BEAUTy.-Socrates calls it a short-llved
tyranny; Plato, the privilege of nature; Theo-
phrastus, mute eloquence; Dogenes, the
most forcible letter of recommendation; Car
neades, queen without soldiers; Theocritus,
serpent covered with flowers; Bion, good
that does not belong to the possessor, be-
cause it is impossible to give oneself beauty,
to preserve it. After this most learned dis
play of quotations, all bristled with Greek
names, may be added the definition of a
more modern author who calls it bait that
as often catches the fisher as the fish.

"The London Critic is at length enabled

ity, that the author Of the celebrated 'Vesti
ges of the Natural History of Creation
first published in 1914, and which has since
gone through several editions, was the late
DIR. George Combe (be phrenologist) who
died about a year ago"

raging to an extent almost as great as it did
in 1859. Fifteen hundred passengers arrived
at San Francisco on the John L. Stephens,

close his ticket box to upwards of five hun

A trial is now in progress in Springfield,
Massachusetts, based on the fact that, twenty
two years ago, a citizen of tina, county had
a horse badly disfgured by some person
who escaped detection. Recently, two old
residents Of that place having quarreled, one
charged the other with having done this
mutlation in his presence, while both OF
them were young men, in 1887. Upon this,
the owner of the horse has instituted civil
suit for damages against the person charged
with the offense, and the latter has made a
complaint for perjury against the accuser.

We observe the following recipe for ma
king cracker pie, going the rounds of thu
papers 1t is said the flavor Of the pie re-
sembles that of the apple, and during the
scarcity Of that fruit, if a substitute can be-
found, we know it will be acceptable to house,
wives:
For two pies, take three soda crackers,
pour over them five gills Of boiling water,
add two cups Of sugar, a teaspoon even full
of tartarc acid, one tablespoonful of essence
of lemon, to flavor; bake with two crusts,
and eat while warm, Give it a trial, ladies',
you will be astonished at the result.
