EXCELLENT ADyIcE-The Rev. Dan i Waldo, late
Chaplain to Congress says: Il am now anold man.
| have seen nearly century Do you want to
know how to grow old slowly and happily? Let
me tell you. Always eat owy-mnsticate we'll.
Go to your food; to your rest, to your occupations
smiling Keep good nature and soft temper
everywhere Never give way to anger. Cultivate
good memory, and to do this you must always
be communicative; repeat what you have read;
talk aboutit DIR. Johnson's great memory was
owing to his communicatveness. You young
men. who are just leaving college, let me advise
YOU to choose profession in which you can exer-
ciss your talent tho best, and at the same time be
honest"

THE CHICAGO HErREss-Tho Chicago Tribune
says, the name of the young lady who proves to be
heir to an immense fortune, is Lydia II. Schoolcy,
and not Mary. Her uncle died in England, eav-
ing an immense estate. His death occurred in
1890. His heirs we're advertised for in the Lon
don Times but never appeared and the property
went to the Crown, and has been accumulating
ever since his death. Tho grandfather of Miss
Schoolcy came to this country wealthy, leaving
wealthy parents in the west of England. The
amount of tho estate is not, Of course known, but
will probably prove splendid legacy. Miss
Schooley receives the intelligence Of her good for

tnues to fulfil her duties seamstress as if the
event was of the least importance to her

An Amisble Amussment Of the LION.

An Amiable Amusement Of the LION.
Among tho numerous fearful stories which Jules
Gerard the French lion hunter, fsealss his read
e-, wo find the following description of matt in
IN tho character Of the king Of bsasts: sasfa
The lion treats . man very di6erent nom ny
animal that he 10 accustomed 10 kill for Rod. II
he kills person who has fred at him he never
cats tho body. Ifhe meets In bis nightly prone
made man we'll clothed In burnous. bis expert
ence shows him that he is not Q marauder and he
may either kill him for food, OF IL the fancy hap
pens to take him, he will kill him by fear, littlo
by little, just ~ = pastime.
In tho Arst case he will give him barely time
enough to say his prayers, and then bounding on
him will crush his head with single bite, instead
OF struggling him as he Is accustomed to do with
other animals.
In tho second cass he sometimes will bar the
passage Of tho unfortunate fellow by lying down
before him, and then ho will walk along by his
side, purring and showing his teeth like tiger.
Sometimes ho makes believe to 30 away and leave
him alone. and then making long dsiosr hs will
conceal himself along the path and charge d him
with u roar. Sometimes ho orouchss down like q
cat and bounds on his victim, who gives himself
up for lost. but The tantaliser only knocks him
over, strikes him in the face with blow like
ial from his muscular tail. At last the victim
suoeumbs To the agony that 10 greater than thou
and deaths, and dies Of very fear
These pastimes Of the lion. that ~ one can we'll
imagine have never been told By the victim him
soli, arc reported by his oomrades who, hsyisg
boon in company, sought nafoty, BY fight, by ~
ing refuge on rocks or tssss. while IL Ioor soul
that was captured, too much ftighcnfl to imitato
their example, died before their rvos Of terror.
while they could do nothing for bis relief but pray
to tl,e Prophet. who only hcard wien ii was too
lato to snve.
These attacks. no horrible in their fascination,
hnve giycn ccrtnin semblancc Of proof 10 the ut-
ivcrsaly accredited belief in tho magnetising pow

THE SELECTION OF WIrE.-Sam Slick in his
ate "snyings' gives some advice about tho sslec-
ion Of wife. Says he:
Don't marry too poor gal, for they are apt to
think there is no eend to their husbands puss !;
nor too rich gal for they are apt to remind you
# it orplcasant sometimes, nor too giddy gal,
or they neglect their families; nor too demure a
one for they are most apt to give you tho dodge,
race off, and leave you, nor too weak minded u
one, for children take all their talents from their
mothcrs" and with all duo Difference to the ladies
we would ask Mr.. Slick if he means to insinuate
that the population of the world is already largo
enough?

HEAT FROM THE SrARs.-Dr Lardner says:-1t
is startling fact, that if the earth wore depend.
cnt alone upon the sun for hent, it would not get
enough to make existence of animal and vegetable
life upon its surface 1t results from the research
90 of Pouilet. that the stars furnish heat enough
in the course Of year to melt crust Of ice IS
feet thick, almost as much as is supplied by the
sun. This may appear strange. when we consider
how immeasursbly small must be the amount OF
