JUVENILES COLUMN.
THE FIRST PARTY.

Miss Annabel McCsriy
Was invited to u party.
"lour company from four to ien,' the invi'
tation said:
And the maiden was delighted
To think she was invited
To sit up till the hour when the gfolks
went to bed.
The crazy little midget
Ran and told the news TO Bridget,
Who clapped her hands, and danceda jig,
to Annsbeps delight.
And said, with accents hearty,
"'T will be the swatest party
If ye'fe there yerself, me dsrlintl wish 1t
was tonight"
The great displsy of irilling
Was positively killingl
And, oh, the little bootiss and the lovely
sash SO wide!
Aud the gloves SO very Cunningl
She was altogether stunning"
And the whole M,Carty family regarded her
with pride.
They gave minute directions,
With cspious interiections
OF "Sit up straight !" aud Don't do this, or
that,-'t would be absurd"
But, what with their caressing,
And the agony OF dressing,
Miss Annabel McCarty did mt hear q single
word.
There was music, there was dancing,
And the sight was most enhancing,
As if fairy land, and horsl band, were hold.
ing jubilee;
There was laughing, there was pouting
There was singing, there was shouting
And old and young together made a carni
val of glee.
Miss Annabel McCarty
Was the youngest nj the party
And every one remarked that she was sesu.
tifully drest;
Like doll she sat demurely
On the sofa, thinking surely
1t would never do for her to run and frclic
with the rest.
The noise kept growing louder;
The naughty boys would crowd her;
al think you'rev very rude indeedW the little
lady said;
And then, without a warning,
Her home instructions scornin.
She screamed: 81 want my supper and
want to go to bed"
Now big folks, who are older,
Need not laugh at her, nor scold her,
For doubtless If the truth we're known,
we've often felt Inclined
To leave the ball, or party
As did Annsbel McCarty,
But we had MT hslf her courage, sRJ we
couldn't speak our mind

Effect of Pain on the Heart.

In paper sent in by DIR. +. Franck
of the academy of science, of Paris,
the effects OF painful excitement on
the heart was discussed ,on the strength
Of experiments executed during the
months of February to August. The
starting point of these experiments
lies in the fact, accidentally noticed, of
a prolonged interruption of the beat
ing Of the heart and respiratory mo-
tions of the rabbit, under the nostrils
of which sponge, impregnatcd with
chloroform, was placed. This phenom.
enon, already discussed in various
ways by different psychologists is in
dependent Of chloroforIn, since any
acrid and volatile substance, such as
amonnia or acetic acid. will produce
he the same effect, and is only Il par.
ticular case of general law thus enun
ciated by DIR. CT. Bernard. "The
stopping Of the heart, or syncope, may
follow any violent or sudden disturbing
action of any nature whatever In
man, a great many intermittances of
the heart, S ncows, and some sudden
deaths. have no other caiise but
violent, painful impression, either
cerebral or peripheric, such as, for
instance, epigastrle confusions. But
these reflex actions, produced
on the region of the heart,
must be distinguished from the mere
mechanical disturbances, provoked by
z eat emissions Of blood caused By the
exiirpation Of tumor-, etc. There are
many contradictory opinions on this
matter, but our author affirms, from
his experiments, that the immediate
effect of painful impression is stop
page or slackening Of the throbbing
Of the heart If the principal sensi-
tive nerves be excited by various irri-
tants, the following general results will
be observed. Exciting the nostrls
with ammonia, acetie acid or chloro-
form is specially, but not, exclusively,
transmitted to The spinal bulb by the
trigimina; the heart receives the i'm
preston through the medium of the
pneumo- gastric nerves, and the effect
on the heart is proportional to the in
tensity of the excitement. All expert
ments concur in confirming the TACT
that the union between the trigimini
and the pueumo-ga trio nerves is real.
When pain is suppressed, chloral,
chloroform, ether, morphine, produce
by themselves no action on the heart;
but this is owing to the paralysis OF
the pneumo-gastric nerves caused by
these agents.

The Troubles of Childhood and Youth.

If children occasionally turn out to
be "torturations, their parents are
not uniformly guiltless of bringing
such result on themselves. What
with over-indulgence, or neglect, or it
may be hardness of discipline, there
is little wonder that c, ildren fall short
of expectations. Whtna child begins
TO cross examine its parents as to why
the fire burns, how his carte.de-visite
was taken, how many stars there are,
and such-grown-up Ignorance or went
of system too often laughs at him:
says that children should not ask tire.
some questions, and, as far as it can,
checks the inquiring spirit within him.
Little people should be seen and not
heard, is stupid saying, which makes
many Young observers shy of impart-
ing to their elders the things that ar
rest their attention, until they stop
learning and overcome their sense of
wondcr-their spur of all philosophy
from want of sympathy and en-
enlargement. And yet grown-uP peo-
pie should surely be aware that nature
has implanted in us desire to know
and to communicate knowledge, con-
sidering how very much most of us
love to randsrread.gossip Children
'nould gladly learn and teach;" but il
they are early snubbed, they will not
be glad to do either in after life.
If we only reflected how "queer"
everything must appear to a mind
newly arrived ON such an earth as ours,
children's questions would not appear
at all foolish. During the first four
or five years which is occupied in dis
tinguishing and naming the commonest
objects, perhaps children solve more
difficult intellectual problems than at
any future period Of their lives. How
keenly, then, must Young children feel
want of sympathy and encourage
ment,
An example Of the'physical misery
which "wrought by want of thought
as well as want of heart" we may al
lude to the Cant you be quiet y
which puts young children to the I'm.
nessary torture Of sitting still like "big
PEOPLE" Why do not parents reflect
that it is almost a physical impossible
ity for any young animal to remain
quiet for more than a few moments?
Then, as regards foods; some are too
prone to put in practice ascetic theories
in the rearing of their offspring, which
they shrink from as far as their own
personal conduct is concerned. And
yet, why should not appetite be a goca
guide for childhood as it is for animals;
as it is for infancy; as it is for every
adult who obeys natures laws?

The Greatest Wool-producing Country.

There can be no doubt that the CEN
sus of 1880 will prove incontestably
that this republic of ours is the great
est wool-producing country in the
world. Our latest figures are several
years old and make the total clip 200,.
600, 900 of pounds, while the Austria
liam estimate for 1876 is only l25, ,000,.
600 pounds ds-while our yield in 1870
was 1877, 100000 pounds. This inter
est is a steady-growing one, but great
cry was raised against the "wool tar.
riff" when congress undertook to pro-
toct the Americas wool grower. Since
lhsn the clip has become immense, and
Is really the main reliance Of the
Americal WOODEN factories. There are
still ali sorts of reasons for importing
foreign wool, just as there are for i'm
porting foreign iron, lead, cop.
per, salt, cotton goods, silks, etc.
Some want foreign coarse goods
because they are cheaper. Others
want special grades of foreign fine
wool But the equality Of American
wool is such as give our wooden goods
the command Of the home markets.
With our vast extent Of land, great
varieties Of soil and climate and large
developments of agricultural and pas
toral Interests, there is no grade or
quality OF wool We cannot produce, and
no good reason why we cannot com
pete with foreign wool in price. The
war gave great impetus to the pro-
duction OF wool and the manufacture
of wooden goods at home, and it has
been firmly held out and increased.

Australia, stopped to see one Of the
Fiji islands. While wandering about
one OF them turned a somersault, and
the native spectators were astonished
at the sight. Thereafter, the circus
men, discerning the opportunity for
fun, varied their walks by frequent
somersaults and grotesque contortions,
all the time maintaining sober faces and
the utmost gravity of demeanor. Null

they were missionaries sent TO teach
a religion in which somcrsaulis were a
