" Before the season

closes we expect to see

the ' Sunbeam ' one

of the most popular

mounts in the North."

— I VhceleVi.

' ' The ' Sunbeam '

is everything you could

expect a good high-

grade bicycle to be."

Cyclifig.

THE '* SUNBEAM '' IN JAPAN." The ' Royal Sunbeams ' are grand. The way they stood the ride down the Tokaido

(the road down which I have just been riding) is little short of wonderful. Just imagine if

you can, going at one minute at a pace of about twenty-two an hour on a grand surface,

and then plunging nearly up to the axles in mud in a hollow right in the centre of the road,

and then being brought up quite sharp—in fact, dismount. The machines seem not a bit

the worse for it. The tyres, too (Clinchers), have only been pumped once since they left

England."—From Mr Jessop's descriptive journey in Japan.— C;r//;/^.

A good name is a. rich irJieriiitace.

WORDS WHICH MAY INFJ-UENGE US.

The wealth of the mind is the only trjte wealth.

Sunshine.

World was never brighterThan it is to-day :

Hearts were 7iever li^hter-

Doii t care what they sa^

Ne7'er mind the weather-^Get up wheti yoti/all

;

We'llget there together.

Singing, after all.

-jHTrARD work is only hard to those who do*-^*>-^ not put heart in it.

TuERK are no really strong people in this

world but good people.The art of happiness in love consists In gi'ving;

everything without asking for anything.It is a faith in something ai.d entnusiasm for

something that makes life worth looking at.

Theke is no day born but comes like a strokeof musi^: in o the world and sings itself all theway through.GoVE.'<NMENT snd co-operation are in all

things the laws of life ; anarchy and competitionthe laws of death.

M.\kh; j'OLirself complete master of what youhave learned, and be always learning somethingnew

; you may then be an instructor of men.Wealth is a steep hill i

which the father climbs I

slowly, and which the sonoften turnbles down precipi-

tately.

Since I cannot governmy tongue, though withinmy own teeth, how can I

hope to govena the tonguesof others ?

Great talents need tobe balanced with great hu-mility. It is a lack of this

ballast that causes peoplew ith the big head to toppleover.

j

These words from the '

Eible are often quoted—" Put not your trust in

princes," but the end of the sentence is forgotten—"for they are but men."The thoroughly great men are those who have

done everything thoroughly, and who havenever despised anything, however small, of God'smaking.Whether any particular day shall_ bring to

you more of happiness or suffering is largely

beyond your power to determine. Whether eachdaj' of your life shall give happiness or sufferingrests with yourself.Whatever your sex or position, life is a

battle in which you are to show your pluck, andwoe be to the coward. Despair and postpone-ment are cowardice and defeat. Men are bornto succeed, and not to fail.

There are two things which will make ushappy in this life if we attend to them. Thefirst IS never to vex ourselves about what wecannot help ; and the second, never to vex our-selves about what we can help.The human heart is like a millstone in a mill.

When you put wheat under it, it turns and grindsand bruises the wheat into flour ; if you put nowheat under it, it still grinds on, but then it is

itself thst it grinds, and it slowly wears away.When facts are wanting, and speculation, or

conjecture, is the basis of our opinion—or beliefor faith—we are as helpless as if navigating un-known seas in thick weather. WTien we are off

soundings, of both authority and reason, a plum-met of feathers is as good as a plummet of lead.

wHREE things come not back—a sped arrow,a broken word, a lost opportunity.

A MAN begging for bread and buying beer is agreat discouragement to charity.

If you want your wife to be an sngel, tieat

her like one, and see what comes of it.

LoviNGKiNDNESS is greater than laws, andthe charities of life are more than all cere-

monies.The world is full of people who want to do

good, but they are in no hurry about makingthe start.

There Is a paradox in pride : it makes somemen ridiculous, but prevents others from be-coming so.

Whenever you hear a man dissuading youfrom attempting to do well on the ground that

it is "Utopian," beware of

_ that man.Never wait for a thing

to turn up. Go and turn it

up yourself. It takes less

time, and it is surer to bedone.Things that will wear

are not to be had cheap,whether it be a fabric or aprinciple ; if it is to endure,it must cost something.

If wrinkles mus: bewritten on our brows, let

them not be written upon

jthe heart. The spirit sliould

' never grow old.

Never be discouraged by trifles. If a s; ider

breaks his thread twenty times, he will mend it

as many. Perseverance and patience will accom-plish wonders.No man can be said to have reached the

higher walks of life, for when he has reachedwhere the higher walks are supposed to be, hestops walking and commences to ride.

A house ought to be an interpretation of themind of its owner ; in reality it is seldom any-thing of the kind, because inexperience andhaste put it together, and everyone knows thatwhat is there remains.The chief art of learning Is to attempt but little

at a time. The widest excursions of the mindare made hy short flights frequently repeated ;

the most lofty fabrics of science are formedby the continued accumulation of single pro-

positions.

Merely to avoid what is disagreeable has

nothing to do with pride of station. Vulgarsociety is disagreeable, which is a sufficient

reason for keeping aloof from It. Among people

of refinement, association or even friendship

is possible in spite of difference of rank andfortune.

Jealousy violates contracts, dissolves so-

ciety, breaks w^edlock, betrays friends andneighbours ; nobody is good, and everj-one is

either doing or designing a mischief. ItsrI.seis

guilt or ill-nature, and by reflection it thinks its

own fault to be other men's, as he that is over-

run with the jaundice takes others to be yellow.

Gentleness does more than violence.

LISTEN TO THE LITTLE PEOPLE.

Children andfools are prophets.

" -HT^OBEIE," said the visitor kindly, "haver^^ you any little brothers and sisters?"

"No," replied wee Robbie solemnly; "I'm all

the children we've got."" Who were the foolish virgins?" brought the

prompt answer from a wise little girl, " Themas didn't get married."

A Sunday-school teacher told his infants to

ask any questions they had in their minds, and a

little one asked, "When is the circus coming?""You never saw my hands as dirty as that,"

said a mother reproachfully to a little girl of

ieight. "Because," said Julia, "I never knewyou when you were a little girl."

"Papa, will you buy me a drum?" "Ah,buf, my boy, you will disturb me very much if I

do." " Oh, no, papa ; I won't drum except

when you're asleep."

The little girl wasnursing her dolly verycarefully. " Is dolly

sick ? " asked the child's

mother. '

" Yes, mamma,the poor little sing can't

digest all 'at sawdustwhat she's eated."

Little Brother: " I

know the gentleman'sname that was talking to

Cissie under the mistle-

toe last night." "V\^hatis it, Bobbie?" " It's

George Don't. I heardher say ' George, don't,'

ever s > many times whennobody was there.

'

A LITTLE boy was being shown the engravingof a human skeleton by his father. After study-

ing it for some minutes in silence, he looked upinto his father's face inquiringly, and

_said,

" Papa, how did this man manage to keep in his

dinner?"

" Bovs," said a teacher in a Sunday-school," can any of you quote a verse from Sdripture to

prove that it is wrong for a man to have twowives?" He paused, and after a moment or twoa bright boy raised his hand. " Well, Thomas ?

"

said the teacher, encouraginglj'. Thomas stood

up and said, " ' No man can serve two masters.'"

The question ended there." So you enjoyed your visit to the menagerie,

did you?" inquired a young man of his adoredone's little sister. "Oh, yes. And, do you

^^HY_, mamma," asked a sweet youngmiss of five,

'

' why do people have tv/o

ears when they can only hear one thing at atime?"Little Daisy's mamma was trying to explain

to her the meaning of a smile. " Oh, yes, I

know," said the child; "it's the whisper of alaugh."A little girl asked her brother what was

capital punishment, and he said that he thoughtit was being locked up in the cupboard with thejam and other nice things.

Mamma: "Harry, you must be sill. Norespectable person will stamp and pound andshout the way you are doing." Ha;-ry {doublyaggrieved): "Why, mamma, I was only just

imitating the way papa preaches."Mamma: "You must

mouth and eyes around awfully, and sister said it

looked exactly as you do when you are reciting

poetry at evening parties."

An excellent suggestion was that contained in

the remark of a little ten-^^ear-old girl from the

country, who had been visiting a summer friend

in her city home. "Did you have a eood time?

"

asked the child's mother v.'hen the girl came backfrom her week's visit. " Beautiful ! " replied the

little traveller, with great enthusiasm. "Why,they were so polite they made me feel just as if I

"

be very careful. Thedoctor says your systemis quite upset." LiltleDot :

" I guess it is. Myfoot's asleep. Folksmust be awfully upsetwhen they goes to sleep

at the wrong end."A little boy who

was told that the tiny

baby sister he was bend-ing over had come fromheaven, looked at herawhile, and then said,

softly, " Please tell usall about heaven, babj',

before you forget it."

" RocK-A-BY, baby !"

began the new nurse in a Boston family. "De-sist !

" exclaimed the infant imperiously. " I amaware that the vibration of the atmosphere will

cause a cradle suspended in a tree-top to oscil-

late."

Bobbie: "What are descendants, father?"

Father: "Why, the people who come after you."

{Presently) " Who is that young man in the pas-

sage?" Bobbie: "That's one of sister's de-

scendants, come to take her for a drive."

A little girl, four years old, happened to besliding upon the ice during the frost, when she

suddenly fell heavily, and was evidently badly

hurt. At the sound of her sobs a friend rushedto her assistance, and caught her in her^ arms." You poor little thing ! how did you fall ? " she

asked, sympathetically. The mite raised her

ow, we saw a camel there that screwed its|head and replied, between her sobs, " Vertically."

So much for kindergarten training !

A wealthy lady and her little daughter werelistening to the morning music on the piazza,

when the lady's-maid handed her a letter whichshe tore open and proceeded to read._ The little

daughter looked at her and exclaimed, " I'msorry ; I hoped that was from pa. Why doesn't

he write?" "Hov/ do you know it isn't frompa?" the mother inquired. "Because you're

reading a lot of it," the little girl replied. " If it

was from pa it would just say, ' Dear ma, amsorry you aren't feeling well. Enclosed please

find cheque. Your loving husband, Sam.'"

What it Was.

The fair girl sat in !icr

boudoir at her ebony escri-

toire writmg a letter. Sheshowed everJ' sign of sup-pressed emotion, and herpen raced over the paperas if she would win by adozen lengths. She nmt-tered to herself at timesas if her anger was toomuch for silence, and herface was flushed.

At last the letter wasfinished, and when shehad sealed it, the slappedit down on the desk withsuch force that the mag-nificent inkstand of bronzeand silver fell to the floor

with a crash, shivered into

a hundred fragments.The girl's mother in the

room below heard thenoise and ran frightenedinto the hall.

"Oh, Imogene!' shecalled in breathless eager-ness, " what vras that '?

''

"Nothing, mamma,"replied the girl, going to

the door.-

" But I heard a terrific

crash," the mother in-

sisted. " Didn't you breaksomething?""Yes, mamma. It was

only my engagement withMr. Hackenberry." Andthe fair Imogene returnedto her escritoire and stucka stamp on the fatal letter.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Before January is at an end a few flowers are

in bloom. Train neatly roses, clematis, honej'-

suckle, and other creeping plants. Any still un-

planted bulbs, such as the tulip, narcissus, etc.,

should be put in the ground during the first openweather. Any bulbs planted in the close of last

year, and now appearing above the ground,should be looked to ; it is well to shelter the morevaluable sorts by layers pf fem-leaves frpm frost

and snow. Delicate plants must B'e taken parti?

cular care of at this time. Unless they are pro-

tected, they are in more danger of being harmedby frost now that the sun has more power, thoughthey are less liable to be harmed by damp. Inhouses, cinerarias, primulas, etc., will now be in

flower. If the weather permits, sow early peasand beans in sheltered borders. Should bees bekept, feed them, if the weight of th'e hive showsthat they require feeding. After earch fall, shakethe snow off eversireens.

The AshanteeExpedition.

The history of this expe-dition will be familiar to

most of our readers. Inthe autumn of 1895 an ul-

timatum was despatchedto King Prempeh, themonarch of Ashantee, re-

quiring him to consent to

the presence of a BritishCommissioner at Coomas-sie, and to the establish-

ment of a British protec-torate over Ashantee. Hewas also called upon to

abandon human sacrifices,

slave-trading, and thesubjugation of the neigh-bouring tribes.

On the delivery of this

ultimatum the king tookno notice of it, and it wasat last decided to send anexpedition against him,under the command ofSir Francis Scott.

This e.xpedition was asuccess. In his march to

Coomassie, the capital ofAshantee, all the obstacleswhich Sir Francis had to

encounter were ofa mate-rial kind. King Prempehwisely forebore makingany attempt at resistance.

The entry into Coomas-sie was effected on the17th of January. As thevarious contingents of theBritish force entered thetown, they formed up in

the palaver square. KingPrempeh, surrounded byhis chiefs, was seated onone side of the square,

and made no manifesta-tions of any kind whilethe troops formed up andlined the square.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Whenever the weather is favourable, set aboutany work that was hindered in January by frost

or snow. Creepers with drooping flowers, suchas glyceria, cobia scandens, etc., should now beframed horizontally, while roses and others are to

be trained upright. Pinks, polyanthuses, thrift,

box, and all plants employed for edging borders,may be moved in suitable weather. On milddays admit air freely to auriculas, pelargoniums,and other hardy pot plants. In the last week ofthe month sow mignonette and hardy annuals in

a warm border for subsequent transplanting.Sow radishes in a sheltered border, but protectthem with fern leaves or light litter, and uncoverat every favourable interval. Peas sown now

will be ready for the table about as soon as thoseplanted in November, and will yield a moreabundant crop. Plant them in drills wide at thebottom, and spread the seed regularly. It is acommon error to sow them too thickly and in

narrow drills ; the wide drill is particularly im-portant for marrow-fats and other branchingsorts. Sow Bath or green Egyptian cos lettuce.

Carrant and raspberry bushes unfold their leavesat the end of this month. Prepare netting andother protection for wall trees, and use it whenthe buds begin to swell during the prevalence ofnorth-easterly winds. Before the b ids are muchswelled, prune apricots, peaches, nectarines, andplums ; and also apples, pears, cherries, etc.

The Thoughtful Dog-Stealer.

FRIEND of Laiidseer's asked him to

(3^- paint his dog for him ; but on the dayfixed che animal was found to have been stolen.

The artist promised to recover it, if possible,

and went to a vi^ell-known dog-stealer, telling

him to let him have it—no questions asked.The man said he could not possibly find it under

a fortnight, and at the end of that time appearedwith it ''You see," he said, " I did steal thedawg ; but I sold it to such a trump ov a holdlady for such ban howdacious price, I thought I

must let 'er'ave the benefit of it for a fortnight!

"

He had Said the Same Once." James, dear, will you bring me up a scuttle ofcoal from the cellar? " said a busy wife.

" That's just the way with you !" said James

with a frown, as he put dov.'n his book and rosefrom the arm-chair.—" Just that way with me ?

"

"Yes!" he snapped, "as soon as you see meenjoying myself, you have something or otherfor me to do. Didn't you see I was absorbed in

my reading?"— ' Well, dear, I will do it myself."

_"Yes, and tell everybody—your mother espe-

cially—that you have to carry your own coal upfrom the cellar. No, I'll do it. Let me markmy place."

So he marked the place in the book at whichhe had ceased reading, and when he went downto the cellar, grumbling all the way, she pickedup the volume and found that it was a love-stor^'.

The passage he had been absorbed in was asfollows :

—" My darling, when you are my wifeI will shield and protect you from everv care.

The wind of heaven shall not visit your face tooroughlv, those pretty hands shall never be soiledby menial tasks, your wish shall be my law, yourhappiness "

Just then he reappeared, and, dropping thescuttle upon the floor, said, "There's your coal !

Give me my book."

The Origin of Tithes.

^ HE first charter by which tithes were granted^ in England may be considered as a curious

historical document. The following is given as

a literal translation of it :—

" I, Ethel wolfe, by the grace of God, King of

the West Saxons, etc., with the advice of the

Bishops, Earls, and all persons of distinction in

my dominions, have, for the health of my sou),

the good of my people, and the prosperityof mykingdom, taken the honourable resolution of

granting the tenth part of the lands throughoutmy whole kingdom to the Church and ministers

of religion, to be enjoyed by them, with all the

privilege of a free tenure, and discharged fromall the encumbrances incident to lay-fees. Thisgrant has been made by us in honour of JesusChrist, the Blessed Virgin, and all_ Saints, andout of regard to the Pascal solemnity, and that

Almighty God might vouchsafe his blessings onus and our posterity. Dated at \yilton, Ann.Dom. 854, at the Feast of Easter."

A Japanese Editress.

The Japan Gazette^ published in Yokohama,was edited by a woman, who has been deposedthrough a change of proprietorship. In her

valedictory she says :

"It has been urged more than once that underthe present editorship it has been impossible for

our contemporaries to write freely ; but when werecall the fact that we have been termed a liar

and a virago, likened to a senseless creature whopokes the fire from the top, stigmati-^ed as anirate female, a female fibber, and alluded to

in a variety of other amicable _v/ays, we are

tempted to wonder to what limits journalistic

freedom aspires to soar." She then adds:—'

' / leave thee not with vain regret.

And it prattles, andlaughs, and smiles, andsleeps.

And the song in the roomlike a censer swings.

GAEDENING FOE THE MONTH.

Any anemone roots left over from the autumnshould nov\' be planted. In this waj' a successionof flowers is secured late in the season. DivideChinese chrysanthemums, and place them in

small pots, or into a border of rich soil, to potlater in the season. Pot scarlet lobelias, andplace them in a sunny window or a moderatehot-bed. At the end of the month the seeds ofhardy annuals may be put into the ground in

light soils. They should be sown in smallpatches, and covered with a little dry earth.

Transplant last yeai's layers of carnation'-, into

beds or large pots at the end of the month. SowCanada clover for bees. In the kitchen gardenthere is much to do this month. Sow lettuce andcarrot seed, and radishes later in the month.Plant potatoes in rows two feet apart, and ten

inches betv\'een the sets. Graft apples, pears,

cherries, and plums ; for this the middle of the

month is said to be the best time. Fruit-trees

and shrubs may be transplanted, but It should

have been done in November.jl

A Tale of Good Luck.

''Theri? v.-as a young man on a station In Soulli

Australia," s-ays a well-known writer, " who,three or four years hefore I heard the tale, wasreceiving 20s. a week and his ' tucker ' as aboundary-rider.

" He was playing euchre with a friend, who,after he had lost all his ready money, staked anoriginal share, which he had just purchased for

^100 or £.^'2o in a new silver mine, known as

Broken Hill Silver Mine. The boundary-rider won."A few months later he and another friend

went up to the mine to see how it Vi'as going on.

As they. were returning to Adelaide they caughta dangerous fever, and they were nursed by astranger.

" The friend died ; the successful euchre-

player recovered."When he was better he said to the stranger,

'You have rendered me the greatest service oneman can render to another, for you have savedmy life. You ought to have a share of my luck.

I will divide with you. Here's a cheque for

^15,GOD. My share in Broken Hill is worth^30,000.'

"I was telling this story at the table of a

friend of mine in London a few months after myreturn to England ; there was only one guest

besides myself, and he was a well-known stock-

broker from Melbourne."When I had finished lie said, ' Yes ; I know

the boundary-rider very well, and did business

for him. The story is quite true. He held his

share for a time, and sold out at an enormousprice ; but if he had held till now, he wouldhave been woi^th ^600,000.'

"

^'HITTIER mentions In one of his letters

that an aged clergyman said to him :

" Young man, when you are as old as I am, youwill imderstand that it is easier to be pious tb.an

it is to be good."Whittler himself, when old, said to a vculh,

"My lad,' if thou wouldst win succes', ioin thy-

self to some unpopular but nolile cau'-'.e."'

The Birds Have Come.

THE bi'r'ds have covie I The Oirds 1

come

!

God bless them, how they sing !

They fill the air with melody,And make the whole world ring

;

The blackbird and the robin.

And all the birds of spj'ing.

I hear them in. the bare tree-tops.

That stand so dtill and grey ;

I hear them sing in quips ajid chirps,

And inerry roundelay ;

A nd ifI longer listen,

They'll sing my heart away.

]Vhat though the sky he dark and chilly

And winds blcisjJierce and wild -,

We know thejlozvers will bloom a^aai] I liere often they have smiled.

For oh ! the birds are singingBrave songs ofspringtime mild.

And when we hear, hope buds anczv ;

IVc can no longer weep,T'or lo ! as in thefairy tale—

The birds the secret keep—A wakes again a princessWho erstwhile slumbered deep.

Success.

Let a man start with fixed

principles and with a de-

termination to win by the

practice of fairness to-

ward all, and he is boundto succeed. He needs to

look out for his business

and see that those underhim are as honourable in

every way. A man_ whodoes that will find friends

among both customersand fellow business men.

A True Lady.

A TRUE lady not only is

always at ease, no matterwith whom she is con-versing, but she contrivesalso to make her com-panion as much at easeas herself. Some people,quite unintentionallj',cause uncomfortablepauses in conversation,simply by the habit ofhearing in perfect silencea remark which is notactually a question. It is

not that they wish to ig-

nore it, but it does notoccur to them that a replyor comment is required,so the unfortunate uttererof the remark feels

snubbed, and ceases to

chat with the same ani-

mation as before. Onesimple rule to bear in

mind will go a great waytoward winning the repu-tation of being a pleasantcompanion. It is alwavsto show some interest in

whatever is said to you.Often the subject may beone in which you have notthe sliijhtest concern, butyou must show interest

all the same.

GAEDENIITG FOS THE MOlfTH.

The principal sowing of all the hardy annualsshould now be finished ; the sowing of the half-hardy should be completed by the end of themonth. Transplant hardy biennials, such asVv'allflowers, Brompton stocks, hollyhocks, etc.;if this was not done in autumn. Auriculas inbloom should be protected against sun and rain,but should be allowed as much air as possible.They must be watered regularlj^ and the use ofmanure water on alternate days will improve thebloom. The A\ater should never go on theleaves. One m.^y now jn.ike to advantage cut-

tuigs of verbenas, heliotropes, etc. Watch rose-trees and free them from grubs. Garden pests

caterpillars, bettles, red spiders, ants, etc.—arenow very active. Repot window plants, andthin them out if necessary. Rake beds smooth,turn up gravel walks, and clip box-edgings. Inashadyplaceinsert slips of sage, thyme, lavender,and other herbs, and sow mustard and cress undera south wall. In the fruit garden disbudding

that is to saj-, relieving the shoots of wall-treesof some of their buds just when they begin grow-ing—is now to be attended to.

PEASANT in

Galway was oneday standing at the door of his

cabin. He did not look particu-

larly well off, and an Englishtourist passing stopped to speakto him. As he did so he saw thechildren

inside the house playing with a pig. TheEnglishman was shocked. "My goodfellow," he said, "why have you that

pig in the house? It does not seem right , , _ . _

an' hasn't the house every accommodation that any raysonable pig would require?'

All Shout Together.

A GREAT part of the din that beats upon the air

of China comes of the raising and lowering ofmasts and- sails, for on all except the sea-goingcraft the masts are hinged, and are for ever beingpulled up or let down. To do this work theChinese crews are bunched together on eachdeck, where they shoivt with each output ofstrength. " Hee-tah, hee-tah, hoo-ah, hoo-ah,hee-tah !

" they chant, or grunt, whenever two, or

twentJ", or two hundred Chinamen work together at

anything. A common sight in the cities is to see

fifty of them pounding the earth for the founda-tion of a new building. Everj' man, upon a highscaffold, tugs at a rope, and all the ropes meet at

one big rock, that is lifted and dropped inces-

santly upon the ground to harden it. I say"every man," but there are always boys, andeven baby boys, at some of the ropes. All shouttogether, beginning at daj'break, when all workbegins, after which sleep can only be courtedwith chloroform. Whenever two men work at

anj'thing, thej' chant, whether it is at the work ofcarrj'ing a coffin in a fiureral or a bedstead outof a house.

W'.HEY say that the 7veather is lad—thnt.the^-- snowLies thick 071 the ^ron-dd, that the slaes are

But what do I care if the world's all anny,Eor witii lis the sun shines as we sit here alone,

For sJie is at work—a7id so am I.

They say that the world—thafs to say, -people

An excellent physiciansays :

" To strengthen thelungs nothing is so goodas to inhale long-drawnbreaths ofpure air throughthe nostrils many times adaj', expanding the lungsfully each time."

The Royal Scottish

Academy.

The engraving on the op-posite page represents the

building in Edinburgh in

which the annual exhibi-

tion of modern paintings

of the Royal Scottish

Academy takes place dur-ing the spring. The samepicturesquely situated

made to it by patriotic

"The White Feather."

A COWARD is said to

"show the M'hite fea-

ther," because gamecocksemployed in fighting

never have white fea-

thers. Should one appearit shows that the bird is

not of a pure breed.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Garden flowers now make a fine show. This is

the time for laburnums, honeysuckles, lilies, earlyroses, etc. Youne plants ofpelargoniums, fuchsias,

etc. , which will be required for autumnal windowplants, should now be moved into well-drainedpots and plunged into a border. Commence thegrafting and budding of roses. Take up thebulbs of tulips, hyacinths, etc., as soon as theleaves grow j^ellow. Keep them dry in paperbags till the season for planting comes roundagain. Some of the quick-flowering annuals

such as Virginia stocks—may still be sown, andthe more tender kinds which have been reared

in a hot-bed planted out. Cuttings of verbenas

and heliotropes now strike readily. Plentifully

water newlj'-planted seedlings and all hot-house

plants. Sow mustard and cress the same as last

month. Sow the last cropof long-pod beans and

peas for the season. Turnips are to be sown for

succession in the first week of the month, and for

a full autumn crop in the third week. Train the

summer shoots of all sorts of wall and trellis trees.

Net over cherry trees, to protect them frombirds. If plants are infested with worms, water

them with lime-v/ater as the surest means of

getting rid of them.

^(v'HE late JNIadame Patey, the popular song-'^^ stress, was delighting a large audience in

the Town Hall at Birmingham, when a workingman at the rear of the building was observed to

be in tears. There was nothing in the words of

the song to account for this display of feeling,

for the famed prima donna was singing in the

Italian tongue ; but the grief of the man becamemore pronounced and annoying ere MadamePatey had concluded.At length, amid a thunder of applause, the

singer retired, and the stranger was asked the

reason of his grief." She reminds me so of my darter !

'_' said the

tearful one. " She was in the singing line."

" But surely your daughter could not sing like

that ? " queried a man on the ne.xt sea^.

"No," answered the mom-ner, with another

sob ;" but you never could tell what she was

singin' about!"

Beside the Stile.

Stupidity Detected.

Dr. Delaunay, a well-known Paris scientist,

has made some curious observations which showthe connection between little things and great.

To ascertain the qualities of an applicant cook,he says it is sufficient to give her a plate to cleanor a sauce to make, and watch how she movesher hand in either act. If she moves it from left

to right, or in the direction of the hands of awatch, you may trust her ; if the other way, sheis certain to be stupid and incapable.

The intelligence of people may also be gauged,the doctor says, by asking them to make a circle

on paper with a pencil, and noting in what direc-

tion the hand is moved. The good studentsin amathematical class draw circles from left to right.

The inferiority of the softer sex, as well as of

the male dunces, is shown by their drawing fromriglit to left. Asylum patients do the same,

Death of Prince Henry

of Battenberg.

The unexpected death ofPrince Henry of Batten-berg changed the generalsatisfaction with whichthe nation received thenews of the successful andbloodless issue of theAshantee Expedition intomourning. He had caughtfever when in the dis-

charge of his duties, butwas reported as gettingbetter. A relapse, hov/-cver, set in, and on theevening of the 2c th ofJanuary, 1896, he diedquietly at sea. His frankand amiable character and

soldier-like bearinghad won for him a highdegree of popularity.At the tune of his deith

the_ cruiser on board ofv/hich he was, was notfar from Sierra Leone.His bod}' was broughthome, and arrived atPortsmouth on the morn-ing of tlie 4th of February.The same afternoon the

Royal Yacht Alberta, ar-

rived from Osborne withthe Princess Beatrice,Prince.ss Christian, thePrince of Wales, the Dukeof Connaught, and thePrinces Louis and FrancisJoseph of Battenberg,v/ho went on board thecruiser, where a servicewas held. After the Prin-

cesses had returned to theAlberta, the body wastransferred to the yachtand conveyed to Osborne.

Prince Henry of Batten-berg was the son of PrinceAlexander of Battenberg(Hesse), and was born onthe 5th of October, 185S.

He married PrincessBeatrice on the 23rd of

July, 1S85.

GARDENING JOB, THB MONTH.

The flowering of plants reaches its height this

month. Continue to take up bulbs as the foliagedecaj's, and place annuals or other plants in theplaces left vacant. In showery weather thin out.-innu.a.ls

; they will supply the plants wanted forfilling uji. Pipings of pinks and carnations maybe struck, and layers maj' be laid down about themiddle of the month. Bud roses. Cut downpelargoniums that have done blooming, and takewhat ciUtings are required : they will now strike

readily. Lettuce plants and plants recently sownmust be v/atered in dry weather. Peas andscarlet-runners now require sticking, .ind potatoesmust have the earth drawn round the roots.

Plant out broccoli and also celery. Roses, elder,

lavender, and other plants arc now gathered for

distilling. Propagate pot-herbs by slips andcuttings. Budding—of use in the case of manyfruit-trees, and the chief means of propagatingroses— is the princinal ooeration of the month.

^USTAVUS ADOLPHUS, Sweden's great

tj^ hero, commemorated one of his victories,

obtained in the year 1632, by a medal on whichwas struck the following chronogrammatical in-

scription :

ChrlstVs DVX; ergo TrIVMphVs.36424s 641 4

In this chronogram all the letters representing

tlie Roman numerals have been brought into use,

which, arranged in the order set forth by the

figures arranged beneath them, read as MDC=1600 ; WW or 4 X 5 = 20 ; X = 10 ; and II or

Wigs in the Olden Time.

Queen Elizabeth had no fewer than eightyattires of false hair.

It is probable, however, that in this respect shewas equalled, if not outdone, by her fair cousin,

the Queen of Scots. For Knoll5's UTites to

Cecil :" Mary Seaton, who is praised by the

Queen as the finest busker, that is to say, the

finest dresser, of a woman's head of hair that maybe seen in any country. . . . Yesterday andthis day did she set a curled hair upon the Queenthat was said to be a perewyke, that showed verj'

delicate."

Mary wore her periwigs to the last, and wasexecuted in an auburn peruke. During her life

she was so much addicted to changing the formand colour of her hair, that on this accountmany of her portraits are rendered difficult of

identification.

Towards the end of the reign of Charles 11.

wig-v/earing had become all but universal in

England. We find the custom constantly alludedto in the literature, the drama, and the art of the

period.

"mPAPPY is the man who ha'h sown in his

^^ breast the seeds of benevolence ; the pro-

duce thereof shall be charity and love.

From the fountain of his heart shall rise rivers

of goodness, and the streams shall overfiow for

the benef.t of mankind.He assisteth the poor in their trouble ; he

rejoiceth in furthering the prosperitj'- of .all nien.

He censureth not his neighbour ; he believeth

not the tales of envy and malevolence, neither

repeateth he their slanders.

He forgiveth the injuries of men—he v/ipeth

them from his remembrance ; revenge and malice

have no place in his heart.

The griefs and anxieties of men excite his com-passion ; he endeavoureth to alleviate the weight

of their misfortunes ; and the pleasure of success

rev.'ardeth his labours.

The Pass of Brander.

One of the most pic-

turesque Highland lochs

is Loch Awe, and one ofthe most remarkafjle fea-

tures in its neighbourhoodis the Pass of Brander.Through this pass thewaters of the loch find anoutlet by means of theRiver Awe, which dis-

charges into Loch Etive.

Its extreme narrownessmade it in days of old aplace of great strength,

and it was here that theClan RIacdougall of Lornwas almost destroyedby King Robert Bruce.Cairns, on the oppositesides of the stream, nearthe entrance of the pass

on the north, mark thescene of the conflict.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Examine bulbs that are out of the ground ; theymust not be allowed to become damp, for then

they will mould, and be of little value. Plants,

such as fuchsias, which are meant to bloom in

the windows in autumn, should be prevented fromflowering now. Take off the tops of chrysanthe-mums. All bands tied round buds and grafts

should now be loosened and removed when theyare no longer required. According to some, it is

better to pot auriculas now than in Maj'. Sowcinerarias, petunias, and calceolarias : if left to

the spring, these plants will not flower till the

following j-ear. Plant out biennial stocks in the

borders where they are intended to bloom. Pickoft' dead leaves and reduce stray growth. Sowlettuce to stand the winter, spinach, and cauli-

flower, and transfflant lettuces and every sort of

cabbage. Hoe and thin turnips. A few cole-

worts may still be planted. Caterpillars shoidd

be destroyed. Savoys and cabbages, which are

particularly subject to their attacks, should be

sprinkled v.-ith lime on dewy mornings.

Sorrow and Health.

The nervous system requires complete rest after

blows caused by sorrow. Recent medical obser-

vations show that the physical results of depress-ing emotions are similar to those caused bybodily accidents, fatigue, chill, partial starvation,

and loss of blood.

Grief cannot be ignored, neither can it becheered up. It must be accepted, and allowedto wear itcelf away. Readjustment comesslowly.

Sorrow, grief, and ail great misfortunes should

be regarded as conditions similar to acute infec-

tioiis diseases, which they resemble in result ; andlater, as convalescence from such diseases.

.Seclusion, rest, sleep, appropriate food, fresh

sir,, srmshine, interests that tax neither mind norbody, t4iese are requirements in this class of ill-

ness.

The care of the condition following depressingemotion calls for the same treatment in greateror less degree. The poison of grief is more thana name.To urge work, study, travel, the vain search

for amusement, is both useless and dangerous.For a time the whole organism is overthrown,and a temporary seclusion is imperative for properreadjustment.

After some bereavement the custom of wearingmourning has a distinct moral value. But its

period of use must be brief—a few weeks, months,perhaps a year—otherwise dense black draperiesbecome a burden, an sesthetic blunder, and asource of depression in themselves.

of blackbirds. I should say that there v/ere

10,000 in the flock. Slowly I crawled up towards

them, and when not more than four rods awaythe birds rose in a solid mass. I fired both

b.arrels, and how many do you think I killed?"

Different guesses were made by the party,

ranging from twenty to four hundred." Not one," said the stranger ; "but I went out

with my brother to look for results, and we picked

up four bushels of legs. I had shot a little under."

This was the last story told.

" Thou Didst Not Say Me Nay."

/ PRE.S.SED thy hand at J>arttni; iho7i didst

not say me nay

;

A smile so soft on dimpled cheek and rognisli

lip 'gan play,I dared to. kiss that tempting' cheek,

I dared those honeyed lips to seek ;

E'en now I scarce believe it true— tho7( didst not

I asked, might I retu?-n, Love '.—thou didst not

say me nay ;

And noiii I have no rest by night, 7tor have Ipeace by day.

The incidents connectedwith Dr. Jameson's in-

cursion into the Trans-vaal are so well known

8I

that to repeat them is

Ialmost stiperfluous. A

I

few cross shots were fired

after midnight on the

I

31st of December, 1S95,by Dr. Jameson's forceon the one side and the

j

Boers on the other. Thenj

Dr. Jameson's trooperslaagered for the night,"At daybreak," says

one of his men, " we wenton. We proceeded until

about 1 p.m., Vvhen wewere stopped by theBoers' artillery. We re-

turned the fire, andsilenced them in about anhour. The next firing

occurred in the afternoon,when a very heavy stormcame on, but still weclimbed the hill. , . ,

By that time both menand horses were much in

need of water. Fightingwent on all this time, andtowards evening, notic-

ing that the Boers meantto surround us, we formeda laager, placing waggonsoutside and horses inside.

The men then all placedthemselves outside thesquare some way in front

of the horses, shelteredby their saddles."_Dr. Jameson did not

give in until he saw thatthe men were so knockedup that fighting onlymeant that his force

would in the end be shotdown ; and seeing that nohelp was coming fromJohannesburg, he hoisted

a white shirt on a rifle asa flag of truce.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Dahlias and some hardy annuals are still in

flower. Place auriculas under shelter for thewinter at the end of the month : but they shouldstill ha%'e as much light and air as is consistentwith shielding thern from frost and heavj^ rain.

Take cactuses indoors, and give them very little

water, ]Make cuttings of China roses. Plantout pinks in the beds where they were meant to

flower. Thrift, daisy, or gentianella edgingsmay now be planted : the earth should be pressedfirmly round the roots by breaking it with theback of a spade. Dog's-tooth violets, narcissus,

crocus, snowdrop, and suchlike bulbs, if out ofthe ground, must now be planted. Earth upcelery, and plant lettuce in a sheltered border for

winter use. This is the best time for forming newbeds of horseradish. Plant endive. l,ift onionsand place them on a dry border or gravel walk.Keep down weeds which now grow apace.Hazel-nuts, acorns, blackberries, and elderberries,

are now ready for gathering. Cider and perryare now made. The temperature of the yeartakes a turn. Last month the mean temperaturewas 61° 28', this month it is 60° 14'.

JAa'.KSON's SUKRKNDEK at KRUGhRSDOKl'.

A Wise Teacher.

Rather : "Do yon think my daughter

^M will ever be able to sing ?"

Teacher: " Nevare, monsieur."

Father: "Then what's the use of giving her

an}' more vocal lessons ?"

'feacher: "A great deal of use, monsieur. I

give her lessons two-three months more, andiiy-and-by I teach her that she can't sing. Thatis very good musical education for a. young lad\'."

Fai/ier : "By gimini, you're right! If slie

can't sing, and you can convince her she can't,

the lessons won't be thrown away."

Cheap Hospitality.

A MISER, residing in a little town in Normandy,could not bring himself to return the civilities pfhis friends ; consequently, one fine day his naniewas dropped from the list of invitations.

To recover the loss of so many sumptuousrepasts, he woidd have to entertain his hosts in

his turn, and he did not relish that.

At last he was struck by a brilliant idea, andhe sent out his cards of invitation.

In the middle of the banquet, which was ona magnificent scale, horrible cries were heard,and our amphitryon ran out to ascertain thecause. Soon afterwards he returned, pale, ex-

cited, his hands covered with blood.' What has happened? " cried the guests.' A workman; tlie poor father of a family, has

been run over just opposite my door I

"

And v\'ithout saying another v.'ord, the miser,

obeying a generous impulse, snatched up a plate,

in which he placed a few louis, and, handing it

round, collected about six himdred francs, whichhe hastened to deliver to the interesting sufferer.

Next day the guests found that the accidentwas a myth, invented by the miser to recouphimself for the cost of his dinner.

Things Left Undone.

\!^ T isn't the thing you do, dea7',

O Ifs the thing you leave undone,Which gives you a bit ofheartacheAt the setting of the sun ;

The tender wordforgotten,The letteryou did not write,

The /iozver yott might have sent, dear,Are your hauntlr,g ghosts to-night.

The stone you might have liftedOut of the brother's way,

The bit of heartsotne cotmselYou were hurried too much to say.

The loving touch of the hand, dear,The gentle and winsome tone

7'hat you had no time nor thoughtfor.With trottbles enough ofyour own.

These little acts ofkindness.So easily out oj mind.

These chances to be an o els

Which even mortalsfind —They come in night and silence

Each mild reproachful wraith,When hope is faint andflagging,And a blight has dropped on faith.

For life is all too short, dear,And sorrow is all too great,

To suffer our slotu compassionThat tarries until too late.

And it's not the thingyou do, dea'-,

It's the thins you leave undone,Which gives yo7{ the bitter heariarkf,A t the setting of the sun.

There are Exceptions, However.

An Irishman asked a .Scotchman one day why arailroad engine was always called "she."Sandy replied :

" Perhaps it's on account ofthe horrible noise it makes when it tries to

whistle."

DUNVEGAN CASTLE.

How to Tell a Thief.

" I ALWAYS remember a man by lils eyes," said

Detective Sliman, an experienced officer. " If"

I once get a square look at a man's eyes I wouldrecognise him if I met him in Inverness. Theeyes never change ; the face is always changing.

A man with strongly marked features can de-

ceive the shrewdest detectives if the latter havenot made a study of the eyes.

"There are men whose faces are completelyaltered bj' shaving off a moustache. Even a

week's growth of beard and a change of clothing

will completely' disguise some men. There are

men who look like gentlemen when clean shaven,

and like tramps with a three days' stubble on

their faces.

"A change from a stiff to a soft hat completelyalters some, but if you have noted their eyes youcannot mistake them. Every trade and pro-

fession stamps its imprint upon the eyes. If youwill notice closely j'ou will see that the eyes of

the merchant differ from those of the lawyer, the

eyes of the day labourer from those of the skilled

mechanic.

HEN iroithle comes, doii t let despairAdd to the burden yoic must bear,

But keep 7/p heart, and, sinih}ig; say—" The darkest cloud must pass azvay,"

Don't say, " Why is it ?" ivith a/roivn.

And ffo with heart and head bowed doivn,

JJnt lift them both, and let your eyes

Behold the siinshine in the skies.

Don't sit and brood o'er things gone wro^-g,

Bid sing a hopeful, helpful song.

Or whistle something light and gay,And thus drive Jialfyo^ir cares a^vay.

Sing of tlie pleasant things life knows

;

Not of the thorns, but ofthe rose.

Each life knows someJoy e^'ery day,

Snre as December leads to I\Iay.

The man who sings tvhen trouble's Ji,ne,

Erom trouble has not much tofear ;

Since it will tiever tarry lottg

ll'he^i stont heart 7neets it 7vith. a song.

Bid brood o'er care, and we can maleTins life a hirdeji that will breakThe stoniest back. Bid sing, and lo !

The load is lifted. Let it go

!

Then don tJorget when things go wrongTo try the ma[;ic ofa song.

Ear cJieerful heart and smiling faceBring sunshine to the shadiest place.

Eben E. Rexford,

Jewish Marriages.

In Jewish marriages the woman is always placed

on the light of her mate. With every other

nation of the world her place in the ceremonyis on the left.

Assassination of

M. Stamboioff.

M. Stamboloff, the ex-Prime Minister of Bul-garia, has been truly de-scribed as the man aboveall others to whom thepresent position of thatcountry, its freedom andindependence, are due.At the time of his deathhe was about fortj'' yearsof age, and till hii fall in

June, 1894, he was re-

garded as one of the fore-

most statesmen in Europe,The autocratic and high-handed methods whichwere alleged against himmade him many enemies,and in the end broughtabout his assassination.

This event took placeill July, 1895. He methis death bj' the hands ofa band of assassins, whohad been v/atching their

opportunity. They fell

Uf>on him on the 15th ofthe month when he wasreturning to his housefrom a visit to a club.

The assassination wascharacterised by circum-stances of considerablebarbarity. He lost oneeye, and both of his handswere so cut about thatthey had to be amputatedimmediately afterwards.This, however, could notsave iiis life, as there werefatal wounds about thehead. He died on theiSthof July.His friends openly

charged the Governmentwith conniving at themurder, a charge whichPrince Ferdinand, whowas then at Karlsbad,repudiated with greatindignation.

GAEDENING FOR THE MONTH.

There may be flowers in the garden in this andthe following month. The common monthly roseana several varieties of laurestineare in blossom.Evergreen trees and shrubs are nov/ in greatbeauty. Take up dahlia roots carefully in fineweather and label them. Let the roots drygradually, and_ then lay them in a shallow box,cover them with sand, and house them in anydrj^ place where they are free from frost. Planttulips and hyacinths in beds as early as possiblein the month. Plant them three or four inchesdeep and six inches apart. Protect them from

heavy rains till the roots have taken firm holdof the soil. This can be done with fern leaves

or straw fastened down by willow rods. Plantdeciduous trees and shrubs whilst the weathercontinues favourable, and before the soil hasparted with the solar heat absorbed during sum-mer. Finish taking up potatoes, carrots, beets,

and parsnips. Take up early broccoli, endive,

late cauliflower, and lettuces, and lay them in anopen shed or in old melon pits, which will protect

them from frost and afford a supply duringwinter.

ASSASSINATION OF I\I. STAMBOLOFF.

Always Attractive.

" '^^ —

Tjji? ELL us," cried the group of maidens, _how

^^ to remain always young and attractive."" That is easy," repHed the sage, without even

lifting his eyes from his book. " Get a fortune

and Slay single."

How to be Strong.

Sandow, the "strong man," says that his first

golden rule is—if you want to be strong, do not

eat too much. Nothing shortens life and mini-

mises power as the almost universal habit of

taking too much food.

The only rule as to how much food should be

taken is that the system should be kept free fromhunger until the usual time for the next meal.

If you wisli to be strong, do not drink tea or

coffee, and when the stoiijach is empty take

nothing but distilled water."^

Another point is, never trj' to economise in

sleep. Sandow says he sleeps nuie hours andoften more. You should sleep in a warm bed-

room, and bathe almost as frequently as you eat.

At any rate, you should always have a cold bathmorning and evening.Sandow says he has not much faith in gym-

nastics as they are usually taught. His faith is

pinned to dumb-bells, and he does all his training

with them, supplemented with weight lifting.

If you wish to be strong, says Sandow, do not

overstrain yourself ; develop your muscles by the

easiest and lightest exercise. By a constant use

of dumb-bells any man of average strength can

bring his muscles to the highest possible develop-

ment.In exercising it is very important to stand cor-

rectly and to breathe properly'. The right v/ay

to breathe properly is to take long, full breaths,

and to expel the air slowly. If you breathe

properly, stand as you ought to do, get plenty of

pure air, sufficient, but not too much, wholesomefood, you will be sure to be healthy and strong.

Character Reading.

^g Y six qualities," says an old writer, " mayC!i— a fool be known : anger without cause,

speech without profit, change without motive,

inquiry without an object, putting trust in astranger, and wanting capacity to discriminate

between a friend and foe."

The Miser.

A HARD, clo^e man zvas Solomon Ray,Nothing ofvalue he gave away ;

He hoarded and saved.And he pinched and shaved,

A nd the tnore he got the more he craved.

The hard-earned shillings he toiled to gain,

Brought Mm little but care andpain ;

For Utile he spent.And all that he lent,

He }nade it bring him twenty per cent.

This luas the life ofSolofnon Ray,The years went by, and his hair grew grey ;

His cheeks grew thin,

A nd his heart ivithin

Grew ashardas the shillings he worked to win.

But he died one day, as all men must,For life isfleeting and man is dnst

:

And the heirs zvere gayThat laid hint away ;

And that was the end ofSolom.on Ray.

7 hey quarrelled now, who but little caiedFor Solomon Ray while his life was spared

;

His lands were sold

And his hard-earnedgoldA II went to tJie lawyers, I am. told.

Vet men willpinch, and cheat, a-nd save.

Nor carry their treasures beyo7id the grave ;

A II their gold some dayWill melt away.

Like the selfish savings ofSolomcr. Ray.

Assassination of the

Shah of Persia.

The Shah of Persia wasassassinated intheMosqueof Shah Abdul Azim, nearTeheran, on the ist of

May, 1896. His Majesty,accompanied bythe GrandVizier and several atter^d-

ants, shortly before twoo'clock in ' the afternoonwalked through the outercourt of the shiine of ShahAbdul Azim, where hegave a banknote to anArab and spoke kindly to

a water carrier. The en-

trance to the inner court

is closed by two chains,

and the Sliah had just

passed the first when theassassin, armed with arevolver, approached andfired. The Shah was im-mediately taken to his

carriage and conveyed to

the palace in Teheran,where he was attended byDr. Tholozan. His Ma-jesty expired shortly after

four o'clock.

This event removedfrom the political stage a

figure by no means un-

familiar to the people of

this country. His visits to

Europe had made himknown to many of us, andhis sudden and violent

end arrested attention to a

greater degree than if hehad remained in the semi-fabulous obscurity: that

normally envelopes far-off

Eastern potentates. It is

to be regretted -that byhis apparent sjmipathywith - Western ; civilisa-

tion the late Shah raised

hopes of social reformand commercial progress

in Persia which werenever justified. There is

indication, however, that

his successor will makeeffort in this direction.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

The work to be executed in the flower-garden is

much the same as last month. Tea-roses thatare in exposed situations should be taken up andplaced safely out of the reach of frost. Anyfuchsias that are to remain out all the wintershould have their roots covered with litter orcoal-ashes. In frosty weather sprinkle a little

light litter over any choice things in open beds.Make plantation of rhubarb), sea-kale, asparagus,and horseradish. Sow early peas andbeans on dryv/drm slopes. A delicate salad may b'e obtained in

five or six weeks by packing roots of dandelionin leaf- mould and putting them in gentle heat.

Dig round old fruit-trees. If any trees grow tooluxuriantly to bear well, root-prune th-em. Con-tinue, if necessary, to make new drains, to im-

prove water-courses, and to plant hedges. Turnup the ground thoroughly for exposure to thefrost and snov/. Inspect the fruit in the store-

room at frequent and regular intervals andremove whatever is found to be in a state ofdecay.

ASSASS-INATION OF THE SHAH OF PERSIA I BRINGING HOME THE BODY.

For All Who Wish to Marry.

"^ ELECT the girl. Agree with the girl's father-^ in politics and with her mother in religion.

If you have a rival, keep an eye on him ; if he is

a widower, keep two eyes on him.Do niit assure the girl that you have no bad

habits. It will be enough for you to s.ay that

you never heard yourself snore in your sleep.

.Do not put too much sweetstuff on paper. If

you do, you will hear it read in after years, whenyour wife has some especial purpose in inflicting

upon you the severest punishment known to a

married man.Go home at a reasonable hour in the evening.

Do not wait till the girl has to throw her wholesoul into a yawn that she cannot cover with both

hands. A little thing like that may cause a cool-

ness at the very beginning of the game.If you sit down on some molasses-candy that

little Willie has left on the chair while wearingyour new summer trousers for the first time, smile

sweetly, and remark that you do not mind sitting

on molasses-candy at all, and that " boys will beboys." Reserve your true feelings for future

reference.

If, on the occasion of your first call, the girl

upon whom you have placed your affections looks

like an iceberg, and acts like a quiet cold wave,take your leave early, and stay away.Do not be too soft. Do not say, " These little

hands .shall never do a stroke of work while theyare mine," and " You shall have nothing to do in

our home but to sit all day long and chirp to the

canaries "—as if any sensible woman could behappy fooling av/ay valuable time in that sort of

style ! And a girl has a fine retentive memory for

the soft things and silly promises of courtship,

and occasionally, in after years, when she is

washing the dinner-dishes or patching the worst

end of your trousers, she will remind you oi themin a cold sarcastic tone of voice.

Duelling.

^iJk'HE duel is a survival of the trial by ordeal.4-^ Rowland Yorke is supposed to have brought

it to England in 1587, but earlier than that it v/as

not unusual to see gLglove hung over the altar in

church, as a challenge to anyone who should take

it down.

The Looking-Giass.

THE world is a looking-glass

Wherein we look all day,

A nd each one sees reflected there

His own true image, foul orfair.Sullen, or sad, or gay;

Lit up with love or dark with hate.

Or cheered by heaven or soured by falc.

The sweet eyes meet an anszuering smile.

The gladfacefronts the sun ;

The mourner notlutig sees but shade,

And shivers, loiely and afraid ;

The guilty-hearted oneReads in the glass, without a doubt.

His sin detected andfound out.

The innocent child looks gaily in

Withfrank andfearless gaze,

A nd sees aface reflected there

Bright as his o%vn isfair ;

The old manfull ofdays,Peers ivith his 'titrd eyes and sees

But weariness and vanities.

The world is a looking-glass

Wherein ourselves are shown,Kindnessfor kifidness, cheerfor cheer.

ColdnessJor gloom, repulseforfear,To every soul its own ;

We caftnot change the world a whit,

Onl^ ourseliJes "vJkick look in- it.

A Guinea's Worth for a Penny.

Sir,— I have taken WORK from the

first, and not a week passes without myfinding something in it to my advantage.Although my business is one quite free

from mechanical tools, yet, by the assist-

ance of WORK, the use of such tools hasbecome part and parcel of my daily labour.

We hear of "encyclopaedias of useful in-

formation " which cost pounds, but here is

one which, though it cost only a penny, is

worth a guinea a number.School Teacher, Newcastle-on-Tyne.

A Penny a Week buys anIndependent Living.

Sib,—WORK has been to me a true

and useful instructor, and it is a real

pleasure to me to take it home everyweek. I would rather give up any other

paper than WORK. It is the grandestpaper for the industrious that was ever

printed. No industrious man need be outof work while he can purchase for a pennya week an independent living. I am very

F)roud to be a WORK reader, and have aiving and a trade which cost me a pennya week. p j. g l^ Gallais.
