Little Truthful.

You've all read "Grimm's Fairy
Tales, or, if not, you'll be pretty sure
to read them before you are much older.
They are very apt to be found in Christ
mas stockings, and being the produc-
tion of two German brothers, who know
well how to delight young folk, they
are always very welcome. Jack heard
the pretty schoolma'a am one day repeat
to her outdoor class pretty story that
old Jacob Grimm, the brother who put
these stories in a book, tells about
one of his little readers.
He was told one fine morning that q
little girl wished to see him in his re-
ception-room, as she had something to
say to "Herr Professor"
Stepping down to the room, he found
a little miss, looking very grave and
very wise.
sis it thou" she said, "who hast
written these fine fairy tales ?"
"Yes, my dear; my brother anil |
have written them"
"Then the tale of the clever little
tailor is thine; and it says at the end
that he who will not believe it must pay
a thaler Ga German dollar)."
"Yes, have written that too"
"Well, sir, 1 do not believe it.
"Ah p'
''Here, sir, is quarter of a thaler.
1t is all l have now, but 1 will call and
leave the rest at some other time"
The kind old man laughed, and de-
clined the quarter-thaler. He offered,
however, to see the honest little one
home, and have no doubt that the two
became in time the best of friends. -

Sagacity Ofihe Partridge.

An interesting instance of the sagacity
with which the partridge will protect
its young is given by Mr.. Henshaw of
the Government Survey west of the one
hundredth meridian. While riding
through pine woods a brood of par
tridges containing the mother and eight
or ten young about a week old, was
come upon so suddenly that the feet of
the foremost mule almost trod on them.
The young rose, few few yards, and
dropping down, were in an instant hid
in the underbrush. The mother mean
while began some very peculiar tactics.
Rising up, she fell back again to the
ground as if perfectly helpless, and
initiated the actions of a wounded bird
so successfully that for a moment it was
thought she had really been trodden
upon. Several of the men, completely
deceived, attempted to catch her, but
she futtered away, keeping Just out of
reach of their hands until they had been
enticed ten to twelve yards of when
she rose and was off like bullet. Her
tactics had successfully covered the re-
treat OF her young.

The Principle OF Good Manners.

A writer in the AdUonce says 1.-THE
giving of compliments, if it be at all
well done, is very pleasant habit. /
mean truthful, hearty compliments. II
you see a man doing excellent, don't be
afraid to tell him so with ordinary
good sense, and regard for the truth,
one need not fear becoming fiatterer,
or Extensively fullsome. 1t is very
pleasant when We do well to sometimes
have cur well-doing recognized by
others. So, then, if you would be
agreeable, make the practice of seeing
the good in other people, and of some
times telling them that you see it. But
besides the positively pleasant things
by word or act, ninety nine hundredths
of the unpleasant things that are said
and done are entirely unnecessary, and
il one does well only IN a negative way
by invariably refraining from the
ninety-n he has made no small ad-
vance in the art of being agreeable.
"Put yourself in his place, is a capi-
tai motto. "Thou shalt love thy neigh.
Dor as thyself."

Measuring by Sound.

An instrument for measuring distan-
ces Dy sound hiss been invented recently
by Major de Boulenge, of the Belgian
army. 1t consists of glass tube hav-
ing graduations along its length repre-
senting distances measured. The tube
is closed at its extremities, and is filled
with liquid in which is metallic trav-
eler, formed of two disks united by a
central rod. The diameter of the disks
is a little less than that of the tube, so
that when the latter is vertical the trav-
eler will descend with a slow and uni
form motion. Knowing the velocity
of sound and that of travel, 1t is easy
to construct the distance scale. In OPP
Grafton, the edge of one disk is brought
to the 0 mark, and the instrument be-
ing held horizontally. the flash of the
cannon, for example, is noted at that
instant the telemeter is turned to YER
tical position, and so held, the traveller,
of course, descending meanwhile, until
the sound is heard, when it is again
brought horizontally. The position OF
the traveller denotes the distance to be
read on the scale. 1t is stated that,
during the course Of official experiments
at the Belgian artillery school, the IL
strument, in estimating distances OF
3, 200 yards, did not make over twenty.
one yards of error.

4 Blush.

What is there more mysterious than
blush, that a single word or look or
thought should send that inimitable
carnation over the cheek like the soft
tints of the summer sunset Strange
it is, also, that the face is capable OF
blushing, that the hand or foot does
not turn red with modesty or shame
any more than the glove or sock that
covers them. 1t is the face that is in
heaven. The blush of modesty that
woman's face when she awoke in Eden
sunny land still fingers with her fair
daughters. They caught it from the
rose, for all roses were first white but
when Eve plucked one, the bud seeing
her own fair face-more fair than the
fiowers-blushed and cast its refec-
ton on her velvet cheeks.
The face is the tablet OF the soul
wherein it writes its actions. There
may be traced all the intellectual phe.
nomena with a confidence amounting
to a moral certainty. If innocence and
purity look outward from within none
the less do vice. intemperance, and
debauchery make their indeiible i'm
pressions upon it. Idiocy, rage, COW.
ardice and passion leave deeper marks
even than the virtues of modesty,
truth, chastity and hope. Even beauty
grows more beautiful from the pure
thoughts that arise within it.

More Spirits.

And now the strange happenings have
begun to exhibited themselves in an
other Vermont village, if We are to be-
of the Troy Press. The story, however,
is so strange, and it has such suspi-
cious look, that we would advise our
readers not to place that implicit faith
in its statements which they would had
they witnessed the phenomenon them
selves. The following is the story. We
give it for what it is worth "Pownal
is at present very much excited about a
supernatural phenomenon. For about
five weeks stones have been falling on
farmer P. g house and other buildings.
1t can be accounted for in no natural
way, and it is supposed to be the work
of spirits. They are falling both night
and day, but are most plentiful at night.
Crowds of people are there every day
to witness this wonderful phenomenon.
1t has only been known by outsiders a
few DAYS, as the farmer and his family
tried to keep it q secret. The stones
are mostly small, from the size of an
egg to four or five inches in diameter,
and strike the house with great velocity,
SO as to tear nearly through the shingles
or clap boards. Sometimes they strike
the roof near the caves, and then slowly
climb up the roof over the peak and roll
off the other side. On Thursday after
noon q stone weighing over twenty
pounds fell into the yard and indented
itself in the hard frozen earth over
three inches. Several strong men tried
to throw the stone on the ground to
make like indentation, but they could
hardly make an impression on the
frozen ground. The house is situated
about thirty rods from the village
