Oaks Planted by Squirrels.

1t is a curious circumstance, and not
generally known, that many Of the oaks
which are called spontaneous are planted
by the squirrels The little animal has
performed the most essential service to
the British Navy. A gentleman walk
ing ono day in wood belonging to the
Duke of Beaufort, near Trevhouse, IN
the County of Monmouth, had his atten
tion diverted by squirrel, which sat
very composedly on the ground. He
stopped to observe his motions. In a
few moments the squirrel dartcd like
lightning to the top of the tr ee beneath
which he had been sitting; and in an
instant he was down with an acorn in
his mouth, AMI began to burrow in the
earth with his PAWS.
After digging hole, he stopped down
and deposited the acorn; then covering
it, he darted up the tree again. In a
moment, he was down with another,
which he buried in the same manner.
This he continued to do as long as he
thought proper to watch him.
The industry of this little animal is
directed to the purpose of securing him
self against want in winter, q nd, as it is
probable that his me nory is not sufi

size and richness OF the ear, SO would be

The Wages of Salflshness.

Many years ago there lived in Egypt
an old man named Amin 4 time of
great famine came upon the land, just
as there was onco in the days Of Joseph.
Amin had great store Of wheat in his
granaries. When bread began to get
scarce his ueighbors came to him to buy
grain. But he refused to sell it to them
He said he was going to keep his stock
till the rest Of the grain in the land was
gone, because he could get higher
price for it. Many died; and yet this
selfish man kept his stores locked up.
At last the starving people were ready
to give him any price he asked for his
grain. He teok the great iron key of
his vast granary. He opened the door
and went in. Worms had entered the
great heaps of his one beautiful grain
and destroyed it all. Hungry as the
people were, they yet raised a great
shout of gladness at what had happened
But such was the effect of the disap
pointment on the old man himself, that
he fell dead at the door Of his granary
"His selfshdess killed him"
And nc me felt any pity for him
That must have been the most horrible
thing of all. To have others feel for us,
we must feel for them, and that was Just
what the old man did not do. 1t is a
good CLAN, perhaps somo Of you have
tried it already, to endeavor to make
some one happy every day. See how
quickly tho figures mount up In one
year thoro would be three hundred and
sixty five persons to whom you had
given some pleasures, aud in ten years
they would number three thousand six
hundred and fifty not counting yourself,

The Social Glass.

How very few of those who are in the
habit of indulging in social glass ever
think of the dangers to which they are
subjected! How many moderate drink
ers arc there in the country who think
they will ever become common street
druukards? They are very scarce, We all
know how many drunkards there are
aud also know that every one of the In
was once a moderate drinker.
And many young man who can re
sist almost any thing else, cannot resist
the invitation to take a drink. Why is
it there must be something deeper in an
invitation to take glass than in any
thing else, as a man is too weak to re-
sist temptation. The great trouble is
that they think there is no harm in one
glass.
If you over drink the first glass there
will DO no temptation to try the second
It Is social evil, and one of immense
power to do evil in our country.
We know that it takes moral courage
to stand up firmly and say, No, will
not drink; but you can do it if you will
And to you is recorded the privilege of
showing that you can resist temptation
if you will.
Learn to resist the social glass; learn
to say no, whenever the intoxicating
cup is offered you, whether by the hand
of some fair and beautiful young lady
or by the dirty, greasy hand of bar
keeper.
If you would shun the evil of intem
perance, If you would live as man
should live, if you want to be man let
the social glass alone.
But if you would sink your manhood
below the brute, if you would kill all
qualities that go toward making up the
true man, be moderate drinker.

A Happy Surprise.

We have read somewhere Of an in :
genious stratagem, devised by Ere nch
lady of fortune, for securing q husband.
She had kept herself secluded from se-
ciety, and gave out report that she was
frightfully ugly as counter influence
against her well-known wealth. AS she
was not accessible personally to her
suitors, they had recourse to their billet
deux; and among these one from belgium
pleased her fancy, and to this emissive
she replied, An interview was accor-
dcd. and the fortunate suitor proved to
be man of fortune also, and of noble
character.
When they met ia her saloon, the
lady wore a mask. Shc warned him
not to risk his happiness by allying him
self with one SO deiormed in face aud
feature
He replied We'll, accept my hand,
and never unmask but 70 the ayes Of
your husband; sIor he was so charmed
with her eloquence ar' grace of man

Vive the appearance of fight aud dis

said he. 1T is your heart, and not your
figure that charms me-
In few days their marriage took
place and Notwithstanding his refusal
to accept it, the whole of her fort une
was settled upon him.
Returning from the alter, she threw
herself upon her knees before her h us
band, and placing her hand upon her
mask, lifted it exclaiming. 'You have
not deserved deformity, you merit the

A correspondent at Fort Klamath
says he was perfectly uuprOpared for the
frantic state of grief which the Modoc
Iudian women worked themselves into,
when it was announced that there was
no hope for Captain Jack and his
companions. They howled their weird
death song, and threw themselves on
their doomed friends, fawning them all
over. Even the little children seemed
to catch the infection, and they cried
and wept in the most finished style.
Jack appeared very much affected on

An old French shoemaker, who
boasted that not hing could frighten
him, was put to the test by two young
men. One of them pretended to be
dead, and the other going to the shoe
maker, induced him to "sit up" with
the supposed corpse. The shoemaker,
was in hurry with some work he had
promised to be completed the next
morning. So he took his tools and
leather and began working beside the
corpse. About twelve O'Clock at night
cup of black coffee was brought to
him, to keep him awake. He drank it
and resumed work. About l c'cleck,
the coffee haviae, exhilarated him, for
getting that he was in the presence of
death, he commenced to sing lively
tune, keeping time with his hammer
Suddenly the corpse arose and exclaiz.
cd in hollow voice: "Whcn n mau is
in the presence Of death he should not
sing" The shoemaker started then
quietly seizing his stout leather strap,
he suddenly dealt the corps a blow on
the head, exclaiming at the same time
"When a man is dead he should not
speak" 1t was the last time they tried
to scare the shoemaker.

THE MASKED FIANCEE.
OR
The Clever Ruse OF n French
WOmans.

1t was the Carnival season in Paris,
and Colonel Eugene Merville, an
attache of the great Napo!eon's staff,
who had won his way to distinction by
his own sabre, found himself at the
masked ball in the French Opera
House. Better adapted in his tastes to
the field than the parlor, he firted but
little with the gay figures that covered
the floor, and Joined but seldom in the
giddy waltz. But at last, while stand
ing thouehtfully, and regarding the
assembled throng with vacant eye, his
attention was suddenly aroused by the
appearance of person in white satin
domino, the universal elegance of whose
figure, manner and bearing, convinced
all that her face and mind must be
equal to her person in beauty and grace.
Though in SO mixed an assembly,
still there was dignity and reserve in
the manner of the white domino that
rather repulsed the idea of familiar
address, and it was some time before the
young soldier found courage to speak to
her.
Some alarm being given there was
violent rush of the throng toward the
door, where, unless assisted, the lady
would have materially suffered. Eugene
Mervile offered his arm, and with his
broad shoulders and stout frame kept off
the danger. 1t WIS delightful moment,
the lady spoke the purest French, was
