A Rnby,s Biosra rl,y.

We have had so many kind friends
asking about that baby, that we have
thought it necessary to biograph the
chap briefly, and somewhat after the
current style of the day:
It's u boy.
He's buster. s....a. ...
Weighs nine pounds and quarter,
ana old women tell us thnt he will
grow heavier ms his weight increases.
He's the first boy OF which we've
ever been proprietor, and of course he s
the only baby in town.
The old women before mentioned de-
clare him the very image of iis pa
"A little copy OF his faithful sire,
In form and gesture"
But in justice to the youth, we must
say we think him an improvement on
the original--a world of progress you
know.
This young American is ms old as
could he expected, considering the time
he was born, and viii! doubtless be too
old for his father in few years, if he
has good luck. ..a
He is quite reticent on politics, and
only wants to be let alone.
lie thinks he favors Mrs. Winslow's 3
policy. t4 ~
We haven't named him vet; we want
to give him distinguished cognomen,
but the fame of our great men is at
present SO prccarious that we don't like
the risk.
1t is perhaps unnecessary to say, ms
all biographies do of distinguished per.
sonages, that the subject of this sketch
was born at q very early age, of "poor,
but respectable PARENTS"

Value ofAccuracy.

II IL the result Of every days expert.
ence that steady attention to matters of
detail lies at the root of human prog
ress, and that diligence, above all, is
the mother of good luck. Accuracy is
also of much importance, and an
invariable mark of good training in a
man-accuracy in observation, aceur-
acy in speech, accuracy In the transact
ion Of affairs. What is done in busi-
ness must be well done; for it is better
to accomplish perfectly small amount
of work, than TO hnlf-d0 ten times as
much. 4 wise man used to say, "Stay
n little that we make an end the SOON
er." Too little attention, however, is
paid to this highly important quality
Of accuracy. AS a man eminent i'm
practical science lately observed, :. 1t is
astonishing how few people l have
met in the course Of my experience
who can define fact accurately Yet,
in business affairs, it IL the manner
even in which small matters are trans
acted, that often decides men for or
against you. With virtue, capacity,
and good conduct in other respects, the
person who is habitually Inaccurate In
other respects cannot be trusted; his
work has to be done over again ;and he
thus causes endless annoyance, vexation,
and trouble.-Rurat -Ne,O Yorker.

A Yankee Pudding.

The following story is told OF Yam
kee captain and his mate:
Whenever there was plum pudding
made, by the captains orders all Of the
plnms were put into one end of it, and
that end placed next to the captain,
who, after helping himself, passed IL to
his mate, who never found any plums
in his part Of IL. Well, after the game
had been played for some time, the
mate prevailed on the steward to place
the end that had no plums in IL next
the captain. The captain no sooner
saw the pudding than he discovered
that he had the wrong end of it. Pick
ing up the dish, and turning it In his
hands, as If merely examining the
china, he said: "This dish cost me two
shillings in Liverpool, and put il
down, as though without design, with
the plum end next himself "Is il
possible,n said the mate, taking up the
dish: "I shouldn't suppose It was
worth more than shilling,n and, MS IL
IN perfect innocence, he put down the
dish with the plum end ucxt to himself.
The captain looked at the mate, the
mate looked at the captain. The cap
tain laughed, the mate laughed. 81
tell you what, young one" said the
captain, "you've found me out, so
Well just cut the pudding lengthwise

The trntnl seven.

Uuder this head, the Pittsburgh Com
mercidl notices the curious fact that al
most every decade in our history, end
ing with the figure screR, has marked
the beginning of a financial crash or
depression. Thus, with 1907 came the
crash that wiped out the Continental
currency. In 1907 our troubles with
France, and expected war with Eng
land, confused the business OF tho
country. In 1877 a tremendous finan.
cial convulsion occurred, the legacy Of
the war of 1Si2-li. In 1S27..thc infict-
ion was less severe, but ten years later,
in 1887, the whole banking system and
business of the country went down, to
he prostrated to greater or less extent
for the ensuing five years. In AZ there
were no particularly hard times on this
side of the Atlantic, but on the other
side the English railroad spcculations
produced great evils, and gaunt famine
stalkcd over Ireland and other portions
of Europe. In 1857 initiation and over
trading, with us, ended in serious COM
mercial losses. We have begun nnoth.
er decade; shall the singular continuity
remain unbroken2 ...... ..s:- -....''.
