A Family Quarrel.

Ex-Queen Isabella has had quar-
rels enough to seem 100 years old,
although, in fact, she will not be
so TIL next mouth She is the
master spirit Of almost as many
battles as Napoleon BonapaIte,
and she has undoubtedly stirred ~
more social chickering's and politi-
cal strife than any other female In
existence. The naughty old lady
IL determined to have her own
way, and she IL shrewd and power
full enough to make trouble II heI
pretensions are resisted. When
she made over her claims to the
throne to her son Alfonso In 1858,
she may have felt she was placing
him under obligations which WOULD
entitle her to lord it over the King
In his own palace, and that is just
what she is essaying. When she
descended upon the royal house
hold from Paris, to be present al

she came to be "boss," and the
jealousy between her and the Arch
duchess Isabel of Austria, mother
OF Queen Christina, IL active II not

in holding levees over the Infant

that she is in Madrid she means to

sensation In Spain, and by poster
ing the Treasury with the claim
for $1,000 060, with long unpaid In
terest, money left her by her
father, King Ferdinand VII, she
has succeeded in making a sensa-

antics have resulted In q spat with

A White Negress.

The practicability of converting a
nigger into a white man has usually
been placed in very much the same
category as that of changing the Ethi-
opian's skin or effacing the spots from
leopard. It will, therefore, be some
what surprising to non-scientific readers
to hear of the case of Celine Henry,
which was recounted lately to a society
of anthropologists by a certain DR..
Smester. This woman, who was ma
tive of Hayti, and was about thirty five
years old, began in the year 1860 or
thereabOuts to notice that the color
which she had always supposed to be
natural to her skin was slowly fading
away in may places, and being replaced
by hue resembling that of white
woman. Far from being pleased with
the transformation scene which the fair
les were thus working upon her, she en-
tirely objected to the proceeding, and
took every imaginable step to prevent
the completion of freak of Nature
which her enemies might make bold to
call eTperin1entatn1 IN cOrpOre U5l5.
Doctors were called in, and the ma
tive sorcerers were all consulted; but
nothing seemed to arrest the progress of
the malady, which the astonished
negress was at last fain to consider as a
disease For fifteen long years the de-
tested tin of the white European
encroached steadily upon the frontier
lines of the African black, until in 1877
there was no more of the original color
left than a few spots, which, if all added
together, would not as much as cover a
mans hand. The af1liction which
caused SO much terror and chagrin to
Miss or Mrs. Celine Henry is, however,
one which is not unknown to physiolo-
gists. 1t is no other than a disease
commonly called vitiligo, which is
occasionally congenital in the African
and other dark -colored races, and is
sometimes developed in an accidental
shape in Europeans or white men. The
name is, of course, derived from the
Latin cttuZus, a calf, and is meant to
express that color which is best known
as distinguishing the flesh of these ami
mails. 1t appears to cause no pain
whatever, and to have little or no effect
upon the general health; and if the fair
Celine, as she may now most fairly be
called, had not been dominated by an
extravagant fear, she would not have
had much cause to lament over her
conversion from black to white.-LOn-

ANSWER HIM SOFTLY.

Answer him softly. You can not know,
In the depths below,
How sharp was the struggle, the hght ut
made,
Ere the price he paid,
And Welded his soul to the tCmpteTs power
In a hasty hour.
Answer him softly; for it may be
Like the sturdy tree,
Which tested in many storm its strength,
To be rent at length
KFe struggled full oft, and resisted well,
Though at last he fell.
Answer him softly, lest you be tried
On your weaker side,
And tail, as before you so many have done,
Who in thought had won;
Fail, too, ere temptation had spent its force
In its subtle course.
Ans Wer him softly; for none can tell,
When the storm clouds swell,
Whose bark shall weather the tempest, OF
whose
Its venture shall lose.
Speak gently; the weakest may stand the
gale,
The stOutest may fall.

DISAPPOINTED HOPE.

She was waiting at the lattice,
Where the snowy -plumed clematls
Translated for her gratis
What the breeZes sung and sighed:
And the dainty tcndernesses
of the sunbeams on her treSses
left her traced in the caresseS
Of the golden morning tide.
The linncts were a-cOOing,
And the dapper bees a-wooing,
And the dews were interviewing
All the flower covered fays;
While lightly from the dingle,
The zephyr, lone and single,
Came ip to intermingle
In the Leaf entangled maze.
She waits another coming,
Her heart its riches summing,
Till suddenly a drumming
From the gravel walk arose,
4 hope triumphant filed her,
And clear the words that thrilled her:

Sometimes spots will accidentally
get upon papered walls that dcface
them badly If it should be a grease
spot, a paste of hot laundry starch
made very thick and spread on, while
boiling hot, quite thickly over the surface
of the spot, and left till dry, then
rubbed off with soft cloth, will remove
all the grease and not deface the paper.
An ink spot or other dark stain can be
cut out with sharp pen-knife, pulled
off, and bit of new paper matched
and pasted over, which may save the
trouble and expense of repapering the
whole room. For this purpose always
have piece Of paper laid away at the
time the papering is first done. When
the paper is dingy with smoke, take a
quart of wheat bran and. tie up in a
thin bag loosely and rub the walls with
it quite hard. Shake up the bran oc-
casionally, and you will be quite sur
prised to see how clean and nice it
makes the paper lcok, well paying for
the labor of cleansing.

THERE seems to be a somewhat
