A Forecast of How Affairs Will He
CunducCed. Two Hundred Ycata
IleBcr.
A visit to the electrical exhibition in
Paris will set unimaginative persons
wondering what kind of a world this
will bo in that twenty-first century to
which M. Gambetta alluded the other
day. M. Gambetta remarked that if
Eeople were impatient to get all possi
le 'political reforms eUeetcd at once
there would be nothing left for the
twenty-first century to accomplish; but
it is probable tliat in two centuries
hence the world will be as different
from that of to-day as the latter is from
the world of the seventeenth century,
and we need not trouble ourselves to
leave work for it to do. It would have
been thought a pretty conceit in Charles
JI.'s reign to talk of bringing water
into every household by means of leaden
iiiping. and even Lord Worcester, in
lis "Century of Inventions," never
imagined anything so fantastic as the
conveying of a combustible gas by such
a method; but we have become used
now to marvels, and can easily foresee
the time when ever' house will have its
electric battery, serving manifold pur
poses, and when most of tlio things
done for us at present by steam will bo
performed by electricity. We have no
occasion to worry ourselves about the
possible exhaustion of the coal mines.
Long before the last scuttleful of coals
is drawn up from the last shaft, coal
will have ceased to be applied to most
of its present uses.
In the house of tho future there will
be no knocking at doors and summon
ing up servants ever' time a visitor
calls. The visitor will touch a button
that will sound a bell, and then ho will
speak through a tube: "Is Mr. Brown
at homo?" Answer, "No." Instead
of dropping his card Mr. Robinson will
say that ho leaves his compliments,
with kind inquiries; and these words
passing down the tube into the orifice
of a phonograph, will engrave them
selves on a roll of tinfoil. When tho
lad' of the houso comes homo she will
turn the handle of her phonograph,
and hear, in the very voices of her vis
itors, what they had to say: "I am Mr.
Jones, who has called for tho third
time to know if it is convenient for you
to pay that little bill," and so on. Sup
posing Mrs. Brown to bo short of funds,
she may want to communicate with her
husband in Bengal. How? By letter,
or by the present slow and roundabout
telegraphs? Uh, no! Brown, as ho
goes out to dine with some friends, will
be called back by his servant saying:
'Mhsis wants to speak to you, sir;
there's her bell ringing," and B., re
turning to his study let us hope with
choerJul alacrity will see the form of
his consort projected into hU prcs
enco by means of the Topper and
Dirk's apparatus acting in conjunction
with electric wires. Brown will forth
worth project his own presentment into
Mrs. B.'s Loudon boudoir, and the con
versation will commence through tho
telephone.
"Please, dear, send me a check for
20 this instant."
"Here it is, my dear," and Brown,
taking up his electric stylus, fastened
to a wire, will write on tinfoil a draft
which will be reproduced word for word,
including his signature, on a correspond
ing piece of metal thousands of miles
oft". The best of this system will be that
it will enable ladies to administer cur
tain lectures at incalculable distances,
for you must remember that, although
Brown might possibly like to dispense
with such "fruits of science, there will bo
an electric bell at tho head of his bed
which will leavo him no peace until he
starts up and says meekly, with his ear
to tho telephone: " .Now, my dear, I'm
listening." He will gain nothing by
taking himself out of doors either, for
will not his wife be able to speak into
his phonograph, so that the iirst time
ho sets that instrument spinning her
words will burst forth in an affectionate
torront, interspersed with sobs! It is
pleasant to reflect, however, that Brown
will be able to make peace by transmit
ting a kiss throujrh tho wires. We,
to-day, transmit sounds and shocks to
a great distance; why should not
our descendants forward pleasant
sensations by electricity? No doubt
some timo will elapse before cverv
house wilLbo fitted up witn a perfect
electrical apparatus; but when these
contrivances get fairly established in
the dwellings of tho rich, there will bo
public electrical offices for persons of
small means. Cannot we imagine what
such an office would be with its vast
hall, its rows of batteries in compart
ments like pews, aud its crowds of
people streaming in to correspond with
friends far away? We may picture a
country couplo coming in to have a
talk with their daughter in Australia:
"Do you want to see her or onlv to
speak to her?" asks the clerk. Tho
old couplo hesitate, for it costs ten
shillings more to set the Pepper proc
ess in motion; but a wistful look passes
over tho mother's face, and the father
winks to the clerk: " Aye, we must see
the lass," and after the delav necessary
to call Bettv from her electrical dairy,
where she is milking twelve cows all at
once by the Messrs. Puller s "Artificial
Dairymaid" (patented), she will burst
into the little box all rosy, smiling and
crying, too, may be. with the halo of
the electrical light round her.
It cannot be doubted that our de
scendants will shoot electric currents
through their chops and steaks and
bring them up fizzing iu a minute. Tho
Frenchman's colcllctte a la minute will
then become a reality. AH the produce
of the earth corn, fruit, flowers, vege
tableswill be cultivated by a happy
combination of tho sun and electricity
acting in concert. When the sun is cov.
the batteries, with their systems of col
ored glasses for intensifying the various
properties of the sun's rays, will go to
work, and there will be no more talk of
backward potatoes then than there will
' be of backward, boys. The sluggish
vegetable, startled to its very Toot by
galvanic currents, willhave to wake up
and take its vivifying bath of warmth
streaming through revolving glasses of
red, blue and yellow; and it wilL.be a
bad time for slugs, snails, caterpillars
and worms, who only exist at present
to consume what man wastes. Man
-will waste nothing when he grows to be
more knowing; and, of course, the
schools of the future will have their
systems for removing the defects of Na-

J he principle of moving ba loons by
electricity lias already been discovered;
it only remains to manufacture an ap
paratus which shall bo light enough, as
well as strong enough, to be carried up
high, and to send a b"g mass of silk,
cordago and car whizzing through the
air. When this difficulty has been sur
mounted. Brown, from "Bengal, wish
ing to spend from Saturday to Monday
with his wife in London, will atep into
an aerial car and be wafted hither with

that he may not lose his wind in the
velocity of his transit.
But what about standing armies and
the rivalry between Nations under the
forthcoming dispensation? Well, it h
highly probable that be'ore the people
of this earth consent to live at amity
they will conscientiously try all the ap
pliances of science for the destruction
of onu-nnother. There will be awful
battles, first at sea with torpedoes, then
on land with electrical artillery and dy
namite shells, which will hash whole
army corps into bits, and finally the
Hcrial navies of this world will smash
each other heartilj' in tho cloud-. After
this, when they have done one another
all the harm they can, the people of tho
earth may take rest ami agree thit war
is a poor" way of killing time; but let
Generals and jingoes take heart. By
the time Nations have begun to enjoy
universal pcaco some method will have
been discovered of putting this globe
in communication with our nearest
neighbor, the planet Mars and it is
easy to imagine what will follow then.
After a brief period passed in the ex
change of polite messages it will bo
unanimously admitted thatolir globular
honor demands that we should de
elaro war against Mars. Possibly
it will be found that our Mar
tian foes are more advanced iu
science than we, and that the varia
tions in our climate result from somo
unjustifiable liberties which they have
been taking with the sun bv focusing
all its rays for themselves. Wo cannot
evpoi-t that our descendants will stand
this; so they will unite all their ener
gies for tho fabrication of mammoth en
gines which will discharge oceans of
water, metal and fire right into the face
of Mars. In return the Martians will
pelt them with acroliths weighing three
thousand tons, which will chip whole
mountains off tho Himalayas and make
a big hole where Mont Blanc now ex
ists. It may not bo forbidden tis to
hope for a blessed timo in the future,
when all tho planets will be in com
munion and plunged in continual wars,
to end, of course, in universal peace.
Then, doubtless, man will have mas
tered all that he is to know, and will
bo ripe for other destinies which we
cannot even guess at Giants will onco
more inhabit the earth giants of cult
ure, no moro dressed in skins and
wielding clubs and we, their, pigmy
forefathers, with our small heads and
hearts and our puny doings, will not bo
so much as remembered among them.

Dr. Holland's Death.
Dr. Holland was told by his phy
sicians, four 3'ears ago, that ho would
not live more than ten years at the
longest, and might die without warning
at any moment Ho had been edu
cated as a pliysician, and knew very
well tho meaning of occasional sharp
pains which aficctcd his heart in mo
ments of excitement. It was partly in
preparation for sudden death that ho
sold out his interest iu bcribner's Mag
azine, and put his business iu such or
der that whatever ho possessed would
not be involved in business complica
tions. He was editor-in-chief ot" tho
Century Magazine, but had no proprie
tary interest in it Two years ago Dr.
Holland had to abandon a lecture tour
from ill health. Since then ho has de
voted himself to quiet work, editing tho
magazine which ho founded, re-editing
a new and complete edition of his books,
which Scribner & Co. aro about to is
sue. Ho passed a great deal of his timo
at his country place, Bonuicastlc, on an
island in the St Lawrence River. Dur
ing the hist summer he has been so
much better that he began to lay plans
for moro work. Ho had designs made
for building e!evcn cottages on his es
tate for rental to New orkers. Nev
ertheless, the heart trouble still mado
itself manifest at times, and Mr. R. H.
Gilder, Dr. Holland's assistant for
many years, said that last summer auy
unusual excitement would bring on a
sharp pain in his breast Dr. Holland
had a yacht of which ho was very
proud, believing it to bo the fastest oh
tho river. Whenever a race occurred
Dr. Holland's excitement was such that
in moro than one instance ho" was
obliged to drop the wheel, owing to tho
pain which warned him of tho danger.
On tho 5th of October Dr. Holland
returned wjth his family to tho city,
and went to work in apparently excel
lent spirits, seeming to be stronger than
he had been for some years. He camo
down to the office every day, and wa
engaged there yesterday most of the
day in writing and attending to editori
al duties. Late in the afternoon he
went to look at somo glass work of Mr.
La Forge. He went home aoparently
I in good health. This morning at six
o clock ne awoKe, compiainingoi sngnc
pain. After talking to his wife for a
few moments he became speechless. A
doctor was hurriedly sent for, but Dr.
Holland was dead before tho doctor ar
rived. Mrs. Holland and Mr. Holland's
two daughters were present at tho
! death-bed. The action of the heart
seemed to have stopped suddenly, and
ho died, apparently without pain, in a
comatose condition. Dr. Holland leaves
a wife one of the Chapin family ot
Springfield, whom he married when
twenty-two years old two nnmarried
daughters and one son, Thcodoro Hol
land, who is at present in tho senler
class at Tale, and was sent for this
morning. Dr. Holland was a regular
attendant at church since his removal

A most extraordinary incident oc
curred early on Thursday morning last,
when Lord Gal way's pack of foxhounds
were engaged in cub-hunting. His
lordship, who hunts the pack himself
with the assistance of the kennel hunts
man, Sam Morgan, and two whips, was
sitting on his horse in Hundred Acres
Cover, near Mr. Foljambe's seat at Os
berton, whilst the pack were drawing
the wood. His lordship fancied he
heard a swarm of b( is, but took no no
tice until he was alarmed to find his
horse's haunches covered with wasps.
He immediately galloped, off to try to
get rid of them, and brushed them away
with his hands and whip-stock, but to
very little purpose, as the horse was so
badly stung, as was shown by scores of
swellings, which came up like knots ail
over it, that it had toTe seat home for
treatment His lordship escaped with
only: three stingi on his seek, aad,

Mrs. Spoopcndykc smiled faintly,
and Mr. Spoopcndykc picked up his
nelrcsi.
It's tho imago of you." she said,
regarding with somo trepidation Mr.
Spoopcndjkc's method of handling tho
infant
I don't sec how you make that

"I don't know when my nose looked
like the thumb part of a boiletflobster
claw. Do I understand 30U that my
eyes bear any resemblance to tho head
of afcerew? '
'i meau the general features," mur
mured Mrs. Spoopendyke.
"The general features seem to be all
mouth." retorted Mr. Spoopcndykc,
examining his acquisition. "If our
general features are at all alike, my vis
age must remind j'ou of an earthquake.
Hi! kiichce! kitchee! What makes her
fold up her legs like that?"
"She can't help it," reasoned Mrs.
Spoopendyke. " They'll .straighten out
in time."
" No time like tho present," quoted
Mr. Spoopondykc. and he took his
daughter's feet aud commenced pulling
her limbs. " I don't want any bandy
legged feet in this family while I'm at
the head of it"
Naturally tho baby bciran to cry and
Mr. Spoopendyke essayed to soothe it"
"lit! kitchee! kitchee! kitch-e-ee!"
he chirruped. "Grjat Scott, what a
cavern! Hi! kitchee! kitch-e-c! You'll
have to get that mouth roofed in before
cold weather. What's the matter with
her, anyway'"
"Perhaps you hurther. Let me take
her, please," plcadcU helpless Mrs.
Spoopcnd3kc.
''She's doing well enough. Hi! you!
Hold up! Haven't you anything to
catch this montn in? It's spilling all
over the neighborhood. Hi! Topsy,
Genevieve, Cleopatra, dry up! I'm
going to have trouble breaking this
young one's temper. " 1 can see that
Here! bend the other way once!" and
Mr. Spoopendyke tried to straighten
his offspring without avail.
" Let her come to me, do, please."
moaned Mrs. Spoopcndykc, and Mr.
Spoopendyke was forced, to hand her
over.
" Well, that's quito a baby," said ho,
nursing his knee and eying tho infant
"What are those bumps over its eyes
for? What preponderance of intelli
gence do they represent?"
" You mustn't talk so." remonstrated
Mrs. Spoopendyke. "She's the hand
somest child you ever saw."
" Well, she's got to stop biting her
nails before she goes any further with
the procession. Hero, tako your hands
out of your mouth, can't you? Why
don't vou put her hands down?"
"Why, all babies do that," ex
claimed Mrs. Spoopcndykc. "You
can't stop that"
"I'm going to try," said Mr. Spoop
cndykc, "and 1 don't waut to be inter

She get's that from your family, Mrs.

"Sa3. dear, don't you want to go

"No," rejoined her husband. "I

"Getawa3" exclaime 1 Mrs. Spoop

the matter with her."
"Of courso 3'ou know." growled Mr.
Spoopendyke. "You don't want any
thing more than a fog horn and a mis
spent appropriation tobe an orphan
asylum. If I had our faith and tho
colic I'd make a living as a foundling's
home! She'll be oldcnough to spauk

"No, sho won't!" said Mrs. Spoop
endyke. "Sho'll never be old enough
for that"
"I'll bet sho will," groaned Mr.
Spdokendykc. " If she isn't, she'll get
it before sho matures up to that period.
That's all. Let me take her. Here,
let's have her."
But Mrs. Spoopendyke flatly refused.
"Keen your dod-gasted baby, then!"
roared Mr." Spoopcmljkc. "If you
know more about babies than I do, then
keep her. The wa you coddle her ono
would think she was a new paste for

brain and a handle, you'd make a fair
rattle-box! Fit you up with a broken
sofa and a grease spot iind j'ou'd do for
a second-hand nurse."
And Mr. Spoopendyke started off to
find his friend Spccklbwottle, who con
gratulated him, and started off with
him to assist in the selection of an over
coat and a pair of car-mufls as precau
tionary against the approaching winter.

"Burnt Children."
There is no terser summing up of the
system or law of natural punishments
than in the trite old proverb about
"burnt children." They do "dread
fire;" and until they have been "burnt"
they don't know anj-thing about "fire."
How should they? Tho oyo teaches
them nothing about it except that it is
beautiful to look at; the car, that it
crackles and roars like a great wind in
a forest, or, in its going out sighs and
whispers like the breath of a lover. To
the chilled frame it is comfort restora
tion, strength; in a myriad ways we
must use it perpctualh or the machin
ery of living would come to a stop and
endless miseries set in at once. Never
theless, if we for a single moment use
it wrongly, let it come too close, leave
it without check, guard, control, it de
stnrys us and our labors in an hour;
having once been "burnt," wo
" dread" it the rest of our lives, and if
we are burnt twice it is not, unless we
are foolish, by our own fault
And in tho training of children all
effective and truly reformatory punish
ments must be devised and dealt on this
plan. It takes much more time than
the empirical method of simply making
sure that if a child is naughty he "suf
fers for it" by means of blows, or other
cheap and hasty methods of inflicting
short-lived pam. If a child breaks a
law either a natural law or a law mado
and founded on natural reasons by a
parent he should be caused to suffer in
the precise way which is the natural se
quence of the particular tyye of offense
he has committed, and would be always
found by him to the end of life to be
the natural sequence of that type of
offense.
This method not only takes more time
than the old empirical method bat it
takes much more thought It requires
no little ingenuity to devise and carry
out such carefully apportioned discrim
inated and discriminating punishments.
But it can be done; and its doing has
this recommendation, that once done it
is done once for alL
A child taught on this plan is taught;
not trained. Vith patience and a per
sistent use of arbitrary rewards and
penalties any yonng animal can be
trained to do aad mot to do a swpris
' ingly large Bomber of things; te obey
sCommaads instantaneously and to rec--ognize
his master aad trainer aa master
'o all occasion. The iaetaat and tech
nical ebediaaee-to. oommaads, which
'mm to be with maaypeream the sole
thing they desire to tec ire aad receive
from their chlldrea. Kemi to me to be
very much on a lerel with the training
aborc described, and of comparatively
little more worth.
There arc many simple and natural
punishments which it is easy to explain
to a child even to a very young child:
and. so doing, to so enforce the natural
law on which they are based that be
will before long understand it a well
as he understands that water wQl make
him wet For instance, if he Is dior
dcrly. and persist in leaving hi play
things in great confusion about the
house, leaves his knife, slate, pencil,
carelessly where they are exposed to
being lost, take thing so left away
from him and hide them. Deprive him
of them at first for a short interval of
time; if this docs not answer, then for
a longer one; and if be still persists in
the bad habit warn him that the- will
be taken awa3" and given to some other
child for good and all. This is what
happens to grown-up people if theyare
careless and disordeny. Their thine
are destroyed or lostf and they have to
go without them, often at great incon
venience. This is the natural, universal,
inevitable punishment of disordcr
liness, lack of system and care
taking. If it should to happen that a
child, persistently disorderly, we're to
some day kse a" much desired trip or
excursion, and be obliged to stay in
doors all day because he could not find
his boots, or cap. or coat, it would be a
lesson worth a hundred .ermons. and
all other sorts of punishments put to
gether. If a child is ill-natured, fretful, cross,
few things work so well as leaving him
alone; not carrying him oft. or shutting
him up. which "at first sight might ap
pear to be the same thing, ami mean as
much to him. Not at all. That is not
what happens to grown people who arc
ill-natured aud fretful. We go away
from them, wo avoid their houses, wo
let them alone. When a mother gath
ers up her work and says: " Well, dear,
I'm going into another rooml I can't
stay in the room with such a cros 003'
an' longer. Come, chlidrcu. come
awa3. Let's go where it is plcasantcr."
that strikes home instantly to the child's
love of companionship, love of appro
bation, sense of shame, in nine c-uos
out of ten he will beg them not to go.
and become pleasanter on tho instant
if she takes him by tho arm, under ar
rest, as it wero, leads him off and shuts
him up, it. assumes instantly the shape
of a penalty inflicted arbitrarily; he is
told he is to sta3 in confinement " till
ho is good." and tho chances are that
he will immediately feel rebelliousness
in addition to his ill-nature, and will
often "stuff it out" a good while in his
solitary imprisonment, declaring that he
likes it
These are only two instances. They
aro enough to illustrate tho principle",
howovcr, and many more would occur
readily to tho mind upon a little
thought. Tho principle is as old as tho
world and will last to tho end of it; na3',
farther! it will last as long as human
souls live; it is the ko3 to the record of
eternity: Cor. Christian Union.

Tho Paris Morgue.
The Morgue is a pleasant, one-storied
building, located on the middle of a
bridge close to Nolro Damo. Evorj
convenience is afforded tho public for
seeing the show. Tho entire front of tho
dead recoption-room is of glass. You
pass in line in at one door and out nt
'the other, aud tako the corpses as you
file through. Even'bodv living in this
part of town takes "in the Morguo on
1 their morning trips to business. Work
' girls, laborers, washerwomen, soldiers
and citizens, all flock hero to see tho
i latest-arrived dead man or woman.
I There is disappointment aud vexation
1 on mornings when the zinc beds on
1 which the dead are exposed, are found
empty. Tho Parisian wants a corpse
daily, and he wants a fresh one. It is
singular how quickly ono here can cul
tivate this tasto for corpses. There is
a fascination in their rigidity and im
mobility, as they lie there quito nude
save the cloth over the loins. Through
with breathing; through with eating
i and drinking. No quiver or shiver 33
the cold jets of spray fall on tho naked
flesh. No uneasy turnings or sh if tings
of position. So itstasall da) while
without, peering throught tho glass,
the uneasy living crowd shutllo and
stare, and worn' and wonder where it
has gone, to and what it is doing, or if
there now be any it to go, or think,
or do. It's an awful mystery which
that stiff mass of flesh has lor them.
Yesterda3 alive and poking about in
the gutter for a crust, while its trouble
some stomach gnawed and cried for
bread, they would havo passed it by
with scorn or indifference. To-iay,
toes up, and nothing inside to gnaw or
fret, or worry or pam, or joy, and it is
a grim curiosity. All about are hung
coats, pantaloons, hats and neckties,
found on tho dead. Tho gandy colors
of somo of those ties are faded by soak
ing in the river. Bonnets, also, with
washed-out uncurled feathers and faded
artificial flowers and leaves. In the
hallway are hung photographs of un
recognized corpses, drowned, murdered
or aspli3xiated. These, too, are nude
to the waist and the stabs in the breast
arc well brought out The pose is tho
lose of the dead limp, unstrung, life
ess, unshapely. Tho arms simply

The least vain of wives desires that
her husband should appear to love her
as well as actually to do so; -and some
act of graceful "courtes', some little
word or motion, nothing in itself, per
haps, but indicative of the tenderness
he feels for her, gives the good wife a
moment of triumph so innocent and
sweet that no one should begrudge it to
her. A careless word, a little forgetful -ness,
quite pardonable or even unnoticed
when they are alone, gives pain when
watchful eyes, anxious to find a flaw in
their wedded happiness, are upon tho
two who arc bound for life to each
other. Bat men are singular creatures.
Generally, it is at exactly such a mo
ment that a husband chooses to give
her the only sharp word he utters on
the occasion; or to say something, quite
unconsciously, which" would lead any
one to accredit them with a multitude
of quarrels and bickerings. He does
not know what he has done, and it does
not improve her temper. Yet men gen
erally love their wives better than all
the other women they know put togeth
er. Those who have the grace to show
this delicately to others are loved the
best by women.

Major Kbonezer D'nn3 a diarist of
tho Revolution, writing at Williams
burg September 15, 17S1, a3-s: "Baron
Steuben is our great military orach.
The guards attend the grand parade at
an earby hour, where tho Baron is al
ways found waiting with one or two
aids on horseback. These men are ex
ercised and nut through various evolu
tions and mitilan experiments for two
hours- many officers and spectntors
present; excellent school this. At
length tho dut3' of the parade comes
on. The guards aro told off; officers
tako their iosts; wheel by platoons to
the rijjht; fino corps of music detailed
for this duty, which strikes up; the
whole march" ofl". saluting tho Baron
and field-otlicer of the i:v as they
pass." We cau here imagine the Baron
in his element, his vigilant eyes watch
ing every movement, and hi.s voluble
tongue execrating in mingled French,
Germau and English every Mgu of ig
norance, of indolence and of clumi
ues. Iu a separate command ho did
not win much distinction; indeed, ho
did not have much chance, for hi.s op
erations in Virginia were brief and
wero not ver3 fortunate. Congress,
however, put a high estimate upon his
Fcniccs, for in 1790 it voted him a life
annuity of $2,500; and he had a plenty
of land also voted him bv dillerent
States. New York jrave him 16.000
acres near Utica. Ho transferred a
good deal of it to his aids. Some of it
he himself improved, aud ho lived until
179L
When Steuben was appointed In
spector there seemed to have been
somo fear that the undefined duties of
his office might give rise to dissatisfac
tion and occasion embarrassment. I lam
ilton was apprehensive that "a fondues
for power and importance, natural to
every man, might lead him to wish for
moro extensivo prerogatives in his de
partment than it would be for tho good
of the service to grant" Yot Hamil
ton considered the Baron "a valuable
man," and thought that he ought to bo
treated "with all the deference which
good policy might warrant" At times
Steuben was verv much discontented,
and almost resolved to quit the service.
He was particularly hampered 13' Lee
and Millliu, or he thought so; but tho
matter was patched up by sending him
to Hhode Island.
The Republic undoubtedly owed the
services of Baron Steuben to French in
fluences. Ho came to this count n
partby through tho persuasions of St
Germain. Perhaps, as a soldier, he was
ready for service in .1113 honorable
cause; but ho liked the United States
well enough to remain in them the rest
of his life. He gave us the benefit of
his great knowledge anil mil!tar3 ex
perience; and it is paying to his mem
ory no doubtful compliment to say that
he was precise! v the man wanted at the

A Warm Berth for Pussy.
My next door neighbor last winter
was a well-to-do German family. It
was tho custom for the hired girl to
place a basket out at the back door with
ajdatc in it every night, and nt an
carby hour in the morning, generally
before any one was up about the place,
tho baker would leave a dozen steam-ing-hot
rolls in the basket for the morn
ing meal. During that tcrribh cold
weather I was looking out of 1113 win
dow ouo morning and saw the baker
put the rolls in the basket No sooner
had he gotten out of the gate than a
cat darted out of a shed, and jumping
into the basket, spread itself over the
hot rolls and was soon enjoying a nico
nap. When tho girl arose and started
to open the door the cat leaped out
and disappeared from view. After
that I of course watched, and for weeks
the cat warmed itself over the rolls as
regular as the day camo. The family
were never any tho wiser, and I pre
sume the rolls tasted just as goo 1 to
them as if pussy hadn't roosted on
them.
The Governor-General of Canada,in
the course of the western tour which he
lately made, was treated to the spectacle
of a buffalo hunt Arriving at a ravine,
the party saw a herd of thirteen buffa

site side. Several Indians mounted on
ponies and armed with rifles were jnst
.dashing upon the beasts. The travelers
joined in the sport and fire of the
frightened, unresisting buffa!oes wero
slaughtered. His Excellency was con
vinced that there was no danger and
not much excitement in the butcher'.
The ingenuity of mankind in the

The Museum at Berlin contains five

Golden Days.
Two P'eis'it 1'Ictarei.
Some one has bcautif ally said- "Kind
ness is stowed away in the heart like
rose leaves in a drawer, to swectea
every object around." A little girt of
about nine years old was walking along
a muddy street in Chicago; her father
held her hand, and seemed very tender
in his care of her. The quality and
style of their garment hinted strongly
of wealth, while the strong, good face
of the father, and the loving, sweet one
of his child, told of something better
than wealth even of depth of hearts.
Just as they reached a crossing, where
the mud was tbickc and the wind blew
stronger, and vehicles of all descrip
tions passed each other In tiresome con
fusion, they noticed a poorly dad old
woman, on whose trembling arm rested
a large basket heavily laden, standing
on the corner, as If fearful of crowiag
over. She looked anxiously at the
whirling carts, aad dfprccaiioglyatthe
passers-by. No one seemed to heed
her as the well-dressed throng hurried
along.
"Come, Edith." said thu father,
"this is a dangcrouj crossing; papa
viu carry you across. -
lie put out his ana, a he spoke lov
ingly. But the child only whispered :
Papa, 1 hare rubbers; I'm aot
afraid ol the mad. Papa, see the poor
old woman she seems afraid of some
thing, see bow she trembles. Couldn't
you help A-rr. papa, while I ran ahead?"
For answer, the geatlemaa ap
proached the old woman, sayiag; m a
low voice;
"This is a tiresome crossing, madam,
let me lead you across; give me the
basket please."
