Poor Poland.

Some think that the present is a good
opportunity for the Poles to secure their
independence by taking advantage of the
occupation of the Russian armies in
Turkey. But unfortunately the Poles,
with all their gallantry and courage, are
an essentially anarchic people, other
wise they would never have been as a
nation blotted from the map of Europe.
It's not so very long ago that Prussia
and Russia, now SO gigantic and domi-
neering in the affairs of the Eastern
hemisphere, were insignificant countries
compared with Poland, which, had it not
been for its incurable internal dissen-
sions and its absurd political institutions,
would have been to-day the great power
OF Eastern Europe. What can the Poles
do against Germany, Austria and Russia?
What outside power would help them If
it could, or could if it would? Every
Polish revolt has thus far only been the
beginning Of a tragedy. Neither France
nor England can do anything for Poland.

sThe Conflict of Ages"

Men differ on. nearly every issue. There have
always been opposite parties in politics and re-
igion, though the measures fought over one
day may be universally adopted at another, and
those sacrificed regarded as heroes and mar
tyrs. Medicine has also been subject to revo-
lutionary disturbances. When Drs Harvey and
,Fenner announced their discoveries, they were
held IN contempt andridicule by an incredulous
and ignorant public, yet to-day they are re-
ceived and honored by all as benefactors. When
DR.. Pierce announced his Discovery many
seemed to doubt, and were skeptical concerning
all medicines and doctors, but proof Of merit
has dispelled all doubt, and to-day the Golden
Medical Discovery is the standard remedy in
curing the most obstinate diseases of the liver
and blood, having almost entirely superseded
the old-tinle sarsaparllas by reason of its sllpe-
riCr merits.

cruel Boys Who Become Murderers.

It is set down as veritable fact and a
warning to boys, that George w.
Fletcher, a murderer and repeater, who
was hanged in Philadelphia on the 18th,
for a very cowardly murder, began his
vicious career at the early age of IL, by
cutting off the tails of pigs for amuse-
ment. The inferenceis that boys who
begin life in that manner will end it as
Fletcher ended his. And the inference
is not much out Of the way. The wanton
killing of innocent birds and the torture
of domestic animals for amusement cult
Yates hardness of heart and an indiffer-
ence that soon qualities man for any
criminal act. No doubt if all the dogs
to whose tails Fletcher tied tin canisters,
and all the cats that he illuminated with
turpentine, and all the pigs whose tails
he cut off, could rise in Judgment against
him, the verdict that he was served right
would be unanimous. The Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
should issue a tract setting forth
Fletcher's career as an awful example,
Cincinnati Commercial.

and the inhabitants of the earth shall

Froude saw pythons playing with the
ships cable. There are some large
snakes in the woods. One of his Natal
hosts told him that one night as he was
cantering down his avenue he saw, or
thought he saw, tree lying in the road.
He got off to remove it, when the tree
became alive and attacked him. He was
in evening dress, and had no weapon OF
any kind. The engagement lasted for
twenty minutes, when, getting tired Of
it, he made slip knot in his silk pocket
handkerchief, passed it over the python s
neck, and then, drawing it tight. he
jumped on his horse and dragged the
creature behind him into Durham.
There, as it seemed dead, he pulled it
into warehouse for the night. The
next morning on going to look at 1t he
found it had recovered not wish

past him and rolled into the forest. -

Misspelling Ones Own Name.

The late Duke Of Wellington, writing
his name in the albums Of some chill
dren, wrote it in one with a single |.
The little lady said, "Why, you don't
know how to spell your own name p
The Duke looked at it and laughed (this
was in 1852, and said, "My dear, you
take care of that signature, for it is the
only time in my life I ever made such a
mistake > but it was not, for he had SO
written it in the visitors book at Elton.
For many years Of his life he wrote his
name Wesley, not Wellesley. It is only
in the last hundred years that people
have become very exact in the spelling
of names. Sarah, Duchess of Marlbor-
ough, spelt her own maiden name in five
different ways.

experienced writer eve forget who) has
given us some capital advice as to the
practice of kissing. "Don't,' says he,
"kiss all over, as grasshoppers walk.
Don't kiss everybody, including nasty
little dogs, male and female. Don't
sit down to it. Stand up. You need
not be anxious to get in a crowd. Two
persons are plenty to corner and catch a
kiss. More persons spoil the sport.
Stand firm. 1t won't hurt after you're
used to it. Don't be in hurry. Provi-
dence will give you strength for the or
deal. Don't jab down on a beautiful
mouth as if spearing for frogs. Don't
grab and yank the lady as ii she was a
struggling colt. Don't muss her hair,
scrunch down her collar, bite her cheeks,
squizzle her rich ribbons, and leave her
mussed and rumpled. Take good aim
the lips meet, the eyes close, the heart
opens, heaven itself opens before you.
