"Hut, pa, they can fly, can't theyV" '
'Certainly, my boy. They are noted,

"But how can they fly, pa, without any

"My son. 1 think 1 heard your ma call

Then was a sudden rush on Ihu part

inquisitor. Then came, a eries of dis

"My dear, sir.'" observed the parent
upou entering the room, "while I admit

At this point the front door was heard

When over Yoath's recedis track

A tender charm, half winning back
The sunshine that too quickly goes :
How oft is retrospection cast,
Uatraameled fancy floats between

And what that story might bave bees.
But simple words to breathe so much
Of soft regret or sorrow keen.
In truth, there are sot many touch
More hearts than these-It might have bees I
Alone snd loveless, year by year.
Our lives are lived, our ways are planned;
Toting love himself once hovered near,
To wait awhile a beckoning hand.
When wistfully the urchin smiled.
We passed him by with look serene.
Though now. I warrant, thought beguiled
We sometimes say it might havebeent
Oh. simple words that breathe so much
Of soft regret or sorrow keen.
Where is the heart tbey cannot touch.
Oft echoed sigh-It might nave bean t

GEORGE AND HIS HATCHET.
BY OKVA T. WEEK".
OERGE WASHING
TON, who succeeded
King George and
Pontiac in the jear
1776, did many use
ful and ornamental
things, for which he
should ever be held
in kind remem
brance. In nothing,
however,
render his country
such distinirni-hed service as in leaving
to the rising generation his good exam
ple, and the wisdom acquired by a life
of observation.
This habit of observation was ac
quired at a very early age, from his
mother, who taught him that to see the
tail feathers of a peacock moving slowly
thiongh the grass, was usually a sign
that there was an aboriginal following
the tail, with hostile intent. This
started George's young mind to reason
ing from cause to effect, and he some
times turned the practice to good ac
count At au early age he commenced going
to school. Some claim that it was
George who first invented the crooked
pin, au arrangement which is in vogue
in the school-room to the present day.
Iu those days, the school benches
were made of rough slabs, split from
logs. These slabs were used, bark up,
for seats, as it was found that by using
the split side, the students were often
subjected to painful and embarrassing
iutrusioss.
George's first trial of the crooked pin
was simply an experiment-. Having
bent the pin, he imbedded it in the
rongh bark of the seats in front of him,
so as to have the larger part pointing
up. Then he gravely leaned back in
his seat, to note the effect.
It proved so satisfactory that lie made
a practice of repeatiug the operations,
whenever opportunity offered.
George was a mighty hunter in his
day. He loved to take his gun and
trail the fierce; repulsive pole-cat, or
the wily chipmunk through the hills
and dales, and along the winding
stream. Bnt, above all, he loved to
hunt the natives. Hia usual modus
operandi was to strike -the trail of a
large party and follow it like a sleuth
hound until he came within sight of the
camp. Then he would make a mad
rush, at the eame time shouting in a
voice like the crash oi thunder: Iied
demons! Howlin' Hurricane, ther Hus
tler o' ther peerarie is arter ye!"
And the natives would fall down on
their faces, waiting for him to execute
them.
He was a model of the good traits
which aH young men should possess.
The following are examples:
First: He was exceptionally clean
and neat, taking a bath once a day, and
c!eat:iug his fiuger nails every morn
ing.
Second: He was respectful to his
ulterior, until other recognized him
t.s their superior.
Third: He never lied.
The historians relate au incident that
recur ied at an early age, and which il-lutrate-i
the trne nobility of his nature.
While playing in the garden one
morning, he espied a cherry tree which
had I een imported from Europe at a
heavy expense, for the special use
of his father, and he playfully
chop) ed it down jnst to tee what
h father would far.
The e'der Washington caught bight
of Ge-rge. Jr., and the mutilated tree
a' about the same instant. "George,
did you chop that tree?1 asked the
fat he-.
rather," replied Geoige, falter
in cly, 1 would say no but that would
be a lie, aud I know you won't lick me
if 1 tell the truth."
WHAT HIS FATHKK SAID.
ri:i' cry says that the father fell on
the ueck of his truthful son and wept
' teais of great joy, but he didn't.
' The irate pareut grasped George
1 with one hand where his coat fits
tightest while with the other he pulled
a t-prout from that same cherry tree.
I Gearge first came into public prom
1 inence when he was sent as special
teiivoyfiom Dinwiddie, then Governor
I of Virginia, to St. Pierre, whom the
I French had appointed internal revenue
collector for Ohio. He was directed to
tell SL Pierre, a? mildly as be could,
thtt he (St. Pierre) would sleep much
bet'er if he delivered certain lands, of
which he then bad 'possession,
. to tbe English sovereign. He was
j alto to assure tbe French that they
t would be allowed to enter the territory
in question, if tbey came for the pur
' po e of hunting Hnrous, a species of
India . which then abounded. '
W ashtneton started on his journey on
the Ult of October, 1763, with a party
of eight meu, who were to b used as
' be thought best, iu cace of necessity.
He also carried a large flask cf whisky
racd a pair of ear-rings, as a present
- from Dinwiddie to Tasacharison, em
j peror of the Hnrons. Dinwiddie consid

chanson is ever his friend and neighbor,
but cannot consent to be anything more.
Then they led him out of camp, tossing
him lightly over a cliff. Said they in
parting: "Go, and tell Din widdie, the
great father, that we are even his lov
ing and devoted children, bnt we do not
advise him to come West"
Washington was a man of strong per
sonal character, which always impressed
those with whom he came in contact
usually in proportion to the
amount . of contact This was
especially true in the case of a conti
nental officer, while the army was lying
at Newburg.
The Revolutionary war was over, and
Washington about to retire to private
life. The officer suggested that, as the
country was not supplied with a king,
he would be willing to take the place if
his services were acceptable. Wash
ington answered to the effect that while
it was trne that a vacancy existed, yet
George III had been removed for
caufe, solely and purely, and his suc
cessor would not be chosen simply as a
reward for party service. Thus ended
one of the lost incidents of his publio
life.
The Uritish Itlna or lfar.
To an American the bar is a novel
feature on a Britith steamship. In the
City of Rome it is on a lower deck. It is
so small that only one person can be
served at a time. The bartender rarely
wore a coat If he had been greasing
the machinery his shirt could hardly j
have been dirtier. Davy Crockett '
would havo called him anything bnt a
!
gontleman, for he "invariably poured
out the drinks for his patrons. If you
asked for whisky, no bottle was placed
before you. The drink was measured
in a pewter cup and then poured into a
tumbler and placed before yon. The
horn was invariabty a stiff one, more
than any moderate drinker would de
sire. It was the same with brandy and
other liquors. If you called for a pony
brandy, you got the same measure.
This measure of drinks is universal on
all English steamships. With a pre
ponderance of Americon passengers the
taloon-keeper would probably increase
his gains by allowing his patrons to
gage his own drinks. On the Alaska
many Americans ordered a glass of
branky and two pony tumbler?. By
drinking the liquor they got two ponie3
for tbe price of one. Some speculated
in whisky iu the same manner. The
loss to the bar was apparent What
would be made by allowing the Ameri
can the privilege of the bottle, however,
would b-' more than counterbalanced
by the giecd of Englishmen. An old
steamship bartender told me that he
had tried the American system to his
heart's content, and was satisfied that
it was a losing system. "If you allow
one man to pour out bis drink, you
must allow all to do so," he said. "Yon
can't make a distinction on the ground
of nationality. An Englishman is a
natural bog. He will always till his
glass to the brim. As soon as the
officers of the vessel learned that the
bar wa3 being run on American princi
ples, they trebled their patronage, and
doub'ed the size of their drinks. I
found myself going to the dogs, aud
was forced to shut down." English
men seldom go the bar for a drink.
They order what they want by a stew
ard,'and it is brought to them, whether
it is on the deck, in the smoking-room,
the ladieV cabin or the barber shop.
The price of all strong drinks was a
sixpence, or 12 cents of our money.
Wines, however, are ranch cheaper
than in New York. New York Times.
So Sex in Writing:.
A well known newspaper proprietor
telis an experience of his own in illus
tration of his belief that, given a fair
chance, women will often do even bet
ter work than men as writers for news
papers. "For years," be says, "we have
published a weekly article which has at
tracted widespread attention and inter
est. It is. I may say, one the leading
features of the paper. For a long time
it was written by a man whom I bad
not teen. One morning his wife came
to me, saving her husband was ill, and
unable to do his work any longer. For
a number of months past she bad been
writing his editorials for him, and had
now come to ask if she could continue
doing so. 'Certainly,' said I. 'If you
baveTbeeu writing them you can go on;
but say nothiog of the change to any
one.' " Some time after this the hus
band died. On goicg to the office in
the morning, one of my editors met me
with a face a yard long, 'Mr. Blank is
dead said he", 'and I don't know what
we are coiner to do without him. His
j articles were such a special feature, and
there is no one else in the country witn
ability enough to write them.' 'Isn't
there?' I asked. 'But do you think
that thev have been as gocd as
usual of late?' 'Better,' he leplied.
'The artirle became stronger and wiser
the older he grew. During the last few
months they have been particularly
good. We can never secure any one
who could do them one-tenth as well,'
he added mournfully. 'Ob, yes, we
can,' 1 answered. 'It may interest you
to know that for more than a year past
Mr. Blank has not written one line for (
the paper.' Xot written one line?' !
gasped my amazed editor. 'No; for 1
tbe last rear and longer Mrs. Blank has j
been doing her husband's work, aud ,
she is still quite capabie of continuing
to do so.' And she did.and does to-day.
The Almaiini'. ,
The word "almanac" is probably
rnt-pii from the Arabic "Alinanah"
(meaning reckoning. Tables represent- :
ing almanacs were first used by the i
Arabs as astronomical guides, matin- ,
scripts of some of those of tbe middle .
aces can be found in various English I
and European libraries. The British !
rnusenm preserves manuscript almanacs '
of the fourteenth century.
It is believed that Purback, tbe Ger-
man astronomer, pnblished the first 1
printed almanac at Vienna ic 1457.
"Poor Robin's Almanac" the most
famous was first issued in 1C63. Under ,
James L almanacs were monopolized
by the stationers' company and the uni
versities and astrology and superstition
were there principal contents. France j
! has issued more almanacs than any ,
other country.
William Bradford, of Philadelphia, I
issued in 1087 tbe first American
almanac. Franklin's celebrated "Poor
Richard's Almanac," first published by
him in 1732, and continued about
twenty-five years, became very popular
iu this country as well as in England
and France, where its proverbial and
wise utterances were reprinted and
translated." "The American Almanac
acd Repository of useful knowledge'
was pubii.-hed "from 1828 t 18GI ut
Boston. The "National Almanac" which
wa3 a continuation of the abova was
pnblished at Philadelphia for 18ti3 and
18C4only.
There are now upward of 250 alma
nacs published in the United States;
more than or.e-half of which are issued
by patent medicine concerns, issued
sole'y to advertise their remedies.

Like the Chinese, and, in fact, every
other Asiatic race, the Japanese enter
tain no respect for women, whom they
regard as creatures of Inferior Intelli
gence, resembling brutes in being with
out a soul. Thus it Is almost impossible
to bring an untraveled Japancso to com
prehend the deference which the men of
civilized nations pay to women. The
latter, in his eyes, are solely fitted to act
as the servants nay, even as the slaves
of tbe former sex. Seldom, if ever, Is
the wife permitted to sit at table with
Iter husband, no matter how high her
rank may be, and when admitted to his
presence she is forced by etiquette to
approach in tho same manner as the do
mestics, namely, on all fours, with
repeated prostrations. Imagine a young
and delicately natured American girl,
such as, for instance, the fair quakeress
of Philadelphia, who has always been
accustomed to tbe most thorough de
fense and courtesy, thrown for tho first
time amongst a set of men such as the
untraveled friends of her Japancso hus
bandmen who are devoid of every feel
ing, not alone of civilized respect for her
sex, but even of tho most elementary
notions of civilized decency. Anybody
who has lived among tho Japanese, as I
have, writes a New York Tribune corre
spondentnot as a niero interpreter
under the tutelage of an interpreter,
but in direct contact aud understanding
their language will bear me out when I
assert that it is impossible for a white
woman to live among the natives in
Japan without having every feeling of
womanly respect and delicacy outraged
and in course of time, completely
blunted.
A Mystery.
How tbe human system ever recovers from
tbe bad effects of tbe nauteous medicines often
lltorally poured into it for the suppobitive re
lief ot dyspepsia, liver complaint, constipation,
rheumatism and other ailments, is a mystery.
Tho mischief done by bad medicines is scarcely
loss than than that caused by disease. If they
who are weak, bilious, dyspeptic, constipated
or rheumatic would oftener be guided by the
experience of Invalids who have thoroughly
tested Hoatetter'6 Stomach Bitters, they would
iu every instance obtain the speediest aid de
rivable from rational medication. Tbia medi
cine is a searching and at the aame time a
thoroughly safe remedy, derived from vegetable
sources, and possessing, in consequence of its
basis of pure spirits, properties aa a medicinal
stimulant not to be found in the fiery local bit
ters and stimulants often resorted toby the de
bilitated, dyBpoptic and languid.

and until tbe last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years doctors pro.
nouniol It a lo;al disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease, and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manu
factured by I'. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
t he only constitutional cure on the market. It
is taken internally in doses froai ten drops to a
teaspoonfu. It acts directly upon thu blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Bend for circulars and testimonials. Ad

In aa interview with a leading drag house
tho New York Worli. Nov. 9, I8W, gives the
following comment on the proprietors of re
liable patent medicines:
'He is a specialist, aud should know more
ot the dlsonso he actually treats than tho
ordinary physician; for while the latter
may come across say flfty cases In a year of
tho particular disease which this medicine
combats, its manufacturer investigates
thousands. Don't you suppose his prescrip
tion, which- you buy ready made up for 50
cents. Is likely to do more good than that
of tho ordinary physician, who charges you
any whero froni.S! to 10 for giving It, and
leaves you to pay the cost of having it pre
pared? "Tho patent medicine man. too, usually
lias the good seno to eonflno himself to or
dinary, every-day disease. Ho leaves ta
tho physician cases In which there is Im
mediate dnugcr to life, such as violent fe
vers. He does this because, in tho treat
ment of such cases, there are other ele
ments ot importance besides medicine, such
as proper dieting, gocd nursing, a knowl
edge of tlto patient's strength and so on.
Where there is no absolute danger to life,
where the disease is one which the patient
can diagnose- for himself or which some
physician has already determined, tho pat
ent medicine maker says fearlessly: I
havo a preparation which Is better than
any other known and which will cure you.'
In nine cases out of ten his statement Is
true."
This Is absolutely truo as regards the
great remedy for rain. St. Jacobs OH. It
can assert without fear of contradiction,
that it is a prompt and permanent euro of
pain. It can show proofs of cures of chronic
cases of 0, 30 and 40 years' standing. In
truth it rarely ever fails if incd according
to directions, and a largo proportion of
cures is mado by half the contents of a
single bottle. It Is therefore tho best.
