Warming TO skaters.

A large pond Of ice was near the
schoolhouse where one Miss c.
"taught the young idea" To warn
the boys against the danger of
amusing themselves upon the "fro-
zen element" one day she related
the following story:
1.-TWO young men, who were very
fond of skating, went out on the
river one moonlight night. One
of them placed sticks where he
thought there were air-holes; but
the other, in shating backyard,
passed the boundary, the ice broke,
and he went under. His body was
found q long time afterward by
some boys who were playing on the
river bank
Here the excitement in the school
room became intense, and one boy,
about eight years Of age, who, with
mouth wide open, hair on end, and
eyes dilated to their utmost extent,
had been literally Swallowing" the
narrative, started up, an anxiously
inquired:

whether he wanted anything else,

pronounced "all right" Handing
back the bottle to the peddler, the
sheriff said, 81 don't know that l

piled the Yankee, "bein' it's you,
sheriff, I'll give you twenty-five
cents for it," and after purchasing
it at that low figure, he said to the
sheriff, shave you got peddler's

Liebig has shown that oatmeal is
almost as nutritious as the very
best English beef, and that 1t is
richer than the wheaton bread in
the elements that go to form bone
and muscle. Professor OF Edin-
burg, during some twenty years,

height, and also tested the strength,
of both the arms, and loins of the
students in the University-a very
numerous class and of various ma
tioualities, drawn 70 Edingburg by
the fame of bis teaching. He found
that in height, breadth of chest
and shoulders, and strength Of arms
and loins, the Belgians were at the
bottom of the list; a little above
them the French and highest OF
all the Scotch and Scotch-lrish,
from Ulster, who, like the natives
of Scotland, are fed in their youn-
ger days with at least one meal a
day of good oatmeal. An exchange
remarks that a very good drink is
made by putting about two spoon
fuls of meal into some water. The
Western hunters and trappers con-
slider it the best of drinks, as it is al
once nourishing, unstimulating and
satisfying.

An auction of unmarried ladies
used to take place in Babylon. ain
every district says the historian,
"there assembled on a certain day
of the year all the modest maidens
of a manageable age. The most
beautiful was first put up, and the
man bid the highest or largest sum
of money gained possession of her.
The second in personal appearance
followed, and the bidders gratified
themselves with handsome wives
according to the depth Of their
purses. But, alas, it seems there
were in Babylon some ladies for
whom no money was likely to be
offered, yet these also were dis
posed of, so prudent were the Bah
ylonians. When all the maidens
were sold, the crier ordered the
most deformed to stand up, and af
ter he had demanded who would
marry her with small sum, she
was at length adjudicated to the
man who would be satisfied with
the least. In this manner, the mon
ey arising from the sales of the
handsome served as a portion to
those who were of disagreeable
looks or had any other imperfec-
ton. This custom prevailed three
hundred years before Christ"
