For the eternal hills.

Queer Things about Babies.

A great many curious things happen
to babies in this round world of ours
that youthful readers probably never
heard Of Our Young Folks tells about
some of them.
One thing is-planting them. This is
done by the dark-skinned women of
Guinea, and it isn't half so dreadful as
it sounds. The mother digs hole in the
ground, stands baby in it, and then packs
the warm sand around him to keep him
in place-as you would set rosebush.
1t keeps him out of mischief, and he can
play in the sand while his mother works.
All day long he stays in this old crib,
and at night, when she is done with her
work, he is dug out.
When this agricultural mother wants
to carry baby about she ties him into
little chair which she straps to her back.
If it is very grand occasion, he is dress
ed neatly in stripes of white paint, and
ornamented with dozens of brass brace
lets and rings on lis arms and legs. A
funny looking baby he must be
If you don't fancy a crib of sand for
a baby. what do you think of big shoe,
stuffed with moss to make it eomforta-
BILE? The droll little Laps cradle their
babies in that way. The shoe is large
of course, and made Of reindeerskin.
1t comes up high in the back, like the
slippers we wear nowadays, and is turn
ed up at the toe. The moss with which
it is stuffed is the famous reindeer moss,
soft and white; and the odd little black
eyed baby looks very comfortable hang
ing from tree, or slung across its moth
er's back.
Perhaps this baby who lives in shoe
is no more comical than the baby who
lives in fur bag-another sober little
black-eyed baby, away off in the shivery
huts. Besides being cuddled
up in fur bag at his mothers back, this
little fellow wears fur hood,
and looks like some strange kind of an
imal peeping out ON the world.

a German Sunday.

The Germans idea of Sunday is any
thing but Puritanic. 1t is the very op-
poslte. 1t is for them day of amuse-
ment. 1t is no unusual thing to be asked
by German on Monday morning,
Well, how did you amuse yourself
yesterday ?" There are those among
the Germans, of course, who respect and
keep the Sabbath; but then there are
always enough Of them who do not and
to Judge by the numbers in which they
frequent their places of amusement on
Sunday,-the parks, gardens, and
public halls,-a stranger might possibly
be tempted to inquire whether the Ger
mans had any idea of Sabbath. Men,
women and children, older men with
their wives, and younger ones with their
sweethearts, throng these places every
Sunday, and ENJOY themselves, careless
OF what impression they make on their
fellow-citizens of American origin, to
whom the sound of brass instruments on
the Sabbath air is anything but welcome
or edifying. In the cold days of winter,
when the parks and beer-gardens are
dreary and shorn of their beauty. the
German seeks amusement in some hall
instead. Here he treats himself to
compound of rather heterogeneous ele-
ments,-to music, beer and smoke; and
to all of them at once. Any Sunday
afternoon in the cold of wintsr, YOU NAV
find him, with his wife or child, or both.
IN some large hall, one of hundred or
FIVE hundred, smoking his meerschaum
or his cigar, slipping his beer, wine, or
coffee, and listening to a selection from
Meyerbeer or Beethoven. Were 1t sum-
.mer, he would add the odor of roses to
the fumes of his tobacco and the smell
of his beer for he is as fond of flowers
as he is of any of these, and is never
happier than when the air, trembling in
the notes of the orchestra, is redolent
with tobacco smoke, the perfume of the
rose, heliotrope, and hop, and he is him
self in the midst of them all.-AHantic

French Politeness.
BY RRT. DALE OWEN.

| had heard as every one has, of th'
politeness for which the French of all
classes are famous; and resolved
strictly to test it.
On one of the boulevards | saw, one
day, woman who might be of any age
from sixty to eighty, sitting bowed as
with infrmity over stall loaded with
apples and oranges; her wrinkled face,
the color of time stained parchment, her
eyes half closed, and her whole expires.

but dotted my hat to her, as one instinc-

have the goodness to direct me thither.
shall never forget the transforma-
ton that took place while / was speak
ing. The crouched figure erected itself;
the face awoke, its stolid look and half
lis wrinkles, as it seemed, gone; the ap-
parent sullenness replaced by gentle
and kindly air while the voice was
pitched in pleasant and courteous
tone. 1t said, " Monsieur will be SO
good as to cross the boulevard Just here,
then to pass on, leaving two cross streets
behind him at the third cross street he
will please turn to the right, and then be
will be so kind as to descend that street
until he shall have passed the cathedral
on the left; Monsieur will be careful not
to leave this street until he shall have
passed the cathedral and another cross
street /; then he will turn to the left and
continue until he reaches fountain, af.

other turnings and windings.

WHAT PUBLIC MEN Owe TO News
PAPERs.-Colonel Forney complains, in
well-written article in the Philadelphia
Press. that public men are, as a class,
ungrateful to the newspapers and the
journalists to whom they, in many in
stances, owe their position. Nobody is
more competent to speak on this subject
than Colonel Forney himself He has
made more statesmen out of small ma
terial than any man in America. He
has taken more active part in the last
twenty years than almost any other man.
Much of this work has been that of a
politician rather than that of a journal
lst; but in either capacity, he has always
been able to serve his friends well, and
he has always served them faithfully.
His reward has been very small. Ii he
had let politics alone, and devoted him
self exclusively to journalism, he might
have made greater name than Greeley's
and a greater fortune than Bonnett's. But
he was always fond of helping some
friend to an Office, and always had
taste for political intrigue with purpose
of this kind. His experience has, no
doubt, been that Of hundred others
who have operated in the same way on
a smaller scale. Make Governor out
of an Alderman to-day and tomorrow
he'll tell you that he owes his elevation
to bis own superior merits. Forney made
a President Of the United States out of a
James Buchanan but before the old
public functionary had taken his seat,
he repudiated his patentee and manufac-
turer in most ungrateful manner. Con-
gressmen are made by country newspa-
pers; yet when they go to Washington,
it wouldn't be safe to tell them so.-S.

Naming Children.

1t belongs to parents to give names to
their children. The children themselves,
the most interested parties, have no voice
in the matter. Were it so, in many in
stances, doubtless, they would cry out
against the names imposed upon them,
as they oftentimes do, too late, in after
years. Names without rhyme or reason !"
are often given to children, which they
are ashamed of when they grow up.
They are named for some great grand
father, or great grandmother, or for
some biblical character, Shear Jashub,
it may be,-all well enough in the old
Hebrew, but rather out of taste in mod
ern English.
Many names in these days are taken
from novels, and are extremely fiat and
silly. They would answer well for
doll, and perhaps for those that bear
them, were they always to be babies;
bet they soon outgrow them, and in adult
years they set hardly better upon them
tfan would their swaddling clothes. In
naming our children we should remem-
Der that, if spared, they will soon be-
come men and women; and we should
give them manly and womanly names
names that they will not blush to hear
pronounced in any circle. Let our chill
dren have two names, no more and no
less; and let these be, like that ever
verdant name, Mary" substantial and
becoming. Springfield [Mass.l Union.

Now what hath entered my loved woods,
And touched their green with sudden change
What is this last of Natures moods
That makes the roadside look so strange?
Who blanehed my thistle's blushing face.
And gave the winds her silver hairg
Set golden rod within her place.
And scattered asters eyerywhere2
Who splashed with red the sumach hedge
The sassafras with purple stain;
Gave ivy-leayes a ruby edge,
And painted all their stems again.
Lo the change reaches high and wide,
Hath toned the sky to softer blue;
Hath crept along the riverside,
And trod the valleys through and through
Discolored every hazel copse,
And stricken all the pasture lands:
Flung wells across the mountain tops,
And bound their feet with yellow bands
Is, then, September con- G so soon?
Full time doth Summer ser abide?
While yet it seems but summers noon,
We're floating down the autumn tide.
