England. Those men journeyed thither in springless wagons, or in sleds, fole lowing through the woods, trails which ; Were so narrow that a passage for their | teams had to be cut. Months were oo- | cupied in the fatiguing, uncomfortable journey, during which the emigrants | encountered sickness, hunger. wild } | | beasts and wiider Indians. When | “the land of promise’? was reached, j log-hut, with greased paper for win- dows, s door of split boards, and a rude floor, was run up. The inmates of one log-cabin “hung up a quilt, and that, with a big bull dog, constituted the door." Wooden dishes and bowls were used for years after the arrival of the settlers. When yellow clay dishes and bowls were made, the hardy house- wives looked upon them as luxuries. The pioneer mothers were gifted with a “faculty.” They made mince- pies of pumpkins instead of apple, and with vinegar in place of wine and cider, and they used bear's meat in- stead of beef. These pies were sweet- ened with wild honey, and seasoned with pulverized peper. Salt was brought from Onondaga, N. Y,, on ox-teams or pack-horses, aad cost twenty dollars a barrel. Later on, a salt spring was discovered, to which people from all parts of the Reserve repaired in the spring, with a kettle, to manufacture their own salt. Corn bread, baked on a clean board before aroaring fire, was the staple article of diet. It was served smoking hot, and with it a bowl of milk and a wooden spoon: The corn was ground in the hollow of an oak stump; the grinding was accomplished by pounding with a stone pestle, hung to a spring pole. Afterward hand-mills came into us which required two hours of steady turning to grind meal enough to sup- ply @ day’s food to one person. The annals of one of the families of the reserve record that for three months a younger son looked after the supply of corn meal. He had chills and fever, and the ne: hand-mill was at a neighbor's five miles distant. eaug 203 Lpowsy ye0rns paw 3209 oul, Firors Cheaply Without Publicity, ABSOLUTE DIVORCES withont publicity prparties restding in any part of the United ‘ates, for desertion, non- ee intemper- nce, cruelty, Blank application for damp, address, V.

He would grind hi grist, wait until the second “shake” had passed, and then walk home. Another family, whose head was away seeking food, lived for three days on boiled beech leaves. On the fourth day, the smallest son, twelve years old, rushed into the cabin, erying, “Give me the gun! I can shoot a deer!’ The mother took down the gun from the rack, gave it to the boy, and bade the children hush and listen. The report and the shout told of the boy’s succes; he had killed a find deer. The father of another family went twenty miles to buy provisions. His wife and three children were so desti- tute during his absence that she emp- tied the straw of her bed on the eabin floor, and picked it over to obtain what wheat she could. She gathered a handful, which she boiled and gave to her children. A wild turkey ap- proached the cabin; she heard it call, and took down her husband's rifle, which she had been taught to handle. There was but one charge of powder in the house, and that was in the gun. She realized the situation, but, controling her nerves, crept near the bird, and fired. The turkey fell dead, and she had food for her little ones. Bears end wolves were numerous, aml every cabin had its wolf or bear story. There was searcely a pioneer but could brag of having been chased up atree by a black bear. The women could tell of their rude strategy to keep the many wolves from the door. One woman burned gunpowder in a spoon, held through a crevice in her log cabin, to frighten away the wolves. Another kept the spinning wheel going all night, so that her little ones would not be seared by the howlings of the hungry wolves. Women had to be brave. One woman heard én the evening the howl- ing of wolves. She had a few sheep, and having put the children to bed, she lighted a torch and sailed forth. She found the sheep huddled together in the pasture, and saw the dark forms Da EC.

Cheap and Costly Hosiery in Solid Colors and Striking Plaided Designs. Brilliant liste-thread stockings in selid, plain colors and black—especiale ly black—are the first choice in hosiery for all ordinary wear, with either boots or low shoes. The fashionable shades of blue, brown, mode and tan are well represented, and may be worn with low shoes, even in the street, but are not nearly so popular or as appro- priate as black for the purpose. Ribbed lisle thread hosiery finds some pur- chasers, and fancy designs in color and pattern are occasionally selected for slipper hose to be worn at home in the , morning; yet even here the standard plain colors are preferred. Hose of un- | bleached lisle-thread are provided for | ladies who object to wearing the col- ored, and there are the heavier bal- briggan, which comes cheaper, but are | not so pleasant for summer wear. Prices for lisle-thread hosiery, black, unbleached or in colors, range from | 50 cents to $1.50 per pair. For street wear, the boot-top, or! “booted’’ hose is a variety sometimes : chosen. Two contrasting colors are! incorporated in the stocking, the upper | half being red, for instance, and all below where the top of the boot will come, blue, and vice versa. Silk-plaited hose in this style or plain black are | satisfactory for traveling when lisle- thread may be considered rather too light. These cost about 69 cents per pair. Fancy striped cotton hose in quiet | colors are shown in abundance and find many purchasers; but excepting in ex- pensive goods for dressy occasions, the almost invariable rule for all occasions is solid-colored hose. Striped and plaided designs are beau- tifully woven in colored s , white on } black, pale blue and white stripes with small, embroidered polka dots on black, and floral designs in natural colors, wrought on black, pistache green, blue, old pink, tan, and all the fashionable shades. Many of the designs are very striking, and too pronouneed in effect for general dressy wear; indeed, most ladies prefer to match the toilet with a plain silk stocking, which is always possible, as the plain silk hose may be hadin all shades of fashionable at a moderate price ($2.90 per pair) for such beautiful belongings. @pen-work spun-silk hose, for evening wear in summer, are light and pretty in colors, slate, gray, tan, mode or black; but the pink or blue open-work stocking is no longer a fashionable choice. Dainty silken hose with insertions of Valenciennes or plat Vallace command aprice which, placing them beyond the reach of many, is enough to insure colors their distinction. All the delicate evening shades, as well as black, and white for bridal toilets, are to be had in silk stockings striped on the instep with white or self-colored lace insertion and silk embroidery, alternating, or a still more dressy style has diamond-shaped insertions surrounded with rich em- broidery. Beaded silk stockings are seen in limited variety. The beauty of the daintily colored or ornamented hose described above is “set off by the neat opera slipper, so long popular for evening wear. Slip- pers may be worn plain or ornamented with bows on the toe, and sometimes the instep also, the latter secured with anelastic to each side. These orna- ments may be bought separate from the slippers and worn at pleasure, or slippers may be purchased already dec- orated.—Demorest’s Monthly. ———_ THROWING THE SLIPPER.

Bishop Watterson, of Columbus, O., who 1s here after a protracted trip to the continent and to the Holy Land, ives his experience in Jerusalem. He | says: After spending nearly a month | at Rome I landed at Alexandria, and left Egypt filled with feelings of intense | eagerness to be among the historic | scenes of the Holy Land Landing at Jaffa I journeyed te Jerusalem, where Ivenerated at sacred places both in | and around the Holy City. I said mass | in the Chapel of the Holy Sepulcher and was obliged to sleepin the church all night to be able to do so, as Turk- ish soldiers close it at certain hours in | the evening, and will not allow any i the morning. I then went on to Nazareth through Samaria, taking country routes everywhere, otherwise one misses many very interesting localities. The only evidence of modern civilization I could see in the Hoty Land was a tele- graph running between Jaffa and Jeru- salem and Nazareth. Otherwise the country is just as it was two thousand years ago, as far as progress is con- cerned. Children and grown people wear the same cut clothes, and every- where one could see maidens dressed just as we are familiarized with pictures of the Virgin Mary. On one occasion I telegraphed to Nazareth | for horses, where they are less used, and, therefore, fresher than at Jeru- salem. After four days the horses came in charge of a dragoman who had formally been a Bedoumn, but who has for some years been a convert. He was a very good fellow, but too anx- ious to spare his horses to satisfy my notions. Iwas continually obliged to keep in the lead in order to press on. “One day Isaid to him: ‘I see now why you became a Christian; you are too slow to be a good Bedouin.’ He laughed and said nothing, but on the last day of our journey from Mount Carmel to Nazareth, when I was push- ing on to get under shelter before nightfall, he said: «You told me the other day that I became a Christian because I was too slow to make a good Bedouin. All that Thave to say is that I could make as good a Bedouin as you do a bishop.’ “I appreciated the retort none the less because it took him so long to con- sider it.”” “What were your most striking ob- servations in the Holy Land?"’ «Ah, that would take a book to tell,”’ sighed the Bishop. ‘It is impossible to convert the people from Moham- medanism under the present form of government. The Turks are as watch- ful to-day as they were three hundred years ago. All the converts have either to be taken under immediate protection or sent off to France or Italy. There can be no progress in any form for the Holy Land until the Turk- ish Government is gotridof. It would never have existed were it not for the apathy of Christian nations. Russia is very desirous of possessing Palestine, and she is making more headway there than any nation. The sisterhood which has obtained a footing in the Holy Land is growing in in- fluence. Mohammedans and Jews alike attend their schools, but the nuns are not allowed to teach religion. During my whole four weeks in the Holy Land I could see nothing to indi- cate that this cradle of Christianity en- joyed ever so slight a share of its in- heritance.”” When in Jerusalem Bishop Watter- son and another prelate assisted the Patriarch of Jerusalem in the ceremony of tendering to the young Prince of Naples, the Crown Prince of Italy, a religious reception into the Holy City, which the young man, according to ancient custom, entered on foot. It was a great sight, an immense proces- sion of monks and the religious ac- companying the Patriarch and the Bishops.—London Cor. N. ¥.

Although it seems hard that such grievous things can be, it would not appear hard for servants who are entrusted with the purveying for large families to reduce the trades- man to a complete state of subjection. What could be easier than fora servant to relinquish a butcher who refuses to comply with the general custom?
