The Arc Of Triumph, Paris has
beon destroyed by the fire of the Yer.
sailles batteries. What th, icono-

gladly have avoided the sacrifice.
The Arc of Triumph was tho frst OBJ.

not the loss Of Paris alone, nor of
France, but Of all those who honor
art throughout the civilized world.

to The view upon what we have long

the Southern States over those of lhe
far West as a point Of emigration for
Northern settlers. It is at pains
to deny that il urges every ore to fly from

the country, and there engage in farm

westward, we are told j has. over aha

Taking Things Without Asking.

When I was boy, wak playing out in
the street one winters day, catching rides
on sleighs, and it was great fun. Boys
would rather catch rides any day than
go out regularly and properly to take
drive. As / was catching on to one
sleigh and to another, sometimes having
a nice time, and ofttimes getting cut
from big black whip, at last fastened
like a barnacle to the side Of a country
mans cutter
An old gentleman sat alone on the
seat, and he looked at me rather benig-
nantly, as I thought, and neither said
anything to me, nor swung his old whip
over me; SO ventured to climb upon
the side of his cutter. Another benig
nant look from the countryman, but
not word Emboldened by his sup
posed goodness, 1 ventured to tumble
into the cutter and take seat under the
warm buffalo rode beside him, and then
he spoke. The colloquy was as follows
Young man, do you like to ride
eyes"
cts pretty nice cutter, isn't it ,"
eyes, sir, it is, and nice horse draw
ing it."
TDid I ask you to get in ?"
"No, sill"
"Well, then, why did you get in i"
"Well, sir, II thought you looked
so good and kind, and that you would
have no objection"
"And so, young man, because you
thought was good and kind, you took
advantage of that kindness, and took a
favor without asking for it ,"
eyes, sir"
els that ride worth having ?"
eyes, sir"
"Well, now, young man, want to
tell you two things. You should never
take mean advantage of the kindness
of others; and what is worth having, is
worth at least asking for. Now as you
tumbled into this sleigh without asking
me, I shall tumble you out into that
snow-drift without asking you.
And out I went, like shot off a
shovel, and he didn't make much fuss
about it either. 1 picked myself up in
slightly bewildered state, but never
forgot that lesson.
