Rural Improvement societies.

1t is said the State OF Connecticut has
fifty or more "village improvement So
cieties." This speaks well for that en-
terprising State and the cause it thus
fosters. Each OF these societies will be
the radiating center for others, and will
do great good in general way as well
as in their immediate local influence.
The object of these societies is to pro-
tect the public health, by establishing
favorable sanitary conditions about viii
lage and rural homes; to stimulate pub
lie spirit in every way; to improve the
roads and beautify the roadsides, as
well as grounds about schoolhouses,
churches, cemeteries and public squares;
to educate the public taste for rural art
and adornment, and altogether to make
country homes and life more satislac.
tory and attractive. Their purposes are
advantageous in every way, for they not
only enlist public interest and spirit,
but prove profitable to health, and sue
cessful in enhancing the value of prop
erty. 1t seems as though this work
| is developing a genuine zest
which is destined to spread until i'm
provement societies are organized in
every town or village that pretends to
have any ambition, and this fact is not
to be wondered at, for the field for the
! ulbpldy VI JdSJc anu IlNonJ 10 BlCub.
1t furnishes common interest for all.
and scarcely any chance for personal
squabbles. Mistakes will be made with
out doubt, and amateur landscape
gardeners and architects will invent
varied and wonderful enormities, but
the result will be good, and improve
ment will come with improved taste.
The village audience will laugh down
the crudities and errors, and excite the
society to better efforts, and the good
cause will ultimately produce grand
results. But it would be better if mis-
takes could be avoided, especially in
those matters appertaining to hygiene.
1t is difficult engineering feat to obtain
| perfect drainage in town and village,
and it would be decidedly wise to leave
! the plans for such purposes to compe-
| tent engineers. And as good roads will
! be apart of the plan of every society it
will be saving OF time and expense to
| leave this matter also in their charge.
! But in matters of taste, from decorating
| the town pump, and eliminating the
crudities from tree box, watering trough
and hitohing posts, to the arrangement
of vistas through the trees, light and
shade effects, and making the whole a
pleasing picture judiciously harmonized,
the task may be safely left TO the uni
form good taste OF American women
aided in the detail work by the men,

FlIiaI Love Of a Chinese Girl.

A letter frow Hangchow, China, says:
At the entrance to the villages snd at
various points q series of monuments
were met with, in shape resembling
large portal with smaller ones on each
side. These monuments are called by
the Chinese "pilaows." They are only
put up by especial favor of the emperor,
and serve to commemorate either the
virtuous action of some widow or vir-
gin, or else the deeds of a warrior.
Here is translation of the inscription
upon one of the tablets: "The people of
the Kashing Foo, having petitioned the
viceroy of Ming Che Shen (Cne Kiang
and Fob Kien provinces), and he hav-
ing humbly presented to our sacred
glance, for our especial pleasure, the
document, now 1 (the emperor) do COM
mand the erection of this pilaow for the
purpose of exhorting the people to deeds
of tilial piety. Tung Che, 1lth year, Sd
month";" Then follows the reason of
the pilaow being erected. Rendered
into English the story goes thus: In
the eighth year of Tung Che family
resided in Kashing Foo, consisting of
the parents, two sons and one daughter.
The two sons left their home t. go to
Tientsin for the purpose of trading.
The daughter meanwhile was betrothed,
but refused to get married while her
parents were alive, as she must attend
to their wants. The mother fell sick
and died, and shortly afterward the
father also fell i'll. The doctor informed
the daughter that nothing could save
her sire unless it was a decoction of
human flesh. The girl Immediately re-
solved to immediate herself upon the
altar of tilial piety, and, in strict con-
formance with the sacred edict, offered
herself for the sacrifice. She heroically
barred her arm, and allowed the doctors
to cut a portion of flesh from it. The
deeoction was made, but, alas, the old
man died and so did the daughter.
Now, the people upon learning this act
of devotion from the expectant bride,
resolved to present a memorial to the
viceroy in order to keep ever present the
virtuous conduct of this devoted girl

How the Clerk suffered.

After little dissertation on the
troubles and annoyances OF hotel clerks,
the San Francisco Call relates this anec-
dote: A recent visitor from Australia
was rather taken aback the other day
by the politeness of the clerk of the -
hotel, where he had taken up his quar-
ters. The day after his arrival, which
happened 10 be one of the windiest OF
the season, he went out for stroll
around the streets OF Frisco to sea the
sights and exhibit his linen-covered he'll
met He returned to the hotel disgusted,
and remarked to the clerk: You have
a great deal of dust here in San Fran

inquired the stranger. mo, sir"
Your lungs are affected, thelp" Not
much," yawned the clerk. In W hat
way, then, do you suffer from the dustg"
asked the somewhat surprised Austria
lian. "By hearing about sixty times
an hour every fool who comes in here

The Swan.

The most graceful of all aquatic fowls
is but lit lie known in this country, ow-
ing, it may be said, to our utilitarian
ideas, and partly to the thought that
they will require much care. Our coun-
try is dotted with numberless sheets of
smooth, clear water, whose beautiful
surfaces would be rendered still more
beautiful by the addition of these beau
tiful birds. They will occupy the same
water with the geese and ducks, if
necessary. They remain nine-tenths of
the time in the water, sleeping there
through the mild weather, and, in fact,
until the lake freezes over. 1t is not
unusual for them, on a sudden change of
weather, to become so surrounded by
ice that it is necessary to break it up to
free them. Their favorite feed is grass,
bread, grass, or small, tender corn leaves.
For winter keeping all that is needed is
a warm room, giving them a large tub
of water, little bread, cabbage leaves,
etc.
The female deposits her eggs early in
the spring, rarely more than two, but in
exceptional cases six to eight in number.
The eggs are larger than those of geese
even, and it takes thirty-five days of
steady work to bring out the young ones,
or cygnets, as they are called. They are
verv hardy. and require no care but that
of the parents.
Their tiesn is very delicate, but cpl
cures rarely get taste of it in this coun
try. They go in pairs and live thus
more peaceably than when left in large
numbers. These birds are very long
lived, numerous instances are given of
their living even to 100 years. They are
much less troublesome about the place
than the gaudy peacock. We trust that
we may yet see in many of our private
grounds more of these beautiful birds.

A NaM I.nnPh-

A sarcastic lady writes thus relieves
her mind and gives the girls a hint :
The new laugh goes like this: "Te-he,
te-he! Ha, ha, hal Oh! h-ha, ha. hal"
The directions are as follows: A low
and SLY beginning is made with the
"te-he," as though mirth was strug-
Cling inside to break out through maid
emily reserve, and the mouth is kept
tightly closed, while the eyes are opened
wide, thus giving an expression of min
gled occurrences and mischievousness.
Then follows the "Ha ha-ha," higher
and louder, with parting of the lips to
show the teeth, if they be white and
regular The "Oh-h-h" comes next in
tone of surprise, reprOof or artless
gayety, according to the nature OF the
thing laughed at, and the voice rises
into pretty little sore am. The ensuing
pause covers a sudden sense of the i'm
propriety of making so much noise, the
eyes are cast down, aud blush can in
most instances be produced by holding
the breath, with the lungs very fully
inflated. The final Ha-ha-ha" is given
as Il crescendo, spiritedly, and without
any show of restraint, like the outburst-
ing hilarity of an unconventional milk
maid. This novelty in laughs is heard
everywhere in the metropolis, and is
sure 10 become popular at the summer
resorts With little alteration it can
be made to fit any mouth.

Trapped.

There is a story told of lady and
gentleman travelling together on an Eng
lish railroad. They were strangers to
each other. Suddenly the gentleman
said:
Madam, will trouble you to look
out of the window for few minutes;
am going to make some changes in my
wearing apparel"
Certainly, sir" she replied, with
great politeness, rising and turning her
back upon him.
In very short time he said:
"NoW, madam, my change is COM
pleted, and you may resume your own
seat"
When the lady turned she beheld her
male companion transformed into a
dashing lady with veil over her tace.
Now, sir, or madam, whichever you
like" said the lady, q must trouble
you TO look out of the window, for l
also have some changes TO make in my
apparel"
Certainly, madam" :" and the gentle
man in lady's attire Immediately COM
pied.
"Now, sir, you may resume your own
seat"
To his great surprise, on resuming his
seat, the gentleman in female attire
found his lady companion transformed
into a man. He laughed loudly and
said:
ut appears that we are both anxious
to avoid recognition. What have you
done? l have robbed bank"
"And l." said the Whilom lady, as he
dexterously fettered his companion s
wrists with a pair of handouts, "am

And round his homely porch is seen
The honeysuckle twining.
When banks OF bloom their sweetness yielc
To bees that gather honey,
He drives the team across the field,
Where skies are warm and sunny.
The blackbird clucks behind the plow,
The quail pipes loud and clearly

The gray old barn, whose doors nlold,
His ample store in measure,
More rich than heaps OF boarded gold,
A precious, blessed treasure;

The sweetest rose on all his lands;

eagerly, running across the room that
she might cling to the lappels of his

the brutal man, "you can do a great

and increases each day. The phos-

There is no such thing as safe prophecy
concerning the direction ambition will
finally take. The writer remembers heay-
ing, some years ago, Mt the commence
ment exercises of private academy in
this city the graduating Grafton of a young
man who had taken the 'business course"
in which the beauties Of book. keeping
were lauded in fashion that would have
astopished many devoted xpert in the
art. II was really refreshing to find that
youth could lend so much of enthusiasm
and poetic glow to pursuit which seems
to those outside its mysteries
one Of the driest Gltal, and we felt that
when this young man silu uCrCd down into
a comprehension OF the realities Of life,
his enthusiasm would probably be sus-
tanning force ju lending q sense of enjoy
ment, or at least satisfaction, to his duties
after they had ceased to Ae poetic, That
he would, however, find IN accounts
the felA for his efforts and ambition, we
/ liu IJl NOdhA.
Since that time :hnt young man has
achieved distinction in ways widely sepa-
rate from bookkeeping, and the accounts he
appears most familiar with are newspaper
accounts of his own bad achievements He
got married, took to drinking and fas'
ways, got out of employment, enlisted
in the regular army and deserted, deserted
his wife and family also, got arrested fol-
trying to sell his 10y, eaus back to vii
mington and was again arrested for trying
to kidnap the same boy (who had beel
restored to his mother) and he is now in
new scrspe. The last chapter, thus far
in the career of this youthful devotee t,
bookkeeping is chronicled in the sccoun
of the arrest of Norris G. PGss as deserte
in New York, Mt the instance Of woma
who wanted him to marry her, doubles
= not knowing that he had wife already
Yet this man was regarded by his teacher
and earlier employers az bright, stead
young fellow, full of promise and, so ia
as has ever appeared, no particular caus
existed for his fall into evil waya. Ho,
can II be accounted for2
