last monthly meeting of the Connecticut His
torical Society, Hon. Henry Barnard. the Presi-
dent. presented an interesting paper relating to
thA amount Of donations, requests, etc, made
for educational. literary and scientific purposes
in the United States. The whole amount OF
land appropriated by the General Government
for educational purposes to the LIST Of Janua--
ny, 1904. was stated to be 62,070.12l acres,

first brought into market, represented the mag
niiicent sum Of S66, 100000, which, at this time,
could not be worth less than $200,0o0,O0D.
The amount of donations and subscriptions by
individuals far exceeds all that has been given
by State Legislatures.

Welded TO A HABIr.-Thc following anec-
dote affords a valuable hint to the young lady
who does not wish to occupy a secondary sta
ton in the affections Of the man she marries.
Can the young gentlemen who loves the wine
cup or the cigar better than he does the fair
girl to whome he offers his baud eyet become
u true and constant husband 2?
A young couple were sitting together in a
romantic spot, with birds and flowers about
them, when the following dialogue ensued:
My dear, if the sacrifice Of my life would
pleas the, gladly would lay it at thy feet"
',Oh, sir, you are too kind But it inst re-
mindr me that | wish you'd stop using tobac-
co."
Cant think of it. It's a habit to which
am welded"
"Very well, sir; since this is the way you
lay down your life for me, and as you arc al
ready welded to tobacco, LII take good care
that you are never welded to me, as that would
be bigamy."
