Artificial Flower.

Artificial flowers were hrt made by
Italians. and were, at best, clumsy iIai-
tAtions. The flowers, made of ribbons
OF various colors, gathered up, twisted
together, and fastened 20 wire stems,
very remotely resembled what they were
intended 10 initiate; aud at most, were
rude and unsatisfactory copies Of the
perfect, lovely and delicate creations OF
nature. In the course Of time feathers
were brought into use for the purpose;
and for securing the shapes Of the petals,
leaves and other portiops Of the anato.
my Of plants, were found much more
convenient and available than ribbons.
A difficulty, however, presented itself in
their refusal 20 take the colors necessary
for the correct imitation Of flowers, and
further than what was accomplished at
the time, ont of the plumage Of highly
colored birds, there was little progress
effected townrd the result desired. For
many wears the Italians were unriyalled
in the manufacture Of flowers, but have
found more than successful competition
in their work from their French neigh
bors; while in our country il has become
an important interest, especially in Ger
tain cities, From the plumage of the
native birds, the savages OF South Amer
leu have long been acquainted with the
process of artificial flower making; and
curious and attractive specimens of this
handiwork are frequently brought to us
by travellers.

A jewelers. joke.

Mr.. Smiley, the undertaken, got it
into his head the other day, that his eye
sight was not what il used 20 be, and
that pair of spectacles would be bene-
fetal to him as well as TO make him look
more venerable. So he proceeded 10
Mr.. Karat's iewelry store, in the next
block, to purchase the desired article.
The obhging Mr.. K displayed his
whole stock OF spectacles for his Gus
TONER'S inspection. Mr.. Smiley would
try on a pair, elevate his head, then
lower it, then look overthe tops OF them,
meanwhile holding newspaper before
him.
One pair was for younger eyes $50 he
said); another pair was for older eyes,
and so on until he had tried on all OF
Mr.. KArat's spectaeles. Not one pair
could he find that was suited TO his
sight
Now the patient Mr.. Karat was at
times fond of a joke, and informed Mr..
Smiley that he had q pair that he used
himself sometimes, and he might try
them on, and perhaps they would suit
him. Mr.. Karat took from the drawer
pair minus the glasses, and after
carefully wiping them inside and out,
adjusted them over Mr.. Smiley's pro-
boscis.
After going through the usual per
formance with his head, Mr.. Smiley
said
"Why, they seem better. | can see
as we'll with them as / could without
them twenty years ago. I'll take these.
They just suit my eyes.

snnerstItlon south Of the Eanator.

There are three great divisions of the
Indian family residing In the parts Of
South America which lie south of the
Equator; but though differing in Ian
guage. customs, and manners. they all
belong 10 the Aryan branch, and most
probably cqme across in numerous
migrations from Central Asia by the
Straits of Behring. With regard TO
religion, they believe in two gods. The
first is called by some Plllau; by others,
Cuchaucia,ru, or "the great god" He
is supposed 70 bear the human form,
but can make himself invisible. He is
the creator OF the world and author of
all that is good. The Indians never
assemble to worship him; he is sup
posed to be content with the respect
given 30 him in the heart of every indi-
vidnal. The other god is i" the spirit of
evil. ;" known a. Gualichu; to him every
sacrifice and offering is made 10 propiti-
ate his wicked designs. Not only do the
Pampa Indians believe in the immortal
ity OF the soul, but also in the doctrine
of metempsychosis; hence when burying
their dead, they always sacrifice over the
grave the favorite horse OF the dead man,

What Kills.

In the school, as in the world, far
more rust out than wear out. Study is
most tedious and wearisome TO those who
study least. Drones always have the
toughest time. Grumblers make poor
scholars, and their lessons are uniformly
"hard" and "too long" The time
and thought expended in shirking would
