Story Of Tom Marshall.

Tom Marshall, says can Old Sta
GER, in Harper, at one time engaged
in such excesses that his friends became
alarmed, and determined to make nj
effort to reclaim him. Mr.. Mangum
was designated to demonstrate with the
wild Kentuckian, and endeavor to i'm.
press him with q proper sense of the
peril of his position.
"Tn hear anything you have to say,
Mangum," said Marshall, rs the Soma.
tor opened the conversation.
"Your friends have bcengreatly con.
cerned at the manner in which you have
been conducting yourself"
''Don't wonder at it. Been badly
bothered myself. Sent you here to talk
with me, didn't they?
eyes; they thought as I sometimes
take glass myself, my advice would
have the more effect.
You do drink too much, Mangum.
I've been thinking of speaking to you
on the subject. But what.do you want
me to do?''
"Your friends have the greatest adj
miration for. your genius and talents.
They arc confident that with sobriety
and application You might reasonably
aspire to the highest place under the
government"
"What do you think ]. could get?''
II have no doubt you might be made
Chief Justice of the United States"
"There's been one Chief Justice in
my family I don't care to follow him. -
lyon might even hope to become
mo great credit to follow Captain
Tyler. But + tell you what I'll do,
Mangum YOU make mo President of
tho United States, and if I don't make
you Secretary of State I'll agree to be

SeasOnable Food.

The wholcsomeness of food depends
nearly as much on the time it is taken
US Oh the quantity. We have grown 40
LUXURIOUS in our physical as we'll as
mental tastes, that We are CONSTANTLY
tempted to eat things ont of season.
Yielding to the temptation, as We often
ito, we pay the penalty, soon or late, in
temporary or chronic arrangement of
ourhcalth. Themeat which is excellent
III cold, may not be desirable in warm
weather fish is best during spring and
early summer vegetables and fruit
arc nutritious when they arc fully ripen-
ell by sun and season, and not artificial
ly stimulated.
Nature knows what she is doing she
furnishes for every latitude the produc.
tions tittcst for such latitude. We need
variety, not SO much at one time as from
time to time. The delicacies of the
season will not hurt us but the deli
cacies out of season certainly will. II
long continued: The appetite so jaded
as to- crave oysters in July, or straw.
berries in December, needs careful cor
rcction by the adoption of the simplest
habits. The palate naturally rclishes
what nature has near at hand.
As rule, not only is the simplest
food the best food, but the most sea-
s"nablc is, in the long run, the most
appctlzlng. There is no difficulty in
determining what we should cat, since
the products Of our climate show us
plainly month by month. Fish. flesh
and fruit, by their plnmpncss, tender
ness and ripcucss, themselves denote
when they arc ready to be eaten. 4
sound stomach will profit by whatever
an "nspoiled palate enjoys. -,Scri1ncr's

A WOman's jealousy.

Lima Wagratz, daughter of a mod
crately wealthy merchant of Moscow,
has been sentenced to six years. solitary
confinement for a romantic crime. At
ono of the theatres Levina Korsacky
was a performer OH wire suspended at
considerable height. She was pretty
and coquettish, and among those whom
she attracted WIS Lima Wagratz's lover.
Lima WAS made ma4ll,r jeslos,s by the
Irritation, and deliberately planned a
cruel revenge. Through her lover she
formed tho acquaintance of Levina, and
thus became frequenter of the theatre
during the rehcarsals. One day she
went slyly where the wire upon which
the performer walked, was fastened, and
cut it in two with a pair of shears. The
ends she fastened slightly together,
leaving the whole in apparently good
order. At night Levina confidently
stepped out OH the wire, which gave way
under her feet, letting her drop to tho
stage floor. Her legs were broken SO
badly that she will bo lifelong cripple.
Lima WAS Mt once arrested, tried and
found guilty, and the severe sentence is
regarded in Moscow Us not exceeding
Justice.

AnectlOtc Of Il French College.

A certain college i'll Paris is noted for
having its name changed by each now
government. The latest name given it
is the Fontanes Lyceum. An amusing
ancctlote is told Of this college in 1880.
There was fighting going on in the streets
with the view Of driving Marshal Mar
mont from Paris and Charles X. from
France. In the midst Of the firing NJ.
Gustave blanche, the Greek professor,
TRANQUILITY arrived to deliver his usual
lecture. At the college cato was a band
OF insurgents engaged in throwing up q
barricade i'll q very nnscientific manner.
Without paying any attention to polit-
ical principles, tho learned savant, taking
pity on the inexpcricnce of the men
forming brcastworl, translated to them
a few passages from Polybius on the con-
strlction Of defensive works tho barri-
cadc was soon terminated, and the Greek
professor retired. The master of the
college had witnessed this scene from u
window, and no sooner was M. Gustave
blanche inside the gate than he was
placed i'll d1rance vile, and he was kept
there till NJ. LcgrMld, three days later,
was dismissed.

One Blast Of His Buglc Horn.

A trumpeter of regiment stationed ut
the Cape Of Good Hope drank SO much
that he could not stand up, and in this
situation his companions carried him out
i'll the open air and laid him down to get
cool and sober. He soon fell asleep, and
Il wild beast happening along and think
ing him dead, lifted him up and carried
him off, expecting to have good meal
OF him. Tho fellow on awaking was
lorrorstr,lck to find himself in the
power Of fcrocious beast, who was
max ing off to the mountains with him as
fast us possible. But his fear brought
him t" his senses, and scizine his tr,lm-
pet, which hung about his neck, he
sounded Il terrible blast, ut which the
beast thinking he had !. dead man to
deal with, bcc'un" as much frightened
as the nn'n at his situation. Tie prey
was dropped anu c"ptor and captive,
equally alarmed, scampcrcd in opposite
directions as fast as possible
