75,000,000in gold.

A curious fact has been noted by Pro.
fessor Von Tieghem. The cells in the
roots of an apple tree underwent aloo-
