Heine Practicing Homeopathy

When Heinrich Heine was travelling
with his wife in the south of France.
the violinist Ernst intrusted to his care
superb Lyons sausage, to be present.
ed to IA common friend, homeopathic
doctor at Paris.
The way was long, and the travellers
became hungry. No provisions were
obtainable, and finally Nine Heine,
being tempted of the devil appetite
took OF the sausage wee, wee piece
and did eat. Heine tasted it, too. and
10 ! it was very good.
The unhappy sausage proved de.
lightful, but constantly diminishing
companion, and when they reached
Paris there was very little of it left
Heine seized his razor, sliced off a frar
ment rather thinner than a postar,
stamp and inclOsed it in a letter. TIM,

Running the Democratic Party.

Some Vermonter tells the following
good story in the Editors Drawer of
Harper's Magazine for February:
Widow -h has buried three hus-
bands, all prominent democrats. At the
funeral of the last many of the untterri-
fed were in attendance; and as they
were leaving the house gentleman re-
marked in an undertone: "This looks
like a democratic state convention"
The widow is soon to marry fourth
husband, who is also noted democrat !;
and as the matter was being discussed
recently, Jim -, who is one of the
"true blues" said: "BOys, this thing is
getting serious; at this rate the widow
will, in few years, ruin the Democra tic
party in Rutland county.

The Dark Lantern.

Its very dark, ma'am," said Mary
Brown, as she opened her door to let
me out, land Pm so sorry to let you go
home by yourself, after coming to such
Il kindness for me.n
'Don't mind about it," said "you

minute. | shall do very well, never

"The Lord will take care of you, /

had his lantern in his hand. Now you'll
do bravely if you keep near him."

and went forward as fast as | could.
thinking that, though it might be Mr.
Grey, Mary was certainly mistaken
about the lantern.
Suddenly flash of light shot across
the lane, but in moment or two il
vanished, leaving darkness more felt
than before. But hurried on, and soor

The Goodnight Kiss.

When the lessons and tasks are all ended
And the school for the day is dismissed,
And the little ones gather around me,
To bid me good night and be kissed.
Oh, the little white arms that encircle
My neck in a ter der embraced
Oh, the smiles that are halos of heaven,
Shedding sunshine of love my facel
And when they are gone sit dreaming
Of my childhood toe lovely to last;
Of love that my heart will remember
When it wakes to the pulse of the past
Ere the world and its wickedness made me
A partner of sorrow and sin;
When the glory of God was about me,
And the glory of gladness within.
oh, my heart grows weak as a wOman's,
And the fountains of feeling will flow,
When think of the paths steep and stony
Where the feet of the dear ones must go;
OF the mountains of sin hanging DER them
Of the tempest of fate blowing wild;
Oh, there's nothing OF earth half so holy
AS the innocent heart of child.
They are idols of hearts and of households,
They are angels of God in disguise;
His sunlight still sleeps in their tresses,
Ills Slory 5Ilu SleiiInS III tnelr eyes.
Oh, those truaGts from home and from heaven,
They have made me more manly and mild
And know now how Jesus could hken
The Kingdom of God to a child.
1 ask not life for the dear ones,
All radiant, as others have done.
But that life may have just enough shadow
To temper the glare of the sun.
would pray God to guard them from evil
But my prayer would bound back to myself;
All, seraph may pray for sinner
But a sinner must pray for himself
The twig is so easily bended,
have banished the rule and the rod;
1 have taught them the goodness of knowledge,
They have taught me the goodness of God.
My heart is dungeon of darkness
Where 1 shut them from breaking rule;
My frown is sufficient correction,
My love is the law of the school
shall leave the old house in the autumn,
To traverse it's threshold no more;
All, how shall sigh for the dear ones
That meet me each morn at the door.
1 shall miss the ''good-nights" and the kisses,
And the gush of their innocent glee,
The group on the green and the flowers
That are brought every morning to me.
1 shall miss them at noon and at even,
Their song in the school and the street;
| shall miss the low hum of their voices,
And the tramp of their delicate feet.
When the lessons and tasks are all ended,
And Death says, 1.-THE school is dismissed ~
May the little ones gather around me
To bid me goodnight and be kissed

by the Spirit of God, in the soul of a

Sanitary Notes.

In planning heating arrangements,
not enough consideration is paid to the
location and surroundings of the build
ing to be warmed. If there is south
ern exposure, less heat will be needed
than if the outlook is toward the north.
A corner house requires different ap-
paratus from one situated in the middle
of block, with adjoining dwellings,
each well warmed. In most of our
slightly-built city dwellings, the bulk
of the heat from CRATES, stoves, ETC.,
benefits a mans neighbOr rather than
himself. Every one has noticed the
bad effect of living next door to an un-
occupied house in cold weather. 1t is
like sleeping on the outside of the bed
with insufficient covering. Here is an
other illustration of a popular igno-
rance. A gentleman while attending
church one evening, found his feet
were icy cold, SO that he had to raise
them from off the floor. Calling the
attention of the sexton to the fact, the
latter said, with some pe1plexity !;
"4es, we have good many complaints
OF cold feet from others but | can't
understand the reason why we can't
keep the church warm we surely have
fires enough" So saying, he pointed
to register in the floor directly be
hind the gentleman in an adjoining
pew. Looking around, the latter could
see that there was hot fire in the fur
mace beneath, and yet no heat came
up. When a handkerchief was laid
over the register, it scarcely stirred
The visitor asked the sexton, "Haye
you any means of ventilation ?'' ono.
slr;" Are there no windows open ?'
None whatever" Chow, then, c;u
you expect the air to come in here if il
can't get out somewhere u There WA.

The muddy and bad streets, the dis
NAL weather and hard work seem to
make the average city driver morose
and contentious. The indisposition
Of each one to give another the best Of
the road, no matter fit his due, has
led to a good many quarrels among
them, and in the last week a half doz-
en- wagons have been broken and more
than a dozen arrests made for careless
and fast driving. One of the greatest
nuisances, however, has been hesum-
mary manner in which drays string
out over the crossings, splashing mud
over the pedestrians. The city ordi-
nsnces give the pedestrians the first
right to the crossings, and numerous
complaints have been made of narrow
escapes from being drowned in flying
slush or crushed beneath flying
wheels Yesterday two drivers were
arrested for splashing mud on a couple
Of ladies who were endeavorins to
wade across a muddy street. One Of
the ladies might have been injured but
for the timely interference of Mr.. Gus
Hitzfeld, who caught the bride Of
the foremost mule and ierked the ami
NAL upon its launches. The court
fined the driver 50, and administered
a rebuke with a promise to lay it on
heavy next time.
