Good Breeding.

ONE of the sure tests of good breeding
~ is thoughtful regard TO the conve-
nience of Others in crowd. An illbred
man or woman will stop in a church
aisle to talk to neighbor, at the close
of the service, without stepping aside to
allow those who are behind to pass on
unhindered. And the same fault will
be shown in blocking the passage-way
of railroad car, while gathering up
luggage from the seat, on arriving at u
station; or In standing in the doorway
of public hall or place of business or
in taking more than ones share In q
street-car, or on the sidewalk, or at o
street crossing, or in an exhibition hall,
or at ticket Office. A person of true
refinement and of really good breeding
will have others in mind while with
others. The average refinement in any
crowd or gathering of people Is plainly
marked by the ease with which all get
along together. Twenty persons of
good breeding can find comfortable
sitting or standing room in car, or
hall, or street, and be good-natured all
the time, when ten ill-bred person 8
would be jostling each other ill-natur-
edly. And this is more than matter of
good breeding. 1t involves regard for
the rights as well as the comfort of
Others. 1t Is selfshness which makes
one willing to block o passage-way for
ones own convenience, when others
want to move on. 1t Is dishonesty which
leads one to take more than his or her
share of time or space, while others are
waiting for their turn, or are waiting
their place. Whoever would be counted
well-bred or refined ought to have this
truth always in mind; so ought all
those who would be, and do right.
Children ought to be trained to proper
course in this regard. They and their
parents ought to learn to keep out of
other peoples way, when other people
are entitled to the way.

A Lump of Soft Coal.

For years no one had supposed that q
lump of soft coal, dug from the its
mine or bed in the earth, possessed any
other purpose than that of fuel. 1t was
next found that it would afford gas
that was combustible. Chemical analy-
ses proved it to be made of hydrogen
In process of time, mechanical and
chemical ingenuity devised mode of
manufacturing this gas and applying it
to the lighting of buildings and cities
on large scale. In doing this other
products of distillation were developed
until, step by step, the following ingre-
dents are extracted from it:
An excellent oil to supply light
houses, equal to sperm oil, at lower
cost. Benzole, light sort of etheral fluid
which evaporates easily, and, combined
with vapor of moist air, is used for the
purpose of portable gas lamps, so called,
Naptha, heavy fluid, useful to dissolve
gutta- -percha and india-rubber; an excel
lent oil for lubricating purposes. Asphal-
tum-which is black, solid substance,
used in making yarnishes, covering
roofs and covering vaults. Paraffine -
white crystalline substance resembling
white wax, which can be made into
beautiful candles similar to wax 1t
melts at temperature of 10 degrees,
and affords an excellent light. All these
substances are now made from soft
coal.

This was enough for Shields, and he
Immediately challenged Lincoln to NOR
tai combat.
Broadswords were chosen as the weap-
ons most likely to place them on equal
footing. The proceedings were con-
Quoted with great secrecy, and in order
to have the amusement to themselves
brushwood copse was chosen for the
encounter. But friends had followed
unobserved, and came up in time to
catch the belligerents in the act of clear
ing space for the fight by hewing
down the brushwood with their swords.
The ludlcrousness of the thing was soon
made apparent, and the affair ended in
good humor.

The Story of an Invention.

Rather more than hundred and fifty
years ago, potter named Astbury was
making a journey on horseback from
Staffordshire to London, and while stop
ping at Dunstable he had occasion to
ask aid for weakness in the eyes of his
horse. Having made known his wants
to the hostler of the inn at which he
was staying, the latter undertook the
asked for assistance, and this he did by
taking piece of flint, calcining, or
burning it to powder in the fire, and
blowing some into the horses eyes. 1t
is said that the change produced in the
flint by burning, from black stone to a
white powder, at once struck the potter
with brilliant idea. "Would it be
possible to produce white flint ware

be, never contemplated the picture Of a
husband coming home cross as bear
and going to bed without speaking to
her she had never thought of the long
evenings when he wouldn't come home
at all, or bringing some one home to
dinner without warning or preparation /;
of his awful profanity over so trifing q
matter as the gas bill.
She had no idea, In fact that there
could be anything but happiness In
married life, and she had determined to
he happy and to distribute her happiness
among those about her.
1t Is not often her fault Is she doesn 't
succeed Men, as rule, do not exert
themselves to secure their wives happi-
ness.
They know that 1t requires constant
and q great effort to possess property and
be secure In its value in the midst of
constant commercial changes.
The cheerfulness, the happy, hopeful
character which every woman displays
at the beginning of marriage is not 80
easily lost as fortune; 1t requires but n
small share of the attention, and yet so
often does not get that little share.
Therefore word to the girls In this
connection is in order beware of a
man who doesn't know enough about
cheerfulness to understand its value in
daily life. Such n man would improve
the first opportunity to grind the cheer
fulness out of his home, to frighten
sunbeam into shadow, and then won
der what Is the matter.
Such is no better than no husband at
all and when you want a husband go
find somebody else-somebody who will
give you at least some chance to be hap
py far into the life beyond the honey
moon.

The Shields Lincoln Duel

General Shields once had difficulty
with Abraham Lincoln which resulted
in preparations for duel. Shortly af-
ter his return from the Mexicon war, a
newspaper in Illinois, where he lived,
published an article which displeased
him very much.
He called upon the editor; said it was
offensive and insis ted upon knowing
the author.
The editor asked time to consider, and
meanwhile consulted Mr.. Lincoln, in
forming him that the writer of the arti-
Gle was young woman.
"Oh, I'll settle that" said Lincoln
"Tell Shields l am personally RESPONSE

A young friend of mine was cured
of an Unsuitable thirst for Liquor, which
had so prostrated him that he was una
BILE to do any business. He was entirely
cured by the use of Hop Bitters. 1t
alIayed all that burning thirst; took
away the appetite for liquor; made his
nerves steady, and he has remained a
sober and steady man for more than two
years, and has no desire to return to his
cups: / know of number of others
that have been cured of drinking by it. :"

harder and more durable than white
ware made entirely of clayY The idea
appears no sooner conceived than 1t was
carried out. Collecting some fllnts from
the nelghborhood of Dunstable, Asst
bury took them with him to Stafford
shire, and the result was thoroughly
satisfactory, and indeed more than rea-
lized bis expectations, for powder of
calclned flint, mixed with pipe clay,
was found to produce most excellent
ware. Thusa q new branch of the art of
pottery was at once established and took
deep root.

A Sudden Change of Mind.

Miss Green and Mr.. Neemier stood at
the chancel rail in Roman Catholic
church at Delphos, Ohio, in the pres
ence of large wedding assembly. The
marriage ceremony was smoothly per-
formed to the point where Miss Green
was asked if she would take Mr.. Nee
mier to be her husband.
"No," will not" she responded
The priest was thoroughly confused and
put the question again, whereupon she
declared that she had changed her
mind, but would give no explanation.
Of course the ceremony was not con-
cluded.

Inadeilty and Crime.

THE New York " Evening Post"
i says: We believe It to be sus-
ceptible of demonstration that the late
extraordinary increase of crime, an
increase more palpable every day crowd
ing with its record the columns of the
public prints and sickening the soul
with its endless detail and novelty of
horror, is largely due to the growth of
materialism, or what is termed infideli-
ty; and that mainly in reaction from
the skeptical drift of the time lies the
path of the wholesome reform. The
fruit of unbelief among the upper or
wealthy classes is sensuality. Those
classes get to worship instead of their
Maker, the pleasures of the mo-
ment. They bow down to rich food
and fine clothes and enervating amuse-
ments. They make goddesses of wo-
men who. possess mere physical beau
ty. Their hearts are set on yachts and
ce-courses and theatres and operas
What is given, in a word, to gild or
soften life, to lend grace and sparkle and
color to the plod and monotone Of ex-
istence, such persons make its sole OBJ
ject and aim.
Thus they become of the earth, earth
ly, and all that is spiritual and exalted
dries out of their souls. One after an
other the Commandments are broken as
they stand in the way of desire, and a
shameful ruin is left at last in place of
what might have been perfect temple
q shattered and sated voluptuary in
place of nobly perfected human be-
ing.
Among the poorer and less educated
ranks of society the cant and poison of
living only for the day is even more
directly disastrous. The rich can graft
fly their passions without, as rule and
in the legal sense, coming in conflict
with the rights of others. But the
needy, unrestrained by any fear of fu-
ture account, and thinking only to eat
and drink since tomorrow they die,
drive straight on crime. That this is
no idle assertion can be abundantly
proved. A careful survey of murderers,
suicides and other great felonies COM
mitted in the chief cities of the United
States during the last ten years shows
that a heavy fraction of the perpetra-
tors were atheists or free thinkers. These
unhappy persons, persuaded that life is
the be-all and the end-all here, imagine
that in their calculations they can jump
the life to come. A collection of the
letters or other papers left by criminals
when anticipating death shows a fear
ful number of instances, some of which
many readers will recall, of absolute dis
belief in the existence of God or in
any reckoning for wrong done in this
life to be exacted in future one.n

Miss Belle Estelle, the pedcstrienne,
started last evening, in McDaniel's
theatre, to walk II thousand miles In
4 thousand hours. A space has been
reserved on one side of the hall, and
forty-three laps are required for a mile.
The lady started at eight O'Clock and
walked her first mile in seventeen min
utes. Although she has undertaken a
most severe task, she seems possessed
of the requisite skill and vim to sue
coed. She accomplished the feat once
before, in st. Louis. A good number
of spectators witnessed the commence

ghost on Thursday afternoon.
"Prince." as the dog was called. was
an unusually sagacious canine, per-

truders on the premises, and for years
has been a favorite not only with the
family but with the neighbors. A dose
of ''cold pizen," administered by some
unknown. yet villainous hand, finished
the earthly career of Prince. If there
is "a land Of the blest'' for faithful
CANNES, the spirit OF Prince will occu-

Reno will explain the nature of the ex-
