When Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote ths poem, having for title the same heading as this urticle, sho touched a chord that vi brated Jp thousands of hearts. For Aver's Alujanao, "The Old Yellow Almanac ol the po©, is Intimately associated with the days and deeds of a lnrgo part of the world's population. How large a part of the popu lation this general statement may include can bo gathered from the fact that th yearly Issue of Ayer's Almanac is from 17,000,000 to 25,000,000 copies. It is printed iu twenty-eight editions and iu some eighteen languages, including, besides Eng lish—Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, German, Swedish. Danish, Norwegian, Lohemlun, Welch, Italian, French, etc. The old stylo almanac is looked upon by many as a relic of antiquity, especially the "patent modi oiuo almanac," whose jokes are the butt often of the very papers iu whose columns they ilrst appeared. But there are almanacs und almanacs. Ever since Dr. Ayer's Almauuc has been put out it has employed as high a cluss of mathematical and astro-, comical talent as is available in the country. The result is that it stauds on a par, in respect of the reliability of its data ami the accuruoy of its calculations with the U. 8. Nautical Almanac, and testimony to this fact Is found year after year in the letters, re furred to the almauuc department of the company, from students and mathematicians in various parts of the world. In its per manence and reliability Ayer's Almanac stands as a very fitting type of the Ayer llcmudics—lndispensible in the family uud reliable every day in the year.

On tho recommendation of the British Comptroller of Er.ison Indus tries it has been decided,' as an experi ment, to purchase dolls and havo them dressed by female prisoners, with a view to profitable employment, to take the place of [oakum-picking, whioh is to be wholly discontinued as a task for women.—Philadelphia Record. A SCHOOL OF MANNERS. In Bnssia there is a school where girls of sixteen are taught to meet the roquiromonts of tho Russian courts. It is the desire of these girls, and it is considered a great honor, to become waiting-maids to tho Empress. These girls dress very beautifully and live in state that they may beooine aooas tomod to court manners and dress. The Czar supports these sohools, but the Empress selects her maid of honor herself. Some who tako tho training never serve as maids of honor.—The Outlook. FEATnEII AND FLOWER HATS. At some of the leading millinery shops, says Harper's Bazar, nro still to be seen hats and bonnets made entire ly of flowers. This, of oourse, is not a new style, but tho shape is different from that used for tho last few months. Violets J are the flowers generally employed, and in spite of[tMfcir be ing oalled flowor;hats, thero [are knots of velvet twisted iu and out among tho flowers. These hats are in toque shapes or in big flat hats. Much newer are the hats com jTosed entirely of feathers. These aro mndo iu turban shape, and one of fonthers of tho greon parrot is very soft and effective. Another is of grebe-skin, whioh is so fashionable with seal-skin fnr this winter. For tunately these hats present too serious a disadvantage to make them univer sally popular—tho feathers are rarely becoming against tho hair and skin, so that there is not mnch danger that the poor birds will be slaughtered to gratify a fad.' BEAirrY OF THE CREOLE WOMEN. As you seo his faoe you will know that ho (the Creole husbaud or father) realizes that no flower upon the lily coverod altar is half so fair or so flt for the temple's perfeot ndorning as his blooming wife and budding daugh ters, who sit in lino beside him. If ho doos not think these things ho is a dullard—or, maybe, only half Creole. Perhaps his mother was an American, or Scotch. Aud then—? Perhaps ho would not think them because they might not be true. They would be other things, other things jast as lino and good, no doubt—they might even havo raro beauty of a different type but the oreole woman is a flower. She is a magnolia or jasmine—occasionally a camellia—or, especially whon there is a good warm drop of Spanish blood in her veins, she is a red, red rose—a rose too sweet to pass untouched but for her perfeot dignity aud a piquant hauteur that is as protoctive as any thorn upon a rose's stoni. Properly speaking, or rather, nar rowly speaking, the oreole is an Ameri oan, born of French or Spanish par ents, or of both, and, strictly, both parents should themselves bo foreign born; but tho creolo is often only the great-great grandson of a oreole, aud some of their families of purest blood oould not reaoh the mother country without going hack through three or four American-born generations.— Ruth McEuory Stuart, in Ladies' Homo Journal. IMITATIONS THAT TEMPT. Women with an inborn taste for beautifnl things, but with no exten sive means of gratifying it, nro this season more than over tempted by a brilliant display of inferior imitations of very many of tho splendid fabrics aud garnitures now the rage—spangled deoorations, velvets, furs, ribbons, fancy jewelry, jet, feathers, etc. Sim ple articles of wear that are genuine are ulways a far better olioice than elaborate imitations of the richest. A meretricious stylo never commends admiration, and inferior goods q aickly betray their quality. Boat material with lougor wear is the safest rule for thoso who have not been overb'.ossed by fortune. But, while holding out a warning against the purchase of seo ond-rate materials, it is not to be un derstood that there are no valuablo and beautiful fabrics and trimmings that are not high-prioed. Never has there been an age or a year in history where so much that is genuine and really desirable oould be purchased at so low a price as now. It is in the choice aud opportunity presented for ohoioo for real valuable textiles that is tho secret and point of this matter. It is not necessary for the womau of modest means, who loves, for instnuQj, dainty laces, to select a poor imita tion of a real hand-made design. The stores everywhere provido hor with beautiful "fancy" laces-that imitate nothing, but appear upon their own charming, attractive merits, laoes pro duced by almost mifaaulous iutricate machine processes—delicate of pat tern, dainty as a cobweb, and beauti ful enongh in offoot to satisfy any but a critic lavish of means and so prod igal of money and the rarities it can provide, that nothing in tho world is quite right or quite good enough for satiated tastes. No, there is a very great differenoe between tho meretri cious materials whioh tempt so many women and thoso which aro inexpen sive yet desirablo and beautiful, and one has only to mako a holiday tour of our stores, now so brilliantly and temptingly nrrayed, to peroeive with her own eyes this particular differenoo and distinction.—Now York Tost.

There is one woman physician in Munich, one in Pranktort-on-the-Mainand four in Berlin. Two women have beon appointed on tho Baltimore Charity Board. Ono of them is Dr. Mary Shurwood, director of physical training nnd visiting physioian at Bryn Mawr College, nnd also lecturer on pathology at the Woman's Medionl College at Philadel phia. The other is a Miss Kato Mc- Lean, for many years a prominent society woman of San Prnnoisoo, aud always a philanthropist of raro execu tive ability. Bellofontaino, Ohio, boasts that in its midst lives the only woman in tho United States who makos a good liv ing as a sign paintei.

Sho intends to gather about her the thirty or forty women still in Paris who. in her opinion, can oonverso, and, in accordauoo with this design, inscribos her invitations with the words "To talk," iustead of with the stereotyped word "Music" or "Dancing." FASHION NOTES. To insure warmth silk petticoats aro beiDg lined with light-weight flannel. This is an exceedingly sonsiblo fash ion. Wraps of black velvet arc lined with brocade, embroidered with jet und liu lshed with a collar of whito or giay fur. By fur the prettiest glove to wear with a black jaoket is of black dressed kid, with three stripes of heavy whito silk stitching. Entire oostumos of brown velveteen have vests of yellow broadcloth, satin or cloth of gold, with additional trim ming of marten, mink or sable. The fashionable fan is a veritable toy, it is so small. Tho empire is the approved stylo iu the tiniest size, aud it is more beautifully ornamented than over. A blouse bodice of black velvet, cov ered back and lrout with "ft lattice; trimming of gbld cord, and turquoise beads set iu at intervals) so'that thbro is a' bend at each crossing, is very effective with a wide corselet belt of black satin, a black satin collar, and plain sle.evqs of velvet with a small puff nt the top. HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS. GOOD MUTTON. Mutton must be chosen by tho firm ness and fineness of the grain, its color, and tho firm white fat. Lamb that has been killed too long can bo dis covered by examination of tho veins in the nook. Those aro blueish when tho meat is fresh, out green whon it is stalo. In the hind quarter, the point to examine is tho knucklo, whioh is not firm when tho moat is not per fectly fresh. THAT COLD DINNER. Farmers' children who have to walk a milo or moro to school should bo provided with substantial lunches, especially in winter time. Buttered bread, cako and cookies aro insuffi cient nourishment after tho long morn ing walk and three hours of study; tho afternoon session and homeward walk sharpens up their appetites, and as a rule they go stiaight to the pan try as soon as they got homo, cat an other cold lunoh and consequently spoil their supper. It is not strange that so many country children, who should be the most vigorous, havo stomach troubles beforo thoy aro in their teens. Mothers should make a special study of cold dinners, having thorn as varied and nourishing as possible, and besides this, have tho children's supper early. This will be convenient iu winter, for we all like our evening meal at 5 o'olook, but it summer it necessitates an extra meal, especially when tho supper is to bo hearty—for digestion should be well begun beforo the early bod hour. At first it will seem quite a task, but ono will soon become used to it, and it pays in the end; in haying and bar vesting, especially when extra holp is hired, it is much nicer for tho mother and childion to havo thoir tea before tho mon folks. Whon we stop to consider, it is a long wait for tho growing ohild (tho time betwoen tho early breakfast and tho G o'clock supper, tho only hearty meals they have), unless tho oold lunches are made moro nourishing. Wo lmvo known of many cases where children (not of poor parents, either) havo been ashamed to open their lunch I basket beforo the others, its contents being so meager and uninviting—left covers, anything that happened to bo cooked. This is all wrong; it is but a triilo more work to prepare them nice lunches, cookiug tho articles on the previous day while getting dinner. Of broad and buttor thero should be plenty, aud cold moat as often as pos sible; veal or boof loaf are nico lunoh dishes aud are vory inexpensive; smoked fish, Balmon, halibut or eveu herring is good for au occasional re lish ; hard-boiled eggs are nice onoo in a while, also cottage cheese, moulded in cups. Nice sandwiches may bo made fiom odd bits of meat or fish chopped fine and moistened with salad-dressing. When chickens come upon tho bill of fare, *avo some of the wings and forologs that are tho favor ito pieces for tho majority of children ; they will enjoy them tho next day at school. There aro many wholesomo and ap petizing dishes that may bo taken from any modern cook book, nouith ful dainties, suoh as sponge cake, gra ham wafers, cream gingerbread, oat meal cookies and fruits, should be provided instead of rich pastries. D iked apples aud cup custards are nice, also small cups of jelly (beef ex tract cups aro about the right size) will bo appreciated; cranberry and apple-sago jellies are very appetizing, and at tho same time inexpensive. Always provido napkins; paper ones will do, and they aro sold as cheap as 12| cents per hundred. Farafliue paper is capital for keeping broad, cako, etc., fresh, aud it can bo used several times. Small tin boxes are eonveuient for packing meat or fish. If a child's ap petito fails, as is often the oaso in the spring time, havo tho lunches pre pared out of her sight, aud have "sur prises" as often as possible. —Now England Homestead. RECIPES. Baked Spring Lamb Chops—Season and cover with egg and bread crumbs. Bake in the oven until brown, and servo with green peas or tomato sauce.

The reformer is a living declaration of war. It robs the world for a man of abil ity to live in idleness. When the world comes to its worst, it will soon be at its best. Keep the heart young, and tho body will be slow in growing old. The man who wears a hair shirt hates those who dress comfortably. Tho inventor of pins did more for the world than the builder of tho pyra mids. There is such a thing as having great influenoo without having groat talont. It is better to have little talont and a noble purpose, than "much talent and no purpose. Nothing pays smallor dividends in spiritual results, than making a spe cialty of discovering the shortcomings of other folks. Much of the trouble in this world is caused by tho man with the beam iD his eye trying to point out the mote in his brother's eye. How it would soften the push of the door in the book agent's face some times, if we could see tho little hands that stretch out to bread. — Ram's Horn. Tiger Gratitude. The Pall Mall Gazotte recalls a diffi cult operation whioh was successfully performed in tho Zoological Gardens, Dublin, a few years ago. : Ono of the finest tigers in tho collection was threatened with gangrene in its paw, tho olaw having been distorted and grown into the foot. Rev. Samuel Houghton, M. D., Senior Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin, and a well known personage in the Irish metropo lis, undertook to perform tho danger ous experiment of operating on tho paw. Tho mate of tho tiger was first se cured in a side den. A not was thrown over tho tiger, and he was drawn for ward to tho door of tho cage. Four stont keepers then held the feet of tho struggling animal, while Professor Houghton out away the diseased claw. The suffering beast furiously ondeav ored to get at him during the opera tion, but the rage of the tigress look ing on through the bars of the side dou was muoh more terrible. She roared and flung herself violently again and again against tho barriers in her mad desire to go to tho rescue of hor mate. When the tigress was admitted to the oage after the wound of hor mate had boen dressed and tho net removed, sho turned up.the paw aud examined it with tonohiug sclioitude, and thou licked hor mate as a cat licks her kit ten to soothe him, purring softly tho while. But perhaps tho most oxtror dinarv of tho affair was the se quol. A week later Professor Hough ton was again at tho Zoo to HOC how his patient was going ou. When the animal espied him ho bogan to purr like a cat, allowed him to examine his paw and seemed pleased that ho should do so. Indeed, for years afterward tho tiger and tigress showed themselvos most friendly and grateful to Profes sor Houghton. Tlio Lordly Floorwalker and IIIs Dulles. lu an article in Seribnor tolling how a groat department store is oouduoted Samuel Hopkius says: Tho floor walker, sometimes called AU "usher" (either namo is equally inadequate as desoriptivo of his duties) gots from sls to $lO a week, and ho earns it fully. What the buyer is to the inner man agement of the store ho is to the out er. To tho public ho is nothing more than a politely convenient living di rectory, who knows promptly that tho ribbon sale is seven counters down to tho left, and that oarpet-sweepors may be found at the end of the middle aisle on tho third floor. Suoh matters as those are the simplest of his duties. To keep his salespeople up to tho standard in dress, deportment, aud activity ; to bo polite to everybody ; to stand as a buffer betweon tho sales people and the wrath of those who have grievances againßt tho storo for goods missent or other mistakes made ; to see that tho rules are obeyed; in short, to bo tho arbiter of conduct and storo etiquette; theso aro enough to guard him against enuui. Under a combination of a farseeing, shrewd buyer, and a courteous, hardworking j "aisle manager," as ho prefers to bo called, with a kuack of managing peo ple, auy department will more than pay its sharo of tho expouses of tho establishment.
