LITTLE THINGS mar tin-boxes of homes are general the most happy and cosy. Little will iages are nearer to being atoms of a shattered paradise than any thing we know of. Little fortu- nes bring the most content, and little hopes the least disappoint- ment. Little words are the sweet. est to hear. Little charities fly further, and stay the longest on the wing. Little lakes are the stiIlest, little hearts, the fullest, and little farms the best titled. Little books are the most read, and little songs the most loved. And when nature would make anything especially rare and beautiful, she generally makes it little-little pearls. like diamonds, little dews, little girls and boys!
 St. Louis is the city of smells. It lay palpitating. gasping and stinking in the heat, it's popula- ton opencollared, sweaty. grimy, and with burnsihed. noses and hairy throats, down which the hissing lager poured in quick suc- cession of inundations. St. Louis is big, uncOuth, graceiess, outre, but not without a certain sort of individuality which commands respect. Walt. Whitman should have been born, by rights, in St. Louis. She missed the good, gray poet who sounds his barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world, but she has her Reavis. She also has her Mckee, and she has him in jail-nominalIy. She has many other people who ought to be in jail. She has more flies than any other city of the same size; more cheap eating-houses, which ac- count for the flies; more dead rats; more goats.-H1didp0pOLis Herald Letter,

mighty gyrations that the audience
was utterly overpowered and demon
allied; they broke and run. breaking
up the meeting and mourning over the
lost cause.
