Anthony Trollope has pretty deep in
sight into human life. which he we'll knows
how to exhibit in his novels. Who else
Would ever have faith omed thi, depth in the
lovc-making period of our lives9 He SAYS
that perhaps there is no period so pleas
ant among all the pleasant period, of love-
making as that in which the intimacy be-
tween the lovers is so assured. and the
coming event so near, as to produce and en-
d'lrc conversation about the ordinary little
matters of life; what can be done with the
limited means at their disposal; how that
life shall be begun which they shall lead to-
gcthcr; what idea each has of the others
duties; what each cw do for the other,
what each will rcnounct for the other
There was trnc sense Of the delight ofin-
timacy IN the girl who declared that she
had never loved her lover so well as when
she told him how many pairs of stockings
She had got. 1t is very sweet to gaze at
the stars, and it is sweet to sit out among
the laycocks. The reading of poetry to-
gether, out the same book. with brows
all close, and arms all mingled. is very
sweet the pouring out of the whole heart
in words. which the writer knows would
be held to be ridiculous by any eyes and
ears, and amy sense but the eyes and
'cars, and sense Of the dear one to whom
they are sent, is very sweet; but for
the girl who has made shirt for the man
she loves. there has comea moment in the
last stitch of it sweeter than any stars.

Very few ladies know how to appre-

to the tight fits Of dress makers that
they fall all to pieces when relieved
Of them, They associate the loose
dress with the bed or lounge. 10 be
up, they must be stayed up, and to
recommend Il comfortable dress to
them is not to meet conscious want of
theirs. II is great pity none the less,
If they could once know what a luxury
it is to breathe deep and full
at each respiration, to feel the' re
treshmeut which the system takes on
by having the blood enlivened and
sent bounding through the arteries
and veins, to have the aids to digestion
given by such process, to have their
strong elastic muscles keep every organ
in place and themselves erect; if they
could for good while know this bcs
sed luxury, and then be sent back into
the old, stiff, straight,jackets, they
would tnme, and fret, and rave in very
desperation if they could not get rid OF
them. As it is, they prefer to langnish
and suffer drcadfully, and die young,
and leave dill of their friends and their !
husbands and their children and do
not see any other way but TO let them
he sick and die till they are satisfied.

THE value of child's life has been fixed
in one Of the New York courts at 81, 800.
A boy three years and two months old
having been run over and killed by q
street car, a suit for damages was brought
by his father, and after patient hearing
the amount stated was awarded, although
the defendants set up plea that in the
case of child so young there is nothing
upon which the pccuniary injury to the
next in kin can by any possibility be esti-
mated There is something in this objec-
tion--the value to the parent of the life Of
a babe in arms, or little one just develop
ing into the charms and blossom of child
hood, cannot be estimated-is, indeed, be-
You'd all estimate, and for that very reason
we cannot but regard the verdict in the
case as simply inexplicable. If one OF
Bonner's horses had been killed under pre-
cisely the same circumstances which at
tended the killing of this threeyear old
boy, the damages would have been stated
at double or triple the figures named.--E1-

Father Moody aud the Turkey.

AN exchange is indebted to a Pitts
burgh correspondent for the following
capital anecdote of Father Moody, who
was born at Newbury, 1915, graduated at
Harvard College in 1893, settled in York,
Maine, in 100 and died at seventy two
years of age in 174S:
"Come, Charles my son. said Deacon
Ellsworth, "take one of these turkeys, and
carry it up to minister Moody Cor Thanks.
giving" mo, father, don't do that
again, tell you" What do hear now,
Charlesy These five-andtwenty years
have sent the minister turkey, and Joe
has carried them, and Tom and jerry, and
you, without ever refusing before. What's
the matter now?" "Why, father, he
never thanks me for bringing 1t to him.
Besides, he took me TO task, a while ago,
because started out of meeting too SOON"
"Well, son, you know it is the custom for
the minister to go out before any Of the
congregation starts this is done as a mark
of respect" Respect or not, he's moth
ing but man; and as for creeping for
him, won't do it," "Well let it pass,
and carry him the turkey, and If he don't
thank you for it, will" Charles shoulder
ed the fowl, and in short time was at the
minister's house. The minister was sur
rounded by number of his friends who
had come to spend Thanksgiving with
him. The lad entered without knocking,
and bringing the turkey from his shoulder
heavily upon the table, said: Mr.. Moody,
there's a turkey for you. IL you want it,
you may have IT,; If you don't, I'll carry 1t
back again" 81 shall be very glad of it,"
said the minister, "but think you might
learn little manners, Charles Can't
you do an GRAND better?" How would
you like to have me do it ?" asked Charles.
"Sit down in my chair" said the clergy
man, "and will show you how Charles
took the chair, while the divine took the
turkey and left the room. He soon return
ed, took off his het, made a very low bow
and said: Mr. Moody, here IL u turkey
which my father sends to you and wishes
you to accept as a present" Charles rose
from his seat, took the fowl, and said to
the ministers F" It is a very fine one, and l
feel grateful to your father for it. In this
and many other instances he has contrib
uted to my happiness. If you will just
carry it into the kitchen and return again,
will send for Mrs. Moody to give you
half dollar" The good old clergyman
walked out Of the room; his friends
laughed at the joke, and made up purse
for the lad, who ever afterward received a
reward for his services.
