The Bethlehem girls are among the beauties of the East, and you will find more pretty girls in the 'hills of Judeu than in the same amount of territory anywhere else the world over. A shipload of these Bethlehem maidens, if they could be transported to the great North-West, would capture the bonanza farmers of the Dakotas just as Ruth captured the great land-owner, Benz, and when they came‘ back to \Vashington as Senators’ wives they would be the belles of the capital. These Bethlehem maidens are fair-skinned and hright~eye 1. They have straight, well- rounded forms, which they clothe, in long dresses of white linen, so beautifully em- broidered in silk that asingle-gown requires many months of work. This dress is much like an American woman’s nightgown, ‘ without the frills and laces. It falls from the neck to the feet, and is open at the ront ina narrow slit as far down as 'a modest decollete dress. Over this gown they wear sleeveless cloaks of dark red stripes. and the head they cover with a long shawl of linen embroidered with silk. Each girl wears her dower on her person in the shape of a. necklace of Coins and the forehead of each maiden is decorated with a crown of coins. some of which are silver and others gold.” ‘ ‘ Why, Sensuinxy," said Doctor John, meekly. “ It’s in the air out here to do erratic things, but, the neighbors in your town shall never know, I swear it." ,r _ .. “ ‘1 on see,” smxlcd Doctor John, “ I was right. about our humble vegetable.

Wherever the fur is to be cut it must be marked on the skin side with chalk. not letting it out quite through at first, and then pull the pieces apart, finishing the cut very delicately so as not to spoil the fur. On no nccannt must scissors be used, as they will cut the fur on the outside in spite of the greatest precaution. When it is all cut,the edges to be sewed are brought together and moistened and sewed over- hnnd with waxed cotton thread. Silk cuts the skin. When the seam is sewed it should be laid fur side down on a. board and the seam again moistened, and pressed l flat by rubbing it with a shell or some‘ other smooth-surface artic‘e.

That this figure of speech is correct in describing its appearance I am certified by an incident.

Aye, we are all following somebody. either in right or wrong directions. A fewduys ago I stood beside the garlanded casket of a gospel minister, and in my remarks had occasion to recall a. snowy night in a. farmhouse when I was a. boy, and an evangelist spend- ingu night at my father’s house, who said something so tender and beautiful, and impressive that it led me into the kingdom of God, and decided my destiny for this world and the next.

Getting his strength from God, 'he starts from home with high purpose. of doing all the good he can possibly do in one day.

Another young man 18 who heard that jolly scepticism made up his mind that “ it makes no difference what we do or say. for we will all come out at last at the right place," and began, as a consequence, to purloin.

No phosphorescence in the wake of that ship, but behind it two souls struggling in the waves; two young men destroyed by , reckless scepticism, an unilluminedocean be- neuth, and on all sides of them.

Afterward the two met and Newton tried to undo his had work, but in vain. The young man became Iworse and worse, and died a profligate, horrifying with his profanities those who stood by him in his last moments.
