Luck Mt Cards.

One word as to luck. Whether we
believe in it or not, there is such thing
as luck. We see one man for season
persistently holding bad cards, losing
rubber after rubber, and invariably
being found by his partner with moth
ing in his hand. Nor is such misfort-
une due to bad play. As long as honors
count for what they do in the rubber,
frst-class player, it is calculated, has
only the advantage of one point in the
game over an Indifferent player. Still,
in spite of men grumblng about their
luck, and assuring everybody that they
invariably lose, take a cycle of three
years and it will be found that luck is
very even in its operations. I have seen
men who have lost steadily throughout
whole year, yet in the next year they
have more than recovered their losses.
I have seen a man lose Is rubbers rum
ming; yet shortly afterward I saw him
win every night during the whole week.
No man who has made legitimate whist
the occupation of his life has ever come
to much grief. The men who have
been broke" are those who play for
points they cannot afford, and who have
not the funds to stand heavy run of
bad luck; or those who, not content
with the points, bet largely, backing
their luck when they win, and plunging
deeper and deeper to regain their losses
when unfortunate. But legitimate
whist-that is, whist at points that a
man can afford to lose, and no bets-is
the cheapest pleasure that can be in
dulged in. It offers one an agreeable
rest after days labor, healthy form
of excitement, and intellectual exercise
without fatigue. Ny advice to all is that
of Talleyrand. 'Play whist, and you will
be spared sorrowtul old age."eLosa-
don Society.

NeMspapers as Feet. WRAPS.

Complaining of the misery of long
journey the other day to q friend, with
out any foot-warmers in the carriage,
and the consequent pain Of cold feet,
she told me that she had practical les
son given to her by well-known Times
correspondent on that very matter.
They were making long journey to-
gether in bitter weather, and could get
no hot-water tins put into their car
riage. He at once told her not to re-
greet the deficiency, for his newspaper
would more than compensate for it. So
he took off her boots, and, tearing his
Times in half, wrapped each foot care
fully up in the paper. In few min
utes circulation seemed to return to
her benumbed feet, and she assured me
she arrived at the end Of her journey
in perfect comfort, and with warm feet.
Such lesson was not to be lost, and
my friend told nae that she had resorted
to the same expedient several times

Physicians, Fees Regulated BY Law.

The fees which physicians may charge
in Prussia for their services are regulat-
ed by law, and, according to the most
recent ordinance, the charge for the
first visit to sick person is fixed at 2
marks (25 cents standing for a mark,
and 1 mark for each subsequent visit;
where, however, several persons belong
ing to the same family and dwelling in
the same house have to be treated at the
same time, then, for the second and
each succeeding person, only the half
of those fees, respectively, is to be
charged-the same rule is to apply to
boarding schools and similar institu-
lions; also to prisons. When there is q
consultation of several physicians
about the treatment of sick person,
including their personal visits, each
physician is to receive for the first
consultation 3 marks, and marks for
each subsequent similar consultation.
On the occasion of the first visit to the
physicians residence for his medical
advice, II marks. For the administra-
ton Of chloroform, ETC., when necessary
for the treatment of the patient. 8 marks.

Ike and the Mule.

Old Isaac Saunders has just been ar
raigned before the court on q charge
of embezzllng q mule from the church.
Ike had been assigned to circuit work
by the conference, but had failed to
adhere to his letter of acceptance. In
fact, he refused to preach after making
way with the mule, and the three
churches that alternately were to re-
ceive food from him combined and had
him arrested. After the examination of
several witnesses, the colored lawyer for
the defense arose and said:
DE parson has de law all on his side
becase he ploys lawyer and de church
don't. Dat am powerful factor in his
resemblance. An now I ak de Jedge
OBJ dis court ter let de prisoner 60. I
don't make long speeches, but comes
down to de pint. Dis man amt guilty
no more nor was las year when da
dited me for stealin' hog. Dis am
convincin', and de court can't stand
aroun' it."
The Justice, also q colored man,
pondered long time, and at length
said:
de attorney hab stated one fack.
De tense hab got all de law, for de
uder side hain't 'ployed no lawyer. An
I'll state right heeh dat some powerful
arguments will be needed to 'vict dis
preacher unless he can't show why he
'bezzled de mule"
One of the church members arose
and told how Ike had disappointed the
church people by not coming, and how
after coming he had startled them by
failing to account for the church prop
erty.
Ike, being called on for q statement,
arose and said:
I tuck charge OBJ dat circuit in good
faith, but when da fetch me out mule
ter ride my faith commenced ter suffer
wild de rheumatic. Oar is two classes
of niggers mule haters and de mule
lubbers. Use always been mule hater.
Well, las Sunday mornin' I took my
him-book, my testamint and mounted
the mule, paratory fer de holy work.
Oh all thirgs in dis worl I think dat de
mule is de unfttenist for gospel work.
You can run eroun' hog thrasher and

you can't run mule in de same con-
nection. I rid along piece and COM

A String Of White Touaxes.

A stranger in Baltimore, few years
ago, would often have met upon the
streets bent, decrepit woman, shah
billy dressed in o cheap, not always
clean, stuff gown, and faded cotton
gloves.
Yet this woman had once been the
wife Of King; dress and display had
been her ruling passions, and she had
even then large income with which to
crafty them If she chose.
There has been no more dramatic or
significant figure among American
women than Madame Bonaparte. In
spite of her defeat in striving to gain q
throne, her career has been popularity
regarded exceptionally brilliant and
fortunate.
It is as well We should look at her life
in its true significance. Never was
there a stronger sermon preached
against worldliness.
Betty Patterson, according to her
own statement in her private letters,
was beautiful, shrewd, ambitious girl,
who made up her mind before she saw
him to marry the probable occupant of a
throne.
The man proved to be mass of dull,
coarse brutality, but she shouldered
the load in hopes of crown, soon to
find herself thrown aside, and the crown
placed upon the head of another wom-
an. She was selfish and ambitious,
with no wish to believe in God, and
there was fine eternal justice in this
legal injustice.
The tragedy Of her life was not in
the disappointment, but in her seventy.
year-long struggle afterward for power
and money. What more pitiable spec
tacle than this young, beautiful woman,
believing in neither God nor man,
hawking her charms through Europe to
make a second marriage as heartless
and brilliant as the frstP
She writes to her father with open
dislike, asking to be allowed the credit
of his reputed wealth to help her cheat
somebody into marrying her. Her let
ters to her son, when he was man, are
hard, bitter, and cruel. Even her son
was but tool to open her way to fort
une. Money, rank, display, these were
her gods; how did they pay her for her
lifelong servicep
In the very flush Of her triumphs she
cries out, II am tired of life, and OF
ever having lived" and begs as conso.
lation, not for Gods help, or for affec.
ton, but for string of white topazesl
Sheworked for throne; she despised
all Americans as vulgar; she died in g
cheap American clearinghouse, where
for years she had been an object OF
compassion to strangers, to whom she
would tell for the thousandth time the
story of the greatness which had neve,
been hers.
There may be young girls among oul
readers, who, like Betty Patterson, turn
away God and pure, true love, for dis
play and social success. The day may
come when they, too, will be tired of life
or of having lived, and will know NJ
higher comfort than a string of white
topazes.

The WAY to Health.

The only true way to health is that
which common sense dictates to man.
Live within the bounds of reason. Eat
moderately. drink temperately, sleep
regularly, avoid excess in anything, and
preserve conscience "void of offense."
Some men eat themselves to death,
some wear out their lives by Incidence,
and some by over-exertion, while not a
few sink into the grave under the eff
fects of vicious practices. All the
medicines in creation are not worth a
farthing to o man who is constantly
and habitually violating the laws of his
own nature. All the medical science
in the world cannot save him from q
premature grave. With q suicidal
course Of conduct he is planting the
seeds Of decay in his own constitution
and accelerating the destruction of his
own life.

A Very SagaciOus Horse.

A very old and remarkable horse, the
property of Col. John q. James, of Or.
bana, Ohio, has recently died. Old
Bonny, like most intelligent people,
had decided ideas of his own. When
the Colonel was in his Office Old Bonny,
though never hitched, stood at his
hitching post in front, unless the sun
or flies became troublesome, when he
would go round the corner and through
q narrow lane into the back lot, but
could be found in one place or the
other. except on few occasions, be-
coming impatient at an unusually long
delay, he went home alone. At noon
he would go up to the steps, and, when
the buggy was unloaded and all the
packages taken out, he would 60 to his
box under tree and wait for his din
ner, while at night he would go with
equal regularity and alone to the stable
Bonny undoubtedly came to distin-
guish Sundays from other days.
Whether this was from the ringing of
the church bells, or from the later hour
he was wanted, or from direct influx
of that wisdom that teaches the sparrow
to fly, on Sunday, without the raising
of q line, he. would turn to the right
and 60 to church, while on workdays
he would to the left and go down town.
One of his last exploits was one of the
most remarkable. He had lost two
shoes, and his feet had become little
sore. Pat, the stable-boy, who had be-
lieved that Bonny knew more than
many men, took two shoes, tied them
together with string, shook them be-
fore his face, and hung them across his
neck, and then started him off alone,
and he went four blocks, turning two
corners, to Edward Hills blacksmith
shop, where he had been shod for
twenty years, and, after the shoes were
put on, went home alone. Since his last
exploit Mr.. Hill would freely and con-
scientiously make oath that Old Benny
knew more than half his human GUS
toners.

No Longer q Belle.

The once most beautiful woman of Ar
kansas is now beggar. She is the
daughter of Sandy Faulkner, the
Arkansas Traveller" She has been
married several times, and is now
known as Mrs. Trapnell. In the old
days of Arkansas aristocracy. when the
rich planters and men of note gathered
at the Ashley mansion, Miss Faulkner
was the belle, petted, fattered and adj
mired by every one. Her wardrobe
came from Paris, and her lovers from
everywhere. Slave to the demands of
gayety and conquest, she was naughty,
and considered heartless. Her sway
for years was undisputed, and, when
her financial decline came, she would
not recognize fact which seemed to
her so preposterous. She married, but
her husband did not prove to be
wealthy. From this husband, if I am
correctly informed, she was divorced.
She was still beautiful, and. though di-
vorced from her husband, she was still
inseparably welded to society. But
the bright star of her life had begun to
grow dim. Her father died and left
her with comparatively nothing. She
still had offers of marriage, but she dis
dained them on financial grounds. On
one occasion large party was forming
to visit the New Orleans Mardi Gras
festivities. She was unable to meet the
necessary expenses. A gentleman who
had heard her express herself, and with
whom she was scarcely acquainted, re-
marked to her
If you will marry me I will take
you to New Orleans" II will" she ex.
claimed, and they were married. This
husband, I think, died shortly after.

with an accident. While riding in @
