How a Man Hunts for Clean Clothes.

Did you ever see man try to find
a clean shirt or Il handkerchief, or
something in the bureau drawer where
his wife keeps her linen? 1t mostly
happens when he is in a hurry, when
he has got his fireworks temper on,
and his wife has got the baby on her
lap, or she is up to the elbows in
dough.
He finds the white arrayed in such
symmetrical layers as only n woman
after long practice can accomplish, and
he dives in a good deal as he would
fish for nubs of kindling in barrel
of shavings, pitching every thing right
or lett on the floor; meanwhile, as he
fails TO get the desired article, stewing
and swearing and offering up selecced
expressions OF relief to his feelings in
suppressed tone Of voice, and vowing
in way especially designed to reach
the ears of his wife, "that it beats
the uld-what's his ame?-a thing
can't be put where it can be found
About this time the wife yells out
from below that the article sought is
right at the top, when he sarcastically
wants to know if she supposes he has
"got no eyes,
And then he gathers everything up
in bunch and rams them back any
how, just as he cen grab them in say
age handfuls, tearing around an jerk
ing thinks all over with nervous
looseness. Then he sings out in sort
of distracted way, as if addressing no
one in particular, "that he can always
find anything he needs at his place of
business in a moment; that he keeps a
place for everything, and everything
in its place."
Just about the time he has worked
himself into great worry Of boiling
over impotence, and got the whole
room in litter, his wife glides in and
lays her hand on the missing article.
right in the drawer. where he had
jerked it out and rammed il back
again, in that quiet way woman has
of maddening cholsric husband into
a fit state for the lunatic asylum.

Enthusiasm of Great Men.

Would the scientists who have
turned the world upside down with
their theories and discoveries ever
have accomplished what they have
done if enthusiasm had not led them
on untiringly in their researches? No
finer, nobler instances can be cited
than Prof. Agassiz What patient
ihoroughness of investigation! What
passionate devotion to truth What
reverent recognition of Supreme
Power governing all the great forces of
the universe! A sad day for the
world when that noble head was laid
low in death. and the nobler heart, that
had beat so long and so truly in the in
terests of science, was hushed forever.
And what a rare example OF unhinch
ing devotion to ones selfappointed
life work has DIR. Livingstone left the
world! In the interests of science,
and the higher interests of humanity,
how he persevered in the face Of OBJ
stacles that would have utterly quench.
eda ordinary enthusiasm The treach-
cry of natives, the deadly miasma OF
those African marshes, the fierce heat
of torrid sun, and the hunger of the
best affections OF a noble nature for
the dear delights of family and ONE,
had no power to turn him from his
chosen task. His zeal only went out
with his last breath. He never yielded
but to death, the conqueror of all. 1t
was fitting that England should have
brought back, with such honors, this
intrepid, heroic missionary explorer,
and laid him to rest with her most H.
lustrious dead. Enthusiasm lends
wings to principle. Straight onward,
unswervingly, will principle take a
truly noble mind; but inspire it with
enthusiasm, and it is like putting spurs
to a mettled steed. The zealot-and
the enthusiast is in one sense zealot
never leaves his work. He does
not know what it is to live, nor is there
any eud to his labor. He goes on,
ever Inspiring and being inspired,
until the presumably impossible be-
comes fact.

What it Is to be a Geni0us in Persia.

fla man gets reputation in Persia
for excellence of skill in a handicraft,
the shah, it is said. sends for him to
work for the court at starvation
wages. Some time ago a potter in
khoressan succeeded in manufacturing
a sort of porcelain resembling china,
and his fame sson reached the court.
When the shah sent for him. the poor
fellow, knowing his fate, sold all he
had, scraped all the money together he
cold tget, to raise a bribe for the
prime minister, and entreated them to
tell the king that the right man had
run away, and he had been put under
restraint.by mvtake. The minister
pocketed the bribe and had the potter
released, who vowed he would never
make bit of china, or attempt any
kind of improvement.
