All is hollow were the heart bears not

is not the guide.
In religion, not to do as thou sayest is
to unsay thy religion in thy deeds and to
undo thyself by doing.
Some persons live without purpose,

The next day the whole story was In
the government organ, with an intimation,
''inspired" of course from that quarter,
that his Imperial Majesty had graoiously
caused inquiries to be made about the
young chorus singer.
A few days later old Herr Rosenfeldt
received an official intimatiOn that his
gifted son Carl, and his 7iazcee, Anna
Carolla, were both under imperial pro-
lection, and their marriage was desired to
take place as Immediately as possible, the
emperor lowering the bride. The man

through Colonel Bergman, that his late
chorus singer was to be brought forward,
and advertised for the reopening Of the

occasion an estimable attachc to the late
Mr.. Bennett, and who, from the fatigues
of the job press of the New York Herald,
aimed to study medicine and become a
city coroner Of Gotham, illustrated the
power and the peace of language at one
and the same time. The very FIRST case of
the doctors coronership was alat concern
ing the death by murder of an Italian.
The only or chief witness was the terrified
son of the murdered man. He was
brought before the learned doctor, who
said, in an imperial Milesian style,
worthy of Gotham coroner:
"Well, my lad, what language do ysu
speak?"
No response.
'Do you speak German?'
No response.

An Appreciative Old Party.

Sometimes it is rather difficult to sus-
tain conversation even with man who
is apparently willing to talk. Yesterday,
on the c. B. & @. train coming east from
Fairfield, two men occupied seat just in
front of me- One of them was pleas
ant-looking old man, and the other was a
young man, who looked like student.
They appeared to be strangers to each
other, and for some miles they rode in
silence. Then our train paused a moment
to catch its breath at a siding and a
freight train went laundering past us
Then the young man turned to his neigh

The SUDDENLY looking young mar
looked as though he didn't know just ex

blamed him.
But the old man was too we'll pleased
to find talkative friend to permit the
conversation to die an untimely death a!
that, so he asked. in brisk. interested
tones:
"Why is it?'
The young man looked as though h,
didn't exactly know why, as indeed an,
man might have looked under the circum
stances, but he gathered himself and said
with little rhetorical flourish:
"Why, it winds through the valleys ant
scales almost inaccessible mountain

he sank into profound, abashed silence
but the old party was by this time thor
oughly interested in the subject, and h
spurred his young companion on by aay
ing, after an apparently intense intellecu
al effort:
"Er-er--but why! wha' for!'
The young man made one more effor
to entertain his enthusiastic comrade
and answered his rather childish question
growing in earnestness as he went on:
"Why, to meet the ceaseless demand
of restless trade; to annihilate space AM
