At last, when the daisy was all but gone, when her fingers stopp"d at the last peel, nnd her lips murmured th-s words a little, she dropped her head upon her arms, discouraged, and poor child, she wept! Why weep, little girl? Is It because the word IiIc does not please ou? Oh, if onlv you knew the price of having much of anything! A great deal of wit often results iu cruelty. In shallowness, in hurtful con celt and severed friendships: a great deal of heart often causes unensiness, pain, ..nil-aehe. grief, sometimes the slow wasting away of a. human life; a great deal of uttractiveness frequently means inordinate vanity, false pride, pique, fear, torment, trembling nnd incessant turmoil; a great deal of wealth ofton causes luxury that takes from one, worry that saps, temptations that drain, flattery that captivates and debases. ..,.,, , , No little girl, never long for a great deal in this life, unless It be for a great deal of forbearance, a great deal of goodness, and if it should bo that you will be given mueh of anything, may it never be to your sorrow ! Is passionately the word you long for? Passionately ! Oh. the harm that is done by thnt word ! It stands for trans port, frenzv. excess!

These should always bo drlcdiovcr n form, so they will keep their shapo and size. Cotton nirdspyo should be used for the napkins nnd n good qualit, and It should bo washed before being used. The bands Bkould bo made of n soft, fine flannel, torn In strips, six Inches wide and twenty-fivu or twenty-six Inches long. The edges may be finished with the blanket stitch. The barrow coats can be made of n lightweight flannel, nnd either put in a band or made of a straight strip with three box plaits In the back nnd ono each side of the front. These little plaits arc held in place by feather stitching nnd the. arm liolc is cut out nnd tho fastening over the shoulder is done by ribbons. If the flannel and white petticoats arc put into bands, the band of the flannel petticoat should be a good inch longer thnn the band of the white one, so ns to avoid having two thicknesses of plaits or gathers coming over one another to make a linrn liiincti on tne tender little body. Another wny to avoid the double thickness is to cut the flannel petticoats" princess fashion, having an under arm piece which reaches the entire length, and one piece for the front nnd another for the back. The garment Is well shaped under the nrms and thero in no unnecessary furi- ncss anywhere. The nrmlioles nnd J neck should bo finished with a small embroidered scallop, and tho fastening Is on the shoulders. Tine cambric Is nice for the whlto pctticoata and they may be finished around the bottom with n deep hem or with a hem and a cluster of tucks or with u rufflo of linn embroidery. When finished they should measure one inch shorter than the dress. The flannel petticoat should be still shorter. The little night gowns for summer wear should be made of u light weight outing flannel; this does not shrink much nnd Is soft and ngreenble to the touch when washed. It should never lie sprinkled, but ironed with a warm iron when It Is virtually dry. This makes it soft and silky. This article will be continued next week.
