"Then," said the Prince, 81 will come

"Then," said the Prince, Il will come
tomorrow before the Congress meets"
Both gentlemen arose and the General
renewed the expression of his pleasure
at having seen man who was so well
known and so highly esteemed in
America.
General" answered the Prince, "the
pleasure and the honor are mine. Ger
many and America have always been in
so friendly relation that nothing de-
lights us more than to meet Americans,
and especially an American who has
done so much for his country, and whose
name is so much honored in Germany
as your own"
The Prince and the General walked
side by side to the door, and after shsk-
ing hands, the General passed into the
square. The guard presented arms and
the General lit fresh cigar and slowly
strolled home.
"I am glad have seen Bismarck" he
remarked. "He is man whose man

Minister Bayard Taylor gave recep-
tion to the General and the latter after
ward attended review directed by the
Crown Prince. Bismarck afterward
called on Mrs. Grant.

MGathv on MOthers.in.L Law.

The little breed of low-salaried puns-
ters who make what is called "humor !"
in decaying newspapers have one unfail-
ing butt-the mother-in-law. As if a
respectable son-in-law did not respect
his wife's mother, though from that
fruitful tree expecting his own increase
If Justice had her due and wit had any
Justice the butt would be the son-in-law,
that root of Adam, the first sneak.
Who but the son-in-law dislikes his
wife's mother because she is the visible
conscience of the household, reminding
him of his selfshness and neglect? As
long as the old lady is present he does
not 90 to the full length of his indifter-
ence and pitilessness Had his wife a
father instead of a mother present he
would not go half as far as he dare do
now, with only this patient old dam
still watching over Ter young. In a
state of really filial society it would be
the highest testimonial to man that
he was chivalrous to her who had borne
his wife, and seen with tender care the
recognition of her love for him in the
maiden child's behavior. How many
are the graves over which angels hover
of wives mothers! And when we know
that all our young wives are yet to be
perhaps, mothers-in-law like these, the
derided, shall we not say to thest
blasphemers of so many venerable ma
irons: "Who did beget ye? In wha
grin of Natures womb were ye ex
pressed ?'

A Man of Nerve,

A trainer of wild animals must be a
man of iron nerve, ard never show the
slightest fear. A trainer, long at the
business, told the following experience
to a reporter:
Of course / have been chewed up
some. Every man in my line of busi-
ness has to make up his mind to that.
See, both my arms and hands are ripped
and SCARED. When 1 was with that
branch show of Meyers circus, in
France, was bitten three times in two
months; pretty badly, too. 1t almost
discouraged me.
Once lion bit my left arm through
the wrist-making that scar-tore foul
deep gashes in my right arm with his
claws, scored some deep burrows down
my back, and in the. fight tore every
thing off me except part of my trousers
The blood just poured from me: but
1 got heavy iron club passed in to me
and belted that lion until he wa
thoroughly whipped. When I got ou
1 was so weak l could hardly stand; bu
it was the only way.
Go out of cage after an animal ha
bitten you, without giving it a sount
licking, and you can never go in again
without it's trying to bite you. 1t will
remember that it whipped you before.
You must never let your nerv
weaken, and take care that, though the.
muss up your flesh pretty bad, yol
don't give them chance to crunch you
bones. That may put you at thei
mercy; SO keep them from taking hold
They don't bite until they sink thei
claws in, SO look out to break loose quick
no matter how deep they clutch you.

Anecdotes Of Booth.

Booth once concluded an engagement
with a Manchester manager. Manchester,
manufacturing town, was devoted
largely to the production of buttons.
Booth appeared before his new audience,
determined to make q hit. We have
forgotten the name OF the play in which
he appeared-enough that he threw him-
self into it with his whole soul. But,
alas, the house would not come down"
His choicest efforts were thrown away,
and his heart began to sink within him,
and self-distrust to steal over him. At
last there came in the play a per-
sonal set to, into which Booth went with
such hearty zess, that the cheers
and shouts thus far repressed, broke out
in a perfect storm. Booth caught the
secret, and, forthwith, so belabored his
fellow-actor that he fairly yelled with
pain. The applause was unbounded.
Then Booth sat down, in his chair, and,
stretching his neck toward his audience,
with face on which was depicted the
most bitter contempt and disgust, ex.
claimed in a way Of his own" What
do you thinkof that, you bloody button
makers w He was obliged to leave the
stage as we'll as the city with mob Of
the button makers on his track
In New York, Booth was arrested one
evening (some fifty years since) in state
of alcoholic oblivion, and as he refused
to give any other name than that oi
Lucius Junius Brutus, he was sent by
Justice Wynans to the old Bridewell. In

The Rainbow.

The time of day at which a rainbow
appears is generally regarded by farm
ers, shepherds, and others accustomed
to outdoor work, as weather sign; thus,
if it appear in the morning it is looked
upon as the precursor of wet and stormy
weather, but if it appear in the even
ing, then it is thought to precede fine
weather; hence the following doggerel !:
"A rainbow in the morning,
Is the shepherds warning;
But rainbow at night
Is the shepherds delight"
Meteorologists tell us that there is
some truth in this popular notion, and
the reasons they give are these: A rain
bow in the morning is seen in the west
when the east is clear. 1t is indicative
of the advance of the rain cloud to.
ward the observer, and, moreover, from
the time at which it happens-morning
it points to the increasing moisture
of the atmosphere. Wet and stormy
weather is, the natural sequence of such
conjuncture of circumstances. Or
the other hand, when a rainbow is seer
in the evening, we have a reversal o
these circumstances, for the bow appear
in the east when the west is clear; tn
rain clouds are receding from the oh
server, and the atmosphere is becoming
dryer. Fine weather necessarily fol
