wealth IL not Happiness.

The first mistake which is made by
most men is in making wealth the o0-
ject of their lives. But wealth, as we
know, does not give happiness. Veal
thy men do not, because of their
wealth. get happiness. The Wander
bilts, the Stewards and the AstOrs have
not been our happiest men. They are
not the typical men in the home; they
are rot the typical men in social life !;
they are not the typical men In the de-
lights of life, or in the progression of
learning, which perhaps yields the lin
est lows men can know. We can go
down lower still. and find the men who
have only one million or so. or a half
million. and they do not type the hap
piness of American homes. Go into
their houses. How splendid, how gOr-
geous, how gaudy they are, and yet
thew cannot rival the little homes in
the love of a husband and wife, in the
reverence of children for parents, III
the parents guardianship over chill
dren, In all the sweet happiness that
affection sprea,.s abroad like a fra
GRANGE through the chambers of our
houses. You know that alUIOst every
American gets wealth who chooses 70,
though he loses il again, perhaps; but
he gets it. Ii Is no great proof or
ability nor evidence of success for a
man to get wealth in this country and
this age. Now. then, it seems to US
that if a young man should picture to
himself rather quiet house, sunnily
placed on some hillside, with a stretch
of meadow in front, through which
courses a running stream, shaded by
pleasant trees, with loving wife, a
group of pleasant-faced and virtuOus
children, quietude of days and peace
fulness of nights, health and content
ment of mind, that would be much bet
ter than to set up fictitious standard
and strive necessarily for it as though
you must reach it or be utterly undone,

A Repentanf Lion.

In the beginning of the last century
there was in the menagerie at Cassel a
lion that showed an astonishing degree
of tameness toward the woman who had
the care of him. This went so far that
the woman, In order to amuse the COM
pany which came to see the animal,
would often rashly place not only her
hand, but even her head, between his
tremendous jaws. She had frequently
performed this daring act without suf-
fering injury; but once, having intro
duced her head into the lions mouth, /,
the animal made a sudden snap, and
killed her on the spot. Undoubtedly
this catastrophe was unintentiona, on
the part of the lion; probably at the
fatal moment the hair of the woman's
head irritated the lions throat, and
compelled him to sneeze or cough. This
snpposition seems to be confirmed by
what followed; for, as soon as the lion
perceived that he had killed his atten-
dant, the good-tempered and grateful
animal exhibited signs Of the deepest
melancholy; laid himself down BY the
side of the dead body, which he woulc
not suffer to be taken away from him
refused to take any food, and in few
DAYS pinned himself to death.

Love, the Magician.

Mid all the glamor that Love throws
over his chosen few, nothing is more
prettily absurd than the way in which
be mikes them appear in parts quite
foreign to their original characters. Ii
is so fine to see the selfish people be-
come generous under his magic spell;
the reserved ones, genial the taciturn,
talkative; the secretive natures, trans
parent; the sad ones, merry; and the
jovial ones just becomingly touched
With an agreeable melancholia! One
natural consequence of this favored con-
dition is that they nearly all become the
most arrant match-makers. They will
sometimes pair of, in fancy, each un-
mated man and woman of their acquain-
tance in moment; so anxious are they
to get every available person into what
the prosaic, cynical and worn world
calls their FOOLS Paradise; and so true
is it that one touch of sweet natural love
makes them feel akin to the whole
world, and ready to say to every man
"My brother." and to every woman
"My sister," "Now, just to think OF

The TIVE Birds Nests,

Two men were neighbors, and each
of them had a wife and several chill
dren, and only his labor to support
them.-One of these two men was trou-
bled in mind, saying: "If die, or fall
sick, what will become of my wife and
my ehildrens"
And this thought never left him. 1t
gnawed his heart as worm gnaws the
fruit In which 1t is concealed.
Now, although the same thought had
come to the other father, he had not
dwelt upon it; "for," said he, "GOd
who knows all, will also watch over
me, and over my wife, and over my
children" And this one lived peace
fully, while the first did not enjoy an
instant of rest or Of inward joy.
One day as he was working In the
fields, sad and cast down on account of
his fear, he saw some birds enter bush,
fly out again, and then soon come back
again. Having approached the place,
he saw two nests placed side by side,
and In each one several little birds,
newly Matched and still without feath-
ers. And when he returned to his
work, from time to time he raised his
eyes and watched these birds, who went
and came, bearing food to their little
ones.
Now, at the moment when one of the
mothers was returning with her beak
full, vulture seized il, bore it upward,
while the poor bird, struggling vainly
under its grasp, uttered piercing cries.
At this sight, the man who was work
ing felt his soul more troubled than be-
fore. "For," thought he, "the death
of the mother is the death of the chill
dren. Mine have only me to depend
on; what will become of them if fail
them?" And all the day he was gloomy
and sad, and during the night he did
not sleep. The next day, on his re-
turn to the fields, he said to himself =

ones. Several without doubt, have al

bush and looking, he saw the little ones
in good health; not one seemed to have
suffered.
Astonished at this, re hid himself, to
observe what happened. And after
awhile he heard light cry, and saw
the second mother bearing in haste the
food that she had gathered, and she dis
tributed to all the little ones impartislly,
and there was enough for all, and the
orphans were not abandoned in their
misery. And the father who had dis
trusted Providence, recounted in the
evening to the other father what he
had seen. And the other said to him:
--"Why make yourself uneasy? God
never abandons his children. His love
has secrets that we know not of. Let
us believe, let us hope, let us love, and
let us pursue our way in peace. Ii l
die before you, you will be the father
of my children; if you die before me, |
will be the father of yours. And if We
both die before they become of age to
provide for their necessities, they will
have for their father the Father who is
i'm the Heavens"

A Cripple Factory.

Some years ago Professor Ember of
tine Medical College at Prayne applied
TO the Austrian chief of police at Vienna
for assistance in ferreting out and
bringing to justice the most monstrous
society of criminals that ever existed.
The required support was extended
him, and the patient work of a detect
i've, added to that of the professor him
self, eventually achieved the desired
end. A month ago body Of police
made descent upon the headquarters
of the criminals, and their trial is at
present pending in the Imperial Courts.
The story which the facts ELECTED by
this trial tells us Is worthy of a place
in Dante's "Inferno." The widest
dream Of distempered nightmare
never painted a picture so fraught with
horror.
On the first day of the trial bowling
mob endeavored to tear the malefactors
into piecemeal and it was only found
possible to continue the investigation
by garrisoning the court-rooms with
soldiers calling out two regiments of
horse to protect the criminals on their
way from the court to their prison.
The tavern of the "GolJen Omelette"
is situated close under the fortificatiOn
walls of the city of Radna. Its pro-
prietor, Trouilleson, is man of gigant-
ic stature, an old soldier of the Austri-
an army, who was blinded by the ex-
plosion of cannon while firing salute
from the forts at Trieste. Returning to
his native city with his mistress, a fine
looking woman of The Volga, he started
the house of call for beggars, which he,
up to few weeks ago, directed and
made money out of. The house is a
long, low rambling structure, monde
script of brick, stone, and wood, and
when descended on by the police,
served as a shelter for nearly two hun
dred men, women and children, all of
whom with the exception Of perhaps a
dozen, were professional beggars.
Upon the arrest of its host, he was dis
covered to be worth in money deposited
in the Imperial Bank, over 100000, an
enormous sum for the country in which
he lived. How this money was obtained
is the crowning horror of the entire af-
fair.
Antoine Cherguille, nicknamed the
'P..ayer," is the brother of Trouilleson's
mistress. Among the frequenters of
the "Golden Omelette" he is called the
'Oparateur." He is man over fifty,
and for the last thirty years of his life
has be n in the business of manufactu-
ing cripples. From the evidence given
at the trial, which is likely to send him
to the guillotine, his method of proceed
ure Is as follows:
The members of a gang of kidnappers,
organized by his sister and her sight
less paramour, have for the last twenty
years been engaged in stealing children
from the various cities of the Empire.
These unfortunate little ones were
brought to tie headquarters of Radna,
where they passed into the merciles:
hands of the "Operateur."
He took charge of them in a separate
section of the inn. where, assisted by
couple of surgeons, whose vices had re
duced them to his own level, and by
his own knowledge of anatomy-for h
had studied the art in his youth-h'

Every human being has a mission to
perform. Every man has part to act
in the worlds great drama-one of un-
speakable importance. But how few
are there who come fully up to its STAN
dard, and endeavor by divine assistance
to fulfil it. Man was created for noble
purpose, endowed with an immortal
mind, and is capable Of performing a
good work. Consider how great may
be the influence of a single individual,
either for good or evil. If we have been
influential in reforming one, a being
made in the image of God, but sadly
misled by the communicating influence
of vice, we have performed a good work.
There are various ways In which good
may be accomplished, but when good
resolution is formed, the work is too Of
ten begun with lack OF confidence and
perseverance, and impatient to accom-
plisk the undertaking, we despair at the
first difficulty. This should not be, but
with more faith, the more distant the
day of reward, the harder we should
labor and not let our arms become pal
sled because we do not meet with imme-
diate and large results of our labor, but
In time or eternity we shall receive the
reward.
Much good may be done with the pen,
and how much good has been done In
this way, by which the influence of
many still live while they have long
since gone TO their final resting place.
But we would not have you vainly am
bilious to render your name immortal, ,
thinking to make speck in the world
by figuring in the papers, or assume the
importance of fly that imagined itself
turning the wheel upon which it was
only turning round. But whatever
you do let it be done TO the glory OF
God, and remember that ''He that con-
verteth the sinner from the error of his
way, shall save soul from death, and
shall hide multitude of sins"

The Northern Lights.

In Spitzbergen the lights are accom-
panied by faint cracking noise, while
near the mouth of the Ienisei, on the
other hand, the noise is SO loud, accord
ing to the natives, that reindeer and
other animals are frightened at it. In
Turuchansk the sound Is not heard, and
in Francis Joseph Land the Austro-
Hungarian expedition remarked that IL
was heard only at such tunes as the
Northern Lights appeared In the South
ern part of the heavens. Franklin S
opinion was at first that the noise pro-
ceeded from the light but subsequently
he considered that the causes OF II
were terrestrial. Wrangel had few op-
portunities of seeing the Northern
Lights, but he was not all clear that
they were accompanied by any sound;
while Lomonossol, who visited Spitz-
bergen, was distinctly of the opinion
that they were so accompanied. A
marty of eight, who were crossing the
trial Range in about 66 degrees North
latitude, heard cracking noise like
that of electricity at the very moments
that the lights were most intense. A
former Governor of TobOlsk, too, in
formed NJ. Sidoroff thas he had twice
heard uhis peculiar noise. once In the
Gulf of Obi, and once in Obdorsk. NJ.
Sidoroff enumerated other instances,
and drew conclusions from them that
the Sea of Kara or the Gulf OF Obl
formed the centre of strong electric
and magnetic currents; that eastward
of the Gulf of Yenisei and westward O1
Noyaya Zemlya the sound decreased ~
power, but that the Shetland Islands
formed an exception.-Lond0n Times.

Antiquity Of Iron.

According to the Iron Age, wedge
or plate of iron has been found imbedded
in the great Pyramid, the indications
being that it must have been wrought
in the age of Cheops, placed by some
authorities so far back as 500 years
ago. This makes the use of iron about
:, 500 years more ancient than ii is sup
posed to be, and affords opportunity for
explaining the cutting of the sharp and
well-defined bieroglyphics on porphyri,
granite and other hard stones employed
in the construction of Egyptian pyra-
mids, temples, and tombs. How these
could have been cut before the age of
iron has been puzzling question to
many. Further investigation may show
iron to have been in use 5000 years

Effects ofImpatfence.

Nothing more incapacitates man for
the lead than impa;ience. No consti-
tutionally impatient man, who has in
dulged his tendency, ever gets to the
bottom of things, or knows with any
nicely the standing, disposition and
circumstances of the people amongst
whom he is thrown. Certain salient
points he is possessed of, but not what
reconciles and accounts for them. Some
thing in him-an obtrusive self, or a
train of thought, or liking and anti
pathies-will always come between him
and an impartial judgment. Neither
does he win confidence, for he checks
the coy, uncertain advances which are
the precursors Of il. We doubt If 4
thoroughly impatient man can read the
heart, or be fair critic, or understand
the rights of any knotty question, or
make himself master Of any difficult
situation. The power of waiting, de
liberating, hanging in suspense, is nec-
essary for all these-the power of stav-
ing off for considerable periods of time
merely personal leanings.

Life at Oxford Univer.fty.

The London Daily Telegraph says:
Oxford Is at this moment in the full
swing of academic life. The notice
boards on every buttery-hatch are
crowded with announcement of lec-
lures, classes and other University ar
rangements for the better promotion of
religion, education and learning Early
in the morning chapel bells summon
studious youth to matutinal devotion; !;
later begin the various college lectures.
All at play the young barbarians are,
from about in the afternoon until 6.
Some are on the river, rushing wildly
up and down between Iffley and Folly
Bridge in craft of structure so subtle
and attenuated that the oarsman in his
seat resembles nothing so much as
Abaris poised on his arrow. Others
are engaged in the.tennis court study
ing the mysteries of ''cut," 'force"
and "yolley" or are intent on the side
stroke at billiards; or, astride a sturdy
hack from some well-known livery
stable, are taking brisk gallop to
Thame or Woodstock, or even Walling-
ford; while another set, in light uni
form of many colors, are busy on foot
ball. Lastly, few are making the
most of precious time, devoting to what
is technically known as 'mug" hours
which would be perhaps more profita-
bly, spent in fair relaxation and amuse-
ment. So the afternoon RUS its course
until the bell sounds the summons for
hall and the familiar joints make their
appearance. Hall over, the academic
day is practically concluded. 1t Is not
until dinner is finished that the true
character of the Oxford undergraduate
begins to betray itself. Some men
march steadily from hall to their rooms
and devote the evening to study.
Others seek some congenial haunt,
where "loo" or "Van John" are being
briskly pushed, or where 'sshell out"
or 'black pool, or some equally haz-
ardous combination of skill and chance
is dividing Trojan against Greek. Wine
parties-where but little wine is drunk
and an enormous amount of confec-
tionery and ices is eaten-detain others.
There are those, again, who belong to
Shakespeare clubs or chronological
clubs, or to some mystic brotherhood
which burns incense and recites obso-
lete devotion in obsolete Latin, and the
members of which are commonly be-
lieved TO scourge one another by way
of penance on all black-letter days.
