Happy the man who goeth forth, know

all waters waiting in patience
for its fruits, realizing that the
acorn may become the pride Of
the forest and that no action is too small to

ognize the true value which should be at
tached to comparatively trivial action, Will
not grow impatient in the performance Of
them because each will seem stepping
stone toward success to be obtained BY and

things depends upon Knowing how long
it takes to succeed. II is the man who is

Isn't it true that many one has failed
in life, not because he did not have chances
but, because he was not ready for them,
when they came or failed to see in them
anything but tribe. Many people in this
world are inclined to consider as trifes the
little courtesies Of life, and TO consider i, Of
little moment, whether one is rough and
boorish or Of gentle refined manners, and
although some claim that real worth is not
to be enhanced by outside polish, yet it Is
true that all the world Judge one another
by the little acts which are taken as indexes
of the true character In speaking Of this
very subject one says, mo doubt there are
few men who can look beyond the husk
or shell Of fellow being, his angularties,
awkwardness, or eccentricity TO tie
hidden quslities within, who eau
discern the diamond, however
incrusted, but the msjority are neither so
sharp-cyed or 50 tolerant, and Judge per
son by his appearance and demeanor more
than by his substantial character. 1t is
truth that no one Of us should live solely
for our own good and pleasure, but are ow-
ing daily and hourly duties to others
around us, and that no one can be 50 indie.

daily kindness, which it Is in the power Of

Mary's little Ls,nb.

Tho veritable "Mary (who) had little
lamb whose fleece was white as snow" visit
cd the Old South Spinning Bee, Mass, re-
Gently and told the ladies present the story
Of the lamb. When she.was nine years old
and was living on farm, one morning she
went out into the barn where she found two
little lambs, one of them nearly dead. So
she took 1t into the house and sat up all
night nursing 1t. The next morning the
lamb conld stand On it's feet, and grew
stronger every day. Owing to her loving
catc the lamb became 80 attached to Mary
that 1t followed her about and one day to
school, where she hid it under her desk, 80
that the teacher did not know 1t was In
school until Mary was called up to recite.
Then the lamb came out from Its hiding
place, and made the children laugh and
shout 80 that the teacher was obliged to
turn 1t out. The poem was written by a
friend Of Mary's (the venerable Mrs. Sarah
Josepha Hale soon after the lambs visit
to the school room. Mary was married
many years since, and lives near Boston.
Hhs brought In some Of the first fleece Of
her famous little pet.

The Chinese Wall.

Mr. Unthank, an American engineer, has
been engaged lately making a survey for O
Chinese railway, during which he took
measurements in many places of INC great
wall of China. He gives the height at
eighteen feet, and the width on top fifteen.
Every few hundred yards there is tower
twcnty-four feet square and from twenty TO
forty five feet high. Tho foundation of
this Immense wall Is solid granite. The
wall goes for !, 800 miles over the noun
tains, chasms and valleys 1t was built to
keep out the Tartars. Mr.. Unthank
brought back with him a. brick from this
wall, which is supposed to have been made
200 years before Christ. In some places
the wall Is built smooth up against the
canyons or precipices, where there is q
sheer descent Of one thousand feet. Small
streams are arched over, but in the larger
streams the wall Is built to tho water's edge,
and tower is built on each side. To cal
culate the time of building, or cost of this
wall, is beyond human skill. On the top
OF The wall are breastworks or defenses,
facing In and out, 80 that tho defending
force can piss from one tower to tho other
without being exposed to any enemy from
either side. So far as the magnitude Of the
wall is concerned, 1t surpasses everything
In ancient or modern times, Of which there
is any trace 1t is said that the Pyramids
OF Egypt are nothing compared to It. ~

Hswling Nicaragua Monkeys.

Four howling monkeys from Nicaragua
are now at the Geological Garden at Phila.
deiphla These animals have a reputation
OF being able to make more noise in pro-
portion to their size than any other animal
yet discovered, except perhaps the tree
frog In their native woods, lust before
sunrise, these howlers commence, and their
dismal cries,it is said, can be heard for
! miles around. They are enabled to make
thls terrific noise by reason of q special de-
Velopment of vocal organs. They are
small animals and are generally founa in
South America. Those at the Garden
are known as the Mantled Howlers,' be-
cause of line of gray hair around the
| back and sides, and are tho most northern
CT several species. They are the first
winch have ever beon In the Garden, as
they are scarce and hard to capture. Be-
sidcs that, they are very delicate, as was
| shown by the fast that the four which ar
rived there are all that was left of fourteen
which were sent from Nicaragua. TO
capture those fourteen little MONKEYS it
| took, about eighteen mon several hours.
and nccessitated the cutting down of about
four acres of trees. A tribe or lot of the
| animals were observed in the forest. and
the method by which they were secured
was briefly as follows: The men first sur
rounded the tribe, so as to drive them
as closely together as possible. Then an
| outside ring Of trees were cut down; the
fall OF which drove the monkeys still closer
to the centre More trees were felled, until
but single clump of two or three trees
wero left standing, and the monkeys were
left sheltered In their branches. Then one
| after another these trees were cut down. 80
that all the tribe had to take refuge in one
tree. The capture of a number of them
was then a comparatively easy matter. The
four little strangers were placed in ono of
the cages in tho monkey house. With
them arrived "black handed spider mon.
key" specimens of which have been in
the COLLECTION before. Tho name indicates
just about what they look like. They
have black hands and long arms and legs.
which make them resemble spider very
much. =

Charles Lever,

a man named Nixon, at Dublin, had q
mule, whose services he placed at the dis
posal OF his friends, but the mount was al
ways accepted with misgivings, for the
animal was the most vicious Of her tribe.
The operation of grooming could only be
conducted with safety to life and limb by
the restraint of an iron ,muzzle, and with
fore leg tied up. Bridling and saddlinp
and mounting were managed from q loft
above, and the animal was backed into the
open, alr and not freed from restraint until a
clear Stage was reached, where man and beast
might try conclusions as to mastery. This
was no child's play, for the brate's nose
would seem to touch the ground, while its
heels appeared high In the air. Whom
these meliminaries were safely got through,
there was usually peace for the rest of the
day; for. once fairly started, tho animal
seemed to like the work, and she was feet
sure-footed had the activity Of a cat, and
followed sport with the keenness Of a dog.
pause, however, or lull in the aHause-
ment was always dangerous; she would
have time to remember her vices, and re-
commence their practice. The movement
was commonly stern foremost, tho hind
legs flourishing in advance In a manner
that meant mischief. In this fashion, on
one occasion. Lover, being tho rider, q
farm house was entered, such slight obsta-
cles as chairs and tables boing easily kicked
aside. A ''drcssor," the pride OF the
family, with Its furniture of crockery, was
dislodgcd from Its fastenings by these for
midablo heels, and fell to tho ground, with
plates and dishes, mugs and porringers,
scattered and shattered. Many were tho de-
vices that were tried, but failed, to secure
eviction, when the strong measure of igniting
bushes of furze under and behind the AMI
NAL was rcsorted to. When Lover emerged
from the smoke, still mounted he was
greeted with loud cheers; and, with tho as
sent Of chorus Of sponsors, the animal
previously called Blazes was re-christened
"Knock- -a-crockery," in memory of tho
event.

REQ FancIlIng In California.

This is famous country for bees and
the making Of honey, and at many a break
fast table in distant Europe to-day, the
waffle Is spread with the sweets that have
been flched from the hearts of thousand
California flowers. In the mouth of almost
every canon there is bee ranch or apiary,
whose owner grows indolent and prosper
GUS from the labors of his industrious sub.
jec.s. Here there is no long winter with
dearth Of flowers, through which the pa
tient workers must be nursed and fed in
order that they may live until the opening
OF the next field season, These bee ranches
are models OF neatness and domestic COM
fort, and the profession of Bookkeeping is
rapidly becoming popular among persons
OF little physical strength or small financial
capital, or both; such as maiden ladies,
broken down ministers, bachelor students,
and those dilettante farmers who fancy that
the royal road to oucolic happiness lies
through the flowery beds of bee pasture.
Their expenses are as light as those of a
hermit In his cave, and what stores of
honey are laid up are so much clear gain,
as the bees board themselves while they
work, and work increasingly for the pre-
paratlOn OF the winter, which never comes.
When the hiyc is full, the cakes of comb
are removed, the liquid is extracted from
the cells. and the empty cups are replaced
to be filled again and again. This eco
nomical process prevents a waste of labor
and timo in gathering Of wax for the build
ing OF new bins ir the store-house. Walk
ing out In the morning in the green brush
wood of these canyons. you hear loud
and continuous buzzing of wings, and, al
though there may not be flower in sight,
1t Is as ceaseless and strong as in buck
wheat patch or clover field at home. This
humming of bees is natures tenor voice, as
inc roaring or the water Is her b, ,ere
