Little by Little.

Ii you are gaining little every day
be content. Are your expenses less
than your income SO that, though it be a
little, you are constantly accumulating
and growing richer and richer every
day? Be content so far as concerns
money, you are doing well. Are you
gaining knowledge every day? Though
it be little by little, the aggregate of the
accumulation, where no day is allowed
to pass without adding something to the
stock, will be surprising to yourself.
Solomon did not become the wisest man
in the world in a minute. Little by
little-never emitting to. learn some
thing. even for single day-always
reading, always studying o little
between the time of rising up in the
morning and lying down at night-this
is the way to accumulate o full store
house of knowledge. Finally, are you
daily improving in character Be not
discouraged because it is little by little.
The best men fail far short of what they
themselves would wish to be. 1t is
something, it is much if you keep good
resolutions better to-day than you did
yesterday, better this week than you
did last, better this year than you did
last year. Strive to be perfect, but do
not become downhearted SO long as you
are approaching nearer and nearer to the
high standard at which you aim. Little
by little, fortunes are accumulated
little by little knowledge is gained
little by little character and reputation
are achieved.

The Chinese Lantern Trade.

During the last two OF three years a
large aud regular demand for Chinese
lanterns has been created in this country,
and the sale of these articles now con-
stitutes one of the most important, il not
the most important branch of the busi-
ness of dealer in pyrotechnics. This
has been especially true this season, when
the demand for ordinary " fireworks
has been insignificant, but for Chinese
lanterns it has been larger than ever be-
fore. Garden parties, which are becom-
ing very popular, are profitable source
of income to the manufacturers OF
Chinese-lanterns, as is also The custom
now in vogue at some of the waterin 6
places of having grand illumination
once or twice each season. On two
different occasions this summer Martha's
Vineyard has called upon Boston dealers
for Is. 900 lanterns for single evenings
illumination.
The greater part of the Chinese
lanterns" are made in this country, in
the vicinity of New York, or in Germany,
and as they have been in such active re-
quest of late years much ingenuity has
been expended IN producing them IN the
most attractive and convenient, and at
the same time the cheapest. forms.
The result of these ingenious efforts has
been the manufacture of paper lanterns,
soma of which are surprisingly well
adapted to the purposes for which they
are designed, others being marvelously
cheap, and many combining both of these
desirable qualities to some extent.
Pretty Ohinese-lanterns of cylindrical
shape, and perhaps twelve inches long
and four or five inches in diameter when
in use, but capable of being compressed
into about one-twelfth of their Ordinary
length for transportation, are sold as low
as $6 per hundred; and large, gorgeously
decorated globes, selling at $40 to $50
per hundred, are constructed with wire
frames so as to be capable of being
folded into the merest fraction of their
usual space. e.--Boston Commercial Bat-

Johnny Stands by His Brother.

Little Johnny's mother took him on
her lap after breakfast and made him
promise that he would always be kind
to his little brother. He solemnly vowed
to stand by him under the most adverse
circumstances, and even intensified his
pledge with the statement that if Browns
ugly SOW across the way should attempt
to attack his infant brother, he would
wipe the animal completely off the face
OF the earth. Then he went out to the
barn and saw the man of all work wash
the carriage with the hose. To his ju-
venile mind it seemed that there was no
pleasure that he would more keenly en-
Joy than to get hold of that hose and
squirt wafer about the premises, and as
soon as lie was left to his own devices he
did SO. Pretty soon shis dear little
brother came toddling along, and it oc-
Cured to johnny that it would be good
idea to wash off the little shaver as the
hired man had done with the carriage.
Never once did he consult the little baby
concerning the matter, but with the
faithless promise of a pound of candy he
persuaded him to stand up in the barn
and then leveled the hose at him. The
first charge knocked the infant little
less than ten feet into the air, and filed
his ears, eyes and nose and shoes with
water, while the wee "wictim" filed
the air with cries Of distress. Then
Johnny closed the barn door till the " lit
tie brat" as he affectionately termed
him, had ceased "squallin'," and when
his mother came to the door to see If her
little ones were all right he smiled
swsetly on her and told her that Bobby
was enjoying himself in the barn.
Again he slyly opened the door and
brought volley after volley of water to
bear on his near and dear little relative.
Finally, after he had half drowned him,
he became 80 excited with the sport that
he neglected to close the door with his
usual promptitude, and the wall of the
little urchin fell on the fond mothers
ear. While he was still aiming the
heavy stream at the powerless victim
who, overcome with emotions of distress,
was dancing up and down like bear on
hot griddle, his mother came hurriedly
up behind him and jerked him into q
proper attitude to place across her knee,
but he kept firm hold of the hose, and
as he wheeled about he threw ten barrels
of water ON his gentle parent, most of
which struck her in the face. AS he fell
across the maternal knee the hose be-
came so entangled that his PROSTATE form
rested on it and itexploded. Every sec.
ond his mothers hand came down on
him like trip hammer. Then after the
blow his body would recoil, and the
pressure being taken off the hose the
water would strike him on his little heav-
ing bosom. Indeed the spanks were
relief, for only when his body was driven
firmly down against the hose by the
blows was the water shut off. Finally
the three people wended their weary way
into the house. Compared with them,
three drowned rats would have been q
cheerful spectacle. To-day three men,
berc of that Monroe street family have
the dreadfullest cold ever heard Of, and
the faithless Johnny was the cause of it.
