Prayer by Telephone.
At a small diuner given recently in
a Western city the guest of honor was
a young married wotnau who is the
proud mother of two handsome boys,
both under fire years of age. In their
education she endeavors to follow a
system, after the manner of most young
mothers, and is very particular to live
up to any rule she has made for them.
During au early course in the din
ner, and in the middle of an animated
conversation with her host, she sud
denly paused with a startled look and
cried:
"There, if I did not forget those
boys again! Have you a telephoae in
the house, and may I use it?"
She was taken to the telephone by
her host, and the murmur of her voice
in earnest conversation floated back to
the dining-room. After a short pause
she returned. .
"I do hope you will pardon me,"
she said, "but, you see, I always have
Ooorge and Eddie say their prayers
for me before they go to sleep. I
forgot it to-night in the hurry of com
ing away, so I just called up their
nurse. She brought them to the
'phone, and they said their prayers
over the wire, so my mind is relieved."

Norwegian Firemen,
Captain R. W. Henderson givei
some instructive details of fire service
in Norway. The firemen enter the
service at twenty-two yearn of age,
none being accepted under that age or
beyoud thirty. They are taken on as
probationers, from which grade they
rise to be permanent firemen. A pref
erence "is given to mechanics, who,
when not on firs duty, are engaged in
making the hose, carts, ladders and
other apparatus required in the ser
vice. There is generally high water
pressure to be had, but where engines
ara needed they are usually of English
make. The telegraph and telephone
wires, the water mains and sewers ara
all under the care of the firemen, who,
notwithstanding their many and vari
ous duties, are always ready to turn
out for service. Their pay is very
Bmall from about $4.50 to $6.50 a
week, with quarters, and an allowance
of about $28 for uniform.
The uniform consists of a dark blue
serge shirt, dark navy blue trousers,
stout high and low shoes and a strong
woolen belt, with hook, axes, etc., aud
a leather helmet. The engines are
drawn by sturdy little Norwegian
horses, and they do smart work in
getting to fires, notwithstanding the
heavy loads they have to haul through
the roughly-paved streets. The fire
men are well drilled and disciplined,
and ore thoroughly afficient. Hither
to the houses have been built entirely
of wood, but now the law enacts that
whenever any new buildings are erect
ed in the towns the outside walls must
be of stone or brick. St. Louis Globe
Democrat. Cata at Companions.
The cat, we are told, has been the
companion of the great and famous
from time immemorial. Petrarch's
favorite cat he embalmed, while An
drea Doria, one of the rnlers of
Venice, not content with having the
portrait of his dead cat painted, pre
served her skeleton as the souvenir of
a happy intimacy.
Cardinal Wolsey used to entertain
his cat by his side on the seat of 6tate
when he gave audience or received his
princely company. Rousseau's at
tachment to cats is well known. We
know also how fond Sir Isaao Newton
was of them, fordid he not make holes
in his barn door for their accommoda
tion a large hole for the old cat and
a small one for the kitten?
Dr. Johnson loved cats in spite of
himself, and his particular pet bore
the name of Hodge. The Doctor used
himself to go out and buy the oysters
on which Hodge doted, lest the ser
vants, from having to wait on the ani
mal, should acquire a dislike to him,
Richelieu also was devoted to cats.

Household Hints.
If you have only a little cream and a
great need of butter, try churning
with the egg-beater in a large bowl.
When silver is badly tarnished rub
with a paste made of silicon and alco
hol. So cleansing is this that it is
used in hospitals for the cleauing of
surgical instruments.
When sifting flour for cake it is
more convenient to sift it on a large
sheet of white paper than into a bowl,
especially when sifted several times.
It can be quickly Rathered up in the
paper and turned into the sifter again.
When yon wish to freshen salt fish,
like mackerel, or codfish to be boiled
whole, put it in the water with the
skin side up. Otherwise the salt,
more dense than the water, settles
against the skin and it takes louger to
freshen.
A teacher of laundry work tells her
class that "if in ironing a shirt bosom
you find a little dirt, don't stop to
wipe it oiT until the whole shirt is
finished. Then it will come off easily.
The damp cloth, not wet, is your best
friend when doing fine irouing.
Although courtplaster is useful in
protecting small scratches or abra
sions of tho skin from harm, it should
not be used over any considerable cut
or wound iu process of healing. These
will heal much faster if simply cov
ered with a bit of soft linen held in
place at the ends with strips of sur
geon's plaster.
An expert housekeeper says rancid
butter may be sweetened by putting
fifteen drops of chloride of lime to
every pint of cold water and working
the butter in the water till every par
ticle has co. re in contact wich the lime
water, theu work it over iu pure, cold
water. It is much better not to let
the butter get rancid.
After the egg-beater has been used,
if it is put at once into clean, cold
water and given a couple of quick
turns, theu into hot water and again
revolved, theu shaken free of moisture
aud put iu the warmer for a few min
utes, it is very easily made clean. But
if the egg is allowed to dry on first,
the cleaning is much mora difficult.
Pork Cutlets Have the cutlets cut
from a good loiu of pork, take away
all bono from the meat aud trim each
cutlet neatly; also remove most of the
fat, then seuson the meat with pepper,
riace a gridiron over the fire and let
it get hot, then put on the cutlets and
broil them about fifteen minutes, be
ing careful to turn them several times.
When properly cooked, the pork cut
lets should look a rich brown, but not
burnt and dry. Sprinkle salt over
when dishing and pour roudd a tasty
tomato sauce.

The Spirt ual Side.
The curso of drunkenness on the tide ot
Its physical devastations has been abun
dantly dopleted by the advocates of the tem
perance reform. Tho amount of grain con
sumed in the manufacture of intoxicating
liquors; the number of men whose labor is
worse than wasted In producing and vend
ing tnem; the number of lives destroyed by
them; the number ot paupers and Insane
persons whose woes are traceable to this
sou roe; the effects upon ithe health of in
dividualsall ot these things nro frequent
ly sot forth with sufficient fulness la Im
pressive rhetoric. Some allowances must
pe made for the overstatements of rcnlous
advocates, but there are facts enough of an
appalling nuturo Iu these representations
to call for the most serious thought.
But the worst side of drunkenness Is not
that which appears in these familiar flgu res.
The most frightful effects of the drink habit
are not those which can be tabulated iu
statistics and reported in the census. It is
not the waste ofcornnorthe destruction ot
property, nor the increase of taxes, nor
even the ruin of physical health nor the
loss of Jife, which most Impresses the mind
of the thoughtful observer of Inebriety. It
Is the effect of this vice upon the charac
ters of men as It is exhibited to him, day by
day, in bis ordinary intercourse with them.
It is in the spiritual realm that the ravages
3f strong drink are most terrible.
The Other Side.
A gentleman said to us, "I do not favor
prohibition it would be an injustice to
IIih man in business; besides, it would
hrow thousands out of employment."
We replied, "You do not look at this
Issue from the right side. You tako a con
tractor's view."
Just before tho war closed a Government
contractor said in a car, "I do hope the war
will not close under two years. I will lose
thousands of dollars; besides, many men
will be turned out of employment from the
Government works."
A lady passenger, clad in weeds of mourn
ing, rose to hor feet, nnd, with tearful
voice, said: "Sir I have a brave boy and a
husband sleeping tho sleep of death in a
loldier's cemetery. I have only one boy
left, and he is in front of the foe. Oh,
God! I wish tho cruel war would close
now."

While on steam roads the tracks are
not injured by locomotives running at
high speeds, street railway men com
plain that their tracks are torn to
pieces by the electrio cars. The rea
son for thia is that the plunging aud
rearing of cars mounted on four
wheeled trucks pound the tracks aud
loosen the joints. Cars on short-base
single trucks often plunge sufficiently
to throw practically all the weight on
to the front and rear wheels alterna

can easily be realized.

aa I had been troubled with dyspepsia.
The drain on my system was so severe and
my stomach was so weak I became a ready
victim ot malaria. I feared I could never
regain my health. My stomach rebelled at

when I began to Improve, Continuing
with it, I am now better and stronger than
I ever expected to be. It has purified my
blood and given good circulation. I have
