YOUNGSTER.
There's many a temptation to assail
you ,
There's many a dark and cloudy way
And many a friend that will deceive
you
And lead you from the honest waf.
In this old world of so much trouble ,
Alwa3Ts do the best you can ,
At all times and in all places
Never forget to be a man.
If on the street you meet a neighbor ,
Less f ayored in fortune than yourself
Don't put 3four hands into your pockets
Think only of your paltry self ,
But greet him with a kind good morn-
Shake him warmly b.y the hand ,
It costs no more than to be haughty ,
And always shows you are a man.
Or if you're one of the less favored ,
Don't think because you're down in
life ,
STou're not so good as your rich neigh'
bor ,
Or as your neighbor's haughty wife.
Don't think that in earth's busy
reckonings ,
You'ie left entirely out the r a"j
That no one will detect the error ,
If you forget to be a man
There's many ways of doing business ,
We see this proven every day ,
And yet our conscience always tells us
There never was but one right way.
And I am sure life would be brighter
If , when laying out your f utune plan
Y/ou let this always be your motto ,
Never forget to be a man.

TRAPPING ERMINE.
Different JtlctliotlN For the Full
Grown anil Baby Animals.
- The colder the clmi.nte the finer the
fur , says the author of "The Greatest
Fur Company of the World" in Frank
Leslie's Magazine , Jind the difficulties
of obtaining the rare furs are many.
Ermine is at its best when the cold is
most intense , the tav/ny weasel coat
turning from fawn to yellow , from yel
low to cream and then to snow white ,
according to the latitufle and the sea
son.
son.Fox.
Fox. lynx , marten , otter and bear -the
trapper can lake with steel traps of a
size varying- with the game or even
v/ith the clumsy but efficient deadfall ,
but the ermine , the fur of which is as
easily damaged as the finest gauze ,
must be handled differently.
The hunter going the rounds of his
traps has noted curious tiny tracks like
tha dots and dashes of the telegraphic
alphabet. Hi-re arc little prints slur
ring into one annther in a dash ; there
a dead stop , where the quick eared
stoat has paused , with beady eyes alert ,
for snowbird or rabbit ; here , again , a
clear blank on thesnowvhcrethecrafty
little forager has dived beloiv the light
surface and wriggled forward like a
snake , to dart up with a plunge of his
fangs into the h art blood of the un
wary snow bunting.
From the length of the leaps the trap
per judges the age of the ermine. The
full grown ermine has hair too coarse
to be damaged by a snare. If , there
fore , the tracks indicate a full .own
animal , the trapper suspends tlvs noose
of a looped twine or wire across the
runway from a bent twig , which , when
released , springs upward with a jerk
that lifts the ermine off the ground
and strangles it.
If the tracks are like the prints of a
baby's fingers , close and small , the
trapper hopes to capture a pelt tit for a
throne cloak. Perfect fur would .be
marred by the twine snare , so the trap
per devises as cunning a death for the
ermine as the ermine devises when it
darts up through the snow and fixes its
spcarlike teeth in the throat of a rabbit.
First he smears his hunting knife
with grease ; then he lays it across the
track. The little enn.'ne coir.es trotting
in dots and dashes and gallops and
dives to the knife. The knife is frosted
like ice. Ice the ermine has licked , so
he licks th knife. But , alas , for the
reseuiWance between ice and steel ! Ice
turns to wsit'.n- under tlie wan-i tongue ;
stc-oi turns to lire that blisters and holds
the- foolish little stoat by his inquisitive
tongue , a hopeless prisoner , until the
trapper conies.
A Qsiaiiit Old Custom.
A London shop assistant says : "It is
ny duty every night to go out to the
rear of the premises and fire off an old
flintlock pistol. This curious customc
dates back to the uikUlle of the eight-
ccnth eenttu-y. Or.r shop , now in a
crowded north London di.strici. was in
these o'd days prank-ally in the coun
try , and it was the custom of the then
proprietor , who was a timid , eccentric
man , to fire a pistol off every night to
let the would be burglar know he was
armed and prepared for him. Thinking -
ing his custom such a good one , seeing
that his shop was never attempted , he
stated in his will that the custom
should be continued , which has always
been carried out , although , of course ,
we do it now merely to keep up a
quaint old custom. "

HID BEHIND THE RULE ,
One of Jlorace Grceley's Orders That
iiTped HI * Xe vs Editor.
As an editor Horace Greeley had be
come Vicary of the constant repetition
of the word "the" in opening sentences.
One issue of his paper in particular ex
asperated him. Almost every item had
its opening paragraph begin with
"the. " This luck of judgment on the
part of hia writers in the choice of
words received attention. Greeley wrote
a note. This notice he requested to be
posted in the editorial room and caused
copies of it to be sent to correspond
ents. The order read :
"Under no circumstances must the
word 'the' be used in the opening or
subsequent paragraphs of a news ar
ticle. In sentences within a paragraph
it will be tolerated if used with mod
eration. If you cannot write a para
graph without 'the' to open it , omit. "
One day shortly after the issuance of
his new rule Greeley entered the ed
itorial room in a fury.
"How is it that we have nothing in
today's paper regarding Holland's at
titude tofl : - " . ! the policy of the north ? "
he asked of his editor who had charge
of the foreign news.
This editor was aware that he had
omitted an important news item which
at the time he considered 'as unimpor-
tant. But he was resourceful.
"Your rules and orders are positive ,
Mr. Grcclcy , are they not ? " asked the
editor.
"Certainly ! " shouted the famous
scribbler.
"Then tell me how I could have used
'The Hague * for the date line in the
Holland dispatch without violating
your positive order. "
Mr. Greeley was ' oaten , but he mut
tered , "If you fellows could use judg
ment , there would be no need for
rules. "
PONIES AND COBS.
How tlic Distinctions Dctvrucu tlie
Tv.-o Are DcflncU.
A correspondent writes , says thr
Badminton Magazine , to ask me what
a "pony" is not the pony of the bel
ting ring ; he refers to the animal. The
dictionaries which he has consulted tell
him no more than that "a pouy" is "a
little horse , " and he wants to know
where the pony ends and the horse
begins. The term is , cf course , very
loosely used. At Newmarket , where
one might expect accurate definitions ,
the trainers seem to call all sorts of
animals ponies. "I will send round
your pony at S o'clock , " is a familial
phrase to me , and in two cases it has
always portended the arrival of an ani
mal of quite l-i.2. I have searched for
authorities for some time past and
only accidentally came upon one the
other day. A pony , I find it stated , is
strictly applicable to an animal under
.
13 luniU Above 13 and up to 13.3 tl.
creature slicr.ld be known at ; a jii'o- ;
v.'ay , and over ] : j.3 it bcco.us a horse.
This , hoAevcr , is not the modern inter
pretation * , though when the phraoology
was altered I do not know. According
to the Hurlingham rules of poly , "the
hcigiit of ponies shall r.ot exceed 1-1
hands 2 inches , " and such an animal ,
according to my old time authority ,
would be quite a full sized horse. One
cannot . , of course , go against the Hur-
lingham nomenclature- , but I should
be inclined to say tli't in general par
lance anvthiug under 14 hands is a
pony. I am glad my correspondent diJ
not ask for an exact definition of a
1
"cob , " for I could do no better than
suggest that a thickset pony from
about 13.3 to 1J.2 would come under
;
the head. The term "cobby , " at any
rate , has a significance of its own.
Tlie Colniuoine.
There arc sjme good reasons adduced
by those wh * > favor the claims of the
columbine as a national flower. The
colors of the wild varieties are red ,
white and blue. The flower is purely
American , quite widespread , hardy ,
graceful , beautiful. The petals are
perfect "liberty caps : " reversed they
are "horns of plenty. " Columbine
comes from the Latin cclumba. a dove ;
the pjacoftil derivation cf the word
accords well with our national policy ; F
the name1 also recalls Co.'umbtis. the
cf
great uavigrtor and dis--ovrrer. The , j
flower also tends itself well to a" contii
volitional architectural decoration.
md Ili.s Copyright.
Once ? a monlh it was the ? custom of a
clergyman in a neighboring- town to
catechise the Sunday school. Among
thy questions asked was , "Who was
Esau ? " Several responded , but none of
the answer ? was satisfactory , and. as
the paster was about to tell them , one
litlla fellow said. "I think 1 can tell you
what he did. "
"Well. " Mid the pastor , "tell me
what Esau did. "
' Esau was the fellow who sold his
copyright for a mess of potash ? ' Phil
