THE COLUMBIA HERALD: FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1898. 1 So MAN'S 4JEPHRTMENT. III, i'tt LINES TO A CHILD. Dear little face, brow and clear, With placid uplifted eyes, And prattling lip that speak no evil tiling, , . And dimpling smiles, free of fair-seeming lies, I'nsrhoolsd to ape the dreary world's pretense ! Sweet iniauor nf cloudless innocence! The tenderest llower of nature's fash ion ing, A dewy roseamidt the wilderness, Amidst the desert a clear-welling spring So is thy undissembling loveliness, Dear little face. Dear little hand ! How sweet it is to feel against my own The touch of this soft palm which nev er yet The taint of soul-destroying gold hath known ! Here nature's seal of truthfulness is pressed, Even as her loving touch the lilly blessed With stainless purity even as she set The golden Maine upou the daffodil, And heaven's clear blue upou the vioret, Mav her best gifts be for thy clasping still, Dear little hand! Dear little heart, That never harbored any ill intent, That knows no bitterness nor doubt nor care. But only young life's nestling wonder ment, And stianpe, new joys amidst thy incomplete, Vnllt'dRed emotions and affections sweet ! Veiled by the unlived years thy field, but there The sowing for thy harvest" hath be gun. . ; . When thou shalt reap and bin j, may no despair Rise from that ground betwixt thee and the sun, Dear little heart! Robert Burns Wilson, in the Century. Miss Helen (ioulil. Miss Helen Gould, of Nw York, is indeed a remarkable youn,' lady. Ho far Miss Gould has shown no de sire for society. tShe is only known bv fight even in the exclusive cir clesof New York. 8lie has neither ii box at the opera house nor a villa at Newport, nor does she ever accept invitations to the Patriarch' or any of the ultra fashionable balls of the New York season. Hho is said to bo a sweet looking woman of delicate triune, with tiny hands and feet and exquisitely clear cut profile, dark hair, pray eyes, with black lashes and brows and a dazzling and per fectly natural complexion. Her fa vorite occupation is study, and her favorite hobby alleviating: the lot of the poor. Miss Uould is a devout Presbyterian, but she knows no creed in the distribution of her be nevolence. 8he says that her great est happiness is to make peopl- hap py, and all her chaii ies are made without any publicity. Hhe sup ports two beds in one of the, hospit als. and delights in filling her coun try house with pauper cripples. Oc casionally she receives a few friends in her own circle of life, but neither wines, spirits nor cordials are served at her table. 8he was the favorite vi uei miner, anu to mis nay ins i . . . - ..iinccwvtwis 11.

The wonderful things we have planned, Love, The beautiful things we have done, The fields we have tilled, the gifts we have willed. In the light of another year's sun, When we think of it all we are (milled, There's so much that never comes true, Hecanse, Ive, instead of our doing, We're always Just meaning to do. The friends we are wanting to help, Love, They struggle alono and forlorn, By trial and suffering vanquished, Perchance by temptation o'erborne: but the lift, and ttie touch, and the greeting, That well might have aide 1 them through The perilous straight of ill-fortune, Thev miss: we're but meaning to do. We dream of a fountain of knowledge, We loiter along on its brink, And toy with the crystaline waters, Forever Just meaning to drink. Night fallsand our tasks are unfinished, Too late onv lost chances we rue, Dear Ixve, while our comrades were doing, e only wore meamnir to do. Marhaukt K. S.vnostkh. A l'ew Suii(f,-titloin. Tea color is the latest thing in gloves. Enameled link cu IT buttons set w.th the senrprecioiis stones are among the newest. Everything in the shap of a jacket shows fancy touches. Black and white In jackets is a glowing favorite. Feather belts of nil sorts are sup planting the jeweled girdles used so much with winter costumes, and ribbon belts with fawcy slides and buckels a-e liked best for shirt waists. Sashea lavishly bedecked with spangles have the true Parisian touch and are made for evening wear of all shades of ribbon and white and black. A new pin is ft violet clasp, with dainty arms of filigree silver, which open bv operating u soring at the back. "The silver or gilt arms are wide, and open for the stems of these delicate flowers, clasping them closely, but not so much as to crush the stems. Lovers of these sweet flowers are able to wear them at least twice as long as when fast- ened by. tU harsh, cutting pin, Uicli hastens their drooping. The 1 L'l I clasp itself Is highly ornamental, a well as novel and useful. Black lawn frocks are very dressy. These are decidedly new and trimmed daintily with white or colors. A very sheer one is hung over pink lawn, and every ruftli has an under one of pink. Each black ruffle is corded, and the full bodice is run with cords set in groups of threes. Plaided dimities or ba istes trim many of the black lawns with charming effects. A great deal by way of description could be told of these newest black frocks. Cotton St nil's Take the Lead. Dressmakers are commenting upon the number of cotton frocks that are ordered this summer. Never before, they say, have other and more ele gant materials been so thrust aside and King Cotton's sway been so gen eral, or the designs for cotton frocks so elaborate. Upon the dressiest of summer time occasions the cotton frock appears, t cannot speak for it as the wash able frock, for quite often it is made up without regard to the simplicity that Is necessary to bear contact with the most ordinary method of cleaning. Often when the cotton frock needs cleaning it goes just like a silk gown into the profession al cleaner's hands. ' White dresses, I may truthfully assert, have been piore generously worn. Very pretty and simple morn ing dresses for midsummer are made of fine white French cambric, the skirt with a deepshaped flounce, and the bodice a dainty little affair cut surplice or with a yoke trimmed with tucks and fine embroidery. These are easily laundered and uni versally becoming. The afternoon and evening white dresses, however, are as extremely elaborate as the white morning frocks are simple. The Smartest Petticoats. A fashionable silk petticoat now costs almost as much as a silk gown ; but some new fabrics have been brought out, which have a good effect at a considerable reduction in cost. Among these are the new silk muslins, which have all the stiff re sistance of horsehair, moirette and gloria; they rustle like silk, aud when trimmed with plenty of lace and insertion answer the purpose pxtremely well. We are falling into the great mistake of over-heavy skirts ; a fashionable gown is, in fact, two gowns, one worn ovr the other, and the petticoats ap" arranged on much the same plin. f m- D.meath the outer flounce tli r- i-an under on with several frills, u:id all this de pending from the waist is exceed ingly bad from a hygienic point of view. Hemillfy Your ltathrooin . Would you take up the very latent idea? Then cover your bathroom, walls, ceiling, and floor, ever inch of it, oilcloth. This is a plan that has aroused much enthusiasm, and the oilcloth bathroom is now exceeding ly correct. Oilcloth is less expen sive than tiling and even easier to torl iurl in, muHa H,,..!,, tastes can be suited, and, though those that have never seen a bath room decked In this manner may not be inclined to think so, a bath room that from top to toe, as It were, is of oilcloth is a ver artistic alf air. The oilcloth chosen should be of a pattern that closely resembles tiling and it is best to varnish it thorougly. One of the prettiest designs In the market a design, by the way, that Is used in sever il well known New York houses is of a white ground, with a blue figure. The border is of the "wall of Troy" variety. An other good pattern is of green and white. N. Y. Herald. The Hope Potlere. The Standard Designer, advises: "The lace and silken curtains and portieres can come down and will be all the better for a period of rest, during which time they can be reno vated, and in their places can go the new and artistic rope hanging which some clever person has been kind enough to invent. The ropes can be had of any desired color to match the furnishing or papering of a room, and if desired may be ob tained with tinsel threids inter mingled. Only shades need be used at the windows beneath the rope hangingo, and as these can be drawn up after the sun has set the effect of the different strands of the rope swaying with every gentle breeze is not only cool, but very pretty. F.jr doorways and arches the rope por tieres are far newer than the bead affairs which have been popular so long. Of course, like the latter they are not much of a shield, but to take away from the vacancy of ap pearance they are just what is needed.

The green in itself is a most refresh ing, summary color, and the grass cloth never becomes dusty and con veys no idea of stifflness. The grass cloth can be obtained either plain or figured and is exceedingly durable. The addition of a little brass trim ming to the green oak makes it far handsomer. "At first when the green oak (which truth compels us to say is more often than not merely hard pine stained and varnished) came into fashion, it was used principally for odd bits of furniture, footstools, corner chairs and like, but now al most any desired article for the par lor, dining or bedroom can be ob tained of it. The latest addition is a vry pretty desk, with drawers beneath, suitable for a library or parlor. It has brass handles, locks and trimmings and is altogether a more attractive piece of furniture. The Lively Dessert. A traveling American once had the felicity of sitting down to a Japanese dinner at which were served bucIi dainties as melons, ices, fruits and sea frogs. There was, in addition to these sweets, a covered dish, into which at the be ginning of the dinner a bottle of wine had been poured. , When the sea frogs and other dainties had been discussed, the cover of this dish was removed, and a number of sand hoppers, hilariously intoxi cated and jumping about in the wildest manner, was presented to the gaze of the astonished American guests. The lively dessert was caught by the Japanese, with little bamboo sticks aud eaten with great gusto. . To Make Mock Klsqne Soup.. Season one pint of strained toma toes with a little onion juice and just a suspicion of grouud mace. Heat in a double boiler one quart of milk. Rub together a teaspoonful aud a half of butter and three table spoonfuls of flour. Stir in; the hot milk. When thick and smooth, add to the tomatoes an eighth of a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda. Pour in the hot milk. Add one teaspoonful of salt, a dash of pepper and serve at once. If it id necessary to keep this soup warm, .keep the ingredients apart, until., serving time. Mrs; S. T. Rorer in Lidies' Home Journal. ., , ." A Tempting DUh. . ,.

When dry keep on ice till served for dessert. And a dainty dessert you will find it, my word for it. Strawberries and blackber ries, also, may . be treated in. the same way, but I doubt it they will find the favor that will be shown the raspberries.

W hen black materials begin to look gray or rusty, brighten them by sponging on the right side with equal parts of alcohol aud water, and, while damp, Iron on the wrong side.

There is no good reason whv Christian man should be unduly solicitous about what is likely to happen to him in the future, for the same Father that has cared for him in the past will continue to do so in days to come. The sincerely penitent sinner mav be sure that he is making no mistake in casting himself without reserv upon the forgiving mercy of God. A great thought awemng in your mind, or a great purpose surging in your heart, will make it impossibl for you to be little or mean. Did you ever think that the fact of your becoming so much excited about little things is a proof that you are a little man?

Editor Herald: During the late war a queer character by the name of Amos McQuiston came to Texas and engaged in the occupa tion of building chimneys. From his habits of tramping long dis tances he was called "The walking chimney-builder." Having ac cumulated some money ho pur chased a small farm aud ranch and engaged in raising fine stock. He was frugal and prosperous, lived a hermit's life and was never known to speak about his relatives. He kept his own counsels. His miserly habits attracted the atten tion ot thugs, aud last April, Amos McQuiston was found dead at his home robbed and murdered. His propertv awaits claim of his un known heirs and is valued at $10, 000.00. Possibly his relatives live in your section. The old settlers say that Robert W. lienfroe and Lucius W. Gates, were often seen with him just after the war and claimed to be his cousins though they disappeared many years ago. If the Ileniroe or Uates families can be found they might by able to establish their claim to the McQuiston property. This may interest your readers, and we will give full information on request.
