'Too Honest Photograph. '
Lucretia Mott, the eminent Quaker
minister and anti-slavery apostle, was
a woman of rare personal charm, and
5 while not beautiful in the strict sense
was pos-
of it.
Her brother, Thomas Coffin. how-
ever. was not in the least entitled to
any claims of that sort, a fact which
caused him as much amusement as it
did any of his friends. He was once
asked by a friend for his picture, hm
‘ extended little hope that the inquircr
would ever get what he asked for.
“Well Thomas,” said the other, “if
« thee will not get one taken for me
will thee let me have a copy of an old
one?”
“I am afraid I cannot do that
either,” replied Thomas. “The fact is
that I once did have a picture taken
of myself and it was so good that I

“'aSlring Woolens.
The secret of washing well any wocl-
len goods lies chiefly in having the dif.
ferent waters of equal temperature
with none of them at any time too hot
to put the hand in comfortably. Soap
should not be rubbed on the article, but
used in the form of thin suds. It should
be a good, white soap, too. A little
borax is probably the best thing to
soften the water. For washing blankets
or baby flannels it is to be preferred.
Woollen should not be wrung by the
hand, but rinsed or dried by squeezing.
Woollens of any sort should never be
allowed to freeze.
A Doubtful Compliment.

When Mark Twain was first intro-l
duced to Gen. Grant the latter shook _
hands in a perfunctory manner and '
immediately relapsed into his custom.
ary attitude of reticence. There was
an awkward pause; it grew longer and
longer as the humorist tried to think
of something bright to say. Finally,
as if in sheer desperatidn. Twain
looked up with an assumed air of great
timidity and said: “Mr. President, I——I
feel a little bit cmbarrased. Do you?!’
The President could not help smiling.
and Mark took, advantage of the
chance the incident presented to give
place to others. .
Ten years later, when statesmaul

with a twinkle in his eye, said, before

A "corner (Suki.
A pretty sofa corner may easily be
made with a little expense for a sitting
or drawing room.‘ The platform,
one foot in height, may be made by
any amateur carpenter. . Upon this
is fitted a mattress or cushion, which
may then be covered as elaborately_
or 05 'simply as desired, the same
scheme being carried out in the cur-
tain at the back, which should be lined
with a plain cover.
The looping is done by drawing the
fullness through brass curtain rings,
the last on either side being finished
with an ornament, such as a Japanese
fan, or any other effective bit of color.
