The Garfield Family.
SOMETHING ABOUT THE NEXT OCCUPANTS OF THE
WHITE HOUSE.

A recent writer says: Mrs. Garfield is a
very pleasant, but not demonstrative
woman. She is well educated and appre.
ciates the good things in literature and art
She reads "solid" books and the maya.
zines; looks well after the house and
teaches her own children; she is "help-
meet and an entertaining companion for
her husband, and abundantly able TO en-
terrain his most intellectual friends and
visitors. | should think her most mark ed
characteristic is that of perfect attention
to her own business, and no meddling with
other peoples. She is unostentatious. She
refused to allow her photograph to be
sold or her picture to be engraved, though
earnestly pressed to do so by photograph
ers, engravers and by many friends. l
suspect she don't care to be written about
much either, and l don't wish to do
violence to her desire in this respect by ex.
tended comments,
The children are two boys, one girl and
two moro boys. The first child was a girl,
which died when a few months old. Their
last one was boy that died when about 2
years old Harry, the oldest living, is l6
Abram, the youngest, is 8; "Jim" is IA,
Molly IL, and Irwin 10 years old. Harry is
| a quiet, steady boy, very obedient and duti.
| full, particularly respectful toward his par.
ents and grandmother. The writer had an
opportunity of seeing a characteristic letter
which he wrote to his mother shortly
after the Chicago convention, he and
"Jim" being in school at Concord, N. H..
at the time. He spoke of the fact that
some Of his schoollnates had manifested a
| great deal more interest in himself and
"Jim" since their spa" was nominated for
president. He evidently thought this q
little snobby, and said he didn't consider
that they were bit bigger or better than
they were before, and that he would re
spect his father just as much, "even if he
were nothing but a congressman all his
life" He didn't seem to think it a very
big thing to be congressman.
Jim is what is called a rollicking boy
| He is never known TO be still unless asleep
Both physically and intellectually he il
very strong and very quick. He masters
his studies almost without effort and in in
credibly short time. At shool he likes the
gymnasium he excels on the trapeze anC
spring. board. Al home he stands on hi
head, walks on his hands with his heels up
turns handsprings and somersaults anC
jumps the fence in preference to opening
the gate. Heis goodnatured, kindhearteC

ANOTHER WoMAN's VENTURE.-The failure
of the Woman's Bank of the notorious Mrs.
Howe, of Boston, is now followed by the
explosion of a New York Ladies' Mining
and Stock exchange" and the disappear
ance of the manager, a Mrs. NJ. E. Warren,
who seems to be anxiously looked for, but
so far in vain. This was speculative affair,
which took "margins" from confding
ladies, promising them fortunes in stocks
The object of this concern, like that of Mrs,
Howe, pretended to be benevolent entirely.
1t claimed to have capital enough of its
own, but would receive deposits from ladies
in order to give them the chance to multi
ply their incomes. The depOsitors had
grown to be quite numerous by the time Of
the exposure of Mrs. Howe's swindle, but
this seems at once to have alarmed the de
positors and the bankers, and the latter
closed their doors on November l. There
are said to be at least hundred victims OIL
these operations, who have lost sums vary
ing from $25 to $1,000. They are chiefly
persons who could not afford to lose, and
who, for that reason, should have abstaineo
from risking their little all on such uncer
| tain ventures.

and are foolish enough to think that they
see a ship, when in fact they have only
shipped sea. These are idealists. They
are always about to grasp the prize, but
alas, they grasp the air.
Now if | understand the author Of the
verses, he puts the two first together and
calls them the Glow man," while the third
is the "high man. or an idealist according
to one use of the term. | think that the
which the verses were quoted, fell into the
common error about idealism, and con-
founded it with enlarged, but sound views,
and high, but attainable aims.

GUIDED.

Up the long, slippery slopes We toll and strain,
Amid the ice and snow,
Untrodden heights above us to attain,
Untrodden depths below
Danger to left and danger to the right,
All YEARLY we so.
Cruel and beautiful the blue crevasse
Yawns close beside the way,
The avaanehes topple DER the pass;
Their cold, white torrents stay
Only moment ere they roar and plunge,
To rend and whelm and Stay.
Each following each. we mount, as We are led,
Up the long, steep incline;
Our guide walks cal m and fearless at the head
Of the long, faltering line,
And shows the narrow patch where safety is
BY word and look and sign.
Marking his footsteps. treading where he trod,
Close following on his track,
We cannot faint or fail or miss the road,
Though deep the SHOWS and black
The precipiceS yawn, and rough and steep
The forward path and back.
Intent on him, we do not mark or sec
These hard things by the way,
1t is enough that we are led, and he
Whose guidance we obey
Has gone before and knows how hard it Is:
What he has done we may.
Above the miSts we catch a faint, far chime,
And glimpses heavenly fair
Shine through, and seem 70 beckon as we climb
How distant, bright they are
Dear guide lead on! We do not ask for rest.
Would to God that we are there.

The curious fact is noted by a London
health officer that, whatever may be the
cause, Jews life is undoubtedly worth
twice as many years as a Gentile's. In
proof of this he reports that in the district
of Whitechapel, on the north side of High
street, which is occupied by Jews, the
average death rate is twenty per thousand F;
while en- the south side of the same street,
where the English and Irish live, the rate
is forty.three per thousand. If this singu.
lar difference holds good in other parts of
the world, it is not only an additional
reason for considering the Jews a peculiar
people, but good one for studying them
from physical standpoint.

The schooner Mary E. Smith is lying at
the Pusey & Jones lower wharf discharging
sand. Her captain reports that while they
were taking on cargo at Bombay Hook the
crew dug up the skeleton of man dressed
with hat, pantaloons and boots, the rest of
the clothing having disappeared. He was
found under three feet of sand, about so
feet above high water mark, near the spot
where the old Bombay Hook hotel used to
stand, which is about three miles below
Woodawn Beach. Not being able to find
anything by which to identify the remains
they were reburied some 20 feet beyond
the reach of the water. The bones fell
apart when an attempt was made to pick
the man up. The hat was of felt, the boots
were of fine material, and the captain ex.
presses the belief that the body is that of a
landsmen, and not the remains of sailor.
