W h i l e she lookedjt t thein I looked at her , and m y wonder grew as I gaied. Sho was a slender l i t t le creature, olive skiuuexl, and with, a g rea t mass of dusky ha i r ga thered iu to a bra id which hung below her waist . Her features were delicate and regular , her eyes large, hro\vn and full of the slumbering fires of unawakeued. womanhood; bu t her mouth was the feature tha t caugh t und riveted my at tent ion. I t was so unchildlike, so inexpressibly sad in" the pathetic "curved of tho small red lips.

"Does your Knight like pictures?" I asked, t rying to win a smile. The faint­est ghost of one crossed her face.

"Yes, he likes whatever I like," she answered. " K n i g h t knows as much as any of ns."

I re turned to m y sketching in some embarrassment . Had she been, indeed, the child I a t iirst supposed, to question her or amuse her would have been easy; b u t as i t was I could only awai t her pleasure. Presently she cams to my side.

"My mother used to say," sho said t imidly, " t h a t if I prayed to the Holy Mother Mary she would hear me and give me wha t I asked for. Do you th ink she will?"

" I hope so, wi th all my heart ," I an­swered, " h u t wha t do von wish for most of al l? '

"To make pictures, as you do." "You say your mother used to tell yon

so. Is she, then, no longer living?" "She is dead. She died years ago,

when I was a litt le girl , ba t I remember what she told mo. My father has an­other wife now. She has Mexican blood; she is cruel ."

"Not to you?"' I said doubtfully. "Yes, to me and everybody except

Knight. Sho is afraid of Knight ." " I am glad of tha t ." I replied: " b u t

surely she cannot h a r t you very much now. You are almos1 a woman and can defend yourself."

"She is largo and strong and cruel. She shakes me," went on the plaintive voice.

" B a t your father — surely if knew"

"Ho knows, but he loves her ." " H e loves you, too, I suppose?" " H e hates me ," she answered in

same sad, level voice, " a n d so I away when I can and stay nil day . "

"And when you go home?" "They beat me sometimes." In tho interest and sympathy awak­

ened by her confession I forgot my re­serve.

" W h a t i3 your name?" I asked. "Carol Cleaves."

"Cleaves!" I sprang to my feet in as­tonishment, for that was tho name of « notorious outlaw, whoso record was black with crime. And this lovely child, could it bo possiblo tha t she claimed such paternity?

Sho loa^cdLaL me wis t fu l ly^^!^ jy i l l go now," she said.

"Stay a moment ." I entreated, in per­plexity. W a j the re no way in which I could help her? 1 thought rapidly for a few moments. "Wi l l you come again," Ia3ked, "and let mo pain t a p ic ture of you and Knight?"

Her eyes answered me; such a look of glorified surprise came intoHhem. "Oh, will you? Can yon?"

" I can and will, if yon will cotno here a littlo while as often as convenient ."

•T shall havo to run away, bu t I will come."

"And if they aro angry and punish yon?"

" I shall not care, but thoy will never know where I am. If Mannella know sho would kill mo. Sho said sho would kill mo if I ever spoko to auy m a n . "

"Sho shall not harm you," I boldly promised.

"Do you go out a-ioue as onon as you^wish?''

"Yes; only when they have men a t tho house and wAnt mo to help ."

"VoTy well, then. Come every dAy, if you can, and I will seo if there is not porno way that 1 can help yon."

She laid her littlo hand on tho head, of her dog and they went nway, tho noble creature t rot t ing by her sido with a wiso and protecting air tha t was almost hu­man - or, shall wo not ra ther say, if wo reflect a littlo. superhuman?

and his cart horse. See 'em there in the corner?"

"Look at these little heads, and under 'em it says, 'Seraphln Bulle. ' "

"Yes, them's the bully seraphim—them stono things they put on monuyments ."

"And here's a great big wine store with men or somethln in it, and it has a sign of 'Lea Sept Frerea' " (the seven brothers).

"That —well, lemrae see i t — oh, yes; them's tho twelve apostles."

"But, papa, they aren' t bu t seven of 'em."

"Oh, yes—well—ah—er^—um—that cuU no figure. The other rive's gone inside to take a dr ink."

The foregoing (alleged) conversation not only serves to amuse the Americans In Paris, bu t illustrates the difficulty persona In middle life experience in grappling wi th the language I learned it young and then forgot most of It; now tha t I am resurrect­ing it I noto a hundred absurdities I never thought of In my school days. Wha t , for instance, could be more absurd t h a n the so called "grammatical gonder," in which there Is no neuter and all sexless . things are divided between male and female?

My pen Is feminine, but the wooden pen­holder Is masculine; the knife masculine,, the fork feminine; the paper and Ink mas­culine, and so on all around the table, that being feminine. And as far as I can see there is nothing a t all in the way of natural analogy to guide the learner. What blunders we Americans must make! And if the Parisians were not the most delightful hypocrites in the world how they would laugh a t us. Bu t they don't; even over tho worst blunders their smiling comment Is, "Tres bien, monsieur; tres bion; vous avez la vraie Parisienno," etc., e t c I t ' s all a lie, and I know It; bu t then it sounds nice. True it is that the sun is he and the moon she; a ship, a nation or a fine work of ar t (generally) is she, and a few more things seem a trifle reasonable, for we use them the same way; bu t In the line of pronunciation what do you think of this:

"Qu'cst-ce qu'est celaf" That ' s pro­nounced "Keskyslah" (meaning, " W h a t Is that?"), and a new roan in Paris has to use it about a hundred times a day. Now, I have had a very strange mental experience. In the telling it doss not amount to much, hut I feel that if I could give tho exact ex­periences to some professed student of psy­chology ho could make much out of it —perhaps prove the assertion, often made and oftcner denied, that we nover really forget; that the only difference between a

. man .with_a ttDOtLnaeraorx .ft W<1 -QP-e^jsyJllu^ bad one is that the former has a certain sensitiveness in the brain fiber which makes any suggestion call up tho related facts lying away back in the lumber room of memory.

When I began to pick up French phrases here and there I had not the slightest recollection of ever having heard most of them. All a t once, however, on the sec­ond day, old recollections began to pop up from tho most unexpected places In the obscure background of consciousness. It seemed as if somo great screen had actu­ally been pulled away from a private room in the brain, a room I had total \y,t Of gi t-ten that I owned, and that ontrof It, singly, at first and then In great troops, came old sentences, and with them a perfect recol­lection of the.clrcumstAnces under which 1 hnd first mastered thorn. I recalled th« vtry day on which we had recited the par­ticular sentences in class thirty years ago, and later tho occasions on whloh I hnd put tho sentences to use, and It was really wonderful to notice how the old phrasea nnd odd Idloiruj marched forward and fall into their proper place*, like well drilled soldiers. It was a very curious experl-rienco, hut I fear tho philosophy of It would lie tedious. *

Paris Is always gay In tho summer, and the Americans, of whom aeveral thousand aro then there, aro the gayest of all. Thew Is an Impression among those who servo— strong In England And much .atronger In France—that every American who comes over hAs his clothes Just padded with money, and Is burning with anxiety to spend It; and I must say that most Ameri­cans aid tho illusion. It 's all very well, perhaps, for them to scAtter their own money as freely as they plenae, but they dentornlire the market, for their coun­trymen who A:M not so well "heeled." For Instance, the regular cab fare "within

bounds" Is a frano and a half (a fraction loss than thirty cents), with a "pourbotro" lo tho driver of thrro or four cent«,nnd F.n gllshmfn pay that and no more. Bnt the ostentatious American generally tosses the driver a flvo franc piece nnd does not stop for change; nnd to the American who can­not par so recklessly Is scowled upon.

Much Is said of thochenpnoM with which one can live In the quiet parta of Paris, and ona can live At little co*t*lf he Is ex­tremely oArefnl of the "extra*." But there la where the trouble conies In—one never really know* how much ho I* contracting for. The rharftea.at the hotel may he printed «v»r so eon«plcnou«ly In his room, but when he lei.vea the porter must have at lov.t half n frann for one nlght'a lodg Ing, and two or three others half a franc a plecrt. There Is a charge for candles and sometime* for matches, and If n single glass of wine Is taken, the bill contain* A charge for n bottle If one does not. stud j the hill of fare very carefully he Is likely to order something which Is marked "ex­tra"—and so It goea all around.

t paid three franca a day for a largo and very nice room np two palra of stalra; A llfrht break fast, of bread, butler and coffe*, with two eggs, cost nie A franc and a half] and for my "secorid breakfAAt," a* they call It, and my dinner from two franc* up. c>> one can live very well indeed for twelve franca a day in Paris, but ,ah! those terrible "extras." One Is laying hlm*elf liable every minute without knowing It unless he Is on guard. Pour bolre literally mean* "For to dr ink," apd If t>j

nibbles, porters, "etc., "rvally"drink to the value of tho pour boiees they receive iu a day they must go to bed In a thoroughly demoralised condition.

And this leads me ou to speak of work and wages, about which I have fouud it dillicult lo get exact facts; (or iu Franc* tw in England there M> many qualifying cir­cumstances and the usual extras. I tlud, however, tha t w common laborer thinks himself fairly well paid at three franc* a day, and a chambermaid at ten francs a week—both beiug, perhaps, "A) per e«ut. below London wages. The stone and brick masoua receive six to eight francs a day, and the attendant boys, who appear to be ou the jump from moruing till ulght,

la. franc and a half. I had the pleasure oue day of speudlug some hours iu the Im­mense establishment of Kevillon Brothers, which Is, I am told, the largest fur dress­ing and tr imming establishment in Europe —a statement I could well believe when I saw tho two enormous warehouses packed with valuable furs. Iu one suite of rooms, hanging so thickly that one could barely squeeze through the narrow passages, were many thousand sealskin cloaks, astra-khaus and still finer coverings, the value being put by the clerk at 1.000,000 franca (about $300,000.)

In this establishment the lowest wages were paid, of course, to the girls, the plain stitchers receiving two francs a day, and the highest, twelve franca a day, to the skilled trimmers and dressers. Taste sells well in France. Auy one with special skill in colors is sure of a good salary. It Is both amusing aud pleasing to observe how this artistio sense in the people breaks out In most unexpected places—In the arrunge-

' ment of vegetables and meat In the mar­kets, In the way the billets of wood are stacked in the littlo fuel stores, in the cute little flower pots lu all the odd corners, and even in the few cuspidors in public re­sorts, the fine white sand In them being heaped In a little^pyramid or imprinted with the form of a flower.

Despite their low wages the laboring people present a very gay and animated appearance on holidays (including Sun­days), aud this was especially uoticeableon a recent review day. Early tha t morning the schoolboys in uniform were paraded and reviewed iu front .of the Hotel de VUle. I found it impossible to get within a hundred yards of a view of the main pa­rade. The papers say that 60,000 well drilled troops -wero reviewed tha t after noon—in the plain a few miles below the city—but 1 doubt it.

l a m sure I have seen much finer work done by our state militia and G. A. R. vet­erans a t more than one "reunion." I saw the president, or the man that they said was he. I "saw" his address, as I did that of President Grant at our centennial's opening—that is, I looked over about forty acres of people, and saw a man moving his head and arms as if he meant something. But all the rest of the show was Indeed en­livening—tho long,long festoons of brilliant lights on the Champs Elysees; the illum­inated fountains, the revolving lights and showers of pyrotechnics in the Bols do Boulogne, tho white blaze from all the towers and thfa tens of thousands of people parading the well lighted streets, laugh­ing, drinking wlne'and singing the national songs. Even a newly arrived American could share in the popular enthusiasm.

In 1883 Mary Anno's owner made the batter test which has become historic. Tho magnificent littlo Jersey gave him in one week 24 pounds and 18 ounces of butter, as weighed ufter it was salted. In 31 days sho made 10(5 pounds and 12.5 onnces of butter. She gave a pound of batter from 11 pounds of milk.

Not many cows havo touched this rec­ord. Some have claimed to surpass it, but the well authenticated cases are very few. Ono Jersey, owned in Maryland, Value II, is reported in The Breeders' Gazette of July 5, 1883, to have pro­duced 25 pounds 2 and 11-12 ounces in a week from 337 pounds of milk.

Black leg is due to a specific infections bacter ium, -which exists part icularly in lowland j , and when in the body of young ^̂ 7 , , , cat t le g rows principally in the tissue^be-" (JuJWtctWGtv

tween the skin and flesh, causing bloody dark gaseous tumors . Its progress is very rapid. "The proprietor is surprised one morning to find among his herd of cattle his beet fatted calf or yearling or two-year-old dead. The body is already swelled to enormous proportions, and there m m a no clew to the cause of such rapid destruct ion."

Other animals may indicate tho "pres­ence of tho disease by lAtnenoss, soon to be followed by swelling and death, for most caeca prove fatal,, and medicinal treatroetit is scarcely practicable. Pre­ventive measures aro the only ones of importance therefore. The French in­vestigations and others have' demon­st ra ted the possibility and practicabil i ty of inoculation for the black leg from cat t le to catt le, then to sheep, and in the same way i t cAn be introduced into the rabbi t . Upon the outbreak of bl»ck leg remove all tho healthy animals, and thee* only to_a distanco, and inoculate each subject twice a t six or eight days ' interval . Tho process is described.

N E W Yonx, March 15.—Tli« series of ser-uious Dr. Talmai;e is preaching in this city nuil Brooklyn on "The P i q u e s of tha Cities" la attractint; (j*'1"-'"'! titlwition. At the morning service in Brooklyn unci »t tho evening services held under the auspices of Tbe Christian flernld.in this city, the number of persons who como to hear the sermons is far larger than either of the bulltllnjjs can accoiomodnte. Tiie sermon to-tlay, which is the fourth of the series, is on "Baleful Amusements." The text WRS 11 Samuel, ii, 14: "lyjt the young men now arise and play before us ."

There are two armies encamped by tho pool of Gilwou. The time haups heavily ou their hands. Ouoai 'ny proposes asmuo of sword fenciug. Nothing could be utoro healthful una innocent. Tho other army accepts tho challenge. Twolvo Uten against twelve men, tho sport opens. But some­thing went adversely. Perhaps ono of the swordsmen got un unlucky clip, or iusonio way had his ire aroused, and that which opened in sporttulness ended iu violence, each one takiug his contestant by the hair, and then with tho sword thrusting him in the side, so that that which opened iu in­nocent fun ended in tho massacre of nil the twenty-four sportsmen. Was there ever a better illustration of what wies true then, nnd is true uow, that that which is inno­cent may he made destructive?

What of n worldly nature is more im­portant aud strengthening and innocent than amusement, and yet what has count­ed more victims? I have no sympathy with a straitjacket religion. This is a very bright world to me, and I propose to do all I can to make it bright for others. YOUTH'S BFORT1VEXKSS SHOULD SOT BE SUP­

PRESSED. I never could keep stop to a dead march.

A book years ago Issued says that a Chris­tian man has a right Co some amusements. For Instance, if lie comes home at night weary from his work, and feeling In need of recreation, puts on his slippers, aud goes into his garret and walks lively round the floor several times there can be no harm in it. 1 bclievo the church of God has inado a tremendous mistake in trying to suppress tho sport 'ulness of youth and drive out from men their love of amusement. If God ever implanted anything in us ho implanted this desire.

But instead of providing for this demand of our nature, the church of God has, for the main part, ignored it. As iu a riot, the mayor plants a battery at the end of the street, and has it lircd off so that every­thing is cut down tha t happens-to stand in tho range, tho good as well as the bad, so there are men in the church who plant their batteries of condemnation and fire away Indiscriminately. Everything is con­demned. But my bible commends those who use the world without abusing it, and in tho natural world God has done every­thing to please and amuso us. In poetio figure we sometivies speak of natural ob­jects as being lu pain, but it is a mere fancy. Poets say the clouds weep, but they uever yet shed a tear; and the winds sigh, but they never did have any trouble; aud that the storm howls, but i t never lost its temper. The world is a rose, aud the universe a garland.

And I am glad to know tha t in all our cities there are plenty of places where we may find elevated, moral entertainment. Bnt all honest mon aud good women will agree with me in the statement that ono of the worst plagues of these cities is corrupt amusement. Multitudes have gone down under tho blasting influenco never to'rise. If wo may judge of what is going on in many of tho places of amusement by the Sodomio pictures on board fences and iu many of the show windows there is not a much lower depth of proflgacy to reach. At Xaplea, Italy, they keep such pictures locked up from indiscriminate Inspection. Those pictures were exhumed from Pom­peii and are not fit for public gaze. If the effrontery of bad places of amusement in hanging out improper advertisements of what they are doing night by night grows worse in the same proportion, in fifty years New York and Brooklyn will beat not only Pompeii, but Sodom.

To help stay the plague now raging I project certain principles by which you may judgo in regard to any amusement or ,..»/,.-An.intt (Inrtlt,tr ant (nr vnilrflM f wtift t l

recreation, llndlngoat {oryourscK whether It ts right or whether It is wrong.

llY ITS VRUITS KXOW IT. I remark iu the first place that you can

judgo of the moral character of any amuse­ment by its healthful result or by its bale­ful reaction. There aro people who seem made up of hnrd facts. They are a com­bination of multiplication tables and ata­c t i c s . If you show them an exquisite picture they will begin to discuss the pig­ments involved in the coloring. If you show them a beautiful rose they will sub­mit it to a botanical analysis, which is only tho post-mortem exam! nutiou of a flower. They havo no rebound In their nature. They never-do anything more than smile. There are no great tides of feeling.surging -upJjojnJiUQjiejjtlis_o{ their soul in billow after billow of reverberating iaughTer"." They seem as if nature had built them by contract and made a bungling job~of it.

But, blessed 1)0 God, there are peoplo in tho world who have bright faces, and whoso llfo is a song, an anthem, a prean of of victory. Even their troubles aro like tho vines that crawl up the siilo of a great tower, on the top of which the sunlight sits, nnd thesoft airs of summer hold per­petual carnival. They are tho people you liko to havo como to your house; they are tho people I liko tf> havo como to my house. If you but touch the hem of their gar-monts you are healed.

Now it is these oxhilarant nnd sympa­thetic and warm hearted people that are most tempted to pernicious amusements. In proportion as a ship is swift it wants a atrong helmsman; in proportion as a horse is gay, it wants a stout driver; and these-peoplo of exuberant nature will do well to look. At the reaction of all their amuse­ments. If an amusement sends you homo at nigfit nervous so that you cannot sleep, and you riso up In tho morning, not lie-cause you aro slept out, but because your duty drags you' from your slumbers, you have been where you ought not to havo been. There are amusements tha t send'a man next day to his work bloodshot, yawn­ing, stupid,nauseated; and they are wrong kinds of amusement. They are entertain­ments that givo a man disgust with the drudgery of life, with tools Ijecauso they aro.not swords, with working apions be-catiso thoy aro not robes, with cattlo be­cause they arc not Infuriated bulls of the arena.

If any amusement sends you homo long­ing for a life of romance ami thrilling ad- | venture, lovo that takes poison and shoots | Itself, moonlight adventures and hair-breAUtli escapes, you may depend upon It that yon aro tho sacrificed victim of un-sanctified pleasure. Our recreations are Intended to build up, nnd if tho} pull us down as to our moral or ns to our physiral strength you may como to tho conclusion that thoy arc obnoxious

There Is nothing moro depraving than attendnncc upon amusements that are full of Innuendo and lc*.vfttif£{«ft'.loii. Tlioyoiuig mnn enters. At llr«t he sits far biek, with his list on and hla coat cellar up, fearful that oomchody thore may know him. Sev­eral nights pass on. Ho t ikes off lii« bat earlier nnd puis his co:it collar down.. The blush that first came Into his chock when anything Indecent was enacted romes no nioi-o to his chook. Knrewgll, young mant Yon havo probably started on the long rn:\d which ends in eiiwmiim.ite 'dostruction. Tho stars of bono will go out ono by ono, until you will bo loft In ullor darkness. Hear you not the rushof the maelstrom, In whoso outer circle your Invit uow dunces, making merry with tho whirling waters? Hut yon aro being drawn In, nnd tho gen­tle motion will lieoomo terrific agitation. Yott cry for help. In vain! Yon pull at the oat to put back, bu t the struggle will riot avail! Yon will l>e tossed And dashed and shipwrecked nnd swallowed In tho whirlpool that,lias nlroady crushed 111 Its wrsth (*•!» thousand hulks.

Stiil further. (Those arausemuuts are wrong which lead you iuto expenditure be­yond your means. Mouuy spent in recrea­tion is not thrown away. It is all folly for us to come from a place of amusement feel-itiK that we have wasted our ivmi'y and time. You may by it havo made au iu-v est ment worth more t h a n the transaction that yielded you hundreds or thousand/I of dollars, littt how many properties h.iv» lx.»en riddled by cosily amusements.

The iirst time I ever saw the city—it was ;he city of Pliiludelplii i—I w;is a mere lad. I .stoppod at a hotel, aud 1 remember iu the jvoutide one of these men piled me with his infernal art. He saw I was greeu. He wanted to show mo the sights of the town. Ho painted the path of sin until it looked liko emerald; but I was afraid of him. I shoved back from ' the basilisk—I made up my mind he was a basilisk. I remember how ho wheeled bis chair round iu front of me, and with a concentrated aud diabolical effort attempted to destroy my soul; but there were good angels iu the air that night. It was no good resolution ou my pnft, but it was the all encompassing grace of a good God that delivered me. Bewarel beware! oh, youug man. "There is a way tha t seei:i"th right uutou man, bu t theeud thereof is death."

The table has been robbed to pay the club. Tho champagno has cheated the children's wardrobe. The carousiug party has burned up tha boy's primer. The tablecloth of the corner saloou Is iu debt to the wife's faded dress. Excursions that iu a day make a tour around a whole month's wages; ladies whose lifetime business it is to "go shopping;" large bets on horses have their couuterparts in uneducated children, bankruptcies that shock the money market nnd appal the church, and tha( seud drunkenness btagnering across the richly figured carpet of tho mansion and dashing into tho mirror and drowning out the carol of music with tho whooping of bloated sons come homo to break their old mother's heart.

A SAD STORY. I saw a beautiful home, where the bell

rang violently late at night. Tbo sou had been off in sinful indulgences. His com­rades were bringing him home. They car­ried him to tho door. They rang tho bell at 1 o'clock In the morning. Father and mother came down. They wero waitiug for tho wandering son, aud theu the com­rades, as soon as tho door was opened, threw the prodigal headlong into tho door­way, crying: "There he is, drunk as a fool! Ha, ha!" When men go into amusements thoy cannot afford they first borrow what they cannot earn, and then they steal what they canuotborrow. First they go Into em­barrassment, and then into lying, and then into theft; and when a man gets as far on as that he does not stop short of tho peni­tentiary. There is not a prison in tho land where there aro uot victims of unsanctilled amusements.

Merchant of Brooklyn or New York, is there a disarrangement lu your accounts? Is their a leakage in your money drawer? Did no t ' t he cash account come out right last night? I will tell you. There ls a young man in your storo wandering off Into bad amusements. The salary you give him may meet lawful expenditures, but not the sinful indulgences in which he has entered, and he takes by theft that which you do not givo him in lawful salary. *

How brightly the path of unrestrained amusement opens. Tho young man says: "Now I am oft for a good time. Never mind economy. I'll get money somehow. What a fine road! What a beautiful day for a ride! Crack the whip, and over the turnpike! 'Come, boys, fill v high your glasses.' Drink! Long life, health, plenty of rides just like this!" Hard working men hear the clatter of the hoofs and look up and say: "Why, I wonder where those fellows get their money from! We have to toil and drudge. They do nothing." To theso gay men life is a thrill and an excito ment. They staro at other people, and in turn are stared at. Tho watch chain jingles. The cup foams. Tho cheeks flush. The eyes flash. The midnight hears their guffaw. They swagger. They jostle decent men off the sidewalk. They take tho name of God in vain. They parody the hymu they learned at their mother's knee; and to all pictures of coming disaster they cry out, "Who cares!" and to the counsel of some Christian friend, "Who aro yon?"

Passing along the street some night you hear a shriek in a grog shop, the rattle of the watchman's club, the rush of- tho po­lice. What is the matter now? Oh, this reckless young man has been killed in a grog shop fight. Carry him home to his father's house. Parents will come down and wash his wounds and close his eyes in death. They forgive him nil he ever did, although he cannot in his silence ask it. The prodigal has got home at last. Mother will go to her littlo garden and get the sweetest flowers, and twist them into a chaplet for the silent heart of the wayward boy, nnd push Iwck from the bloated brow the long locks that were once ht:r pride. And the air will bo rent with the agony. The great dramatist says, "How sharper than a serpent's tc-'^th it is to have a thank­less child."

LIFE AN EARNEST TITIXG. I go further, and say those are unchris­

tian amusements which become the chief business of a man's life. Life is an earnest thing. Whether we were born in a pal­ace or hovel, whether we are affluent or

-pinohwVwa4iaveJjiuvnrk__If.^Uu-da_nQL sweat with toil, you will sweat with dis­ease. You have a soul that is to be trans­figured amid tho pomp of a judgment

day; and alter tho sea nss sung i u last chant and tho mountain shall have como down In an avalanche of a rock, you will live and think nnd act, high on a throne where seraphs sing, or deep in a dungeon where demons howl. In a world where there is so much to do for yourselves, and so much to do for others, God pity that man who has nothing to do.

Your sports are inoYely means to an end. They aro alleviations and helps. The arm of toil is the only arm Btrong enough to bring up the bucket out of the deep well of pleasure Amusement Is only the bower wherein- i'ness and philanthropy rest while on theit way to stirring achievements. Amnsernontsnro merely the vinesthat grow-about the anvil of toil and tho blossomingtif the hammers. Alas for tho man who spends his life In laboriously doing nothing, his days in hunting up lounging places and loungers, ins nights In seeking out somo gas lighted foolery! Tho man who always has on his sporting jncket, ready to hunt for game In tho mountain or fish In the brook, with no timo to pray or work or read, is not so well off ns tho greyhound that runs by his side, or the fly bait with which he whips tho stream.

A man whodoas not work does not know how to play. If God had intended us to ()o nothing but. laugh ho would not have given US shoulders with whlch'to lift, and hands with which to work, and brains with which to think. The nmusl-nients of lifo j are merely t!«> orchestra pi.tying while tho great tragedy of lif > plunges through Its five acts infancy, childhood, manhood, old age and death. Then exit the. last earthly opportunity. Kntcr the overwhelming real- \ Hies of an eternal worldl

I go further, nnd sny that all those Amusements arc wrong which lead Into; bid company. If you go to any plnca whom you hftvaj to associate with tho In-tcmpCTHto, with tho unclean, with tho abandoned, however well thoy may l>o dressed, in tho name of God quit It, Thoy will despoil your nature. Thoy will un­dermine your moral character. They will drop yon when you aro destroyed. Thoy will give not one cent to support, your chil­dren when you are dead. They will weop not ono tear nt yonr burial. Thoy will chuckle over your damnation.

I had n friend nt the west—n rnro friend. Ho was one of tho first to welcome me to my new home. To fine personal npi>onr-nnco ho added n generoslly, frankness nnd ardor of nature that mftdn mo lovo him like a brother. But I sawevll people gath­ering around him. They came up from tho anloous, from tho gambling holla Thoy piled him with ft thousand ftrt*. They sei*od upon his social nntnre, nnd he could not stand Hie charm. They drovo him on tho r.>oks, like n ship full winged, shhering on tho bro.ikers. 1 used lo ad­monish him. I wo il 1 say, "Now I wish yon would quit thvio bid habits nnd be­come ft Christian." "Oh ," he would reply, "I would liko to, 1 would like to, but I

he would go home and take his little girl of S yeans, anij embrace her convulsively, i aud cover her with adornments, and strew around her pictures and toys and ever)-1 thing that could make her happy; and then, as though hounded by au evil spirit, he would go out to tbe eniiaming cup aud the house of shame, like « fool to the cor­rection of tho stocks.

A DEATilUEll 8CKKK. I was aumuioued to his deathbed. 1

hastened. I entered the room. I fouud him, to illy surprise, lying iufull everyday-dress ou the top of the epuch. I put out my hand. H e ' g r a s p e d ' i t excitedly aud said, "Sitdown, Mr. Tultnage, r igh t thew." I sat down. Ho said: "Last night I saw my mother, who has beeu dead twenty years, and she sat just where you sit uow. I t was no dream. I was wide awake. There was no delusion iu tbo matter. I saw her just as plainly as I see you. Wife I wish you would take these strings off of me. There ore strings spun all around my body. 1 wish you would take them off of me." I saw it was delirium.

"Oh," replied his wife, "my dear, there iauothlug there, there is nothing there." He went on, and said: " Jus t where you sit, Mr. Taluiage, my mother sat. She said to me, 'Henry, I do wish you would do bet­ter.' I got out of bed, put my arms around her, and said: 'Mother, I want to do bet­ter. I have been trying to do better. Won ' t you help me to do better? You used to help me.' No mistake about it, no delusion. I saw her—tWj cap, aud the apron, and the spectacles, just as sho used to look twenty years ago; but I do wish you would take tbeso strings away. They annoy mo so. I can hardly talk. Won ' t you take them away?" I knelt dowu and prayed, conscious of the fact that he did not realize what I was saying. I got up. 1 said, "Good-by; I hope you will be better soou." He said, "Good-by, good-by."

That night his soul went to the God who gave it. Arrangements were made for the obsequies. Some said, "Don't briug him iu the church: ho was too dissolute." "Oh," I said, "bring him. He was a good friend of mine while he was alive, and I shall stand by him uow that he is dead. Bring him to tho church."

LAST SCENE OF ALL. As I sat in the pulpit and saw his body

coming tip through the aisle I felt as if I could weep tears of blood. I told the peo­ple that day: "This man had his virtues, and a good many of them. He had his faults, and a good many of them, but if there is any man in this audience who is •without sin let biru cast tho first stone at this coffin lid," On ono side the pulpit sat that little child, rosy, sweet faced, as beau­tiful as any little child that sat a t your table this morning, I warrant you. She looked up wistfully, not knowing the full sorrows of an orphan child. Oh, her coun­tenance haunts me today like somo sweet face looking upon us through a horrid dream. Ou the other side of the pulpit were the men who had destroyed him. There they sat, hard visaged, some of them pale from exhausting disease, some of them flushed until it seemed as if the fires of iniquity flamed through tbo cheek3 aud crackled the lips. They wero the men who had done tho work. They were tho men who had bound him hand and foot. They had kindle.d th3 Ores. They had poured the wormwood and gall into that orphau's cup. Did they weep? No. Did they sigh re-pentingly? No. Did thoy say, "What a pity that such a brave man should be slain?" No, no; not one bloated hand was lifted to wipe a tear from a bloated cheek. They sat and looked at the coffin like vul­tures gazing a t the carcass of a lamb whose heart they had-ripped out! I.cried in their ears as plainly as I could, "There is a God a n d a judgment day I" Did they tremble? Oh, no, no. They went back from the house of God, and that night, though their victim lay in Oakwood cemetery, I was told that they blasphemed, and they drank, \nd they gambled, and there was not one I:ss customer in all the houses of iniquity. Lhis destroyed man was a Samson in phys­ical strength, but Delilah sheared him, and the Philistines of evil companionship dug his eyes out an 1 threw him into the prison of evil habits. Butiu the hour of his death he rose up and took hold of the two pil­lared cursts of God against drunkenness and unclean ':ess, and tlirew himself tor-ward, until d iwn upon him and his com-, panions theve came the thunders of an eternal cr.tas.rophe.

Again, any amusemont that gives you a distaste for domesti-j lifo is bad. How many bright domestic circles have been broken up by sinful amusements! The father went off, the mother went off, the child weut off.. There -.'.ro today the frag­ments before me of blasted households. Oh, if you have wandered away, I would like to charm you back by the sound of tha t one word, "borne." Do you not know that you have but little more time to give to do­mestic welfare? Do you not see, father, that your children nre soon to go out into the world, and all the influenco for good you are to have over them you must have now? Death will break in on your conju­gal relations, aud alas! if you have to stand over the grave of ono who perished from your neglect!

AT HIS WITI'.'S DEATHBED. I saw a wayward husband standjng a t

the deathbed of his Christian wife, and I saw her point to a ring on her finger and heard her say to her husband, "Do you see that r ing?" He replied, "Yes, I see it ." —\V«ll/-1-^aid_&hD,J:im_yi)u_ri;miyjlher_\vho put i t there?" "Yes," said be, "1 puTTf there," and all the past seemed to rush upon him. l)y the memory of that day when, in tho presence of men aud angels,

Teua uf Thousands of Pei-ole Seeking Humes lu V»r Off Bejjloui.

The rush to the uew laud3 that are uow : open for settlement iu several parts of tbe :, west is going ou, and there is no doubt t ha t ' U will be increased largely during the com­ing months. Nearly two years ago the ' Oklahoma boomers wero pushing their way to the Indian Territory, aud thousands of them were camped beside ttieir teams' aloti.i; the southern border of Kansas, aux-lously waitiug for the opeuing of that re­gion to settlers.

M»ny of them crossed the liu« before they had the-light to do so, and :vs nocropscoukl then by raised there were hardships aud suffering among them. Some took refuge iu Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas, some were driven out by Federal troops aud others made their way to obscure regions, where they lived for a time on such pro­visions as they bad brought with them or as could be procured from Kansas. The boom had suffered a setback, though squatters still got iuto Oklahoma somehow lu eousiderable numbers. Last year the government bud trouble with theCherokee Indians iu its negotiations for the surren­deror their lauds, uud this continued till il was evident that legal settlements could not be made on these lands in ISA).

Mauy boomers were agaiu gathered ou the border at tbe close of tho year, aud when the report came to them that nego­tiations had been closed several hundred families struck out for tbe lauds in ques­tion. As tho report proved to be inaccu­rate, they had to return to the Kansas side of the line. Tho trouble lias not yet beeu brought to a satisfactory termination, but as the adjacent lauds of the Sac and Fox Indiiins are now open by treaty the new settlers havo begun to take up claims there, though the land is uot yet surveyed. It is very certain that the movement iu that direction will be heavy during tho next few months, or till every acre of the soil has its claimant. Accordiug to a re­cent dispatch, the "town lot boomers" are especially busy there at this time.

It is not only to Oklahoma that the laud busters are bound just uow. Recently printed dispatches from northern Wiscon­sin describe the rush to tbe big strip that has been opened to claimants there. At tho land offices iu Ashland, Wausau uud Eau Claire thousands of settlers have stood in liuo awaiting their turn to file their claims, and so highly have advanced places in tho line beeu valued that round sums of money have in some cases been offered for them. At two of these offices a short time ago the homesteaders became so turbulent tha t a cotupauy of infantry was needed to keep order. It is probable that by this time nearly all the claims in the big strip have been taken up.

There is news also of a heavy immigra­tion to the state of Washington on the Pa­cific coast. I t has been In progress during the winter months, and is now very sure of enlargement. The papers there do all they can to encourage it by publishing accounts of the fine climate and fertile soil of the state, especially thoso parts of it west of the Cascado range and along the rivers that empty into Puget sound, which, ac­cording to tbe Seattle papers, boat all the rest of the world for raising grains, vege­tables, berries and all sorts of "family gar­den t ruck." "Nowhere else," so it is said, "can man live aud flourish on so small a piece of land as in this attractive region." —New Y'ork Sun.

Not t>ulto Bald. " I gave my mother such a fright the

other day," said a pretty girl. - -'You know that although she has a grown up daugh­ter her hair is the saute shade of browu as tnlue, uud there is not the slightest tiuge of gr.iy to be seen iu it. I um very fond of doing mamma's hair, and as I can arrange It in a more becoming manner thau she can she generally allows me to fix it ex­actly as I choose, and goes out afterwanl feeling that s!ie looks as well as she possi­bly can. Lately uiy task has been more difficult, as mamma's beautiful hair has beeu falling out aud getting thinner and thinner. We have 'Wth worried a little over this, and have tried every hair re-newer we could thiuk of, but without suc-ce<*s.

"One day when I was pondering how I could make my mother's coiffeur especially beautiful (or a reception that she was to attend in a few days, au idea came into my head, and collecting all mycouibiugs 1 had a switch made up which matched mamma's hair perfectly. On tbe eventful evening 1 dressed her hair as usual, and without saying anything to her used my new switch. She paid no attention to what I was doing, and only praised my efforts when I got through, saying that her hair had never looked so well. I was nearly asleep wheushe returned from the recep­tion, but was suddenly startled by a loud scream. Hushing to my mother's room, 1 found her with the switch in her hand aud a look of horror ou ber face. 'What shall 1 do, Alice!' she exclaimed; 'look at this enormous piece of hair that has just come off. I must be perfectly bald.' Of course I Immediately explained, but she has hard­ly forgiven me yet for giving her such a fright."—New York Telegram.

The biggest of all really powerful flying birds are, I believe, the wandering alba­tross and tbo South American condor—for the roc I reject outright as worthy only of the most restricted Arabian and nocturnal ornithology. Seen on the wing, or even with the wings expanded merely, both theso great oxisting birds have a most ma­jestic and colossal appearance. But feath­ers in such cases are very deceptive; they make fine birds out of very small bodies.

For example, our well known little En­glish swift, which looks so imposing in flight as it passes overhead with pinions poised, is hardly as big wlien plucked as a man's top thumb joint, aud weighs only half an ounce. So, too, the albatross, though its expanse of wing is said to ex­ceed that of any other known bird, amount­ing sometimes to nearly ten feet from tip to tip, docs not average in weight more than fifteen pounds, which i.i just exactly the poulterer's statement for my Christmas turkey.

As for the condor, while ho spans from wing to wing somo eight feet, his length from beak to tail is only three and a half,

• and I doubt it ho would pluck into any­thing corresponding to his magnificent o'^tci show, though I am bound to admit that I have never personally tried tho un­pleasant experiment.—Cornhill Magazine.

It is not generally realized that there are in this country literally millions upon mill­ions of lakes available for water farming, in size all the way from mere ponds to the great Inland seas of fresh water. Iu Illinois alone there are tens of thousands of lakes, aud hundreds of thousands more can be readily created. There are In that state hundreds of thousands of extinct lakes which can easily be transformed iuto sheets of water by the simplest means. All the enormous "I>ake Plain," as it is known to geoloj/i is, comprising Wisconsin, Minne­sota and Michigan, north of the Ohio river, is dotted with countless sheets of water, conditions being abundant for creating a million more by such' Inexpensive artifices as the damming of streams.

By damming at intervals every creek and rivulet can be made to form artificial lakes. Everywhere in the United States it is pretty much the same, and every acre of this water can be made to produce several times as much food its can bo obtained from tho most fertile aero of land.

Even tho vast arid region, tho "Great Desert" of the west, is specked all over with multitudes of extinct lakes which can be filled onco more and made to teem agaiu with fish life as they once did.— Washington Star.

Did not a dish of lampreys kill Henry I? and was not overeating fatal to George I?—"pallid Death pressing upon him," as Thackeray says, "in his traveling chariot on tho Han­over road. What postilion can outride that pale horsomau?" Both Frederick III, emperor of Germany, and his son, Maxi­milian I, died through excessive indulgence iu melons; Baldwin IV, king of Jerusalem, died of leprosy; Philip III of Spain, of the etiquette which left hhn to be roasted be­fore a flaming brazier because the official could not bo found whoso special functlou It was to remove it, and Stanislas Leszczyn-ski, king of Poland, of tho terrible burns he received through his dressing gown ac­cidentally taking fire.

Professor Putnam, secretary of tho Amer­ican Association, according to Popular Sci­ence News, recently made an interesting-discovery which furnishes fresh evidence In support of the theory that mau In Amer­ica was contemporaneous with the mam­moth. In a communication to the Boston Society of Natural History, Professor Put­nam describes a shell found by him In the state of Delaware, Upon a portion of this shell is scratched the rutlo outline of what without doubt represents a mammoth. The shell was found under peat, and near by were human bones, charcoal, bones of animals and stone implements.

Tura had brdught with him the sticks wherewith fire Is produced by friction, and Ire proceeded t«-klridl»-a_firo_antlLtO. cook some food, much to the astonishment of tho fairies, Who hurl always consumed their food in its natural state.
