"I knew of no other way to express

The African Paris.

In ancient times Egypt was the center
of art and science. 1t contained the
finest library in the world. France,
Germany and Italy are now visited by
those who wish to perfect themselves in
science and art, but time was when
Egypt was visited by the young men of
Greece and Rome to perfect themselves
in the learning and arts of the age, us
students now seek France and Germany.
For a long time Egypt has lain in almost
state of barbarism. The late viceroy
has, however, by his intelligence, genius
and energy, so stimulated progress
throughout his dominions that Egypt
bids fair to once more take her rank
among the most civilized portions of the
world. Cairo may in time become a
rival to Paris. In Cairo gas pipes have
been laid down in the principal streets,
and it is stated on reliable authority
that these streets are better lighted than
those of many European capitals. The
principal thoroughfares are supplied
with water mains, and good water is dis
tributed throughout the city. New
streets have been opened and narrow
ones widened; beautiful artificial lake
has been formed and surrounded with
iron ratings in a fashionable part of the
city which was formerly traversed by an
offensive ditch, and which was depos-
itory of garbage and rubbish. About
| the lake and within the railing have
been placed graveled walks, flower beds
stands for musicians, canOpies for theat-
rical representations and other amuse.

some houses are erected, with arcades

German inhabitants have been allowed
to build Protestant church, and piec,

for the same purpose. There is an oper;
house for italian opera, a theater fo
French plays and a hippodrome fo

These roads are shaded by acacia an,

How a Girl Killed a Deer.

A letter from Shohola, Pa. says:
Four or five miles back of this place, in
an old log cabin, lives Thomas Hender-
shot. He has a pretty daughter about
eighteen years of age. Clara Hender-
shot can row boat, shoot gun or trap
a bear as well as any man in the coun-
ty. A few days ago she started across
the lake-the Great Walker pond-to
visit a friend. She used light boat be-
longing to her father, and carried, as
was her custom, a small rifle slung across
her shoulder by a leather strap. w hen
nearly in the center of the lake she dis
covered object in the water, a short
distance off, and upon approaching
nearer found that 1t was large nVe-
pronged buck, which had been driven
in by dogs. She Immediately unslung
her gun and, after taking aim, fired.
The ball passed through the deer's neck,
making a painful wound. The animal
enraged, struck at the boat with its
front foot, completely shattering one
side of the fragile bark, which sunk,
leaving Miss HendershOt in the water
with the infuriated buck. She was
plucky and could swim well, and as the
deer came toward her she caught it by
the horns and plunged her hunting
knife into its neck killing it instantly.
She then called for help, and as none
arrived she swan to the shore, about a
quarter of mile, and hurried home.
She put on dry clothes, and procuring
another boat rowed out to where the
dead buck was floating and towed 1t
ashore. When dressed the animal
weighed $50 pounds. This is the seventh
deer Miss Hendershot has killed and she
feels quite proud of her last adventure,
which is the most thrilling she ever
had. A gentleman at this place intends
having the deer's head stuffed. and
Miss Hendershot will keep it as me
mento OF her struggle for life in the
| water.

An Argument.

AS, one by one, along life's flinty way,
The hopes OF youth iade in the heat and die,
And OF our prime the aspirations high
Remorseless circumstances crush and slay,
Then, "Coumge," to our lainting hearts we
say,
"Beyond this life the sunny uplands lie
Where these shall all be ours, again to try,
The bright ascent toward the perfect day"
Oh, land of the hereafter! can it be,
When to thy sacred keeping we commit
All our best treasures so confidingly,
Our dead, our hopes, our aspirations lit
With quenchless fire, that immortality
And thy fair plains are all myth, a cheat
H. T.. Starrett, in Good Company.

Two WAYS Of Pntiing II.

The Sultan awoke with stiled scream;
His nerves were shocked by fearful dreams
An omen of terrible import and doubt
His teeth in one moment all fell out.
His wisemen assembled at break OF day,
And stood by the throne in solemn array.
And when the terrible dream was told,
Each felt n shudder, his blood ran cold,
And all stood silent, in fear and dread,
And wondering what was best to be said.
AZ length an old soothsayer, wIinkled and
gray,
Cried, "Pardon, my lord, what have to say;
" 'Tis an omen OF sorrow sent from on high:
Thou shalt see all thy kindred de-"
Wroth was the Sultan; he gnashed his teeth,
And his very words seem to hiss and seethe,
AS he ordered thu wiseman bound with chains,
And gave him hundred stripes for his pains.
The wisemen shook as the Sultan's eye
Swept round to SEQ who next would try;
But one OF them, stepping before the throne,
Exclaimed, in a loud and joyous tone:
"Exult, oh head of a happy state
Rejoice, oh heir OF glorious fate!
"For this is the favor thou shalt win,
Oh Sultan--to outlive all thy kim"
Pleased was the Sultan, and called n slave,
And hundred crowns to the wiseman gave.
But the courtiers they nod, with grave, sly
winks,
md each one whispers what each one thinks
DWELL, can the Sultan reward and blame
Didn't both OF the wisemen ioretell the same?'
Quoth the crafty old Vizier, shaking his head
$50 much may depend on the way a thing
said"

What is Peat2

Immense stratum OF peat underlies
the city of Boston. Everybody ought
to know what peat is, but some don't
know. 1t is a spongy mass of vegetable
matter, the out-growth of swampy soils,
and is composed of matted roots, leaves
and stems of plants, the forms of which
are distinctly preserved. and sometimes
lost in the spOngy substance produced
by their composition. 1t originates in
places naturally moist, where an abund-
ance of vegetation iourishes and decays,
and where the new growth above leaves
the lower portion dead and burned. In
time, encroaching upon some former
pond bed, it usurps the domain of the
water, and accumulates to a depth OF
from twelve to forty feet. Workmen
came across the peat beds the other day
while making a sewer in Boston.

The Latest Dodge In the Metropolis.

At Broadway and Duane street, in
New York, the but of cigar Iay on the
sidewalk, and n thread of purple smoke
went up from its ashes. A well-dressed
man, wearing n silk hat that showed
evidences of recent hard usage, was eye
ing the half consumed cigar, and was
evidently making up his mind to re-
cover it. He had every appearance of
q drunken man. Keeping his eye on
the stub, he Strengthened himself up,
pulled his tall hat down over his
eyes, and stopped to reach the cigar,
smiling complacently as he extended his
hand toward the but. In the meantime
many persons had halted, and when the
wind caused the cigar to roll away just
as he was putting his fingers on it, the
knot of observers laughed. The man
again Strengthened up, and he trowned
Indignantly on those who were around
him. He looked at the staff on the
tower of theWestern Union, building, and
up and down Broadway, as though in
doubt whether he would again recover
the cigar. Then he pulled his hat over
| his eyes once more, and renewed his
effort. He fell on his knees, pitched
over on his face. arose to his knees
| again and poised his hand over the
coveted butt. The knot of observers
had been increased tenfOld, and bet:
were offered that the cigar would again
elude him. Suddenly the interest o
the throng was turned in another direc
tion. A man shouted, "Stop thief
I've lost my watchw and "A woman
cried out that her pocketbook was miss
ing. About this time the man who
had been an object of so much interest
was also missing. "Go on, go on,
said policeman to the crowd; that

them, but there is something wrong in
any system which leads young persons
to think their education is finished.
