Joe's Failing Discovered.

Our old friend Joe is what is gen
orally termed bad boy, and succeed
ed in binding his mother foc some
time, as to his imbibing propensi-
ties; and one morning she said to
him, after he had swallowed some
half dozen cups of coffee, and as
many glasses of cold water:
Joseph, thee should drink some
thing before thee goes to bed at
night-thee is always so thirsty in.
the morning
But one night, one fatal night, Joe
came in before the old lady retired.
He sat down, and, with that look Of
semi-intoxicated wisdom, began con
yersing about the goodness of the
crops, the late unfortunate outbreak
in the meeting, and was getting on
very well, until he espied what he
supposed to be a cigar on the mantle
piece; he caught it, and placing one
end in his mouth, began very grave
ly to light it at the candle. He drew
and puffed until he was getting red
in the face. The old lady's eyes
were at last open, and she addressed
him
Joseph, if thee takes that ten
penny nail for a cigar, it is time thee
went to bed"

The influence Of NewspaperI.

The Boston TraUeuer states that
a school teacher who had enjoyed
the benefit of a long practice of his
profession, and had watched closely
the influence of a newspaper upon
the minds of family of children,
gives as a result of his observation
that without exception those schol-
ars Of both sexes and all ages who
have access to newspapers at home,
when compared with those who have
not, are: l. Better readers, excel
ling in pronunciation, and conse-
queDtly read more Understandings.
2. They are better spoilers, and de-
fine words with ease and accuracy.
8. They obtain a partial knowledge
of geography in almost half the time
it requires others, as the the news
paper has made them familiar with
the location of important places and
nations, their governments and do
ings. 4. They are better gram
marians, for having become familiar
with every variety of style in the
newspaper, from commonplace ad-
Hertisementsto the finished and clas-
sical Grafton of the statesman, they
more readily comprehend the mean
ing OF the text, and consequently
analyze its contents with accuracy.

Accomplished.

what an Ohio Drummer Boy has
Accomplished.
One Of the best illustrations of
what tact, pluck and energy will do
for man is given in the history of
Samuel Bryan, of Cadiz, o. Bryan
enlisted at the opening of the war as
a drummer boy, being 20 years old.
In a short time he secured a dis
charge, and in little while there
after a situation as clerk in the Sixth
Auditor Office at Washington, Here
he was placed in charge Of the British.
mail desk. Becoming acquainted.
with the foreign mail service, he was.
struck with the fact that while Japan
had introduced our internal revenue
and agricultural systems, she had
made no effort to establish a postal
department. He determined to make
an effort toward doing this himself.
He had an interview with Minister
Delong, metwith encouragement, and
finally, having secured a temporary
SITUATION on steamship plying be-
tween San Frascisco and Yokohama,
left for Japan. He arrived in the lat
ter city with but twenty five cents in
his pocket, and met with many diff
ficulties in his work; but finally the
Government organized a postal bu-
reau and made Mr. Bryan special com
missioner to negotiate e treaty with
the United States, Great Britain,
France and Germany, at salary of
5000 per annum, all expenses borne,
and assistants and clerks to help him
in his work. Mr.. Bryan has accom-
plished his mission, so far as this
country is concerned, and sailed for
Havre last week. Though not the
nominal, he is the real, head of the
Postal Department for Japan, and is
very naturally proud of his success.

Economy in Cooking

sometimes meet people who seem
to think that all economy, especially
in cooking, is meanness. People who
have everything to buy soon learn, if
they are attentive, that butter, eggs
and sugar are very expensive items
in a family. They are all good in
their place but they are often used
so freely as to interfere with the com
fort and prosperity of a family.
'Iucy Maria" observes that "house-
keepers add grease and sweetenings
at the approach of company" It
does seem that some people imagine
that good cooking consists in using
a great proportion of shortening,
sweetening and tightening in the way
Of butter, lard and eggs. They pile
these into things that would be quite
good enough, and far more digesti-
bic without them. Are these the
people who cannot afford to buy nice
frnit-tO say nothing Of books and
newspapers? Are these the ones who
think it extravagant to get good play
things for their children?
